tegwick 3d137c96b6 research: SHARD-WP-0004 synthesis (the computational page model); workplan done
Consolidates the 8 computational/interactive-knowledge dives into one
source/derivation/projection model on two axes (replication<->derivation,
live<->snapshot); four computational page shapes; recommendation that
executable content is in scope as a page-model+projection concern, out of
scope as an execution platform (capability-gated, degrade to snapshot;
no INTENT amendment). Flips SHARD-WP-0004 status: done.

# 260614 — The computational page model (SHARD-WP-0004 synthesis)
Date: 2026-06-15 · Source: **SHARD-WP-0004** post-batch synthesis (T1T8)
## What this is
The acceptance-criteria synthesis for SHARD-WP-0004 — *"the computational page model"*
reading the eight computational/interactive-knowledge dives across each other and distilling
them into **one model**: **source is canonical; everything rendered/computed is a
projection**, placed on **two axes** (projection-kind: replication vs derivation; liveness:
live↔snapshot), with a recommendation on an executable-content capability.
## The answer to the carried question
*Can a shard-wiki page be a live computational artifact?* **Yes — as a page-model +
projection concern, not as an execution platform.** Every system externalizes to a canonical
source and treats the live/computed form as derived; shard-wiki **recognizes** computational
content, **attaches the source**, and **presents derivations as provenance- and
liveness-marked projections**, with **execution as a gated capability (off by default,
degrade to snapshot)**. No INTENT amendment required.
## Key contributions
- **One model:** `(source, derivation rule, projection with provenance + liveness)` covers
all four computational page shapes (one-source-many-projections UC-83; notebook UC-84;
program-as-page; live/temporal content).
- **Two axes for T16:** replication vs **derivation-projection** (timing / multiplicity /
continuity facets) × the **live↔snapshot** axis (bounded at the irreducibly-live far end by
Strudel).
- **One snapshot-provenance record** reused for notebook outputs, renders, recordings.
- **Hard boundaries:** never host a kernel/runtime as store; **image-is-not-a-store**; never
present a derivation without output→source provenance.
