Profile verification
- Every visible message has well-formed explicit sequence numbering; reply numbering is dotted beneath its request.
- Numbering is semantic interaction order; screen geometry and node order do not replace it.
- Add combined-fragment references and time/duration constraints; referenced messages must resolve. Preserve explicit numbering independently of graph layout.
- Reuse the named base machinery while retaining this profile identity, method route, styling scope and exclusions. Renderer reuse does not import unrelated method permissions.
Profile defaults
Explicit file settings override eligible CSS, then these profile defaults and the common standard apply. Unspecified semantic facts remain unspecified.

Bounded analysis
Structural verification and display only; no execution or implied process engine.
