Candidate Validation Workflow#
This is a V0.29 recipe page over existing public APIs; it adds no runtime surface.
Use this path when you already have a generator, invariant map, or formula-backed candidate and want configured validation evidence.
candidate object
-> schema and finite evaluation checks
-> optional finite-transform verification
-> generator confidence report
Recipe#
Normalize the candidate into a supported public form:
GeneratorFamily,InvariantMapSpec, orFormulaGeneratorFamily.Validate against a specific
FieldBatchand residual evaluator.Treat closure diagnostics, residual checks, and finite-transform verification as separate evidence surfaces.
Use
summarize_generator_confidence(...)to combine evidence categorically.Keep failed, fallback-backed, partial, and unconfigured evidence visible in the report.

Defensible Claim#
validated means all configured empirical checks passed for the supplied data, residual evaluator, candidate, epsilons, thresholds, and optional reference. It is not a mathematical proof of symmetry and does not imply validity outside the configured workflow.
Next Step#
Continue to candidate_to_split_provenance.md for a complete recipe that combines candidate validation, confidence interpretation, orbit provenance, and split-leakage diagnostics.
