03 — Process Candidate Generation

Candidate layer = wf_process_candidate (19 rows) + wf_process_candidate_member (143 object links). Birth-free, additive, no triggers, no dot_tools insert. 17 of 19 candidates are populated (2 catch-alls empty by design).

The 6 genuinely new managed-process candidates

WPC-BACKUP-DR, WPC-PERM-GUARD, WPC-RECONCILE, WPC-HEALTH-MON, WPC-CONTENT-PUBLISH, WPC-APPROVAL-LIFECYCLE — each is a scheduler/trigger-driven multi-entrypoint process with a clear start (cron/timer fires) and end hypothesis (artifact/report/side-effect). Each carries dryrun_realrun_evidence = NONE (0 DRY_RUN/0 REAL_RUN) — structural discovery only, honestly flagged. Confidence 0.74–0.82.

Each candidate field captured

candidate_code, name, process_type (11-value domain), origin_layer, classification, start/end hypothesis, runtime_evidence, dryrun_realrun_evidence, owner_status (UNASSIGNED), birth_status (NOT_REQUESTED), governance_status (NONE), rp_visibility, confidence, ai_review_state, next_action, canon_gate_status (CANDIDATE_STAGE), member_count, lifecycle_status (DRAFT).
