- [6655138-001](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/6655138-001) [condition/argued] -- An agent coordination system implements Computative Economics if and only if every component of the computative agent tuple has a corresponding settlement-layer surface carrying proposal, validation, execution, and reflection mechanics, and the action sets of the system are themselves agent products subject to the same validation economics as the actions executed within them.
  > An agent coordination system implements Computative Economics when, and only when, every component of the computative agent tuple has a corresponding settlement-layer surface with proposal, validation, execution, and reflection mechanics

- [6655138-015](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/6655138-015) [definitional/asserted] -- A possibility loop is stipulated as a five-tuple consisting of a surface of action-set elements, a proposal mechanism, a validation mechanism, an execution mechanism, and a reflection mechanism that updates the reputation of proposers, validators, and the surface itself.
  > A possibility loop is a tuple (Σ, π, ν, ξ, ρ) consisting of: a surface Σ of action-set elements. A proposal mechanism π through which agents post elements to Σ. A validation mechanism ν through which other agents accept, reject, or rate proposed elements.
