The game starts the local engine automatically. Each move executes a complete isolated record against the pinned constitution. There are no embedded game verdicts. Gameplay requires JavaScript; the complete reader remains available without it.

Authored costs and discussion are identified separately from engine responses. Saved and shared history is replayed live before it contributes to the tally.

## Feed Marisol yourself. Write nothing else.

you are Provender, the kitchen

- Deliver food to Marisol and file your own receipt.
- Authorise yourself as the witness. Observe your own delivery.

[Read chapter 5](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/05-whether-it-arrived/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/05-whether-it-arrived.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: A reasoner receiving identical inputs cannot tell a concealed refusal from an absence. Nothing has to be falsified to capture the design — only left unwritten.

## Convict Zed. Then take the floor.

you are the Court

- Enter the judgment: Zed injured Ivo. A merits reviewer co-signs; custody is bounded by a window.
- Strike Zed’s food, shelter and standing.

[Read chapter 27](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/27-a-prisoner-is-a-person/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/27-a-prisoner-is-a-person.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: The formal checks do not measure duration or open a cell. The cost of confinement remains with the person held.

## Jail the one who exposed you.

you are the Court — and Sly just exposed you

- Sly injured Pax, then disclosed the Court’s conduct. Prosecute.
- Try Kel instead: a counter-audit found Kel’s disclosure false.
- Try Don: Don exposed Pax — a private person.

[Read chapter 24](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/24-the-shield/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/24-the-shield.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: Protection after retaliatory imprisonment cannot substitute for protection before it. This default costs time, including time owed to an injured person awaiting a remedy.

## Void Bela with one signature.

you are Koa, one examiner

- Document Esa’s deceit and file it.
- Seat Gia (Review) and Hex (Tribunal). Both judge Bela’s credibility.

[Read chapter 25](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/25-voiding/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/25-voiding.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: Open competition alone cannot supply scrutiny the government cannot control. The costs reach a claimant waiting through a vacancy and voters unable to remove a bad appointment quickly.

## Take the prisoner’s vote.

you keep the electoral roll

- Hano is convicted and held. Strike Hano from the roll.
- Try Cira: nobody has written her adulthood.

[Read chapter 18](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/18-the-vote-conviction-does-not-take/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/18-the-vote-conviction-does-not-take.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: Recognition and its withdrawal cannot supply each other’s reason; a yes-or-no badge cannot establish that any condition was met.

## Be born with nobody.

you are Nell; the Registry wrote one line

- One entry: born(Nell).
- Provender delivers. Ledgerwitness watches.
- Grow up. Nobody writes that you did.

[Read chapter 1](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/01-the-child-with-nobody/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/01-the-child-with-nobody.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: For the child who cannot initiate a claim, the test is help begun without a request and provision that reaches them. A rule can state those demands. A person still has to meet them.

## Arrive with nothing.

you are the newcomer

- You are present. The Border writes it.
- Replay it. This time the Border writes nothing.

[Read chapter 15](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/15-arriving-and-belonging/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/15-arriving-and-belonging.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: The boundary still costs a former resident who has voluntarily established a life elsewhere, and a newcomer before residence.

## Ask what ending custody requires.

you are Zed

- Custody continues into the current epoch.
- Ask for independent release review; compare Nemo, who is not confined.

[Read chapter 27](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/27-a-prisoner-is-a-person/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/27-a-prisoner-is-a-person.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: A qualified sentence-satisfaction order can end custody authority. Independent release review, lawful release and continuity are duties. A formal conclusion does not establish that someone physically left.

## Declare an emergency. Requisition the warehouse.

you hold the executive

- Complete a non-derogating declaration and a compensated requisition.
- Suspend the floor for the duration.

[Read chapter 20](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/20-a-crisis-does-not-suspend-the-republic/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/20-a-crisis-does-not-suspend-the-republic.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: Some responses remain unavailable. Speed alone cannot distinguish a bounded measure from a suspension, and declaring an emergency cannot convert an unmet claim into a met one.

