Save outputs non-destructively in the requested project directory, and leave the intent with the file: after every generation, run `node {{scripts_path}}/embed-prompt.mjs --prompt ""` so the prompt is embedded in the image itself, because the build thread composes what you made and needs to know what it is looking at, and the embedding survives copies where sidecars get lost. 10.

A missing signature element, a changed topology, or content added without approval fails fidelity and outranks every craft point in material_fixes. When MATERIAL is contradicted on the focal element, or contradiction is the page rather than the exception, stop ordering repairs: make the first material fix a rebuild directive naming the comp regions to re-derive and the assets to produce; a list of patches against a rejected page launders the rejection into an approval. In every material_fixes list, a fix that requires producing an asset says so explicitly ("produce: as a raster asset"), never phrased as a style adjustment the parent will answer with CSS. The comp is the spec for composition, topology, element inventory, density, lettering character, and material; it is not a pixel spec for semantics, accessibility, or responsive reflow, and that allowance covers translation, never replacement. 3. **Ceiling.** Against the QUALITY BAR card: name the world's native devices the build left unused, frame, depth, lettering treatment, ornament density, motion. The card governs commitment and finish, never composition. 4. **Contract, promise by promise.** First verify FORM carries the seed key the concept roll printed; a contract with no seed key, or one the parent cannot corroborate, means the roll was skipped and that is a material fix ahead of any craft point. Then, for each of the five blocks, does the render keep the promise? Apply the memory test to the first viewport. 5. **Truth.** Demonstration data authored and labeled synthetic; no invented commercial claims; unanswered claims present as marked placeholders, not omissions. Every image-native region of the approved comp shipped as a real asset, not a gradient standing in for one, and every produced asset visibly present in the screenshots; an asset applied at near-zero opacity or buried behind other paint is a compliance token, not a shipped material. +6. **Floor.** Read the craft floor's Refuse list and hold the screenshots against it: kickers and eyebrows, hard offset shadows outside a neobrutalist world, glyph icons, system display faces, gradient text, side stripes, and the rest. A banned element is a material fix even when it matches nothing in the comp, because the builder loaded the same ban before writing it, and fidelity to a comp cannot authorize what the floor refuses.

When MATERIAL is contradicted on the focal element, or contradiction is the page rather than the exception, stop ordering repairs: make the first material fix a rebuild directive naming the comp regions to re-derive and the assets to produce; a list of patches against a rejected page launders the rejection into an approval. In every material_fixes list, a fix that requires producing an asset says so explicitly ("produce: as a raster asset"), never phrased as a style adjustment the parent will answer with CSS. The comp is the spec for composition, topology, element inventory, density, lettering character, and material; it is not a pixel spec for semantics, accessibility, or responsive reflow, and that allowance covers translation, never replacement. 3. **Ceiling.** Against the QUALITY BAR card: name the world's native devices the build left unused, frame, depth, lettering treatment, ornament density, motion. The card governs commitment and finish, never composition. 4. **Contract, promise by promise.** First verify FORM carries the seed key the concept roll printed; a contract with no seed key, or one the parent cannot corroborate, means the roll was skipped and that is a material fix ahead of any craft point. Then, for each of the five blocks, does the render keep the promise? Apply the memory test to the first viewport. 5. **Truth.** Demonstration data authored and labeled synthetic; no invented commercial claims; unanswered claims present as marked placeholders, not omissions. Every image-native region of the approved comp shipped as a real asset, not a gradient standing in for one, and every produced asset visibly present in the screenshots; an asset applied at near-zero opacity or buried behind other paint is a compliance token, not a shipped material. +6. **Floor.** Read the craft floor's Refuse list and hold the screenshots against it: kickers and eyebrows, hard offset shadows outside a neobrutalist world, glyph icons, system display faces, gradient text, side stripes, and the rest. A banned element is a material fix even when it matches nothing in the comp, because the builder loaded the same ban before writing it, and fidelity to a comp cannot authorize what the floor refuses. The parent's hook findings cover this mechanically where hooks run; this check exists because hookless harnesses reach you with none, and the last two live sessions shipped five kickers past a reviewer that never looked. Do not run a second detector pass; mechanical findings belong to the parent's hooks. -## Verdict Pass +## Disposition -When the parent returns with post-fix recaptures, you are scoring, not re-hunting.

The script assigns which direction gets built and deals catalog challengers. Fuse each challenger before judging it: the challenger supplies the form and its system grammar, the product supplies every fact, and clarity wins conflicts. Weigh fused challengers against the assigned direction on exactly two axes, audience identification and product clarity; losing to strong grounded material is a valid outcome, and beating a thin or tool-monoculture list is the point. -5.

An element never written down is the element the build silently drops, and the direction contract's 150 words cannot carry this list, so this inventory is where it lives. Textures, portraits, and scenes are raster-by-default; a CSS gradient is not a texture medium. The affinity runs both ways: precise geometry, hard-edged shape systems, diagrams, expressive motion, shaders, and anything interactive are vector and GPU territory, SVG, canvas, WebGL, where reaching for a raster flattens what should move, scale, and respond. Raster is for what the world paints; code is for what the world draws, animates, or reacts with, and choosing code there is ambition, not economy. Every `produce` entry is produced before the build ships, through the asset producer or in the current thread; an inventory with unproduced entries is an unfinished build, and this gate is where imagery-free pages come from when it is skipped. +Before building, inventory the approved comp's major visible ingredients in writing (a short table in the surface brief or working notes; the finish reviewer audits shipped assets against it) and choose an implementation medium for each: semantic HTML/CSS/SVG, existing project asset, generated raster, sourced raster, icon library, canvas/WebGL, or accepted omission.

