Reference

The words, defined once.

The suite uses a small, precise vocabulary. If a term reads like jargon, it is doing specific work — this page says what.

Anchor: A dish you lock before the rest of the menu is scored. Locking one re-scores every other role against it.
Hard stop: A refusal, not a warning. The plan does not continue past a hard stop — capacity, allergen boundary, or an official conflict.
Stress axis: One of five operational readings: Balance, Make Ahead, Service Fit, Equipment Fit, Host Freedom.
Contract version: The versioned shape of a handoff packet. A receiver states which version it accepts; mismatches fail closed.
Confirm burden: How much you must still verify directly with a room before the booking is real.
Thin field: A record with too little first-party evidence to rank confidently. Kept visible rather than filled in.
Planning filter: A dietary category used to shape a plan. Never a safety guarantee — cross-contact stays with the kitchen.
Fail closed: When a constraint is breached, the tool stops instead of quietly degrading the plan.
