# Evidence Boundary Guide

OpenAMP Foundry should state what each evidence artifact can and cannot support.

This guide prevents a dry-lab result from being read as stronger than its review level.

## Boundary note

```markdown
## Evidence boundary

**Artifact:** Evidence certificate, benchmark report, shortlist, review packet, or model note.

**Supports:** What the artifact can support.

**Does not support:** What must not be inferred from it.

**Required next review:** maintainer | evidence | quantitative | external.

**Overread risk:** The most likely way someone could overread this artifact.

**Status:** exploratory | reviewable | bounded | handoff-ready | returned evidence.
```

## Reviewer guidance

Reviewers should ask for this note whenever an artifact could be read as stronger than it is.

## Contributor guidance

Contributors should write the boundary before writing the headline.

## Acceptance test

A boundary note is adequate when a reader can tell exactly what the artifact supports and what it does not support.
