TR-CORE-EFFECTS / Effects and bounded calls
IF
A function, module or loop declares work.
HOW
Validate declared/inferred effects, bounded loop behavior and permitted call structure; carry admitted
resource limits into execution.
THEN
Reject unsupported effect or recursion/resource behavior rather than treating it as an implicit host capability.
CURRENT EVIDENCE
Fresh related language/paper/water checks are in the evidence ledger. The test count is suite evidence, not
proof of every branch in this requirement.
REMAINING REQUIREMENT
Use the source and recorded case evidence to close remaining per-branch, native-host and full-contract coverage gaps.
