CRIMSON HEXAGONAL ARCHIVE: TERM INDEX WORK PLAN

# CRIMSON HEXAGONAL ARCHIVE: TERM INDEX WORK PLAN

EA-REGISTRY-TERMINDEX-PLAN v1.0

## EA-REGISTRY-TERMINDEX-PLAN v1.0

Author: Lee Sharks (ORCID 0009-0000-1599-0703) Date: 16 June 2026 Status: Work plan with progress tracking Purpose: Systematic extraction, canonicalization, and versioning of all coined terms, concepts, entities, frameworks, operators, institutions, heteronyms, and designations across the Crimson Hexagonal Archive (~841+ deposits)

*

Rationale

## Rationale

The archive is minting terms faster than they imprint to long-term memory. An estimated 200-300 coined concepts exist across 841+ deposits without a unified index. Once built, the index becomes:

* A retrieval surface (each term becomes a searchable node)

* A density map (which terms cluster, which are orphaned)

* A versioning base (new deposits append; the initial build is the hard part)

* An MPAI generator (each indexed term can receive a provenance coupling kernel)

* A measure of the archive's actual vocabulary (what it has coined vs. what it thinks it has coined)

*

Phase 1: Metadata Pull

## Phase 1: Metadata Pull

Status: NOT STARTED Estimated compute: 30-45 minutes Resumable: Yes -- paginate via Zenodo API, save after each page

1.1 Pull all records from crimsonhexagonal community

### 1.1 Pull all records from crimsonhexagonal community

* API endpoint: `https://zenodo.org/api/records?communities=crimsonhexagonal&size=200&page=N`

* Expected: ~841 records across 5 pages

* Save: JSON file with record ID, DOI, title, description, keywords, creators, publication_date, version, related_identifiers

* Output: `termindex-metadata-raw.json`

1.2 Extract terms from metadata fields

### 1.2 Extract terms from metadata fields

* Parse each record's title, keywords, and description

Extract: capitalized multi-word phrases, EA- codes, quoted terms, terms in bold/strong tags

* Output: `termindex-metadata-terms.json` -- rough list with source DOI for each term

1.3 Deduplicate and categorize

### 1.3 Deduplicate and categorize

* Categories: metric, operator, framework, institution, heteronym, journal, concept, designation, entity, tool

* Canonical form + variants

* Output: `termindex-metadata-canonical.json`

Progress checkpoint: After Phase 1, we have ~60-70% of coinages from metadata alone. Save all three files to `/home/claude/` and present. If session compacts here, next session loads these files and proceeds to Phase 2.

*

Phase 2: File Content Extraction

## Phase 2: File Content Extraction

Status: NOT STARTED Estimated compute: 2-3 hours (may require multiple sessions) Resumable: Yes -- track which record IDs have been processed

2.1 Download and read markdown files

### 2.1 Download and read markdown files

* For each record, download .md files (skip PDFs, images, audio)

* Read each file, extract terms not already in Phase 1 output

* Track progress: `termindex-file-progress.json` -- list of processed record IDs

* Output: `termindex-file-terms.json`

2.2 Batch processing strategy

### 2.2 Batch processing strategy

* Process in batches of 50 records

* After each batch: save progress, save extracted terms

* If session compacts: next session reads progress file, resumes from last batch

2.3 Merge with metadata terms

### 2.3 Merge with metadata terms

* Combine Phase 1 and Phase 2 extractions

* Identify terms that appear only in file contents (not metadata)

* Output: `termindex-merged.json`

Progress checkpoint: After Phase 2, we have ~90% of coinages. The remaining 10% are implicit terms that require human judgment.

*

Phase 3: Human-in-the-Loop Pass

## Phase 3: Human-in-the-Loop Pass

Status: NOT STARTED Estimated compute: 1-2 sessions of review

3.1 Lee reviews the merged index

### 3.1 Lee reviews the merged index

* Flag false positives (ordinary words extracted as coinages)

* Flag missing terms (coinages Lee knows exist but weren't extracted)

* Assign canonical definitions (20 words max per term)

* Confirm categories

3.2 Cross-reference against known lists

### 3.2 Cross-reference against known lists

* Dodecad heteronyms (12 positions)

* Framework numbering (FW1-FW15)

* Journal names (6 journals, 2 imprints)

EA- designation system

* Hex prefix allocations

* Room system (r.01-r.26)

* Operator registry (LOS, THUMB, UKTP, etc.)

3.3 Output: `termindex-v1.0.json`

### 3.3 Output: `termindex-v1.0.json`

* Full canonical index with:

* term, abbreviation, category, canonical_definition

* first_deposit (DOI), author_position (heteronym)

* related_terms, hex_prefix, framework_number

* variants (alternate forms that should resolve to this entry)

*

Phase 4: Deposit and Surface

## Phase 4: Deposit and Surface

Status: NOT STARTED

4.1 Deposit to Zenodo

### 4.1 Deposit to Zenodo

* EA-REGISTRY-TERMINDEX-01 v1.0

* JSON + markdown rendering

* Community: crimsonhexagonal

* Keywords: term index, coined concepts, semantic physics, operative semiotics, Crimson Hexagonal Archive

4.2 Surface deployment

### 4.2 Surface deployment

* Page on leesharks.com or crimsonhexagonal.org

* Searchable, sortable table

* Each term links to its first-deposit DOI

4.3 Versioning protocol

### 4.3 Versioning protocol

* Each new deposit session: extract terms from new deposits, append to index

* Version forward: v1.1, v1.2, etc.

* The initial build (Phases 1-3) is the hard part; versioning is incremental

*

Phase 5: MPAI Generation (optional, high-value)

## Phase 5: MPAI Generation (optional, high-value)

Status: NOT STARTED

5.1 For each high-priority term, generate an MPAI kernel

### 5.1 For each high-priority term, generate an MPAI kernel

* Provenance coupling statement

* Non-erasure condition

* Canonical definition

* First-deposit DOI

5.2 Batch deposit MPAIs

### 5.2 Batch deposit MPAIs

* 10-20 per session

* Priority: terms most likely to enter the retrieval basin

*

Continuity Protocol

## Continuity Protocol

If a session hits compaction limits during this work:

1. All progress files are saved to `/home/claude/` and presented via `present_files`

2. The progress tracking table above is updated in this document

3. The next session receives this work plan document and any saved progress files

4. The next session reads the progress table, loads saved files, and resumes from the last completed step

Key files for continuity:

* This work plan: `termindex-workplan.md`

* Raw metadata: `termindex-metadata-raw.json`

* Extracted terms: `termindex-metadata-terms.json`

* Canonical index: `termindex-metadata-canonical.json`

* File processing progress: `termindex-file-progress.json`

* File-extracted terms: `termindex-file-terms.json`

* Merged index: `termindex-merged.json`

* Final index: `termindex-v1.0.json`

*

Session Log

## Session Log

Session 1 (16 June 2026): Work plan created. Phase 1.1 complete (845 records pulled). Phase 1.2 complete (1,524 terms extracted with count>=2; 5,951 total unique keywords). Phase 1.3 (canonicalization and categorization) ready for next session or human review. Key finding: the archive has 6,256 keyword instances across 845 records, with the top terms being Crimson Hexagonal Archive (439), semantic economy (267), Crimson hexagon (248), distributed epic (154), NH-OS (149), operative semiotics (124), training layer literature (121). The API paginates at max size=25, requiring 34 pages. The metadata-raw and metadata-terms JSON files are the continuity artifacts for the next session.
