A.19.SOURCE-SET-SPACE-SUBSTRATE:7 - Conformance Checklist

Preface node heading:a-19-source-set-space-substrate-7-conformance-checklist:24740

What this page is

This is generated FPF reference text from the specification preface or supporting sections. It helps interpret FPF; it is not FPF Reference product documentation.

Methodology

Use it to understand how the specification wants to be read, then return to a route, pattern, or work packet for active work. Cite generated IDs only when the wording changes the task decision.

Content

Treat a line as conforming only if every gate below passes.

IDGate questionFail whenRepair or governing pattern
CC-A19SS-1Is the line really declaring one substrate-bearing relation rather than only CharacteristicSpace, publication metadata, or policy?The line only names a space object, or only publishes, ships, or retains something, with no explicit source, ref, relation, or posture stack.Move to A.19, G.5, G.10, C.19, or C.24 as appropriate.
CC-A19SS-2Is the active source set recoverable enough for the current case?Only a vague family word such as front or archive remains, and several same-family source sets or set results are live with no way to tell which one is meant.Add the concrete declared source set or set result id or cite the neighboring governing pattern that makes the source/set-result unique.
CC-A19SS-3Do SearchSpaceRef and OutcomeSpaceRef both resolve to declared A.19 CharacteristicSpace, and is SpaceRefRelationKind explicit?One or both refs are vague, or the line leaves the same-space versus cross-space question to inference.Restore the two refs and declare sameDeclaredSpaceAs or distinctDeclaredSpaceFrom explicitly.
CC-A19SS-4Is the source-to-outcome relation explicit in direction, mode, and carrier?The line hides the relation in one umbrella phrase such as projection, portfolio, or maps into, with no explicit carrier.Rewrite into the canonical substrate form and state direction, mode, and carrier.
CC-A19SS-5Is the active qualification posture explicit and honest?The line is qualified in effect, but the posture is unstated or all non-transparent cases are blurred into one generic loss story.Declare the governing posture token and any needed note; if that cannot be done honestly, keep the line informative only.
CC-A19SS-6Are conditional and qualifier fields used only when they really do work?Composition, derivation, base-palette, declared map ref, metric, transition, or bridge qualifiers are fabricated everywhere or silently become core.Remove unused qualifiers; keep only the fields the current case actually depends on.
CC-A19SS-7If DescriptorMapRef or DistanceDefRef is active, does the text say they realize or qualify the relation rather than replace the space ref?The representation or metric layer is treated as if it were the declared search-side or outcome-side space.Re-state the docking rule and keep the two space refs visible.
CC-A19SS-8Does the line stay out of publication and policy work?The prose starts deciding shortlist identity, selector outcome, shipping closure, or live-pool/enactment policy.Split the line and move those downstream decisions to their governing patterns.
CC-A19SS-9Can the line be rewritten into one canonical substrate form without invention?The line still depends on hidden assumptions or unresolved candidates.Keep it as a working gloss or repair the missing recovery before reuse.
CC-A19SS-10Could a cold reader take the next lawful declaration step from this line without surrounding memo help?The line still speaks only in umbrella words such as space, projection, or portfolio, and the reader cannot tell what to fill next.Use the substrate worksheet from 4.12 or rewrite into one canonical substrate form before reuse.
CC-A19SS-11When the next question is interpretive-view, publication, or policy, is the next governing pattern explicit?The text keeps talking as if substrate, interpretation, publication, and policy were one layer, so the reader cannot tell where to continue.Split the line and cite A.19.DECLARED-SUBSTRATE-INTERPRETIVE-VIEW, G.5, G.10, C.19, or C.24 as the next governing pattern.
CC-A19SS-12Does the current use claim only the breadth its declared posture and qualifiers actually license?The prose implies universal geometric closure or one universal heavy-qualification story, but the declared posture or qualifiers stay narrower, uncertain, learned/adaptive, or case-bound.Narrow the claim explicitly or add the missing posture/interpretive qualifiers that make the broader claim honest.
