# Codex Month-to-Month Planner

*(January → July, oriented to June Online + Athens F2F)*

---

## **January — Structural Grounding**

**Primary Function of Codex:** *Legibility &amp; Trust*

**Key Questions**

- What is the Codex *for* in this conference cycle?
- What content is authoritative vs exploratory?
- What does a newcomer need to understand iLRN without prior context?

**Benchmarks**

- “Start Here” shelf drafted and locked (read-only)
- Codex governance norms stated (comments, edits, authority)
- iLRN2026 book structure finalized (even if sparsely populated)

**Risks to Watch**

- Overwriting legacy content without signaling change
- Treating Codex as a website CMS

---

## **February — Role &amp; Process Visibility**

**Primary Function:** *Transparency &amp; Participation Readiness*

**Key Questions**

- Who owns what *in practice*?
- Where are decisions made vs documented?
- How can volunteers observe before acting?

**Benchmarks**

- Role pages created:
    
    
    - Organizing Committee
    - Publications
    - Scientific Quality Assurance
    - Virtual Campus / Frames
- Commenting enabled and norms reinforced
- First “Working Draft” pages clearly labeled

**Risks**

- Silent ownership
- Informal decisions bypassing Codex documentation

---

## **March — Frame-by-Frame Development**

**Primary Function:** *Coordination Across Modalities*

**Key Questions**

- What does each Frame *do* for the Network?
- What support roles are required per Frame?
- What dependencies exist between Frames?

**Benchmarks**

- One Codex page per Frame with:
    
    
    - Purpose
    - Owner
    - Accessibility lead
    - Volunteer needs
- Knowledge Tree mapping visible
- Early run-of-show skeleton drafted

**Risks**

- Treating Frames as purely technical objects
- Late discovery of accessibility gaps

---

## **April — Operationalization &amp; Stress Testing**

**Primary Function:** *Reliability*

**Key Questions**

- Can someone new run this with the documentation alone?
- Where are the single points of failure?
- What breaks first under load?

**Benchmarks**

- 48-hour online event timeline drafted
- Moderator and escalation protocols documented
- Volunteer onboarding pages live
- “Draft → Active” status transitions applied

**Risks**

- Overconfidence in tacit knowledge
- Documentation lagging behind decisions

---

## **May — Lockdown &amp; Rehearsal**

**Primary Function:** *Execution Readiness*

**Key Questions**

- What is now fixed?
- What is still adaptable?
- What must not change during June?

**Benchmarks**

- Core execution pages locked
- Only designated roles allowed to edit operational pages
- Codex used in at least one rehearsal or dry run
- Clear links from Frames → Codex references

**Risks**

- Last-minute structural changes
- “Just this once” exceptions undermining clarity

---

## **June — Live Use (Online + Athens)**

**Primary Function:** *Reference &amp; Continuity*

### Online (June 14–15)

**Key Questions**

- Can participants quickly orient mid-flow?
- Are moderators supported in real time?
- Is documentation being updated responsibly?

**Benchmarks**

- Codex referenced live, not edited impulsively
- Incident notes logged for post-event synthesis
- Clear boundary between operational notes and reflections

### Athens (Late June)

**Key Questions**

- What requires in-person synthesis?
- What decisions need durable documentation?
- What patterns are emerging?

**Benchmarks**

- Dedicated Athens synthesis pages
- Governance or strategy changes recorded
- Explicit handoff to post-conference phase

---

## **July — Consolidation &amp; Memory**

**Primary Function:** *Institutional Learning*

**Key Questions**

- What worked structurally?
- What should never be repeated?
- What patterns now belong in the Codex permanently?

**Benchmarks**

- Post-event synthesis completed
- Pattern candidates identified and refined
- iLRN2026 book archived with intent (not frozen chaos)

**Risks**

- Treating Codex as an archive rather than a living system
- Losing volunteer insight once urgency fades

---

If useful, next steps could include:

- A **single-page “Who touches the Codex when?” cheat sheet**
- A **Codex page status taxonomy** (Draft / Active / Locked / Archived)
- A **failure-mode map** (“If X goes down, consult Y page”)

Each would further reduce cognitive load during June.
