Bump plugin + marketplace to 4.0.1 and sync the regenerated provider
output: the guarded hook commands from issue #399 (a missing hook file
exits 0 instead of crashing every turn of a user-level install), the
canon standing exit, the visualize flow, the two shipped subagents, and
the interactive-spine fixes from today's live testing. Detector count
validates at 59 with undersized-ui-text.

Bump skill to 4.0.0 (plugin.json + marketplace.json) and the CLI to
3.3.0 (package.json), then run build:release to regenerate the plugin
subtree and all provider harness output to the new versions.
Skill 4.0.0 ships external-dice direction assignment, the reviewed
world catalog dealt through the roll API with rendered quality-bar
cards, the in-browser serve-question decision page, visualize-before-
build, the rebuilt new-work flow, and the 58-rule detector under hook
enforcement. CLI 3.3.0 grows the deterministic detector to 58 rules
and adds config-declared context roots, per-file rule scoping, and
--target resolution for nested products.

main still carries the site, so every `site/` path resolves to deleted.
`tests/docs-integrity.test.js` goes with it (it imports the site's demo
renderer), and `package.json` keeps main's `@anthropic-ai/sdk` bump while
dropping `@google/genai` and `@paper-design/shaders`, which nothing in the
product layer imports.
Real code merges:
- hook-lib: main's #391 cache fix (sync the remembered set to the live
scan so fixed findings stop being named and a reintroduced one fires
again) now runs on the immediate tier rather than the whole filtered
set. Remembering a deferred finding the per-edit pass never reported
would let the Stop deep pass dedupe it away. main's `maxFileBytes`
ceiling, `cleanAcked` once-per-file ack, and template-extensions
re-export all land alongside the tiering work.
- live-browser: main's `hasParams` gate on the Tune badge, keeping this
branch's `C.ink` badge text so it stays legible on kinpaku gold.
- detect-text: both the block-level codex-grid-background scan and main's
inset-stripe CSS check.
- test-suites: union of both trigger sets and file lists, minus the
site-only entries (`shiki-theme`, `docs-integrity`).
- Two hook tests moved off deferred-tier rules (`overused-font`,
`side-tab`) onto immediate-tier ones. They assert cache bookkeeping,
which the per-edit pass only reaches for the immediate tier.
Also drops the site waivers from `.impeccable/config.json` and stops
`build:browser` recreating a stray `site/` tree just to write a bundle
the other repo builds itself.

Transcript evidence (a12 01-observability): plans commit and deliver on
the axes with contract-strength language (palette, type, even theme
inversion) and stay default on the axis without one (layout gets a
single conventional breath). And plans living in invisible reasoning
means nothing can hold a build to its intent. The direction is now
written as a comment block at the top of the artifact answering: the
concept, the hour-later memory, why not the modal competitor page, the
signature, the first viewport's move. Critics and evals can score
delivery-against-contract; a mood is not an answer.

Paul's a10 review: palettes are refreshed (the palette-exclusivity
line's fingerprint) while layouts stay boring in every version. Same
cure, same shape: the layout has exactly two legitimate sources, the
concept or the content's own structure; the category's habitual
skeleton is neither.

Paul's a11 review: heroes are safe SaaS viewports, everything
predictable; mobile Operate ships dark despite a brief that specifies
outdoors-in-motion use. Decide-then-build now opens with three
one-line directions differing in concept (the instinctive pick that
any studio would reach for is the default wearing your name); the
Operate mode adds: the usage scene is part of the spec, the theme
follows the scene, not the category's habit.

Per Paul: rather than gating a second file, fold what made the craft
path superior into the file both models already read 21/21 through the
gate. new-work.md gains 'Decide, then build' (direction as one
confirmable paragraph; attended pauses, unattended records-and-goes;
codex.md mock flow when image generation exists) and 'Finish like a
studio' (inspect, honest critique, patch, detector). craft becomes a
deprecated alias like teach: invoking it forces attended checkpoints,
nothing else differs; the reference is a redirect stub. codex.md
retargeted. Existing-world feature builds remain governed by the core
floor (unmeasured path, noted in the plan doc).

Invocation A/B on Fable (a9 craft-path vs a9-direct plain): the plain
path scored 38% vs the competitor against the craft path's 50%, and
brief fidelity collapsed to 14% vs bare — the direct path drops asked-
for features that craft's direction step and engineering bar preserve.
Routing now sends any build request through the craft orchestration
unprompted (its gates pause only when a user can respond), and the
craft floor gains a brief-coverage recheck: every requirement the brief
names must exist on the page.

a7 transcript evidence: 01-observability samples drew orange-honey and
green seeds, recited the color-strategy menu, and shipped dark
category-reflex palettes anyway; the model applied the subject's
workmanlike grammar to its own landing page. Two generic lines: the
mode belongs to the surface, not the subject (a landing page for a
dense tool is still Persuade; deciding a page can be plain because its
subject is workmanlike is the category error in reverse), and the
palette has exactly two legitimate sources (seed or the subject's
world; the category's habitual palette is neither).

