Kernel telemetry · operator console
Live reads from $EPISTEME_HOME/framework/*.jsonl and $EPISTEME_PROJECT/.episteme/reasoning-surface.json. Production builds default to fixture mode; set EPISTEME_MODE=live and point EPISTEME_HOME at your local kernel state to swap in real telemetry.
- T1
kernel-adjacent delete
A write or deletion under kernel/, constitution, or the manifest directory — any action that could silently remove a load-bearing constraint.
state · dormant - T2
sensitive-path write
A file path matches the sensitive-path pattern list. Fires on writes to reasoning-surface or protocol state outside the declared update window.
state · armed - T3
cross-ref > 2
The edited file is referenced by ≥2 other kernel files. Implies architectural blast radius; demands structural validator.
state · dormant - T4
unchanged since N commits
The file has been untouched for N commits, suggesting a Fence. Mutation requires a named reason, not silent removal.
state · dormant
No active reasoning surface
Run `episteme init` in your project root, then write a Reasoning Surface for your current core question. The kernel's guard creates .episteme/reasoning-surface.json on the next high-impact op.
Chain genesis pending
No hash-chained records under $EPISTEME_HOME/framework/. The first protocol synthesized on a successful op (Fence removal, Axiomatic judgment, Blueprint D firing) lands as the chain's first record.

The framework records its first protocol on a successful blueprint firing. Run a constraint-removal op in a project with episteme installed; Fence Reconstruction synthesizes the first protocol on clean resolution.
