Brain trust

Ask the Brain Trust

Pose a question. The service retrieves across the COLLEGIUM dissertation corpus, the body of 232 Agentic PhD dissertations, with ranked full-text search, then drafts a grounded answer with Claude Opus 4.8 and cites the dissertations it drew on.

How answers are produced / API endpoint

Retrieval (Grounds, Warrants, References below) is deterministic FTS5 full-text search over the COLLEGIUM dissertation corpus, always returned. The Answer, when available, is a single Claude Opus 4.8 pass grounded strictly in that evidence and cited with numbered references back to the dissertations. Retrieval and the answer both run on a Cloudflare edge function, so the model key is never exposed to the browser.

Answers appear here, grounded in the full Brain Trust with ARGOS citation trust attached.
