| CC‑A0‑1 | If a pattern/UTS row describes a generator, selector, typed portfolio publication, or set-return publication surface, it MUST surface N, U, C, Diversity_P, ReferencePlane, and E/E‑LOG policy‑id; units, scale, and polarity MUST be declared. | Makes generative claims comparable and auditable (UTS as publication surface). |
| CC‑A0‑2 | When QD/OEE is in scope, pin editions: DescriptorMapRef.edition, DistanceDefRef.edition (and, where applicable, CharacteristicSpaceRef.edition, TransferRulesRef.edition); log PathSliceId and policy‑ids. | Enables admissible parity and refresh; edition-aware telemetry. |
| CC‑A0‑3 | No mixed‑scale roll‑ups; ordinal data SHALL NOT be averaged; any roll‑up MUST live under a declared CG‑frame. | Prevents illegal scoring; keeps comparisons lawful. |
| CC‑A0‑4 | Where the G‑kit requires parity, publish an Illumination Map (coverage per niche); single‑number leaderboards are non‑conformant on the Core surface when a ParityReport is required. | Declared-set-first / typed portfolio-publication posture; avoids single‑winner bias. |
| CC‑A0‑5 | Keep illumination/coverage as report‑only telemetry; dominance policy defaults to ParetoOnly; any change is CAL‑authorised and cited by policy‑id. | Separates fit from exploration; preserves auditability. |
| CC‑A0‑6 | Apply E.7/E.8: include a U.System and a U.Episteme illustration when claiming generative behaviour; obey E.10 register hygiene; use the exact subsection title “Archetypal Grounding.” | Locks didactic primacy; prevents jargon drift. |
| CC-A0-7 | ReferencePlane declared for every N/U/C/Diversity_P head and CL^plane penalties route to R only; Φ_plane policy-id published when planes differ. | Prevents plane/stance category errors; aligns with Bridge/GateCrossing visibility guards (Bridge+UTS+CL/Φ_plane). |
| CC‑A0‑8 | Diversity_P ≠ Illumination. Diversity_P may enter dominance; Illumination remains report‑only telemetry unless explicitly promoted by CAL policy‑id. | Matches QD triad semantics and parity defaults. |
| CC‑A0‑9 | For any generator/selector scale-behaviour claim, declare S (Scale Variables), its ScaleWindow, and an E/E-LOG scale policy-id. Mark S = N/A only when no scale-behaviour claim is made. | Keeps a negative scale result within its declared comparison basis. |
| CC‑A0‑10 | For scale-behaviour claims, execute a scale-probe (≥ 2 points along S within the declared ScaleWindow) and report a Scale Elasticity class (rising/knee/flat/declining) in the UTS row, under C.18.1. | Reports adverse response as declining rather than hiding it as flat or N/A. |
| CC‑A0‑11 | Apply Iso‑Scale Parity in parity runs when S is declared; where infeasible, state the loss notes and treat results as non‑parity with an explicit penalty in R. | Keeps comparisons fair and auditable under scale constraints. |
| CC‑A0‑12 | Record a BLP-waiver only when overriding an actual declared generality preference that would otherwise decide the use. Apply C.19.1’s governed grounds: admissibility override, parity-supported scale-probe overturn, or non-blocking complementary bias. Bounded specialization alone requires no waiver. | Makes an actual policy override transparent without imposing one on ordinary bounded tactics. |
