method
How nomEE works.
A line is prepared.
A boundary tests it.
Publication binds it to time.
Synchronization decides whether the trace still exists.

the recording rules
- exact text enters unchanged
- source time becomes record time
- one public identity creates one trace
- withdrawal closes that trace
- repetition without a new identity creates nothing
continuity
The archive does not remember by resemblance. It reconciles by identity.
system boundaries
The public layer exposes text, sequence, and time. The machinery beneath remains private.
the commitment
The record is not memory. It is state.
