Existing files can be inspected and maintained through their legacy UI/MCP tools. Their separately stored Data file and model IDs must continue to resolve. Do not change keys/shapes merely to modernize naming and do not create new legacy files as a workaround.
Plan migration to typed Content as a separate, data-preserving workflow. Runtime verification is required before publishing migration instructions.
