 # Honest capability statement
 
-This MVP ships **no external engine adapters** (no Search Console API client,
-no ChatGPT/Perplexity automation). Measurement commands therefore operate on
-*operator-supplied observations*, validated against the data contracts, plus
-registry-side integrity checks (MEAS-001/002/003). Do not imply otherwise.
+Citable ships Google URL Inspection, CrUX field collection, normalized owner
+imports, and a disclosed custom citation-adapter protocol. It does not claim
+Bing AI Performance automation or equivalence between an API adapter and a
+consumer answer product. Preserve collector and product mode on every result.
+
+# implemented metric and objective workflow
+
+`citable metrics import --provider <name> --input <csv|json>` validates every
+row against a declared entry in `metrics.yaml` and writes immutable metric
+observations. `citable objectives init --input <json|yaml>` is dry-run by
+default; `--write` adds the validated objective with registry history.
+`citable objectives validate` checks contracts and metric references.
+`citable evaluate [objective-id]` compares independent baseline and evaluation
+windows, deduplicates repeated evidence, and reports each metric and guardrail
+separately. Insufficient data is `inconclusive`, never zero. Results describe
+temporal association and do not establish causation.
+
+Metrics, objectives, interventions, and connection state are optional. The
+absence of provider credentials is `not_configured`, not a finding and not
+evidence of zero activity. Credentials must never enter registries or evidence
+packages.

+# Observe, apply, and monitor
+
+## Collection modes
+
+- `observe render --target <URL>` uses optional Playwright. Browser evidence is
+  not search-index evidence.
+- `observe index --input <JSON>` imports owner exports. With `--target`,
+  `--site-url`, and `GSC_ACCESS_TOKEN`, it calls Google URL Inspection, which
+  reports the indexed version rather than performing a live indexability test.
+- `observe citations --input <JSON>` imports complete controlled observations.
+  With `--endpoint`, the input is a versioned prompt corpus and each prompt runs
+  1-20 times (default 3) through the disclosed adapter protocol. An API is not
+  presumed equivalent to a provider's consumer search experience.
+- `observe logs --input <JSON>` imports server/CDN records. User-agent matches
+  without IP verification remain low confidence.
+- `observe passages|consensus --target <dir|URL>` performs static extraction.
+- `observe performance` imports evidence or calls CrUX with `CRUX_API_KEY`.
+- `observe corroboration --input <JSON>` records observable external mentions;
+  controlled or unverified sources do not become authority claims.
+
+## Guarded remediation
+
+`apply --input remediation-spec.json` is a dry run. Every operation binds to an
+existing audit run and finding IDs, stays inside repository source, names a
+reviewer, matches the exact file hash, and identifies exactly one source string.
+`--write` applies only after all operations validate. Build, tests, semantic
+review, re-audit, and snapshot comparison remain mandatory afterward.
+
+## Monitoring
+
+`monitor [runA runB]` reports state changes, missing observations, index loss,
+canonical disagreement, and citation-presence changes. Alerts are evidence
+changes, not causal explanations or ranking conclusions. Schedule it in CI at
+the cadence defined by lifecycle and experiment records.
