A.19.CN:8.4.1 - Operations CN‑frame — runtime gating and enactment

Entity graph view:

System ── classifiedAs ──> SystemRoleKind
System + SystemRoleKind + scope/window ── assignment ──> SystemRoleAssignment
Role-state graph ── lists ──> State
Checklist ── tested by evaluation Work ──> StateAssertion
Work ── performedBy ──> assigned System
Work ── enacts ──> Method

The System is classified under one exact local system-role kind and participates in an obtaining assignment for the stated scope and window. A role-state graph lists states such as Ready, Waiting, or Degraded. Evaluation Work applies the state checklist and supports a StateAssertion. Operational Work may proceed only when the relied-on assertion says that an enactable state obtains; the Work, Method, assignment, and result remain different objects.

The RCS snapshot keeps the characteristic, value, unit, scale, window, and result identity visible. A StateAssertion separately identifies any normalization instance and any claim that uses a Bridge. An enactment query can therefore ask whether the latest admissible assertion for this assignment has an enactable state and a passing verdict without treating a role label, CN-frame, or Bridge as the acting System.
