+- `runtime-executable` — execute the specified command or script. Capture stdout/stderr as evidence. Record pass/fail based on exit code and output.
 - `live-runtime` — exercise the real runtime path. Start or connect to the app/service if needed, use browser/runtime/network checks, and verify observable behavior.
