  ✗ The rules table binds a name nothing reads: a key that names no Service file, or a row no step performs that is neither an advice class nor refused. Rename it to what it means, or take it out. rules.services['translation'].notarize is a row no step of translation performs. A row binds nothing until a step does its act.
