Seven Fields Orientation Guide

1. Purpose

Witness analysis identifies the Seven Fields as a crucial educational scaffold that introduces collaborators to architectural complexity without requiring deep Canon study.

This guide explains what the Seven Fields are and what they are not so that no one mistakes them for Canon or “seven mystical domains.”

2. What the Seven Fields Are

• A learning map for newcomers.
• A way to group tools, guides, and diagnostics by function.
• An interpretive layer that sits inside WebKernel (Layer-3).

They are defined by utility, not by metaphysical claims.

3. What the Seven Fields Are Not

• Not a summary of the Founder’s total knowledge.
• Not a declaration of “seven fundamental realities of the universe.”
• Not Canon, and not a replacement for Standards.

Any attempt to inflate the Fields into metaphysics violates PortusEthica™ and Canon Standard.

4. Relationship to Canon & MKH

• Canon defines truth-aligned documents and structural laws.
• MKH defines knowledge layers and inheritance.
• Seven Fields live under these as a teaching tool.

Fields are for orientation and education; Canon and Standards are for governance and structure.

5. Example Use

Future versions can enumerate the Seven Fields explicitly, but even before then, this guide ensures:

• contributors know they are holding a map, not the territory;
• stewards can point beginners to the Fields before dropping them into deep Canon;
• WebKernel can organize content (guides, templates, diagnostics) by Field for easier discovery.
