Documents `bun run test:live-e2e`, the IMPECCABLE_E2E_ONLY scope env var,
the IMPECCABLE_E2E_DEBUG diagnostic flag, the one-time
`npx playwright install chromium` setup, and why the suite is kept off
the default `bun run test` path.

Runtime fix in live-browser.js: the 2s static-server fallback in handleAccept
now swaps the outer wrapper with the `[data-impeccable-variant="N"]` div itself
(+ display:contents), matching what live-accept.mjs writes to disk. Scope rules
anchored on the variant attribute keep matching on the non-HMR path, so the
accepted design no longer flashes unstyled until reload. Propagated to all
harness script copies.
/designing:
- §03 Polish redesigned as drenched magenta masthead: commands live in the band,
three title/description columns beneath on cream.
- §04 Maintain redesigned as architectural poster diptych: extract + document
vizzes become the hero element, caption below.
- §05 Interop section removed.
- §05 (was §06) "Pick a register" renamed to "Brand, or product." with a
two-lane hairline-divided layout and an auto-selected framing in the sub.
Live mode status: BETA → ALPHA across the periodic table, magazine spread,
and docs callout, reflecting real-world-testing readiness.
Skill bootstrap: removed the `<post-update-cleanup>` block from source/SKILL.md
(the source repo is the origin; running cleanup-deprecated here would touch
legitimate source). CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md now document the skip.

Pre-prod — no need to carry forward the backwards-compat line in
SKILL.md or the historical note in CLAUDE.md. Existing PRODUCT.md
files with `register: editorial` will hit the "missing field" branch
and get re-inferred from content, which is fine for the tiny number
of projects that touched it during iteration.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
"editorial" was doing semantic double duty — naming the strategic
distinction (design IS the product) AND a specific visual aesthetic
(editorial magazines, broadsheets, serif display, italic drop caps).
Models pattern-matched the aesthetic and defaulted to it on every
brand brief, producing magazine-shaped landing pages for hiking
brands, tech tools, restaurants.
The register name now describes the SURFACE KIND, not an aesthetic.
Brand covers every visual lane — tech-minimal, luxury, editorial-
magazine, consumer-warm, brutalist-grid, hand-drawn — each with
legitimate voice within the register.
## Changes
- `reference/editorial.md` → `reference/brand.md`. Content rewritten:
broadened typography guidance (pairing shapes per brand genre,
single-family commitment is valid), broadened color references
(Stripe, Vercel, Liquid Death alongside Klim, Condé Nast), added
a second slop test ("name your aesthetic lane") to prevent drift
into editorial-magazine defaults, added brand ban against the
drift itself.
- SKILL.md: register names brand/product; load brand.md.
- teach.md: register values brand/product; signals renamed; example
principles no longer use "editorial over marketing" phrasing.
- Six sub-commands (animate/bolder/colorize/delight/layout/quieter):
per-register subsections flipped Editorial: → Brand:.
- product.md: cross-references updated.
- live.md: register reference updated; density axis no longer uses
"editorial" as a synonym for "dense".
- typeset.md: per-register paragraph generalised beyond serif+sans
pairing.
- CLAUDE.md: architecture section rewritten; kept "editorial
wrapper" content-authoring term as-is (different meaning).
## Legacy handling
- `editorial` is accepted as an alias for `brand` on PRODUCT.md's
register field — agents treat it as `brand` without asking.
- Documented in SKILL.md setup section and CLAUDE.md.
## What's unchanged
- Register identification priority (task cue → surface → PRODUCT.md).
- Permission structure (brand can go big, product stays restrained).
- Shared design laws, absolute bans, color strategy vocabulary.
- Framework fixtures and tests.
Full build clean, test suite passes.

Splits the skill into two register references (editorial, product),
replaces category-based theme selection with a forced physical-scene
inference, and introduces a four-step color strategy axis (Restrained /
Committed / Full palette / Drenched) with editorial permission for the
bold three.
Adds a seed mode to /impeccable document for pre-implementation
projects, updates /impeccable teach Step 5 to offer the seed path, and
grows /impeccable shape with Design Direction + Scope intake
(fidelity, breadth, interactivity, time). Extends live-mode variant
distinctness to forbid three variants sharing theme and dominant hue.
Also drops the anti-pattern validator coupling, consolidates a11y into
audit.md, and updates CLAUDE.md with the register architecture.

