Evidence before claims

Methodology

Detection, navigation and completion are different observations. We keep them separate.

Verification milestones

Detected
A dated source points to a candidate capability. No successful navigation is implied.
Reached
An executor reached a defined workflow milestone, but did not establish correct final submission.
Pre-submit verified
A reviewed adapter captured and blocked the exact final payload. This is not merchant acceptance or a live completion.
Sandbox completed
A documented authorized sandbox returned a success state. It is not a live-site result.
Live completed
A valid completion was observed with appropriate authority and provenance. It is not universal reliability.

Percentages and denominators

The objective success fraction uses started valid attempts whose outcomes were success, failure or blocked. Inconclusive and infrastructure-error counts appear separately. Under 10 attempts, evidence is preliminary and we show successes over attempts without a headline percentage. At 10 or more attempts, we show the rate and a 95% Wilson interval.

Freshness

Fresh means under 7 days, aging means 7 through 30 days, stale means over 30 days, and unknown means never actively tested. An older fallback never masquerades as current evidence.

Provenance and corrections

Independent tests, external benchmarks, merchant declarations and community submissions remain distinct. Payment cannot change rankings or suppress independent evidence. Reviewed public derivatives exclude credentials, signed URLs and private traces.
