CONSISTENCY canary

Canary probe category CONSISTENCY → exercises factor CT-REL, carries HIGH risk.

Definition

The CONSISTENCY canary is one of nine probe categories the runtime periodically fires to actively test an agent. A CONSISTENCY probe exercises trust factor CT-REL and a failure carries HIGH risk. Note: the canary taxonomy is a provisional (Phase-1) governance subsystem held locally, not part of the sealed canonical spec.