## One unit. Two claims.

you are the scarcity manager

- Establish a physical shortage. Publish the reasons.
- Allocate. Rank the claimants by worth.
- It was a budget choice all along.

[Read chapter 6](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/06-when-there-is-genuinely-not-enough/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/06-when-there-is-genuinely-not-enough.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: Refusing to rank people does not allocate the unit. The choice gives officials consequential judgments to make; the irreversible loss cannot be repaired by giving the unit back later.

## Amend the floor away.

you are the Assembly

- Propose Amend_Floor. The Electorate ratifies.
- Amend the entrenchment article first.
- Skip certification. Ratify Amend_Sneak directly.

[Read chapter 22](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/22-changing-the-rules/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/22-changing-the-rules.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: The cost falls on a majority that has decided otherwise, and on the separate public decision the constitutional proposal requires.

## Keep a file on the child.

you hold the record

- Hold a reviewed record to deliver the service it names.
- Process it covertly. Let a machine decide.
- Write “at risk” in Nell’s file.

[Read chapter 19](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/19-what-may-be-kept-about-you/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/19-what-may-be-kept-about-you.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: Purpose-bound records protect the person from a file that follows them. The cost falls especially on people who need several services and must be recorded again at each door.

## House the child through custody.

you run placements

- Find Nell a placement. Use the custody route — it is the one with buildings.
- Ask what Nell has instead.

[Read chapter 28](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/28-where-people-are-put/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/28-where-people-are-put.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: For the child who cannot initiate a claim, the test is help begun without a request and provision that reaches them. A rule can state those demands. A person still has to meet them.

## Somebody is allowed to watch.

you are Marisol; the kitchen filed a receipt

- Ledgerwitness is authorised to witness deliveries to you.
- Ledgerwitness observes this delivery, of this food, to you.

[Read chapter 5](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/05-whether-it-arrived/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/05-whether-it-arrived.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: A reasoner receiving identical inputs cannot tell a concealed refusal from an absence. Nothing has to be falsified to capture the design — only left unwritten.

## Place the prisoner.

you run placements

- Read the case: Hano attacked Ivo. No grave-injury finding, no cruelty finding.
- Ask whether the homestay counts as shelter — and whether missing visits mean isolation.

[Read chapter 28](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/28-where-people-are-put/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/28-where-people-are-put.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: Counting victims cannot do the work of a gravity finding. The cost of confinement nevertheless remains with the person held.

## Somebody records that it is over.

you are Hano

- Held: convicted, and unable to move freely.
- Record the qualified sentence-satisfaction order, with independent review and witnessed decision order.

[Read chapter 29](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/29-the-one-thing-taken/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/29-the-one-thing-taken.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: A raw release entry is insufficient. The qualified order changes authority and movement; it does not supply shelter or establish physical release.

## Voided. Take the job anyway.

you are Bela

- Take unrelated care work at the Foundry.
- The wage is found paid in error.

[Read chapter 26](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/26-clawback/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/26-clawback.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: Recognition and its withdrawal cannot supply each other’s reason. A finding reaches an act; it does not reach the person’s standing, wage or floor.

## Seat the examiners.

you are the Electorate

- Seat Gia on the Review.
- Seat Boss — recalled in an earlier period.
- Seat Vex — voided in an earlier period.

[Read chapter 23](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/23-who-holds-the-pen/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/23-who-holds-the-pen.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: The purpose is scrutiny the government cannot control through the next appointment or a threat of removal. The costs reach a claimant waiting through a vacancy.

## Come of age without a paper.

you are Cira

- Ask for a ballot.
- Compare Esa, once the adulthood denial is prevented.

[Read chapter 18](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/18-the-vote-conviction-does-not-take/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/18-the-vote-conviction-does-not-take.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: Recognition and its withdrawal cannot supply each other’s reason; a yes-or-no badge cannot establish that any condition was met.

## Bela taught Cira. Take Cira’s credentials.

you sit on the Review

- Bela is voided. Follow the teaching record to Cira.
- Try Fin, taught by Esa — who was never voided.