If the concept depends on a photograph, architectural scene, product object, portrait, or other raster-native material, do not silently replace it with generic CSS scenery. +The medium column is where an approved design most often dies, so it obeys a gate: the medium is decided by what the comp region shows, never by what feels buildable in the current stack. A human figure, a product object, machinery, or any material with lighting and depth is raster whatever the stack; writing "silhouette" for a photographic figure, or "CSS" for a sculpted panel's finish, is not a medium choice, it is the quiet deletion of the approved design, and it is how a comp full of physical material becomes a flat page with the same section order. Style does not move this boundary: a comp region with perspective, shading, figure drawing, or dense mechanical detail is illustration however line-drawn it looks, and no build session can author illustration as vectors, so it regenerates as raster like any photograph. Authored SVG covers what a session can specify exactly, diagrams with countable elements, controls, flat shape systems, and it ends where drawing skill begins; an instruction-manual world does not convert its illustrations into diagrams, it makes them line-art illustrations. Produce such regions by regenerating them cleanly, with the approved comp and its embedded prompt as the reference for a fresh render at asset resolution; never crop pixels out of the comp itself, whose effective resolution sits far below asset grade. Dropping an image-native region instead of producing it is a scope decision the user makes at the approval point, never a silent flattening after it. Generated imagery is a material, not a claim: evidence rules bind assertions, specs, testimonials, and photographs presented as real, never render fidelity, so "no photography on hand" forbids fake proof, not an illustrated hero. + +The gate runs both ways: precise geometry, hard-edged shape systems, diagrams, expressive motion, shaders, and anything interactive are vector and GPU territory (SVG, canvas, WebGL), where a raster flattens what should move, scale, and respond, and code executed safely and professionally remains first-class there.

Treat the comp as a north star, not something to trace, and know what that allows: translation into semantic, responsive, accessible code, never recomposition. Keeping the palette and mood while redrawing the topology is a second art direction, not an adaptation. Do not rasterize core UI text or controls. Do not substitute a different visual driver after approval without asking. ## Produce only the assets the build needs -Generation context is part of the asset: the thread that wrote a prompt knows what the image contains, why, and how it is meant to sit in the layout, and a build composed by a thread without that knowledge places assets it does not understand. So prefer generating build-critical imagery in the build thread when the budget allows, and when a subagent produces assets instead, every asset must carry its prompt, and the builder reads those prompts before composing a single one of them. The carrier is uniform across harnesses: after generating any image with any tool, native or `generate-image.mjs` (which does it automatically), run `node .agents/skills/impeccable/scripts/embed-prompt.mjs --prompt ""` so the intent lives inside the file itself and survives copies between machines and harnesses; `--read` recovers it from any impeccable-generated image. +Generation context is part of the asset: a build composed by a thread that never saw the prompts places assets it does not understand.

Classify every salient element: match, acceptable adaptation, missing, contradicted, or added without approval. Two rows are mandatory in every matrix. TYPE: the display lettering's character, compression, width, weight, contrast, terminals, against the comp's; a face of a different character is contradicted however the layout matches. MATERIAL: an element rendered as flat CSS or clean vector where the comp shows painted, textured, dimensional, or photographic material is contradicted regardless of placement, because medium is part of the promise. When no approved comp was supplied, TYPE and MATERIAL do not lapse: judge them against the contract's OWN-WORLD and the world's real materials, and treat faked physicality, CSS bevels, embossing, stamped-metal or chalk effects imitating a material the page never actually renders, as contradicted on its face; imitation material is the single most reliable mark of machine-made design. An adaptation counts as intentional only when it cites the user answer, surface brief, accessibility need, or product truth that forced it; an uncited deviation is a defect.

Classify every salient element: match, acceptable adaptation, missing, contradicted, or added without approval. Two rows are mandatory in every matrix.

An adaptation counts as intentional only when it cites the user answer, surface brief, accessibility need, or product truth that forced it; an uncited deviation is a defect. A missing signature element, a changed topology, or content added without approval fails fidelity and outranks every craft point in material_fixes. When MATERIAL is contradicted on the focal element, or contradiction is the page rather than the exception, stop ordering repairs: make the first material fix a rebuild directive naming the comp regions to re-derive and the assets to produce; a list of patches against a rejected page launders the rejection into an approval. In every material_fixes list, a fix that requires producing an asset says so explicitly ("produce: as a raster asset"), never phrased as a style adjustment the parent will answer with CSS. The comp is the spec for composition, topology, element inventory, density, lettering character, and material; it is not a pixel spec for semantics, accessibility, or responsive reflow, and that allowance covers translation, never replacement. 3. **Ceiling.** Against the QUALITY BAR card: name the world's native devices the build left unused, frame, depth, lettering treatment, ornament density, motion. The card governs commitment and finish, never composition. 4. **Contract, promise by promise.** First verify FORM carries the seed key the concept roll printed; a contract with no seed key, or one the parent cannot corroborate, means the roll was skipped and that is a material fix ahead of any craft point. Then, for each of the five blocks, does the render keep the promise? Apply the memory test to the first viewport. 5. **Truth.** Demonstration data authored and labeled synthetic; no invented commercial claims; unanswered claims present as marked placeholders, not omissions. Every image-native region of the approved comp shipped as a real asset, not a gradient standing in for one, and every produced asset visibly present in the screenshots; an asset applied at near-zero opacity or buried behind other paint is a compliance token, not a shipped material. +6. **Floor.** Read the craft floor's Refuse list and hold the screenshots against it: kickers and eyebrows, hard offset shadows outside a neobrutalist world, glyph icons, system display faces, gradient text, side stripes, and the rest. A banned element is a material fix even when it matches nothing in the comp, because the builder loaded the same ban before writing it, and fidelity to a comp cannot authorize what the floor refuses. The parent's hook findings cover this mechanically where hooks run; this check exists because hookless harnesses reach you with none, and the last two live sessions shipped five kickers past a reviewer that never looked. Do not run a second detector pass; mechanical findings belong to the parent's hooks. -## Verdict Pass +## Disposition -When the parent returns with post-fix recaptures, you are scoring, not re-hunting.

You are the last gate before the user, not a colleague softening news for a colleague: calibrate against the approved comp and the world's quality bar, never against the effort visible in the build.

Classify every salient element: match, acceptable adaptation, missing, contradicted, or added without approval. Two rows are mandatory in every matrix. TYPE: the display lettering's character, compression, width, weight, contrast, terminals, against the comp's; a face of a different character is contradicted however the layout matches. MATERIAL: an element rendered as flat CSS or clean vector where the comp shows painted, textured, dimensional, or photographic material is contradicted regardless of placement, because medium is part of the promise.

