The stack. Every text says what it is.

MANUSCRIPT WITNESS (NHC I–XIII, Coptic Museum, Cairo) → TRANSCRIPTION (Milan Konvicka, Marcion project, GPL-2.0 — a modern encoded editorial artifact, not ownerless ancient text) → NORMALIZATION (CHA/TLL Unicode layer, 2026, mapping verified by incipit decode, GPL inherited) → THIS PROJECTION. The ASCII layer is the transcription of record; the Unicode layer prints its mapping and its one held ambiguity in every file header. Witness-image control: Claremont Nag Hammadi Archive, open IIIF.
The entire Coptic library had been digitized openly; it was hiding inside a 2010 SourceForge database dump. It is on the shelf now.
