G.6:4.2 - EvidenceGraph as a representation
An EvidenceGraph is a typed directed graph used for provenance citation and replay. It may project a dependency-closed slice of independently governed objects and relations. It is not a holarchy, work plan, method, transformation flow, result algebra, or proof that its contents obtain.
Minimal graph fields:
EvidenceGraph:
EvidenceGraphId
ReliedOnClaimOrBoundedUseRef

A node record is a projection, not a new universal object kind:
RepresentedNodeRecord:
GraphNodeId
RepresentedObjectRef
ObjectKindAsGoverned
SubjectPatternLocator
ContextEditionOrTimeQualification?
RepresentationRef
The node set may cite exact Work occurrences and their A.13-qualified actual performer Systems. It may also cite local system-role kinds, assignment occurrences whose identities the path uses, obtaining F.6 relations when precise attribution is expressly consumed, direct participation and binding facts, produced entities, subject results, result epistemes, outcomes, sources, carriers, currentness results, reliance dispositions, and later Work. Every cited Work occurrence uses the independently established performer and A.15.1 Work refs described in §4.1; F.6 refs are optional and never discover the performer. Co-listing creates no relation among these objects.
An asserted edge is also a projection:

ActualParticipantRefs
SubjectPatternLocator

RepresentationRef
Before the edge enters a relied-on path, the exact direct relation must already be established under its governor. The participant refs in the edge must match that relation; adjacency, direction, shared identifiers, timestamps, source order, or visual layout cannot supply them. RepresentationRef points outward to the applicable C.29 correspondence when that correspondence is current.
G.6 defines no fallback core edge vocabulary. Legacy or display labels such as verifiedBy, validatedBy, measuredBy, producedByWork, derivedFrom, usesMethodDescription, citesSource, or evidences are navigation prompts only. Replace each with the exact formal, measurement, work, production, publication, representation, provenance, temporal, status-use, premise, reference, argument, or other direct relation before asserting the edge as obtaining.
