## Interpretation

Public technical snapshot; not a guarantee of task completion. Private and authenticated workflows are outside this scan. Cite scanned_at and the canonical report URL; the URL serves the latest completed snapshot and can change after a rescan.

The official Waymark score is Discovery 20 / Access 30 / Usability 40 / Payments 10. N/A and scanner-error checks drop out of the denominator; they are not scored as failures. An observed agent journey is supporting evidence and does not change the numeric score.
