Review redirects before a website migration
Native input preparation

Editorial analysis contract, never a claim about vendor-native export headers
Existing examples/checklists are optional supporting scaffolds unless explicitly mapped below. Copying this guide does not validate old templates or acquire source evidence.

These are blank review scaffolds. Fill them only from source evidence acquired through START-HERE.txt. Original examples belong to the original prompt and do not test this native route. A source bundle requires actual approved evidence and has no blank substitute.

BEFORE USING AN AI TOOL
- Existing authorized access to the named product and in-scope records; actual tenant, plan, permissions and menu version must be checked.
- Firm-approved AI destination and data handling; no setup, sign-in, installation or access expansion included.

compatibilityNotes: - Native route reviews a supplied proposed map and observed behavior. It does not itself generate embedding matches. Existing semantic-matches.csv is optional candidate evidence; the earlier embedding setup is not a requirement for this bounded map-review route.
- No blind filename renaming: old-pages/new-pages must be schema-mapped, semantic matches must become explicitly reviewed proposals, and observed-redirects.csv is a distinct new input.
- Legacy launch-review-checklist.txt remains an optional implementation checklist; it does not establish tested redirects or deployment approval.
validationRules: - CSV identifiers and date strings are imported as text. Preserve leading zeros and exact keys. Do not execute formulas from source values.
- Blank templates are deliberately incomplete. Unknown is not zero, false, missing-not-found or a passing review.
- Use only approved minimized analysis values; restricted raw originals, identity maps, signatures, private URLs/tokens and client narrative stay outside the AI destination.
- A native file may retain its actual header names if manifest.txt supplies a reviewer-verified one-to-one map to this contract. Do not blindly rename files/headers.

ACTUAL SOURCE REQUIREMENTS
approved-page-text/
Actual old/new content needed for semantic, jurisdiction, office and purpose review
Source-grounded claims are blocked without the source; provide a gap list only.
Actual evidence required. This kit does not include a placeholder that counts as evidence.

FINAL CHECK
Every stated input is loaded or pasted into the analysis tool; IDs, scope and date basis are verified; missing facts stay unknown. Native exports keep their original headers until an explicit, reviewed field map is recorded. Account behavior and end-to-end execution were not tested.
