ImplementedLast verified: 2026-10-03Product version: Platform V3Draft translation

English localization is preserved as a draft. It uses the same claim IDs and status model as the Russian source, but remains noindex until editorial review.

The glossary establishes one clear language for interface, Support and documentation. Internal technical names may differ, but user meaning must stay stable.

The core rule is that one configuration, one initial state and one ordered sequence of accepted facts must produce one next state.
