+# Static live-register wiring
+
+A realization may consume selected words of a larger faithful environment without executing
+any computation. The equality of encoded inputs is explicit, and the register selection is
+fixed before runtime. This supplies layout arguments and query replies to existing method
+certificates while keeping other live words framed.
+
+## Main results
+
+* `Realizes.reindex`: pull a certificate back along a fixed register-index map.
