NOT RUN · held for evidence and human review

Working browser surface: Field guides — documentation — Inspect the guide and persist local checkpoints. This route is local-only; provider, credential, database, customer, publication, deployment, and production effects remain held.

Entry evidence and required records

Before the procedure starts, an operator must identify the source, owner, scope, and required records below. Missing evidence holds the guide.

• Source record field-guide:apple-capability-index
• Capability opportunity records
• Evidence and source-locator records
• Platform constraint records
• Review or approval record
• Deadline/to-do records for unresolved verification

Intended operators and ownership

• Tim
• Apple platform discovery agents
• Swift and SwiftUI implementation agents
• App Intents and Spotlight agents
• Cross-device product family planners
• Native capability reviewers

Being listed as an intended operator does not grant execution or publication authority.

Conditions that hold the guide before entry

• Confusing a named Apple native surface with an implemented or connected feature.
• Claiming App Intents, Spotlight, SwiftUI, cross-device behavior, deployment, publication, or qualification without source-bound evidence.
• Assigning canonical record ownership to PointGuard instead of the specialist app.
• Treating prototype or indexed local routes as production applications or authoritative databases.
• Inventing provider, credential, customer, or external calendar effects.
• Losing provenance, source locators, hashes, or revision history when consolidating evidence.
• Creating keyword-only documentation routes with no distinct useful content.
• Using inaccessible controls, unlabeled fields, color-only status, or interaction patterns that cannot be keyboard, assistive-technology, or reduced-motion reviewed.
• Allowing overdue or incomplete qualification tasks to appear complete.
• Exposing private work through public documentation or search partitions.