Fix batch from the visitor-mode bias audit. The skill's four modes
(Persuade / Operate / Read / Experience) now reach the places that were
still hard-coded to a SaaS-marketing default:
- palette.mjs: rewrote 45 seed blurbs in material/world terms. The 29
tech-tool-world moods (13 Linear-indigo variants, 6 Figma-era, 5
climate-tech, 3 fintech, 2 Glossier DTC, incl. seed-201's docs-page
CTA red) lose all company names and product-category words; Aesop
trimmed from 17 blurbs to 4 and Klim from 7 to 4, excess rewritten
as unnamed material terms. Also carries the earlier bg-block rewrite
(brand refs out of the composition doc).
- init.md: register explainer now names the four modes and the family
each belongs to (stored value stays brand/product for compatibility);
Conversion & proof interview + PRODUCT.md section gated to Persuade
surfaces only (Experience/Read get no CTA/belief-ladder/proof).
- critique.md: Nielsen heuristics 7 and 10 may score n/a on Persuade
and Experience surfaces, total renormalized to the applicable max,
snapshot records which were n/a; working-memory examples diversified
beyond dashboard/pricing anatomy.
- Register headers in bolder/delight/quieter/colorize/layout/animate/
typeset renamed from Brand:/Product: to Persuade + Experience: /
Operate + Read:; typeset and layout gain one Read-specific sentence
(steady reading measure; navigable linearity).
- animate.md: plan checklist and implementation order lead with
feedback and transitions; the single entrance moment comes after,
scoped to modes that invite it.
- codex.md: mock inventory says "primary-action treatment (when the
surface has one)" instead of assuming a CTA.
- delight.md: loading/empty-state/console-egg examples diversified
beyond SaaS; streaks/badges scoped to Operate surfaces with
recurring tasks.
- distill.md: step-removal and next-action lines neutralized away
from signup/checkout/CTA vocabulary.
- document.md: canonical button label GET STARTED -> SAVE CHANGES;
signature components gain a non-marketing example.
- antipatterns registry: single-font rule renamed to "Single font
without hierarchy" with a description that permits one family when
weight/size contrast carries hierarchy.
Staged provider copies regenerated via build:skills:release for the
touched files only.

Paul: the mode-governs section was de-biasing a persuade-tinted
playbook rather than writing neutral prose, the exact compensating-
paragraph anti-pattern. Rewritten: the corrective section is gone; the
first-viewport thesis speaks of the concept doing its job (the work,
the product, the content, the task); everything-bold's form list
includes the exact-system form natively; prove-don't-claim covers
content delivering; type guidance is parameterized by mode in one
sentence. Net shorter.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Paul's gallery check of the a8 docs run: skill-on still SaaS-ified the
documentation page. The playbook was persuade-flavored end to end, so
gating a greenfield Read surface through it risked amplifying exactly
that. New leading section: on Operate and Read surfaces boldness means
a committed system (typographic voice, spacing rhythm, one owned
accent, inevitable structure), the thesis is the content or the task
itself, and nothing invented may stand between the visitor and what
they came to do.

The when-to-choose guidance sat inside the file that only loads after
the choice is made. SKILL.md's routing now says it: bare build requests
build directly through the gate and floor; craft is routed only when
named or when the user asks for a guided, checkpointed build. The
Commands row describes craft by its checkpoints. craft.md's intro just
describes the supervised flow it orchestrates.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Stubs removed per Paul (register: values remain harmless family hints;
nothing points at the files anymore). craft.md now opens by defining
itself against plain invocation: a bare build request goes straight
through the gate and the craft floor; craft is the supervised path with
guaranteed checkpoints and the mock pipeline. One shipping-discipline
line joins the core floor (real content, interaction states, respect
the build pipeline) so one-shots inherit the bar that previously lived
only in craft's Step 4.

Answering the obvious question the family-depth framing dodged: with
modes derived per task, files named for the old two-register taxonomy
had no architectural reason to exist. brand.md's surviving depth (lane
test + inverse test, reflex-reject lanes, color discipline, layout
moves, permissions) folds into new-work.md, where all of it belonged:
it is new-identity Persuade/Experience guidance. product.md's content
moves unchanged to operate.md, its true name. Both old files remain as
one-line redirect stubs because register: brand|product in existing
PRODUCT.md files and older links point there. All cross-references
retargeted (SKILL.md modes intro, context.mjs REGISTER hint, live.md,
typeset.md); 85 tests green.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Overlap audit after the new-work split. brand.md slims to family depth
that exists nowhere else (aesthetic-lane tests, named-reference
discipline, brand layout moves and permissions); everything it
duplicated against new-work.md and the core (font procedure, reject
list, color strategy, imagery, scale/leading) is deleted, killing the
two-copies-drift hazard. product.md keeps its Operate depth nearly
intact (it was not duplicated) and gains a scope note covering Read
surfaces. craft.md becomes pure orchestration: gates, foundation,
shape handoff, image-gen flow, engineering bar, iterate, present;
its duplicated design guidance (imagery rules, visual-craft bullets,
mandatory reference reads) is replaced by pointers to SKILL.md's
craft floor and new-work.md.

