Explore configurations

A configuration selects one value from every participating dimension. The explorer stores only combinations worth inspection; the complete Cartesian product remains virtual. Search, sort, filter, inspect, compare, duplicate, modify, reject, restore, or promote without losing lineage.

Local generation uses direct mixed-radix indexing, so a page can start at a known offset without creating earlier combinations. Every page is bounded. Each configuration is reevaluated against the current fingerprint of dimensions, confirmed compatibility judgments, and constraints.

Inspect exactly why a configuration is infeasible: the responsible pair assessments, violated hard rules, advisory rules, and provisional AI suggestions are separate lists. Rejection is a human workflow status and can be restored. Duplicate before exploring a nearby variant. Comparison uses normalized Hamming distance over shared dimensions; it describes structural difference, not strategic value.
