Use this page when the DVC capstone routes start to blur together. The goal is not to add more jargon. The goal is to keep review attached to the right boundary.

Term	Meaning here
walkthrough	the bounded first pass through the repository without widening into stronger review routes
proof route	the smallest honest command or saved bundle that can corroborate the current claim
authoritative layer	the file or state surface that should win when multiple surfaces seem to disagree
declared state	the intended pipeline contract recorded in files such as dvc.yaml and params.yaml
recorded state	the executed pipeline outcome recorded in files such as dvc.lock and saved bundles
promoted contract	the smaller downstream-facing bundle another person is allowed to trust
recovery evidence	the artifacts that show what survives local loss because the remote still has authority
stewardship review	the stronger route used when a maintainer must judge the whole repository, not one claim
