Historical evidence does not become an executable method until its own corpus, procedure, and rights boundary are closed.
OmenHall Open Book
EXECUTABLEContemporary OmenHall-authored corpus. Line selection is independent of the question and occurs before interpretation.
This is not historical bibliomancy and not a quotation from an external book.

My Physical Book
EXECUTABLE_USER_OPERATEDThe user chooses the book and performs the physical opening/line selection; OmenHall records it without pretending to have randomized it.
Physical opening is not claimed to be uniformly distributed.

Fāl-e Hāfeẓ
SCHOLAR_FAIL_CLOSEDThe bounded Qazvini–Ghani 1941 / Perseus witness is exact-byte verified; the 495-ghazal topology and hash-only integrity manifest are pinned, the dormant uniform engine is verified, and historical fal/shahed variants remain separate.
The sandbox technology is frozen at its machine ceiling. Rights/cultural human sign-off, external Preview, promotion, and customer presentation are deferred to the later release phase after site-wide technology closure.

Safavid Fālnāma
SCHOLAR_FAIL_CLOSEDTopkapı H.1702 is the primary Persian manuscript witness. The sandbox closes 59 illustrated folios, 58 structural image-to-facing-text candidates, and 8 individually verified pairs; the exact Persian prognostication corpus remains source-dependent.
The profile is frozen at the sandbox source-access ceiling: eligible opening count remains null, 50 structural pairs are not promoted to page-verified, and the illustration count is not converted into an executable pool.

Vergilianae sortes: Historia Augusta
CASE_EXPLORER_ONLYThe Historia Augusta preserves a late-antique literary cluster in which rulers receive sortes/oracles containing Virgilian verses. The direct loci are catalogued, but random opening of a Virgil codex is not attested in them.
This is a case explorer, not an ancient executable algorithm: modern philology treats the episodes as artificial/fictive and specifically rejects reading the HA as evidence for random book opening.

Vergilianae sortes: Biondo aperto codice
SCHOLAR_FAIL_CLOSEDIn Roma triumphans Flavio Biondo explicitly describes an opened Virgil codex and verses encountered by chance and taken as an augury. This is Renaissance evidence, not the mechanism of the Historia Augusta.
Codex opening is attested, but the exact order, verse-count, and start-line parameters are not closed; therefore no exact historical digital runtime is created.

Sortes Biblicae / apertio libri
SCHOLAR_FAIL_CLOSEDThe source family is attested, but its mechanisms differ: Augustine Ep.55, Sulpicius' Martin, Tolle Lege, Merovech 577, and Aquinas do not form one universal algorithm; Sortes Sanctorum is a distinct textual tradition.
The family profile is frozen fail-closed. OmenHall does not speak for God, claim uniform physical opening, or promote an individual historical case into a universal method.

Merovech 577: three books at Martin's tomb
CASE_EXPLORER_ONLYGregory of Tours, Historiae 5.14: Psalter, Kings, and Gospels are placed on St Martin's tomb; after vigil, prayer, and three days of fasting the books are opened and encountered passages read.
This is a reconstructed historical case, not a universal Christian procedure. Kings explicitly reports the first verse on the opened page; the same locator rule is not backfilled for all three books by analogy.

Qurʾānic fāl: manuscript-practice family
SCHOLAR_FAIL_CLOSEDQurʾānic fāl is attested in multiple forms; Iranica and Gruber show that simple opening, letter tables, manuscript instructions, esteḵāra, and tafaʾʾol cannot be collapsed into one algorithm.
This is a family evidence profile with no sampler. OmenHall does not claim one universal Islamic method or speak for God.

Safīna-yi Tabrīz 1323: fāl-i muṣḥaf
SCHOLAR_FAIL_CLOSEDGruber reports a specific duʿā-i fāl-i muṣḥaf dated 723/1323: purification, al-Fātiḥa, random opening of the muṣḥaf, the first letter of the seventh line on the right page, and lookup in a red-letter table with Persian guidance.
The procedure structure is closed, but exact manuscript bytes, the full response table, and machine page-line geometry are not local; runtime therefore remains fail-closed and physical opening is not claimed uniform.

The exact Is 1544 instructions/key semantics are not yet transcribed. The Safīna 1323 rule is not transferred into this witness by analogy.

Augustine: tolle lege
CASE_EXPLORER_ONLYConfessions VIII narrates an individual episode of opening the Pauline codex and reading Romans 13:13–14.
An individual case is not promoted into a universal bibliomancy procedure established by Augustine.
