Knowledge snapshots and source scope

The Chinese and English Chapter 1/2 PDFs and AI collaboration resources are collected at /en/ai/build-your-own. Chapter PDFs support full reading and offline archiving; the AI pack transfers public website knowledge. They are separate downloads. Browsing needs neither a download nor programming.

Current articles record page-specific adoption of final combined manuscript ASD-BOOK-ddbade997b45. The four public Chapter 1/2 PDFs remain independent existing artifacts with unchanged checksums; website migration does not make them chapters or final English translations of this combined edition. The AI pack carries published website adaptations, conditions and source identities, not the complete final manuscript file.

ASD Researcher helps you locate passages, trace equations and premises, examine arguments, and carry an open problem into a research task. Reading the website requires no download.

The collaboration knowledge pack is a portable copy of public texts, equations, sources, rules and tasks for use in another AI environment. It is not a website update: unpacking this ZIP into the GitHub website project does not update the site.

The online workspace reports its actual capabilities. Retrieval and context export remain available without a connected model. Downloading the pack does not connect a model or transfer subscriptions or API credits.

First decide whether you want to read one article, resume one research session elsewhere, or build a broader reference collection. These downloads are not interchangeable.

• Collaboration knowledge pack — Download ASD_AI_Research_Pack.zip, unzip it, and select the relevant texts, rules and checks for reading or an AI. Select the ZIP in the public download center; chapter PDFs are not included in it.
• Single-page content — The MDX download on an article preserves its source. Ordinary Markdown readers may not expand MDX components. knowledge/markdown/ in the pack provide readable exports.
• Markdown / JSON research record — Export the current question, retrieved passages and notes from Researcher. This is not the whole knowledge pack; it saves this record without publishing or submitting it. Save drafts you need before refreshing.
• Website engineering update — Files under upload/ in an engineering delivery go to the corresponding GitHub paths according to that delivery’s instructions. They update website code and content; they are not the AI collaboration knowledge pack.

These tools are optional for automated checking or retrieval. With Python installed, run python tools/verify.py from the extracted folder to verify manifest byte sizes and SHA-256 values. This checks file integrity, not theoretical correctness.

With Node.js 20 or newer, run node tools/search.mjs "ASD-PRED-001". It searches the included public corpus without calling a model or requiring credentials. knowledge/*.json is intended for program import; evaluation/cases.json supports batch testing, while answer support still requires review.

Start with README and the relevant topic Markdown; use other files as needed. Groups and statistics below come from the generated manifest. A site knowledge snapshot pins a set of public content; individual theory modules retain their own versions and source snapshots.

The pack contains public website texts, equations, source manifests, rules, evaluation questions and research tasks. It excludes model weights, originating-account memory, private conversations, unpublished full manuscripts, credentials and unpublished measurements. A source manifest identifies a manuscript; it does not imply the manuscript file is included.

Canonical identifies a formal version; it does not guarantee correctness. Publication on the website, a ledger entry or an exported draft does not establish scholarly publication. New work should retain its sources, assumptions and review/submission history.

Downloading does not grant a new republication, adaptation or commercial licence. Preserve authorship, sources and versions, consult /license, and obtain any further permission required.

After exporting a research record, you may send it yourself to [email protected]; first review the sources, draft and personal information, then manually attach the exported file or provide a sharing link in your own email client. Downloading, exporting or composing an email does not mean the author has received it. Correspondence and unpublished material do not automatically enter the public website, AI knowledge base or collaboration packs. Discuss and confirm permission before public quotation.
