F.18:9 - Conformance Checks

Use these checks before a durable name is reused in a pattern. If an F.17 row is current, run its own row checks after the section 4.4 gate; these F.18 checks neither create that row nor establish a publication occurrence for it.

CheckPassing condition
Governed valueThe named value is recoverable and belongs to a subject pattern.
InterpretationThe effective U.ReferenceScheme is carried by value and the local sense is named; model-use structure, claim scope, project work, and other locality relations remain separate.
KindThe kind is not inferred from spelling, source, or practice. A system-role kind is already recoverable through its candidate domain, operative membership condition, intended member/non-member boundary, and continuity rule.
Candidate setUnless a cited external standard fixes the label under §4.1, the smallest set covers at least two live head families. Every plausible neighbouring-object reading is examined; any forced untested exception is explicit in CandidateCoverage and RefreshCondition.
System-role boundarySystem-role kind, classification, assignment, holder, capability, Method, Work, evidence, status, participant meaning, declaration place, and representation position are not collapsed.
Relation-object boundaryPredicate-definition episteme, admitted relation kind, obtaining occurrence, representation element, and designator are named only after their separate settlements; relation slot, interface, port, and signature names cite the applicable direct patterns.
Public rowA durable local card is enough unless public, Core-facing, durable-across-context, or cross-context reuse is current. The section 4.4 gate passes before any F.17 row is cited; the row is neither the value nor the publication occurrence.
Bridge and bounded useApply the F.9 predicate only to exact local senses whose <ReferenceScheme, LocalSenseClaim> projections differ. Same projection plus another expression is designation; same scheme plus another claim can open the F.9 question; scheme difference opens only the question; no current correspondence use creates no Bridge or use claim. A separate C.2.1 claim says whether an obtaining Bridge suits the named naming use, and A.10 or B.3 supplies the reliance rule. None authorizes or proves that reuse occurred.
Local-plain non-useA one-off claim about whether an exact Bridge suits a named use stays in ordinary wording. No NameCard, public claim kind, or durable CamelCase name is created unless an independent later reuse need reopens F.18.
Lineage and reopenRename, alias, split, merge, and retirement history is recorded under F.13, and the card names the smallest value, scheme, sense, subject pattern, use, or reader-error change that reopens this settlement.
Reader useA practitioner can tell what to say, what not to infer, and where to go if the name is not enough.
Work-name boundaryAn action nominal remains a morphology cue: a hidden claim-bearing function-like use goes through A.6.F, while an already recovered Method, MethodDescription, required-transformation or required-effect claim, actual U.Transformation, TransformationFlowStructure locus, functional-view record, plan content, or other value is named only under its direct pattern. A WBS or Work Package label remains plan- or assignment-episteme content. A performed-Work name is accepted only for one occurrence whose exact actual performers have A.13 cores and which A.15.1 independently grounds. Add assignment and F.6 refs only when the naming record or receiving use expressly represents precise assignment-bound attribution; missing or failed F.6 leaves the Work name intact. Neighbouring production claims, measurement results, evaluation results, decisions, delivery occurrences, and acceptance verdicts stay under their direct patterns.

Regression checks:

  • When either the effective reference-scheme edition or the LocalSenseClaim changes, compare the resulting semantic-context projections. Re-check any obtaining Bridge, the separate claim about the named use between different projections, and that claim’s current reliance; same-projection expression changes stay with designation, and no current correspondence use creates no Bridge or use claim.
  • When a system-role-kind description changes in a way that may alter the C.3 candidate domain, membership distinction, member/non-member boundary, continuity, or the naming settlement’s reader meaning, re-check the local kind name and any assignment name that depends on it. A provenance-only edit does not split the kind.
  • When a method, capability, work, evidence, or status pattern changes, re-check any name that borrowed morphology from that area.
  • When repeated reader errors occur, reopen candidate comparison instead of adding aliases indefinitely.
