+CURABIS-TRIAGE-008 Obsolete/deprecated signature -> check Microsoft's own record first, not
+  memory. (2026-08-03) If the diagnostic text mentions "obsolete", a pending/error-level
+  obsolete warning, or the symptom appeared right after a BC platform or app version bump,
+  this is not a hypothesis to reconstruct from reading source alone — Microsoft publishes
+  the exact record of what changed and why. Check, in order: `BREAKINGCHANGES.md` in the
+  `microsoft/BCApps` reference clone (`~/.claude/reference-repos/microsoft/BCApps/` — see
+  `[[curabis-app-sources-must-be-checked-first]]`; GitHub MCP if the clone is stale) for the
+  relevant version transition, then Microsoft Learn's version-specific pages
+  (`deprecated-features-w1`, `deprecated-features-platform`, `upgrade-considerations-v<NN>`)
+  via `microsoft_docs_search`/`microsoft_docs_fetch`. Cite the specific entry — the
+  replacement member, the removal version, the migration note — as the root cause. Only
+  fall back to reading source and reasoning from scratch if the published record genuinely
+  doesn't cover the symptom, and say so explicitly rather than skipping the check silently.
