E.17:6 - Rules and Invariants (normative)

Publication-composition local test bundle. A face that claims compositional publication passes five local tests:

  1. identity: Emit_s(id_X) is the identity face morphism for FaceObj_s(X);
  2. composition witness: the face for g o f matches the composition of the faces for f and g, or is marked non-compositional or explanatory-only;
  3. no-new-claim diff: comparison with the selected source episteme shows only formatting, indexing, pinning, or conservative construction;
  4. monotone promotion: a richer face adds fields, pins, or typing without retracting or strengthening the source claim;
  5. scope non-widening: U.PublicationScope stays within the exact claim or work scope used by the selected description.

For composable arrows X -f-> Y -g-> Z and exact s,t in F_face:

  1. Functoriality and typing per face.
    • Emit_s(id_X) = id_{FaceObj_s(X)}.
    • Emit_s(g o f) = Emit_s(g) o Emit_s(f) only when the face carries the local witness.
    • If f : X -> Y, then Emit_s(f) : FaceObj_s(X) -> FaceObj_s(Y) is total in the selected formal substrate. An ill-typed composite blocks that formal claim; it is not repaired by weakening conformance.
  2. Face-promotion coherence.
    • If s <= t, the t-face is a more explicit publication form for the same selected source claims.
    • PromoteFace[s->t]_X : FaceObj_s(X) -> FaceObj_t(X) is natural in X.
    • Identity and composition of PromoteFace follow the selected formal substrate. AssuranceLane is outside the default formality chain.
  3. Source episteme and construction.
    • Every Emit_s use names the exact source episteme edition. It resolves an exact publicationViewpointRef only when the selected episteme is claimed as a U.View or the formal operation’s definition actually depends on that viewpoint.
    • When another episteme is actually constructed from the source, use A.6.3 to identify that source-to-receiving construction relation. The face constructor is not a species of U.EpistemicViewing, and A.6.3 does not establish U.View membership.
    • Changed claim content, EntityOfConcern, or effective reference scheme identifies another episteme under C.2.1. Changed form, carrier, or publication occurrence does not by itself.
  4. Pin discipline. Numeric or comparable claims used from a face retain the unit, scale, reference-plane, and edition pins required by the applicable characteristic and measurement patterns.
  5. Publication is not work. Build, rendering, upload, or delivery is U.Work only when each exact actual performer has its A.13 core and A.15.1 independently admits the dated occurrence. F.6 enters only when the publication account also consumes precise assignment-bound attribution through the same obtaining A.13 assignment; missing or failed F.6 leaves the Work intact.
  6. Publication and carrier separation. E.24.PUB identifies the selected episteme edition, publication occurrence, form, and presentation carrier separately. A.10 supplies the evidence/provenance source-to-use path, G.6 supplies addressable path citation, slicing, and local refresh, and B.3 supplies any assurance claim.
  7. Cross-context and reference-plane use. For a semantic crossing, recover the F.17 endpoint senses, F.9 Bridge, and separate bounded-use claim. For a plane-dependent value, retain the characteristic, selected ReferencePlane, and applicable transfer or comparison rule. Add A.10 or B.3 only when reliance is current; an optional F.9 CL summarizes evidence strength and never grants use. Visual juxtaposition and scheme difference alone establish none of these claims.
  8. PublicationScope discipline. For a face use v selecting episteme E, PublicationScope(v) does not exceed the claim scope on which that publication relies. A capability description may also cite a work scope, but the publication scope does not grant work admissibility. PromoteFace does not widen either scope.

The equations are conceptual-form constraints on the optional morphism-publication profile. They do not turn face symbols, formulas, or diagrams into world-side relations, viewpoints, views, publication occurrences, or work.
