Pursuit Policy Risk Factor Checker
Document pursuit-policy review evidence, not instructions to pursue or certify safe/legal force. Independently witnessed columns in order: applicable pursuit policy verified, independently documented incident conditions, independently documented public-risk review, qualified authorized review recorded. Known missing and unknown evidence stay distinct; not approval, compliance, readiness, authenticity or safety certification.
Description
Pursuit policy review involves incident facts, public risk and authorized oversight.
Pursuit policy review involves incident facts, public risk and authorized oversight.1
A checklist records evidence of review rather than deciding whether pursuit is permitted. Use this tool to record known present, known missing and unknown checklist evidence.
When to use Pursuit Policy Risk Factor Checker
Use this tool to record known present, known missing and unknown checklist evidence. Establish the jurisdiction or research scope, observation and event definitions, reference date, matched period and denominator basis.
How to use Pursuit Policy Risk Factor Checker and understand its results
- Establish the jurisdiction or research scope, observation and event definitions, reference date, matched period and denominator basis.
- Enter observedCriterionFlags, criterionKnownFlags, using the field meanings and rules below, then run the tool.
- Read result.witnessedCriteria, result.knownMissingCriteria, result.unknownCriteria. Interpret each field using the units, signs and evidence rules below.
- If input validation fails, correct the reported field and run again. Before applying a successful result, check the stated reference scope, units, assumptions and any retained unknown evidence.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| observedCriterionFlags | Observed criterion flags; binary 0/1 in the order documented below | list of number | Required |
| criterionKnownFlags | Criterion known flags; 1 means known and 0 means unknown; keep the same item order | list of number | Required |
Supply exactly 4 binary criterion flags and matched binary known flags in the listed order. Return witnessed labels where both flags are 1, known missing labels where known=1 and observed=0, and unknown labels wherever known=0, regardless of the placeholder observed flag. No overall diagnosis, pass or approval is inferred.
| Zero-based column | Criterion |
|---|---|
| 0 | applicable pursuit policy verified |
| 1 | independently documented incident conditions |
| 2 | independently documented public-risk review |
| 3 | qualified authorized review recorded |
witnessed={label_i:known_i=1 and observed_i=1}; missing={label_i:known_i=1 and observed_i=0}; unknown={label_i:known_i=0} Apply the field units and exact ordering, boundary and evidence rules above.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| result | Structured result containing the calculation or selected reference fields below | object |
| result.witnessedCriteria | Criterion labels observed present with known evidence | list of string |
| result.knownMissingCriteria | Criterion labels known to be absent | list of values |
| result.unknownCriteria | Criterion labels whose evidence is unknown | list of values |

}Limitations and assumptions
Feature and criterion flags are independent annotations. Unknown evidence remains unknown; matching rules do not establish a diagnosis, cause, prediction or approval.
Every listed input requires an explicit value. Unexpected fields, incorrect value types, nonfinite numbers and sparse numeric arrays fail validation; tool-specific bounds and alignment rules apply as described above. Extremely large inputs or outputs can also be rejected. An input error is distinct from a successful calculation that reports a false comparison or retains unknown evidence.
