Context Compilation
The missing systems layer between retrieval and reasoning, from benchmark blind spots to measured evidence.
In this series
All writing- The Benchmarks Are Lying to YouThe AI memory space has converged on benchmarks that measure retrieval — the easiest part of the problem. They don't test governance, safety, provenance, or compilation quality. Here's what's missing and why it matters.
- The Missing LayerContext Compilation Theory, Context IR, and the architecture between access and reasoning. How measuring benchmark gaps revealed a missing systems layer — and why it changes how we should build AI systems.
- The EvidenceEight metrics measured on a live system. The CRR journey from 48.6% to 100%. CompileBench: the benchmark that evaluates compilation decisions. And the open standard proposal.
