Replay the shift

An unattended reactor files a claim about the shift it just worked. You are the regulator. You cannot visit it, you cannot trust its software, and you have a deterministic twin that will re-run the same commanded sequence. Find out what that actually lets you check.

Predict first

The plant's log and the twin's replay disagree. Which of these does that prove?

The shift

Where the log came from

A replay compares a filed claim against a re-run of the same commanded sequence. It can only find a discrepancy the log did not author. If the plant wrote the log, the replay is checking the plant's story against itself.

What this is modelling

A shift of hourly output from a microreactor-class plant against a deterministic twin driven by the same command sequence. Twin fidelity is the band inside which agreement is expected — it is the model's residual, exactly as in TR-2026-36. The discrepancy test is a per-hour departure beyond that band. Modelled figures throughout; nothing here is a measurement of a real plant.
