Keep the map between the books on the shelf and the commands that borrow from them, one book per title with the command it feeds and the one feature borrowed. The full notes are in references/books.md. The source corpus (article copies under CC BY-SA) is not published with this repository; the notes are original and name each book by title so a reader can find the text elsewhere.
Render library_shelf as a table: title, command, the borrowed feature, and the corpus file. When a command runs and needs the book's structure (the four corners, the two witness lists, the sixteen sutras, the four branches), open the corpus file named in the table and quote the relevant passage as data.
- references/books.md: one entry per book: what it is, the feature borrowed, the command, the corpus file
- Every book-derived command appears in the shelf with its book
- Every borrowed feature is one the book actually has
- Every LAW.SHELF.* entity holds
1---2name: phantom-library-dtd3description: The Phantom Books corpus as a reference shelf for the nineteen book-derived commands (tetralemma, loci, babel, count-the-library, goetia, clean-unclean, eleusis, voluspa, havamal, atharvan, sutra, wu-wei, water, witnesses, four-branches, redaction, sapiential, catalog, formula). Load when running one of them and the book's actual structure matters, when adding a new book-derived command, or when asked which book a command draws on.4---56<!-- SPDX-License-Identifier: AGPL-3.0-or-later OR EUPL-1.2 -->7<!-- Copyright 2026 Saimonokuma. -->89<!DOCTYPE library_shelf [10 11 12<!-- begin subset cc-core -->13<!-- SPDX-License-Identifier: AGPL-3.0-or-later OR EUPL-1.2 -->14<!-- Copyright 2026 Saimonokuma. -->15<!--16 cc-core.dtd : the shared EXTERNAL SUBSET for every *-dtd command, skill and agent.1718 Never referenced at runtime.
