R0021/2026-03-25/Q006 — ACH Matrix¶
Matrix¶
| H1: Formally applied | H2: Not applied | H3: Adjacent, not prompt-specific | |
|---|---|---|---|
| SRC01-E01: deliberate.codes blog uses RFC 2119 for AI agents | + | -- | ++ |
| SRC02-E01: RFC 2119 scope includes "limiting harmful behavior" | N/A | N/A | + |
Legend: ++ Strongly supports · + Supports · -- Strongly contradicts · - Contradicts · N/A Not applicable
Diagnosticity Analysis¶
Most Diagnostic Evidence¶
| Evidence ID | Why Diagnostic |
|---|---|
| SRC01-E01 | The only published example, discriminating between H2 (not applied) and H1/H3 (applied). Its scope (AI agent specs, not prompt engineering) discriminates between H1 and H3. |
Outcome¶
Hypothesis supported: H3 — RFC 2119 applied to AI-adjacent specifications but not to prompt engineering as commonly practiced.
Hypotheses eliminated: H2 — At least one published example exists.
Hypotheses inconclusive: H1 — The single example is a blog post, not a formal standard.
