# Worked fictional client-permission decision

SYNTHETIC SCENARIO. This is not consent, legal advice or a contract amendment.

Request: a software agency wants an AI explanation of a quantity-check failure in SYNTHETIC_CLIENT_PORTAL.
Material proposed: the original fictional client function and nearby context. No actual client function is included in this pack.
Recipient path: SYNTHETIC_AI_SERVICE in SYNTHETIC_WORKSPACE, then a fictional model provider. These are labels, not real services.
Authority in this exercise: only the fictional client contract owner may decide disclosure scope; the project manager cannot extend it.
Decision: original client code is not authorised for this use. Use only clean-example.py, independently written for the guide, with synthetic-cases.json.
Limits: no client names, algorithms, comments, surrounding files or production values may be added under this illustrative decision.
Recheck: any change to material, purpose, account or recipients requires a new authorised review.
Outcome: a useful general programming question can proceed with the independent synthetic example while the client-code request stays unresolved.
