ROOT CAUSE

Clock usability ignores error budget or rejects bounded holdover.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Preserve the declared coordinate and state contract at usable: usable = state in ('locked','holdover') and error <= r['error_limit'].

Unsuccessful approach: The partial correction still substitutes state == 'locked' at the same fault site.

Case contract

Clock quality state is determined from oscillator validity, acquisition lock count, elapsed time since last sync, max holdover, phase jump and lock threshold. Unknown oscillator is invalid; otherwise large phase jump requires reacquisition, recent sufficient lock is synchronized, old but bounded history is holdover, and missing/expired history is unsynchronized. Return usability and conservative uncertainty growth for holdover only.

Why this case matters

Clock transfer and timestamp consumers require preserved coordinate, phase, validity and elapsed-time semantics.

Verification & scope

Deterministic integer reference model with stipulated units and policies; not a complete clock, wire standard or platform implementation. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
