We develop a causal optimizer interaction calculus that separates pathwise realization, Möbius decomposition, and experimental identification. Under a fixed innovation coupling, every finite-horizon innovation-driven optimizer admitsa canonical behaviorally minimal pathwise realization. Over any lower-finite intervention poset, its expected response has unique pure effects; for every finite support and design, an incidence operator gives the complete observational gauge, exact identifiability, sharp quotient stability, held-out predictions, and exact noiseless configuration complexity. The companion P1 paper proves that smooth hidden relaxation gives reduced-value curvature −G∗ H −1G and that Boolean contrasts integrate it. Taking this as a structural input, we prove an observable-readout transfer theorem: arbitrary smooth update or trace readouts inherit an explicit five-term interaction through first and second hidden responses, with no universal sign beyond the reduced-value case. A third theorem develops Gaussian quotient minimax risk, exact confidence sets and tests, misspecification decomposition, certified decisions, and optimal replication. A controlled real-data experiment closes the reduced-value chain on a 65-dimensional strongly convex logistic model. Boolean effects and independent curvature integrals agree within 4.21 × 10 −11; nine unobserved continuous intensities agree within 8.88 × 10 −13; 100,000 Gaussian campaigns attain 0 .9497 ellipsoid coverage and 0 .9626 held-out power; and 4500 real-minibatch observations with 20,000 bootstrap draws reject order-two support with interval [0 .001839 , 0.004399] . Finite-response error decreases from  \n1.43 × 10 −2 to 5.55 × 10 −17 within its strong-convity bound. Neural trace audits provide complementary nonconvex response-class evidence. The paper contributes the causal, readout, and identifiable experimental layer while assigning the underlying Schur and path-space laws to P1 and P2 .  \n1 Introduction  \nAn optimizer is an intervention-dependent dynamical system. Its state may contain parameters, momentum, curvature estimates, preconditioners, schedules, clipping rules, random innovations, target transformations, and numerical state. A recorded parameter update is one projection of that extended dynamics. It generally admits many internal explanations: positive geometry may reproduce part of the update, while memory, operators, control, noise, or target changes reproduce the remainder.  \nThis ambiguity creates two distinct scientific questions. A response-class question asks whether an observed trace is close to the outputs generated by a declared family, such as bounded diagonal geometry. A mechanism question asks how the counterfactual response changes when a declared module is altered. Passive projection can reject a response class. Causal mechanism effects require interventions, instrumentation, or an observation structure with equivalent identifying power.  \nWe take the complete interventional response as the primitive object. A lower-finite poset (P , ⪯) indexes configurations, including Boolean sector masks, graded mechanism levels, and nested geometry budgets.  \nUnder a protocol that fixes initialization, data, horizon, response map, and noise coupling, each configuration a produces a finite-horizon response F (a) in a Hilbert space. The optimizer may be nonsmooth, stochastic, stateful, delayed, and history-dependent.  \nThree operations then have separate roles. Causal realization turns histories into a predictive state.
