4 terminology differences from the second opinion

Advisory only. These are normalized differences from the primary terminology receipt.

• webhook at ci/platform-matrix.json:357: selected only by the second-opinion lane as established.
• Pub/Sub at ci/platform-matrix.json:357: selected only by the second-opinion lane as established.
• Google Chat at ci/platform-matrix.json:357: selected only by the second-opinion lane as established.
• service-account at ci/platform-matrix.json:357: selected only by the second-opinion lane as established.

Second-opinion terminology and E2E selections are advisory. Live E2E does not run automatically for pull requests.

2 semantic terminology decisions

Terminology decisions are advisory. They affect the assessment only when a separate finding identifies concrete semantic impact.

• established — gateway-minted at docs/manage-sandboxes/set-up-google-chat.mdx:7: Keep the established term for gateway-created access tokens and distinguish it from service-account private-key custody.
• established — public webhook at docs/manage-sandboxes/add-channels-after-onboarding.mdx:52: Keep the controlled term and state the Hermes transport contrast.

E2E guidance

Advisory only. A maintainer can dispatch the default E2E suite for the commit under review.

Recommended E2E: None

Manual-only E2E: cloud-onboard
The manual PR workflow does not run these selectors for the commit under review. Run them from reviewed code on main.
