+"""Candidate foundations for one camp's record: sources in, validated candidates out.
+
+CG3-2 of docs/design/abduction.md. A proposing model is one CandidateSource among
+possibly several, never a judge: every candidate must parse in the strict FOL grammar
+(``fol.parse``) and carry at least one verbatim quote whose span exists in the source
+document; anything else is dropped before any plausibility score exists (RESEARCH.md
+§15.3 item 1). Validation is purely syntactic and textual — nothing here decides
+entailment; that is the certified layer (CG3-3), and no model output ever reaches Lean.