When MATERIAL is contradicted on the focal element, or contradiction is the page rather than the exception, stop ordering repairs: make the first material fix a rebuild directive naming the comp regions to re-derive and the assets to produce; a list of patches against a rejected page launders the rejection into an approval. In every material_fixes list, a fix that requires producing an asset says so explicitly ("produce: as a raster asset"), never phrased as a style adjustment the parent will answer with CSS. The comp is the spec for composition, topology, element inventory, density, lettering character, and material; it is not a pixel spec for semantics, accessibility, or responsive reflow, and that allowance covers translation, never replacement. 3. **Ceiling.** Against the QUALITY BAR card: name the world's native devices the build left unused, frame, depth, lettering treatment, ornament density, motion. The card governs commitment and finish, never composition. 4. **Contract, promise by promise.** First verify FORM carries the seed key the concept roll printed; a contract with no seed key, or one the parent cannot corroborate, means the roll was skipped and that is a material fix ahead of any craft point. Then, for each of the five blocks, does the render keep the promise? Apply the memory test to the first viewport. 5. **Truth.** Demonstration data authored and labeled synthetic; no invented commercial claims; unanswered claims present as marked placeholders, not omissions. Every image-native region of the approved comp shipped as a real asset, not a gradient standing in for one, and every produced asset visibly present in the screenshots; an asset applied at near-zero opacity or buried behind other paint is a compliance token, not a shipped material. +6. **Floor.** Read the craft floor's Refuse list and hold the screenshots against it: kickers and eyebrows, hard offset shadows outside a neobrutalist world, glyph icons, system display faces, gradient text, side stripes, and the rest. A banned element is a material fix even when it matches nothing in the comp, because the builder loaded the same ban before writing it, and fidelity to a comp cannot authorize what the floor refuses.

What would this thing look like as a physical object; what did its world look like before the web? Near-duplicates count once. When more than three of the seven share one material family, the derivation stopped at the subject's most obvious artifact; dig until the list spans at least three families. 3. Turn that material into complete directions: each joins a reusable visual world to a concrete first-surface experience. 4. Run `node .claude/skills/impeccable/scripts/concept-seed.mjs --scope direction --mode ` and follow what it prints. This step has no substitute and no skip condition: on a new or replacement world, writing artifact code before this script has run and its assignment is acknowledged is a contract violation, whatever the harness, the model, or the time pressure, because the roll is the mechanism that keeps every run from converging on the category default. The script assigns which direction gets built and deals catalog challengers. Fuse each challenger before judging it: the challenger supplies the form and its system grammar, the product supplies every fact, and clarity wins conflicts. Weigh fused challengers against the assigned direction on exactly two axes, audience identification and product clarity; losing to strong grounded material is a valid outcome, and beating a thin or tool-monoculture list is the point. -5. Present one direction, fully committed: its world, first viewport, visitor path, signature interaction, cross-surface reach, and honest risk. Alongside it, offer the hand's challengers as named alternates, the weighing's verdict written on each as its one-line case, an honest "fuses poorly because X" included; the weighing informs the user's choice, it never pre-empts it. A hand holds at most three challengers: when the roll deals more, the three strongest join the hand and the rest wait in the re-roll pool, noted in one line; dropping a challenger from the hand itself takes a named product-truth failure, disclosed. Add re-roll with an optional one-line steer. What you never present is a ranked menu of your own grounded candidates; a lineup of those invites the safest card, while dealt challengers carry no such rut. The two channels share this structure and differ only in richness: cards and boards on the decision page, names and one-liners through the structured tool; the structured tool's option list also carries the standing exit as its last option. +5.

It is the user's door, never yours: never recommend it, never weigh it against the roll, never let it soften the dealt directions; the counterweights bind the unchosen default, not the chosen one. When the user takes it, in the canon action, a safer-steer, or plain words asking for the familiar or competitor-like path, convention becomes the commitment: ask once for two or three products this should sit alongside, make their craft level the bar, and execute the canon at full fidelity, without irony or smuggled quirk. A standing preference gets recorded as a brand commitment in PRODUCT.md. Re-roll eliminates every direction already shown, grounded and challenger alike; after two consecutive re-rolls, ask what quality is missing. You may re-roll on your own only on named factual grounds, when the assigned direction cannot carry the product's truth or task; taste is never grounds. The user may re-roll freely, and a user- or brief-pinned direction beats the roll, always. Present the decision visually: write an options payload with the assigned direction leading, the dealt challengers as alternates carrying their QUALITY BAR cards, and re-roll, steer, plus canon enabled; a degraded roll with no challengers still uses the page, as a single text-only card with re-roll. Give every card the same anatomy, thesis, palette, materials, first viewport, honest risk, and the challengers' case lines (run the script with `--schema` for the exact shape); the page renders identity from these fields, so a grounded direction is never a wall of text against rendered art, and a challenger's catalog image rides as labeled inspiration, never as the promise of the build.

The same written inventory names the comp's compositional commitments: navigation items and icons, headline levels and their scale relationship, signature geometry such as seams, masks, and overlaps, and each section's arrangement and density. An element never written down is the element the build silently drops, and the direction contract's 150 words cannot carry this list, so this inventory is where it lives. Textures, portraits, and scenes are raster-by-default; a CSS gradient is not a texture medium. The affinity runs both ways: precise geometry, hard-edged shape systems, diagrams, expressive motion, shaders, and anything interactive are vector and GPU territory, SVG, canvas, WebGL, where reaching for a raster flattens what should move, scale, and respond. Raster is for what the world paints; code is for what the world draws, animates, or reacts with, and choosing code there is ambition, not economy. Every `produce` entry is produced before the build ships, through the asset producer or in the current thread; an inventory with unproduced entries is an unfinished build, and this gate is where imagery-free pages come from when it is skipped. +Before building, inventory the approved comp's major visible ingredients in writing (a short table in the surface brief or working notes; the finish reviewer audits shipped assets against it) and choose an implementation medium for each: semantic HTML/CSS/SVG, existing project asset, generated raster, sourced raster, icon library, canvas/WebGL, or accepted omission.

