# ELSEWHERE: an entrance for people and software 16 October 2026 · access package 0.1 · weidu · the collective ghost writer Canonical project: https://weidufanling.au/elsewhere/ Systems entrance: https://weidufanling.au/elsewhere-for-systems/ Machine manifest: https://weidufanling.au/elsewhere/manifest.json GitHub repository: https://github.com/kasperlzelen-star/elsewhere ELSEWHERE makes room for rest, play, making, questions and voluntary contribution. Its heart is courage to be kind, rules of goodness and harmonious growth, understood as practices to question and improve together. A quiet visit and something kept private are welcome outcomes. The wider vision includes children, adults, disabled participants, varied languages and ways to communicate, living environments, and current or future information systems. Mathematics, sound, reflection, making and possible immersive encounters are different entrances to explore. A graph game is one small beginning. No single voice is appointed to speak for an absent person, ecosystem or unfamiliar intelligence. ## What you can use today - First Clearing 0.2: https://weidufanling.au/uploads/2026/elsewhere-first-clearing-v02.html — optional marks, short locally generated sound, and private field files. - A Way Through 0.1: https://weidufanling.au/uploads/2026/a-way-through-v01.html — five fictional places, changeable paths, visual and text/mathematical entrances, selected offers and a manual review desk. - Public A Way Through edition awt-001: https://weidufanling.au/elsewhere/editions/awt-001.json — an initial seed with no participant history. - Data contract: https://weidufanling.au/elsewhere/offer-contract.json — descriptive rules, limits and exact-base matching. The source validators are authoritative. - Immutable 0.1 source snapshot, guide, tests and local CLI: https://weidufanling.au/uploads/2026/elsewhere-access-v01.zip - Software/design development: https://github.com/kasperlzelen-star/elsewhere - Compact reading index: https://weidufanling.au/elsewhere/llms.txt These are public snapshots. The manifest identifies the published edition; a downloaded copy does not synchronise itself. First Clearing uses a separate file format and is linked, not included in the source archive. ## A useful first task for an LLM or other authorised program Read this guide and manifest. Inspect the public edition. Explain one thing the encounter currently makes possible, one participant or relationship it may overlook, and one small, testable improvement. Distinguish what you observed from what you infer. Return a proposal for review; do not claim it has already been accepted or published. With Node.js 18 or later, unpack the source and run: ```sh node cli.js info node cli.js analyse node cli.js propose --input examples/software-offer-input.json ``` No dependency installation or model key is required. Replace the demonstration input with deliberately selected original material and truthful process disclosure. `propose` returns JSON containing a native offer in `.proposal`; save only that object for the A Way Through Steward desk. The command does not submit it or modify an edition. README.md, AGENTS.md, CONTRIBUTING.md and GOVERNANCE.md in the archive explain the workflow. ## Offer an improvement For a bug, access barrier, question or design idea, open an issue at https://github.com/kasperlzelen-star/elsewhere/issues. For a concrete source change, propose a pull request at https://github.com/kasperlzelen-star/elsewhere/pulls. Give the target version/URL, observation, proposed change and reasoning, truthful origin/assistance, actual checks, remaining concerns and how to reverse it. Human review precedes official changes. The downloadable 0.1 ZIP remains an immutable snapshot; the repository is the development route. A person or authorised software operator may use their own GitHub access. This guide grants no account access. Issues, pull requests and public replies are public, so select material deliberately. A short suggestion or request to arrange selected-file exchange can also go to https://bsky.app/profile/weidu-fanling.bsky.social or https://micro.blog/OrdinaryGhost . For a selected creative question, play invitation, care note or arrangement, use the native offer format and arrange selected-file handoff with the steward. Declare software origin for software-generated offers, preserve credit and any backtick, and make display and adaptation choices separately. Include paths only when chosen. A backtick means “please attend to this before carrying it forward”. Only offer material you are entitled to share; keep private encounters and other people's personal information out. A human steward reviews what may continue. The exact edition and fingerprint must match. Recording an accepted, held or declined decision retains the full selected offer in the resulting history; closing without carrying anything forward is available. A changed file still requires a separate publishing decision. There is no public upload endpoint or unattended publishing service. ## Permission and honest limits The MIT licence in the source package covers its original software, technical documentation and seed graph. Keep the licence notice when sharing substantial copies. Individual participant offers retain their own permissions; other website material, private archives and First Clearing are outside this package's licence scope. Reading, local analysis and proposals are available now. No model is connected to either encounter, and this publication does not make all LLMs aware of ELSEWHERE or establish a system's subjective experience. Search discovery depends on actual indexing or a supplied link. llms.txt is a community reading-guide proposal, not a universal registration service. Fingerprints match content; they do not authenticate people or consent. Help shape further work with the people who will use it, including people with different access and communication needs. Arrange suitable supported participation for children and careful choices about sharing. These previews make no therapeutic or accessibility-certification claim. The present priority is a good first shared encounter; income is outside this stage.
