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.

Result

NOT RUN

Disposition

HELD

Reviewer

Not recorded

Receipt

Not recorded

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.

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 page identifies the guide as proposed and states that provider, credential, database, customer, publication, and production effects are held.
• Each documentation route has a distinct purpose and contains content not duplicated from the overview or other routes.
• The steps page includes ordered actions, record ownership, pause conditions, escalation, evidence capture, and handoff requirements.
• The tools page distinguishes interfaces, records, and the optional verified instrument; it does not claim any native surface is a connected web feature.
• The forms page contains implementable fields for scope, risk, provenance, deadlines, approvals, and qualification.
• The examples page uses clearly labelled illustrative scenarios and includes at least one failure or held state.
• The qualification page separates evidence-backed observations from assumptions and does not certify deployment, security posture, provider connection, or customer indexing.
• The related-jobs page links Security engineering, Architecture and implementation, SRE and incident command, Fleet operations, and Receipt-backed handoffs with distinct descriptions.
• A submitted record preserves canonical ID, origin, source locator, source SHA-256 when present, provenance, revision, lifecycle, tags, links, attachments, and record revisions.
• Keyboard navigation, visible focus, labelled form controls, non-color-only lifecycle states, readable error messages, and screen-reader-compatible status text are present.
• Invalid or incomplete submissions identify missing owner, scope, deadline decision, evidence, or approval fields and do not qualify the work.
• A held decision preserves the reason, open questions, next review date, and receipt rather than presenting completion.

Negative and held-state tests

• A named native surface may be mistaken for a connected production security system.
• Local notes or file references may be mistaken for authoritative evidence, protected storage, or customer data custody.
• Checksum verification can confirm a supplied digest comparison but cannot prove provenance, trustworthiness, authorization, or absence of compromise.
• A qualified documentation proposal may be misread as an implemented control, incident resolution, deployment, or compliance certification.
• Security-sensitive details may be overexposed if visibility, attachments, and record links are not reviewed before handoff.
• Deadline and agenda records may be mistaken for external calendar writes or operational commitments.
• Agent receipts may be incomplete, stale, or outside the agent's declared authority; human review is required.
• Accessibility failures can hide held states, errors, or approval requirements from some reviewers.

Qualification claim boundary

Potentially allowed only after the stated evidence

• This is a proposed source-backed field-guide structure for security-related planning and handoffs.
• The guide organizes security engineering, architecture and implementation, SRE and incident command, fleet operations, and receipt-backed handoffs.
• The documented workflow requires provenance, deadlines, failure states, human review, and preserved receipts.
• The listed local Notebook, PointGuard, and verified instrument surfaces are intended as bounded planning and inspection aids.

Still held

• No claim of deployment, production readiness, security certification, incident resolution, or operational effectiveness.
• No claim of provider, credential, database, customer, publication, or external calendar connection.
• No claim that local records are the authoritative security system of record.
• No claim that an agent performed external actions, sent messages, changed infrastructure, or completed a handoff.
• No claim that checksum verification establishes authenticity, integrity beyond the supplied comparison, or customer-safe storage.
• No claim of customer indexing, public publication, or qualification until a separately reviewed implementation record exists.