If the concept depends on a photograph, architectural scene, product object, portrait, or other raster-native material, do not silently replace it with generic CSS scenery. +The medium column is where an approved design most often dies, so it obeys a gate: the medium is decided by what the comp region shows, never by what feels buildable in the current stack. A human figure, a product object, machinery, or any material with lighting and depth is raster whatever the stack; writing "silhouette" for a photographic figure, or "CSS" for a sculpted panel's finish, is not a medium choice, it is the quiet deletion of the approved design, and it is how a comp full of physical material becomes a flat page with the same section order. Style does not move this boundary: a comp region with perspective, shading, figure drawing, or dense mechanical detail is illustration however line-drawn it looks, and no build session can author illustration as vectors, so it regenerates as raster like any photograph. Authored SVG covers what a session can specify exactly, diagrams with countable elements, controls, flat shape systems, and it ends where drawing skill begins; an instruction-manual world does not convert its illustrations into diagrams, it makes them line-art illustrations. Produce such regions by regenerating them cleanly, with the approved comp and its embedded prompt as the reference for a fresh render at asset resolution; never crop pixels out of the comp itself, whose effective resolution sits far below asset grade. Dropping an image-native region instead of producing it is a scope decision the user makes at the approval point, never a silent flattening after it. Generated imagery is a material, not a claim: evidence rules bind assertions, specs, testimonials, and photographs presented as real, never render fidelity, so "no photography on hand" forbids fake proof, not an illustrated hero. + +The gate runs both ways: precise geometry, hard-edged shape systems, diagrams, expressive motion, shaders, and anything interactive are vector and GPU territory (SVG, canvas, WebGL), where a raster flattens what should move, scale, and respond, and code executed safely and professionally remains first-class there. Raster is for what the world paints; code is for what the world draws, animates, or reacts with, and choosing code there is ambition, not economy.

Treat the comp as a north star, not something to trace, and know what that allows: translation into semantic, responsive, accessible code, never recomposition. Keeping the palette and mood while redrawing the topology is a second art direction, not an adaptation. Do not rasterize core UI text or controls. Do not substitute a different visual driver after approval without asking. ## Produce only the assets the build needs -Generation context is part of the asset: the thread that wrote a prompt knows what the image contains, why, and how it is meant to sit in the layout, and a build composed by a thread without that knowledge places assets it does not understand. So prefer generating build-critical imagery in the build thread when the budget allows, and when a subagent produces assets instead, every asset must carry its prompt, and the builder reads those prompts before composing a single one of them. The carrier is uniform across harnesses: after generating any image with any tool, native or `generate-image.mjs` (which does it automatically), run `node .claude/skills/impeccable/scripts/embed-prompt.mjs --prompt ""` so the intent lives inside the file itself and survives copies between machines and harnesses; `--read` recovers it from any impeccable-generated image. +Generation context is part of the asset: a build composed by a thread that never saw the prompts places assets it does not understand.

Classify every salient element: match, acceptable adaptation, missing, contradicted, or added without approval. Two rows are mandatory in every matrix. TYPE: the display lettering's character, compression, width, weight, contrast, terminals, against the comp's; a face of a different character is contradicted however the layout matches. MATERIAL: an element rendered as flat CSS or clean vector where the comp shows painted, textured, dimensional, or photographic material is contradicted regardless of placement, because medium is part of the promise.

A missing signature element, a changed topology, or content added without approval fails fidelity and outranks every craft point in material_fixes. When MATERIAL is contradicted on the focal element, or contradiction is the page rather than the exception, stop ordering repairs: make the first material fix a rebuild directive naming the comp regions to re-derive and the assets to produce; a list of patches against a rejected page launders the rejection into an approval. In every material_fixes list, a fix that requires producing an asset says so explicitly ("produce: as a raster asset"), never phrased as a style adjustment the parent will answer with CSS. The comp is the spec for composition, topology, element inventory, density, lettering character, and material; it is not a pixel spec for semantics, accessibility, or responsive reflow, and that allowance covers translation, never replacement. 3. **Ceiling.** Against the QUALITY BAR card: name the world's native devices the build left unused, frame, depth, lettering treatment, ornament density, motion. The card governs commitment and finish, never composition. 4. **Contract, promise by promise.** First verify FORM carries the seed key the concept roll printed; a contract with no seed key, or one the parent cannot corroborate, means the roll was skipped and that is a material fix ahead of any craft point. Then, for each of the five blocks, does the render keep the promise? Apply the memory test to the first viewport. 5. **Truth.** Demonstration data authored and labeled synthetic; no invented commercial claims; unanswered claims present as marked placeholders, not omissions. Every image-native region of the approved comp shipped as a real asset, not a gradient standing in for one, and every produced asset visibly present in the screenshots; an asset applied at near-zero opacity or buried behind other paint is a compliance token, not a shipped material. +6. **Floor.** Read the craft floor's Refuse list and hold the screenshots against it: kickers and eyebrows, hard offset shadows outside a neobrutalist world, glyph icons, system display faces, gradient text, side stripes, and the rest. A banned element is a material fix even when it matches nothing in the comp, because the builder loaded the same ban before writing it, and fidelity to a comp cannot authorize what the floor refuses.

Classify every salient element: match, acceptable adaptation, missing, contradicted, or added without approval. Two rows are mandatory in every matrix. TYPE: the display lettering's character, compression, width, weight, contrast, terminals, against the comp's; a face of a different character is contradicted however the layout matches. MATERIAL: an element rendered as flat CSS or clean vector where the comp shows painted, textured, dimensional, or photographic material is contradicted regardless of placement, because medium is part of the promise.

When MATERIAL is contradicted on the focal element, or contradiction is the page rather than the exception, stop ordering repairs: make the first material fix a rebuild directive naming the comp regions to re-derive and the assets to produce; a list of patches against a rejected page launders the rejection into an approval. In every material_fixes list, a fix that requires producing an asset says so explicitly ("produce: as a raster asset"), never phrased as a style adjustment the parent will answer with CSS.

