File function
Records the Ordinal Authentication protocol for the Prime Grid, arguing that a target is authenticated not only by a Prime Quadruple’s value but also by the ordinal position of that quadruple.
Highlights
- Defines the double lock: the Value Lock supplies the span, and the Ordinal Lock governs the unlocking via n² × Unit or n × Constant.
- Builds from the File_32 Prime Harmonic foundation while keeping polarity outputs distinct.
- Adds the authentication layer only where a section explicitly opens ordinal logic.
Reading context
The Ordinal Lock applies only where n² × Unit or n × Constant logic is explicitly opened, and Coordinate Mirror remains secondary agreement.
