Abstract

This preprint fixes canonical geometric data, field content, and normalization conventions for the TEBAC 9D/9D+ framework (WP0), and provides a degree-correct local anomaly inflow/descent package based on $\mathrm{CS}_5$ (WP1). It also formulates the global anomaly / extension-independence closure (AT3) as a precise bordism + APS-$\eta$ criterion with explicit acceptance conditions. Fixed choices in v1.0: $K_5 = S^1\times T^4$; defect theory = Standard Model (optionally with $N_R$); bulk gauge sector $G_{\text{bulk}} = G_{\text{SM}}\times U(1)_X$; normalized $\mathrm{CS}_5$ and $\widehat{ch}_3$ conventions. Status: WP0/WP1 are formalized in a referee-verifiable acceptance-test style; AT3 is stated as a closure criterion and checklist (not yet fully discharged). Next steps (planned in subsequent versions): discharge AT3 by evaluating the global phase on generators of $\Omega^{\mathrm{Spin}}_5(BG_{\text{bulk}})$, then produce flagship end-to-end predictions under the fixed conventions (WP3/WP4).
