## Claim

SF Symbols includes "stethoscope" as a system name. No combined apple+stethoscope symbol exists. Options: (1) stethoscope SF Symbol alone — compact, recognizable, (2) Text emoji "🩺" — matches ManyHats emoji pattern, (3) custom SF Symbol — overkill for v1. The apple logo ("apple.logo") exists but is a trademark glyph, not ideal for third-party use. Recommendation: use SF Symbol "stethoscope" as the default icon, with the health grade letter (A-F) overlaid or shown beside it when space allows. The stethoscope alone is more recognizable at menu bar size than trying to combine two symbols.
