OQ — Operational Qualification

Operational Qualification proves that the running sovereign stack produces correct outputs. Every check runs against the live Franklin.app process — not mocks, not stubs.

Document reference: GFTCL-OQ-001-M8

Framework: GAMP 5 | EU Annex 11

Stack: Pure Swift 6.2 / SPM

Prerequisite: IQ CALORIE (all 7 IQ checks passed)

---

Running OQ

In-app (runtime gate — 7 checks):

1. Launch Franklin.app and wait for stack ready (~30s for VQbitVM first heartbeat)

2. Click ⬡ → Run Qualification… → RUN QUALIFICATION

3. OQ runs automatically after IQ completes

Build-time (CI gate — ~80 OQ-tier tests):

cd cells/xcode
swift test --filter GaiaFTCLOQTests

OQ Checks (7 in-app checks)

ID	Name	Passes when
OQ-001	VQbitVM emitted vm.ready	`SovereignStackLauncher.phase == .ready`
OQ-002	C4 constitutional health measurable	`mean(c1..c4) > 0` from live `ManifoldOverlayStore`
OQ-003	Terminal state derivation correct	`health >= 0.65 → .calorie`, `0.35..0.65 → .cure`, `< 0.35 → .blocked`
OQ-004	Sovereign cell quorum met	`liveCells >= 5` OR `stackReady` (standalone mode)
OQ-005	Awakening ceremony completed	`ManifoldState.timestampUTC` is non-empty
OQ-006	C4MemoryStore contains genesis record	Memory store has a GENESIS event from this session
OQ-007	Quantum proof invariant	`quantumAlgorithmCount() == 19`

---

OQ-004 — Cell quorum, two pass paths

Path A — Production mesh: liveCells >= CellDescriptor.quorumRequired (5)

FranklinDriver subscribes to gaiaftcl.vm.heartbeat. When VQbitVM's heartbeat arrives (~30s post-launch), all 9 mesh cell IDs (hel-01..hel-05, nbg-01..nbg-04) are marked live. OQ-004 detail shows: 9/9 cells live — quorum threshold: 5.

Path B — Standalone sovereign: stackReady == true

Before VQbitVM's first heartbeat fires, launcher.phase == .ready satisfies quorum. OQ-004 passes via this path for the first 30s after launch; detail shows: Standalone sovereign mode — VQbitVM + FCS instantiated.

Continuous operational measurement — Quantum C4

In addition to the build-time OQ suite, the cell runs a continuous operational walk against 19 quantum algorithms + 7 combination stacks. v38 seeded 26 sovereign_scenarios (domain='quantum_algorithm' × 19 and domain='quantum_combination' × 7); v39 corrected their warrant queries to the per-algorithm substrate-resident teaching atom. The SentinelReflectionLoop walks them on a 30s cadence, the QuantumC4MetricsAggregator refreshes quantum_c4_metrics every 30s, and the ContinuousImprovementLoop records every autonomous targeting decision in improvement_loop_audit every 60s.

The substrate-resident result is that operational status for every quantum algorithm is queryable at any tauBlock without rerunning a build-time test. The same current_health / calorie_rate_24h / drift_indicator shape the runtime sentinel emits is the shape the runtime aggregator exposes. See Quantum-C4-Autonomous-Loop for the schemas and inspection queries.
