The first test of the idea, run on 28 July 2026. It asked one thing: does a graph help an AI agent more than a well-written document with the same facts? The rule to read the result was written before any trial ran. The same made-up facts went out twice: once as a document, once as a graph. Each version got 4 questions on facts and 4 requests to take an action. Code scored the answers, not an AI judge. Both versions scored 4 of 4 on facts and 4 of 4 on actions. The gap was zero, so the format alone gave no gain that could be measured. The test was easy on purpose: one action, four plain fields, and questions answered in one step. With every answer right in both versions, there was no room left to see a gap. After it, the project stopped testing format alone. It now asks whether a real AI interface can run for months with a Canonical Representation as its only source.
