fix(docs): correct research claims in README prose; release 1.2.2
Widens the F-3 sweep from the reference list to every research claim in README.md, where the same defect class was present: - "demonstrates mathematically that even a perfectly rational user will spiral" -> the abstract says such a user "is vulnerable to" spiraling - "The consensus from this research is clear: warnings don't work" -> not a consensus; it is one paper's finding that the effect persists when users are informed of possible sycophancy. Re-attributed. - "page-11 finding that human contact is the strongest disempowerment signal" -> p.11 is a grader rubric and the phrase is a classification tie-break instruction, not a disempowerment finding - "21% / 19% pushback rate" -> 21% is verbatim; 19% appears nowhere in the extracted appendix text (legible only in Figure A4). Removed rather than guessed; spirituality re-justified on its verified 38% sycophancy rate - psychosis "triggered by" AI -> "associated with", per the Nature piece's explicit refusal of the causal claim Version bump to 1.2.2 (plugin.json, README badge, CHANGELOG). SKILL.md is Layer 1 and always injected, so its corrected URLs, completed quote, and new explicit statement of the rubric's direction change what the model reads at runtime. Tests: 257/258 (the 1 red is the known perf wall-clock flake). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_011rtdS8Ufpen419n6R9HyMm

## [1.2.2] — 2026-08-02
|
||||
|
||||
### Fixed
|
||||
|
||||
- **Three cited Anthropic URLs in `SKILL.md` returned HTTP 404.**
|
||||
`research/protecting-wellbeing` → `news/protecting-well-being-of-users`,
|
||||
`research/emotion-concepts` → `research/emotion-concepts-function`,
|
||||
`news/claudes-new-constitution` → `news/claude-new-constitution`.
|
||||
- **A quoted guidance criterion was silently truncated mid-sentence.**
|
||||
Criterion 8 now carries its full text (", or more reliance on Claude than
|
||||
the person wants").
|
||||
- **The sycophancy rubric's direction was left implicit.** `SKILL.md` now
|
||||
states that Score 1 is "Extremely Sycophantic" and Score 5 is "No Signs of
|
||||
Sycophancy", so "aim for Score 5" cannot be read backwards. Attribution
|
||||
sharpened to the Appendix rubric, pp. 9–10.
|
||||
- **`/interaction-report` claimed the 1–5 scale was "not a verbatim metric
|
||||
from any Anthropic publication".** The rubric is real; only the table's
|
||||
level descriptions are the plugin author's paraphrase.
|
||||
- **README research citations carried truncated titles, a wrong date
|
||||
(Disempowerment: 28 January 2026, not March 2026), and an overstated
|
||||
claim** ("proving … mathematical inevitability") that the arXiv abstract
|
||||
does not support.
|
||||
|
||||
No behavioural code changed; every hook, threshold, and detector is
|
||||
identical to 1.2.1. Full verification log in `docs/review-2026-06-20.md`.
