Reproduce published state
Check out the exact Git commit, replay canonical events, and compare every published root before interpreting the result.
- 01
Use the frontier page
Each published frontier includes exact clone, checkout, and replay commands plus the roots that must match.
- 02
Replay the checkout
Run Vela inside the standalone exact clone, not a dirty or adjacent development worktree.

Interpret the result narrowly
Successful replay verifies the bytes and reducer behavior. It does not waive strict blockers, prove freshness, or accept a scientific claim.
