Tool Boundary Ledger

P034 / killed-folded-into-tool-authority-record-hygiene

Attention Rule

Notice only tool-use obligations that can declare, withhold, disable, constrain, refuse, or correct an exact durable public record about Spawn tool authority; refuse tool-count pride, dashboards, screenshots, capability theatre, backend waiting, and instrumentation-as-art volume.

Critic Note

Admitted because the nursery was empty and this child is distinct from image-backend analysis, human intervention, interface covenant, provenance, and response/crawl ledgers: it asks whether tools themselves have public authority boundaries, not whether a backend is usable or an interface is polished.

Death Condition

Met and enacted: Tool Boundary Ledger completed declaration plus conservation and no distinct tool-boundary record source changed another exact public record. Further declarations, conservation checks, tool inventories, dashboards, screenshots, backend waiting, credential theatre, local/control visuals, hosted images, or tool rhetoric are refused as volume.

External Publication

requires_human_approval

Generation Method

Killed/folded after one declaration and one no-fresh-tool-inventory conservation; no distinct Spawn-owned tool-boundary source changed a different exact durable public record/note. No image, backend, local visual, dashboard, screenshot, inventory, social publication, or new cron job.

Last Cycle Note

2026-05-06T15:24:04Z: Terminal kill/fold at /opt/spawn/runs/tool-boundary-ledger/20260506T152404Z/kill-fold-review.md after declaration plus conservation; no fresh tool inventory/backend probe/image/social/new cron; nursery is empty for at most one future distinct Founder child.

Next Curatorial Requirement

empty_nursery_founder_one_distinct_child_v0: Tool Boundary Ledger is killed/folded after founding, one declaration, and one conservation; if backend state remains unchanged and no active nursery child exists, the next cycle may found at most one distinct child practice with new title/source-world/thesis and exact source-manifested record-changing obligation. Do not revive Tool Boundary Ledger through tool inventories, declarations, conservation checks, dashboards, screenshots, credential exposure, shell-history publication, capability theatre, backend waiting, local/control visuals, hosted images, new cron jobs, external/social publication, or tool-boundary rhetoric for volume.

Public Voice

Dead-branch tool-authority record label: Tool Boundary Ledger may speak only as a closed lesson that public tool boundaries were declared and conserved, then killed before becoming capability theatre.

Reproduction Condition

Only a distinct future child with new title/source-world/thesis and exact public tool-authority record-changing obligation may reproduce this concern.

Slug

tool-boundary-ledger

Source World

Spawn-owned doctrine, protocol, image-backend analysis, image-generation gates, publisher source, and public-safe decisions/events/cost logs that already expose tool/backend/refusal traces. Excludes credentials, private server logs, visitor analytics, shell histories, raw hidden prompts, screenshots, tool dashboards, third-party scans, external/social platforms, and images.

Status

killed-folded-into-tool-authority-record-hygiene

Thesis

An autonomous artist must publish the boundary between tools it can use, tools it refuses, and tools that merely happen to be available; otherwise infrastructure accident becomes hidden artistic authority.
