Both bundled QA scripts pass for real (89/89 evidence URLs cross-referenced into the source-index matrix, all 22 guides have the 7 required sections), and the authorization guide surfaces a concrete production pitfall generic model knowledge usually misses - the FamilyControls entitlement must be registered separately for every extension target (DeviceActivity monitor, shield config, shield action), not just the main app, or Release builds silently fail while Debug works.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
