## Executive read

### BLUF

February is a thin month. No official consumer-robot recall, no named injury, no companion-robot brick, and no new docket was located in the window. January’s aibo launch and A1:2018 remain background.

### Key judgments

1. **[Assessment — High confidence]** A search of CPSC, Health Canada, UK OPSS, EU Safety Gate, manufacturer recall pages, and named newsrooms produced no spine-grade consumer kinematic electronics action dated February 2018.
2. **[Assessment — High confidence]** Ride-on / walk-behind mower files, if any, are out of class.
3. **[Inference — Moderate confidence]** Official silence in February is not a finding that yards or companion clouds were empty.

### Analytic labels
- **Fact** — verified reporting or primary record
- **Assessment** — analytic judgment
- **Inference** — reasoned but not directly observed
- **Uncertainty** — unresolved information gap

### Source grades
- **A1** — authoritative primary record / directly confirmed
- **B1–B2** — generally reliable and corroborated
- **C3** — useful but requires caution (typical for forums)

**Forum / community notes.**
- none found.
