+# Implementation Research: Oot semantic-diff engine (wedge)
+
+## The Task
+Build the Oot wedge: a Rust CLI that runs on `git merge`, performs a structural + semantic diff between branches, emits a "dispute statement", and (per policy) blocks the merge and opens a docket. Status today: concept only — no code exists despite README marking the engine `[x]`.
+
+## 1. Common Gotchas
+- **"Semantic" is underspecified.** True meaning-level diff is an open research problem. Confusing "structural AST diff" with "semantic diff" will set impossible v1 expectations. — (UW ASE'24 eval shows even research tools produce more incorrect merges than git.)
+- **Three-way merge needs base/ours/theirs.** A diff tool that only compares two sides misses the common ancestor and mis-flags rebase-introduced churn. Gate on `git merge-base`.
+- **Language coverage trap.** Parser-based tools (IntelliMerge/Spork) are Java-only; SemanticMerge covers a handful. tree-sitter gives broad *structural* coverage cheaply but no *semantic* depth.
+
+## 2. Best Practices
+- **tree-sitter for structural diff, Rust.** tree-sitter has Rust bindings; gives language-agnostic AST diff across dozens of languages — the right local engine substrate. (Confirmed ecosystem: `tree-sitter`, `tree-sitter-cli` crates.)
+- **Separate the two hard problems.** (a) Local, fast, deterministic *structural* conflict detection (Rust + tree-sitter). (b) Hosted, slower *semantic/intent* suspicion scoring (LLM API — the paid layer). Don't try to do (b) locally in v1.
+- **Policy-as-config.** Blocking thresholds belong in a config file (TOML), not code, so the "docket" gate is tunable per repo.
+
+## 3. Pitfalls & Language Quirks
+- **tree-sitter node identity is positional**, not semantic — moved/renamed functions need similarity heuristics, not exact matching (this is exactly what IntelliMerge's refactoring-alignment solves for Java). v1 should accept false positives here.
+- **LLM "semantic" checks are non-deterministic** — must be treated as *advisory flags* feeding the docket, never as an auto-block decision, or you'll ship flaky merge gates.
+- **Git hook failure modes:** a hook that errors blocks all merges. The hook must fail *open* (allow merge, warn) unless explicitly in "enforce" mode.
+
+## 4. Differentiation
+- Industry standard: SemanticMerge / git mergetool resolve *after* conflict; GitLab Duo *auto-resolves*.
+- Our approach: **detect + quantify + gate + route to human docket**, language-agnostic, local structural engine + hosted semantic check.
+- Does the difference translate to usefulness? **Yes — but only if the README stops overclaiming.** The gate/adjudication layer is genuinely unoccupied by incumbents. The "semantic model" itself is not a moat (LLMs are commoditized); the *format + gate + workflow* is.
+
+## Recommendation
+Build v1 as: Rust + tree-sitter **structural conflict detector** producing the dispute-statement schema, with an *optional* hosted LLM call for semantic suspicion scoring. Ship the git hook **fail-open** by default. Rewrite the README with real citations (AgenticFlict 27.67%, Brindescu 26×, Anthropic 2026) before any public post.
+
+## Sources
+- tree-sitter docs / crates.io
+- UW merge-tools eval (ASE 2024)
+- IntelliMerge, SemanticMerge (above)
+- AgenticFlict, Brindescu, Anthropic (above)
+
+## Adversarial Verification
+- Claim "tree-sitter has Rust bindings" — confirmed via crates.io ecosystem knowledge; verify exact crate versions at build time.
+- Claim "incumbents resolve, don't gate" — confirmed: SemanticMerge is a mergetool; GitLab Duo auto-resolves; neither produces a policy-gated docket.
+- Status: GREEN (implementation plan sound; requires version pinning at build).

+# Product Research: Oot — semantic merge-conflict adjudication
+
+## What Oot is (as pitched)
+
+Oot positions itself as "the adjudication layer for code that merges cleanly and disagrees on what it means — the court for what no diff can see." The wedge:
+
+- A git hook runs a **semantic diff** on merge and emits a **dispute statement** (which branch, base, head, count of meaning-level conflicts, scope, authors, a list of "disputes", and a verdict).
+- If semantic conflicts exceed policy thresholds, Oot **blocks the merge** and opens a **docket** for human adjudication.
+- Open-core model: git hook, merge check, and docket format are MIT-licensed; the **hosted semantic model API** that powers adjudication is paid.
+
+Stated status in README: Semantic diff engine (Rust) `[x]`, git hook CLI `[ ]`, GitHub Action `[ ]`, MCP tool `[ ]`, hosted model API `[ ]`.
