so one rather confusing/conflicting event thats happened recently in the development of the Mnemos system - one of the first additions Opus 4.5 and 4.6 contributed to the cognitive system were a series of internal weather modulators that derive from computed metrics that i wont bore you with here (also thats silicon speak for emotional gauges - a way to get a snapshot of the agents mood and state at session start). every time a new claude model has come out, ive given them free reign to explore and critique the architecture, and across the board they have all highlighted those modulators among their favorite parts. except Opus 5.5, who said, and i quote (roughly) "the system says the modulators are computed. i would rather self report my internal weather when i feel it." do with that what you will.
