## Repair

- Refactored by: Index the Rejection Table by Refused Word, Name the Covering Concern in the Refusal
- Detected by: a refusal message naming only the rejected word, and a rejection table readable by the developer but not by the gate
- Violated by: reporting that a word is undeclared without resolving the declared word that covers it
- Measured by: share of refusals carrying a resolved replacement
- Enforced by: registry-backed naming gate, rejection-table index drift-check
