The Ontology
The ontology is a queryable canon of software architecture. It holds every principle with its relations and its repair, every term with its definition, every algorithm with its contract, the reasoning that derives them, the layers they live in and how every tension between them is resolved, and every reference from one record to another is a link.

The derivation loop
Every algorithm grammar is an instance of the derivation loop, which has ten stages, each on one reasoning axis, joined by transitions that sequence, gate or refute back. Each stage is listed with the contracts that run at it and the records it grounds, and the traversal is taught in the loop on the methodology page.
How it is checked
Checked by
the reasoning-native check, which requires every process grammar's kernel to map the loop's stages and every staged record to name a real stage and that stage's axis
Population
Every process grammar, its kernel and its staged records
Freshness
A verdict stands until the loop, a grammar or a staged record changes
Refusal
The gate fails on an unknown stage, a stage whose axis does not match, or a kernel that omits the verify stage
Observation
None, because the loop is a procedure the grammars instantiate, and nothing observes it while a run executes
Evidence
Watched to fire and to accept: a suite plants an unknown stage, a mismatched axis and a kernel that omits the verify stage, and passes a fully typed staged record
Authoritative side
The loop's stage list, which every kernel and staged record cites

The test surfaces
The test surfaces are what a system can be wrong about. Each is a dimension seen through a lens, listed with the invariant that must hold, the techniques that observe it, the predicate and what grounds it, the evidence it requires and the verdicts it can return. The architecture page reads the same grid in what can drift, seen through how it drifts.

Refusal A named rule fails the lint stage on the signature; the invariant each shape breaks is gated in every structured document that grounds it
Observation The runtime observations that locate a failure, which are then filed under a shape
Evidence Watched to fire and to accept: a suite plants a shape that names no invariant and no canon, and the bundled shapes validate clean
Authoritative side The invariant the shape breaks, which the shape cites, while each named rule conforms to the shape's signature
Depends on Not answered
Shape it refuses Not answered
Two derivations
Details
Shape One question answered by two derivations that can drift apart.
Fix Collapse them to one derivation, computed by the producer of the answer.
Breaks epi-one-derivation
Seen in Duplicated Authority
Refused by rules duplicate-code
How it is checked
Checked by the quality rules each shape names, which refuse its syntactic signature where one exists, the classification step of the verification substrate, which files every silent failure under a shape before a fix is chosen
Population Every source file the named rules lint, and every failure a check or a review classifies
Freshness A verdict stands until the linted source, a named rule or the shape's instances change

Weak link kept
Details
Shape A link below the certainty floor kept in a chain with a flag on it.
Fix Remove the link from the chain.
Breaks epi-weakest-link
Refused by rules None, because the certainty of a link is a property of the chain, which no source rule sees

Absence certified by observation
Details
Shape No observed failure read as proof that no failure exists.
Fix Use the observation to locate failures, and leave the verdict on absence to a check.
Breaks epi-observation-locates
Refused by rules None, because the shape lies in how a report is read, not in source
How it is checked
Checked by the quality rules each shape names, which refuse its syntactic signature where one exists, the classification step of the verification substrate, which files every silent failure under a shape before a fix is chosen

Stop on confidence
Details
Shape A run that stops because the model is confident, before completion, saturation and verification hold.
Fix Stop only when the three conditions hold, or when the run is blocked on something outside it.
Breaks epi-terminate-on-three
Refused by rules None, because the shape lies in how a run decides to stop, not in source
How it is checked
Checked by the quality rules each shape names, which refuse its syntactic signature where one exists, the classification step of the verification substrate, which files every silent failure under a shape before a fix is chosen

Unfailable floor
Details
Shape A threshold set below what its population already meets, so the check it guards cannot fail until most of the population is gone.
Fix Set the floor from the population as it stands, and plant a case below it to watch the check fail.
Breaks epi-verdict-is-representation
Refused by rules None, because whether a floor can be reached is a property of the population, which no source rule sees
How it is checked
Checked by the quality rules each shape names, which refuse its syntactic signature where one exists, the classification step of the verification substrate, which files every silent failure under a shape before a fix is chosen

Verdictless verifier
Details
Shape A tool named as a verifier that reports no pass, no fail and no exit code, so what it examines has no check at all.
Fix Give the tool a verdict and an exit code, or rename it to the probe it is.
Breaks epi-reachable-check
Refused by rules None, because whether a tool issues a verdict is a property of its output contract, which no source rule sees
How it is checked
Checked by the quality rules each shape names, which refuse its syntactic signature where one exists, the classification step of the verification substrate, which files every silent failure under a shape before a fix is chosen

Unindexed construct kind
Details
Shape A kind of construct the index a family of checks reads never records, so every check over that index misses every construct of the kind.
Fix Record the kind in the index, and confirm that a planted construct of the kind is reported.
Breaks epi-preserved-distinction
Refused by rules None, because an index's coverage of construct kinds is a property of its builder, which no source rule sees
How it is checked
Checked by the quality rules each shape names, which refuse its syntactic signature where one exists, the classification step of the verification substrate, which files every silent failure under a shape before a fix is chosen
