Expected

WorkloadSpec.validate() rejects every filter operator outside the supported ComparisonOperator set, including specs constructed directly rather than through from_mapping().

Actual

The typed field narrows normal callers, but runtime callers can still construct WorkloadSpec(..., operator="contains"). validate() now checks only operator is None, allowing the invalid spec to reach _predicate() and fail later with KeyError.

Impact

The runtime contract is bypassable at a public direct-construction boundary, producing a late implementation error instead of a clear validation error.

Acceptance

• Centralize supported-operator membership without widening the public Literal type.
• Keep from_mapping() and direct validate() fail-closed.
• Add a direct-construction regression test.
• Reply to and resolve the source review thread after verified merge.

Lifecycle

DISCOVERED -> ENCODED -> ROUNDTRIP_VERIFIED -> BENCHMARKED -> REPORTED; invalid predicates must fail during ENCODED boundary validation.
