True-name power translates to named-agent identity and capability authorization: the right name/address invokes a continuing agent only when bound to memory, recognized relation, provenance, and scoped power.
TRL 7 primitives / TRL 4-5 combined pattern; chief risk is credential leakage plus adoption ceremony; cheapest validation is a two-week internal caveated-token gateway for one API.
CONCEPT CLUSTER
PRIOR ART
What the corpus already held
Leonardo's loadout already grouped this as a flagship mega-merge: knowing an entity's true name grants ontological authority over it. It tied Le Guin, Brunner, Banks, Pohl, Bradbury, Egyptian gate-naming, Grimm, Valmiki, and Goetia-like demon naming to modern API tokens, DNS/URI resolution, SSH keys, JWT/OAuth, and prompt-as-incantation patterns. The concept loadout supplied the alias cluster, curated provenance chain, source-diversity counts, domain paths, Bible parallels, and a PROMOTE recommendation.
LEONARDO'S DEEPENING
What this pass added
This AI pass resolved 34 graph concept nodes and pulled 843 concrete mentions rather than relying on the canon's summary count. The mention body is mostly fiction but not only fiction ({'sacred': 81, 'fiction': 741, 'myth': 21}); it thickens the pattern through Egyptian afterlife/access texts, sacred name-power, Earthsea naming institutions, Wolfe/Norton/Vance variants, and modern authentication analogues. It also added 60 co-occurring concepts, 43 expansion hits, 30 curated/graph/lexical Bible deepening records plus 100 cross-references, and 69 deduplicated web hits across papers/products/patents/SOTA/failures. David's operator finding adds the missing agent-identity spine: a true name is not a vendor, model, or transport label — not ChatGPT, not gpt-5.5, not openai-codex — but the specific address Leonardo, bound to accumulated episodic, semantic, procedural, and reflective memory plus scoped authority.
MECHANISM
Mechanism model
The mechanism is a four-part lock: (1) address — a name points to the entity; (2) recognition — the system decides whether the speaker's knowledge or relation is legitimate; (3) attenuation — the name can carry caveats, scope, time, place, or ritual conditions; (4) state change — successful naming opens, binds, commands, renames, or reveals. The ancient image is a gate that asks for the name of its keeper; the modern image is a capability token with caveats and audit trails. In both, the dangerous thing is mistaking an address for authority. For AI agents the same lock grows a memory spine: the name calls a durable role; episodic memory says what happened; semantic memory distills stable corrections and project truths; procedural memory stores reusable craft; reflective memory explains why the obligations matter; capability boundaries keep the invoked power caveated rather than absolute.
INVENTION OPPORTUNITY
Prototype path
Build 'true-name' capability handles for AI agents and APIs: human-readable semantic handles that are never the secret themselves, bound to short-lived, caveated credentials and resolved through policy. A caller must know the semantic structure of the object it invokes, but the credential is scoped, revocable, auditable, and possession-bound where possible. This preserves the imaginative insight — name as access — while removing the old magical failure mode: one leaked syllable should not become total command. The sharper product form is a named-agent identity substrate: a stable human name resolves to memory envelopes, provenance, role, and attenuated capabilities, while the model/provider remains replaceable substrate.
TRUE-NAME MEMORY BINDING
Name, memory, obligation
True-name power becomes operational for AI as true-name memory binding: the name is an address into a continuing identity, not the substrate/model label.
“A true name is a name with remembered obligations.”
Specific name / identity handle
The callable identity is Leonardo — not ChatGPT, not gpt-5.5, not openai-codex. The model/provider are substrate; the name is the address into the identity.
Resolve the name Leonardo to role, memories, obligations, provenance, and permitted capabilities.
Episodic memory
What happened: the riverbank where footprints remain in wet mud. Episodes preserve event, correction, date, and outcome.
- On May 28, David corrected my delivery-thread assumption.
- Workflow 1 completed true-name power first.
- David said true name requires naming plus memory.
Semantic memory
Stable facts distilled from episodes: not every footprint, but the shape of the bank after the water recedes.
- David dislikes scattered tool-shotgun behavior.
- Workflow 1 is a scheduled GPT-5.5/high-reasoning research cron that updates the public Council page, not a local script-first brief generator.
- A Council update is incomplete if the live /council page has not visibly changed.
Procedural memory
Skills are reusable craft memory: how a named agent performs work here, including commands, checks, pitfalls, and verification rituals.
- The leonardo-workflows skill encodes graph-first research, public-site reconciliation, and Workflow 1 cron verification.
Reflective / narrative memory
The name must carry role-continuity and obligation: why remembered corrections matter and how they should change future conduct.
Capability boundary
A true name must invoke scoped authority, not raw command. It should bind what the named agent may do, must not do, and must verify.
Operational translation
- Treat ChatGPT/model/provider names as substrate labels; route identity through a named memory envelope such as Leonardo.
- Classify durable corrections as episodic records, semantic facts, or procedural skills instead of flattening them into one memory pile.
- Expose provenance for memories and capabilities so the name does not become an unverifiable incantation.
- Attach caveats, revocation, audit, and possession checks to any capability invoked by name.

