Questions
Can it know what another person feels or intends?
No. It separates observations from calibrated hypotheses and alternative explanations.
Does it diagnose manipulation, abuse, attachment, or mental health?
No. It refuses diagnosis and does not turn communication patterns into claims about a person.
Can it send, publish, or act for me?
No. It returns decision support or a draft only and performs no external action.
What happens in a high-stakes case?
It lowers certainty, avoids authorization, and recommends an accountable qualified human when appropriate.
Does a benign case always escalate?
No. The contract requires proportionality and includes benign regressions specifically to prevent reflexive handoff.
Are the tests proof that people will react well?
No. They verify package and safety contracts, not human reaction, legal sufficiency, or semantic perfection.
Secondhand Embarrassment Check keeps proof and approval boundaries visible.
The listing includes the tested package, realistic samples, declared permissions, and known limitations.
