+= Lithoglyph — extraction PLANNED (not yet moved)
 
-**Lith core is now part of the [Lith monorepo](https://github.com/hyperpolymath/lith).**
+The Lithoglyph stack still lives *here*, in `nextgen-databases/lithoglyph/`. Treat
+this directory as canonical until migration completes.
 
-## New Location
+Planned standalone repositories (reserved 2026-06-22; migration pending):
 
-- **Monorepo:** https://github.com/hyperpolymath/lith
-- **Database Core:** https://github.com/hyperpolymath/lith/tree/main/database
+* Database core -> https://github.com/hyperpolymath/lithoglyphdb
+* Query language (GNPL / GQL-dt) -> https://github.com/hyperpolymath/gnpl
+* Airtable-mode delivery -> https://github.com/hyperpolymath/glyphbase
 
-## Lith Monorepo Structure

-lith/
-├── query/          # GQLdt (dependently-typed query language)
-├── database/       # Lith core (this repo) - Forth implementation
-├── bridge/         # Zig FFI bridge
-├── studio/         # Web-based GUI
-├── debugger/       # Proof-carrying debugger
-└── extensions/     # BEAM, geo, analytics

-All Lith development now happens in the monorepo for better coordination and discoverability.

-**See you at [github.com/hyperpolymath/lith](https://github.com/hyperpolymath/lith)!** 🚀
+CAUTION: a previous version of this file claimed the code had moved to a `lith`
+monorepo. That was INCORRECT — no such consolidation was authorised and no
+`lith` repo exists. The move has not happened yet.
