**Editor Instructions:**  
- Use bullets and tables, never paragraphs, except for Problem Statement.  
- Each requirement must have a corresponding mapping to the spec.  
- Do not exceed section or line limits; AI and reviewers will reject oversize input.  
- No implementation details allowed—reference the spec for all "how".
