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.

This page defines proposed acceptance criteria for the docs_urls lane. It does not execute tests, establish compliance, qualify the subject, or authorize an effect.

Lane-specific instrument aids

No verified instrument is assigned to this qualification lane.

Outcome definitions

Verified
All stated evidence and acceptance requirements passed for the exact reviewed revision; this still does not authorize deployment or an external effect.
Failed
One or more deterministic acceptance requirements failed with an inspectable reason.
Needs review
Evidence or interpretation is incomplete, conflicting, or awaits an identified human reviewer.
Held
Authority, required evidence, safe execution conditions, or a principal gate is absent.

The current record remains NOT RUN / HELD. These definitions describe candidate outcomes only.

Proposed deterministic acceptance tests

Route-resolution and distinct-content checks apply only to the admitted canonical routes in this record. Held source-proposed extensions are non-resolving proposals and are excluded.

  • The overview route states that the guide is proposed and distinguishes observations from verified capability claims.
  • Each listed documentation route has a unique title, search intent, and substantive content; no route is a doorway or keyword variant.
  • The steps page presents an ordered workback with prerequisites, dependencies, failure states, and review points.
  • The tools page names only supplied native surfaces or the supplied source owner and does not claim connection or deployment.
  • The forms page includes scope, provenance, qualification, implementation, and publication fields with accessible labels and explicit required-state handling.
  • The examples page contains bounded hypothetical examples labelled as examples, not production evidence or customer results.
  • The qualification page provides separate states for verified, failed, needs review, and held; it never equates a named native surface with a connected web feature.
  • The related-jobs page links only to the five supplied related jobs and explains the distinct documentation value of each.
  • Private, prototype, indexed, and held boundaries are visible in record metadata and page copy.
  • A keyboard-only user can reach every form control, route link, status label, and failure message in logical order.
  • Validation prevents publication or qualification when required provenance, lifecycle, owner, or review fields are absent.
  • Acceptance checks preserve canonical IDs, source locators, revisions, lifecycle, and record ownership.
  • No page claims deployment, provider connection, credential use, database authority, customer indexing, publication, or native capability approval.

Negative and held-state tests

  • A native surface name may be mistaken for an implemented or connected web feature.
  • Apple platform behavior, availability, and APIs may vary; unsupported assumptions can become misleading documentation.
  • App Intents and Spotlight descriptions can imply system indexing or execution when only a design proposal exists.
  • Cross-device language can conceal device-specific constraints, synchronization assumptions, or unclear record ownership.
  • Liquid Glass styling can become visual-only guidance without an accessible interaction model or fallback states.
  • Prototype routes may be mistaken for production routes or public documentation.
  • Unverified examples may be read as customer evidence or deployment proof.
  • Missing provenance, revision, or source locators can make qualification irreproducible.
  • External sends, provider writes, uploads, protected storage, and database effects remain held by the observed contract.
  • Medical, financial, legal, safety, or production engineering decisions must not be inferred from this product guide.

Qualification claim boundary

Potentially allowed only after the stated evidence

  • This is a proposed field guide for documenting and qualifying Liquid Glass-related work.
  • The guide covers supplied related jobs: Swift and SwiftUI implementation, Apple platform discovery, App Intents and Spotlight, cross-device product families, and native capability qualification.
  • The guide can define crawlable documentation routes with distinct purposes and lifecycle labels.
  • The observed contract includes Notebook field-guide collections, source-labelled records, deadline fields, PointGuard context, and prototype or indexed app surfaces.
  • The supplied verified-instrument directory contains tools, although none is required for this guide.

Still held

  • Liquid Glass implementation is deployed or production-ready.
  • Any Apple platform, App Intents, Spotlight, or cross-device capability is connected, approved, indexed, or available to customers.
  • A provider, credential, database, customer record, publication system, or external service is connected.
  • The named agent Tim has execution authority beyond the supplied source ownership reference.
  • Any example represents measured production behavior, customer outcome, or completed qualification.
  • Any prototype or indexed app route is a live public web feature.
  • The guide provides authoritative Apple platform guidance without a verified source record for each claim.
