Time is modeled in MMA-DMF as local causal relaxation of an active, memory-bearing vacuum. Clock rates are local screened or unscreened vacuum-response rates. Einstein and general-relativistic timing and geometric observables are recovered as dense screened Einstein-limit projections rather than discarded. The temporal formulation is continuous with prior MMA-DMF relativity, gravitoelectromagnetism, and high-energy manuscripts 1, 2, 3. The present manuscript synthesizes that temporal sector by stating the ontology of time, giving the equation spine, organizing completed convergence and bridge layers, and separating the remaining decisive external falsification gates from completed formulation. Completed fixed-rule analyses and public-data convergence/bridge layers include Bell/NIST CH-Eberhard closure, a derived CHSH bridge, high-energy FRB/magnetar/NASA Archives/NuSTAR/IXPE timing sector, GNOME public source products, Voyager LECP/PDS boundary context, Technion/topological phase dynamics, GNSS source products, HETDEX/Lyα bridge, and mathematical consistency of the stated equations. The remaining open items are not missing theory support. They are decisive external falsification gates: NASA/Voyager DSN operational or radiometric residual records and GNOME Science Run 2 station-level timing streams. The missing NASA/Voyager and GNOME records are not required to formulate the MMA-DMF temporal ontology; they are required only for independent external falsification of the strongest boundary-timing predictions.
