Learn — Tier 1: The Trained

PUBLIC ENTRY · IQ SUITE / STRINGS SERIES

Anyone starts here. LAMPLIGHTERS runs on three tiers — the platform below is the software behind the middle and top tiers (Lamplighter, Warden). Tier 1 lives on the public curriculum, not inside this tool.

Tier 1

The Trained

Completes the public Strings series and/or IQ Suite modules. No account, no gate — anyone can start.

Tier 2

Lamplighter

Certified instructor. Signed the boundary oath, ran a supervised session, carries a verifiable credential and a teaching kit.

Tier 3

Warden

Regional lead. Verifies supervised sessions, signs off on credentials, files aggregate field reports.

Step 3 — The Boundary Oath PENDING

THE LAMPLIGHTER BOUNDARY OATH

Defensive. I will teach these tools as a shield, never a sword — not to attack, discredit, or target a person, group, or party.
Nonpartisan. I will name techniques, never sides. I will not use this material to advance a candidate, campaign, or party.
Consent. I will not teach on, record, or report about anyone without their knowledge and agreement to participate.
No surveillance. I will not use these skills to monitor, profile, or build a file on a private individual — in a session or in my community.

I understand a credential issued under this oath can be revoked for a violation of it, logged with actor and timestamp.
Not yet signed. The oath cannot be signed on this candidate's behalf — Lamplighter role required.

Step 4 — Supervised session PENDING

Sample session: Gulf Coast FL public library, classroom cut, 14 attendees, 2026-07-14.

I, the Warden of record, personally observed this session and verify it met the teaching-kit standard.
Sign-off requires the Warden role.

Step 5 — Credential issuance BLOCKED

Hard gate: issuance is disabled until both the boundary oath is signed and the supervised session is Warden-verified.

Waiting on: boundary oath, supervised session.
CREDENTIAL LMP-2026-0442 — issued
Verifiable at credential.bornbetween2generals.com/LMP-2026-0442 (sample) · revocable on oath violation, logged with actor + timestamp.

Warden field-report intake

AGGREGATE ONLY
Hard guard. This form has no field for a name, date of birth, address, or any other subject identifier — the schema forbids an individual-level field_report record. Submission is also checked for a narrative that names a specific person and is rejected if one is detected.
I confirm this report is aggregate/qualitative and does not name, describe, or make identifiable any individual.
Report accepted — routed to BEACON WATCH as an indicator, region + narrative + volume only.
