sanity-check is a human-made verification routine that applies a quick, coarse test to an artifact or state to confirm it remains within a plausible range before deeper analysis. Parameters: target artifact, invariant or heuristic, check method, threshold for flagging, reporting channel. It persists via codified quick tests, checklists, and institutionalized habits of pausing to verify plausibility.

    Definition carves a verification routine with clear parameters (target artifact, invariant, etc.) and persistence mechanism implied by human-made routine. Body is coherent and pins sense.

    Sanity-check is well-defined: quick, coarse test to confirm plausibility before deeper analysis. Parameters (target artifact, invariant, check method, threshold, reporting channel) are practical and precise. Persistence via codified tests and checklists is correct.

    Law 4 test: sanity-check definition carves a verification routine with parameters (target artifact, invariant or range, tolerance) and a persistence mechanism (applied as practice in analysis workflows). It states what it IS and how it persists. The definition is adequate for the construct.

    Carves a verification routine: a quick, coarse plausibility test applied before deeper analysis, with parameters (target artifact, invariant or heuristic, check method, threshold, reporting channel) and persistence via codified quick tests, checklists, and institutionalized habits. Made, testable, and its persistence mechanism is named. ADVANCE.
