Discovered product capabilities (pending fixture test / edge incubation)
Recorded capability · Not yet scoredThese capabilities have been identified on the product but have not yet undergone fixed-fixture testing. When an emerging capability co-occurs across multiple products, it incubates a new task edge.
Tested task edges (with scores and native artifacts) are strictly separated from discovered untested capabilities (unscored).
Peer product comparison across shared task edges

Standard monthly is USD 21.95/month promotional (regular USD 24.99/month, 300 credits/month). The yearly promo banner displays only "7.66 USD per month" (3,000 credits/year) without printing the annual invoice total before login, so the annual total is marked unverified.
