Change Semantics
A difference is evidence. Materiality is a governed judgment.
The detector may expose exact changes, but it may not silently decide authority, jurisdiction, revocation, restoration or downstream effect.
v0.18.0Repository-local evidenceUnknowns preserved
Answer first
Does every detected difference count as a material constitutional change?
No. Difference detection and materiality review are separate. Materiality is assigned per named dimension by an identified rule or reviewer, and no aggregate score can hide a failed authority or evidence dimension.
Truth boundary: v0.18 reports exact repository-owned bytes, deterministic local checks, schemas and analytical definitions. It does not report a fresh external capture, live shared interoperability, a production partition or restoration, adoption, legal recognition, safety certification or independent certification.
Process
Difference detection comes before materiality
- Establish artifact identity and successor relation.
- Declare the raw-byte or selected-field capture boundary.
- Compare field presence before comparing values.
- Apply transparent field-specific normalization.
- Record the difference set without assigning authority or fault.
- Evaluate named material dimensions under an identified reviewer or rule.
- Propagate material change to known dependent records.
- Preserve unavailable, not reobserved and unknown states.

Typed outcomes
Absence and uncertainty are not false
| State | Use |
|---|---|
| UNCHANGED_VERIFIED | Comparable inputs were evaluated and no difference was found inside the declared boundary. |
| CHANGED_MATERIAL | A comparable difference affects at least one named material dimension. |
| CHANGED_NONMATERIAL | A comparable difference exists but does not affect the named material dimensions under the recorded review rule. |
| FIELDS_ADDED | The target capture contains fields absent from the baseline capture. |
| FIELDS_REMOVED | The target capture omits fields retained in the baseline capture. |
| BASELINE_INCOMPARABLE | Identity, capture scope, normalization, or version semantics do not support direct comparison. |
| SOURCE_UNAVAILABLE | The target could not be captured under the approved method. |
| NOT_REOBSERVED | No new capture was performed or authorized in this release. |
| UNKNOWN | Available evidence does not support a more specific comparison state. |

Material change has dependents
A material change is incomplete as a governance event until affected claims, decisions, receipts, caches, simulations, human pages and machine endpoints are identified and marked. Inspect the invalidation register →

Repository implementation and local execution remain local evidence classes. They do not establish external adoption, production behavior, legal recognition or independent certification.
CLM074 · CONCRESCA IMPLEMENTATION STATE
External v0.17 artifact baselines were not reobserved in v0.18 and therefore are not labeled unchanged.
Evidence owner: exact Concresca repository registries and, only where stated, the deterministic local run record.
Repository-local design or execution evidence only; it does not establish external adoption, live shared interoperability, production restoration, legal recognition, or independent certification.CLM075 · CONCRESCA IMPLEMENTATION STATE
v0.18 separates detected difference from dimension-specific materiality and prohibits a compensatory materiality score.
Evidence owner: exact Concresca repository registries and, only where stated, the deterministic local run record.
Repository-local design or execution evidence only; it does not establish external adoption, live shared interoperability, production restoration, legal recognition, or independent certification.Judgment-free total cognitive freedom
