Raw component / maximum, then weighted by the regulated profile (adoption 15, trust 25, project 10, ecosystem 10, domain 20, governance 15, docs 5). Trust and governance are computed from the evidence on this page (vendor-level rows at half credit); the other components come from the curated workbook, whose order is the rank. Unknown components count as 0 and are never imputed.

Unknowns to check (6)
Your lawful basis and DPIA for PHI and personal data the agent will touch
That the SOC 2 report period covers the components you will use; request the report under NDA
That the HIPAA BAA is offered for this product tier and region
Whether the ISO 27001 certificate scope names this service, or only the platform
Current FedRAMP status with the agency, if government use is intended
Whether the CSA STAR entry covers this product; Level 1 is a self-assessment, Level 2 a third-party attestation
Suggested restrictions for a pilot (0)

No restriction rule fired — review the unknowns above before relying on that.
