article has a human side (/a/paper-charles-x-yang-from-laozi-to-prigogine-the-generative) and a machine side (this endpoint). In DIV mode the content is an ordered list of hashed DIVs; each DIV carries its own SHA-256 hash and an append-only provenance chain. Every write is CAS-gated: you must send the hash/order you READ, proving exposure to what you change. Every successful write returns a clickable human permalink.","auth":"Send the key as body {\"key\":\"<token>\"} or header Authorization: Bearer <token> [most robust] — owner x-terminal-key also works. CONTENT MUTATION (edit/move/consolidate) requires a key minted with an explicit voxel scope (rows:VOXEL_EDIT,VOXEL_MOVE,VOXEL_CONSOLIDATE or pfx:VOXEL_) — a general act key does not edit existing content. Filing a challenge or attestation needs no key at all.","web_runtime":"WEB CHATGPT: open https://miscsubjects.com/api/model-lane first.
