C.25:19 - Gate, Proxy, and Reporting Discipline

C.25:19.1 - Report-only summary proxy

A summary proxy remains a separate downstream claim. It identifies the source quality-claim episteme or exact ClaimAddress, states what it summarizes and omits, and never replaces that source in a norm, gate, or endpoint classification.

C.25:19.2 - Gate binding rule

When a gate uses a quality family, its decision claim cites the exact quality-claim episteme or addressed claims and names only the bundle slots on which the decision relies: for example declared scope, specific measures, a qualification window, or required mechanisms or statuses. The gate does not bind to a family label or raw record, and C.25 does not define the gate decision.

C.25:19.3 - Roll-up caution

A roll-up is another claim-bearing episteme. It cites the exact source epistemes or ClaimAddresses being combined, states the admissible aggregation or summary rule, and remains distinct from them. If the roll-up begins to drive local engineering action directly, reopen the source claims and the exact Q-Bundle slots on which that action relies instead of treating the summary score as the bearer or bundle.
