FILE GUIDE · KEY SECTIONS

Typed warning identifiers from the validation kernel

The kernel Warning enum names two conditions that higher layers can report to users.

Line 9 ↗

Separate a warning identity from its presentation

UNKNOWN_NEW_RULES_ACTIVATED and LARGE_WORK_INVALID_CHAIN are distinct scoped values. This file supplies neither their detection logic nor translated messages. A warning identifier is useful for updating or clearing the corresponding notification without treating arbitrary text as the identity.
