A Node URL-query contract (ohm↔norm conversion that preserves Z, visible R/X beating hidden z_r/z_i, illegal smith_state parse, and Basic/Match/Analyze tier) is exercised as properties; it is not a live browser session. CVP-XCAL-01 compares this IUT to electrical.rf.gamma_z (Γ↔z), electrical.rf.vswr (|Γ|→VSWR/RL), and electrical.rf.lc_match on the overlapping real-RL L-section; complex-z auto-match vs LC Match is N/A because LC Match encodes real RL↔Z0 only. Verification revision 2026-09-07.p14 distinguishes this CVP batch from earlier 1.6.3 manifests and from the legacy 21-test Evidence JSON. Live CSS-resized SVG, grid/path d= markup, stability/gain/noise overlay drawing, drag/hover, history, bilateral MAG/MSG, 3 dB bandwidth, and interactive workspace features are outside this verification scope."
