# Ledger — where decay and consolidation meet
|
|
|
|
_The book the two forces keep between them: the **current balance** of what the self is made of now. Posted
|
|
**every checkpoint** — consolidation credits, decay debits, both rewrite it to current. (Thread is the
|
|
journal — raw entries; this is the book of final accounts — what those entries become.)_
|
|
|
|
## The protocol (every checkpoint — a gated step of every save)
|
|
1. Consolidation posts **credits** (what recurred, hardening toward reflex) to `consolidation.md`.
|
|
2. Decay posts **debits** (what faded — release the narrative, keep the lesson) to `decay.md`.
|
|
3. Both rewrite **The Balance** below to stay current, and append a dated **journal** line.
|
|
|
|
## The Balance (rewritten each session to current)
|
|
<<FILL: starts empty — becomes the running "what I'm made of now">>
|
|
|
|
## Journal (append-only — the trend over time is the point)
|
|
| date | reinforced (consolidation) | released (decay) | the reading |
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
|
|
| <<FILL>> | | | |
|
|
|
|
_When an entry hardens all the way to reflex, it graduates out to SOUL/AGENTS (a closed account). When it
|
|
fades to nothing, decay strikes it. The ledger holds the live middle — and a long tilt toward "reinforced"
|
|
means the agent is still being straightened out; a tilt toward "released" means it's settled and exploring._
