From Screening to Soul Graph: A Local-First Architecture for Gamified Talent Progression in Agent-Native Organisations

Reports empirical outcomes from a 55-candidate API-first screening system and its extension into a continuous talent progression engine. Introduces the Soul File (structured identity capture), Soul Graph (force-directed weak-tie visualisation), and gamified progression with uncapped XP fed by development tool signals. Proposes local-first architecture with differential privacy for federated intelligence across organisations.

Abstract

Reports empirical outcomes from a 55-candidate API-first screening system and its extension into a continuous talent progression engine. Introduces the Soul File (structured identity capture), Soul Graph (force-directed weak-tie visualisation), and gamified progression with uncapped XP fed by development tool signals. Proposes local-first architecture with differential privacy for federated intelligence across organisations.
