# Deprecations and retired claims

## Product naming

| Deprecated framing | Current truth |
|---|---|
| Peer “AI employees” / vertical agents as flagship products | Fleet **templates** only; no separate runtimes |
| Cortex / Cortex Ultra as a product | **Ethen Auto** capability (internal routing) |
| Browser Agent as flagship | **Computer Use** shared capability |
| Local Models as separate company surface | Local **runtimes** under Models / settings |
| Unconditional “Live” badges on all products | Lifecycle from portfolio registry only |

## Frozen / unavailable

Studio generation and other frozen surfaces remain exportable where implemented but **must not** be documented as Live launch products. See portfolio `lifecycle: unavailable` entries.

## Documentation claims that are retired

- “Private Alpha” as the sole Gateway maturity label when public beta certification evidence exists for Gateway — use **public beta** with known limits.
- Any claim that **payment collection** is live-certified, production-ready, or generally available in this release.
- Any claim that **Gate K** is complete; Gate K remains BLOCKED until an independent reviewer attests.

## Compatibility redirects

Legacy routes may redirect via portfolio consolidation. Prefer canonical routes from the registry (`canonicalRoute` fields) in new documentation.
