conformance

stability harness of soft3 — a release of the stack IS a conformance snapshot. one hemera fingerprint per canonical encoding, one per mechanism output. drift surfaces at commit time.

canonical(value)        →  hemera fingerprint  →  conformance/encoding.snap
nox(scenario, input)    →  hemera fingerprint  →  conformance/mechanism.snap
union(all snapshots)    →  hemera root         →  protocol stability root

each soft3 repo carries its own conformance/ directory of .snap files. CI compares; drift fails. promotion through five tiers (alpha → epsilon) determines how hard a snapshot is to move.

position in the stack

conformance sits beneath every other soft3 component except hemera itself. bbg, lens, zheng, radio, foculus, cybergraph, nox, wysm, trident, mudra, mir each register their stable surface area as Conformant types and named mechanism scenarios.

status

scaffold. trait surface drafted. snapshot harness lands after hemera reaches stable output. cargo conformance subcommand follows.

see soft3 for the surrounding stack and hemera for the underlying fingerprint primitive.
