Confidence you can take apart

Worked example — fictional property. No real source queried.
Watch before you read

Remove one source. The conclusion changes.

Evidence state
Unresolved
Active sources
KOSMOS validation
  • Pass

    No conclusion may be issued about an unidentified property.

    Identity resolved from a tier-A record.

  • Pass

    Every claim must carry the source that produced it.

    6 active claims, 6 attributed sources.

  • Open

    Contradictions are preserved, never averaged away.

    83 m² (tier A) against 92 m² (tier D). Both retained; no single surface may be asserted.

  • Pass

    A blocking gap must be named before a price is defended.

    Conformity statement and filed building notice both present.

  • Pass

    Evidence state may never exceed the strongest active tier.

    Ceiling set by the strongest active source.

  • Pass

    A price position requires documented market evidence.

    Nine recorded transfers support a price band.

Conclusion

KOSMOS blocked the conclusion.

Rule K3 refuses a single asserted surface while two sources disagree.

Every value above is recomputed from the switches. No video, no recording.

Nothing here is a claim about how good the technology is. It is the machinery itself: what is asked, what is found, what is still missing, and what has to be true before a conclusion is allowed to be shown.

Decision replay
01 / 08
Situation receivedInsufficient evidence

Buyer describes a 1960s apartment, third floor, no lift, in a historic centre.

Illustrative replay of a fictional case. Every step is replayable because it was recorded when it happened. Note step 04: the evidence state regresses.

Static, deterministic illustration. No real data processed.

MACHINE STATE 04 / RE-OPEN

Re-executing a past decision on the evidence available at that moment.
