## Results

```json
{
  "constraint_basis": {
    "path": "model/covenant_claim_basis.json",
    "sha256": "813a015778b6da7bd56c32e93d1b37f4a6ff47ff75a18d511613542ebcc064e7",
    "bytes": 1791
  },
  "rank": 8,
  "free_dimensions": 5
}
```

## Finding

Nine selected claims reduce to eight equations in the variable local model. Path identities and fixed-source-dependent equivalences are classified separately.

## Reassessment

Identify what the prominent numerical normalizations add beyond these relations.

## Checks

```json
{
  "rank_eight": true,
  "first_eight_basis": true,
  "all_source_residuals": true
}
```
