Prototype Line Canonical Record v1.0

Lineage, Version Status, and Boundary Definition for the Symbolic Mechanics Prototype Track

This record anchors the prototype line as a third track (theory / benchmark / prototype). It documents which versions are preserved, which are failed, and which are active, and clarifies that v0.1-B1 is the preserved base core while v0.2.1 is the first implementation-stable additive extension layer within a bounded Volumes 21–35 scope.

P1 | What this record is

This document is the canonical lineage record of the Symbolic Mechanics prototype track. It does not replace any theory volume, benchmark report, or implementation specification. Its sole function is to define the prototype line identity, version sequence, status of each major version, and the current active working boundary.

The prototype track exists alongside two other independent lines:

  • Theory volumes (Volumes I–XLIV)
  • Benchmark reports (Phase I, adversarial interpretation tests)

This record makes the prototype line visible, citable, and auditable as a separate archive channel.

P2 | Prototype line identity

The prototype line is the implementation-facing track of Symbolic Mechanics. It translates theoretical constructs (load, exit, sovereignty, scene, dark-field, etc.) into executable or simulation-capable structures.

Prototype versions are not full-system completions. They are bounded, preservable implementation layers that sit above a preserved base core.

The prototype line does not replace or rewrite the canonical theory archive. It extends, formalises, and tests additive layers under strict boundary rules.

P3 | Version sequence

Version Status Description
v0.1-A archived (preserved) First minimal spine; conceptual prototype.
v0.1-B archived (preserved) Refined core with basic load/exit structure.
v0.1-B1 preserved base core Frozen, maintained executable foundation.
v0.2.1 implementation-stable extension Additive extension layer (Volumes 21–35).

No version outside this sequence is recognised as canonical prototype lineage.

P4 | Canonical status of each line

  • Theory line – canonical, unbounded, 44+ volumes
  • Benchmark line – canonical, empirical, phase-based
  • Prototype line – canonical, bounded, implementation-stable milestones

The prototype line does not inherit authority from later theory volumes (Volumes 36+). Later volumes may inform future prototype versions but are excluded from v0.2.1.

P5 | What is preserved / what is failed / what is active

Item Status Notes
v0.1-A preserved (archive only) Not for active use
v0.1-B preserved (archive only) Not for active use
v0.1-B1 preserved base core Active foundation
v0.2.1 extension layer implementation-stable Active, bounded
Volumes 36+ theory not part of prototype Excluded from v0.2.1
Family-table / lineage / birth-order / role-allocation excluded Forbidden in v0.2.1

No failed versions exist in the prototype line (all preserved or active). Failure is defined as boundary violation or protected-distinction collapse — none recorded to date.

P6 | Current main working line

The current active working line is:

Preserved v0.1-B1 base core + v0.2.1 additive extension layer (implementation-stable)

v0.2.1 is the only implementation-stable extension above the preserved base core. It is not a full Human OS. It is a bounded, testable, keepable extension package.

All further prototype work (v0.3, v0.4, etc.) must preserve v0.1-B1 and explicitly define new additive layers without altering the base spine.

P7 | Boundary statement

  • Source extraction: Volumes 21–35 only
  • Excluded material: Volumes 36+, family-table, lineage, birth-order, role-allocation
  • Permitted use: Extension-layer execution, trace testing, validation runs
  • Non-permitted use: Replacement of base core, total-system claims, clinical application

The prototype line does not claim completeness. Each version’s boundary is fixed and auditable.

P8 | Bottom line

Prototype Line Canonical Record v1.0 establishes the identity, lineage, and active boundary of the Symbolic Mechanics prototype track.

  • v0.1-B1 = preserved base core
  • v0.2.1 = first implementation-stable additive extension layer (Volumes 21–35)
  • Later volumes (36+) and excluded topologies are not part of v0.2.1
  • The prototype line is a third independent archive channel (theory / benchmark / prototype)

This record is the master index for all prototype-related documents. It is neither a theory volume nor a benchmark report, but the canonical reference for prototype lineage.