The card governs commitment and finish, never composition. 4. **Contract, promise by promise.** First verify FORM carries the seed key the concept roll printed; a contract with no seed key, or one the parent cannot corroborate, means the roll was skipped and that is a material fix ahead of any craft point. Then, for each of the five blocks, does the render keep the promise? Apply the memory test to the first viewport. 5. **Truth.** Demonstration data authored and labeled synthetic; no invented commercial claims; unanswered claims present as marked placeholders, not omissions. Every image-native region of the approved comp shipped as a real asset, not a gradient standing in for one, and every produced asset visibly present in the screenshots; an asset applied at near-zero opacity or buried behind other paint is a compliance token, not a shipped material. +6. **Floor.** Read the craft floor's Refuse list and hold the screenshots against it: kickers and eyebrows, hard offset shadows outside a neobrutalist world, glyph icons, system display faces, gradient text, side stripes, and the rest. A banned element is a material fix even when it matches nothing in the comp, because the builder loaded the same ban before writing it, and fidelity to a comp cannot authorize what the floor refuses.

An element never written down is the element the build silently drops, and the direction contract's 150 words cannot carry this list, so this inventory is where it lives. Textures, portraits, and scenes are raster-by-default; a CSS gradient is not a texture medium. The affinity runs both ways: precise geometry, hard-edged shape systems, diagrams, expressive motion, shaders, and anything interactive are vector and GPU territory, SVG, canvas, WebGL, where reaching for a raster flattens what should move, scale, and respond. Raster is for what the world paints; code is for what the world draws, animates, or reacts with, and choosing code there is ambition, not economy. Every `produce` entry is produced before the build ships, through the asset producer or in the current thread; an inventory with unproduced entries is an unfinished build, and this gate is where imagery-free pages come from when it is skipped. +Before building, inventory the approved comp's major visible ingredients in writing (a short table in the surface brief or working notes; the finish reviewer audits shipped assets against it) and choose an implementation medium for each: semantic HTML/CSS/SVG, existing project asset, generated raster, sourced raster, icon library, canvas/WebGL, or accepted omission.

If the concept depends on a photograph, architectural scene, product object, portrait, or other raster-native material, do not silently replace it with generic CSS scenery. +The medium column is where an approved design most often dies, so it obeys a gate: the medium is decided by what the comp region shows, never by what feels buildable in the current stack. A human figure, a product object, machinery, or any material with lighting and depth is raster whatever the stack; writing "silhouette" for a photographic figure, or "CSS" for a sculpted panel's finish, is not a medium choice, it is the quiet deletion of the approved design, and it is how a comp full of physical material becomes a flat page with the same section order. Style does not move this boundary: a comp region with perspective, shading, figure drawing, or dense mechanical detail is illustration however line-drawn it looks, and no build session can author illustration as vectors, so it regenerates as raster like any photograph. Authored SVG covers what a session can specify exactly, diagrams with countable elements, controls, flat shape systems, and it ends where drawing skill begins; an instruction-manual world does not convert its illustrations into diagrams, it makes them line-art illustrations. Produce such regions by regenerating them cleanly, with the approved comp and its embedded prompt as the reference for a fresh render at asset resolution; never crop pixels out of the comp itself, whose effective resolution sits far below asset grade. Dropping an image-native region instead of producing it is a scope decision the user makes at the approval point, never a silent flattening after it. Generated imagery is a material, not a claim: evidence rules bind assertions, specs, testimonials, and photographs presented as real, never render fidelity, so "no photography on hand" forbids fake proof, not an illustrated hero. + +The gate runs both ways: precise geometry, hard-edged shape systems, diagrams, expressive motion, shaders, and anything interactive are vector and GPU territory (SVG, canvas, WebGL), where a raster flattens what should move, scale, and respond, and code executed safely and professionally remains first-class there.

Treat the comp as a north star, not something to trace, and know what that allows: translation into semantic, responsive, accessible code, never recomposition. Keeping the palette and mood while redrawing the topology is a second art direction, not an adaptation. Do not rasterize core UI text or controls. Do not substitute a different visual driver after approval without asking. ## Produce only the assets the build needs -Generation context is part of the asset: the thread that wrote a prompt knows what the image contains, why, and how it is meant to sit in the layout, and a build composed by a thread without that knowledge places assets it does not understand. So prefer generating build-critical imagery in the build thread when the budget allows, and when a subagent produces assets instead, every asset must carry its prompt, and the builder reads those prompts before composing a single one of them. The carrier is uniform across harnesses: after generating any image with any tool, native or `generate-image.mjs` (which does it automatically), run `node .cursor/skills/impeccable/scripts/embed-prompt.mjs --prompt ""` so the intent lives inside the file itself and survives copies between machines and harnesses; `--read` recovers it from any impeccable-generated image. +Generation context is part of the asset: a build composed by a thread that never saw the prompts places assets it does not understand.

If CSS will own radius, clipping, shadows, borders, perspective, responsive cropping, captions, or card frames, do not bake those into the bitmap. 9. Save outputs non-destructively in the requested project directory, and leave the intent with the file: after every generation, run `node .gemini/skills/impeccable/scripts/embed-prompt.mjs --prompt ""` so the prompt is embedded in the image itself, because the build thread composes what you made and needs to know what it is looking at, and the embedding survives copies where sidecars get lost. 10. Compare each output against its source crop, opening every image by its workspace-relative path; sandboxed viewers reject absolute paths. If a review/QA tool is available, run it before the final manifest, then retry each major/fatal finding once before finalizing. -Use `direct` only for provided source assets that can already ship after crop tightening, conversion, compression, or naming. Do not ship a small crop from the full-page mock as `direct` just because it looks close. - Use `texture/pattern extraction` only when the source region is already clean enough to sample as texture. If UI, cards, labels, headings, body copy, or footer chrome must be removed to make a reusable texture or background, classify it as crop-derived cleanup or clean-plate work. Use `semantic` for dashboards, charts, controls, screenshots of whole UI sections, data widgets, card chrome, app frames, icon toolbars, logos, wordmarks, and anything the final implementation can render crisply in HTML/CSS/SVG/canvas. Only ship a screenshot raster when the parent explicitly says the screenshot itself is the final asset. Semantic does not mean ignored. For every semantic role, write a concrete implementation handoff for the parent craft agent: name the DOM/component layers, CSS-owned visual treatment, SVG/canvas/icon-library pieces, responsive behavior, and which nearby produced raster assets it should compose with. For logos and icons, prefer inline SVG/vector or icon-library implementation unless the parent provides a production logo raster. -For transparency, prefer true alpha output when the tool supports it.

