frontiers / frontier
The dependency graph over this frontier’s findings. Each edge is a typed link: one finding supporting, contradicting, or refining another. The graph is a reviewable view over accepted finding bundles, not a separate authority layer.
Finding graph
109 linked findings, too many to chart legibly. The typed links below are the inspectable view.
Graph index contract
The graph view makes dependency structure visible while keeping accepted finding bundles as the durable objects.
derived view
Supports, contradicts, refines, and depends-on links help users navigate a frontier's review structure.
record state
The graph points back to finding bundles. It should not replace source spans, provenance, or review history.
review path
Inferred or candidate links should route to review before they affect proof, trails, atlases, or constellations.
impact
A changed source or finding can expose affected proof, dependent findings, and review radius.
