## Category

## Tags

## When to Use
Audit models using layer-wise pyramid KV allocations to ensure total allocated tokens stay within bounds.

## Operational Limitations
Verifies layer budget sums against hardware capacity limits; does not compute per-layer attention.

## Verification Script
Run the deterministic verification checker:
```bash
python3 scripts/check.py examples/synthetic.json
```
Exit codes:
- `0`: Check passed and thresholds satisfied.
- `1`: Threshold breach or operational violation detected.
- `2`: Schema error or invalid usage.
