* **Launch of the Kubernetes AI Conformance Program:** The group launched the official AI conformance program. This included the creation of the `cncf/k8s-ai-conformance` repository to host the program's resources and certification process, and an announcement at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2025.

* **Release of Conformance Checklists:** The WG defined and released conformance checklists for multiple Kubernetes versions, providing a clear baseline for AI-ready clusters:
* `AI Conformance-1.33.yaml`
* `AI Conformance-1.34.yaml`
* `AI Conformance-1.35.yaml`
* [`AIConformance-1.33.yaml`](https://github.com/cncf/k8s-ai-conformance/blob/main/docs/AIConformance-1.33.yaml)
* [`AIConformance-1.34.yaml`](https://github.com/cncf/k8s-ai-conformance/blob/main/docs/AIConformance-1.34.yaml)
* [`AIConformance-1.35.yaml`](https://github.com/cncf/k8s-ai-conformance/blob/main/docs/AIConformance-1.35.yaml)

* **Established Requirement & Test Processes:**
* **Established Requirement Definition and Graduation Processes:**
* Transitioned requirement tracking from documents to a structured GitHub Project: [WG AI Conformance Requirements](https://github.com/orgs/kubernetes-sigs/projects/114).
* Defined the "Kubernetes AI Conformance Requirement (KAR)" process, mirroring the KEP process, to manage the lifecycle of requirements (SHOULD/MUST).
* Defined the [Kubernetes AI Conformance Requirement (KAR)](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/wg-ai-conformance/tree/main/kars/NNNN-kar-template) process, mirroring the KEP process, to manage the lifecycle of requirements (SHOULD/MUST).
* **Graduation to Subproject:** Following the successful launch of the conformance program, the Working Group will transition into a permanent subproject under SIG Architecture in 2026 to ensure long-term maintenance of the program.

2. Are there any areas and/or subprojects that your group needs help with (e.g. fewer than 2 active OWNERS)?
