| --- | --- | --- | ---: | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |

| CLM-001 | Framing | A package functions as constructive evidence only when operational relations remain replayable under revision; geometry-only description is insufficient for revisable inference. | 12 | n/a | n/a | Author construct (appendix method claim). | Establishes evidentiary threshold as replayability, not output plausibility. | mapped |

| CLM-002 | Framing | Executability remains conditional on declared competence and ambiguity tolerance, and tacit completion must be carried as named uncertainty rather than silent fill. | 26 | n/a | n/a | Author construct (appendix method claim). | Competence limits and uncertainty classes bound replay claims. | mapped |

| CLM-003 | Framing (case design) | The Greek case stress-tests commensurability governance by treating symmetria as proportional relation across parts, not mirror resemblance. | 24 | `inline footnote` | B | Circling Round Vitruvius, Linear Perspective, and the Design of Roman Wall Painting, accessed on November 9, 2025, https://www.mdpi.com/2076-0752/8/3/118 | Case design rationale for ratio-governed comparability under revision. | mapped |

| CLM-004 | Framing (case design) | The Japanese case stress-tests cascade publication by requiring anchor-to-dependent proportional propagation, branch visibility, and declared discretion bands. | 24 | `inline footnote` | B/A | Proportions of Wood Members in Japanese Traditional Architecture - A Comparison of the Kiwari-Sho and Measurements of Building Remains, accessed on November 9, 2025, https://www.mdpi.com/2071-1050/15/7/5800 ; Design methods of rotating sutra-case cabinets: a comparative study, accessed on November 9, 2025, https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/11.1080/13467581.2019.1626734 | Case design rationale for recursive proportional transmission and governance disclosure. | mapped |

| CLM-005 | Framing (case design) | The Vietnamese case stress-tests bay modularity and instrument-mediated proportional control by separating strict commitments from discretionary correction bands. | 24 | `inline footnote` | B | An Integrated BIM-Based Application for Automating the Conceptual Design for Vietnamese Vernacular Architecture - MDPI, accessed on November 9, 2025, https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3417/15/12/6776 | Case design rationale for modular anchor integrity under revision. | mapped |

| CLM-006 | Framing | The A1-A7 readout is operationalised as observable indicators, pass/fail conditions, and required evidence types for release decisions. | 28 | n/a | n/a | Author construct (appendix method claim). | Aligns framing section with STEP and CHECKPOINT governance outputs. | mapped |

| CLM-007 | Operating condition | The representation ladder distinguishes instance description, canonical identification, and generative definition, and binds evidentiary status to published surfaces. | 16 | n/a | n/a | Author construct (appendix method claim). | Prevents over-claiming from descriptive material. | mapped |

| CLM-008 | Operating condition | Replayable publication requires explicit A1-A7 fields (`representation_level`, role identities, commensurability declarations, dependency/branch/override surfaces, translation, correction, and revision trace fields). | 20 | n/a | n/a | Author construct (appendix method claim). | Defines minimum inspectable package for revisable reuse. | mapped |

| CLM-009 | Greek | Symmetria is treated as commensurability under a chosen standard (declared modulus and unit policy), supporting proportion as a dependency chain rather than mirror symmetry. | 12 | `inline footnote` | B | Circling Round Vitruvius, Linear Perspective, and the Design of Roman Wall Painting, accessed on November 9, 2025, https://www.mdpi.com/2076-0752/8/3/118 | Source support for commensurability framing used in the Greek pressure test. | mapped |

| CLM-010 | Greek | Doric constraint conflicts require iterative adjustment; replay requires disclosing derivations and conflict-resolution surfaces (branch state and override policy) rather than only end-state geometry. | 14 | `inline footnote` | A | The Principal Design Methods for Greek Doric Temples and their Modification for the Parthenon, accessed on November 9, 2025, https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/architectural-history/article/principal-design-methods-for-greek-doric-temples-and-their-modification-for-the-parthenon/76E28C87D6B1794DD2CDF7B90D2A405A | Source support for constraint conflict pressure on single ratio chains. | mapped |

