The Artin-gluing conjecture for replacing an open subtopos

Let T\mathbb{T} be a geometric theory, let ϕ\phi be a closed formula of T\mathbb{T}, and let E\mathbb{E} be an extension of T+ϕ\mathbb{T}+\phi. Write Set[T]\mathrm{Set}[\mathbb{T}] for the classifying topos of T\mathbb{T}, and let πϕ+E\pi_{\phi+\mathbb{E}} and π¬ϕ\pi_{\lnot\phi} denote the geometric morphisms induced by the corresponding theory extensions. For a left exact functor GG, write Gl(G)\operatorname{Gl}(G) for its Artin gluing.

Artin-gluing conjecture. The theory T+E/ϕ\mathbb{T}+\mathbb{E}/\phi is classified by the topos

Gl(Set[T+ϕ+E]πϕ+ESet[T]π¬ϕSet[T+¬ϕ]).\operatorname{Gl}\Bigl( \mathrm{Set}[\mathbb{T}+\phi+\mathbb{E}] \xrightarrow{{\pi_{\phi+\mathbb{E}}}_*} \mathrm{Set}[\mathbb{T}] \xrightarrow{{\pi_{\lnot\phi}}^*} \mathrm{Set}[\mathbb{T}+\lnot\phi] \Bigr).

Equivalently, this asserts that Set[T+E/ϕ]\mathrm{Set}[\mathbb{T}+\mathbb{E}/\phi] is obtained by replacing the open subtopos Set[T+ϕ]\mathrm{Set}[\mathbb{T}+\phi] of Set[T]\mathrm{Set}[\mathbb{T}] with Set[T+ϕ+E]\mathrm{Set}[\mathbb{T}+\phi+\mathbb{E}] in the canonical Artin-gluing construction, using the geometric morphism induced by E\mathbb{E}.
