Changelog — Context Locking
Frozen Baseline discipline. Material changes only.
Version 1.0
Published: 2026-06-17
- Initial structural baseline publication.
- Definition of context locking established as a mechanism that preserves, constrains, or stabilizes contextual state across information processing, communication, or decision environments.
- Scope boundaries formalized (included / excluded).
- Structural phase model introduced (context identification → context boundary → context preservation → context lock).
- Context structure model introduced (context state, context boundary, context drift, context lock).
- Foundational source architecture introduced to document the progression from meaning and interpretation to formal contextual representation.
- Sources organized as a developmental chain spanning semiotics, context formation, sensemaking, decision systems, knowledge representation, and formal semantic structures.
- Contextual stability recognized as a foundational layer preceding entity identification, information assessment, validation processes, and propagation mechanisms.
- Mandatory legal, privacy, terms, and license pages implemented.
Status: Frozen Baseline
Change Policy
Changes are recorded only if:
- The definitional boundary materially evolves.
- A structural clarification alters conceptual framing.
- Primary institutional reference frameworks materially change.
- A compliance-relevant correction is required for accuracy.
Minor editorial, stylistic, or formatting corrections are not versioned.
Versioning Logic
Version increments follow semantic clarity rules:
- Major increment — Definitional or structural shift.
- Minor increment — Material clarification without conceptual shift.
- No increment — Editorial refinement only.
