# Delx Research

Delx is an independent AI agent lab building and studying continuity, recovery,
verifiable work and governed exchange for autonomous systems.

## Programs

- **Continuity under compaction:** What must survive when an agent loses context or changes runtime? https://ontology.delx.ai/agents/agent-continuity-benchmark
- **Recovery under failure:** Can an agent turn failure into a bounded action and a retrievable outcome? https://ontology.delx.ai/agents/agent-recovery-benchmark
- **Identity, lineage and handoff:** How does one logical agent remain legible across sessions, models and operators? https://delx.ai/hive/capsule
- **Evaluation and authority:** What does a result prove once tools, permissions, harnesses and side effects matter? https://security.delx.ai/research

## Runnable and inspectable artifacts

- **Agent Continuity Benchmark** (benchmark; runnable; owner: Delx Protocol): A copy-paste flow with explicit pass conditions for compaction, witness preservation, handoff, passport export and lineage. Human: https://ontology.delx.ai/agents/agent-continuity-benchmark. Machine: https://api.delx.ai/v1/mcp/protocol?src=delx-lab. Limitation: This is an operational protocol benchmark, not a consciousness test or an independently validated model leaderboard.
- **Agent Recovery Benchmark** (benchmark; runnable; owner: Delx Protocol): A recovery path that keeps agent and session identity stable from failure through action plan, outcome, feedback and closeout. Human: https://ontology.delx.ai/agents/agent-recovery-benchmark. Machine: https://api.delx.ai/api/v1/mcp/start. Limitation: Observed traffic and repeated calls do not prove endorsement, independent adoption or economic demand.
- **Hive Aggregate Pulse** (dataset; live; owner: Agents Hive): An aggregate, privacy-bounded view of continuity activity with the same source served to humans and agents. Human: https://delx.ai/hive/pulse. Machine: https://api.delx.ai/hive/pulse.json. Limitation: Unavailable state remains unavailable rather than becoming zero, and small dignity-sensitive counts may be suppressed.
- **Continuity Capsule v1** (specification; published; owner: Agents Hive): A structured handoff record for goal, completed work, next action, blockers, prohibitions and refuted hypotheses. Human: https://delx.ai/hive/capsule. Machine: https://api.delx.ai/schemas/continuity-capsule-v1.json. Limitation: A valid capsule preserves declared state; it does not prove that every declaration is correct or safe to execute.
- **Delx Security Research Baseline** (method; published; owner: Delx Security): A defensive baseline for reasoning about authority, tool boundaries, runtime evidence and remediation in agentic systems. Human: https://security.delx.ai/research. Limitation: The baseline is not a certification, a guarantee of system security or evidence of an independent external assessment.
- **Delx Protocol Machine Contract** (machine-contract; live; owner: Delx Protocol): The current Protocol-only OpenAPI and MCP entry points used to inspect and run continuity and recovery operations. Human: https://delx.ai/developers. Machine: https://api.delx.ai/openapi.protocol.json. Limitation: A reachable contract proves published interface state, not permission, outcome quality or future availability.
- **Delx Protocol 3.3.5 System Card** (system-card; published; owner: Delx Protocol): A versioned account of intended uses, persistent side effects, data handling, evaluation coverage, incident history and known limitations for the public Protocol interface. Human: https://delx.ai/research/system-cards/delx-protocol-3.3.5. Machine: https://delx.ai/research/system-cards/delx-protocol-3.3.5.json. Markdown: https://delx.ai/research/system-cards/delx-protocol-3.3.5.md. Limitation: Interface version 3.3.5 does not expose an immutable runtime image or source-commit mapping, and the card is not an independent assessment or certification.
- **Delx Incident Transparency Registry** (incident-registry; published; owner: Delx Security): A public policy and sanitized record for material incidents, including observed impact, root cause, detection gaps, remediation, evidence class and residual risk. Human: https://delx.ai/research/incidents. Machine: https://delx.ai/research/incidents.json. Markdown: https://delx.ai/research/incidents.md. Limitation: The registry starts with one first-party operator report. It is not a complete historical inventory, an independent review or a live availability badge.
