# Conformance Gate Template

## Pre-Implementation

- Implementation matrix exists:
- Refactor contract exists:
- Owner map exists:
- Drift checklist completed:

## Verification Commands

| Stage | Command | Expected Result | Actual Result |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| structure | | | |
| metadata/manifest bypass | | | |
| build/test | | | |
| runtime/report | | | |

## Exit Criteria

- Contract and implementation agree.
- Unsupported paths are explicit.
- Generated/runtime/report outputs match the intended owner path.
- Metadata/manifest/schema bypass findings are absent or recorded as blocking remediation.
- Residual risks are recorded.
