Pattern Decisions This Source Supports
| Pattern | Supported decision | Required contract | Claim note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Data export | Choose data export when the user needs a copy or transfer of existing data outside the current product workflow. | Export scope is explicit before the job starts and remains visible through progress, completion, failure, and download. | Supports user-facing account data export archive creation. |
| Hidden destructive account deletion | Flag this anti-pattern when users can create an account but cannot find a direct account deletion or erasure request path from account settings, app settings, or the required public web resource. | Users can reach account deletion from account settings or an equivalent account-control route without needing exact support-search terms. | Supports separating data export from account deletion because export creates a copy without erasing the source account. |
