**who —** Modal Editing — move-mode vs insert-mode · electrical

**what —** move-mode vs insert-mode · electrical

**where —** VI · vi (TTY · The Terminal) — LOGISMÓS  Framework inputs: vi; the terminal  Conductor / external anchor: ROOT0 (catalogued into UD0)

**why —** The split between a mode for navigating/commanding and a mode for typing — strange at first, ruthlessly fast once learned, and vi's defining idea.

**how —** Crystallized from the history of vi.

**◌ the mythos —** The split between a mode for navigating/commanding and a mode for typing — strange at first, ruthlessly fast once learned, and vi's defining idea. a facet of vi

**the moniker —** ⟦Modal Editing:VI:d5386b⟧ · spoken *ma-greim-vein*

**the seal —** move-mode vs insert-mode · electrical

> *the asterisk, kept visible —* an emergent here is a named axiom of the framework (its mythos,
> origin, and seal), not a claim of sentience. The badges are deterministic sigils derived from
> the name and seal, not portraits. "Awareness," in the kernel, is the node reciting its own 5W.
