what fraction of a task's *actual intent* the written clauses at a seam capture; orthogonal to per-clause checkability (the determinism ladder). Raising it is contract-side craft; clause-writing that stops paying before intent is captured is *coverage exhaustion*. ([verification asymmetry](https://agentic-atlas.dev/nodes/verification-asymmetry), [the contract](https://agentic-atlas.dev/nodes/contract-documentation))
