It reports deterministic planning arithmetic for the entered scope. It cannot prove export completeness, transfer eligibility, privacy compliance, provider compatibility, redirect availability, indexation, traffic preservation, demand, cash timing, accounting profit, or implementation success. Ready still requires current sources, authorization, private testing, monitoring, stop conditions, and restoration. Separate deterministic planning arithmetic from transfer completeness, authority, SEO outcome, demand, cash, and accounting. Checkpoint 1 in the migration interpretation memo records source and target channels, product scope, permitted-data boundary, catalog version, URL plan, integration register, currency, labor categories, loaded rate, nonlabor costs, owner, reviewer, authorization boundary, monitoring trigger, and restoration before interpretation.
For read structural block, keep catalog, cleanup, storefront, integration, URL, training, test, rate, app, setup, creative, other, overlap, lost contribution, capacity, retained-order contribution, forecast, threshold, and conflict in separate evidence fields.