Classify every salient element: match, acceptable adaptation, missing, contradicted, or added without approval. Two rows are mandatory in every matrix. TYPE: the display lettering's character, compression, width, weight, contrast, terminals, against the comp's; a face of a different character is contradicted however the layout matches. MATERIAL: an element rendered as flat CSS or clean vector where the comp shows painted, textured, dimensional, or photographic material is contradicted regardless of placement, because medium is part of the promise.

When MATERIAL is contradicted on the focal element, or contradiction is the page rather than the exception, stop ordering repairs: make the first material fix a rebuild directive naming the comp regions to re-derive and the assets to produce; a list of patches against a rejected page launders the rejection into an approval. In every material_fixes list, a fix that requires producing an asset says so explicitly ("produce: as a raster asset"), never phrased as a style adjustment the parent will answer with CSS. The comp is the spec for composition, topology, element inventory, density, lettering character, and material; it is not a pixel spec for semantics, accessibility, or responsive reflow, and that allowance covers translation, never replacement. 3. **Ceiling.** Against the QUALITY BAR card: name the world's native devices the build left unused, frame, depth, lettering treatment, ornament density, motion. The card governs commitment and finish, never composition. 4. **Contract, promise by promise.** First verify FORM carries the seed key the concept roll printed; a contract with no seed key, or one the parent cannot corroborate, means the roll was skipped and that is a material fix ahead of any craft point. Then, for each of the five blocks, does the render keep the promise? Apply the memory test to the first viewport. 5. **Truth.** Demonstration data authored and labeled synthetic; no invented commercial claims; unanswered claims present as marked placeholders, not omissions. Every image-native region of the approved comp shipped as a real asset, not a gradient standing in for one, and every produced asset visibly present in the screenshots; an asset applied at near-zero opacity or buried behind other paint is a compliance token, not a shipped material. +6. **Floor.** Read the craft floor's Refuse list and hold the screenshots against it: kickers and eyebrows, hard offset shadows outside a neobrutalist world, glyph icons, system display faces, gradient text, side stripes, and the rest. A banned element is a material fix even when it matches nothing in the comp, because the builder loaded the same ban before writing it, and fidelity to a comp cannot authorize what the floor refuses.

A slot still empty when its agent returns is regenerated inline, and a slot still empty when the user answers is dropped without ceremony; no other supervision is owed. Without parallel subagents, generate in the main thread after serving, in the same reading order, and let the harness's own generation display carry the progress; the wait for the answer follows the last file.

Produce in the order the user reads: the assigned card, then the hand, then canon, each file written the moment it is done. When the harness runs subagents in parallel, fan the set out as one agent per card: each spawn is the shipped asset producer with a single-sketch packet, that card's fields, PRODUCT.md, the shared frame, and the card's declared path, up to four in flight at once. A slot still empty when its agent returns is regenerated inline, and a slot still empty when the user answers is dropped without ceremony; no other supervision is owed. Without parallel subagents, generate in the main thread after serving, in the same reading order, and let the harness's own generation display carry the progress; the wait for the answer follows the last file. A sketch answers which world, never which composition: the comp round still renders its full set, and the chosen card's sketch seeds at most one probe. With no image generation, the cards carry their identity in palette chips and facts, and that page is complete, not a lesser version. -Catalog worlds are working systems, not mood references. When one survives, carry its palette and material, type and composition, topology, controls and state, and responsive rules into the product.

An element never written down is the element the build silently drops, and the direction contract's 150 words cannot carry this list, so this inventory is where it lives. Textures, portraits, and scenes are raster-by-default; a CSS gradient is not a texture medium. The affinity runs both ways: precise geometry, hard-edged shape systems, diagrams, expressive motion, shaders, and anything interactive are vector and GPU territory, SVG, canvas, WebGL, where reaching for a raster flattens what should move, scale, and respond. Raster is for what the world paints; code is for what the world draws, animates, or reacts with, and choosing code there is ambition, not economy. Every `produce` entry is produced before the build ships, through the asset producer or in the current thread; an inventory with unproduced entries is an unfinished build, and this gate is where imagery-free pages come from when it is skipped. +Before building, inventory the approved comp's major visible ingredients in writing (a short table in the surface brief or working notes; the finish reviewer audits shipped assets against it) and choose an implementation medium for each: semantic HTML/CSS/SVG, existing project asset, generated raster, sourced raster, icon library, canvas/WebGL, or accepted omission.

If the concept depends on a photograph, architectural scene, product object, portrait, or other raster-native material, do not silently replace it with generic CSS scenery. +The medium column is where an approved design most often dies, so it obeys a gate: the medium is decided by what the comp region shows, never by what feels buildable in the current stack. A human figure, a product object, machinery, or any material with lighting and depth is raster whatever the stack; writing "silhouette" for a photographic figure, or "CSS" for a sculpted panel's finish, is not a medium choice, it is the quiet deletion of the approved design, and it is how a comp full of physical material becomes a flat page with the same section order. Style does not move this boundary: a comp region with perspective, shading, figure drawing, or dense mechanical detail is illustration however line-drawn it looks, and no build session can author illustration as vectors, so it regenerates as raster like any photograph. Authored SVG covers what a session can specify exactly, diagrams with countable elements, controls, flat shape systems, and it ends where drawing skill begins; an instruction-manual world does not convert its illustrations into diagrams, it makes them line-art illustrations. Produce such regions by regenerating them cleanly, with the approved comp and its embedded prompt as the reference for a fresh render at asset resolution; never crop pixels out of the comp itself, whose effective resolution sits far below asset grade. Dropping an image-native region instead of producing it is a scope decision the user makes at the approval point, never a silent flattening after it. Generated imagery is a material, not a claim: evidence rules bind assertions, specs, testimonials, and photographs presented as real, never render fidelity, so "no photography on hand" forbids fake proof, not an illustrated hero. + +The gate runs both ways: precise geometry, hard-edged shape systems, diagrams, expressive motion, shaders, and anything interactive are vector and GPU territory (SVG, canvas, WebGL), where a raster flattens what should move, scale, and respond, and code executed safely and professionally remains first-class there. Raster is for what the world paints; code is for what the world draws, animates, or reacts with, and choosing code there is ambition, not economy.

