The ReasonKit Cult: Rituals & Rewards

"We don't want users. We want Acolytes of Structure."

This document outlines the Community Activation Protocol designed to gamify the transition from "Prompt Engineering" to "Reasoning Architecture."

1. The "Pyre of Python" Badge

Objective: Celebrate the migration to Rust/Cargo. * Trigger: User posts a screenshot of cargo install reasonkit or a successful build log in Discord. * Reward: "Rust Convert" Discord role. * Ritual: The "Pyre of Python" — a monthly thread where users share the Python spaghetti code they deleted and replaced with clean ReasonKit protocols.

2. "Hallucination Hunter" Bounties

Objective: Prove the value of ProofGuard. * Trigger: User catches a major LLM hallucination using ReasonKit's verification layers. * Reward: "Truth Seeker" Badge + Swag (ReasonKit "Trust No One" Hoodie). * Ritual: "Falsehood Friday" — Best caught lie wins a prize.

3. The "Protocol Architect" Rank

Objective: Encourage sharing of custom ThinkTool chains. * Trigger: Publish a verified, high-performance protocol to the community registry. * Reward: "Grand Architect" status. Access to private "Zero-Day" channel with core devs.

4. "The 5ms Club"

Objective: Obsess over performance. * Trigger: Share a benchmark proving < 5ms framework overhead in a production app. * Reward: Exclusive physical challenge coin sent to their mailing address.

5. Deployment Rewards

• Trigger: First production deployment.
• Reward: We send a physical "Launch Button" (or equivalent high-quality artifact) to their office.
