The template asserts 'one more value is still needed' (exactly one). Rendering
the first of several missing slots and ignoring the rest makes that claim
subtly false. Refuse multi-slot assessments with multi_slot_not_supported
(slot=None) rather than render-first-drop-rest; one-question-per-slot fan-out
is a later rung. Replaces the now-contradicting first-of-many test with a
test that pins the honest refusal.
Add core/epistemic_questions/ — the renderer rung of the ASK spine.
render_question(LimitationAssessment) -> EpistemicQuestion turns ASK typed
residue into a user-facing question or an explicit question_unrenderable verdict.
Render only: no bus delivery, no served disposition, no serving (that is Q1-D).
Policy (scoping §2 / session §1.5.7 wrong=0 invariant): a question may name a
problem entity only if it appears verbatim in grounded_terms. Two substrate facts
force a generic-structural policy today: grounded_terms is empty everywhere (the
readers do not yet emit verbatim evidence), and a *missing* slot's referent is by
definition absent from the trace. So the renderer:
- renders a generic question whose only variable content is a controlled English
phrase for the slot's expected_unit_or_type, from a closed audited map;
- never surfaces slot_name or binding_target (snake_case), never prettifies an
identifier into a natural-language entity, never names a problem entity;
- degrades unmapped types to question_unrenderable (renderability_gap) rather
than dumping raw snake_case;
- single-slot (first slot only); non-ASK / zero-slot -> unrenderable;
- post-render fabrication guard re-checks every token is closed-vocab scaffold or
grounded (defense in depth).
Off-serving: imports no generate.derivation / core.reliability_gate (AST-tested).
Tests: 9/9 green; smoke 90/0.
