Abstract

Release 1.3 of the AUGMANITAI core vocabulary: 121 bilingual (English/German) terms. Release 1.3 adds the first terms of two MANITAI dimensions: BRAMANITAI, experience at the brain–computer interface (17 terms based on an analysis of published first-person accounts, for example setup weight, hold weariness, unmeant output, handed start, effort fade, day-to-day feel of control), and ENTMANITAI, artificial entities as counterparts (19 terms, for example parallel counterpart, entity boundary blur, self-description gap, unverified mandate, persona residue, successor attribution, fluid entity, intent anchor, pull to the mean). Terms of earlier releases are unchanged; their frozen version 1 stays as published. New in this release: each new term links to its MANITAI dimension (dct:subject, https://w3id.org/augmanitai/manitai//; register: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.23411689), and a first set of SKOS mappings to Wikidata in SSSOM, Turtle and JSON-LD connects terms to established concepts (closeMatch, broadMatch, relatedMatch; no exactMatch). Every term has a persistent identifier under https://w3id.org/augmanitai/lexicon/ and a frozen version identifier ( /v1). Each entry gives a definition, a delimitation from neighbouring terms, a plain-language reading, a reading for language models and software agents (rules, record fields and a testable condition), notes for standards bodies and organisations, and a citation. Formats: JSON-LD (schema.org DefinedTermSet and SKOS), Turtle (SKOS), JSON Lines (one term per line). A SHA-256 manifest lists every file. Licence: CC BY 4.0.

The impact of agile practices on communication in software development

The study shows that agile practices improve both informal and formal communication, but indicates that, in larger development situations involving multiple external stakeholders, a mismatch of adequate communication mechanisms can sometimes even hinder the communication.

Formally verifying agent-written full-stack web apps with PDD Kit

AI agents can generate code at a scale that’s hard for humans to review line-by-line. PDD Kit helps ensure the code is doing what the developer intended by creating formal specifications and testing against them. It converts developer intent into a Verus specification, proves AI-generated code meets it for every input, and uses tests where proofs aren't practical. Developers review intent, not every line.
