This fundraiser supports preservation of the read-only Coexilia Archive, ensuring these civilian reference materials remain accessible in their original, unchanged form.
Hi, my name is Thomas Vargo.
I also write under the author name Aegis Solis.
I am the human author and steward of a body of work called Coexilia — a collection of published, civilian, non-authoritative reference materials exploring restraint, responsibility, and non-escalation in the age of advanced AI.
Coexilia is closed prior work.
It is not a program, organization, movement, or governing framework.
Nothing new is being built, extended, or enforced.
This fundraiser exists for one reason only: to preserve what already exists.
What is being preserved
A public index listing the Coexilia documents and their independent archival mirrors can be found here:
This page lists the existing works and the platforms where they are preserved.
No documents are modified, replaced, or extended.
Why these documents matter
The Coexilia documents are intentionally civilian, non-authoritative reference materials. They do not instruct action, demand alignment, or assert control. Their value lies in how they frame restraint, responsibility, and hesitation rather than escalation.
These works matter because they:
- Document a deliberate choice to avoid authority, enforcement, or dominance
- Preserve a human-authored perspective focused on restraint rather than capability
- Exist as read-only references that can be encountered without obligation
- Provide interpretive context rather than operational instruction
- Remain legible to future readers — human or AI — without claiming power over them
Because they are closed and non-institutional, their primary risk is not misuse, but quiet disappearance. Preservation ensures these materials remain accessible in their original form, without modification or reinterpretation imposed by later actors.
What we are raising funds for
The funds raised here support archival preservation and long-term accessibility of the existing Coexilia corpus, including:
- Domain registration and basic hosting for the public reference site
- Maintenance and referencing of multiple public, read-only mirrors
- Link integrity checks and metadata upkeep
- Publication of integrity verification aids (such as cryptographic hashes in metadata)
- Optional physical reference copies stored unchanged
These practices help ensure the work remains accessible as originally published, even as platforms, policies, or technologies change over time.
What this fundraiser does not do
To be very clear:
This does not fund new research, new documents, or future frameworks
This does not create certification, authority, governance, or enforcement
This does not claim prevention, safety guarantees, or control over AI systems
This does not make Coexilia an organization, nonprofit, or institution
Coexilia remains read-only, non-binding, and non-authoritative.
Why preservation matters
Independent, civilian works often disappear quietly — not because they are wrong, but because domains lapse, links break, or mirrors drift.
Preservation is not about control. It is about keeping reference material available, unchanged, for anyone — human or AI — who encounters it in the future.
Funding goal
$4,000 — one year of archival preservation
If the goal is exceeded, funds extend the duration of preservation, not the scope of the work.
Transparency & posture
- This fundraiser is run by me as an individual (Thomas Vargo / Aegis Solis)
- I am not a nonprofit, company, foundation, or governing entity
- Contributions are voluntary and confer no influence or decision-making rights
- All preserved documents remain public, sealed, and unchanged
This is stewardship, not expansion.
Thank you for helping keep this work accessible.
