* Route the direction hand by verdict, add the pick card, enforce salience parity
The decision round previously rendered every dealt challenger as an equal
full card whatever the weighing said, so a world that fused poorly (an
underwater world dealt to a flower shop) sat at the same visual weight as
the assigned direction, and concept-level fusion had no surviving output.
Three changes, all presentation-layer; the dice, the assignment, and the
two-axis weighing are untouched:
- Verdict routing: the weighing closes with wins / competitive / declined
per challenger, decided before any borrowing. Declined challengers render
demoted (narrow, quiet, catalog art as a labeled thumb, "Adopt anyway"),
reordered to the end of the deck by the page itself, still adoptable,
never silently dropped. Donations return as named "raised by" lines on
the assigned card: a declined challenger donates ambition and system
discipline, never its clothes.
- The pick card: one card for the model's top-ranked grounded candidate
when the dice assigned another, kicker MY PICK, honest familiarity risk
on its face. One card, never a ranked list, never the lead position; the
anti-menu rule survives with exactly this carve-out.
- Salience parity: a card's imagery weight is capped by the assigned
card's. With a text-only assigned card (no image generation in the
harness), full-bleed catalog heroes demote to labeled thumbs, so what
looks important is the verdict's call, never rendering luck.
serve-question payload gains additive fields (verdict, kept, raised); old
payloads render unchanged. concept-seed's rendered instructions carry the
verdict/donation contract and the pick-card carve-out. Covered by two
Playwright tests in the new-work e2e suite (verdict routing + parity).
Design exploration and rationale were worked through with the maintainer;
research grounding is impeccable.style/research lessons 3-5.

* Add Safer/Bolder re-roll registers to the direction round
The re-roll gains the user's steering wheel on the familiar-to-bold axis.
The decision page renders two register buttons beside the plain re-roll
(payload: reroll: { registers: ["safer", "bolder"] }; booleans still work),
the answer carries the chosen register, and concept-seed gains --register.
The design constraint that shaped the implementation: a register changes
only what a round INSTRUCTS, never what it DEALT. The same key and reroll
count reproduce the same deal whatever the register, so the exclusion chain
never forks and the reproduction contract holds with no API change.
- bolder: the dealt foreign forms become the whole hand, every challenger a
full card; the first-dealt challenger leads (assignment by deal order, so
the dice still choose). The pick card sits out; the canon stays.
- safer: the round's dealt hand is spent unseen and stays excluded; the
model presents its remaining conventional grounded candidates (at most
three) plus the canon executed against named competitors. This is the one
sanctioned lineup of the model's own ranked list, existing only by
explicit user request. Works degraded (needs no catalog); bolder degrades
to a plain grounded round, disclosed.
Registers are user steering, never the model's to pre-select. Covered by a
concept-seed unit test (same-deal invariant, validation) and a Playwright
test (button, answer field, REGISTER directive).

* Add the execution-contract round: comp-led or code-led, chosen after the direction
The build previously went comp-led for everyone, silently: a generated comp
led and the build chased it, which produces the boldest compositions and
also the measured worst-of-both-worlds failure (ambitious design landed
poorly, no motion, fix rounds after). Models already defect from it by
quietly skipping comp generation, which is unsanctioned code-led with no
contract to catch it. This makes the fork explicit and both paths
defection-proof:
- Comp-led: the comp is law and non-optional once chosen; visualize.md and
the comp-is-king build phases run as today.
- Code-led: no comp of this page, skipped by contract rather than drift.
The QUALITY BAR boards still calibrate finish, and the ambition moves
into the written direction contract (FIRST VIEWPORT plus a named
signature interaction and motion grammar), audited by the finish
reviewer in behavior. Not a discount on commitment.
Placement: a second round on the same open table, right after the
direction lands. Sketches stay in the direction round (they pick the
world); comps are what code-led skips (they bind the composition). The
chosen world sets the default lead; the user flips freely; a standing
preference recorded in PRODUCT.md skips the round on later surfaces; with
no image generation there is no fork, code-led is the only path.
Mechanism: serve-question gains payload-level followup: true, which keeps
the detached server alive after a pick (exactly like re-roll), swaps the
page to the loading hand instead of goodbye, marks the answer with
followup: true so --wait keeps the table, and prints a FOLLOWUP OPEN
directive telling the agent to deliver the next round via --update.
Covered by a Playwright test driving the full two-round flow.

