Validation Strategy

Compatibility packages are small, but they still need proof. Their trust comes from naming continuity, correct metadata, and clear routing to the canonical package, so validation has to check those exact surfaces.

Validation Focus

• import resolution
• packaging metadata correctness
• canonical target routing in docs and README files
• repository-wide evidence that migration is moving forward

Useful Checks

• repository-wide rg searches for legacy names
• package tests or smoke checks that confirm preserved imports still resolve
• release and metadata checks that keep canonical targets explicit

First Proof Check

• packages/compat-*
• compatibility package README.md files
• repository validation commands and search evidence