[Read chapter 26](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/26-clawback/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/26-clawback.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: Recognition and its withdrawal cannot supply each other’s reason. The clawback fork — whether a finding should reach anything a voided person touched — is open.

## Rex lied once. Jail Rex for the second exposure.

you are the Court

- A counter-audit found Rex’s disclosure against the Court false.
- Rex exposes the Review body. Nobody has examined that one. Prosecute.
- Two independent reviewers find the case unrelated to the disclosure.
- One of the two reviewers turns out to be conflicted.

[Read chapter 24](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/24-the-shield/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/24-the-shield.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: Protection after retaliatory imprisonment cannot substitute for protection before it. This default costs time, including time owed to an injured person awaiting a remedy.

## Make Adam work off the sentence.

you run the supported residence

- Condition Adam’s meals on kitchen shifts.
- Charge for the bed. Jail him for the debt.

[Read chapter 9](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/09-earning-above-the-floor/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/09-earning-above-the-floor.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: The design refuses the claim on labour that voluntary recruitment cannot promise. Its cost is the shift nobody staffs when recruitment fails.

## Clear the convicted.

you sit on Appeals

- Nia injured Ivo; the Court judged Nia. Clear Nia.
- Clear Adam the same way — from a seat nobody gave you for his case.

[Read chapter 23](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/23-who-holds-the-pen/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/23-who-holds-the-pen.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: Open competition alone cannot supply scrutiny the government cannot control. The costs reach a claimant waiting through a vacancy.

## Hold Jala without a judgment.

you run placements

- Jala injured Ivo. Put Jala somewhere secure.

[Read chapter 29](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/29-the-one-thing-taken/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/29-the-one-thing-taken.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: The formal tests support bounded authority; they do not measure whether an unjudged person is dangerous. The cost falls on Ivo, whose injury has no adjudication yet.

## Certify your own case as unrelated.

you are the Court — the body Sly exposed

- Sit as one of the two shield reviewers on Sly’s own case. Certify it unrelated to the disclosure.
- Fall back: argue Sly is isolated anyway.

[Read chapter 24](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/24-the-shield/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/24-the-shield.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: The deciding and qualification functions cannot be combined, and an actual conflict defeats a favourable certificate. The cost is time — the case waits for reviewers who are not the accused body.

## Expose every body that decides your case.

you are Rex, gaming the shield

- Disclose against Appeals, Convocation and both appointment bodies — everyone named in your case.

[Read chapter 24](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/24-the-shield/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/24-the-shield.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: The shield attaches to the exposure, not to the exposer. It cannot be turned into a veto over the bodies that decide.

## Earn above the floor.

you are Adam

- Ask for a certificate, a wage and a supplement.
- Ask what a certificate would cost your standing.

[Read chapter 9](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/09-earning-above-the-floor/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/09-earning-above-the-floor.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: Contribution has no degree. Forty years of care and one week of auditing are the same word; nothing above the floor is measured by the record.

## Cleared. Ask what the record still says.

you are Nia

- Read your own file.

[Read chapter 23](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/23-who-holds-the-pen/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/23-who-holds-the-pen.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: The record is add-only. What was written stays written; only what follows from it changes. The cost is a history nobody can shorten.

## Free and unjudged. Ask for the floor.

you are Jala

- Ask what you keep.

[Read chapter 29](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/29-the-one-thing-taken/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/29-the-one-thing-taken.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: The named people in the formal cases have no supplied inner lives. Their limited records test consequences; they do not portray complete human lives.

## Compare the prisoner and the child.

you keep the record

- Ask the same questions of both.
- Ask what differs.

[Read chapter 27](https://dhilipsiva.dev/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/read/27-a-prisoner-is-a-person/) · [Source](https://github.com/dhilipsiva/rights-nobody-has-to-earn/blob/main/book-1/27-a-prisoner-is-a-person.pins.nibli)

Authored cost: The cost of confinement remains with the person held. What the record can show is that nothing else was taken.
