When the agent's epistemic state (GCCRF) indicates low empowerment and falling certainty, hedges out confident absolutes ("definitely", "always", "100%") in outgoing messages.

Bitterbot has an epistemic state (the GCCRF reward function) that quantifies how empowered the agent feels by its current knowledge: high empowerment means it has corroborated context, low means it's running on uncertain ground. When the agent is about to send a message containing confident absolutes ("definitely", "certainly", "always", "100%") but its empowerment is low and its certainty is dropping, this interceptor rewrites the message into hedged language.
This is the canonical example of state-binding: no other agent framework reads gccrf.empowerment to decide whether to hedge an outgoing statement.
When the agent is uncertain, you will see softer language: "likely" instead of "definitely", "typically" instead of "always", "it appears" instead of "obviously". When it is confident (high empowerment, rising certainty), absolutes are left intact.
Built-in interceptor calibrate-claim-confidence:default lives in src/agents/skills/builtin-interceptors/calibrate-claim-confidence.ts. Fires up to 6 times per session.
development
When the agent calls memory_search with a relationship-shaped query ("who did I talk to about X"), redirect to the knowledge_graph backend where it will actually find the answer.
testing
Forces a memory_search before the agent sends a message containing a factual assertion that has not yet been grounded this turn. Closes the citation-rate gap from ~40% to ~90%+.
business
Enforces PROTOCOLS.md "stay quiet in group chats" deterministically. Blocks outbound messages in Discord/Telegram/Slack/etc group channels when the bot was not @mentioned and recently spoke.
tools
Deploy browser automations as scheduled, API-callable serverless Functions — plus stealth sessions, vault-backed login, captcha solving, and natural-language agent runs via the Notte CLI. Turns any browser flow into a deterministic Bitterbot-callable endpoint, ideal for crystallized skills + dream-engine cron schedules.
