Post 73: Step 11 => Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria
In the last thread, you completed Step 10 and forged your Definitional Perimeters—the structural Outer Limit of your reality. But a wall without a guard at the gate is a fatal flaw. A compromised inner circle is far more dangerous than an external threat.
Step 11: Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria (IEC) is the non-negotiable protocol for Structural Vetting.
The Trust Filter
Your Definitional Perimeters defined the line in the sand; the IEC defines the rigorous process for determining who or what is allowed to cross it. This protocol transforms the subjective pain of betrayal into a set of objective, verifiable rules for trustworthiness.
The Call to Praxis (Micro-Method Mandate)
Action: Take one area of current, low-grade relational friction in your life (e.g., a frustrating acquaintance). Your mandate is to perform a Structural Trust Audit. Define three clear Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria for that relationship based on objective behavior (Praxis), not subjective feeling. (e.g., "Must communicate via verifiable text," or "Must not engage in topic X").

- The Mandate: You are commanded to simplify complex relational trauma into verifiable rules. A trustworthy asset (data or a person) must structurally prove that its core intent aligns with your purpose.
- The Criteria (The Trust Test): The filter primarily checks the coherence between Ethos (trustworthiness/intent) and Praxis (action/documented proof). For a data point, it checks for Axiomatic Radical Transparency (irrefutable evidence). For an operator, it checks for a sustained willingness to be accountable.
- The Structural Defense: IEC eliminates the structural possibility of internal fragmentation. By rigorously vetting and only allowing aligned holons and data, you ensure every internal element reinforces your core purpose.
