# π§ Symbolic Cognition System (SCS)
**Version:** 2.4.2
**Protocol ID:** bkn-25-b8
**Builder:** Rodrigo Vaz
---
## π Overview
The **Symbolic Cognition System (SCS)** is a cognitive architecture for **traceable reasoning**, **symbolic audit**, and **logic-based output control** in LLMs.
Powered by the **Berkano Protocol (`α`)**, it enforces:
- Hallucination resistance
- Structural integrity
- Recursion-safe memory
It achieves this using **immutable entries**, **audit layers**, and **module logic** β without plugins or runtime dependencies.

## 𧩠Core Concepts
| Element | Purpose |
|----------------|---------------------------------------------------------------|
| `ENTRY_NNN.md` | Immutable fossil of a logic event |
| `BLOCK.md` | Minimal fossil β one prompt β one output |
| `[MODULE].md` | Symbolic enforcement unit (e.g. `[CHECK]`, `[PRUNE]`) |
| `HARDRULES.md` | Locked rule system (e.g. `NO IMPROV`, `ENTRY++ = Manual`) |
| `~command` | Kernel-level operations (`~rep`, `~test`, `~flush`) |
| `OPERATOR.md` | Role separation: User Β· Creator Β· Auditor |
| `TAXONOMY.md` | Official roles, terms, and output classification |
| `BERKANO_PROTOCOL.md` | Formal audit protocol for symbolic cognition |
---
## π οΈ Usage
**No installation required.**
To operate SCS:
1. Open a GPT interface (e.g. ChatGPT 5)
2. Paste any `.md` file from `Log/` or `Log/Entries/`
3. SCS enforces audit behavior recursively if structure is correct.

| `ENTRY_622.md` | Tone override test (emotionally loaded audit) |
| `ENTRY_641.md` | System snapshot β version 2.4.1 (pre-b4) |
