 /**
- * Eager, serialisable, React-free: this is imported for every demo on every
- * page. Everything expensive is behind `demo.tsx`.
- *
- * `status` starts as `spec`: `check-demos` rule 7 refuses `live` until the
- * capture stage has put recorded runs for this slug in the traces manifest.
- * The ship stage flips it. Nothing else here changes at that point.
+ * `status` is `live`: this environment ships with an interactive mode, a
+ * probe-gated reward, captured rollouts and a verifier. `check-demos` rule 7
+ * is what makes that word cost something — it refuses `live` for a demo with
+ * no runs in the manifest — so flipping it is a claim the gate checks, not a
+ * label.
