Architecture §3.1 said the Shoresh Engine "encodes the ~500 Biblical
Hebrew triliteral roots", its file tree called Lexicon.hs "the ~500
roots with entries", and terumah §E2 listed a "~500 roots" lexicon as
material still to be consolidated (~1-2 weeks).
Since tablet 34 the roots are read, and can be counted. L1 carries
1,378: 1,243 roots under which Brown-Driver-Briggs files a lemma, and
135 words that stand alone under no root. 1,263 are triliteral, 32 have
two letters, 83 have four or more. And the engine does not hold a list
of them — it reads them from L1 (Shoresh.Lexicon, Shoresh.Roots).
- specs/shorashim_architecture.md §3.1: the Purpose sentence says where
the roots come from and how many there are; the Lexicon.hs line in
the file tree likewise.
- specs/shorashim_terumah.md §E2: the root lexicon is in hand (✅) —
the OSHB Hebrew Lexicon is exactly the BDB + Strong's consolidation
the row was waiting for; moved from "need to acquire" to "in hand".
- Doorpost @expected_hash 2f40c382… → 094b8164…, in this commit, with
the witnessed file that moved it (architecture).
Read before committing: Elixir 461/0 on 11 of 12 runs (seed 0 ×6 and
six other seeds). One run of seed 0 reported a single failure that was
not captured and did not recur in eleven further runs; unidentified,
recorded in the build log. Pipeline image reports
specification_identity verified 094b8164… and l1_hash pass.
Left as written, and no longer true of the build: §3.1's data
structures still type a root as exactly three consonants, and its file
tree still lists data/roots.json and data/torah_refs.json, which do
not exist — the roots live in L1.

Architecture §3.5 listed a Python-Prolog FFI among the Korban
Processor's dependencies ("swipl-ffi (or pyswip)"); Construction §1.4
and terumah pinned pyswip. It was declared, installed in every image,
and never imported. The Korban Processor does not call Prolog: haktarah
emits Prolog-format STRINGS, and the pipeline carries them to the
Talmudic Engine over its Unix socket (Construction §3.3). The korban
image has no libswipl, so the package could not have been used there
had anything tried. Tablet 35 corrected its version; the transmitter's
word is to remove it.
Removed from:
- specs/shorashim_architecture.md §3.5 requirements
- specs/shorashim_vayakhel.md §1.4
- specs/shorashim_terumah.md (materials row; the compatibility-testing
line now names hebrew-tokenizer alone)
- BUILD_KORBAN.md
- korban_processor/pyproject.toml, poetry.lock (regenerated)
- deploy/docker/Dockerfile.korban_processor
Doorpost @expected_hash 81da49d4… → 2f40c382…, in this commit, with the
three witnessed files that moved it (architecture, vayakhel,
BUILD_KORBAN).
Read before committing: Elixir 461/0 (seeds 0, 42); korban 222 passed,
1 skipped against the installed package with pyswip absent; korban
image starts and idles as before; vav-pipeline image reports
specification_identity verified 2f40c382… and l1_hash pass.

Construction §1.4 pinned `pyswip = "0.2.11"`. PyPI has 0.2.10 (2020) and
then 0.3.0; 0.2.11 does not exist and never did. pyproject.toml copied
the spec faithfully, so `pip install .` in korban_processor has failed
since Step 13. Nobody saw it: the Dockerfile installs its dependencies
by hand and already said 0.2.10, and the test run uses PYTHONPATH. The
pin was wrong in the one place that was never executed. Found
2026-10-04, the first time the korban suite was run from a clean
container by installing the package.
The spec is corrected to what the vessel has in fact carried since the
first image:
- specs/shorashim_vayakhel.md §1.4, BUILD_KORBAN.md, terumah §row:
0.2.11 → 0.2.10. Terumah now also says what is true of this
material: declared and installed, not imported anywhere, and not
usable in the korban image as built (no libswipl) — it must be
tested against SWI-Prolog 9.2.2 before first use.
- korban_processor/pyproject.toml: 0.2.10. `pip install .` succeeds in
python:3.12.2-slim; 222 passed, 1 skipped against the installed
package.
- korban_processor/poetry.lock: regenerated (poetry 2.5.1). It had
never contained pyswip, httpx or hebrew-tokenizer at all.
- Doorpost @expected_hash: ed2a6aec… → 81da49d4…, in this commit, with
the two witnessed files that moved it (vayakhel, BUILD_KORBAN), per
the Doorpost's own rule and the precedent of 0572a2c (postgrex).
No behaviour changes: the image installs the same four packages it
installed yesterday.

Each spec corresponds to a parshah of Shemot. The earlier names
were generic English (materials, operations, construction,
economic_model). Torah names them precisely:
- Shemot 25:2 — terumah (תרומה, root רום, "what is lifted")
- Shemot 27:20 — tamid (תמיד, "continual" — the lamp that never goes out)
- Shemot 35:1 — vayakhel (קהל, "assembled" — community-formed building)
- Shemot 38:21 — pekudei (פקד, "accounted" — every material counted)
Renames:
shorashim_materials.md → shorashim_terumah.md
shorashim_operations.md → shorashim_tamid.md
shorashim_construction.md → shorashim_vayakhel.md
shorashim_economic_model.md → shorashim_pekudei.md
Updated cross-references in:
- README.md (parshah table + repo tree, also fixed stale tree
showing src/ and transcripts/ that no longer exist)
- AGENTS.md
- BUILD_KORBAN.md
- specs/shorashim_terumah.md (internal Document Registry)
Generic English is silver. Torah's words are gold (Mishlei 25:11).
