Scope and limitations
- The inventory and organizations are fictional teaching examples.
- The included checker validates this small exercise contract; it is not a general JSON Schema implementation.
- No production API, database migration or real inventory update is performed.
- Schema inference cannot discover business meaning or prove compatibility with an undocumented consumer.
