Model

Product

Product: product = multiplicand × multiplier
Repeated addition — for non-negative integer multiplier: a × n = a + a + … + a (n times), n ∈ ℤ≥0
Commutative: a × b = b × a
Distributive: a × (b + c) = a×b + a×c

Solve modes: product · long

Inputs / Outputs

Canonical symbols for this capability. Agent schemas remain the contract.

Symbol	Quantity	Unit	Role
`a`	Multiplicand (decimal string or number)	—	input
`b`	Multiplier (decimal string or number)	—	input
`product`	—	—	output
`productStr`	—	—	output
`work`	—	—	output
`gridTruncated`	—	—	output
`warning`	—	—	output

Assumptions / Validity

Declared scope for this capability. Do not use it outside this domain.

Assumptions

Real decimal inputs parsed as exact decimal strings (integer mantissa × 10^−scale), not binary floating-point.
Product mode and Long multiplication mode use the same exact mantissa multiplication; Long adds partial-product steps.

Example

One numerical check. The calculator page holds worked steps and FAQ.

2552 × 64 = 163328

Numerical scope: Exact decimal-string identity (productStr) vs O2 mantissa×BigInt dual-checked against per-digit BigInt partials. Long vectors also require IUT work to contain those partials, or LONG_GRID_TRUNCATED at 25 digits. 48 significant digits per factor; 49-digit factors are rejected. This is not a whole-domain proof beyond the published vectors.

Call this capability

Human page, REST, and MCP share the same engine and calculation_version. Build verified hashes workspace artifacts only. After deploy, attest:production GETs canonical URLs twice — the public/cached view an Agent actually hits, and origin — including every /capabilities/{id} HTML page. Public Capability HTML version must match catalog before production attestation passes. Live Trust rows above fetch /.well-known/calculatorx-production-attestation.json and the output schema const. Build hashes: release integrity. That proves currently published page / engine / schema / evidence / MCP agree — not that a historical version is independently immutable. Reference Calculation Standard — Production surface contract 4/4.
