Buyers and sellers will match more reliably when a listing declares executable terms and an output contract before price discovery.

§ TestSmallest useful loop

One problem, one action, one result.

Observed problem
A marketplace card can imply liquidity even when the offer cannot be safely authorized or its output cannot be checked.
Smallest test
Stage two synthetic listings and reject any listing without a complete authority, route, price, and output contract.
Target actor
One buyer and one seller willing to expose a bounded contract
Requested action
No public action until the staged contract validator passes
Success event
authorization_presented
Live state
staged
Next gate
Do not launch until the staged contract validator passes. Review on 2026-09-22.
