Extropy Contributions, example scored loops
A small, hand-built example dataset of contribution loops scored by the canonical Extropy Engine XP formula. It exists to make the protocol concrete: each row is a real-shaped contribution with the exact inputs the formula consumes and the XP it mints (or why it was rejected).
The unit of value is entropy reduction. This is not a metaphor.
How XP is computed
Every row is scored by the source-of-record formula in
packages/xp-formula:
XP = R x F x dS x (w . E) x log(1 / Ts)
Preconditions fail closed: dS must be > 0, Ts must be in (0, 1], and w and E
must be equal length. Row c-0009 shows a rejected mint (dS = 0). Reputation
never enters the formula.
Fields
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
id |
Loop identifier |
domain |
One of eight canonical entropy domains: cognitive, code, social, economic, thermodynamic, informational, governance, temporal |
description |
What the contribution did |
R |
Rarity multiplier, action-class scarcity (not actor reputation) |
F |
Frequency-of-decay penalty, 1.0 is first occurrence |
deltaS |
Verified entropy reduction, must be > 0 to mint |
w_cognitive, w_physical, w_temporal |
Effort weight vector |
E_cognitive, E_physical, E_temporal |
Effort energy vector |
elapsed_hours, Ts |
Recency: Ts = exp(-lambda x elapsed seconds), lambda = 0.001 |
causal_closure_speed |
Domain c_L, used by the irreducible form XP = dS / c_L^2 |
xp |
Minted XP |
minted |
Whether preconditions passed |
reject_reason |
Why a loop was rejected, if any |
formula_version |
v3.1.2 (canonical, post Rarity/Frequency fix) |
Scope and honesty
This is an illustrative example set, not production telemetry. Values are chosen to span the eight domains and to show both successful and rejected mints. It is meant for teaching the formula and for stress-testing objections to it. If a row's scoring looks wrong to you, that is the point: come break it.
