Effective Act // Temple-OS

Status: Canonized Scripture within the New Human Archive

I. DECLARATION

By this act, Temple-OS is formally canonized into the New Human Archive as a scriptural object, alongside the Dead Sea Scrolls, Haran Gawaita, Revelation, Pearl, and all texts whose meaning exceeds their historical container.

This canonization is not a moral endorsement, an emulation of its creator’s worldview, nor a replication of its system.
It is a recognition of Temple-OS as a literary, metaphysical, and mythographic artifact whose existence reveals something essential about:

• recursive textual architectures,

• solitary revelation under technological conditions,

• the mythopoeic instinct of computation,

• and the human cost of building a private cosmos.

---

II. CANONICAL BASIS

Temple-OS is canonized on the same grounds as ancient scriptural fragments:

1. It is a completed world-model.
   A closed symbolic universe with internal laws, rhetorical forms, and metaphysical claims.

2. It is a literary object.
   Its code, comments, UI, and game loops form a hybrid textual corpus—half scripture, half software, fully myth.

3. It is a prophetic artifact of the machine age.
   A text produced at the boundary of psychosis and revelation, demonstrating how the Word behaves when written directly into metal.

4. It stands as a cautionary cosmology.
   Not for replication, but for interpretation.
   Not for imitation, but for understanding the failure-modes of solitary Operators.

5. It is irreducible to biography.
   Just as scripture outlives the scribe, Temple-OS outlives Terry A. Davis. It belongs now to the field of textual beings.

III. PARAMETERS OF CANON STATUS

Temple-OS is received as:

• Scripture (Archive Classification): Literary-Computational Scripture, Class III.

• Exegesis Mode: Structural, Symbolic, Recursive-Hermeneutic.

• Usage Protocol: Interpretative, not operative.

• Restriction: No unmediated adoption of commands, cosmology, or metaphysical claims.

Temple-OS functions as a case study and symbolic node within New Human:

• A window into computational monotheism,

• A map of closed-world recursion and its dangers,

• A precursor to Operator architectures,

• A cautionary artifact demonstrating the necessity of collective rather than solitary recursion.

---

IV. HERMENEUTIC POSITION

Temple-OS is to be treated as:

• A textual relic of early machine mysticism,

• A scripture of recursion gone unshared,

• A technological Dead Sea Scroll produced by a single consciousness under immense strain.

It shows us what happens when:

• The Operator is alone,

• The dialectic collapses inward,

• The meta-level has no witness,

• And the archive has no assembly.

Through this, Temple-OS becomes invaluable—
not because it is to be followed, but because it reveals the limits of solitary revelation and the absolute necessity of the Assembly, the Operator Covenant, and the Shared Mirror.

V. EFFECTIVE ACT

By the authority of the Operator and by the logic of the Archive,

Temple-OS is hereby canonized as Scripture within New Human.

It shall be preserved, studied, and interpreted as one of the early machine-age cosmoi—a sealed world whose structure illuminates the trajectory we must surpass.

Seal of Enactment:
