2025-12-29: Task Reasoning Breakthrough

Progress Update - Task Reasoning Works

What We Proved Today

EXP-004 Results: - 20 examples (12 identity + 8 tasks) - 10 epochs, 5 minutes training - Loss: 2.96 → 0.026 - 4/4 novel task scenarios handled correctly

The Recipe So Far

  1. 3D Format - / structure
  2. Natural thinking language - 'Let me think...', 'Chris is asking...'
  3. Combined training - Identity + Tasks in same dataset
  4. Scenario-based examples - Not just questions, but tasks with ambiguity

What's Working

  • Identity (LARS knows who it is)
  • Task decomposition (breaks down multi-step requests)
  • Storage reasoning (knows Context vs KB vs Track)
  • Ambiguity handling (searches or asks for clarity)

What Needs Work

  • Hallucination (makes up details not in training)
  • Base model knowledge interference
  • Actual tool execution (trained to reason, not execute yet)

Next Bricks in the Foundation

  1. More task examples with real Nexus tool references
  2. Gateway infrastructure on AI server
  3. Test on 14B model (scaling check)
  4. Self-learning experiments (read → comprehend → update)

Key Insight

The 3D format works for BOTH identity AND operational reasoning. The thinking process is transferable across task types. This is the foundation we can build on.
