    TIME - Use timing and currentness claims responsibly

    What this page is

    This is generated FPF reference text from the specification preface or supporting sections. It helps interpret FPF; it is not FPF Reference product documentation.

    Methodology

    Use it to understand how the specification wants to be read, then return to a route, pattern, or work packet for active work. Cite generated IDs only when the wording changes the task decision.

    Content

    • Situation and question. A claim about rate, rhythm, delay, effort, inertia, recovery, currentness, or validity window is being used for action. Ask whether temporal-claim adequacy or source currentness orchestration is current.
    • Optional obstacle. A snapshot is used as a trend, a trend as a control law, or an old edition as current.
    • Template A. C.27 Solution -> Dyn2TemporalClaimAdequacyCard. Select when a local temporal claim changes supported use.
    • Template B. G.11 Solution -> RefreshCurrentnessLine@Context. Select when freshness, edition, telemetry, decay, or currentness is the live claim.
    • Boundaries. Stop at the smallest supported temporal card or currentness line. Return when window, bearer, evidence relation, model assumption, source edition, or telemetry changes. Wrong-turn recovery downgrades unsupported rate or currentness claims. Stronger neighbors are C.16 for measurement, C.28 for causal use, A.15 for work, and the direct source or publication governing patterns.
    • Result test. Template A can promise only a Dyn2TemporalClaimAdequacyCard; Template B only a RefreshCurrentnessLine@Context. Identify it under C.27 or G.11, then name the exact evaluation, decision, U.WorkPlan, dated U.Work, transformation claim, publication use, or currentness use it would answer and the relation, binding, or supported claim that makes it this timing use's result. Name refresh, measurement, causal analysis, or work only when current; otherwise stop with the missing bearer, window, edition, evidence relation, governor, or information.
    • Public coarsening. "Time check" restores to the C.27 card or G.11 line.
