Show the smallest approved artifact, source, status, and boundary before using stronger product language.

Pattern

Show the smallest approved artifact, source, status, and boundary before using stronger product language.

Where it appears

All priority GitHub proof records, the Work page direction, and the public proof field note.

Why it matters

It makes trust cumulative and inspectable instead of dependent on positioning.

Boundary

This does not convert private material, planned work, or prototype evidence into public maturity.
