A.10.1:5.4 - Reduced Boundary Cases
| Case | A.10.1 response | Direct continuation |
| The same source episteme appears at a new URL with a new layout. | Compatible claims, applicability and access; repair the reference and finish without multi-use discovery or another result record. | C.2.1, E.17, E.24.PUB, and A.10 when availability affects one bounded use. |
| A bibliography or catalogue mentions the changed source but uses none of its claims. | mentions only; no affected reach. Group equivalent mentions and retain a short reason only when the existing result’s receiver needs it. | No subject revalidation follows from mention alone. |
| Candidate content appears to use the claim, but the premise or applicability cannot be recovered. | unresolved with the exact missing fact. | Return the exact gap now. Obtain the missing basis only when a needed stronger conclusion warrants that contribution. |
| An included repository is inaccessible or its index is stale. | Record a discovery-coverage gap; finish independent resolved branches. | Do not call possible uses in that surface unaffected. |
| The source is unchanged but the represented world changed. | Outside this pattern’s selected branch. | Use the direct configuration, currentness, change, or decision pattern. |
