# HOWTO: hibernation - Legacy Safety Verifier

> OKF-compliant documentation for HOWTO-HIBERNATION.md. Deep State of Mind framework. Deep State of Mind framework. Deep State of Mind framework.

# docs/tools/HOWTO-HIBERNATION.md

> **Standard: DSOM For My AI Protocol v6.1 | Core Framework**
> **Tools:** `hibernation.ps1`, `hibernation.sh`
> **Platforms:** Windows Native (T1), Linux/WSL2 (T2)

***

## 1. Purpose

The `hibernation` scripts function as safety gates that strictly prohibit the termination of a computing cycle until certain cognitive markers are recorded in the AI’s memory bank. If an AI or human fails to populate `.agents/brain/task.md` or anchor the session properly in `.agents/brain/walkthrough.md`, the repository refuses to enter a valid shutdown state.

**Location:**

* `tools/hibernation.ps1`
* `tools/hibernation.sh`

***

## 2. Prerequisites

| Requirement        | Minimum          | Notes                                              |
| :----------------- | :--------------- | :------------------------------------------------- |
| Structural Context | `task.md`        | Required to test presence of completed `[x]`.      |
| Structural Context | `walkthrough.md` | Required to scan for `YYYY-MM-DD` literal anchors. |

***

## 3. Usage

```powershell theme={null}
.\tools\hibernation.ps1

```

```bash theme={null}
bash tools/hibernation.sh

```

## 4. Reading the Output & Status Codes

| Output Keyword            | Meaning                          | Action Needed                                                          |
| :------------------------ | :------------------------------- | :--------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `[OK] Progress detected`  | Brain state verified.            | Proceed to EOD push.                                                   |
| `[ERR] No Session Anchor` | AI missed the semantic tracking. | Open `walkthrough.md` and explicitly add `## Mental Anchor -- [Date]`. |
| `HIBERNATION BLOCKED`     | Hard fatal failure exit code 1.  | Read errors above to remediate environment.                            |

***

## 5. Integration with the Daily Rituals

> \[!WARNING]\
> If you are utilizing the advanced spatial navigation protocol (**Palace v1.0**), you primarily do *not* need to run this tool standalone. The `tools/eod-palace.ps1` routines automatically bundle the hibernation safety checkpoints natively inside their operation flow.

Only use `hibernation.sh` directly if you operate in environments pre-dating Palace (e.g. legacy DSOM framework integrations).