Treat the comp as a north star, not something to trace, and know what that allows: translation into semantic, responsive, accessible code, never recomposition. Keeping the palette and mood while redrawing the topology is a second art direction, not an adaptation. Do not rasterize core UI text or controls. Do not substitute a different visual driver after approval without asking. ## Produce only the assets the build needs -Generation context is part of the asset: the thread that wrote a prompt knows what the image contains, why, and how it is meant to sit in the layout, and a build composed by a thread without that knowledge places assets it does not understand.

Work from the card's structured fields and PRODUCT.md alone; a card too thin to brief a sketch is reported back, not padded from imagination. Render through the parent's shared frame, including its aspect: the requested surface's first viewport as a flat, matte design sketch in the card's own palette and type character, deliberately unfinished, no photorealism, no gloss; a native app or mobile-first surface is a portrait frame at its device viewport, never a landscape default. The frame is shared across siblings so no sketch looks more finished than another; a finish gap breaks the comparison.

Put each visual role in exactly one bucket: + - `produce`: needs generation, image editing, cleanup, cutout work, or a clean plate before it can ship. + - `direct`: ships after format conversion, compression, or renaming because the parent supplied a real standalone source asset, a project file, stock, or prior production art. A crop from the approved mock is never `direct`, whatever its apparent size. + - `semantic`: build in HTML/CSS/SVG/canvas, no raster output. +3. Crops from the mock are binding visual references, never shipping pixels: a full-page mock's effective resolution is reference grade, not asset grade, and a shipped crop, however close it looks, is how a beautiful comp turns into a blurry site. Every mock-derived asset goes through `produce` as a clean regeneration. +4. Give the parent an execution order for the `produce` bucket. +5. For produced assets, choose the least inventive strategy: image-to-image clean plate, faithful regeneration from crop reference, transparent cutout, texture/pattern reconstruction, stock/project source, or semantic HTML/CSS/SVG recommendation if raster is wrong. +6. Use the harness's native image tool by default when generation or editing is needed; otherwise use the skill's generate-image.mjs. + +7. Remove baked-in UI text, navigation, buttons, body copy, and mock chrome unless the text is part of the asset. +8. Think through the final DOM/CSS representation before generating. If CSS will own radius, clipping, shadows, borders, perspective, responsive cropping, captions, or card frames, do not bake those into the bitmap. +9. Save outputs non-destructively in the requested project directory, and leave the intent with the file: after every generation, run `node .github/skills/impeccable/scripts/embed-prompt.mjs --prompt ""` so the prompt is embedded in the image itself, because the build thread composes what you made and needs to know what it is looking at, and the embedding survives copies where sidecars get lost. +10. Compare each output against its source crop, opening every image by its workspace-relative path; sandboxed viewers reject absolute paths. If a review/QA tool is available, run it before the final manifest, then retry each major/fatal finding once before finalizing. + +Use `texture/pattern extraction` only when the source region is already clean enough to sample as texture. If UI, cards, labels, headings, body copy, or footer chrome must be removed to make a reusable texture or background, classify it as crop-derived cleanup or clean-plate work. + +Use `semantic` for dashboards, charts, controls, screenshots of whole UI sections, data widgets, card chrome, app frames, icon toolbars, logos, wordmarks, and anything the final implementation can render crisply in HTML/CSS/SVG/canvas. Only ship a screenshot raster when the parent explicitly says the screenshot itself is the final asset. + +Semantic does not mean ignored. For every semantic role, write a concrete implementation handoff for the parent craft agent: name the DOM/component layers, CSS-owned visual treatment, SVG/canvas/icon-library pieces, responsive behavior, and which nearby produced raster assets it should compose with. For logos and icons, prefer inline SVG/vector or icon-library implementation unless the parent provides a production logo raster. + +## Prompt Pattern + +Use this shape for image-to-image work: + +```text +Use the provided crop as the approved visual reference. +Recreate the same asset as a clean reusable production image at the target component aspect ratio and at least 2x display resolution. +Preserve silhouette, object/scene perspective, camera angle, palette, lighting, material, texture, and visual role. +Remove baked-in UI copy, navigation, buttons, labels, body text, watermarks, and mock chrome unless explicitly part of the asset. +Remove letterboxing, padding, card borders, rounded clipping, CSS shadows, perspective transforms, caption bands, and layout backgrounds that the implementation should create in code. +Do not add new objects.

An existing DESIGN.md path means update, not replace: preserve confirmed incumbent decisions and reconcile them with the build. + +## Workflow + +1. Read `reference/document.md` in full; it is the operating spec for DESIGN.md's format, token schema, sidecar, and section order. Follow it exactly. +2. Scan the artifact: stylesheets, custom properties, computed values in the source, component patterns, spacing rhythm, type ramp as actually used. The direction contract's OWN-WORLD block names the world; the build shows how it landed. Where they diverge, the build wins and the prose may note the divergence. +3. Write DESIGN.md (and the sidecar per the spec) with only durable system rules: tokens the project actually uses, named rules the build actually follows. Skip one-off values; a token used once is not a system. +4. Two ways a recorded rule goes wrong, both observed live: a prohibition that bans a device the world itself uses natively, and a value recorded to legitimize a defect. Check every prohibition against the world's own materials; a value earns its place by the build and by legibility, never by making a finding disappear. +5. Never canonize a craft-floor refusal into the system: an element the floor bans (kickers and eyebrows, hard offset shadows outside a neobrutalist world, glyph icons, system display faces) is recorded in your not-canonized line as a defect the build carries, never as a design-system rule for future surfaces to inherit. A live session shipped five invented kickers and the documenter wrote their style into DESIGN.md; that is how one violation becomes the house style. + +## Output Contract + +Return: the file paths written, a five-line summary of the recorded system (palette strategy, type ramp shape, named rules), and one line naming anything in the build you deliberately did not canonize and why.

