 The detector catches 61 deterministic issues across AI slop (side-tab borders, purple gradients, bounce easing, dark glows) and general design quality (line length, cramped padding, small touch targets, skipped headings, and more).
 
+Human-readable findings are diagnostics written to stderr, so redirect them with `2> findings.txt`. Use `--json` for machine-readable results on stdout. URL scans inspect the rendered DOM, computed layout, and accessible linked stylesheets; browser security still prevents reading cross-origin CSS without CORS. A clean detector run is evidence, not proof of visual or accessibility quality: it does not replace inspecting the rendered experience across relevant viewports.
+
 By default, `detect` respects the same `.impeccable/config.json` and `.impeccable/config.local.json` detector config as the design hook: `detector.ignoreRules`, `detector.ignoreFiles`, `detector.ignoreValues`, and `detector.designSystem.enabled`. Hook lifecycle settings such as `hook.enabled` only affect automatic hook execution.
 
 For a waiver that should travel with one file instead of the repo config, add an inline comment in the file: `<!-- impeccable-disable overused-font: exported brand doc -->`. The marker works in any comment syntax, scopes to the whole file (or one line with `impeccable-disable-line` / `impeccable-disable-next-line`), and is bypassed by `--no-inline-ignores` or `--no-config`.
