# ADR-0003 No LLM Numeric Generation

## Context

LLM-generated prices, quantities, and thresholds caused authority collisions and provenance loss.

## Decision

LLM outputs must be copy-only. All numeric values must come from harness or canonical artifacts.

## Consequence

Prompt and report contracts must render numbers only when a source artifact already provides them.

## Rollback

There is no rollback path that reintroduces free-form numeric generation. That would violate the operating contract.
