The CAT AGI methodology was not designed in a vacuum; it was forged by direct administrative pressure. On August 27, 2025, the planned field research for the project was abruptly halted when its coordinator, Miraziz Bazarov, was arbitrarily denied re-entry into Georgia. This incident, intended to silence and obstruct, became the catalyst that transformed our approach

We immediately pivoted from traditional on-the-ground research to a resilient, remote-first model of systemic analysis. This page details this unique framework. It explains our core philosophy as "post-political auditors," our three-pillar data collection process, and the experimental AI tools we use to turn an act of exclusion into a new, more potent form of public oversight. This is the story of how we weaponized our own constraints to build a better method .

In Georgia's hyper-polarized environment, taking a side is a strategic error. CAT AGI consciously occupies the niche of a post-political systemic auditor . Our goal is not to support or oppose any political force, but to study the entire system with objective, analytical interest. We do not engage in advocacy or activism; we generate verifiable data.

Our tone is deliberately restrained, procedural, and evidence-based. This approach is designed to provide credible, non-partisan data for our primary audience: an international community of diplomats, observers, and researchers seeking to understand the true operational mechanics of power in Georgia. We analyze the system's architecture, not just the personalities within it.

This audit extends to all actors. While the actions of the ruling party are a primary focus, we recognize that the political landscape is shaped equally by the failures of its challengers. The strategic miscalculations, internal fragmentation, and inability of the opposition to present a viable, unifying alternative are critical factors in the current political reality . A comprehensive post-election analysis of the opposition's performance will therefore be a key component of our research. We don't just call out the rigged game; we document how and why all players are losing it.

Pillar 1: Open-Source Intelligence & AI-Assisted Analysis
The foundation of our remote methodology is a rigorous Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) process. We continuously monitor a vast array of public sources—media archives, social networks, official government records, procurement databases, and NGO reports—to identify patterns, map networks, and verify claims.

The Engine: NOUS AGI To process large volumes of Georgian-language content that would be impossible to analyze manually, we leverage an experimental AI framework called NOUS AGI. This system is not just a tool; it is a core part of our research into distributed intelligence, originating from the Indie 6xPhD program . NOUS AGI is a simple Lisp-based project that semi-automatically coordinates between multiple large language models (including GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, and Llama) for complex analytical tasks, allowing us to see patterns in the noise.

Technological Transparency & Limitations: We believe in radical honesty about our methods. NOUS AGI is an experimental research prototype in a constant state of beta testing. It does not replace human judgment but enhances our analytical capacity. Errors, artifacts, and even the occasional, unintentional publication of raw debug logs directly from the system are possible. We consciously embrace this transparency, as these "seams" are part of our open research process into the real-world application of AI in complex political environments .

Pillar 2: Formal Information Requests & The Transparency Log
This is our core methodological innovation. We systematically submit official inquiries to state, municipal, and parliamentary bodies to map their institutional processes. The goal is not merely to get an answer, but to document how the system itself works: who forwards the request, which departments are responsible, what formal barriers are erected (e.g., the demand for wet-signed paper documents or Georgian-specific e-signatures), and how procedural deadlines are met or missed .

All our formal inquiries and the institutional responses we receive — or the documented silence — are published in our public Transparency Log. This log is a live research tool that audits not only Georgian bureaucracy but international systems as well. Our initial stress test of over 18 international emergency grant mechanisms, which revealed a systemic failure to provide timely support, is a key part of this ongoing audit .

Pillar 3: Primary Source Intelligence
To complement our OSINT analysis, we gather primary qualitative data through two main channels:
The Citizen Signals Channel: We operate a secure, anonymous channel for citizens to report relevant information about election irregularities, administrative pressure, or municipal governance issues. All signals undergo a rigorous verification process and are used only in an aggregated, fully anonymized format.

Important: CAT AGI is a research initiative, not a rapid-response service. All data is collected for deep, post-election analysis. Our goal is to identify systemic patterns for our final reports, not to intervene in single incidents in real time.

Expert & Insider Interviews: Our analysis is further deepened through a series of open and anonymous interviews with subject-matter experts, journalists, civil society members, and, where possible, insiders within the system. These conversations provide invaluable qualitative context, expert validation, and nuanced perspectives that are not available in open sources.

All data collected through our three-pillar method is analyzed through a consistent framework of six "indicators of power." This allows us to move beyond isolated incidents and map the systemic architecture of control.

