Review Checklist for UPF Consistency Audit focuses on cross-tool mismatch count, stale UPF object references, and signoff waiver backlog. The goal is to link observed behavior to power-intent mechanism, ownership, and release risk.
Failing transition and states are explicitly documented.
Policy binding is proven in reports and waveform context.
Crossing inventory matches isolation/retention/shifter strategy.
UPF revision tags are aligned across flow stages.
Waiver status includes owner, expiry, and rollback criteria.
Owners signed: methodology owner, CAD owner, low-power lead.
OWNERSHIP MAP — UPF Consistency Audit
artifact owner
---------------- -----------------
intent policy methodology owner
implementation CAD owner
verification low-power lead
Escapes happen when ownership is implicit.Cross-tool intent drift is a leading source of late low-power escapes.

Ask: what transition evidence proves this topic is closed, and which owner signs it?
State transition context must accompany every low-power metric claim.
Intent changes require simulation, formal, and implementation re-validation.
Comparing results from mismatched UPF revisions.
Assuming static checks replace transition validation.
Shipping with aged waivers and unclear ownership.
Use this pack to rehearse low-power closure on low-power/upf-implementation-flow/upf-consistency-audit/checklist: transition framing, policy ownership, implementation evidence, and release confidence.
State transition explicitly named with legal source/target states.
Crossing and domain ownership are mapped and agreed.
Policy controls are traced to always-on source logic.
Waveform bookmarks align controls with state timestamps.
Which policy object is first to deviate from intent?
Which owner can apply the smallest reversible fix?
What regression matrix proves no collateral damage?
Which waiver conditions would still block release?