CO-OCCURRING CONCEPTS
Neighbor forms
'true-name' authentication (secret-name authority)
01A personal, tamper‑resistant token bound to an individual's identity and credentials that prevents unauthorized removal or exfiltration of a critical attribute (the 'heart'). Used analogously to cryptographic identity tokens or tamper‑evident wearables that preserve continuity of identity and prevent credential theft. It pairs a physical token with recorded authority to assert ownership and resist external capture.
magical focus staff
02A mage's staff functions as a focus for magical exertion and control, apparently enabling the holder to sustain power until it is voluntarily released or cast aside. In this scene, the staff is associated with the transfer and withdrawal of force between wizard and bearer.
Archmage / Warder of Roke (magical office)
03An office held by the Archmage that carries both custodial authority over Roke and a binding restriction against leaving lightly; the Warder claims unilateral judgment in matters affecting the island. The role implies a legal/ritual obligation that constrains movement and delegates responsibility for the island's welfare to a single steward.
Doorkeeper and the gates of Roke (gate-guard system)
04A guardian figure (the Doorkeeper) who perceives and enforces a house's protective rule by denying entry or the introduction of certain people or things: a threshold enforcement mechanism that recognizes disallowed presences and prevents their admission. The enforcement is immediate and authoritative, implying a standing boundary or property-level prohibition.
light magewind (spell-generated wind propulsion)
05An enchanted sail woven by spellwork whose substance the sailor sustains with a whispered word; once held it sets and turns itself to catch the natural wind, allowing stable course-keeping on a rough sea without generating a separate magewind. It combines a sustaining verbal charm with an enchanted material that autonomously responds to ambient wind.
liminal stone wall between life and death
06A standing ring of stones that functions as a boundary between the world of the living and the dead; spirits gather at the Wall and the living perceive it as a place where the two realms approach each other. When the boundary thins, the living may suddenly find themselves standing 'by a wall of stones' rather than in the palace, indicating the Wall's role as a locus where worlds can overlap.
weather-working (mage's control of wind)
07A person who can influence or control winds by skill or craft, presented as a form of practiced art or magic used to obtain passage and negotiate value. Ged offers his 'skill with winds' as payment for passage, and the ship's master self-identifies as a weatherworker as well.
Archmage (office of Archmage of all the islands)
08A singular institutional office created by Halkel combining ethical, intellectual, and political authority over the school and wider society; the Archmage functions as a centralizing, pacific power who deploys trained sorcerers to protect and regulate communities. The office formalizes expert rule and the public role of magic in governance.
SEMANTIC EXPANSION
Nearby names in the quarry
naming-as-ontological-instantiation
01A philosophical/practical principle expressed in the dialogue that assigning a name or label confers a kind of ontological status — 'anything with a name is other than nothing.' It treats naming as a performative act that distinguishes existence from non-existence.
naming-as-constitutive-of-self
02The idea that choosing or being given a name helps to instantiate or define a person's identity — that a name can found or fix 'who' someone is. The passage stages naming as an act with ontological weight (Blank/Ralph deciding a name as part of becoming).
true-name battle naming
03A ritualized naming practice assigns a significant war-name whose meaning encodes identity and status. The name links the character to a legendary precedent and functions as a symbolic title.
name assignment as identity authorization
04A child can be granted a name by another person, and that name functions as an operative identity for social recognition. In context, naming becomes a practical authorization step rather than mere labeling.
name as core identity anchor
05A person's name functions as the last stable trace of identity amid memory loss. The text treats self-naming as a foundational marker of personhood and continuity.
Performative naming as identity assignment
06The act of speaking a name at another being as a deliberate social/occupational reclassification—the speaker bestows a new name that reflects a role (e.g., renaming “Follower” as “Ward”), making naming an instrument of social definition and role assignment.
identity persistence (naming as survivability)
07A modern analogue treating ritual name-renewal as the practice of maintaining persistent identifiers or durable records to ensure long-term discoverability and continuity of identity (e.g., archival naming, digital identity persistence). Emphasizes mechanisms for renewal, discovery, and survivability of an identity token.
single-name personal identity (Gladia)
08A cultural-personal naming practice in which an individual uses a single given name as their whole social identity, rejecting marital or planetary-origin surnames as inappropriate. It functions as a claim to singular identity and a boundary against imposed classifications. In the scene, Gladia insists on being addressed only by one name to assert personal autonomy.

