-type candidate() ::
          #{format := binary(),
            exact := boolean(),
            local_only := [local_reason()],
            numeric_range => {0, 9007199254740991}}.
```

Native necessary condition. format is a rendered tmux expression; exact means the translation covers the whole predicate for one observed state. A true fallback can admit every row. numeric_range describes qualified integer conversion, and is omitted for disabled/oversized fallback plans.
