E.17.AUD.OOTD:5.5 - Outside observation changes the live concern or carried claim

A release-readiness note is already explicit that it is about one candidate publication or view and the risk state visible from the current evidence. Mid-review, an external vendor bulletin and a new field observation change the reported failure boundary for that same candidate.

The candidate may remain the primary subject. What changed first is the evidence-facing concern and the claim the note can honestly carry; a later approval or execution question may also change the downstream use. Do not report an EntityOfConcern change unless one identified claim-bearing episteme actually has a different exact entity participant under C.2.1. Repair the note in one of three ways:

• stop the current unit at the originally declared evidence boundary and open a new downstream record for the changed question;
• explicitly reopen the same unit with the revised concern, claim or carried move, permitted use, and outside-work boundary;
• or use the downstream decision or work pattern whose instructions now fit once approval, execution, or another downstream decision publication becomes the more honest primary question.

The bulletin and field observation remain sources until a support, evidence, or currentness claim makes A.10 relevant. Use C.11 for a later choice, A.2.9 and A.2.8.PER for an approving act and its permission effect, A.15 for a work claim, and A.21 only for an actual gate decision.
