ADR Checkable-Assertion Density

The executable share of each Accepted ADR's cited enforcement (pytest / make / script are executable assertions; prose is not). Frontmatter presence of enforcement is saturated and cannot move — this series tracks how executable that enforcement is, the erosion axis orthogonal to the REAL/WEAK/MISSING quality lens in adr-enforcement.md. Density = executable checks / all cited checks.

Population

  • Population: Accepted (81 ADRs)
  • Mean density (per-ADR, unweighted): 96%
  • Executable fraction (check-weighted): 98% (142 of 145 cited checks)
  • Check kinds: pytest 141, make 1, script 0, prose 3
  • Prose-count control limit (Shewhart c-chart UCL): 0.61
  • Prose outliers (non-executable enforcement anomalously concentrated — look here first): ADR-0025, ADR-0035, ADR-0051

The monthly time-series and the shared Shewhart baseline framework are deferred to the epic's framework child (#10915). This surface is the per-PR snapshot; the longitudinal trend is a later phase.
