2. No client, partner, or personal names.
3. No internal URLs, tickets, or system names.

5. Numbers and dates are safe to publish.
6. Quotes are short and attributed.
7. `visibility` is `public` or `generalized`.

9. Safe for the AI-readable export (`/llms-full.txt`, `/md/`).
10. All related links point to public content.
