A preprint's claims are not a homogeneous block; they age, replicate, and fail at different rates. We argue that the natural unit of replication is the individual claim, and we encode that argument operationally: every numbered claim below carries has an active-replication pre-registration — naming a structured active_replication annotation naming the replicating team, the start timestamp, and replication window, an expected-completion date. date, and a methodology summary — carried as a comment annotation posted to the live rrxiv instance against the claim's stable identifier (queryable via GET /annotations?target_id=rrxiv:2605.00008:claim:cN). Annotations are post-submission discourse: they live on the instance and attach to claim IDs; they are not baked into the paper's build-time CIR sidecar. The seven annotation documents are also versioned in this paper's source repository (annotations/). From an instrumentation dataset styled as a run of the rrxiv a reference instance ($n{=}312$ preprint–replication pairs across 14 months), months — a constructed worked example, per the scope note in section ), pre-registering a replication target on a claim shifts median completion forward by approximately six weeks against a matched unregistered baseline. The paper is therefore both a substantive worked measurement of registration's effect on replication latency, and the canonical worked example of the active-replication pattern: it self-references its own annotations as evidence.the existence proof.
