Verified calculation capability

Linear equation Calculation Capability

Solve ax + b = rhs for x. a = 0 is identity or inconsistent. Not the quadratic formula. · Math · Algebra

Model

Solution

Solution: x = (rhs − b) / a
Identity: a = 0 and b = rhs → every x
Inconsistent: a = 0 and b ≠ rhs → no solution

Inputs / Outputs

Canonical symbols for this capability. Agent schemas remain the contract.

Symbol	Quantity	Unit	Role
`a`	Coefficient of x	—	input / output
`b`	Constant term (default 0)	—	input / output
`rhs`	Right-hand side. REST alias: c	—	input / output
`x`	—	—	output
`formula`	—	—	output

Assumptions / Validity

Declared scope for this capability. Do not use it outside this domain.

Assumptions

Degree 1 only
Not quadratic

Example

One numerical check. The calculator page holds worked steps and FAQ.

a=2 b=3 rhs=11 → x=4

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 4/4.
