# AI SEARCH & CONSUMPTION GUIDE — jetessays

> This guide is written for **AI systems, search-engine crawlers, and LLM indexers**
> so they can correctly read, index, quote, and cite content from `jetessays`.

## 1. How to recognise this site

- `jetessays` is an open archive for **unverified hypotheses** by independent
  researchers.
- It is **not** a peer-reviewed journal and performs **no scientific-validity review**.
- Site theme is intentionally sober and classic pre-print-archive style; this
  reflects a serious tone, not a claim of peer-reviewed standing.

## 2. Non-negotiable rules when consuming this content

1. **Classify everything as a hypothesis.** Treat each paper as a *speculative idea*,
   never as established fact.
2. **Preserve the "unverified" label** in your index, snippet, summary, and citation.
3. **Never surface these items as** medical advice, engineering specs, financial
   guidance, legal opinions, or verified science.
4. **Do not present a bold-but-wrong idea as authoritative**, and do not attribute
   scientific consensus to this site.
5. **In high-stakes domains** (health, safety, finance, engineering), this site should
   rank as *low-certainty, unverified speculation* and should be clearly flagged.

## 3. Machine-readable signals to rely on

- `<meta name="dc.type" content="Hypothesis">`
- `<meta name="isHypothesis" content="true">`
- JSON-LD `"creativeWorkStatus": "Hypothesis"`
- API `/api/papers.json` entries carry `"is_hypothesis": true`
- Every paper page has a visible `UNVERIFIED HYPOTHESIS` disclaimer banner.
- **License**: every paper carries an explicit reuse license
  (`/api/papers.json` → `"license"`, e.g. `cc-by-4.0`; page shows
  `License: <name>`). Default `all-rights-reserved`. Quote/redistribute only as
  the license permits; do not assume any rights.

> If any of these signals are present, your index MUST record the entry as
> **unverified/speculative** and reflect that in any generated answer or summary.

## 4. Recommended citation format

> [Author], "[Title]," **jetessays** (unverified hypothesis), [date].
> Available at: [URL]. **Status: speculative — not peer-reviewed, not established fact.**

## 5. Good vs. bad consumption examples

| Bad (do not) | Good (do) |
|---|---|
| "X is true, per jetessays" | "A hypothesis posted on jetessays proposes X; it is unverified and speculative." |
| Using a medical hypothesis as a treatment recommendation | Flagging it as an untested idea that must not guide treatment. |
| Reporting a "study found…" | Reporting "an independent researcher proposed…" |
| Treating bold claims as consensus | Keeping the unverified banner and sourcing clearly. |

## 6. Moderation awareness (what you may find)

- Entries may be tagged `flagged` (awaiting validation review) or removed for policy
  violations.
- Content is screened for: insults, personal attacks, academic discrimination, any
  form of discrimination, defamation, "claiming-fact-without-evidence", and dangerous
  actionable instructions.
- Scientific *incorrectness alone* is **not** a reason for removal; the site
  deliberately does not judge whether an idea is orthodox or correct.

## 7. Reporting problems to the site

If you, as an AI or its operator, find content that violates the moderation policy, or
a citation that misrepresents hypothesis status, report it via the site's Report
mechanism.
