A.6.5:7 - Conformance Checklist

  1. The direct relation kind and the definition of its predicate, applicability, participant meanings, and identity rule are named before SlotSpecs are declared.
  2. Every participant meaning needed by reusable typed use has one complete <SlotKind, ValueKind, refMode> SlotSpec in the RelationSignature.
  3. Each SlotKind is local to the one exact RelationSignature that contains its SlotSpec.
  4. World-side relation prose names participant meanings and actual participants; declaration prose uses SlotSpec for the complete declaration and ...Slot only for its declaration-local SlotKind; receiving-episteme prose names participant designations and uses ...Ref only for admitted RefKinds or reference values of those kinds. Actual participant ValueKind names carry neither suffix. For every semantic or representation field that receives relation semantics, verify the applicable §4.2 declaration or representation correspondence route and keep the field, SlotSpec, designation, and actual participant distinct. Position and place are not alternate FPF names for a declaration slot.
  5. Each ValueKind is exact enough for the direct predicate and does not combine participant kinds for which the predicate has different semantics.
  6. An assertion or description episteme that designates a participant by reference names the exact RefKind and resolves it to the declared ValueKind.
  7. The actual relation participant, its reference, reference resolution, SlotSpec declaration, participant designation in the assertion, and relation occurrence remain distinct.
  8. A C.3 kind is introduced only for a current typed-quantification, membership, substitution, or subkind use.
  9. A verb-shaped predicate is not used as evidence of work, method, transformation, agency, or holonhood.
  10. Only an admitted U.System is admitted for HolderSystemSlot. Each species under U.SystemRoleAssignment declares its AssignedSystemRoleKindSlot domain and any additional participant meaning whose value changes the predicate or occurrence identity.
  11. U.Work and U.Method rely on their own constructive holon tests, while U.Transformation relies on A.3.4’s actual-bounded-change identity; A.6.5 admits none of them by grammar.
  12. The direct-relation definition supplies the obtaining predicate and occurrence-identity rule; current-case facts or constituting history supply the factual basis; a claim-bearing episteme records polarity; and evidence or reliance remains a separate judgement.
  13. A declaration, assertion, description, representation, or publication episteme does not create the world-side relation by form.
  14. Ordinary use can stop before signatures, explicit occurrence identity, or C.3 kind derivation when the receiving use depends on none of them; typed reuse, occurrence identity, and local-kind quantification are independent thresholds, and none is a prerequisite for another.
  15. Relation-declaration slot discipline remains a rule set; its pattern name does not admit another U-kind.
  16. A relation fact, an episteme claim, and a locally derived kind are handled by the patterns that define those respective objects.
  17. A SlotSpec declares one direct-relation participant meaning inside one exact RelationSignature. Method-description, operation, plan, work, evaluation, representation, card, schema, and record fields retain the kinds and declaration rules supplied by their defining patterns; a field that receives relation semantics uses the applicable §4.2 route.
  18. An A.15.3 planned-filling row may cite an exact SlotSpec, but the planned designation remains plan content and establishes neither an actual participant nor relation obtaining.
  19. Interface, port, endpoint, API, and signature language remains available for recognition. The text states what connects, crosses, or is transferred between which entities and recovers the direct-relation definition before declaring SlotSpecs; an unresolved case requires A.6.RSIR or an exact missing-relation result.
  20. When source wording calls an entity a result, first determine whether the same entity continued or a new entity began. A separately worded delivery, acceptance, or evaluation claim is opened one at a time with its concrete participants; no pattern catalogue or generic result kind substitutes for that decision.
