Alignment Constraint Framework — Master Manifest
This is the control document for the archive build. Every artifact in the framework is listed
with its authoritative source, its destination path in the GitHub archive, its publication
status, its intended audience, and which object is canonical for citation.
Source-of-truth hierarchy (agreed):
- Published Medium text — final authority for wording and navigation on published articles
- Local REVISED Markdown files — clean base for the machine-readable archive (tables already in Markdown, not images)
- Medium pages — used only to detect final edits, not as extraction source
- GitHub simulations (
bethediamond.github.io) — canonical for toys; do not migrate
- OSF pages — canonical for public experiment records
- Uploaded
.docx/.md handoffs — source of truth for unpublished specialist material
Legend — Status: published (live on Medium) · forthcoming (written, not yet on Medium) · draft-gated (not ready to file/cite; behind gateway) · external-live (already public at its own URL)
Legend — Tier: T1 public · T2 core/field-facing · T3 series · T4 empirical · T5 specialist-handoff

Note: The DRG document reports a preregistered criterion that was not met (CI excluded zero in only 1 of 3 models). This honestly-reported null is a credibility asset — label it “prospective design; prior null reported,” not “result.”

All Tier 5 documents self-label “Stage 4 / LLM ceiling / nothing herein should be cited as proven.” The gateway page must frame this as epistemic discipline before a reader reaches any raw handoff.
