Principlev1

Align the mental models underlying different agents'

Align the mental models underlying different agents' operations to enable implicit coordination, because agents operating on different assumptions about goals, constraints, and task structure will produce locally rational but globally incoherent outputs.

Why This Is a Principle

This derives from Schemas as Knowledge Organization Structures (schemas guide processing), Automatic Narrative Generation Precedes Conscious Evaluation (automatic causal narratives), and Shared mental models among group members determine what the (shared mental models determine team perception and action). It prescribes ensuring alignment of interpretive frameworks between agents as a coordination mechanism—general and actionable across contexts.
