How the status is set

Missing: section offer_or_admission is absent or empty, or holds only placeholder text such as TBD or TBC.
Review: the section has fewer than 60 words, or a listed term does not appear (case-insensitive substring match, with any run of spaces and line breaks read as one space; a term shown with a pattern counts only where the pattern matches, so that a look-alike word does not stand in for it).
In a numbered-field XHTML draft, Review also follows when a field of the section holds only a placeholder such as TBD; the finding names the field by its number and, in English, by the template's name where the linter has one for that field.
Pass: none of the above. A pass means the check matched, nothing more.

ReviewThin section

Every listed term appears, but the section is shorter than 60 words.

  "title": "Synthetic rule example",
  "type": "other",
  "sections": {
    "offer_or_admission": "offer price subscription target court"
  }
}

PassSection that matches

This text passes and shows what the check measures: listed terms and length. It is not model disclosure wording and does not meet MiCAR.

{
  "title": "Synthetic rule example",
  "type": "other",
  "sections": {
    "offer_or_admission": "Synthetic example naming offer, price, subscription, target, court. This synthetic sentence only adds length and states no fact about any issuer or token.

Limitations

Reads one section key, offer_or_admission. Text elsewhere in the draft is not considered.
Matches words and counts length. It does not test accuracy, consistency with other sections or the point-level items of the cited Part.
Status and severity are fixed by the rule. A draft cannot waive or downgrade them.
