Test the evidence.
Expose the impact.

A citation can resolve and still fail to support a claim. A formula can reproduce and still be historically inapplicable. This workbench keeps those gates separate.

Availability is not support.

A locator, DOI response or excerpt hash is not equivalent to a full immutable source snapshot or a reviewed claim binding.

Generated stubs662

No complete bibliographic identity; cannot function as evidence.

Missing locator97

Bibliographic identity exists, but capture and resolution are blocked.

Model test bench

Correct math.
Bounded meaning.

A reproducible formula can pass while its historical projection remains refused. Computational correctness and semantic applicability are separate gates.

quantitativepass

MPD endpoint lineage

2 inputs resolve to snapshot-bound source-native observations.

Computational lineage only; quantitative review still required.
quantitativepass

CAGR formula reproduction

Recomputed 0.1115004%/yr from 59m (1000) and 103m (1500).

The result applies to MPD source-native China, not automatically to a Sinitic analytical region.
quantitativepass

Input unit compatibility

Both inputs preserve the workbook unit and thousand-person multiplier.

No implicit unit reconciliation was required.
semanticrefused

China → Sinitic entity projection

No reviewed historical-entity crosswalk exists; the source-native CHN series cannot inherit the Sinitic label.

Named regional historian, ontology reviewer and quantitative reviewer.
quantitativerefused

1100–1400 interpolation support

4 inherited intermediate years lack MPD source-native support.

Exact source rows or an explicitly versioned interpolation model.
quantitativecontested

Inherited 0.4% growth claim

Inherited 0.4%/yr conflicts with the reproduced 0.1115%/yr endpoint CAGR.

Preserve as a contradicted legacy assertion; do not normalize the discrepancy away.
periodizationdegraded

French Revolution phase model

Seven institutionally differentiated phases are staged with six claim-relevant sources.

Thermidor boundary and phase labels require a named constitutional historian.
causalrefused

Founding → global hegemony

The direct causal claim compresses founding, rise, wartime choice and postwar institutionalization into one step.

Retain the four-phase boundary model; require dedicated mechanism evidence for any positive causal link.

Pattern test matrix

55 patterns,
zero false finishes.

Every inherited pattern is evaluated against the same ten-control contract. Identity and body preservation are strong; scope, counterexamples and falsifiers are the dominant gaps.

DawsOS workflow contract

Dispatch and receipts,
never historical authority.

DawsOS can schedule resolution checks, enforce budgets, persist evidence packs and route typed decisions. CivStudy continues to own adapters, impact analysis, model meaning and the corpus.
