Validation Rules

Canonical validity rules for protocol participation

This reference defines the active validation posture used to determine whether participation is complete, contextual, and structurally conformant.

Validation posture

A participation act must be complete, contextual, and conformant

Validation determines whether a participation act is structurally admissible under the active rule model. It does not determine whether the claim itself is true.

Completeness
Checks whether required references and structural fields are present.
References
Checks whether participants, context, and protocol-relevant material are recognizable.
Lifecycle fit
Checks whether the participation act fits the active lifecycle context and attempted move.
Conformance
Checks whether the interaction follows the active protocol rules rather than a local convention.

Boundary note

Validation is structural and does not decide factual correctness

This surface governs structural admissibility. It does not decide whether a disputed claim is true or whether a contested result should prevail.

What this surface governs
Structural validity, completeness, context fit, and protocol conformance.
What remains outside this surface
Truth assessment, result merit, and governed decision resolution.
