Payment and Clearing Node Composition

Handles inbound instruction normalization, validation, and dispatch toward commitment and settlement services.

Supports multiple payment types while preserving a common internal instruction schema.

Collects obligations, computes multilateral net positions, and emits settlement legs for execution windows.

Batch controls define cycle cadence, participation windows, and reconciliation thresholds.

Every cycle must maintain conservation proofs where aggregate net across participants equals zero before settlement release.

Violation paths stop progression and surface exception workflows for operator intervention.
