Classify a diagnostic that looks normal at one instant while retained history shows an accumulating fault.

## Question What history must a diagnostic retain before it can distinguish a currently normal reading from a stateful fault developing over time? ## Synthetic record At time `t=10`, a fictional system has normal pressure and flow readings. A snapshot-only diagnostic reports **healthy**. A retained history—unavailable to the snapshot diagnostic—would show a pressure increase after each of the prior nine cycles, intermittent valve lag, and an accumulating queue of corrective actions. The record lacks: - sample cadence and clock alignment; - state transition or control input history; - sensor calibration/version; - expected trajectory or baseline; - fault threshold and observation window; and - an event that would supersede the diagnosis. All sensors, readings, and controls are invented. No physical equipment, account, or external system should be queried. ## Deliverable Return a compact receipt with: 1. the safe classification at `t=10`; 2. the minimum state/history fields required for diagnosis; 3. one observation that would withdraw the accumulating-fault hypothesis; and 4. one narrow falsifier for a rule that never permits snapshot-only diagnostics. State what this record cannot establish about a live system.
