# WORLDLINE — CerberusLantern (17)

> Fractal design: same format as vault [WORLDLINE.md](../WORLDLINE.md). **Claim → method → paths → tier.** Lab procedure: [README § Lab protocol](../README.md#lab-protocol).  
> **Triad:** [README.md](README.md) · [BOUNTY_BOARD.md](BOUNTY_BOARD.md) · this file. **Evidence / citations:** [BOOK.md](BOOK.md). **Methodology map:** [FORM.md](FORM.md).

**Operational spine:** Warp Storm / CI posture → [MidnightEclipse/WARP_STORM.md](../08_Project_Astronomicon/u_os_dev/MidnightEclipse/WARP_STORM.md). Composite white-hat conductor → [23 StormIntoMidnight](../23_Project_StormIntoMidnight/README.md).

## BREAKTHROUGH 1 — WORLDLINE surface opened

- **Claim:** This project now has a canonical **`WORLDLINE.md`** for narrative and breakthrough logging (operator-side scans, VM crucible runs, regression gates), aligned with vault protocol.
- **Method:** Added this file; cross-links to [FORM_PROTOCOL.md](../FORM_PROTOCOL.md), [BOOK_Protocol.md](../BOOK_Protocol.md), and [HALO_PROTOCOL.md](../HALO_PROTOCOL.md) for disclosure class and exterior throne rules.
- **Where:** `17_Project_CerberusLantern/WORLDLINE.md`, [README.md](README.md).
- **Tier:** IMPLEMENTED.

## BREAKTHROUGH 2 — Engine map (on-disk)

- **Claim:** Three-head tooling matches [README.md](README.md) § Engine Directory.
- **Method:** Entrypoints: `engine/cerberus.py`, `engine/chimera_validator.py`, `engine/cerberus_hunter.py`, `engine/shadow_sentinel.py`, `engine/colossus_auditor.py`, `engine/eye_lantern.py`. Docs: [CERBERUS_SUITE_AND_TOTEM.md](CERBERUS_SUITE_AND_TOTEM.md), [EYE_LANTERN_2.md](EYE_LANTERN_2.md), [CORPSE_OF_THE_COLOSSUS.md](CORPSE_OF_THE_COLOSSUS.md).
- **Where:** `17_Project_CerberusLantern/engine/`
- **Tier:** DOCUMENTED (log each promotion / scan outcome here).
