# Admissibility Constraint Gate

> Gate the formalized plan on teleological admissibility before verification: sum the realized cost, compare it to the selected branch's budget and hard limits, and confirm every task traces to the selected branch — an over-budget, limit-breaching, or off-branch plan is inadmissible and routes back rather than being silently accepted.