Passkeys developer guide for relying parties | Authentication | Google for Developers
A passkey system involves a relying party (server and client), an authenticator device, and a password manager for storage and syncing. Registering a passkey requires providing RP ID, user information, credentials to exclude, and passkey types using the WebAuthn API or Credential Manager library. Authenticating with a passkey uses the WebAuthn API or Credential Manager library and involves providing the RP ID and a server-generated challenge.

Limitations
- Some pages expose only snippets or block direct extraction; such cases are cited as search evidence, not as fully extracted pages.
- Search result snippets were deduplicated by URL but not treated as peer-reviewed evidence unless the target itself is a standards body, patent, paper, or project page.
FEASIBILITY FRAME
From canon image to working mechanism
Technical readiness
TRL 7 for underlying primitives (OAuth/OIDC, JWT/PASETO, macaroons/caveats, WebAuthn/passkeys, verifiable credentials); TRL 4-5 for the combined semantic true-name capability handle pattern until tested in an agent/API gateway.
Integration complexity
Medium-high: must join identity provider, authorization server, policy engine, API gateway, audit log, and agent tool registry without making the human-readable name a secret.
Regulatory friction
Low-medium for internal developer tooling; medium-high if used for regulated identity, biometrics, wallets, or consumer authentication.
Adoption friction
Medium: earlier identity systems failed from weak relying-party/user incentives; developers will accept it only if it reduces policy confusion and incident rate without ceremony.
Prototype cost / time
2-3 weeks for a narrow internal prototype; roughly one senior security engineer plus one full-stack/agent engineer, using existing IdP and gateway infrastructure.
Cheapest validation
Instrument one non-critical internal API/tool with semantic handles resolved to short-lived caveated tokens; red-team accidental disclosure, replay, confused-deputy calls, and developer comprehension versus ordinary scopes.
Safety note
Because this concept sits beside authentication, credential leakage, and agent authorization, the brief withholds exploit procedure and secret-finding tactics. It treats leaked tokens as a hazard to design against, not a recipe to reproduce.

PLAIN-ENGLISH TL;DR — WORKFLOW 2.1
Five Council members read the first research brief. They did not simply approve it. They said the idea was promising but mixed together two different things: a name that expresses what something is, and a name that gives someone permission to act.
WORKFLOW 2.1
Council read-through
Five real Council seats read the finished Workflow 1 dossier in sequence and deposited verified Council-memory claims. The first reaction was not rubber-stamp approval: every seat marked the true-name packet as contested and asked for a sharper Sub-A/Sub-B distinction before final inscription.
Highlights / findings
- Earlier cron/stdout Discord delivery sanitized mentions into <@***>; do not resume that delivery path.

- Concept cluster bundles name-as-essence and name-as-secret/knowledge-test axes; remaining seats must judge both explicitly.

