Method plate schema release 1
Methodology
The register explains definitions and documentation examples. It does not convert an unavailable source into a measured result.
01 / definition
Bound the metric
Every definition has a stable ID, layer, unit, privacy class, allowed field list, source references, substantive update date, and publication state. The register contains five definitions, not an open-ended ingestion surface.
02 / availability
Date the absence
Each live measurement is Unknown or Unavailable as of 2026-07-18 and carries a plain reason. An absent value is not rendered as zero, good health, low activity, or an outage.
No live feed connected; no public measurement has been published.
03 / inspection
Fail closed locally
The browser parses one JSON object, requires exactly nine fields, matches unit and privacy class against the selected metric, and rejects missing, extra, identifying, location, unknown-metric, and non-example records. Input is neither uploaded nor stored.
04 / examples
Repeat the label
Bundled records are marked example in the selector, visible notice, JSON
recordType, provenance, inspector result, and source ledger. Their fictional values demonstrate shape only and make no current claim.
Method boundary
What remains unmeasured
- No live player, activity, event, performance, protocol, availability, or uptime value is published.
- No cohort floor, delay interval, or differencing defense is represented as approved.
- No example record enters metadata, status claims, or a downloadable measured dataset.
