mutation · in the family Inventory operations
What it does
Create a new stock count — checking real shelves against the books at your organization.
CREATE a Count: the SELECTOR + countType + recountOf BIRTH-FIXED; the LF scoped + ACTIVE (STRICT birth); selector members scoped to that LF STATUS-FREE (counting an inactive zone/bin is legitimate — heal); recountOf must resolve to a POSTED count at the SAME LF; the org attribution derives from the live spine and stamps IMMUTABLE. Lines land at START.

Returns
Count Count! — A stock count: RECORDED stock vs PHYSICALLY-PRESENT stock at ONE LF, posting count_correct variance DELTAS (never absolute sets). Counts count ON_HAND presence only (condition rides reclass). posted is IMMUTABLE non-doomed history (recount = a NEW linked count); cancelled is the ONE doomed terminal (lists filter it). BLIND-BY-SHAPE while counting: line reads omit snapshot/expected/variance.
