A pointer cast changes stack referent storage into heap lifetime.

Case contract

Check statically tracked reference provenance in a toy allocation IR. An address is not an allocation identity; allocation epoch must match; offset within object or one-past only for nondereferenced pointer; raw-to-reference conversion needs a live origin; integer roundtrip cannot invent provenance; reallocation invalidates old origins; zero-sized allocations still have separate ownership IDs; union reinterpretation needs a declared active variant; stack origins cannot become heap origins by cast; a subobject reference retains the base owner. Input is a fully explicit descriptor of the stated toy IR. Return rule identifiers in declaration order; absent optional obligations use the provided neutral defaults. No rule is an assertion about a production language.

Why this case matters

A finite offline static-analysis model of ownership and borrowing; it does not execute the analyzed program.
