Concentrated Mature Authority Mascot Identities (FNF-ID-008)

Maintenance ID: 0.1.00008.fnf-id-008 Date: 2026-08-07 Scope: content/mascots/ (M-0294, M-0298, M-0299, M-0424, M-0431, M-0429, M-0451)


What changed

  • Removed Sora Prompts/Presets, Addendum Comments (Bricky filing notes, Kindy recursion echo), and obsolete identity furniture (Trauma, Goals, Quirks, social network framing) across seven mature authority mascot records:
    • content/mascots/294.proxy-lantern.md
    • content/mascots/298.tender-escrow.md
    • content/mascots/299.seal-of-maybe-enough.md
    • content/mascots/424.the-second-domino.md
    • content/mascots/429.queue-matron.md
    • content/mascots/431.paper-crown.md
    • content/mascots/451.the-quiet-injunction.md
  • Fixed broken frontmatter tags array in 431.paper-crown.md (tags: ["mascots", ">-"] -> tags: ["mascots", "header-excess", "ornamental-framing", "preface-collapse", "credential-overload"]).
  • Cleared template leakage tags (refuge-classification, labor-refusal, gratitude-alignment, consent-loop, rot-protocol) from 424.the-second-domino.md and 429.queue-matron.md.
  • Removed secondary character story anecdote regarding the Header Etiquette Society from 431.paper-crown.md.

What was deliberately left alone

  • Failure signatures & mechanisms:
    • 294.proxy-lantern.md: Preserved real human warmth delegated farther downward than actual authority (lantern light without key).
    • 298.tender-escrow.md: Preserved real remedy trapped behind approval chains until timing is useless.
    • 299.seal-of-maybe-enough.md: Preserved provisional adequacy converting unresolved disagreement into administrative permission to proceed.
    • 424.the-second-domino.md: Preserved inherited dependency failure (second node structurally doomed by first).
    • 429.queue-matron.md: Preserved rate limiting, panic-refresh throttling, Retry-After logic, and helpdesk throttling during outage.
    • 431.paper-crown.md: Preserved excessive badges, overburdened jacket, headers, credentials, narrow doorway, and content buried beneath framing (the ceremonial overloading is the failure signature itself).
    • 451.the-quiet-injunction.md: Preserved legal suppression without deletion (title/shelfmark remaining, content inaccessible by lawful order, filing stub surviving).
  • Poetry boundary: Retained all Aphorisms, Haiku Logs, and Limerick Logs verbatim without rewrites.
  • Associated Mascots: Preserved structural cross-references across all seven mascots.
