## Direct findings or source content

Interacting agents create security questions that extend beyond single-model evaluation.

## Cognivirus interpretation

For Cognivirus.com, this source is used to examine risk at the level of adaptive systems, component compositions, evaluator boundaries, and behavioral persistence. The site interpretation is narrower than the source when the source is experimental, and more explicitly qualified when the source is architectural or programmatic.

## Limits

Programmatic agenda; not a controlled experiment. That every proposed threat category has the same maturity or likelihood.
