Temporal Discount Arbitrage Detector

Ki · Reasoning

The Problem

Assumes a single discount rate for all future costs, ignoring potential temporal horizon mismatch.

The Operation

This cognitive operation forces the model to identify all stakeholders and subsystems in the decision. For each, determine its implicit time horizon for evaluating costs and benefits. If any two horizons differ by >3x, flag temporal discount mismatch. Identify who benefits from short-horizon action at long-horizon actors' expense. Normalize all costs and benefits to a single explicit time horizon and recalculate.

The Structure

Under the hood, the reasoning follows a sensitivity perturbation grid that systematically varies inputs to find where the conclusion breaks. The procedure repeats until diminishing returns trigger an exit.

If a trade-off between present and future value is made without examining whether the discount rate used is consistent, temporal discount arbitrage detection was omitted.

Cross-Domain Suppression

In Haki mode, the API retrieves the primary ability first, then fans out to three synergy roles that compound its reasoning.

PrimarySI-032Temporal Discount Arbitrage Detector

When retrieved in Haki mode, the primary ability is augmented with failure guards extracted from 3 abilities in different cognitive domains. Each guard blocks a specific reasoning failure the primary alone wouldn't catch. A self-check forces verification before output. The result is cross-domain coverage that no single ability can reach alone.
