Response items mapped to the pinned Trace Learn skill graph. Multi-skill questions split their weight between tags.

Classification coverage: 100% across 58 classified response items from 58 detected. Ratios describe classified items only, so any uncovered detected items are not silently treated as another skill. This profile is automated and is not represented as independent human review. Confirmed, provisional taxonomy, and provisional analysis labels show which claims can safely contribute to trend evidence.
