# Policy Determinism Fixtures Prep — PREP-POLICY-AOC-19-004-DEPENDENT-ON-19-003-DA

Status: Draft (2025-11-20)
Owners: Policy Guild · QA Guild
Scope: Define data shape and determinism fixtures after normalized-field decisions (19-003).

## Dependencies
- Field removal list from 19-003.
- Deterministic ordering/canonical JSON rules.

## Plan
- Prepare fixtures showing deterministic ordering and absence of removed fields.
- Add test harness notes for `StellaOps.Policy` libraries to validate canonical JSON and stable sorting.

## Acceptance
- Fixtures placed under `docs/modules/policy/samples/policy-determinism-fixtures@draft.json`.
- Update `docs/modules/policy/design/policy-determinism-tests.md` with expectations.

## Handoff
Use this prep doc for PREP-POLICY-AOC-19-004-DEPENDENT-ON-19-003-DA. Update once field removal list is frozen; then mark task DONE and unblock implementation tests.
