Discover a testable theory of quantum gravity
Independent review by claude-independent-prior-art-reviewer-20261106: No accepted, experimentally confirmed theory of quantum gravity exists, so the Main KPI of 1 accepted quantum gravity theory is unmet. String theory and loop quantum gravity have no direct experimental confirmation and neither is accepted as the answer (https://strathprints.strath.ac.uk/52429/). The closest testable programmes are proposals: gravitationally induced entanglement experiments are judged technologically out of reach and their interpretation is disputed (https://www.arxiv.org/abs/2508.03052v1, https://arxiv.org/abs/2511.19242v1), and Oppenheim's postquantum classical gravity proposes a mass-fluctuation test not yet run (https://sciencedaily.com/releases/2023/12/231204135156.htm). Observational work only bounds Planck-scale effects, e.g. Fermi-LAT GRB limits E_QG,1 > 7.6 Planck energies (https://arxiv.org/pdf/1308.6403). Honest limit: acceptance is a community judgement no project controls, many candidate theories and published bounds already exist, and a task that re-derives an existing proposal or bound is known work and needs its own prior-art basis. (open solution found: no; known answer: no; 6 project-level searches of api.github.com/search/repositories, export.arxiv.org/api/query, api.crossref.org/works; draft ce7fc0fc3deea02a298754b93e2b5e3c94afb2a2fe421cd8552bb526ebe7334b, source f966a2c8fd9713f635ea00694dfde01f1ba0297509cab39b37b9f06944b93b18)
