- import TRANSITIVE_PREDICATES and _relational_transitive (narrow reuse of Phase C verifier)
- add _relational_transitive_one_hop_candidates(ctx): for p in TRANSITIVE only, direct 2-hops p(a,c) from realized p(a,b)+p(b,c), no reflexive (a==c), dedup vs existing, same-pred only (no inverse/symmetric/cross-predicate), deterministic sort
- consolidate_once: recall member/subset as before + rel_cands via new helper; unify + global (predicate,subject,object) sort for determinism independent of recall
- processing loop: if predicate in TRANSITIVE_PREDICATES: det = _relational_transitive(...) ; if not Determined continue; realize_derived(..., rule="transitive", premise_structure_keys from det.grounds) ; else: original _verify_subsumption + _RULE...
- verification mandatory before any write (candidate construction insufficient); realize_derived produces SPECULATIVE record with replayable derivation metadata
- budget: per-p _TRANSITIVE_EDGE_BUDGET enforced inside the reused verifier (safe no-write on over); is-a subset budget unchanged
- no change to member/subset paths or _one_hop sig for is-a; member∨member fallacy structurally unreachable as before
- wrong_total=0, INV-30 (open-world, no answer=False), only the four declared preds, no FrameVerdict, no corpus/ratified mutation
Extends CLOSE (Step D) to climb declared relational transitive substrate (Phase C) exactly as specified. Existing subsumption behaviour preserved.
