Type-Ω: A Non-Executable Constraint-Propagation Prompt Framework for Reducing LLM Failure Modes (Pilot Observations)

Type-Ω: A Non-Executable Constraint-Propagation Prompt Framework for Reducing LLM Failure Modes (Pilot Observations) This work introduces Type-Ω, a non-executable, prompt-level framework for propagating behavioral constraints in large language models. The framework structures interaction through layered constraint externalization, aiming to reduce catastrophic failure modes such as context collapse and uncontrolled hallucinations in extended conversations. We report exploratory pilot observations across multiple commercial LLMs, where no Hard Failures were observed under the Type-Ω condition, while baseline prompt sessions frequently exhibited qualitative degradation. No claims of performance superiority are made. The full paper, framework description, and evaluation protocol are provided in the uploaded manuscript.
