Chapter 05 · Syphio Runtime
Findings
A Finding is a reviewable Runtime result, not a detached warning or an automatic code change.
Chapter outcome
You will know how to identify, prioritize and inspect a Finding without confusing severity with certainty.
Required anatomy
A Finding carries the information needed to locate and review it.
- Stable Finding identity
- Rule ID and rule version
- Severity and confidence
- Affected file, line and source excerpt
- Evidence, Explain and Validation
- Known limitations
- Limited Fix Preview availability
Severity
Severity communicates the technical impact or urgency defined by the matched rule. It helps order review; it does not express confidence.
Confidence
Confidence communicates how strongly the available Evidence supports this result. A high-severity Finding can still require careful contextual review.
Review, do not infer
Use the exact source, rule and Evidence in the report. Do not infer live-store impact that the Validation limitations explicitly exclude.
