 Classic grids and common variants share one bounded puzzle model: irregular
-regions, diagonals, Killer cages, thermometers, arrows, Kropki and XV clues,
-inequalities, renban lines, palindromes, anti-knight, anti-king and
-non-consecutive rules. Import accepts compact grid strings, this project's JSON
-format, share fragments, and the common f-puzzles fields supported by the
-model. Unknown constraints are reported rather than silently discarded.

+Generation supports only size/variant combinations which pass the bounded

+the displayed 0–100 result is calculated afterwards from logical techniques,
+clue load and reproducible exact-search evidence. A timeout or node limit is
+reported as unknown and never promoted to a uniqueness or difficulty claim.
