A deviation on a MUST fails the run and shows the requirement next to the actual response. Checks the suite cannot validate soundly are reported inconclusive or not-tested — never a silent pass. The full verdict semantics are on the grading rubric.

Run it against your store

The hosted check covers the read-only surface; the CLI and GitHub Action run the full suite, including this check when your store declares the capability it belongs to.
