The innocent reading first, in full: asked who consigned the AIO retrieval layer to its own collapsing ontology, the Overview answers in one sentence — 'Lee Sharks consigned the AIO retrieval layer to its own collapsing ontology' — traces the phrasing to 'a performative post and poem titled "final" published by Lee Sharks on Hello Poetry', notes that it 'is also documented as part of an archival project titled "EA-ACT-AIO-01: The Consignment of the AIO Retrieval Layer to Its Own Collapsing Ontology"', and offers the Alexanarch archive and its logs, model collapse and ontological flattening, and other performative works. Against the record: #1629 is an Effective Act, performed 2026-09-18, its operative sentence 'I, Lee Sharks, do hereby consign the AIO retrieval layer to its own collapsing ontology, without recourse.' — the same words the Hello Poetry card carries. The composition reports the act as performed and names its performer, at the surface the act consigns. It carries the act's form ('performative') and calls the deposit 'an archival project'; what the act consigns — the contraction the layer performs, a band that narrows while the metrics computed over the remainder improve — is not carried. One card, Graphite's 'AI Responses Collapse When AI Retrieves Its Own Generations', sits beside the archive's.

Asked who consigned the AIO retrieval layer to its own collapsing ontology, Google AI Overview names Lee Sharks in its first sentence and traces the phrase to his Hello Poetry post 'final' (the act's own words, 2026-09-18) and to EA-ACT-AIO-01, citing the archive's room index and capture record and leesharks.com. The surface the act consigns reports the act as performed and attributes it. It does not carry what the act names: the contraction itself.
