Cortex v3.2.3 — Transcend

Transcend (operational)

A capable agent can run Cortex from the packet alone, close with ritual, and keep the mirror bright.

What changed

• agent_protocol + instructions on every major door (CLI, context/1.1, nexus, MCP)
• Forced red modes: read_only / constrained hard stops
• MCP: cortex_activate, cortex_ritual
• Wrappers: ritual command
• Teaching: docs/TRANSCEND.md

Still refuse

• New organs / second DBs / auto-ARIA / glow-chasing / unsolicited foreign scans

Self-host only unless you name a path.