| CLM-011 | Japan | Kiwari manuals encode proportional cascades; replayability requires publishing dependencies, branch conditions, and discretion bands. | 12 | `inline footnote` | A | Design methods of rotating sutra-case cabinets: a comparative study, accessed on November 9, 2025, https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/11.1080/13467581.2019.1626734 | Source support for cascade logic as transmissible constraint knowledge. | mapped |

| CLM-012 | Vietnam | Bay-level composition defines modularity through repeated units that aggregate into larger plans and frames. | 14 | `inline footnote` | B | An Integrated BIM-Based Application for Automating the Conceptual Design for Vietnamese Vernacular Architecture - MDPI, accessed on November 9, 2025, https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3417/15/12/6776 | Source support for bay-level modular composition as a generator. | mapped |

| CLM-013 | Vietnam | Instrument-mediated constraints can operate as an inscribed rule store separating strict commitments from discretionary bands, enabling auditable revision. | 16 | `inline footnote` | A | The Generative Core of Vietnamese Vernacular Architecture, accessed on February 14, 2026, https://unesdoc.unesco.org/ark:/48223/pf0000193014 | Source support for instrument-mediated constraint executability. | mapped |

| CLM-014 | Invariants | Cross-case invariants specify minimum publishable conditions aligned to A1-A7 (scope/rung, roles, commensurability standard, generator structure, translation contract, correction layer, transform trace and uncertainty register). | 12 | n/a | n/a | Author synthesis across the three cases and the ladder/A1-A7 governance. | Invariants are framed as governance, not as uniform historical practice. | mapped |

| CLM-015 | Contemporary bridge | Contemporary text-based representations require directionality and completeness reporting; otherwise relation visibility is lost at the point of external verification. | 16 | n/a | n/a | Author synthesis; empirical examples are routed to the appendix-data evidence profile. | Bridge remains conceptual in this appendix. | mapped |

| CLM-016 | TEXT_RECON_STEP | TEXT_RECON_STEP is a minimal A1-A7 reporting sequence that discloses representation, commensurability, generator structure, translation contract, correction layer, and revision governance before treating geometry as a stable output. | 12 | n/a | n/a | Author construct (appendix method claim). | Steps specify input, transformation, and published fields. | mapped |

| CLM-017 | TEXT_RECON_STEP | Stop condition: if required fields are missing, the correct release label is draft rather than replayable reconstruction. | 31 | n/a | n/a | Author construct (appendix method claim). | Governance prevents premature release of non-replayable packages. | mapped |

| CLM-018 | TEXT_RECON_CHECKPOINT | TEXT_RECON_CHECKPOINT is a minimal credibility test aligned to A1-A7, stated as pass/fail checks. | 14 | n/a | n/a | Author construct (appendix method claim). | Checkpoint localises disagreement under revision. | mapped |

| CLM-019 | TEXT_RECON_CHECKPOINT | A schematic replay package demonstrates how revision and disagreement localise to parameters, `branch_state`, `override_policy`, correction records, and uncertainty fields rather than competing end-state drawings. | 40 | n/a | n/a | Author construct (appendix method claim). | Demonstration is explicitly non-historical. | mapped |

| CLM-020 | Boundaries | Failure packages include geometry-only releases and procedure-only recipes that omit scope/rung, mapping, commensurability standard, correction policy, or transform trace. | 20 | n/a | n/a | Author synthesis from boundary conditions in the appendix. | Exemplars state symptoms and review consequences. | mapped |

| CLM-021 | Closing | The appendix contributes a representation ladder and A1-A7 governance (readout + STEP/CHECKPOINT) that keep revision disagreements local and checkable. | 14 | n/a | n/a | Author synthesis; supported by the cases and internal consistency checks. | Closing remains bounded and non-quantitative. | mapped |
