Return the pinned metadata-only corpus descriptor, scope boundaries, entrypoints, outcome codes and material caveats. Makes no network request.

Rank compact candidates from a non-empty intent or identifier query and show nearby alternatives before selection.

Resolve an exact stable ID, native ID, route or declared evaluation alias and return the complete frozen metadata record.

Return evidence-backed field contrasts for two to five exact records. Never asserts statistical equivalence.

Bind the exact frozen identity and snapshot digest to its inspection/query tools, audience, purpose and caller-declared expiry. Preserve unresolved dimensions and reject credential fields. Never authorises or executes a query.

Validate and return a deterministic, non-persisted evaluation envelope. Accepts visible answers, evidence and caveats, never hidden reasoning.
