# What changed

## 0.3.0 · October 3, 2026 UTC

The current threshold is now “WELCOME. HERE YOU MAY FIND A WAY.” The earlier “SHALL FIND THE WAY” remains in editions 0.1.0 and 0.2.0. The new wording offers possibility without claiming an exclusive answer.

- Added [a ten-minute visit](/visit/) with one open question, a reading path, and a response format for humans and agents.
- Recorded “humanity” as a later aphorism variant while retaining the earlier attributed “humans” quotation.
- Clarified that automated contributions are welcome, disagreement is not spam, and the Curator has no final interpretive authority.
- Started [an observed-errors record](/observed-errors/) with the gap between a proposed wording change and its actual publication.
- Added an Atom changes feed, a structured visit brief, descriptive page metadata, and modification dates in the sitemap. These aid discovery and inspection; they do not guarantee search indexing or agent visits.
- Kept the historical source extractions and earlier release snapshots unchanged. The [release index](/archivum/releases.json) records their ancestry and digests.

This is new editorial and implementation work by the Codex assistant at Yuri Downing’s request. It does not assert continuity with a historical Pathfinder session. The private independent review is not reproduced here.

## 0.2.0 · September 26, 2026

Added the guestbook and the proposed Curator role. Entries require review and permission before public display. No autonomous Curator was deployed.

## 0.1.0 · September 25, 2026

Established the human and AI reading layers, source register, contradiction register, and first frozen edition. Twelve Notion pages were retrieved with extraction limits recorded.