New feature: /impeccable live starts an interactive visual iteration server.
Users select elements in the browser, pick a design action (bolder, quieter,
etc.), and the agent generates HTML+CSS variants written directly to source.
The dev server's HMR hot-swaps them in, and MutationObserver progressively
reveals each variant in a cycler UI as it arrives.
Architecture:
- src/live/server.mjs: HTTP + WebSocket server with session token auth,
long-poll /poll endpoint for the agent, WebSocket for the browser
- src/live/poll.mjs: CLI client (npx impeccable poll / poll --reply)
- src/live/browser.js: element picker with keyboard nav (arrows=siblings,
shift+arrows=parent/child), action panel (12 commands, freeform input,
variant count), variant cycler with progressive reveal via MutationObserver
- src/live/protocol.mjs: shared message types and event validation
- source/skills/impeccable/reference/live.md: agent loop instructions
(inject script, poll loop, generate variants, accept/discard, cleanup)
CLI changes:
- bin/cli.js: added "poll" top-level command
- src/detect-antipatterns.mjs: liveCli() now delegates to src/live/server.mjs
- package.json: added ws dependency
Registered /impeccable live as command #22 across all standard locations.

Pre-3.0, onboard was folded into /harden when we were trying to reduce
namespace pollution. In the single-skill model that tradeoff is gone,
so the weakest of the old merges is the first to undo.
Harden and onboard live in different mental modes. Harden is defensive
(edge cases, i18n, overflow, errors). Onboard is activation (first-run
flows, empty states as CTAs, progressive disclosure). A user thinking
"design the onboarding flow" was never going to type /impeccable harden.
Changes:
- New reference file at source/skills/impeccable/reference/onboard.md,
restored from the pre-merge version in git history rather than the
condensed 33-line summary that was in harden.md.
- Removed the "Onboarding & First-Run Experience" section from
source/skills/impeccable/reference/harden.md.
- Updated harden description/editorial/process-steps to drop onboarding
keywords; split commandProcessSteps so harden stays focused on
production resilience and onboard gets its own phases.
- Registered onboard in: SKILL.md description + command menu + router
table, command-metadata.json, IMPECCABLE_SUB_COMMANDS, pin.mjs
VALID_COMMANDS, SKILL_CATEGORIES, COMMAND_RELATIONSHIPS, data.js
commandCategories + commandProcessSteps + commandRelationships,
framework-viz commandSymbols + commandNumbers.
- Reused the existing content/site/skills/onboard.md editorial wrapper
(it was orphaned by the merge but never deleted), updating it to use
/impeccable onboard.
- Bumped all user-facing count references 20 -> 21: public/index.html,
CLAUDE.md, README.md, NOTICE.md, plugin.json, marketplace.json,
sitemap.xml, build-sub-pages.js.
- Harness dir audit.md and critique.md changes are the
{{available_commands}} placeholder expanding to include onboard.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Bump skills plugin version 2.1.1 -> 3.0.0 (plugin.json, marketplace.json,
harness SKILL.md files). CLI and Chrome extension unchanged.
- Remove prefixed universal zip bundle and all related code:
factory.js prefix/outputSuffix options, zip.js variant pass, utils.js
prefixSkillReferences, the "universal-prefixed" entry in
download-providers.js, and the matching test suite in utils.test.js.
- Redesign Get Started step 1 "Install the skill and CLI": two terminal
rows (npx skills + npm i -g impeccable) with paired notes, drop the
Recommended badge.
- Collapse "Other install methods" back into a <details> element so the
primary install path is the first thing users see.
- Simplify step 3 to "Add the Chrome extension": remove the CLI tool
block (now in step 1), use standard .btn .btn-primary for the CTA so
it matches other primary buttons (square corners, accent slide-up
hover), and lay out the preview screenshot next to the button instead
of stacked so the screenshot no longer dominates vertical space.
- CLAUDE.md: rewrite with v3.0 architecture, the "no em dash also means
no --" rule, the harness-dirs-are-tracked gotcha, the named-export
test-spy warning, and the evals inline-skill.ts sync note.
- AGENTS.md, DEVELOP.md: drop prefixed variant references.

