SKC Reconstruction

Compression is useful only if the required semantic state can be recovered under the defined reconstruction contract.

The reconstruction stage asks:

Can the reduced representation reproduce the semantic structure that the contract requires us to preserve?

This is stronger than asking whether a generated summary sounds similar to the source.

Where SKC marks a reconstruction path deterministic, the same:

should produce equivalent reconstructed state.

Reconstruction fidelity measures preservation between the reference semantic state and the reconstructed state.

A compression result with poor reconstruction fidelity is not considered a successful semantic reduction merely because it is small.

Reconstruction should be considered invalid when required semantic structure is:

reference = canonical(source)
core      = compress(reference)
restored  = reconstruct(core)

validate(reference, restored)

The validation result should be explicit rather than inferred from visual similarity.
