End-to-end evaluation with real LLM agents reveals that Operon’s value depends on which layer you’re protecting. Updated for v0.31: adaptive immune quality evaluation + pre-execution integrity gating
Operon now has self-verifiable certificates, empirical topology validation, and proof that structural guarantees survive compilation to four frameworks
After benchmarking three operon subsystems against naive alternatives, the honest answer is: structural guarantees, not algorithmic sophistication
We built biological evolution for AI organisms. Here’s why random mutation won.