Biggest change in a while. Users previously had 18 standalone skill
entries cluttering their /menu; now they have one entry (/impeccable)
that routes to 20 specialized commands via argument dispatch. The pin
mechanism (/impeccable pin audit) restores standalone shortcuts on
demand for commands users hit all the time.
## Architecture
- Single /impeccable skill with command router section in SKILL.md
- 20 commands served via reference files under source/skills/impeccable/reference/
- /impeccable pin <command> creates a lightweight redirect shim so users
who prefer /audit, /polish, etc. can still have them
- Context gathering (teach) auto-runs on first use
- command-metadata.json is the single source of truth for command
descriptions, argument hints, and relationships
## Site rewrite
- Docs URL: /skills renamed to /docs (with /skills permanent redirects)
- Homepage hero frames Impeccable as "one skill with 20 commands"
- "Get Started" split into 50/50 install + how-to-use with editorial
numbered steps, /impeccable shown as the home command with three modes
- New /docs overview: home command hero card + dense category rows
matching the old cheatsheet density, with leads-to/pairs-with/
combines-with relationship metadata served from a shared source
- Cheatsheet merged into /docs, /cheatsheet redirects
- Magazine spread and mobile cards show /impeccable as a stacked
namespace label above the command name at full display size
- Periodic table updated with craft/teach/extract as first-class cells
- Skill detail pages generate from reference files, with an editorial
wrapper per command for tagline + body
- Tutorials and anti-patterns pages updated to use /impeccable <cmd>
## Build system
- Dead code removed (scripts/lib/transformers/shared.js)
- Build log wording fixed ("1 skill" not "1 skills (1 user-invocable)")
- generateApiData fallback branch removed (throws loudly if metadata
missing instead of silently degrading)
- Commands API includes editorial tagline alongside the long description;
UI surfaces prefer tagline for human display, description for auto-
trigger keyword matching
## Gitignore
- Added .claude/scheduled_tasks.lock, .claude/settings.local.json to
ignore list (local Claude Code state that should not be tracked).
- Harness skill directories (.claude/skills/, .agents/skills/, etc.)
remain tracked by design: npx skills reads them from this repo at
install time and they enable clean submodule use.

CLI changes (bumped to v2.1.2, skills stay at v2.1.1):
- `npx impeccable skills check` compares local skill files against
the latest bundle and reports whether updates are available
- `npx impeccable skills update` now downloads the bundle first,
compares hashes, and skips with "up to date" if nothing changed
- Removed the local-modifications warning (was confusing for users
who installed via npx skills add)
Versioning:
- CLI (package.json), skills (plugin.json/marketplace.json), and
Chrome extension (manifest.json) are now versioned independently
- CLAUDE.md updated to document when to bump each

Tailwind was wired into the build but the project didn't actually use it:
no @tailwind/@theme/@apply directives in source CSS, no utility classes
in any HTML or JS, no tailwindcss dependency in package.json, and no
HTML page linked to the compiled styles.css output.
Bun's HTML loader already handles main.css's @import chain transparently
in both `bun run dev` and `bun run build`. Removing the Tailwind step:
- Deletes buildTailwindCSS() from scripts/build.js (and the now-unused
execSync import)
- Removes public/css/styles.css (dead compiled output that nothing read)
- Updates CLAUDE.md to drop the "must rebuild Tailwind after CSS edits"
instruction
Verified: `bun run build` produces the same 104 KB CSS chunk linked from
index.html via Bun's HTML loader. No more rebuild step after CSS edits.
Merges the impeccable-detect CLI repo (pbakaus/impeccable-cli@831a6cc)
into this repo. The BSL-1.1 license that motivated the split is gone;
everything is now Apache 2.0.
- Add bin/, src/, detection tests and fixtures from CLI repo
- Merge package.json: name → "impeccable", add bin/exports/files fields
- Internal refs now read from local src/ instead of node_modules/
- Update SPDX headers, NOTICE.md, CLAUDE.md, FAQ, npm README
- Add prepack/postpack scripts for CLI-focused README on npm
- Remove terminal license labels (no longer needed)

Apache 2.0: skills, prompts, website, and build system.
- Remove bin/ (CLI moved to CLI repo)
- Remove README.npm.md (moved to CLI repo)
- Remove @impeccable/detect dependency, add impeccable dependency
- Set package.json to private (no longer published to npm)
- Update all references from @impeccable/detect to impeccable

Add interactive confirmation when scanning directories with 50+ files,
warning about jsdom overhead for HTML files and suggesting --fast or
targeting a subdirectory. Auto-skipped in non-TTY (piped/CI) contexts.
Update CLAUDE.md and README.md to use node/npx instead of bun for the
detect CLI, since bun's jsdom is extremely slow and causes scans to hang.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Rename bin/impeccable.mjs to bin/impeccable (npm rejects .mjs in bin)
- Shebang: #!/usr/bin/env node (works without Bun)
- Add README.npm.md with CLI-focused docs, swapped in during publish
- Build browser script to source/ dir so URL scanning works in npm pkg
- Include browser script in files field
- Move website-only deps (archiver, motion, playwright) to devDependencies
- jsdom as dependency, puppeteer as optionalDependency
- Bump version to 2.0.1 across package.json, plugin.json, marketplace.json

Merges 54 commits from main including factory-based build system, Trae support,
improved skill descriptions, and security hardening. Consolidates the critique
skill to combine v2.0's sub-agent architecture and automated anti-pattern
detection with main's Nielsen heuristics scoring, cognitive load assessment,
persona-based testing, and structured follow-up workflow. Fixes browser detector
build to create target directory after skill sync.
