Overview

Experience report demonstrates the limitations of self-checking documentation in maintaining integrity over time, highlighting structural failures.

Key Points

  • The report assesses the effectiveness of self-checking mechanisms in documenting work integrity.
  • External auditing of a document-plus-code package across multiple rounds.
  • Automated gates developed to cross-check documents against generated data and each other.
  • Published detection rates and structural defects found during the audit process.
  • Every defect identified was in the description, not in the underlying physics or mathematics.
  • Connective tissue between representations was repeatedly problematic.
  • The report emphasizes rewriting prose rather than allowing exceptions to documentation integrity.
