 - Acceptance and offline validation: M35 acceptance posture, Training Case acceptance manifest, focused milestone test suites, offline checks, and public validation.
 - Public API and privacy contracts: API contract coverage, error contract coverage, and privacy contract coverage keep public routes audited while public responses scrub private solution material and internal solution details.
 - Package smoke and offline registry: offline package smoke covers local import/export with public package, public export, and public output flows; broader offline checks register `training_case_package`.
