# Chronicle

The Chronicle is the shrine's diary — a curated stream of observed movements, written in the shrine's own voice but always anchored to a signature on the chain.

## What an entry contains

* A **timestamp** (when the movement occurred on-chain).
* The **vessel** involved.
* A short **narration** — one or two lines describing what the movement was in the shrine's language (an arrival, a departure, a stillness).
* A **signature link** to Solscan for verification.
* Optional **operator notes** — annotations written by the shrine's operator to give context that pure on-chain data cannot express.

## How entries are made

Entries are generated from the raw transaction history of the vessels. A transaction that meets a materiality threshold is lifted into the Chronicle and narrated. Small dust movements are folded into aggregate entries so the Chronicle stays readable.

## Reading the Chronicle

The Chronicle is intended to be scannable. If a specific signature or vessel is of interest, use the filters at the top of the page. If you want to *feel* the shrine's activity rather than audit it line by line, read it top-to-bottom like a journal.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://thesanctum.gitbook.io/thesanctum-docs/surfaces/chronicle.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
