Interpretation methodology
A transparent account of what the system does, what it refuses to do, and where human judgment enters the process.
1. Context is gathered, not inferred silently
The intake asks about the dream, the person's emotional state, relevant relationships, and their selected interpretive tradition. Optional context is used only to make the draft more specific; it is not treated as evidence of divine intent or future events.
2. Retrieval is limited to reviewed source records
The dream text is converted into a search representation and matched against source excerpts tagged to the selected tradition. Records marked unverified are excluded. If retrieval fails or returns no reviewed source, Tabeerly does not ask a general-purpose model to improvise an interpretation.
Retrieval eligibility does not automatically make a record public. The smaller source-record library adds display-rights, named-owner, profile, metadata, and publication gates.
3. The model receives bounded instructions
The model is told to use only the supplied source records, cite their exact record identifiers, express uncertainty, and avoid claims about prophecy, the unseen, deceased communication, diagnoses, fatwas, or guaranteed outcomes. The result is an AI draft, never a scholar label.
4. The draft must pass two gates
- Structure gate: every response must match the published section and citation schema.
- Grounding gate: every cited record must be among those retrieved, and quoted or scriptural text must be present in that record.
A draft is shown only after both checks, encrypted persistence, and entitlement accounting have completed. Partial model output is never displayed as an interpretation.
5. Human review is a separate state
Eligible drafts enter a reviewer queue scoped to the reviewer's stated tradition expertise. A reviewer can approve or amend the draft, with the review record stored separately. The interface must distinguish pending, AI-draft, and human-reviewed states at every point.
A person appears in the public editorial-owner directory only after a separate identity, credential, disclosure, consent, and publication-ownership gate.
Known limitations
Source matching can miss relevant material; translations and classifications involve judgment; AI systems can still produce weak synthesis; and qualified scholars can disagree. Dream reflection is especially sensitive to culture, grief, mental health, and personal context. Tabeerly is therefore a reflective aid—not religious, medical, psychological, legal, or emergency advice.