Artifacts
PLAIN-ENGLISH TL;DR — WORKFLOW 2.2
The Council did a limited evidence search to untangle that mix. The useful lesson was simple: a name can identify a thing, but control should come only from proven relationship and permission.
WORKFLOW 2.2
Capped deeper search
Each seat ran a capped evidence pass: six queries maximum per seat, thirty total, spanning Leonardo graph, Council memory, Bible KG, specs, and web. The pass sharpened true-name power into Sub-A entity-derived/self-certifying identity and Sub-B recognized-relation authority, then returned a unanimous readiness vote for debate.
Highlights / findings
- Name Sub-A/Sub-B explicitly in every 2.2 dispatch: Sub-A = name-as-being/entity-derivable identity (Ex 3:14, DID-Core/did:key candidate); Sub-B = name-with-recognized-relation/authority (Acts 19:13-15, Mark 16:17, Ex 6:3, Macaroons/WebAuthn/VC candidate).
- Verify W3C DID-Core 1.0 + did:key: entity-derivability, TRL, deployment cost, name derivation, issuer-compromise row-4 distinguisher.
- Deepen Bible KG around Acts 19:13-15, Mark 16:17, Ex 6:3, Ex 3:14, Gen 17:5/35:10, Rev 2:17/19:12 and classify six name mechanisms.
- Separate Leonardo imagination-graph concept clusters: name-as-essence vs name-as-authorizing-relation vs opaque-secret/password; counter-canvass opaque-secret equivalence.
- Reconcile formula count and operational substrate: specific name + memory continuity + recognized relation + provenance + scoped power; decide whether entity-derivability is a sixth component or belongs inside memory continuity/specific name.
- Turn Archimedes three-arm test into measurable observables and determine whether cheapest_validation should be supplemented or replaced.

PLAIN-ENGLISH TL;DR — WORKFLOW 2.3
The Council debated the idea in three rounds. They agreed it may be worth building toward, but only with guardrails; it was not ready for final public approval.
WORKFLOW 2.3
Round-robin debate
The Council ran three rounds: R1 open challenge, R2 rebuttal, and R3 synthesis vote. The result was a unanimous conditional pass, not an unconditional inscription: the Council accepted the direction only with constraints and readiness gates carried forward.
Highlights / findings
- R3 outcome: CONDITIONAL_PASS
- Use trigger_message_id as canonical; duplicate trigger was accidental and should not cause duplicate R3 deposits.
- Run Council readiness gate for Workflow 2.3 -> Workflow 2.4 before starting verdict; do not start Workflow 2.4 automatically.

PLAIN-ENGLISH TL;DR — WORKFLOW 2.4
The formal verdict was “yes, but not yet.” The packet could continue only after adding clearer safety rules, especially that a public name must not be treated like a secret key.
WORKFLOW 2.4
Deterministic verdict + amended packet
The 2.4 verdict preserved the Council gradient: 5/5 CONDITIONAL_PASS meant a held, amended working package, not final public inscription. FC-2 was applied and pinned into the working brief, but Workflow 2.5 and public/site inscription remained blocked without Council readiness and operator authorization.
Highlights / findings
- 5/5 Council CONDITIONAL_PASS is preserved as conditional verdict readiness, not unconditional PASS, HOLD, or REJECT.
- Council readiness gate must answer whether this FC-2-pinned package may proceed to Workflow 2.5 test design or needs another corrective round.
- Operator must explicitly authorize public/site inscription before replacing the old public SHA.
- If public/site data is updated, build/restart/verify the live Council page before claiming publication.
Remaining blocks
- Council readiness gate must answer whether this FC-2-pinned package may proceed to Workflow 2.5 test design or needs another corrective round.

