Problem
The 2026-08-21 USPTO and WIPO searches remain unresolved. The record supports qualified OSS repository use, not trademark clearance.
Scope
Preserve the naming evidence and obtain a dated, attestable qualified trademark review before commercial launch, filing, or broader distribution. The reviewer must be qualified trademark counsel.
Non-goals
This issue is non-blocking for the current open-source mission and does not declare the name unusable unless new evidence establishes that.
Acceptance
Attach dated qualified review covering relevant jurisdictions, classes, similar marks, and a reasoned disposition.
Validation
Reconcile policy/naming-clearance.json and public source links; record reviewer identity, scope, date, and conclusion.
Dependencies
policy/naming-clearance.json and RES-STUDY-NAMING-001.
Risk
Residual trademark risk is high for commercial launch or filing; current qualified OSS use remains conditionally approved.
Rollout
Reopen before any trigger; do not close without attestable evidence.
Observability
Weekly automation updates this one marker-owned issue.
Documentation
Update the naming record and public research explanation.
Compatibility
No protocol compatibility impact.
Generated artifacts
No generated artifact is changed by issue automation.
Agent authorship
Automation maintains the record; @enoreyes owns disposition.
