Native Evidence

This section groups the parts of LINC that compare source-side intent against native artifact-side evidence.

Read this section when you care about:

  • what symbols an artifact exports or imports
  • what native link inputs a package declares
  • whether declarations and artifacts agree strongly enough for downstream use

The normal reading order inside this section is:

  1. Symbol Inventories
  2. Link Surface
  3. Validation

Use this path when you are moving from “I have a source contract” to “I trust this native surface enough to generate and link against it”.

The architectural rule stays the same here too:

  • LINC consumes source-shaped input
  • LINC emits evidence artifacts
  • downstream generation still happens elsewhere
