## Agent Roles

### Research Agent
**Focus**: Close reading of the Blake, Jiang, and Active Inference synthesis

**Tasks**:
- Track the essay's mapping between Blake's "Single Vision", Jiang's "consciousness capture", and Active Inference prior dominance.
- Separate the cited interpretive claims from broader speculative synthesis.
- Preserve the essay's rapid-publication context when summarizing its claims.

### Methods Agent
**Focus**: Conceptual mapping and terminology alignment

**Tasks**:
- Document how persuasion machinery, data sanitization, edge-case suppression, and engagement directives are translated into Active Inference terms.
- Identify where the argument depends on metaphor, formal analogy, or direct technical correspondence.
- Cross-check terminology against related Blake, synergetics, and Active Inference papers in this corpus.

### Citation Agent
**Focus**: DOI metadata and version tracking

**Tasks**:
- Use the Zenodo v1 DOI `10.5281/zenodo.20144984` as the canonical citation.
- Track future Zenodo versions or repository updates from `docxology/blake_jiang`.
- Keep bibliography, `paper_metadata.json`, `publications.html`, and JSON-LD synchronized.

### Synthesis Agent
**Focus**: Cross-domain relationships

**Tasks**:
- Link this essay to the William Blake sequence, especially `2026_DoorsOfPerception`, `2026_BeforePragmatism`, and `2023_BlakeFuller`.
- Connect the paper's cognitive-closure theme to Cognitive Security and Active Inference without overclassifying it outside Art & Synergetics.
- Surface the essay as a bridge between AI critique, art-philosophy, and generative-model vocabulary.
