Run one harness against the incumbent result, an independent manual-anchor model, a candidate adapter, and where expressible a canonical-metadata or FCPXML-style baseline. Rename and relocate files, reorder registration, apply a compensated clock-origin shift, and losslessly segment a stream; then compare mappings, gaps, conflicts, rejection-state behavior, freeze behavior, diagnostic sufficiency, and implementation effort.","success_condition":"The manual-anchor model and candidate adapter agree with approved semantics within the preregistered tolerance across every valid transformation, preserve explicit gaps and conflicts, leave state unchanged after rejection, freeze idempotently, never modify source media, and provide useful invariance or substitutability beyond the schema-only baseline without requiring prohibited private fields.","falsification_condition":"The claim fails if independent implementations diverge beyond tolerance after a valid transformation, silently resolve a conflict, mutate state after rejection, modify source artifacts, require routine access to vendor or algorithm internals for authorized work, or if the schema-only baseline achieves equivalent invariance and usability with materially less integration burden.","rationale":"Adjacent standards and commercial synchronized-clip implementations establish feasibility and problem relevance but do not settle the proposal's distinctive behavioral-substitutability claim. Resolving that claim requires proprietary fixture access, incumbent outputs, production-specific semantic authority, and operator acceptance. Because the authorized read-only comparison is bounded, comparator-based, and capable of directly confirming or falsifying the incremental benefit, this belongs in the empirical-partner lane."}
