Synthetic falsification · zero live authority
Metamorphic assurance

Change one fact. Demand the exact claims change with it.

Each case starts from a deterministic synthetic evidence chain, applies one named mutation, reruns the real pure FlowSentinel derivations, and checks the expected before/after relations. There is no global trust score: the test names which layer must degrade, which neighboring claim must remain stable, and which authority must stay impossible.

Mutation #4Expected propagationsource: synthetic-maturity-firewall
