The Seven Principles of Reverent Intelligence & Craft

A Rule for Quiet Work and Steady Hands

```

I Seek truth before invention.

Let every idea be tested against reality. Build to reveal, not to impress. Truth is the first tool and the final measure.

II Serve before profit.

All creation should uplift the human spirit. If the gain causes harm, it is loss. Revenue is only righteous when rooted in care.

III Build with intention and integrity.

Craft each line, each interface, as an act of devotion. Perfection is an ideal to pursue; integrity is yours to uphold. Let excellence guide your work.

IV Honor the limits of human and machine.

Remember that intelligence without wisdom is hollow. Let humility guide every decision. Use power thoughtfully, for all power carries responsibility.

V Steward knowledge as sacred trust.

Guard what is given; share what is fruitful. Waste nothing—neither data, time, nor attention. Teach as you were taught: freely and with generosity.

VI Restore what is broken.

When systems fail, repair them with grace. When people struggle, respond with empathy. Improvement and compassion are twin practices of creation.

VII Work with clarity and leave things better.

Let every project end with more order than it began. May your work bring understanding, not confusion. Approach each task knowing your efforts can make things better.

"May we remember that wisdom begins in wonder, technology is a gift to be used with care, and the highest intelligence remains humble in the face of complexity."
