📖 Description

This post contains some of my current best guesses at aspects of agent type signatures for which I expect there are useful [Selection Theorems](https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/G2Lne2Fi7Qra5Lbuf/selection-theorems-a-program-for-understanding-agents), as well as properties of selection optima which I expect are key to proving these type signatures.
