┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Must the logic ALWAYS execute?                          │
│ (including imports, API calls, Server Scripts)          │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ YES → Server-side (Controller or Server Script)         │
│ NO  → What is the primary goal?                         │
│       ├── UI feedback/UX improvement → Client Script    │
│       ├── Show/hide fields → Client Script              │
│       ├── Link filters → Client Script                  │
│       ├── Data validation → BOTH (client + server)      │
