Case-study standard

Every refreshed case study uses the same accountable structure:

  1. Problem — the operational need, without inflated stakes.
  2. Built — the system, workflow, or experiment that exists.
  3. Evidence — public-safe proof that supports the description.
  4. Outcome — the result without invented metrics.
  5. Boundaries — what stayed private, manual, or human-approved.
