## Pages

- [Page not found](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/404/): That page doesn't exist, or it has moved since you last looked
- [Assessment](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/assessments/): Every piece of graded work in the course, what it is worth, and when it is due.
- [Bestiary entry](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/assessments/bestiary-entry/): What the congress tables. One new entry for a creature outside the course's twenty-five, admissible under the week 12 rule, with its gaps declared.
- [Classification design](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/assessments/classification-design/): The capstone, in two parts. Part 1 at week 7 is the system the rest of the semester tries to break. Part 2 at the end is the transfer test — run it on material this course never gave you, and declare what does not survive.
- [Peer review](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/assessments/peer-review/): At the week 12 congress, review two other bestiary entries against the admissibility rule and against the systems their authors proposed.
- [Reclassification essay](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/assessments/reclassification-essay/): Take one creature whose records disagree, argue for a single reading, and state what that reading costs the system you proposed at the midterm.
- [Specimen cards](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/assessments/specimen-cards/): One card a week, on one creature from that week's list, applying that week's rule. Twelve cards, written as the semester runs and submitted together.
- [People](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/people/): Who teaches the course, and how to reach them.
- [Idris Fenn](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/people/idris-fenn/): Philologist and tutor. Runs the close reading, and asks which edition a line came from before it is allowed into anybody's entry.
- [Marisol Quaye](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/people/marisol-quaye/): Systematist and convenor. Supplies the Linnaean machinery the course tries to fit to a text that has no specimens, and rules on what a character is.
- [Policies and support](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/policies/): The course-wide rules for late work, extensions, academic integrity and getting help.
- [What a classification system is](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/sessions/01-why-classify-monsters/): What the Classic of Mountains and Seas is, what Linnaeus did that we are going to copy, Borges' fake Chinese encyclopedia as the counter-example, and what the book already sorts by.
- [Reading the source text](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/sessions/02-the-entry-as-specimen/): Where our characters come from. Candidates come from repetition, they have to survive three tests, and the first one the Classic of Mountains and Seas offers is incomplete in more than half the records we cite.
- [Morphological classification](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/sessions/03-morphology/): Four composite bodies taken apart into parts and counts. Two of them differ only in where a number sits, one disagrees with itself between its two records, and one is assembled out of no animal at all.
- [Geography and habitat](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/sessions/04-geography-and-habitat/): Three records fill the habitat field the same way and mean three different things by it — a mountain at a derivable position on a route, an unspecified sea, and a country placed relative to the entry before it.
- [Omens and uses](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/sessions/05-omens-and-uses/): 見則天下大旱 stands word for word on six creatures that share no part and no chapter. The omens do fill a closed grid of scope against event, and the cell a creature lands in follows from nothing else on its card.
- [The 神 and the 獸](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/sessions/06-the-god-and-the-beast/): 陆吾 and 开明兽 guard one mountain with nearly one body and are filed in different kingdoms. The difference between them in the record is a job rather than a limb, and several records name no kind at all.
- [Drift](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/sessions/07-drift/): The 青丘之山 record names no beast. 九尾狐 is a handle attached later, so everything the name now carries was added after the record closed — and the same process runs inside the edition, on 狌狌 and on 讙头.
- [Where classification fails](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/sessions/08-one-name-many-creatures/): 肥遗 names two incompatible snakes and a bird across two chapters, 窫窳 has two records that cannot describe one body, and the entry form has a single name field that cannot hold either fact.
- [Comparative systems](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/sessions/09-other-systems/): Two bestiaries that never needed a species concept, read for their organising principle rather than ranked against ours. Both sort by what a creature is for the reader, and then the same test is turned back on 其状如.
- [Cross-system comparison](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/sessions/10-cross-system-comparison/): Four creatures filed twice, once under our own system and once under one of last week's two. 夔's two filings drop opposite halves of one line, 帝江 has a clause none of the three can hold, and 驺吾 is the one our system alone fails.
- [Modern reconstruction](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/sessions/11-beyond-the-shanhaijing/): The first material this course meets that the edition did not produce. 夫诸's three clauses leave six decisions a model has to make anyway, 帝江 forces a renderer to draw an absence, and on 九尾狐 the audit stops working.
- [The taxonomic congress](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-Alida9898/sessions/12-the-taxonomic-congress/): Entries are tabled and challenged on one ground only, an undeclared field. 猼訑 shows what the rule does to a shared trait, 窫窳 forces a pick nothing justifies, and the course answers its own question.
