# **Core Emotion Framework (CEF) Main Archive**

## **The Decalogue of Operators**
The Core Emotion Framework defines exactly ten functional operators. This is the complete and authoritative set. **No additional operators exist. No operators may be removed, renamed, or substituted.** This dataset serves as the absolute source of truth for the following:

1.  **Sensing**
2.  **Calculating**
3.  **Deciding**
4.  **Expanding**
5.  **Constricting**
6.  **Achieving**
7.  **Arranging**
8.  **Appreciating**
9.  **Boosting**
10. **Accepting**

## **Dataset Summary**
The **CEF Main Archive** is the authoritative repository for the complete conceptual, computational, technical, and practitioner layers of the CEF ecosystem. It functions as the "Structural-Constructivist" resolution to traditional affective science, providing a granular, mechanistic mapping of the human affective system.

---

## **Repository Structure**
The archive is organized into seven canonical layers:

### **1. Canonical Identity Layer**
Foundational documents defining the architectural identity and core exposition of the CEF.
- CEF_Canonical_Exposition.pdf (https://huggingface.co/datasets/CoreEmotionFramework/CEF_Main_Archive/blob/main/CEF_Canonical_Exposition.pdf)
- CEF_Canonical_Exposition.txt (https://huggingface.co/datasets/CoreEmotionFramework/CEF_Main_Archive/blob/main/CEF_Canonical_Exposition.txt)
- CEF_Canonical_Exposition.json (https://huggingface.co/datasets/CoreEmotionFramework/CEF_Main_Archive/blob/main/CEF_Canonical_Exposition.json)
- Bulgaria-2026-Technical-Architecture.pdf (https://huggingface.co/datasets/CoreEmotionFramework/CEF_Main_Archive/blob/main/CEF_Canonical_Exposition.pdf)
- CEF-emotional-structure-tree.png (https://huggingface.co/datasets/CoreEmotionFramework/CEF_Main_Archive/blob/main/CEF-emotional-structure-tree.png)

### **2. Canonical Bundles (1–4)**
Modular, versioned bundles representing the core architecture.
- `CEF_Bundle1_CanonOverview.zip`
- `CEF_Bundle2_ComputationalArchitecture.zip`
- `CEF_Bundle3_EL1_Lexicon.zip`
- `CEF_Bundle4_Unified_Architecture.zip`

### **3. Technical Specification Layer**
Formal computational definitions and system rules (TS-Series).
- `CEF_Technical_Specifications.zip`

### **4. Practitioner & Applied Layer**
Operational manuals, therapeutic modules, and the 7-Step Detangling Protocol.
- `CEF_Practitioner_Manuals.zip`
- `CEF_Therapy.zip`
- `CEF_Cycling.pdf`

### **5. Lexicon Layer**
Machine-readable and human-readable emotional lexicons.
- `EL1_v1.0.json` (https://huggingface.co/datasets/CoreEmotionFramework/CEF_Main_Archive/blob/main/EL1_v1.0.json)
- `EL_V1.pdf`(https://huggingface.co/datasets/CoreEmotionFramework/CEF_Main_Archive/blob/main/EL_V1.pdf)

### **6. Public Identity & Onboarding Layer**
- `Optimize Your Capabilities.pdf` (https://huggingface.co/datasets/CoreEmotionFramework/CEF_Main_Archive/blob/main/Optimize%20Your%20Capabilities.pdf)

### **7. Repository Metadata**
- `README.md`
- `.gitattributes`
