diagnostic-settings-parameter-contract

Type: regulative

Decision

The main diagnostic initiative must define shared defaults; parameter files may override only policy-specific values.

Why

Without a single owner for shared defaults, diagnostic behavior can drift when parameter files repeat or replace values inconsistently.

Violations

• A shared diagnostic default is hardcoded in a parameter file instead of the main initiative.
• A parameter file passes an outer-initiative parameter that the child policy does not declare.
• A policy-specific value is omitted or overridden without review.
