Module prepare 

Source-derived baseline obligations, before keys, provider states or content.

Structs

Counter

One original counter value. Malformed values retain a real location and diagnostic and cannot disappear from a later participant census.

Finding

One located mandatory rule or advisory. A SHOULD is not a failed SHALL.

Preparation

Immutable source-derived root profile and COMPLETE nested timestamp census. Findings prevent a positive predicate; processing refusal returns no prefix.

Timestamp

Complete original timestamp occurrence, including unreadable token values. Each carries its actual owning signer, independently of whether it checks.

Enums

ReadError

An original timestamp syntax refusal with independently retained source maps.

Rule

Format-specific findings preserve their cause instead of a blanket invalid.

Severity

Strength of a format requirement, without application severity policy.
