D170 - A document may anchor a claim to the source
Status: decided Date: 2026-09-26
A document states
<!-- obscene:claim file=<path> contains=<token> -->
(or absent=) above a passage, and
obscene-tool claims fails when the token no longer holds.
Markers inside fenced blocks and markers without file= are
skipped. Claims are written by hand for the passages a reader acts
on.
Why: prose describing behaviour cannot be diffed, but the literal it rests on can. Inferred claims would produce false failures.
Rejected: checking prose automatically.
