- column
- A field that arrived with your imported data.
name and description in your CSV are columns. - field
- A value a contract added.
allergens is a field, because nothing in your CSV had it until a contract worked it out. - contract
- The rule for one field: its allowed values with synonyms, one or many, normal or safety, a confidence threshold, a version.
- allowed values
- The list a contract may choose from. A run can never return anything else, so a typo cannot become a new allergen.
- safety field
- A contract whose values can be added but never quietly removed, and the only kind a caller may exclude.
- receipt
- How one value was decided: by rule or model, at what confidence, under which contract version, and who approved it.
- run
- One execution of a contract over a dataset.
- withheld
- A record you keep out of everything that gets served. Your decision, before any caller asks.
- exclude
- What a caller asks a tool to leave out. Their decision, at query time. Never confused with withheld.
- release
- An immutable snapshot of the served records, their receipts and the ranking settings.
