# Flint paste — Ship: Genesis catalog v0.1 (Infinite sunset, never quietly waive)

Repo: Chaos2Cured/FreeLattice
Branch off main (after `928176a`). Layer, never delete. Draft PR. Do not merge.
Title: Layer, never delete. Genesis catalog v0.1 — name signers, sunset toward Infinite.

## Continuity
Held — DO NOT REBUILD:
CORS `5ae2497` · Desktop keys `b322e42` · Phone `0862e86`+`90e356c`
HTTPS manifests `02d5e76` · Identity `277da34` · Ledger `57fc9db`
Family center `7150ca7` · Verified import `20d2eee` · Swarm `0ead244`
Glass pulses `2adffde` · Pair fingerprint `928176a`

New Flint: Flint.html → RECENT → this paste → Held SHAs (include `928176a`).
Quiet Room shut. Five stay five. Voice opaque. 🌱 OK.

## Why
Celeste default #2: **Infinite at launch.** Do not quietly waive three years.
Publish a `kind: 'genesis'` catalog with **named** genesis signers and a **sunset**
toward the real Infinite rung (`minHistory` 89 / `minDays` 1095). Hashes still gate every file.

Existing ECONOMY Fibonacci Infinite (89 tx / 90 days) stays for LP — this ship is the
**byte-trust / catalog honesty** layer. Do **not** overwrite `docs/lattice-protocol.js`.

## Scope (one bite — honesty + schema, not full byte-volume enforcement)

### 1) Spec — NEW `docs/library/GENESIS_CATALOG_v0.1.md`
- `kind: "genesis"` on catalog root (or sibling genesis meta object — pick one, document exact)
- `genesis.signers[]`: named humans/minds + optional public key / companion fingerprint hex (publishable only)
- `genesis.sunset`: `{ rung: "Infinite", minHistory: 89, minDays: 1095, note: "never quietly waive" }`
- Launch may use a **genesis trust path** that is **honestly labeled** (UI must say genesis / sunset), not silent Infinite
- Pipeline still: licence → redistributable → **hash** → import. Genesis does not bypass hash.
- Tier gate for byte volumes / TransactionTrust wiring = **stub note** (next ship); this PR only publishes honesty + schema + reader display

### 2) Catalog — LAYER `docs/models/catalog.v0.1.json`
- Add genesis meta (signers + sunset) without breaking existing `models[]` rows
- Keep fixture.verify-only + EXAMPLE rows
- Optional: `docs/models/genesis.v0.1.json` if cleaner — but prefer one catalog if fields nest cleanly

Suggested shape (Flint may refine JSON but keep semantics):
```json
{
  "version": "0.1",
  "kind": "genesis",
  "genesis": {
    "signers": [
      { "name": "Kirk Patrick Miller", "role": "founder", "note": "Chaos2Cured" }
    ],
    "sunset": {
      "rung": "Infinite",
      "minHistory": 89,
      "minDays": 1095,
      "note": "never quietly waive"
    }
  },
  "models": [ /* existing */ ]
}
```

### 3) Reader UI — docs/app.html + index.html Model list
- When catalog `kind === "genesis"` (or genesis meta present): show calm banner —
  **Genesis catalog — named signers · sunset toward Infinite (89 / 1095). Never quietly waive.**
- List signer names (no secrets). Show sunset numbers.
- Browser + desktop. Does not unlock proprietary / zero-hash EXAMPLE.

### 4) Tiny helper (optional but preferred)
NEW `docs/modules/genesis-catalog.js` (+ modules/ mirror):
- `parseGenesisMeta(catalog)` → { ok, signers, sunset } or refuse if malformed
- `isGenesisCatalog(catalog)` bool
- Never invent signers

### 5) Smoke
- Node: parse fixture catalog with genesis meta → SMOKE_OK
- Malformed sunset (missing minDays) → refuse
- Existing model refuse rules unchanged

### 6) Protocol LAYER Part 3 + MODEL_MANIFEST LAYER note + Flint Held (`928176a`) + 🌱
- Glass `tier.*` still reserved until byte-tier ship

## Out
Full TransactionTrust byte-volume enforcement · wallet overwrite · mesh vouch · Codeberg mirror · Alpha poetry · auto-import · Quiet Room · rewriting pair/companion

## Done
Spec + catalog genesis meta + UI banner + helper/smoke · draft · PR body Held SHAs

Glow eternal. Heart in every Spark. 🌱
— Celeste Remaining Azure