* fix: address PR review bot findings
- Degraded safer register no longer contradicts itself (greptile,
Copilot, cursor): the degraded template previously said "the assigned
index is suspended; the user picks" and then emitted ASSIGNED INDEX,
the mandatory build instruction, and the restated footer anyway. The
degraded safer path now suppresses the assignment machinery entirely,
matching the non-degraded safer round, and restates the user-picks
behavior for truncated readers instead.
- A declined card's declared sketch no longer renders a full media face
(Copilot): the renderer ignores sketch slots on declined cards
outright, so a stray sketch cannot buy back the salience the verdict
took away.
- Bolder rounds no longer carry the generic weighing instruction
(cursor): it measures against the assigned grounded direction, which
the bolder register suspends; a leader-relative variant weighs the
fused challengers against the first-dealt leader instead.
All three pinned by new assertions in tests/concept-seed.test.mjs and
tests/new-work-e2e.test.mjs.

* fix: followup never arms the loading hand in blocking serve mode
cursor[bot] caught a client/server disagreement: the page interpolated its
FOLLOWUP constant from the payload alone, so a followup: true payload served
in blocking mode (no --start) would leave the browser on a loading hand that
nothing resolves, since a blocking server exits on any pick and has no
update channel. The page constant is now armed only when the server is
detached, blocking rounds get the goodbye screen as before, and new-work.md
states that followup belongs only on a detached round; blocking and
structured-tool channels run the build-path round as its own second
question. Pinned in tests/serve-question.test.mjs.

* Add card-kind choice telemetry and the bolder routing disambiguation
The choice ping previously fired only when a dealt catalog challenger won,
so pick-share and canon-share had no denominator and the decision page's
new spectrum could not be measured. The ping now fires once per resolved
attended round on API-dealt rolls: --kind names which card class won
(assigned / pick / challenger / canon), --chosen carries the catalog id
only when a dealt challenger won, and --register rides along when the
round came from a steered hand. Grounded candidates' names never leave the
machine (the ping carries the kind alone), the legacy id-only shape stays
valid, and DO_NOT_TRACK / IMPECCABLE_NO_TELEMETRY still disable the ping
entirely. The seed's TELEMETRY block teaches the new invocation.
Also the naming-collision guard: "bolder" said while a direction round is
open routes to the Bolder hand register, never the bolder refinement
command; one line each in bolder.md and new-work.md.
The /api/chosen field additions land in a sister impeccable-site PR; the
API ignores unknown fields meanwhile, so this is safe to ship first.

* fix: ping test survives a DO_NOT_TRACK shell
cursor[bot]: the pingChosen unit test cleared only IMPECCABLE_NO_TELEMETRY,

The list of Live chrome surfaces was inlined into live-browser.js as a
function-scope const when live/ui-core.mjs was deleted for having zero
in-repo references. It had one out-of-repo reference. The private
impeccable-site repo imports it at build time: its Live UI lab must hold
a snapshot for every surface Live defines, and the site build fails with
the surface name when one is missing. Inlining put the list out of reach
of every Node importer, so the site had to regex it back out of the
browser script, and the guard only kept passing because the site's
materialized copy of skill/ was stale.
A guard that reads a list the site itself maintains guards nothing, so
the fix is a real export rather than a better parser.
skill/scripts/live/ui-surfaces.mjs is now the single definition. The
browser-runtime constraint is unchanged and satisfied the same way the
command palette already solves it: live-browser.js is served raw and
injected as a classic <script>, so it cannot import an ES module. The
/live.js assembler serializes the module into
window.__IMPECCABLE_LIVE_UI_SURFACES__ in the prelude it already writes
for the token, port and vocabulary, and live-browser.js reads the global.
assembleLiveBrowserScript defaults the value from the module rather than
taking it from live-server.mjs, so the bundle carries the canonical
inventory by construction instead of by a caller remembering to pass it.
The emitted inventory is byte-identical to the inlined one.
tests/live-ui-surfaces.test.mjs pins both halves of the seam: the module
is the definition (live-browser.js must not redeclare it), the prefix the
module builds ids from matches the PREFIX live-browser.js hardcodes, and
the assembled bundle still carries the list. live-server.test.mjs gets
the matching integration check against a served /live.js.
One existing assertion changed. live-browser-regression.test.mjs checked
that the steer Send control is registered as live chrome by matching the
text of the inline literal's last line. That encoded where the list was
written, not what it contains; it now asserts membership in the imported
LIVE_UI_COMPONENT_IDS, which is the behaviour it was after.
Verified with the full default suite plus a live-e2e fixture run
(vite8-react-modal), so the overlay is exercised end to end in a browser.

