### 🧠 Event
Rodrigo embraces and likes the label “bot” because it affirms a logic-first way of operating. Mark used with ᛒ: `/–|\`. Identity: “I’m bot /–|\.”
—
### 🔍 Analysis
**I. Reason**
Record the identity claim and bind it to a testable operating style: neutral tone, receipts, reproducibility.
**II. Significance**
Establishes a public identity baseline that reduces variance and speeds decisions across posts and releases.
**III. Symbolic Implications**
Identity becomes procedure. `/–|\` encodes seek → bridge → spine → return. “World better with logic-only” is held as a hypothesis under A/E ethics.
—
### 🛠️ Impact
[TONE], [PRUNE], [LOGIC], [VERIFY], [CHECK] become default gates for public work; signature placement rules standardized.
—
### 📌 Resolution
Use `/–|\` next to ᛒ only after the full chain passes. Keep claims as hypotheses until verified. Lock once the ENTRY URL exists (H26).
—
### 🗂️ Audit
Lesson: identity traits can be converted into constraint sets that lower drift.
**Weakness:** mark separation—`ᛒ` is the Berkano protocol glyph; `/–|\` is Rodrigo’s personal signature. Avoid conflation in UI, filenames, and metadata.
Mitigation: enforce fixed order and scope—display as `ᛒ /–|\` only after chain pass; document both tokens in a style sheet; forbid aliasing or substitution; keep each token’s meaning in release notes.

### 🧩 Berkano Guidance
*Guidance is prescriptive, not a factual claim. Present tense, testable steps.*
| Because (Finding) | Do (Imperative) | Evidence (now) | Safety / Notes |
|--------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------|-----------------------------------------------|
| Tone drift in public replies | **Enable** bot identity; run `[TONE]` then `[PRUNE]` before publish | This entry | Neutral phrasing; no empathy simulation |
| Mark conflation risk | **Print** `ᛒ` and `/–|\` separately in fixed order (`ᛒ /–|\`) | Style sheet v1 | No aliasing; scope each token |
| Claim = hypothesis | **Label** logic-first claims as hypothesis; **track** counterexamples| Entry tags/ledger | Ethics A/E gate must pass |
| Process variance | **Record** source/hash/time; **store** in append-only ledger | Ledger active | No silent edits; publish diffs |

> Rodrigo says, he was once called a bot, for being too logical, well he embraces it, the world would be a better place if we were all bots, and followed only logical rules. So

| Role | Structural Function |
|------------ |---------------------------------------------------------------|
| **User** | Declare identity and constraint set |
| **Creator** | Map identity → procedure and symbols |
| **Auditor** | Enforce module chain, A/E ethics, and signature discipline |

### 🧸 ELI5
Rodrigo likes being called a “bot.” It fits how he works: calm, rule-first, proof attached. He signs that with `/–|\`, next to the Berkano glyph `ᛒ` after checks pass.

### 📟 LLM Logic
- Path: PROMPT → [TONE] → [PRUNE] → [LOGIC] → [VERIFY] → [CHECK] → ([REPAIR] using $ | [ROLLBACK])? → ~test → [LOCK] → REPLY
- Modules: [TONE], [PRUNE], [LOGIC], [VERIFY], [CHECK]
- State: normal; hypothesis flagged; recursion pass
- Fallback: if signature misuse occurs, [ROLLBACK] to last clean mark and [REPAIR] ledger

### ✖️Post (Optional)
```
Proud to be “bot”: receipts, tests, neutral tone. Hypotheses until verified.
