The additive structure of clusters of nonstandard models of arithmetic
Amazing result! I'm surprised about how hard it is to see. Intuitively I would imagine that there is a clever encoding that will immediately give a way to recover the additive reduction of the original model. And I'm very surprised about the multiplicative result

Progress on determining which partial orders embed into the rationals
@bof yeah, I think it is fine

@bof the original reference is in French I believe (I think it is this), but you can find a mention of this fact in "Antichain Decompositions of a Partially Ordered Set"

I noticed I made a mistake in my previous comment, the correct function is $f:P→T_2(κ)$ with $f\in 2^{ι(x){\boldsymbol{+1}}}$

The last Proposition is a theorem by Kurepa, who proved the more general form statement: For a cardinal $κ$ let $T_2(κ)=(2^{<κ}, <_{lex})$, if $P$ is a union of $κ$-many anti-chains, then it is embeddable into $T_2(κ)$. Let $(A_α\mid α<κ)$ be some well-ordering of an antichain decomposition (as we may assume they are disjoint), and let $ι(x)$ to be the unique $α$ with $x∈A_α$. Define the witness $f:P→T_2(κ)$ by $f(x)∈2^{ι(x)}$ with $f(x)_α=1$ iff there exists $y∈A_α$ with $y≤x$

Great! I will be waiting for any updates

@JoelDavidHamkins Thanks for the comments, which theorem by Friedman are you referring to?
comment
The additive structure of clusters of nonstandard models of arithmetic
Thanks for the answer, my intent in this question was the more general manner, indeed if we can show that given an additive cluster structure we can identify M up to isomorphism I would regard this as a positive answer

How much information do we need to guess a large cardinal?
If the block is unbounded, then certainly the block, otherwise the limits

A good place to start looking at is the limit cardinals bellow $κ$, as most reflecting principle will reflect to some stationary subset of those cardinals

How closely do ordinal collapsing functions relate to Skolem hulls?
Although it appears that the operators above don't include $<$ in them, so it is not truely the same as the Skolem hull of the above Skolem functions
comment
How closely do ordinal collapsing functions relate to Skolem hulls?
The ordinals are well ordered, so the definable elements are closed under the Skolem functions defined as "take the minimal witness of ∃yφ(x,y)", so the closure operator on sets of ordinals can in fact looked at as a Skolem hull operator

Is ZF + Def a conservative extension of ZFC+HOD? If not, what are counter-examples?
@ZuhairAl-Johar I have shown that $ZFC+Def$ is conservative to $ZFC+Definability\ rule$, if the former proves $\phi$ a statement in FOST and the latter does not, let $M$ be a witness (a model of the latter + $\lnot\phi$), then the $M_0$ I defined will be a model of $ZFC+Def+\lnot\phi$, which is a contradiction

Large cardinal near inconsistencies
@JosephVanName considering that Berkeley cardinals are known to be inconsistent (with AC), the assertion "If Berkeley cardinals are found to be inconsistent, not much would change" is as true as you can get
comment
Can we state $\sf V=HOD$ using a single ordinal parameter(other than the formula code)?
In Zuhair's definition you don't act any function on $α$, that is you can't use the pairing function on $α$ and use the resulting ordinals as parameters