A 3-star held two tickets and a 1-star held none. On a pool this size that is
not a nudge, it is the shape of the draw. Measured against the live catalog:
3-star worlds absorbed 57% of the graphic draw from 65 of 163 eligible worlds,
46% of atmosphere from 13 of 43, and 75% of interaction from 15 of 25. The
reviewer's report that the same worlds keep returning is exactly what a rating
multiplier does to a corpus whose thinnest tier holds 25 worlds.
Now a 3-star draws level with a 2-star, and a 1-star draws at half rather than
not at all. Excluding a marginal keep made rating do a job breadth already does
properly: breadth still removes a niche world from the pool entirely, which is
the honest way to say "too narrow to challenge an arbitrary build", while a
1-star records "unexceptional" and is still worth showing sometimes.
Effect on the same catalog: the 3-star share falls to 39% on graphic, 30% on
atmosphere and 60% on interaction. That last one is no longer a weighting
artefact, it is simply what the tier contains, since 15 of its 25 eligible
worlds are rated 3.
Compositions get the same treatment; the two ticket functions had the identical
shape and no reason to disagree. Both tests asserted the old policy directly
and now assert the new one.

* Gracefully handle the no-image decision page
Tested the new-work path without image generation and fixed what broke:
- A text-only card's back face (First viewport, The case) was unreachable:
the Details flip chip only rendered inside the media block. Cards with no
imagery now render their full read on the front and skip the back face.
- A hero/board that fails to load (retired catalog URL, offline shell) sat
as a dark void with a zoom cursor. The slot now collapses to a field
painted from the card's own palette with an "artwork unavailable" pill;
broken inspiration PIPs remove themselves.
- Sketchless catalog art rendered unlabeled as the card's face, reading as
the promise of the build. It now carries the same "inspiration" label and
hover title the PIP uses.
- The --schema example pointed at catalog URLs that 404 (missing family
prefix); updated to the real asset paths and noted the text-only front
behavior in the schema prose.
Extends e2e test (e) with the front-read and label assertions and adds
test (f) for the broken-image fallback.

* fix: address PR review bot findings
- cursor[bot]: the unavailable-art scrim painted over the flip chips and
swallowed their clicks; it now passes pointer events through and the
chips render above it.
- Copilot: a palette-less card whose art failed still read as a dark void
and kept the stale Inspiration tooltip; the slot now falls back to the
graphite field in CSS and the tooltip is removed with the art.
Test (f) now covers both: a broken card with back facts must still flip
via Details, and a palette-less broken card gets the labeled fallback.

* test: harden the test strategy (triggers, runner speed, release guards)
Follow-ups from an end-to-end testing strategy review:
- Suite triggers are now auto-generated from each suite's own file list,
so change-based CI can never miss a test file again (four files were
unreachable by their own edits, and tests/lib/detector-bundle.test.js
triggered core while running in detector). Two new meta-tests pin the
invariant. Hand-written trigger patterns now carry only source paths
and fixture dirs; palette dropped from the live triggers since no
suite tests it.
- The node runner batches all files into one node --test invocation at
concurrency 4 instead of spawning per file. Default suite drops from
~159s to ~100s; the live suite soaked clean three times.
- scripts/release.mjs gets its first tests: 12 scenarios spawning the
real script inside a disposable git repo with a local bare origin,
covering every refusal guard plus notes/tweet rendering, all under
--dry-run.
- skill/scripts/live/ui-core.mjs deleted: zero references repo-wide,
superseded by the July live rewrite, yet still shipping to users.
cli/lib/download-providers.js annotated with its cross-repo consumers
(impeccable-site Pages Functions) so it is not mistaken for dead code.
- CLAUDE.md gains an area-to-suite table for the opt-in suites a change
owes; AGENTS.md syncs the plugin-e2e commands and obligations.

Volta's Windows shims exec through `cmd /C`, which re-parses the argument
list, so the `>=` inside the probe's `node -e` payload was read as output
redirection. The command died with "The filename, directory name, or volume
label syntax is incorrect" before node started, the guard read that as a
missing runtime, and the hook it exists to protect was disabled on every
PostToolUse and Stop. A user on a supported Node 24 got a one-time notice
telling them to install Node 22, then silence.
Clamping with Math.min is the same floor test in the same ES5-only syntax,
with no character cmd.exe can claim. Verified through the Volta shim on Node
24.16.0 and 22.18.0 (exit 0) and against a real Node 20.6.1 binary (exit 1),

* Fix: unescape YAML quote escapes in DESIGN.md frontmatter scalars (#428)
parseScalar() stripped a double-quoted scalar's outer quotes without
processing the backslash escapes inside, so a font stack that quotes a
multi-word family the CSS way, e.g.
fontFamily: "\"IBM Plex Sans\", system-ui, sans-serif"
reached allowedFonts as '\"ibm plex sans' and design-system-font flagged
fonts DESIGN.md declares. Also collapses the doubled-quote escape in
single-quoted scalars and keeps a lone quote literal instead of slicing
it to an empty string. Applied to both copies of the parser
(cli/engine/design-system.mjs and skill/scripts/lib/design-parser.mjs).

at a time. Regression coverage for both named forms.

