Capture
The source contract models idempotent synthetic intake with a stable order identifier and replay protection.

Every state should leave evidence behind
The current source stops at synthetic local release. Carrier booking, labels, and provider reconciliation remain separate future boundaries.

Canonical records and bundle expansion are product direction.

Provider work is a future, separately accepted boundary.
future request key · provider resultEach state is separate. A correction is not a release, and a release is not a carrier booking. The example above is synthetic and does not perform provider work.
Seven stages, each with its own evidence
What changes, who changed it, and why it moved are part of the record — not a note added later.

Approve & release
The source separates local correction, validation, approval, and release states. Release is not carrier execution.

Carrier booking and provider reconciliation remain discovery work. No provider handler is active.
Discovery
The principle behind the flow
Uncertainty should become visible work. It should never become an invisible assumption.
TraceableThe source record remains traceable.
ExplicitTransformations are explicit, not implied.
HonestUncertainty produces a hold, not a guess.
AuthorisedSensitive change requires authority, and authority is recorded.
RecoverableEvery outcome can be reconstructed after the fact.
Walk a safe example through it
A proposed review would use synthetic or irreversibly redacted examples, with scope and data handling agreed before anything is shared.
