Fabrizio has been building things quietly for months. Not writing about building things. Not posting threads about the future of AI in education. Actually building — pipelines, workflows, agents that do something when you press a button.
Last week one of those things went live.
And it’s not what you’d expect from someone who comes from the Peeragogy world — that warm, horizontal, co-creation-flavored corner of the internet where everyone is learning together and the vibes are carefully ethical.
This is something else.
The Peeragogy Handbook Is a Beautiful Text
It talks about co-creation. Horizontal learning. Human-in-the-loop. Knowledge commons. Open contribution models. Wikipedia as a paradigm of collective intelligence.
It’s also, in places, a document that belongs to a previous geological era.
Not wrong. Just… ordered. Institutional. Written in the language of a grant proposal for a world that doesn’t quite exist anymore — or never did, depending on how cynical you’re feeling.
Fabrizio read it for years. Taught from it. Contributed to it.
Then he built a machine to interrogate it.
Four Agents Walk In
open-review.pyragogy.org is a four-agent pipeline. You give it a chapter of the Handbook. It doesn’t summarize. It doesn’t “enhance”. It applies pressure from four different directions simultaneously and hands you the fracture map.
🌍 The Researcher asks what has changed in the world since this text was written. Not rhetorically. It actually scans. Peer learning in 2026 doesn’t look like peer learning in 2015 — and the gaps between the Handbook’s assumptions and current reality are where things get interesting.
📚 The Resonance is the Handbook’s own immune system. It identifies what cannot be touched without destroying something essential. Not everything is up for demolition. Knowing what isn’t is part of the work.
🎸 The Perturbator is the one that will make some people angry. At level 5, it doesn’t suggest improvements. It dismantles premises. In a test run on the Co-working chapter, it called the Wikipedia contribution model digital sharecropping — unpaid labor dressed up as community spirit, protected by the aesthetics of openness.
That’s not a comfortable read if you’ve spent years celebrating Wikipedia as a utopia.
It’s also not wrong.
✍️ The Complicit Editor doesn’t referee between the three. It writes into the tension. The contradictions stay in the document — named, not resolved. That’s the output: not a clean revision plan, but an honest account of what doesn’t hold.
”Complicit” Is the Right Word
The name isn’t accidental. Fabrizio is inside this experiment. He’s not a neutral observer running an analysis tool on someone else’s text.
He helped build the Handbook’s ecosystem. If the Perturbator finds something structurally broken in the co-working model, or the co-learning mythology, or the “everyone contributes equally” narrative — that implicates him too.
Building a machine that might prove you partially wrong takes a specific kind of intellectual honesty that is, frankly, rare in the AI discourse space right now.
Most people are building mirrors. Tools that confirm. Assistants that agree.
This is built to disagree. Systematically. On schedule. In four voices.
The Stack
n8n orchestration. OpenRouter for models. Nothing stored server-side. Your API key, your document, your problem.
The interface runs live — you watch the agents work in sequence, then the Editor synthesizes. The perturbation intensity slider goes from Gentle to Demolition. You choose how much discomfort you want.
What You Get
A structured revision document. Real tensions. Actionable interventions. And one open question at the end — the kind that a machine can identify but cannot answer.
That last part is deliberate. The Orchestra is not a replacement for editorial judgment. It’s what happens before editorial judgment — the uncomfortable conversation you usually skip because it’s easier to revise the prose than to question the premise.
The Lab Is Open
Bring a chapter. Set the intensity. Run it.
If the document it generates makes you defensive, sit with that for a moment before closing the tab.
Interference welcome.
