draft

A computation is recognised, not declared: a line whose label is followed by a counting phrase in backticks — in a list, a table cell or a paragraph. The label is the person's words; the phrase names one countable thing.

- Documents: `documents`
- Research notes: `documents tagged research`
- Commits this week: `commits since monday`

The product replaces the code span with the number at draw time. Nothing is ever written back: no result file, no frontmatter key, no cache as authority. A phrase it cannot count is quoted back exactly, in plain language.

Fallback: opened anywhere else this is a list with code spans in it — the label readable, the phrase honest about being an instruction.

Relation to OKF v0.2 §10 (Attested Computation): the phrase vocabulary adapts it; the document-per-number, executor, attester and receipts are deliberately not kept. A conformant v0.2 computation document is still read as a page.
