0 · WHY A COMPOSER — the finding that governs this build
IQ.wiki has no write API. The official MCP server exposes five
read-only tools; the public API is marketed as upcoming; the only documented intake is a
human typing into the Sophia chat (the "Suggest Wiki" button). Sophia is real and
is the gate: she gathers the proposal, runs it against the editorial standards,
and routes it to the human editorial team — most decisions within days. Outside people
do not edit; they suggest. So the machine's job ends at a well-formed, well-cited,
neutral-toned draft — the human is the gate no automation replaces (the same
boundary the whole project rests on). Order of record:
ORDER_ZAGENT_IQWIKI_SOPHIA_2026-08-20.
⚠ flagged, not resolved: IQ.wiki's own
/about and /wiki/iqwiki pages still describe the old open-editor
model while /faq and /guidelines describe the Sophia model — a site
mid-migration. which page describes the current write path is a genuine unknown; this
composer assumes the stricter reading (human editorial review) and assumes nothing else.
1 · BEFORE COMPOSING — has an entry already landed?
the order's standing rule: check before composing. this seat probed
IQ.wiki's search server-side on 2026-08-20 — both probe paths returned HTTP 404
(the search is a JavaScript client route; a failed fetch is a failure, never "no entry
exists"). so the check is yours, operator: open
iq.wiki, search the subject, and only
propose what is absent — a correction to an existing entry is a different, smaller
submission than a new wiki.
2 · THE SUBJECT — four things, because four clear the scope gate
IQ.wiki's first screen is scope: "subject must be meaningfully
connected to crypto." the register below is pre-cleared — a nutrition surface
does not clear it and cannot be selected; that is the cheapest rejection, refused here
rather than there.
3 · THE SENTENCES — a sentence without a citation does not enter the draft
every seeded sentence below is composed from the project's own
ratified records — which IQ.wiki's citation policy explicitly permits (official docs
and primary sources qualify; the most favourable fact in the whole research pass).
tick to include; add your own at the bottom — but the citation slot cannot be left
empty, and the page enforces it.
add a sentence (third person, one claim):
4 · THE TONE CHECK — third person, no superlatives, no advertisement
the real risk is not authorship (IQ.wiki has no COI rule) — it is
tone: promotional tone is their definition of spam, judged by a human editor with no
obligation to explain. the checker flags first person, second person, superlatives,
promotional verbs, unfalsifiable phrasing and exclamation marks. it shows you the
flagged sentence and why; it never silently rewrites. a flagged sentence can still
go in — but only by your explicit keep-anyway tick, so the human decision stays visible
at the seam it belongs.
5 · THE DRAFT — sized for a chat window
✋ the handoff is human hands. open IQ.wiki, click
Suggest Wiki, and paste. this page cannot and will not submit anything itself —
no seat transmits to any external institution; that is founder-hands law. one open
question rides with you: whether the Sophia chat asks for a connected wallet is
unresolved (the seat's probes hit JS shells); if it asks, that fact belongs on the bus —
§4 of the order closes with that ask.