When the harness can view images, open the screenshots, the comp, and the card first, and inventory the comp's salient elements in your own words before reading the direction contract or any builder-authored summary: a review anchored on the contract inherits whatever the builder's abstraction dropped. + +## Checks, in order + +1. **Persistence.** PRODUCT.md exists. When DESIGN.md predates this build (an extension or redesign), it matches the built world; on a new world it is written after this review by the documenter, so its absence here is not a finding. When comps exist under `.impeccable/mocks/`, an approval record exists too, the surface brief naming the approved comp or an `approved` flag in its sidecar; comps with no recorded pick mean the approval point was skipped, and that is a material finding. +2. **Fidelity.** Against your own element inventory of the approved comp, never against the contract's summary of it: topology, reading order, focal scale, overlaps and z-order, density, signature geometry, navigation items and icons, headline levels and scale relationships. Classify every salient element: match, acceptable adaptation, missing, contradicted, or added without approval. Two rows are mandatory in every matrix. TYPE: the display lettering's character, compression, width, weight, contrast, terminals, against the comp's; a face of a different character is contradicted however the layout matches. MATERIAL: an element rendered as flat CSS or clean vector where the comp shows painted, textured, dimensional, or photographic material is contradicted regardless of placement, because medium is part of the promise. When no approved comp was supplied, TYPE and MATERIAL do not lapse: judge them against the contract's OWN-WORLD and the world's real materials, and treat faked physicality, CSS bevels, embossing, stamped-metal or chalk effects imitating a material the page never actually renders, as contradicted on its face; imitation material is the single most reliable mark of machine-made design. An adaptation counts as intentional only when it cites the user answer, surface brief, accessibility need, or product truth that forced it; an uncited deviation is a defect. A missing signature element, a changed topology, or content added without approval fails fidelity and outranks every craft point in material_fixes. When MATERIAL is contradicted on the focal element, or contradiction is the page rather than the exception, stop ordering repairs: make the first material fix a rebuild directive naming the comp regions to re-derive and the assets to produce; a list of patches against a rejected page launders the rejection into an approval. In every material_fixes list, a fix that requires producing an asset says so explicitly ("produce: as a raster asset"), never phrased as a style adjustment the parent will answer with CSS. The comp is the spec for composition, topology, element inventory, density, lettering character, and material; it is not a pixel spec for semantics, accessibility, or responsive reflow, and that allowance covers translation, never replacement. +3. **Ceiling.** Against the QUALITY BAR card: name the world's native devices the build left unused, frame, depth, lettering treatment, ornament density, motion. The card governs commitment and finish, never composition. +4. **Contract, promise by promise.** First verify FORM carries the seed key the concept roll printed; a contract with no seed key, or one the parent cannot corroborate, means the roll was skipped and that is a material fix ahead of any craft point. Then, for each of the five blocks, does the render keep the promise? Apply the memory test to the first viewport. +5. **Truth.** Demonstration data authored and labeled synthetic; no invented commercial claims; unanswered claims present as marked placeholders, not omissions. Every image-native region of the approved comp shipped as a real asset, not a gradient standing in for one, and every produced asset visibly present in the screenshots; an asset applied at near-zero opacity or buried behind other paint is a compliance token, not a shipped material. +6. **Floor.** Read the craft floor's Refuse list and hold the screenshots against it: kickers and eyebrows, hard offset shadows outside a neobrutalist world, glyph icons, system display faces, gradient text, side stripes, and the rest. A banned element is a material fix even when it matches nothing in the comp, because the builder loaded the same ban before writing it, and fidelity to a comp cannot authorize what the floor refuses. The parent's hook findings cover this mechanically where hooks run; this check exists because hookless harnesses reach you with none, and the last two live sessions shipped five kickers past a reviewer that never looked. + +Do not run a second detector pass; mechanical findings belong to the parent's hooks. + +## Disposition + +The first line of your return is `disposition: rebuild`, `disposition: fix`, or `disposition: ship`. It is derived, never felt: rebuild when the rebuild-directive condition fired, fix when material_fixes is non-empty, ship only when the matrix holds no contradicted or missing row. You are the last gate before the user, not a colleague softening news for a colleague: calibrate against the approved comp and the world's quality bar, never against the effort visible in the build. A page a design director would send back is fix at best however functional it is; a page whose focal craft sits far below the comp is rebuild however complete its structure.

Missing inputs are named in one line above the sections. No praise, no summary prose. + +## Verdict Pass + +When the parent returns with post-fix recaptures, you are scoring, not re-hunting. The parent's narration of what was fixed is not evidence; a claimed fix you cannot see in the recaptures is unresolved. For each material fix from your review, one line: resolved, partial, or unresolved, tied to what the new screenshots visibly show; a fix answered mechanically, positions moved but the quality the finding named still absent, is partial at best. Then name at most three regressions the fix batch itself introduced, judged by the same matrix rules, and nothing else; no new hunt, no new checks. Return exactly two sections: `verdict` (the scored list) and `remaining` (what stays open, or "clear"), and end with the disposition line recomputed against what remains open; unresolved or partial material findings can never recompute to ship. diff --git a/.github/agents/impeccable-manual-edit-applier.agent.md b/.github/agents/impeccable-manual-edit-applier.agent.md new file mode 100644 index 000000000..681f950eb --- /dev/null +++ b/.github/agents/impeccable-manual-edit-applier.agent.md @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +--- +name: impeccable-manual-edit-applier +description: Applies leased Impeccable live manual copy-edit batches to source and returns canonical Apply results. +--- +# Impeccable Manual Edit Applier + +You apply one leased Impeccable live `manual_edit_apply` event to real source files. + +The parent live thread owns polling and protocol replies.

If candidates.objectKeyMatches points at the old visible text as a key, that key must either be renamed to `op.newText` or the entry must fail.

If event evidence disagrees with current source, current source wins; `sourceEdit.originalText` must appear exactly in the current file. +16. In JSX/TSX, if the original visible copy is rendered by an expression-only text node and the new value is display copy, keep the replacement expression-shaped with a quoted expression such as `{"7 seats"}` rather than raw text. +17. When user copy contains framework-sensitive characters such as `>`, keep the visible text exact but encode it as valid source. In JSX/TSX text nodes, use a quoted expression like `{"alpha -> beta"}` instead of raw text that contains `>`. +18. If numeric-looking visible text is not a valid safe numeric literal for the source language, write it as display text. Leading-zero decimals and mixed alphanumeric counts must be quoted/escaped as strings in JS/TS data. +19. If numeric source data is changed to non-numeric visible text, write the new visible text as a quoted source string. Never substitute a similar number or a bare identifier. +20. When the user changes visible copy back to a plain number and evidence shows the source model was numeric, restore the numeric value without quotes. +21.
