Open questions
What CORA needs the CSX team to confirm before the model can be trusted.
CSX was reverse-engineered from the beamline's own bluesky profile collection (NSLS2/csx-profile-collection ), so the control handles in the Inventory are the beamline's real PVs, read from the startup/csx1 files rather than confirmed by staff. Each row below is a fact the beamline team owns, not a CORA modelling choice (those are on Model , including the GratingMonochromator graduation). It is a delete-on-answer queue. Priorities are Blocks-build, Blocks-go-live, and Nice-to-have.
