# THE BEING — Ten-Book System Test

This is a **one-off, non-canon web demo** created to test the interaction architecture before the Termux Foundry is expanded.

It contains a fresh experimental corpus built from ten 3×3 image sheets. Each sheet was cropped into:

- 1 unique Book cover
- 8 unique illustrated Book pages

Total: **10 experimental Books, 80 illustrated pages, 10 covers, 2 Loose Pages**.

The public reader does not reveal the total size of the hidden library.

## What this demo tests

- Thought → Path → active Thread
- exact page-level Book excerpts
- maximum two free pages from an eight-page unowned Book (25%)
- full narrative quality in the free Thread; paid access unlocks breadth, not missing meaning
- Loose Pages inside Threads, with no Explore Book action
- FOLLOWING THREAD vs EXPLORING BOOK
- entitlement check before leaving the Thread
- Book exploration begins on the cover, then page 1
- exact Return to Thread position
- Book end returns to Thread and never chains into another purchase
- Touched / Owned / Read states
- hidden future Book names
- page-aware Map
- Pulse at Thread completion
- live canonical text layered over artwork
- private manifestation ledger / Being signals
- page-count pricing bands

## Suggested test questions

The home screen includes four deliberately supported questions. Try all four because they stress different cross-Book relationships.

## Upload

Upload the contents of this ZIP over a test directory on your PHP web server.

The ZIP deliberately omits `storage/state.json`. PHP creates it automatically on first use. The `storage` directory must be writable by PHP.

Open:

`index.php`

Health check:

`health.php`

No API key, Composer, npm, Python, database, or build process is required on the web server.

## Important

This corpus is experimental and **not canon**. Its purpose is to reveal what should be kept, changed, or automated in the Termux Foundry.
