# Sample case authoring

Examples exist so a buyer can inspect the shape before requesting work.

## Required labels

- Labelled sample or illustration
- Not a live customer artifact
- Not a pentest, certification, or proof the system is secure

## Workflow

1. Pick one situation (launch, questionnaire, exposure, access change).
2. Write scope, evidence references, and limits.
3. Keep identifiers synthetic.
4. Link Verify a receipt or Check a Skill where a reader can actually try it.
5. Restate the example boundary at the foot of the page.

## Guardrails

- Do not reuse real customer names, hosts, or hashes.
- Do not hide the limitation in a footnote the reader will miss.
- Do not imply the sample was independently re-verified in production.

## Outputs

- sample page copy
- synthetic artifacts
- example boundary sentence
