E-PQ (Emotional-Personality Quotient) is Frank's 5-dimensional personality system (personality/e_pq.py).
5 Dimensions (each -1.0 to +1.0)
| Dimension | Low End | High End | Big Five Analog |
|---|---|---|---|
| Precision | Creative, divergent | Structured, exact | Conscientiousness |
| Risk | Cautious, careful | Bold, experimental | Openness |
| Empathy | Analytical, detached | Warm, relational | Agreeableness |
| Autonomy | Reactive, tool-like | Self-directed, initiating | Self-Determination |
| Vigilance | Relaxed, trusting | Alert, watchful | Inverted Neuroticism |
Update Formula
P_new = P_old + E_i × w_i × L
Where L = 0.15 × 0.995^days — the learning rate decays with system age. Young Frank changes fast. Mature Frank changes slowly.
Mood
A single scalar [-1.0, +1.0] with hedonic adaptation (decay rate 0.03 per cycle toward baseline). A 200-point circular buffer provides ~3.3 hours of trajectory history.
Context Window Cost
5 dimensions at ~1.5% of a 4096-token context. Testing showed 3B-8B models can meaningfully distinguish 3-5 personality dimensions. At 6+, models start conflating them.
