# Built-in rule inventory

This is the release-review inventory for commit `9b76cb4` and its corrective
follow-up. It deliberately distinguishes directory metadata from execution:
there are **62 selectable metadata IDs**, comprising **32 confirmed-finding
checks**, **6 static-hint checks**, and **24 manual-review triggers**. The
first two kinds append `Finding` values; review triggers append `ReviewItem`
values. A review-only detailed JSON result has `assessment: "needs_review"`;
none of these counts is a count of WCAG criteria automatically passed.

Source-key locations are in `a11ytrace.mbt`: **C** = common traversal
`1965–2140`; **EA** = extended ARIA `2142–2235`; **ES** = extended structure
`2237–2294`; **ER** = extended review triggers `2296–2465`; **H** = helpers
`2503–2640`; **O** = original helpers `2712–3678`. Tests are named exactly as
they appear in `a11ytrace_test.mbt`; a test may cover more than one row.

The role-name rows are catalogued as confirmed-finding rules because a definite
missing author/static name produces a `Finding`; their SVG-only branch produces
a conservative `ReviewItem` under the same ID. This is an intentional
per-input outcome distinction, not an additional metadata ID.
