Resolution Requirements

Every non-default branch must emit:

• one relief surface;
• one cost surface;
• claim_state_after;
• future_reader_or_route_effect;
• a note about which pool function, reader, or route still needs a separate receipt.

Every default or scar branch must move at least three counters or route flags: route legitimacy, public trust, lawful friction, sponsor exposure, archive debt, candidate injury, management pressure, route tag ambiguity, encounter availability, or future route cost.
