Count phase cycles
\[dJ=\frac{d\Phi}{2\pi}\]
One unit of J is one complete phase cycle. A period is a duration; a JIF is the counted cycle itself. This definition does not introduce a new absolute time.

JIF turns phase into an auditable count
JIF tracks how many phase cycles a physical system accumulates, while keeping massive-system proper time, null-path transfer phase, detector references, and empirical scoring explicitly separate.
Operational definition
One count, two carefully separated physical routes
JIF is dimensionless counted phase. Its interpretation depends on the worldline and measurement protocol.
Proper-time accumulation
\[dJ=f_0\,d\tau,\qquad \frac{dJ}{dt}=f_0D(r)\]
The static SSZ clock factor maps coordinate time to the system's proper-time phase rate.
Detector-defined difference
\[\Delta J_D=\frac{\Phi_D^{(2)}-\Phi_D^{(1)}}{2\pi}\]
A photon is not assigned proper-time JIF. Emission, transfer, interaction-node and detector contributions are compared at a common detection event.
Interpretation guardrail: JIF is neither a force acting on light nor evidence that photons carry a proper clock. The detector reference and every transfer contribution must be declared.

What the four JIF repositories actually establish
This panel is the reading key for the linked repositories. The canonical foundation defines counted phase; the local sanity report checks dimensions; the forward lab adds target-blind transport and scoring. JIF is a bookkeeping layer for phase; SSZ supplies one possible D(r). None of those roles may be silently substituted for another.
Canonical phase chain
\[
\Xi(r)\longrightarrow D_{\rm SSZ}(r)=\frac{1}{1+\Xi(r)}
\longrightarrow d\tau=D_{\rm SSZ}\,dt
\longrightarrow d\Phi=2\pi f_0d\tau
\longrightarrow dJ=\frac{d\Phi}{2\pi}
\]
Meaning: geometry sets the rate and phase counting records the rate. For an ideal timelike oscillator, \(J\) is dimensionless and \(dJ/dt\) has frequency units. Moving observers require their complete worldline in the metric; the static shortcut is not universal.
Evidence boundary: the core repository's unit, invariance and evidence-ledger checks establish implementation consistency. They do not turn a unit-test count into independent experiments or prove global SSZ dynamics.
Detector phase, not photon proper time
\[
\Phi_D^{(a)}=\Phi_E^{(a)}+\Phi_{\rm transfer}^{(a)}
+\Phi_{\rm nodes}^{(a)}+\Phi_{\rm detector}^{(a)},
\qquad
\Delta J_D=\frac{\Phi_D^{(2)}-\Phi_D^{(1)}}{2\pi}
\]
Meaning: compare two complete contributions at one declared detector event. A null generator is not assigned a proper-time clock; an optical path model must state its slicing, frequency, medium and endpoints.
Forward-lab boundary: the forward repository keeps ray tracing, instrument nuisance parameters, target locking and scoring separate. Thin-shell images, supplied transfer coefficients and synthetic signals remain controlled research stages, not empirical SSZ confirmation.
Reviewer route:
canonical foundation,
local math sanity report,
forward audit.
Read them in that order and keep definitions, dimensional checks, transfer modelling and empirical scoring as separate evidence classes.

Counted-phase laboratory
Change normalized radius, proper frequency and coordinate duration. The gold phasor accumulates at the SSZ rate \(f_0D(r)\); the blue reference uses \(f_0\). Animation advances the selected coordinate duration without changing the model.

Gold: local massive-system phase. Blue: infinity reference. The trail is a visual phase history, not measured data.
Detector-centred bookkeeping
Build a transparent phase ledger
Compose explicitly supplied phase-cycle contributions. The example is deliberately algebraic: it demonstrates accounting and phase wrapping, not a physical fit.

Each coloured segment remains individually visible. The final phasor is the wrapped sum; cycle slips and unknown terms cannot be inferred away.
Anti-circular workflow
Prediction before target access
The public forward repositories keep model construction, sealing and scoring as separate operations.

No back-solving
A target radio lag cannot supply missing material, recoupling, emission or detector parameters.
Fail closed
Incomplete physical closure produces an explicit open or no-onset status, not a fabricated point prediction.
Separate evidence classes
Identities, software regressions, synthetic diagnostics and empirical comparisons retain different labels.

How to read JIF
This page separates the declared definition, its computation or visualisation, the evidence supporting it, and the conclusions that remain outside its scope.
Start with the formula or control, identify its domain and inputs, then follow the linked implementation and evidence record.
A passing identity, numerical limit, plot or comparison supports only the stated relation under its recorded assumptions and provenance.
It is not automatically an independent experiment, a complete physical theory, or a proof beyond the explicit claim boundary.
Foundational synthesis
Definitions, evidence and limitations stay linked
The portal keeps current canonical locks above historical descriptions and keeps software verification separate from empirical confirmation.
Canonical source
Use the current P0, JIF or mathematical lock for the formula and domain shown on this page.
Evidence class
Read tests, convergence, reference compatibility, dataset-conditioned comparisons and independent replication as different evidence classes.
Boundary
Every result retains its assumptions, limits and explicit non-claim so a visual or passing assertion is not over-promoted.
