Attribution note
Our register records no Siku verdict for this title, so none is claimed here. What is documented: the attribution to 黃石公 is treated as unverifiable 作者存疑, and the text as we have it reached print through the Qing Xuankong line — Jiang Pingjie's supplement and Jiang Yao's collation. The received form and the attributed origin are therefore centuries (at least) apart, and both facts belong on the page.
Where it sits in the tradition
