+## 因子／特征合同 v1
+
+`quant_engine.factor_contracts` 提供 `researchhub.factor-definition` 与
+`researchhub.factor-set-ref` `1.0.0`。合同使用受限 canonical JSON：只接受 ASCII
+lower-snake-case object key、UTF-8 string、bool/null 和 safe integer；小数参数必须用显式
+canonical decimal string。定义、输入映射、上游证据、输出 schema/content 和 lineage 的任一
+语义变化都会产生新 identity。
+
+创建 `FactorSetRef` 必须提供完整且可重算 identity 的 `DatasetSnapshotEnvelope` 与
+`DataFoundationEnvelope`，不能用 ID 字符串或布尔值代替资格证明。每个因子输入都要映射到一个
+实际选中的 `StandardizedViewRef`，schema 必须同时匹配定义和 view；未消费、缺失、重复或跨
+snapshot/Foundation/PIT 的 view 都会失败关闭。snapshot PIT 可以早于 Foundation/view PIT，
+但始终满足 knowledge ≤ snapshot PIT ≤ Foundation/view/FactorSet PIT ≤ evaluation。
+
+```python
+from quant_engine.factor_contracts import (
+    DataFoundationEnvelope,
+    DatasetSnapshotEnvelope,
+    FactorDefinition,
+    FactorSetRef,
+)
+
+snapshot = DatasetSnapshotEnvelope.from_dict(dataset_snapshot_v1)
+foundation = DataFoundationEnvelope.from_dict(data_foundation_v1)
+
+# definition 必须是完整的 FactorDefinition；FactorSetRef.create 还要求显式 input bindings、
+# view availability、output quality/coverage、canonical output bytes 和 immutable artifact ref。
+factor_set = FactorSetRef.create(
+    definitions=(definition,),
+    dataset_snapshot=snapshot,
+    foundation=foundation,
+    **explicit_factor_set_evidence,
+)
+```
+
+`availability_mode="as_available"` 声明 source/view 和计算产物在历史 evaluation 前实际可用；
+`"retrospective_replay"` 保留历史 evaluation，但要求真实 publication/view creation、compute 和
+artifact 时间位于之后，并固定 `historical_availability="not_established"`。两种模式都不会授予
+decision、real-data、production、paper 或 live readiness。
+
+旧 `governed_pipeline.FactorVersion` 的四字段构造器、`factor_id@version`、run/target/risk/order
+identity 均保持不变。迁移只能通过 content-addressed `LegacyFactorBinding`，再显式调用
+`bind_legacy_factor()` 或 `project_legacy_factor()`；后者是有损投影，不表示旧 digest 与新定义
+digest 等价，也不会把旧 run 静默升级为新合同。
+
+## 回测引用与证据合同 v1
+
+`quant_engine.governed_pipeline.BacktestRunRef` 是合格回测运行身份的唯一权威。`run_id` 只由
+已验收的 Dataset Snapshot / Data Foundation / `FactorSetRef` 身份、universe、日历与公司行动
+祖先、策略、执行/成本模型、严格整数 seed、完整代码提交、环境锁、配置、时间和重放血缘决定；
+它不包含任何输出摘要。重放必须绑定直接父运行、连续 attempt 和不变的
+`replay_spec_digest`，输入漂移或血缘环会失败关闭。
+
+`quant_engine.artifact.BacktestEvidenceManifest` 只摘要 `ResearchRunArtifact` 已有的九张事实表。
+固定 `offline_research_v1` 映射为 `run`、`signal`、`fill`、`position_nav`、`performance`、
+`attribution`、`risk_snapshot` 与 `replay`；每张表都保留列模式摘要、行数和内容摘要，空 risk
+表也必须有稳定 schema。`manifest_id` 由完整 RunRef 与输出证据决定，因此结果变化不会反向改变
+`run_id`。当前 artifact 不拥有订单或拒绝事实，所以此画像明确不声明 `order` / `rejection`。
+
+旧 `BacktestRun` 只能通过 `build_legacy_backtest_evidence_manifest()` 显式映射为
+`LEGACY_EXPLORATORY`；不能隐式提升为 `CONTRACT_QUALIFIED`。所有资格均只描述离线证据闭合，
+不表示投资有效、组合获批、Paper、生产或实盘就绪。
+
+## 组合决策与风险评估合同 v1
+
+`quant_engine.portfolio_risk_contracts` 是现有计算 owner 外围的薄合同层。创建
+`PortfolioDecision` 必须同时提供完整 `BacktestRunRef`、嵌入同一 RunRef 的
+`CONTRACT_QUALIFIED` 非 legacy `BacktestEvidenceManifest`、现有 `PortfolioTarget`、
+`FreshnessPolicy`、`ConstraintSetV1` 与 `ComputationReceipt`。适配器会从权威输入独立重算
+receipt 的 input/constraint/output digest、敞口、持仓数和 L1 turnover 残差；receipt 自报
+成功、fallback 或放宽 tolerance 均不能替代复核。
+
+```python
+from quant_engine.portfolio_risk_contracts import (
+    ComputationReceipt,
+    ConstraintSetV1,
+    FreshnessPolicy,
+    assess_portfolio_risk,
+    build_portfolio_decision,

+freshness = FreshnessPolicy(
+    max_manifest_age_seconds=3600,
+    max_covariance_age_days=5,
+)
+constraints = ConstraintSetV1(
+    gross_exposure_max=1.0,
+    single_asset_max=0.10,
+    position_count_max=20,
+    turnover_max=0.30,
+)
+
+# 生产者先形成公开 canonical digest；decision 构建时仍会独立重算。

+    objective_version="1.0.0",
+    objective_digest=objective_digest,
+    model_name="factor_weighting",
+    model_version="1.0.0",
+    model_digest=model_digest,
+    expected_return_digest=expected_return_digest,

+    covariance=covariance_snapshot,
+    risk_model_name="euler_volatility",
+    risk_model_version="1.0.0",
+    risk_model_digest=risk_model_digest,
+)
+```
+
+`source_universe_digest` 保留 S3 研究 universe 身份，`portfolio_asset_set_digest` 只描述实际
+目标资产标签；二者不会互相冒充成员证明。风险评估在任何数值计算前要求 covariance、target、
+RunRef 的 dataset identity 三方一致，并且只调用一次现有 `labeled_component_risk()`。合同中的
+`qualified` 仅表示 S4.1 计算证据闭合，不授予 maker-checker、发布、订单、Paper、生产或实盘权限。
+
+## 治理垂直切片
+
+`governed_pipeline` 不复制因子、回测、组合或执行算法，只编排现有能力并补充版本与风险契约。
+调用方必须显式提供 `DatasetSnapshot`、`FactorVersion`、`StrategyVersion`、代码提交和
+`RiskPolicy`。模块只会生成 `environment="paper"` 的订单意图，不连接数据库、数据供应商或
+券商；风险决策为拒绝时，订单意图固定为空，直接调用创建函数也会失败关闭。
+
+该切片对应 ResearchHub 架构的首个可执行验收链路：
+
+```text
+DatasetSnapshot → FactorVersion → StrategyVersion → BacktestRun
+→ PortfolioTarget → RiskDecision → PaperOrderIntent
+```
+
+平台总架构、五仓职责和十二层能力映射仍以 `research_platform/docs/architecture/` 为权威；
+本仓只拥有纯计算与离线模拟合同。
