C.19.1:0.4 - First Output

Run one cheap scale-claim probe before selecting any Scale-Audit. In a short note, name the two bearer candidates and their direct patterns, the task family or receiving use, the proposed scale predicate, objective vector, comparison basis, feasible evidence form, safety boundary, and stakes. Return one of four results:

  • no scale claim yet: use the bounded candidate under its direct pattern; no BLP preference or waiver follows;
  • local analogy or policy: identify the non-computational bearer family, policy edition, and bearer-appropriate evidence still needed;
  • bounded scale comparison: state the smallest parity and uncertainty method adequate for this use;
  • full Scale-Audit selected: state why the claim, stakes, feasible evidence, and receiving use justify the added work.

A BLP-waiver is needed only when an actual declared generality preference would otherwise decide the use.