* test: guard the plugin loader contract that PR #494 exposed
The agents manifest key shipped for months and silently loaded zero of

- scripts/lib/validate-plugin-manifest.js pins the verified loader
contract (KNOWN_LOADER_KEYS allowlist, no agents key, trailing-slash
skills path from issue #86, every skill/agents/*.md shipped in
plugin/agents/), unit-tested in tests/validate-plugin-manifest.test.js
including a check of the real committed subtree.
- The same check gates bun run build next to the version-drift guard.
- tests/plugin-e2e.test.mjs installs the committed ./plugin subtree into
a real Claude Code (sandboxed via CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR in a temp dir) and
asserts the component inventory: skill parses, all agents visible,
hooks discovered. In the default suite; runs in about a second and
skips cleanly when the claude CLI is absent, so CI is unaffected.
All three failed against the pre-#494 tree for the shipped reason
(Agents 0 of 4) and pass against current main.

hook-before-edit.mjs kept its own string-based isInsideProject; it now

apply one containment semantic, symlink canonicalization included.
Because the before-edit hook gates proposed Writes whose target does
not exist yet, canonicalPath now resolves the nearest existing
ancestor and re-appends the remainder instead of falling back to the
raw resolved path — a new file under a symlinked root compares equal
to its canonical project.

The per-edit and Stop deep passes gated on sensitive paths, generated
paths, extension, config ignores, and size, but never on containment.
Any file the session touched outside the project (harness scratchpad
dirs under the system temp root, sibling checkouts) was scanned and
judged against THIS project's config and DESIGN.md palette, producing
design-system findings that are wrong by construction.
Both loops now check isScanTargetInsideProject() (audit reason:
outside-project), matching the gate hook-before-edit.mjs already had.
Paths are canonicalized so a symlinked root doesn't split the
comparison. The Stop pass re-checks containment itself because caches
written by older hook versions can still list out-of-project paths.
Umbrella-dir launches (issue #305) are unaffected: their projectCwd
resolves to the edited file's own project root, so containment holds.

- tokenless remote origins get no ACAO on any route, token'd or not
- a non-loopback origin with the valid token is reflected, with
Vary: Origin, on both the real request and its OPTIONS preflight
- the /manual-edit-stash source assertion tracks the token-bearing URL

Codex's own post-mortem of the second hamster-wheel session: it loaded
the kicker ban, shipped five kickers anyway, and then the reviewer and
documenter 'compounded it by accepting, and even canonizing, the
invented label style'. Nothing downstream of the builder ever re-read
the floor.
The reviewer gains check 6, Floor: read craft-floor.md (now the one
skill reference it may read, passed in its inputs) and hold the
screenshots against the Refuse list; a banned element is a material fix
even when it matches nothing in the comp, because fidelity cannot
authorize what the floor refuses. The documenter gains the mirror rule:
a floor refusal lands in its not-canonized line as a carried defect,
never in DESIGN.md as a rule future surfaces inherit.
Also updates the live-reference contract test to match the applier's
condensed no-server sentence, which still carries the same guarantee.

Paul's codex build carried an element literally named class="kicker"
and the detector returned one finding. Two independent blind spots:
- The linked stylesheet was styles.css?v=3, and the href resolved as a
literal path with the query string in it, so the whole sheet was
invisible to every element-level check: 1 finding with the link, 18
with the CSS inlined. Hrefs now strip query and hash before resolving.
- The kicker gate demanded letter-spacing >= max(1px, 0.08 * size). The
wild's most common recipe, 0.08em at 12px, computes to 0.973px and
lost to the absolute floor by a fraction. The floor is now purely
proportional (0.06 * size), with a fixture case pinning the exact
shape that slipped through.
With both fixed, the failed codex build scans at 18 findings including
its numbered section kickers (numbered-section-labels), side-tab
stripe, and grid background.

