design-falsification-test

Purpose

Specify a concrete observation, computation, intervention, counterexample, or measurement that could count against a claim.

Input contract

required: [sharp_claim, scope, candidate_observables]
optional: [cost, available_tools, competing_predictions]
constraints: [test must identify a failure condition and measurement rule]

Procedure

1. Enumerate claim commitments and possible failure observations.
2. Rank tests by information value and cost.
3. Specify the cheapest decisive test with pass/fail interpretation.

If the falsification test has an executable intervention and verdict rule, consider execute-probe as the next tactic.
