Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are identified. First clarify how enterprise policy should express source order and how ties or unavailable sources behave, then locate the group-policy handling and duplicate-package source-selection areas. Done means the policy can deterministically sequence sources and the behavior is covered by tests.
