How to use Work Made For Hire Freelancer IP Gap Warning Checker and understand its results

Establish the business period, event definitions, jurisdiction or agreement edition, and independently documented evidence or comparison rubric.
Enter callerFreelancerIpClassIds, callerFreelancerIpRequirements, observedFreelancerIpEvidence, knownFreelancerIpFlags, using the field meanings and rules below, then run the tool.
Read compatibleCallerClasses, fullyWitnessedCallerClasses. Interpret the fields using their units, signs and evidence conventions below.
If input validation fails, correct the reported field and run again. Before applying the result, check reference scope, model assumptions and any missing evidence or placeholder values.

Input field	Meaning	Value type	Requirement
callerFreelancerIpClassIds	Caller freelancer ip class ids	list of string	Required
callerFreelancerIpRequirements	Caller freelancer ip requirements	list of list of number	Required
observedFreelancerIpEvidence	Observed freelancer ip evidence	list of number	Required
knownFreelancerIpFlags	Known freelancer ip flags; binary 1=known, 0=unknown, in the order described below	list of number	Required

Supply nonempty unique class IDs and a rectangular binary requirement matrix with one row per class and one column per observed feature. Every class must require at least one positive feature. Supply aligned binary observation and known-flag lists. A requirement 0 ignores its column; a requirement 1 permits a class only if the feature is unknown or observed present. Fully witnessed classes require every required feature to be known present. Return all compatible and fully witnessed caller classes in caller order; unknown evidence can leave several candidates, and known absent required evidence excludes a class. The rubric is supplied rather than installed.

compatible={class:each required column is unknown or present}; witnessed={class:each required column is known present}

Use the exact units, boundary rules, ordering and missing-evidence conventions above.

Output field	Meaning	Value type
compatibleCallerClasses	Every supplied class whose required features are unknown or known present	list of string
fullyWitnessedCallerClasses	Every supplied class with all required features known present	list of string

Limitations and assumptions

Features and criteria are independent annotations. Compatible candidates and retained unknown evidence do not establish an identity, interpretation, overall pass or permission.

All listed fields require explicit values. Unexpected fields, incorrect types, nonfinite numbers and sparse evidence arrays fail validation; the specific bounds and alignment requirements are stated above. Extremely large inputs or outputs can also be rejected. An input error is distinct from a successful result reporting false, no matches or missing evidence.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Use IP Assignment Agreement Signed Checker for this related task: IP assignment coverage depends on which independently required contributors are covered by signed arrangements.

Use TOS Limitation Liability Arbitration Presence Checker when its separate inputs and assumptions fit the question: Contract clauses can be separately annotated for a review rubric.
