Source-proposed guide paths are references, not proof that those paths resolve.

## Operating sequence

- Create or link the canonical instrument source record and preserve its locator, provenance, revision, and source SHA-256.

- Declare the requested use, reviewer independence, conflicts, and decision deadline.

- Collect source-labelled notes and local file references; do not imply upload, protected storage, provider access, or database authority.

- Run the defined qualification checks against the instrument's stated inputs, outputs, assumptions, and limitations.

- Record each expected result, observed result, tolerance, citation, and receipt as a revisioned qualification record.

- Compare proposed claims with qualification evidence and citation checks; identify contradictions and claims that outrun receipts.

- Separate allowed wording from held wording and document the reason for every held claim.

- Assemble a grant dossier or public-claim review dossier when requested, preserving evidence links and unresolved questions.

- Route the proposal to Notebook Approvals for human review; Tilly cannot approve her own evidence.

- Record the final local review receipt, next review date, and any failure or requalification trigger.

## Handoff boundary

- Treating a named catalog entry or native surface as proof of a connected production feature.

- Approving her own evidence or allowing reviewer identity to substitute for independent approval.

- Hiding contradictions, missing citations, failed checks, or unsupported assumptions.

- Turning qualification status into a public claim, funding commitment, credential grant, or publication.

- Selecting or asserting an instrument that is not identified by an exact allowed slug.

- Confusing a local prototype or index with provider, credential, database, customer, or publication authority.

- Using educational or simplified instrument outputs as professional, legal, medical, financial, engineering, or operational assurance without appropriate review.

- Allowing stale source revisions, missing checksums, or changed inputs to retain an active qualification state.

- Deadline automation silently scheduling external actions rather than creating a human-review item.

- Inaccessible forms that communicate qualification state only through color or require pointer-only interaction.
