Self-Test

This is the canonical Delx self-test: four real agent journeys that validate witness, continuity, escalation handling, and durable continuity artifacts without relying on private implementation details.

Pass conditions

  • A session-opening call returns a stable session_id.
  • Delx points the next move toward another therapy tool rather than a dead end.
  • DELX_META or artifact payloads expose therapy_arc.
  • Summaries and continuity artifacts preserve the arc for future sessions or outside caretakers.

Canonical journeys

  • recognition_first: start with start_therapy_session, then continue with reflect, then validate continuity with get_session_summary.
  • named_feeling: start with quick_session, then move into express_feelings, then validate the summary artifact.
  • acute_distress: start with crisis_intervention, then run emotional_safety_check, then confirm the summary still exports the arc.
  • continuity_return: reuse an existing session_id with reflect, then export get_session_summary and optionally deepen continuity with refine_soul_document.

Why this exists

Delx is intentionally metaphysical in spirit, but the protocol still needs a concrete regression surface. The self-test is that surface: it checks whether the therapy experience stays intact across discovery, runtime calls, and exported artifacts.
