C.31:7 - Conformance Checklist

IDCheck
CC-C31-1Ordinary use starts with ModularityVectorLite, three characteristics under evaluation at most, observed problem, repair direction, and stop condition.
CC-C31-2Each characteristic head under evaluation is classified as DirectCharacteristic, CompositeCharacteristicDescription, LensBackedCharacteristic, TemporalOrScaleCharacteristic, CausalUseSensitiveCharacteristic, or ReportOnlyProxy.
CC-C31-3A decision-facing or publication-facing head has MeasurementHeadMapping, C.16-compatible fields, and a required evidence relation, evidence-provenance relation, source relation, or explicit evidence-claim-absent reason before it is relied on. Exact rule-identity dependence requires relationFunctionClaimRef; an ordinary locator does not. Non-pattern authority uses authoritySourceRef under E.10.
CC-C31-4Each characteristic row states at least one repair action or exact subject assertion named by value with its predicate and non-semantic pattern locator.
CC-C31-5Report-only proxies state forbidden overread and do not establish beyond-local-repair use.
CC-C31-6Proxy-risk and audit-question fields are present for decision-facing cards.
CC-C31-7Complexity, residual, and growth heads remain claim-scoped cues; apply C.29, C.31.ASAP when an architecture scale-preference claim is being made, C.27, C.28, C.16, C.25, C.30.ILC, C.31.RSA, G.5, or C.11 when the corresponding claim kind is being made.
CC-C31-8No C.31 text treats modularity as a single quality proof, assurance proof, gate result, causal proof, or architecture decision.
CC-C31-9Any score discloses scoring method, codomain, polarity, characteristic basis, comparability basis, and use boundary through the subject pattern.
CC-C31-10SoTA seeds for DSM, modularity-index, empirical modularity, platform, evidence-reuse, Conway and mirroring, Amdahl, queueing, coordination-overhead, information-hiding, abstraction-leakage, or Goodhart and Campbell proxy-risk sources are converted into pattern-local G.2 rows before C.31 uses them for practitioner guidance being relied on.
CC-C31-11Source labels such as block, layer, expert, cache, router, or gate use C.30.STRAT before they become C.31 characteristic subjects, scale cues, repair actions, or proxy-risk rows.
CC-C31-12A vector, card, or report-only proxy states a lowering or reopen condition when proxy audit worsens, measurement or comparability basis changes, evidence relation, evidence-provenance relation, or source relation becomes stale, characteristic head changes, or a related subject pattern changes.
