+## Consumer maps are rows, never prose

+Every enumerated relationship between code and canon belongs in the shape
+ledger, not in a sentence. When you establish that call sites route through a
+canonical helper — during an audit, a verify pass, or a consolidation —
+record each consuming definition with
+`classify_shapes(project_id, [{path, symbol, status: "instance", snippet_id}])`.
+A deliberate departure is a `"variant"` (reason required — the why IS the
+record); a judged one-off is `"exempt"` (reason required). Prose in a
+verification detail cannot be sorted, queried, or diffed; rows are what make
+"what uses this?" answerable forever. `list_shapes(project_id,
+status="unclassified")` is the standing todo — and N same-shaped occurrences
+matching no canon means derive one first (consolidate, `create_snippet`,
+then classify the rest against it), never N loose classifications.
