## Context

Sergei asked to continue the active goal: raise project memory, perform an assessment, create a Russian version of the site for Kazakhstan, and propose enterprise-grade AI case additions. The current repository is `/Users/svmac/development/iqon`. Existing project memory says `www.iqon.com` uses the new static redesign, apex `iqon.com` remains legacy WordPress, and the repo has a dirty worktree that must not be reverted.

## Criteria

- [x] ISC-1: Project memory page is read before implementation decisions.
- [x] ISC-2: Current git status is inspected before file edits.
- [x] ISC-3: Existing changed files are reviewed before modification.
- [x] ISC-4: Current site file structure is inventoried.
- [x] ISC-5: Current homepage content is inspected directly.
- [x] ISC-6: Current case studies content is inspected directly.
- [x] ISC-7: Russian Kazakhstan positioning is added to homepage.
- [x] ISC-8: Kazakhstan market copy is written in Russian.
- [x] ISC-9: Enterprise AI cases are added as concrete proposals.
- [x] ISC-10: AI cases avoid unverifiable named customer claims.
- [x] ISC-11: Public contacts remain consistent with project memory.
- [x] ISC-12: Existing visual design system is preserved.
- [x] ISC-13: No unrelated legacy files are destructively reverted.
- [x] ISC-14: Russian content uses business-appropriate terminology.
- [x] ISC-15: Kazakhstan version is reachable from site navigation.
- [x] ISC-16: Case studies page reflects enterprise AI additions.
- [x] ISC-17: Local static site serves modified pages.
- [x] ISC-18: Homepage returns HTTP 200 locally.
- [x] ISC-19: Case studies page returns HTTP 200 locally.
- [x] ISC-20: HTML markup has no obvious broken anchors.
- [x] ISC-21: Desktop viewport is visually inspected after edits.
- [x] ISC-22: Mobile viewport is visually inspected after edits.
- [x] ISC-23: Final diff is reviewed before status report.
- [x] ISC-24: Verification commands and signals are recorded.

## Decisions

- Use the existing static HTML/CSS/JS structure unless inspection proves another canonical target.
- Keep AI cases as proposals and anonymized enterprise scenarios unless approved evidence exists.

## Verification

- `git status --short` should show the dirty worktree without destructive rollback.
- Local HTTP smoke should return 200 for homepage and case studies.
- Browser or screenshot inspection should confirm desktop and mobile rendering.

Observed signals:
- `git status --short` showed existing dirty worktree before edits; no destructive rollback was used.
- `python3 -m http.server 8062` served the static site locally.
- `curl` returned `home 200`, `kz 200`, `cases 200`, and `sitemap 200`.
- `python3 -c ... HTMLParser ...` parsed `index.html`, `kz/index.html`, and `case-studies/index.html`.
- `python3 -c ... ElementTree ...` parsed `sitemap.xml` and printed `sitemap ok`.
- `git diff --check` returned no whitespace errors.
- `qlmanage -t` produced a thumbnail for `kz/index.html`; visual inspection showed the Russian Kazakhstan hero and Enterprise AI area visible.
