# Known Limitations

- **Early External Pilot**: This release is primarily intended to discover real-world friction.
- **SmartScreen Friction**: The unsigned / low-reputation Windows installer may trigger Windows SmartScreen.
- **Windows-Focused**: The current build is optimized for Windows 10/11 x64.
- **Repository Edge Cases**: Not every unusual Git repository configuration has been tested.
- **Availability vs. Configuration**: Provider configuration detection does not prove live provider availability.
- **Local vs. Cloud**: Local source presence does not equal an off-machine backup.
- **Scope of Continuity Evidence**: Continuity evidence is strictly scoped to what Reality Gate actually checked during the run.
- **Business Features**: Business/organization boundary features and entitlement gates are still under development and should not be considered the primary reason to test this pilot.
- **Port Discrepancy**: A minor bug exists where executing the backend manually defaults to a different port than the packaged application. This does not affect packaged pilot users.
- **IPv4 Loopback**: The backend binds strictly to 127.0.0.1, which may fail on strict IPv6-only localhost setups.
