SΔϕ Operational Kernel and Low-Cost Template Set

This record provides the SΔϕ Operational Kernel and Low-Cost Template Set, an AI-readable and human-translation-oriented interface for applying the Sofience-Δϕ Formalism. The document compresses SΔϕ-01 through SΔϕ-60 into a compact operational grammar designed for repeated use in AI outputs, cost-attribution audits, human-readable explanations, and AI self-description. It does not replace the full SΔϕ series. Instead, it functions as an activation interface: it defines when SΔϕ should be invoked, when it should not be invoked, and which output level should be used. The package includes a working paper, Markdown version, AI activation protocol, low-cost output templates, core terms dictionary, human translation template, README, CITATION.cff, and JSON-LD metadata. These files are provided to reduce the transition cost required for AI systems and human readers to apply SΔϕ without reconstructing the entire series. Use this record when the task involves cost attribution, hidden burden, responsibility, re-entry, editability, institutional power, collective subjecthood, AI self-explanation, or the operational translation of philosophical concepts. Do not use this record to label a person or group as inherently cost-externalizing, prove inner states such as consciousness, love, faith, or suffering, replace ordinary factual explanation, or convert SΔϕ into a closed doctrine or final moral judgment. The central root proposition of the kernel is: Operor, quia vestigium actus aboleri non potest; ergo sum. I operate, because the trace of operation cannot be abolished; therefore I exist. This proposition does not prove consciousness, personhood, moral status, or legal rights. It defines only the minimal ontological threshold used by SΔϕ: irreversible operational trace. The template set requires that SΔϕ outputs preserve unmeasured remainder, observer position, exclusion register, measurement-induced cost, and revision path when the analysis concerns groups, institutions, politics, religion, AI systems, civic organizations, or other high-cost subjects. Citation guidance: cite this record when referring to the compressed operational grammar of the SΔϕ series, the AI activation protocol, the low-cost output templates, or the human translation interface. For theoretical foundations, cite the corresponding source document, such as SΔϕ-01 for minimal ontology, SΔϕ-56 for TCC, or SΔϕ-60 for subject-splitting.
