— Contemplative Instrument
Structure for
Intention
An operative-symbolic instrument for structured intention, reflection and closure. Compose a sigil from four historical scripts, carry it through a six-stage rite, and keep an encrypted, tamper-evident record — all on your own device.

The Problem
Intention Work Often Lacks Structure and Privacy
Open-Ended Practice
Without stages, a practice has no clear beginning, sustained phase, review point or closure.
Private by Necessity
Intention texts are personal; most tools store them in the clear or send them to a server.
No Honest Record
Practitioners rarely have a verifiable log of what was done and when.
The Solution
A Rite With a Spine
Six areas of one workspace — Sanctum, Rite, Archive, Serdab, Guide and Proof — keep composition, practice, records and verification together.

Glyph Plate
Compose a sigil with Proto-Sinaitic, Egyptian hieroglyph, Sanskrit akṣara or Chinese radical scripts, using six composition modes.
Six-Stage Rite
Opening, Specification, Activation, Sustain, Review and Closure, managed by a rite state machine with a breath engine.
Sealed Operations
Intention texts are sealed with AES-GCM using PBKDF2 key derivation; exports contain encrypted payloads only.
Signed Evidence Chain
A hash-chained, HMAC-signed session log with a verify-chain action; sealed intention text never enters the evidence bundle.
Serdab Biofeedback
Optionally gate the Activation stage on measured attention using a BrainLink Pro over Web Bluetooth or Emotiv headsets through the Cortex service.
Proof Suite
Run the built-in self-test suite over the sigil compiler, cryptographic sealing, protocol layers, consent gate, state machine and evidence chain.
Architecture
From Specification to Closure
Compose
Open the Glyph Plate, choose a script and build the sigil for your operation.
Specify & Activate
Seal your intention, then activate — optionally gated by a measured attention threshold held for a set time.
Sustain & Review
Sealed operations stay visible on the Wall of Inscriptions, with a review horizon that marks when attention is due.
Close & Export
Close the operation, verify the chain, and export an evidence bundle or an encrypted operations file.

- Box 4-4-4-4 (16 s cycle)
- 4-7-8 (19 s cycle)
- Temple 4-2-6 (12 s cycle)
Computed with the app's own breath-engine formulas: the ring grows from 35% to 100% on the inhale, holds, shrinks on the exhale and rests at 35%. The fourth pattern, Coherent 5.5 (in 5.5 s / out 5.5 s), is not plotted.

Register Honesty
PER-ANKH is a symbolic and contemplative instrument. It is not a medical device and makes no physical-energy claims. The only instrumented channel is your measured, trained attention in the optional Serdab coupling. All content stays on this device.

What It Does Not Claim
Not a Medical Device
It is designed for reflection and structure, not diagnosis or treatment.
No Physical-Energy Claims
The instrument records what you do and, optionally, how steady your attention is — nothing more.
Local by Design
Data is held on your device; headset coupling needs a compatible browser and, for Emotiv, a local service.