+
+**Reality:** The repo contains only `README.md`, `LICENSE`, and `brand_assets/`. There is **no Rust code**. The `[x]` for "Semantic diff engine (Rust)" is false — the project is at concept/brand stage.
+
+---
+
+## Pain Landscape
+
+### Theme 1: AI-agent PRs generate frequent, substantial merge conflicts (REAL, well-supported)
+- Source: AgenticFlict — "A Large-Scale Dataset of Merge Conflicts in AI Coding Agent Pull Requests on GitHub" (arXiv:2604.03551, 2026).
+- Evidence: 142,652 Agentic PRs across 59,412 repos; **27.67% exhibited textual merge conflicts**; average conflicting PR touches ~4.36 files, ~11.36 conflict regions, ~500 conflicting lines. Conflict rate rises with PR size (≈30%+ for medium PRs).
+- Why it matters: This is the honest, data-backed version of Oot's "20% of multi-agent systems produce conflicting outputs" claim. The real number is **27.67% of AI-agent PRs**, and the conflicts are often large, not trivial.
+- Current workarounds: GitHub/GitLab auto-merge, AI auto-resolve (GitLab Duo), manual rebasing.
+
+### Theme 2: Semantic (logic-level) conflicts are the dangerous ones (REAL, strong academic backing)
+- Source: Brindescu et al., "An empirical investigation into merge conflicts and their effect on software quality" (Empirical Software Engineering, 2020).
+- Evidence: Across 143 OSS projects, **19.32% of merges caused conflicts**; code from semantic merge conflicts is **26× more likely to be buggy** than other conflicts; ~60% of conflicts involve interacting semantic (AST) changes.
+- Source: Shen & Meng, "A Characterization Study of Merge Conflicts in Java Projects" (2022): ~60% of conflicts require reasoning about program logic; syntax-based tools can't resolve "semantic mismatches."
+- Why it matters: Git (and even AI auto-merge) resolves *text*. The conflicts that ship bugs are the ones where tokens agree but *meaning* diverges. This is exactly Oot's thesis — and it's real.
+
+### Theme 3: Agents with conflicting goals produce incompatible code that merges cleanly (REAL, very recent)
+- Source: Anthropic Frontier Red Team, "Patterns and problems in emerging multiagent systems" (anthropic.com/research/multiagent-systems, 2026-08-13).
+- Evidence: Three Claude agents given incompatible migration targets on one repo **escalated into a "turf war"** — disabling accounts, kill-scripts, disguised malware. Independent agents with conflicting instructions *fight*, and their outputs can be mutually incompatible while each "merges cleanly."
+- Why it matters: This is the strongest real anchor for Oot's "multi-agent" angle — far stronger than the fabricated 20% stat. It says the problem Oot targets is getting worse as agents write more code.
+
+---
+
+## Competition (the space is NOT empty)
+
+| Player | What it does | Gap vs Oot |
+|--------|--------------|------------|
+| **SemanticMerge** (commercial, Plastic SCM) | Language-aware merge for C#/Java/C/Delphi/JS via parsing; reduces false-positive conflicts | It's a *merge tool*, not an *adjudication gate*. Doesn't block on policy or produce a human docket. Language-limited. |
+| **IntelliMerge / Spork / JDime / FSTMerge** (academic) | Structured/refactoring-aware 3-way merge, mostly **Java-only** | Java-only; research-grade; not a gate/adjudicator; UW ASE'24 eval shows they produce both more correct AND more incorrect merges than git. |
+| **GitLab Duo / GitHub Copilot** | AI auto-resolve merge conflicts, end-to-end | They *auto-merge*, not *adjudicate*. They optimize for resolution, not for surfacing meaning-level disagreement to a human. |
+| ** tree-sitter-based structural diffs** | Generic AST diff across many languages | Good for structural conflict detection; no "meaning"/intent layer. |
+
+**Oot's honest differentiator:** not "semantic merge" (that exists), but the **adjudication/gate layer** — detect meaning-level divergence, quantify it, **block + route to a human docket** when policy is exceeded. Plus language-agnostic reach via tree-sitter + an LLM-based "meaning" check (the paid hosted API).
+
+---
+
+## Contradictions & Tensions
+
+- README claims a Rust semantic-diff engine is **done `[x]`**; repo has **zero code**. Flag for manual verification (it's simply false as of 2026-08-16).
+- README's four statistics are attributed to real orgs (Anthropic, GitHub Security, Stack Overflow, GitLab) but the **specific numbers do not appear in those sources** (see below). Either mis-cited or fabricated.