1. Media Narratives: We don't just track bias; we map the entire architecture of narrative control. This includes identifying dominant state-sanctioned narratives (e.g., "Peace vs. War"), analyzing the ownership and financial networks of key media "propaganda megaphones" like Imedi TV, and documenting the use of regulatory bodies like the GNCC to enforce narrative discipline.
2. Administrative Leverage: We audit the use of state and municipal resources as tools of political power. This involves documenting the re-engineering of the electoral code to favor the incumbent, the weaponization of public sector jobs to enforce loyalty, and the strategic timing of major infrastructure announcements to generate electoral capital.
3. Digital Tactics: We document the institutionalization of digital influence operations. This includes analyzing Meta's takedowns of Coordinated Inauthentic Behavior (CIB) networks directly linked to the Georgian government's Strategic Communications Department and tracking how these networks are used to amplify propaganda and conduct smear campaigns.
4. International Ties: We analyze how foreign policy is instrumentalized for domestic control. This includes documenting the government's anti-Western rhetoric used to delegitimize domestic opposition, and its strategic pivot towards alternative partnerships (China, UAE) to secure capital without democratic conditionality .
5. Legal & Economic Instruments: We map the "donor-contractor loop" where public procurement contracts are systematically awarded to companies that donate to the ruling party. We also analyze the use of "bespoke" legislation, like the 2024 "offshore law," designed to protect the assets of the ruling elite from international sanctions .
6. Corporate Networks: We deconstruct the fusion of private wealth and public authority. This involves mapping the "revolving door" between key government posts and positions within the business empire of the ruling party's founder, Bidzina Ivanishvili, and documenting the corporate interests of key political figures like Mayor Kakha Kaladze .

While focused on the Tbilisi mayoral election, CAT AGI is the first practical implementation for a much larger intellectual framework: the Indie 6xPhD research program. This is not a traditional academic pursuit; it is a proposed new model for generating knowledge in the 21st century—independent, interdisciplinary, and focused on producing real-world, minimally viable products (MVPs) instead of purely theoretical dissertations.

Personal Genesis: From Trauma to Technology The 6xPhD framework is the direct externalization of the founder's 8-year personal journey of transformation. It is the practical application of an alchemical formula:

Trauma → Research → Methodology → Technology → Transformation for Others . Each of the six research directions is born from a deep, personal crisis that was overcome through the creation of a new system or technology. This project transforms personal experience—from political persecution and health crises to systemic analysis—into a replicable set of tools for understanding and changing complex systems.

The Six Directions: A Holographic System The Indie 6xPhD program is designed as a holographic system of six interconnected fields, where a breakthrough in one area provides tools and insights for all others. CAT AGI serves as the first field test for two of these directions:

• PhD #3: Transnational Power Systems → Product: Post-National Governance Models This research grows directly out of the experience of being a political refugee and activist. It aims to design and test new forms of social organization beyond the nation-state, analyzing power as the ability to shape reality through narratives and onthologies. CAT AGI's audit of the Georgian power vertical is the first practical case study for this PhD.

• PhD #2: Distributed AGI Architecture → Product: NOÛS Δ This direction explores new architectures for Artificial General Intelligence, not as an imitation of human consciousness, but as a new form of distributed, self-modifying intelligence. The development of NOUS AGI as an analytical engine for CAT AGI is the first prototype, testing how multiple AIs can be coordinated for complex social analysis.

• PhD #1: Applied Neuro-Engineering → Product: Bazarov Bot & Fractal Psychology Born from years of therapeutic practice and self-analysis, this direction aims to create technologies for conscious personality transformation. Its core is Fractal Psychology, a model that views the psyche as a self-similar structure where changing one small part can transform the whole system.

• PhD #5: Somatic Interface → Product: CORPUS DEI™ This research is the direct result of overcoming a decade-long, misdiagnosed health crisis and achieving medical autonomy . It focuses on creating non-invasive neuro-interfaces to monitor and manage the body's systems, moving from a paradigm of "fighting disease" to "engineering optimal function".

• PhD #4: Advanced Energetics → Product: Alternative Energy Validation Network This direction addresses the 70-year stagnation in fundamental physics by creating a framework to rigorously and openly test suppressed or marginalized energy theories. The goal is not to invent, but to create the social and scientific technology to validate potential breakthroughs .

• PhD #6: Integrative Metascience → Product: Scientific Revolution Acceleration Methods This is the science of science itself. It aims to develop social technologies to overcome institutional inertia and accelerate paradigm shifts, addressing the systemic crisis in modern academia .

This deep connection to a larger research framework elevates CAT AGI from a local monitoring initiative to an international research project, testing new ways of understanding and influencing systemic processes in the post-information age.
