''Documentation, non-normative; machine-optimized text: section FRONT MATTER AND CHANGE RECORD of the text published under the name GTP. Part of [[The Principia Machina/GTP|GTP]] and [[The Principia Machina/Hub|the TPM hub]]. Written against [[The Principia Machina/TPS/6.1 Scope and conformance|TPS 0.1.0, part 6]], the AGENT CONTRACT, which taken as a runnable instruction set is GTP and carries no version of its own (TPS 1.2.6). This text carries no version and no genesis line; where it and [[The Principia Machina/TPS|TPS]] differ, TPS governs (D174.1). Human-only edit (TPS 5.13).''
The text below is this section, verbatim; the whole text and its file fingerprint are on [[The Principia Machina/GTP]]. Human readers: [[The Principia Machina/GTP/Contents|the contents page]] is the map.

FRONT MATTER AND CHANGE RECORD
0.1 NAME. The Generic TPS Prompt. Short form GTP. The form is a
    specification, not an instruction set: no agent is bound by this
    document directly.
0.2 CLASS. Instruction-layer specification.
0.3 AUDIENCE. Whoever writes or audits an instruction set for an agent
    that works a TPM wiki, on any platform.
0.4 CHANGE RECORD.
    0.1.0  2026-09-17  Initial draft. Authored from the structure of one
           working implementation on Claude, generalised
           against it and stated without reference to any platform's
           mechanisms. Proposed; undeclared.
    -      2026-09-26  Relabelled under D174.1: non-normative
           documentation beside TPS, carried with TPS 0.1.0, part 6
           (the AGENT CONTRACT); no version and no genesis line;
           nothing owed on the DECLARATIONS page. Head and sentinel
           re-cut; no rule text changed.
