        creates a definition without a draft when the request carries no
        expression
      - owns a definition made without an owner by the tenant
      - saves the expression as draft version 1 with its summary and no problems
      - records the draft’s dependencies
      - saves a draft with a problem and answers the problem
      - records the create in the audit trail
      - refuses a key the tenant already uses
      - makes the first draft of a bare definition version 1
      - 'replaces the draft in place on the next save, moving its version'
      - >-
        saves an expression the grammar refuses, with its problems and the fixed
        summary
      - records no dependency for an expression the grammar refuses
      - >-
        refuses a save at a draft version that is no longer current, and leaves
        the draft as it was
      - refuses a draft of an archived definition
      - 'refuses a definition the tenant does not have, 404'
      - answers the problems and the summary and leaves the draft as it was
      - changes the name at the version read and records it
      - >-
        refuses to promote a private definition without the publish permission,
        403
      - promotes a private definition for a caller who may publish
      - >-
        copies the published rule as the copy’s draft by default, with a note
        naming the source
      - >-
        copies the definition’s own fields, named as a copy and owned by the
        tenant
      - 'copies the draft when asked, under the name given'
      - refuses to copy a published rule from a definition never published

# Eligibility authoring checks

## Verification Boundary

This suite checks the module through real local service and database code at the entry points used by its test cases.

## What This Suite Proves

The mapped scenarios identify the capability and feature checkpoints this file exercises. The source test titles preserve the assertion-level evidence.

## What It Does Not Prove

Registration supplies no execution result or conformance decision. Checks beyond the file’s reachable assertions remain unverified, including production configuration.

## Real Dependencies and Test Doubles

The suite uses local integration fixtures. Signing, caches, provider responses or outbound delivery may be supplied by fixtures where the source declares a substitution. The source imports and suite header identify the exact dependencies.

## Must Not Be Doubled

The module behavior under assertion, transaction boundary and database constraint being checked remain real. Fixture setup cannot stand in for the asserted write or refusal.
