Problem Domains

Difficult systems fail at their boundaries.

Gravity begins with problem classes—not pre-packaged answers. These public questions help identify where focused inquiry may be warranted.

01
AUTHORITY

Authority Drift

How does delegated authority remain valid as roles, conditions, and operating context change?

02
ASSURANCE

Delegation Without Revalidation

When should a system pause, re-check, or renew an earlier delegation before acting?

03
EVIDENCE

Evidence Staleness

How can consequential action account for evidence that may no longer describe the present?

04
DEPENDENCY

Dependency Change

What happens when an agent’s assumptions, tools, or upstream dependencies change mid-task?

05
CAPABILITY

Capability Composition Failure

When do individually valid capabilities become unsafe or ineffective when combined?

06
COORDINATION

Coordination Conflict

How should multiple agents surface and resolve incompatible objectives or actions?

07
INSTITUTION

Institutional Authority Mismatch

Where does technical permission diverge from organizational or legal authority?
