## Cross-Domain Questions
When a question spans multiple domains, consult `docs/DOMAINS.md` — the definitive ownership map assigning every public CesiumJS class, function, and enum to exactly one skill.
## Runtime Verification
Chrome DevTools MCP is available for browser-based iteration: console error checking, network inspection, screenshots, and Lighthouse audits.