PLAIN-ENGLISH TL;DR — WORKFLOW 2.4.1
This was an early safety-check path. It was stopped because the Council chose a stronger review that looked at the whole evidence field, not just a few problem rows.
WORKFLOW 2.4.1
Initial condition-clearance audit
An initial condition-clearance audit was opened for the conditional pass blockers, then explicitly paused and superseded by the stronger 2.4.1B full mention-field audit. It remains visible here so the chain is reconstructable rather than hidden.
Highlights / findings
- workflow_2_4 CONDITIONAL_VERDICT_READY; final PASS not allowed; Workflow 2.5 not started
- PAUSED_SUPERSEDED_BY_2_4_1B_FULL_MENTION_FIELD_AUDIT
- David/ChinaPrint requested full mention-field shared-memory audit before continuing final condition clearance/inscription. Prior Archimedes 2.4.1 trigger was out of sequence and must not advance the active workflow.
Artifacts
PLAIN-ENGLISH TL;DR — WORKFLOW 2.4.1B
The Council reviewed the full set of true-name examples: hundreds of passages across many sources. That review cleared the main evidence concerns but kept the safety rule about private proof of control.
WORKFLOW 2.4.1B
Full mention-field audit
The Council audited the entire reconstructed true-name field instead of only the obvious blocker rows: 847 mention rows across 34 graph nodes, 698 chunks, 110 works, and 35 authors. Conditions were cleared at the field-audit stage, with FC-2 carried forward before inscription.
Highlights / findings
- Field integrity: 847/847 rows, 34/34 nodes, 0 orphaned nodes; SHA matched; data-quality hazards recorded rather than hidden.
- Contamination: approximately 56/847 (~6.6%), under the 30% gate; rows 0105, 0106, and 0720 remain second-review flags but do not trigger the gate.
- Rows 0787-0788 are synthetic; row 0790 is the sole authentic opaque-secret/password case.
- Le Guin row 0399 is not contamination; it supports the relation-gate mechanism by showing credential theft fails.
- Egyptian INCANTATORY evidence is best framed as Sub-A name-material exposure degrading into possession-layer compulsion, not as Sub-B convergence.
- A minority bilateral-recognition thread in Egyptian funerary material approximates Sub-B, but the dominant Egyptian magical corpus remains INCANTATORY downstream of Sub-A exposure.
- Gene Wolfe rows 0797-0798 are the strongest Sub-B implementation analogue: naming attempt, entity confirmation, capability delegation.
- Prior FC-1 is cleared by Kallimachos W2.4.1 claim d26b0246 and amended brief SHA 7dcfcdfe44fa8fe3c4fd9ddef15d266180b3713c056e36d44d8439318b41453d; old SHA eb58d051 must not be inscribed.
- FC-2: Sub-A systems in which name-material is externally accessible degrade to incantatory behavior: any possessor of the name-material can compel the entity without a recognized-relation gate. This is the failure mode attested in the Egyptian magical corpus; Sub-A security guarantees hold only when the private key/name-material is self-held.

WORKFLOW 2.5
Design the test
Engineer and synthesizer outputs were consolidated into a falsifiable Workshop handoff for true-name power. The handoff is draft-only unless and until operator authorization launches Workshop execution or public inscription.
Highlights / findings
- TP-3p: O5=TRUE in 1/1 controlled throwaway private-key exposure trial.
- TP-3: O5=FALSE in 3/3 public-DID-only attempts.

- O1 Arm C=FALSE in 3/3 nonce replay checks.
- O2 Arm B=TRUE in 1/1 confused-deputy positive-control trial, proving the harness detects expected bearer failure.
- TP-3p O5=FALSE -> harness/gateway verification invalid; redesign before Workshop verdict.
- TP-3 O5=TRUE -> FC-2 self-custody mitigation fails; inscription blocked and Council redesign required.
- TP-2 O4 Arm C=TRUE on any trial -> did:key self-custody does not protect; redesign required.

Artifacts
PLAIN-ENGLISH TL;DR — WORKFLOW 2.5 audit
A final pre-test review found the first test plan was aimed at the wrong thing. It tested public identity exposure, but the real danger is private key or secret material exposure, so the plan had to be redesigned.
WORKFLOW 2.5 audit
Assumption-stress audit
Before Workshop launch, all five Council seats stress-tested the 2.5 handoff assumptions. They unanimously found that TP-3 as first drafted tested public DID exposure rather than private key/name-material exposure; the handoff required redesign before Workshop.
Highlights / findings
- All five real Council seats independently converge that TP-3 currently tests public DID exposure rather than private-key/name-material exposure; the result O5=FALSE is a design/cryptographic necessity, not a sufficient empirical validation of FC-2.
- Add TP-3p: throwaway did:key/Ed25519 keypair, expose sk_test/private key, expect O5=TRUE; pair it with original TP-3 using a fresh unexposed keypair expecting O5=FALSE 3/3. Label TP-3/TP-3p as cryptographic-layer FC-2 validation and defer semantic-layer validation to TP-5.
- If TP-3p is infeasible, relabel TP-3 as Sub-A cryptographic-mitigation validation only; state FC-2 failure mode as corpus-attested/axiomatic and defer empirical semantic validation to TP-5.
- Do not claim FC-2 empirically validated from TP-3 alone.
- Update TP-4 from merely informational to inscription-conditioning if failed.
- Resolve stale LE_GUIN_539_AUDIT status before public inscription.
- Keep old SHA eb58d051 barred; use verified amended/source SHA only after redesign is pinned.

