CVP verified calculation capability

Measurement bias (trueness) Calculation Capability

VIM trueness: signed bias = x̄ − xm from repeats on a master. s may be zero. Not a single-shot measurement error, not Type A u_A, and not Type-1 Cg (no T).

Trust

CVP VERIFIED · CVP protocol 1.0.0-proposed · Engineering assurance · Signed bias x̄ − xm from repeats on a master, + O3 mpmath tabulated bias.. Computational verification is defined by CVP. Supplemental domain review (internal) and named expert review are defined by the Review policy and do not by themselves determine CVP conformance.

Numerical scope
O2: signed bias vs a separate-module sample identity (≤2 ULP). Not Type A u_A and not a single-shot error. ≤2 ULP vs O3 applies only to the published tabulated bias vectors. Not Type A uncertainty.

Call this capability

Human page, REST, and MCP share the same engine and calculation_version. Build verified hashes workspace artifacts only. After deploy, attest:production GETs canonical URLs twice — the public/cached view an Agent actually hits, and origin — including every /capabilities/{id} HTML page. Public Capability HTML version must match catalog before production attestation passes. Live Trust rows above fetch /.well-known/calculatorx-production-attestation.json and the output schema const. Build hashes: release integrity. That proves currently published page / engine / schema / evidence / MCP agree — not that a historical version is independently immutable. Reference Calculation Standard — Production surface contract 6/6.
