+# Conditional Scope Note (2026-04)
+
+## Status
+Conditional.
+
+## Repository-compatible boundary
+This repository is statement-only and frozen.
+It does not claim:
+1. implementations;
+2. simulations;
+3. numerical collapse bounds;
+4. ontological claims about the wavefunction.
+
+## Weakest conditional extension
+Assume an operational information-capacity bound
+\[
+I_{\mathrm{eff}}(M,\rho,\mathcal A)\le C(M,\mathcal A)
+\]
+for each measurement context \(M\), state \(\rho\), and apparatus class \(\mathcal A\).
+
+Assume further that collapse updates are admissible only when the post-update distinguishability gain satisfies
+\[
+\Delta D \le F(C(M,\mathcal A)).
+\]
+
+Then any quantitative collapse theorem in this framework must pass through an explicit capacity witness:
+\[
+W=(M,\rho,\mathcal A,C,\Delta D).
+\]
+
+## Minimal conditional consequence
+If a certified witness \(W\) is exhibited with
+\[
+\Delta D > F(C(M,\mathcal A)),
+\]
+then the proposed quantitative collapse extension is invalid for that apparatus class.
+
+## Label
+This note is CONDITIONAL.
+It preserves the repository's current statement-only frozen scope.
