What we know, and how current it is.
We only state what traces to a saved primary source. Here is exactly what is in the knowledge base, its currency, and how much of each pathway we have structured.

Coverage
85 of 85 Schedule 2 Parts in the compilation are structured — their grant criteria ingested and verbatim-verified (the total of 85 is machine-derived, not hard-coded). Schedule 2 spans two volumes of the compilation and both are parsed, so this is whole-schedule coverage. The shared instruments (Schedule 6D points, LIN 25/016 English, LIN 19/051 occupation lists) are ingested once and cited by the criteria that reference them. Indicative points are computed end-to-end for the General Skilled Migration subclasses (189/190/491); other pathways return their cited criteria for a professional to apply.
