Preconditions are kind of a poka-yoke: make it as difficult as possible to pass bad data or call at the wrong time. Yes, at that level of abstraction, contracts are certainly about jidoka.

( http://archive.eiffel.com/doc/manuals/technology/contract/ ) For example, all warp and weave threads must be tight before advancing. I think a precondition is the software equivalent of jidoka.

Having said that, I'm not sure what would be. That might be an example but I’m not sure that’s the “best” example. Having said that, I’m not sure what would be.
