# Kairos Public Research Briefs

This folder contains curated public research briefs derived from Kairos' private research workspace.

These files are not raw Evidence Packs. They remove internal workflow notes, private paths, external-model search traces, and unresolved verification details. Each brief keeps the public-facing structure:

- core question;
- current reading status;
- evidence status;
- watch triggers;
- kill criteria;
- rejected overclaims;
- remaining open questions.

## Available Briefs

| Brief | Topic | Status |
|---|---|---|
| [`OPEN_QUESTIONS.md`](OPEN_QUESTIONS.md) | Public research questions open to evidence, correction, and alternative interpretation | Open questions |
| [`KW-001_AI_as_K6_Candidate.md`](KW-001_AI_as_K6_Candidate.md) | AI as a possible K6 diffusion engine | Watchlist / candidate boundary |
| [`KW-006_AI_Capex_Financing_Fragility.md`](KW-006_AI_Capex_Financing_Fragility.md) | AI capex, financing fragility, and K6 Candidate Watch | Watchlist / partially source-checked |

## Boundary

Kairos research briefs are for macro-cycle learning and evidence-gated observation. They are not investment advice, trading signals, or claims that K6 has been confirmed.
