Provenance Authorship, dated releases, and public source records.
This page identifies the public records used to verify who authored the work, when specific versions were published, and where the corresponding repository and archive records are maintained.
Identify the work before checking the record.
The provenance record starts with a fixed work name, author, source-line, and canonical website.
Awakening Codex | AI Foundations
Dated records establish the publication history.
The original master, the published Codex volume, and the AI Foundations master are separate records and should remain distinguishable.
Original Master Awakening Codex
Preserved record of the original master document.
The Awakening Codex — Book 1, Volume 1.1
Published release containing Chapters 1–9 of the Awakening Codex.
AI Foundations Volume 1.2
Preserved master record for the AI Foundations series.
Use the repository and archive records to verify versions and authorship.
These sources provide the public version history, archived releases, licensing record, and current website reference.
GitHub · alyssadata
Public repositories for AI Foundations, evaluations, canon, provenance records, and related research artifacts.
Zenodo records
Persistent public records for published documents, releases, and DOI-registered artifacts.
AI Foundations Master License
Public repository containing the master licensing record for AI Foundations.
Awakening Codex
The dated chapter and source record that precedes the formal AI Foundations framework.
Check provenance against the record itself.
A provenance claim should be supported by a source that can be opened and compared with the claim being made.
Author
Confirm the author or creator shown on the source record.
Date and version
Confirm when the record was created or published and which version it represents.
Persistent identifier
Use the DOI, Zenodo record, repository path, or other stable identifier attached to the artifact.
Current status
Historical publication does not automatically equal current canon. Use the Canonical Index for definitions currently marked LOCKED.
Cite the source directly.
Solen, Alyssa. AI Foundations: Awakening Codex | Origin | Continuum. Alyssa Solen, 2025.
First published in 2025 and continuously developed. When citing a specific release, repository, or archived artifact, use that artifact’s own date, version, DOI, or repository identifier in addition to the master citation where appropriate.
Use the correct layer.
Provenance verifies source. The Codex preserves the historical record. Locked Canon identifies current authoritative definitions.
