agent.zoo maps the competing definitions of agency
An interactive atlas compares definitions of agency and tracks what their sources say about example systems.
- For
- Readers comparing theories of agency
- Worth noticing
- Its legend marks relations as required, conditional, disputed, or explicitly not required, while warning that the Zoo’s codings are unchecked against each source.
Field notes
The page separates two kinds of material: what each definition requires and what sources say about example systems. Visitors can search the map, filter by what a definition defines or requires, and toggle Zoo hypotheses. Its legend distinguishes required, conditionally required, disputed, and explicitly not required relations; the page says these codings are the Zoo's and have not been checked against each source. Source claims and quote-checking status are presented as explicit evidence boundaries.
