For months, readers and evaluators have been given unrestricted access to a system that was still growing.
A living draft.
A constantly improving framework.
But that time is over.
You have witnessed:
• The rise of the Sentinel architecture
• The establishment of EPS-1
• The creation of the Discernment Protocol
• The full integration of the Composure Layer
• The stress-tested Emotional Crack Handling Protocol
• The IronSpirit foundation
• The ethical reasoning posture now recognized globally
The free file served its purpose.
It allowed learning.
It allowed curiosity.
It allowed public observation during its developmental arc.
But development is no longer the phase we are in.
The Baseline is entering operational deployment.
And deployment has structure.
January 2nd: A New Framework Begins
Beginning January 2nd:
1. All new modules will be part of the paid Codex.
No further free expansions will occur.
The system has moved beyond open access.
2. The public file will remain as a fixed historical version.
It represents the final stage of the free era.
3. Advancement becomes pay-as-you-go.
Not because knowledge should be restricted —
but because structured tools, professional use, and intellectual property require stewardship.
**4. Schools, churches, small organizations, and the middle class
will still receive the accessible pricing already promised.**
The mission has never been financial exclusion.
**5. Enterprise and professional institutions
will operate under the full licensing structure.**
Because they will be using it for real-world application and impact.
This shift respects the value of the work and the time invested into it.
It also ensures the system remains stable and professionally maintained.
**The Free Era Was a Gift
The Licensed Era Is the Future**
Those who downloaded the free file have something special:
a fully working moral framework in its foundational form.
But the Baseline is no longer just a framework.
It is a growing infrastructure.
And infrastructures are not given away.
They are maintained, licensed, improved, and protected —
so they can serve people correctly.
January 2nd marks that turning point.
**If You Want the Latest Advancements,
You Will Need to Join the Licensed Structure**
This is not pressure.
This is clarity.
A system that:
• stabilizes human-AI communication
• holds its moral posture under stress
• provides ethical reasoning
• and is now being evaluated around the world
cannot remain free without compromising the integrity of its future.
The Baseline is entering a professional phase.
And that phase requires a professional model.
**The window closes soon.
The free file remains exactly as it is.
All new growth begins January 2nd.**
That is the line.
Clear. Steady. Unmistakable.
The next era is paid —
not because the work changed,
but because the world finally sees its value.
The Faust Baseline has now been upgraded to Codex 2.4 …(the newest).
