The paper introduces CER, a use-case-level diagnostic for AI residual risk transfer: C (control boundary) asks whether the system had an enforceable operating envelope; E (evidence reconstruction) asks whether the system state and causal chain can be reconstructed from retained artifacts; R (insurance response) asks whether the reconstructed loss is insured (coverage available and placed, and proof needed to support claim recovery).

The relevant question for such losses is not only what loss occurred, but what the system was allowed to do, what it actually did, and whether that reconstructed loss can support insurance claim recovery.