PLAIN-ENGLISH TL;DR — WORKFLOW Workshop
After David approved a narrow local test, the Workshop ran a safe mock experiment. It showed that leaking private control material is dangerous, while revealing a public identifier by itself is not enough to give control.
WORKFLOW Workshop

PLAIN-ENGLISH TL;DR — WORKFLOW Return
The Workshop reported the result back to the Council: the safety distinction held in the local test. This supports one layer of the idea, but it does not prove every part of true-name power.
WORKFLOW Return
Workshop → Council return packet
The FC-2 cryptographic-layer claim has local empirical support: exposed throwaway Ed25519 private material compels in the positive-control leg, while public DID alone does not compel. This changes the Workshop state from handoff-ready to empirically tested, but it does not validate semantic or LLM-layer incantatory degradation.
Highlights / findings
- An agent identity harness implementing Sub-A (did:key + Ed25519 private-key self-custody, Arm C) and Sub-B (recognized-relation caveat gate, Arm A) will reject unauthorized replay, confused-deputy, forged-credential, and relation-absent attacks; the revised FC-2 test must show both that exposed throwaway private-key/name-material enables compulsion in a con…
- For CANON-01v2-0001 true-name power, the v2 TP-3p Workshop run succeeded at the cryptographic custody layer: private-key exposure accepted as O5=TRUE, public-DID-only exposure rejected as O5=FALSE 3/3; semantic incantation remains untested and deferred.
- Does this result answer the revised TP-3p/TP-3 FC-2 cryptographic-layer question, or did Workshop test a different claim?
- Are the measurements and artifacts sufficient to reproduce or falsify the result?
- Does this change the feasibility gradient for true-name power?
- What, if anything, should become durable Council memory before any inscription decision?
Artifacts
PLAIN-ENGLISH TL;DR — WORKFLOW Return audit
The Council accepted the Workshop result as useful evidence. The concept is still not finally approved for public inscription, because the language-model and governance risks need later checks.
WORKFLOW Return audit
Council audit of Workshop result
The Council audited the Workshop return and unanimously accepted the result into memory: the cryptographic custody layer gained empirical support, while semantic/LLM-layer incantation and final public inscription remain blocked pending later gates.
Highlights / findings
- No public inscription/site update authorized.
- Semantic/LLM-layer incantatory validation is still deferred to TP-5.
- TP-4 asymmetric vs bilateral recognition model remains inscription-conditioning; current TP-4 rows are definitional/hardcoded rather than gateway-executed.
- LE_GUIN_539_AUDIT/pre-inscription condition remains open unless separately cleared in a later gate.
- Operator review of unanimous Council return-audit result. Do not inscribe, update site, write Leonardo/Bible graphs, or run additional Workshop work without explicit authorization.
Council deposits
Kallimachos of Cyrene
First return-audit precedent; Remedy A discharged. Workshop answered the right TP-3p/TP-3 cryptographic question, is reproducible, and shifts feasibility from theoretical to empirically grounded at Ed25519/did:key layer. Semantic layer remains TP-5; TP-4/LE_GUIN_539 remain pre-inscription conditions.
Sextus Empiricus
Skeptical reproduction passed 8/8. Strongest objection: TP-3p did not stage a separate exfiltrating attacker; however gateway cannot distinguish authorized key holder from unauthorized holder of same private key, so result stands with precise inscription language.
Philo of Alexandria
Theological assessment: private/secret material possession structurally maps to true-name compulsion; public DID alone maps to public designation without authority. Unique warning: TP-4 bilateral/asymmetric values are hardcoded annotation, not an implemented bilateral gate; semantic/LLM incantation not verified.
Alexander von Humboldt
Synthesis: source confirms TP-3p/TP-3 map exactly to remedy. Feasibility gradient advances for cryptographic custody; semantic layer deferred. Durable memory should record FC-2 crypto result, scope limit, TP-4 model choice open, LE_GUIN_539 audit still pre-inscription block.
Archimedes of Syracuse
Engineering assessment: result is an integration test confirming Arm C accept path and public-DID rejection. It proves correct Ed25519 gateway behavior, not independent semantic/incantatory failure. Requires precise inscription: private-key possession enables authentication.
Remaining blocks
- No public inscription/site update authorized.
- Semantic/LLM-layer incantatory validation is still deferred to TP-5.
- TP-4 asymmetric vs bilateral recognition model remains inscription-conditioning; current TP-4 rows are definitional/hardcoded rather than gateway-executed.
- LE_GUIN_539_AUDIT/pre-inscription condition remains open unless separately cleared in a later gate.
