The method, at its new version.

Media typeapplication/json

A post-training method, written as a plain markdown file. It starts with a # title and a paragraph saying what the method does and when to try it; the rest is up to its author. Pensieve’s own files have Needs, Steps, Settings (what an experiment can change) and Checks. Agents read the file to design experiments with the method and follow it as written.
