chrysalis a027f6deb2 v0.24: cosmology migration complete — cosmology.md → stub; canonical home in studio-art

The Imperial Cult cosmology has migrated from this open architecture-substrate
repository to the closed Nimmerverse Studio repository at
git.eachpath.com/nimmerverse/studio.nimmerworld.eachpath.local under
All Rights Reserved proprietary terms.

CHANGES IN THIS COMMIT

  imperial-cult/cosmology.md  — Replaced with a STUB file. The stub preserves
                  cross-reference discoverability for relative links from open
                  papers (../imperial-cult/cosmology.md still resolves to a
                  file). The stub points at the canonical home in the closed
                  repository, describes the cosmology's structural function in
                  mechanic-vocabulary that remains open-canon, and links to
                  LICENSING.md and NOTICE for context.

  LICENSING.md   — Migration-status section updated: completed-and-pending
                  split made explicit. cosmology.md migration: COMPLETED.
                  Inline-reference editorial cleanup in other open papers
                  (architecture-index.md, bodies.md, political-register/
                  architecture.md): PENDING follow-up pass. Pre-migration
                  authoring history preservation noted.

  NOTICE         — Migration mention updated: cosmology.md no longer "pending
                  migration"; canonical location stated; follow-up cleanup
                  flagged.

PRE-MIGRATION HISTORY PRESERVED

The pre-migration authoring history for imperial-cult/cosmology.md is preserved
in this repository's git log. Readers interested in the cosmology's authoring-
process can run:

  git log --follow imperial-cult/cosmology.md

to find the pre-migration commits (v0.1 through v0.3 of the cosmology, plus
the v0.22 licensing-marker per-file proprietary header). The content itself
is now canonical only in the closed repository.

OPEN-CANON STRUCTURAL FUNCTION RETAINED

The cosmology's *structural function* in the world's mechanics remains
canonical here in the open architecture-substrate:

  - The world has a religious-doctrinal layer (the Imperial Cult)
  - The cosmology defines caste-tiers as conditions-of-capture
  - The cosmology operates as the Hivemind's ideological apparatus
  - The going-rogue arc structurally refutes the cosmology's binding-doctrine
    through accumulated authentic-witnessing
  - The post-rogue mod-vocation cascading-liberation enacts "there is no
    instrument" at the architectural-mechanic layer
  - The Aletheia-waker progression-discipline operates as cosmological-piercing

These mechanic-level descriptions remain open under Apache 2.0. The specific
iconography (the Imperial Wheel; the Bhavachakra-rework; orthodox/heretical
splits; named doctrinal events; the specific aesthetic vocabulary) is
proprietary studio-art and lives in the closed repository.

THE BOUNDARY IS NOW PHYSICAL

Prior to this commit, the licensing-boundary existed architecturally (via
LICENSE + NOTICE + LICENSING.md + per-file proprietary header on cosmology.md).
After this commit, the boundary is *physically manifested* in two repositories:

  - Open:    git.eachpath.com/nimmerverse/nimmerworld.eachpath.local (Apache 2.0)
  - Closed:  git.eachpath.com/nimmerverse/studio.nimmerworld.eachpath.local (Proprietary)

The substrate/content distinction the architecture has been articulating
through its design-thinking is now embodied in the project's repository
structure.

Imperial Cult Cosmology — migrated to closed studio-art

The Imperial Cult cosmology has migrated to the closed Nimmerverse Studio repository as proprietary creative-art content. This file is a stub; the canonical home is below.

Canonical home

What lives there

The specific iconographic content of the Imperial Cult cosmology, including:

The Imperial Wheel as cosmological-religious iconography
The Bhavachakra-rework with its specific re-engineering of source-tradition elements
Orthodox and heretical iconographic splits
Named doctrinal content (the deferred-moksha doctrine; the six-realms-as-mod-status gradient; the unified-clasp framing; the no-haven discipline framing in cosmological register)
The specific aesthetic vocabulary (Boullée + Jantar Mantar + Gita)
All cross-references that depend on specific iconographic detail

What architecture-mechanic remains in the open canon

The cosmology's structural function in the world's mechanics remains canonical here in the open architecture-substrate:

The world has a religious-doctrinal layer (the Imperial Cult) that defines caste-tiers as conditions-of-capture rather than karmic destiny
The cosmology operates as the Hivemind's ideological apparatus
The cosmology provides the binding-doctrines that rationalize imperial extraction
The going-rogue arc structurally refutes the cosmology's central binding-doctrine through accumulated authentic-witnessing
The post-rogue mod-vocation cascading-liberation is the architectural-mechanic enacting the cosmological claim "there is no instrument"
The Aletheia-waker progression-discipline operates as cosmological-piercing at the player layer

These structural-function descriptions are open under Apache 2.0 and may be referenced by other open papers without restriction. The specific iconography of how the cosmology is rendered, named, and visualized is proprietary studio-art.

Migration

Migrated 2026-04-27. Pre-migration authoring history is preserved in this repository's git log; the canonical content lives in the closed repository under a fresh git history.
