B.5.2:4.5 - Abductive Unfolding Structure Block

When the question concerns possible continuations of abductive work and their conditions, use A.22.CGUS’s ordinary branch. Open its formal branch only when the receiving use needs the structure’s identity or replay; reuse of a hypothesis note alone does not require that branch.

AbductiveUnfoldingStructureBlock:
  unfoldingStructureRef: one independently identified A.22.CGUS structure
  abductivePromptRef:
  cueSetWithDownstreamPatternAlternativesRef:
  rivalHypothesisSetRef:
  hypothesisGenerationLoci[]:
  plausibilityConstraintRefs[]:
  evidenceReturnLoci[]:
  languageStateMoveRefs[]:
  poolPolicyOrSelectionRef?:
  blockedOverread?: not inspiration event, not linear ideation workflow, not evidence by itself

Use unfoldingStructureRef to designate the selected structure. Recover its constituents, obtaining relation occurrences, applied constraints and selection-use frame under A.22; qualify its loci and potential continuations under A.22.CGUS. Keep the describing record separate from that identity. Use cueSetWithDownstreamPatternAlternativesRef when the prompt still carries several possible patterns for the next question. Use rivalHypothesisSetRef before selecting a prime hypothesis. Use evidenceReturnLoci[] to say where later evidence, deduction, probe design, or assurance work can return; do not use those loci as evidence. Abductive plausibility comparison remains here. Use C.18 for archive or front claims, C.19 for live-pool policy, G.5 for a selector’s selected-set declaration, or the direct comparison method when that distinct result is needed.

AbductiveSearchUnfoldingStructure is a local designation for an A.22.CGUS structure selected for an abductive-search question; it supplies no additional identity rule. It is not a root U-kind, ideation workflow, evidence, or selection decision. Use B.5.2 to state the abductive prompt, cue set with alternative next patterns, rival hypotheses, plausibility constraints, and evidence-return loci. Use the patterns that define or test evidence, deduction, probe design, assurance, selected-set result declaration, pool policy, and comparison when those claims become current.
