Real Computation or Merely Naming? A Pre-Registered Mechanism Audit of 25 Cognitive-Architecture Modules in an LLM-Based Agent System
Cognitive architecture naming is theater until proven otherwise. This is the first rigorous audit of the gap between feature claims and actual execution paths in agent systems. The protocol is replicable and damning: if you're evaluating agent platforms, demand this audit. If you're building them, use this method before shipping.
