+||| Layer-5 CAPSTONE: a single end-to-end ABI SOUNDNESS CERTIFICATE for
+||| Phronesiser.
+|||
+||| This module proves NO new domain theorem. It ASSEMBLES the facts already
+||| discharged by the prior proof layers into ONE inhabited record value,
+||| `abiContractDischarged`. Because that value can only be constructed from
+||| genuine witnesses exported by the lower layers, its mere existence (the
+||| fact that this module type-checks) certifies that the whole ABI contract
+||| is satisfied TOGETHER, end to end:
+|||
+|||   manifest (phronesiser.toml: "provably safe ethical constraints")
+|||     -> Layer-2 FLAGSHIP semantics   (Phronesiser.ABI.Semantics)
+|||          the canonical positive control `safeInformPermitted` witnesses
+|||          that the permitted action genuinely carries a permission proof,
+|||          the live half of the safety property whose negative half is
+|||          `forbiddenNeverPermitted`.
+|||     -> Layer-3 deeper INVARIANT      (Phronesiser.ABI.Invariants)
+|||          `noHarmTightensBase` witnesses monotone safety's hypothesis
+|||          (the stronger policy really tightens the base policy, quantified
+|||          over all actions), and `forbiddenStaysForbidden` is the live
+|||          application: tightening never re-permits a forbidden action.
+|||     -> Layer-4 FFI SEAM              (Phronesiser.ABI.FfiSeam)
+|||          `resultToIntInjective` witnesses that distinct ABI outcomes never
+|||          collide on the C wire — the boundary at which the proofs meet code.
+|||
+||| If ANY of those prior layers were unsound, the corresponding field below
+||| would have no inhabitant and `abiContractDischarged` would not type-check.
+||| The certificate is therefore a genuine composition, not a restatement.
+|||
+||| Genuine proof only — no believe_me / idris_crash / assert_total /
+||| postulate / sorry / %hint hacks. Every field is an already-exported
+||| witness from the layer named above. %default total.
