15|---|---|---|---|
16| {CONTRACT, DOC/TEST/USER SOURCE} | {COMMAND OR REQUEST, EVIDENCE PATH} | {OUTPUT AND DURABLE EFFECT} | pass / fail / blocked / not run / inconclusive / not applicable (reason) |
18No visual score applies to this functional section. In a mixed report, keep the
19browser section's score and evidence separate, and link both surfaces' replay
20evidence and regression baselines. Do not combine their scores or outcomes.

33## Discoveries and permanent tests
35Link each `exploration-NNN.json` checkpoint, saved before its next probe, in this report.
36Each checkpoint receipt prints its `link`; `.qa-evidence/NNN` capture folders are not checkpoints.
37Use one Markdown entry per checkpoint, for example:
39- [checkpoint 001](exploration-001.json) — how this observation shaped the next probe.
41Use the actual filename and a path relative to this report (or its owned absolute
42path); plain or backticked filenames are not links.
43Include superseded checkpoints as history, not current passing evidence.
44Keep these original notes with the report.
46| Hypothesis / discovery | Native test or proposed case | Red evidence before repair | Green + original + adjacent evidence | Parent disposition |
47|---|---|---|---|---|
48| {OBSERVATION THAT CHANGED THE NEXT PROBE} | {UNIT / INTEGRATION / E2E; PATH OR REPORT-ONLY PROPOSAL} | {EXACT DEFECT FAILURE OR HEALTHY CONTRACT} | {ACTUAL RESULTS OR NOT RUN} | {AUTHORIZED CHANGE / SUGGESTION / DEFERRED} |

50## Coverage limits and cleanup
52List unexecuted charters, unavailable prerequisites, denied effects, ambiguous contracts,
53incomplete observations and remaining risk. Do not count them as passes. Name owned
54processes/state cleaned and anything left behind. State whether later changes invalidated
55evidence. Report-only must identify proposals separately from tests actually created.