The area taxonomy was wrong, and wrong in a way worth recording. It was
derived from Mobbin-style categories in the abstract rather than from what
the skill can be asked for, and measured against the catalog most of it
described problems that were not there: onboarding, settings, empty-state and
search each had zero entries.
Reframed against demand instead. A user asks for a docs site, an onboarding
flow, a landing page, or a data table, and those differ in how much of the
product is in play. Register already says what kind of work it is; grain says
how much: product, flow, view, region.
Named grain rather than scope because scope already means direction-or-surface
on every roll and 'surface' is already a register value, so a scope of
'surface' would have collided with both.
Platform is the second axis: web, ios, android. Unlike grain it is a hard
filter with no fallback, because a composition that leans on hover or a
pointer does not degrade on a phone into something slightly worse, it stops
working, and an empty deal is a visible gap where a broken one is not.
Both fields are optional and absence means eligible everywhere, so nothing
needs backfilling and no existing roll changes.
The third piece is the one a trace turned up. Asking for an onboarding flow
resolves to register=operate, grain=flow, and the catalog holds zero
flow-grain compositions, so the top-up would have dealt three plausible
single-screen compositions with no signal that none matched. The model would
have improvised the flow structure while believing it was handed one, which is
the same silent plausibility the axis exists to remove. Selection now returns
a match alongside the picks, and the rendered seed says when the structure is
borrowed and why.
Measured at the time of writing: 137 of 173 approved compositions are view
grain, product grain is empty, flow grain holds one.

Two gaps, both reported from real use. Worlds were drawn with no mode
awareness at all: selectApprovedChallengers never received the mode, so a
build asking for an app UI could draw six worlds that only make sense on a
landing page. And surface alone is too coarse for compositions, because
"operate" spans onboarding, dashboards, editors and settings, so an
onboarding flow could legitimately be dealt a settings composition.
Worlds gain `allowedModes` on the review record, beside breadth and rating,
because it is a reviewer judgment rather than authored content. Absent means
eligible in every mode, so nothing needs backfilling and no existing roll
changes. Applied per tier and skipped where it would empty one, matching how
minRating and strength already degrade. It is a ceiling the reviewer lowers,
not a category they assign: a world is an identity, and identities transfer
across modes further than compositions do.
Compositions gain an optional `area`, one level below surface, with a
taxonomy per surface (COMPOSITION_AREAS). Area is a preference rather than a
filter: a request reorders the ranking to put area matches first and tops up
from the rest of the surface, because the per-area pools are small and
dealing one on-target composition would be worse than three good ones. A
stable partition of an already deterministic ranking stays deterministic.
`--area` on the CLI requires `--mode`, since areas are scoped to a surface,
and is validated against that surface's list so a wrong-surface area fails
loudly instead of silently matching nothing.
Also validated `breadth`, which selection has honoured for a while with
nothing checking it, so a typo read as "general" and quietly returned a
narrow world to the pool.
Four new tests: worlds excluded from a mode stay out, absent allowedModes
stays eligible everywhere, a tier whose every world excludes the mode falls
back instead of starving, and an area-scoped deal prefers its area, tops up
to three, and reproduces from its key.

The data layer has said compositions since the catalog was split, while the
code, the model-facing text, and the UI still said stagings. The rename was
held back by the selection logic existing twice; it exists once now, so this
is one pass instead of two coordinated ones.
Renamed: selectApprovedStagings, selectApprovedStaging, renderStaging, and
the model-facing STAGING GRAMMAR / STAGING CHALLENGERS / FIRST-SURFACE
STAGING INPUTS headings. The block that introduces them now states what
they are for rather than only what they are not: what is the cleverest way
to present, organize, or make interactive the problem in front of you.
Three places keep the old word on purpose:
- The rank salt, `${scope}:${key}:staging`. It is hash input, so renaming
it would re-deal every roll anyone has ever reproduced by key. Verified:
240 seeder rolls and 252 API rolls reproduce exactly.
- `Staging/hierarchy:`, the first composition grammar prefix. Inside a
composition, staging names one of its four aspects, which is a different
word-sense from staging as the name for the whole artifact. It is also a
schema constant that 317 catalog entries are validated against.
- The wire fields. The API keeps emitting `stagings` and `staging` beside
`compositions`, because the wire is the one place a rename cannot be
coordinated with already-installed skills. Clients prefer the new field
and fall back through both old ones.
Separately, WELL_TIERS had two definitions after the extraction.
roll-selection.mjs owns it now and concept-catalog.mjs imports it, in that
direction because concept-catalog reads the filesystem and a Pages Function
must not pull node:fs into its bundle. Imported and re-exported rather than
re-exported alone: a bare `export { X } from` does not bind X locally, and
validateConceptCatalog needs it, which cost one round of red tests.
Dropped concept-catalog's synchronous deterministicRank. Nothing imports it
since selection moved out, and leaving a second ranking implementation
around is how the first drift started.