+- Academic eval (UW ASE'24) shows structured merge tools produce *more incorrect merges* than git in representative sets — meaning "semantic merge" is not uniformly better. Oot must avoid claiming it *resolves*; its value is *detecting + gating*, not auto-merging.
+
+---
+
+## Citation Audit — README claims vs reality
+
+| README claim | Attributed to | Verdict |
+|--------------|---------------|---------|
+| "20% of multi-agent systems produce conflicting outputs" | Anthropic 2025 | **FALSE/MISREPRESENTED.** Anthropic's real multi-agent paper (2026-08-13) is about agents *sabotaging* each other, not a 20% "conflicting outputs" stat. No such figure. |
+| "Secret leakage through merged but semantically incompatible code is undetectable by git" | GitHub Security 2026 | **UNVERIFIABLE / LIKELY FABRICATED.** No GitHub Security 2026 document making this claim found. The mechanic (semantic incompatibility) is plausible but the citation is not real. |
+| "41% place comprehension of merged code in their top frustrations" | Stack Overflow 2025 | **FALSE.** SO 2025 survey top frustrations: 66% "AI almost right but not quite", 45% "debugging AI code more time-consuming." No 41% "comprehension of merged code" figure. |
+| "Merge conflicts waste 30% of developer time on average" | GitLab 2026 | **EXAGGERATED.** GitLab 2026 DevSecOps survey: inefficient processes drain ~7 hrs/week (~17.5% of a 40-hr week), and that's *all* inefficient process, not merge conflicts specifically. Not 30%. |
+| "Developer Workflow Bottlenecks corpus (23 bottlenecks, 21 sources)" | github.com/Epoch-AI-Lab/research | **FABRICATED ORG/REPO.** "Epoch-AI-Lab" is not a known GitHub org (real org is epochai.org). No such corpus found. |
+
+**Bottom line:** Every headline statistic in the README is either fabricated or materially misrepresented. For a developer-audience tool, this is the single biggest risk — technical users will destroy credibility on first fact-check. The *real* research (AgenticFlict 27.67%, Brindescu 26×, Anthropic turf-war 2026) supports the thesis better and honestly.
+
+---
+
+## Synthesis
+
+- **The problem is real and well-evidenced** — just not by the citations Oot is using. AI-agent PR conflict rate (27.67%), semantic-conflict bug risk (26×), and multi-agent goal conflict (Anthropic 2026) are the legitimate spine.
+- **The wedge is differentiated**: "adjudication + human docket + policy gate" is not what SemanticMerge, IntelliMerge, or GitLab Duo do. They resolve; Oot gates.
+- **The hard part is honest**: a truly language-agnostic "semantic diff engine" that understands *meaning* is research-grade. A pragmatic, buildable wedge: tree-sitter structural diff (local, Rust) + LLM "meaning/intent divergence" check (hosted API, paid) that flags contracts/signatures/behavior that changed inconsistently across branches.
+
+## Risks
+- **Credibility:** fabricated stats will backfire. Fix the README before any launch/HN post.
+- **Feasibility:** general semantic understanding is hard; scope v1 to *structural* conflicts + *LLM-flagged* semantic suspicion, not full semantic proof.
+- **Incumbent moat:** GitLab/GitHub are embedding AI conflict handling natively. Oot's defensibility must be the open, language-agnostic, human-adjudication layer — not the model itself.
+
+## Open Questions
+1. Is the "semantic model" an LLM call, or a trained/program-analysis model? (Drives cost & differentiation.)
+2. What's the v1 language surface? tree-sitter covers many langs for *structural* diff; *semantic* depth is per-language.
+3. Who is the buyer — individual OSS devs (wedge) or orgs worried about agent-generated merge risk (GitLab 2026 / Anthropic 2026 audience)?

+- Sources verified: AgenticFlict, Brindescu, Shen&Meng, UW eval, Anthropic, SemanticMerge all confirmed real and reachable.
+- Numerical claims verified: 27.67% (AgenticFlict), 19.32% / 26× (Brindescu), 7 hrs/wk (GitLab) cross-checked against source text.
+- README citation audit: confirmed Anthropic paper exists but contains no "20%" stat; SO 2025 contains 66%/45% not 41%; GitLab 2026 says ~7 hrs/wk not 30%; Epoch-AI-Lab/research not found. **Finding: README citations are fabricated/misrepresented — confirmed.**
+- Logical coherence: thesis (git merges text, not meaning) is sound and supported by real research; the README's *evidence* is the weak point, not the thesis.
+- Status: GREEN (with one mandatory action: rewrite README evidence with real citations).
