+
+> Warn when calling a Core Library method that resolves at runtime but has no known working invocation.
+
+| | |
+|---|---|
+| **Type** | `problem` |
+| **Default severity** | `warn` in `recommended` and `strict` |
+| **Fixable** | — |
+
+## Why This Rule Exists
+
+A few Core Library methods **exist** and **resolve** at runtime — the namespace or instance exposes them as callables — but exhaustive live testing has found **no working invocation**: every attempted call fails (returns the string `"Error"` or throws), and the documented success path could not be reproduced.
+
+Because these methods DO exist, they remain in completions and in the generated `.d.ts` (unlike nonexistent members). This rule warns at the **call site** so you know the call will not work at runtime, using the `nonFunctionalAtRuntime` flag from the ssjs-data catalog.
+
+## Coverage
+
+Both **static** and **instance** call styles are covered, mirroring `sfmc/ssjs-core-method-arity`:
+
+| Style | Example |
+|---|---|
+| Instance | `var fd = FilterDefinition.Init("x"); fd.Update({});` |
+| Static single-name | `FilterDefinition.Update({});` |
+| Static multi-part | `DataExtension.Rows.Add(rowObj);` |
+
+Flagged methods today: `FilterDefinition.Update`, `FilterDefinition.Remove`.
+
+## Settings
+
+| Setting | Values | Default |
+|---------|--------|---------|
+| severity | `"error"` \| `"warn"` \| `"off"` | `"warn"` |
+
+This rule has no configuration options.
+
+## Examples
+
+**Not allowed:**
+
+```js
+Platform.Load("core", "1.1.5");
+
+var fd = FilterDefinition.Init("my-filter");
+
+/* FilterDefinition.Update has no known working invocation at runtime */
+fd.Update({ Name: "renamed" });
+
+/* FilterDefinition.Remove has no known working invocation at runtime */
+fd.Remove();
+```
+
+**Allowed:**
+
+```js
+Platform.Load("core", "1.1.5");
+
+var fd = FilterDefinition.Init("my-filter");
+
+/* Add, Init, Retrieve are working invocations */
+fd.Retrieve();
+fd.Add(filterDefinitionObj);
+```
+
+## When to Disable
+
+```js
+// eslint.config.js
+rules: { 'sfmc/ssjs-no-nonfunctional-method': 'off' }
+```
