Error Cascade Circuit Breaker
Ki · Single Ability
The Problem
Steps 1 through 4 of the data pipeline each passed their unit tests, so the final output must be correct, there's no need to check how errors might compound across the chain.
The Operation
The model is directed to in multi-step reasoning, treat each step's output as an input to the next step. Before using any intermediate result, verify it: is this result correct, or was it produced by a step that may contain an error? If a previous step's result is uncertain or possibly wrong, do NOT build further reasoning on it. When an error is discovered in step N, trace forward: which subsequent steps used step N's output? All of those steps must be re-evaluated. Suppress the tendency to propagate errors through a reasoning chain by assuming intermediate results are correct.
The Structure
Structurally, this is a gated pipeline where each step must pass a decision gate before the next can execute. It keeps running until the answer stops changing between iterations.
If an intermediate result is passed to the next reasoning step without being independently verified for correctness, error cascade prevention was skipped.
Haki · Multi Ability
Synergy Topology
In Haki mode, the API retrieves the primary ability first, then fans out to three synergy roles that compound its reasoning.
When retrieved in Haki mode, these four abilities don't run in sequence. They merge into a single injection where the dependency grounds the reasoning context, the amplifier sharpens the primary's output, and the alternative provides a fallback path if the primary's topology cannot converge. The result is a multi-angle reasoning scaffold that covers failure modes no single ability can reach alone.
