Replay evaluation should come after synthetic replay can select stable runs and after hypothesis scoring has outputs worth validating. This phase turns architecture discipline into a repeatable test path.
## Source documents
- Architecture plan: [`docs/plans/smart-flow-architecture-review.md`](../../plans/smart-flow-architecture-review.md)
- Research report: [`docs/research-docs/smart-flow-market-mechanics.md`](../../research-docs/smart-flow-market-mechanics.md)
- Synthetic research report: [`docs/research-docs/synthetic-market-data-generation.md`](../../research-docs/synthetic-market-data-generation.md)
These documents are rationale, not added scope. This phase implements only deterministic replay evaluation and compact golden tests.
## Research basis
- Replay is the acceptance gate for derived smart-flow outputs because evidence and hypotheses must be reproducible.
- Validation must include positive cases, false positives, noisy contexts, and abstentions.
- Tests should avoid lookahead bias and compare stable signatures instead of brittle full-payload dumps.
## Deferred research ideas
- Historical backtesting windows, empirical calibration datasets, and broad benchmark reports belong in later calibration work.
## Dependencies on earlier phases
- `islandflow-zxh.1` - Smart-flow contracts and vocabulary
