<p>GuideCheck publishes a primary verifier for usability &mdash; never as the only authoritative verifier and never as a root of trust. It reports what it checked and what it did not. Guide files score up to Level 4 of 4; Level 5 is a separate runtime enforcement claim. Optional agent and expected-level fields help identify compatibility gaps without storing full submitted URLs, prompts, model responses, IP addresses, or stable visitor identifiers as product telemetry.</p>