Architecture per Paul: impeccable is primarily a daily driver on
existing codebases; the always-loaded core should serve that 90% path,
not carry the full generative arsenal on every invocation. SKILL.md now
holds brief-wins, existing-worlds (the headline path), the four visitor
modes, the full craft floor, and a hard gate: new identity work
(greenfield, or a redesign discarding the current look) MUST read
reference/new-work.md before any design decision. That file carries the
generative playbook (seed, subject grounding, plan/self-check/signature,
hero-thesis, everything-bold, prove-don't-claim, color commitment,
calibration, persuade type/imagery). context.mjs enforces the gate
mechanically: NEW_WORK directive when no PRODUCT.md/DESIGN.md exists,
and the old mandatory register-file read is replaced by a REGISTER
family hint. No surfaces: map anywhere; mode is derived per task.
Gate compliance is measurable via skillEvidence.directSkillFileReads.

Field report: impeccable SaaS-ified a developer docs page; the Opus
galleries showed the same on an album page. Root cause: two registers
force every surface into persuade-or-operate grammar. The register
section now names the visitor's mode first (Persuade / Operate / Read /
Experience) with mode-borrowing called out as the canonical failure,
and PRODUCT.md's register field maps as family (brand = Persuade +
Experience, product = Operate + Read) for compatibility. Read mode:
comprehension deliverable, navigable structure, chrome out of the way.
Experience mode: the artifact leads at every screen size.

Paul's Opus gallery observation: every impeccable 05-experimental-album
generation reads decidedly SaaS while frontend-design's open with the
art itself, especially at narrow viewports. Cause: the brand register
prescribed stop-the-scroll/earn-the-click/convert for ALL brand
surfaces. Split the register's deliverable by surface: product/service
pages convert; cultural surfaces (album, portfolio, publication, body
of work) lead with the artifact, recede the interface, and treat
conversion grammar as a category error — the visitor meets the work in
the first viewport at every screen size.

Paul: everything should be bold, nothing bland; bold is neither
decoration nor clutter but commitment to the concept, whose form the
concept chooses (maximal or severely clean, drenched or monochrome,
piercing copy, the product demonstrating itself). Replaces the
'spend your boldness in one place' rule imported from frontend-design,
whose one-bold-element-on-a-quiet-page framing pulled pages toward the
tasteful softness the galleries showed losing. The signature becomes
where the concept peaks rather than the only place it lives.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Paul's spot-check of the Fable validation galleries: frontend-design's
lektor generations read vastly more distinctive and subject-faithful
despite losing the overall pairwise verdict on craft. The arena agrees
on the axis (distinctiveness 8-31 at n=5). Two additions to the core:
the opening viewport is a thesis (open with the most characteristic
thing in the subject's world, with a concrete memory test), and an
explicit polish-is-the-floor counterweight so the craft floor stops
reading as a mandate for quiet.

Eval evidence showed the per-edit PostToolUse stream fires overwhelmingly
on copy-level rules (em-dash-overuse ~97x/session) and measurably makes
models more conservative, while a full-detector pass at completion is what
actually fixes contrast/padding/glow. Split the hook accordingly:
- Per-edit (PostToolUse) now surfaces only IMMEDIATE_TIER_RULES: broken
output (broken-image, text-overflow, clipped-overflow-container,
body-text-viewport-edge), objective contrast/legibility failures
(low-contrast, gray-on-color, tiny-text), single-property mechanical
slop (gradient-text, dark-glow), and design-system drift (the four
design-system-* rules, which compound if left uncorrected). Everything
else defers. Override with hook.perEditRules: "all" in
.impeccable/config.json. Tiering is off for Cursor/Copilot harnesses,
which have no Stop pass wired, so nothing gets silently dropped there.
- Stop deep pass (runStopHook): runs the FULL rule set over every UI file
touched this session (tracked via the existing hook.cache.json session
state; deferred-only edits now mark the file touched), dedupes against
everything already surfaced per-edit, honors ignore-rule/file/value and
inline disables, reuses the [impeccable@1] envelope, and no-ops fast
when no UI files were touched. Emits hookSpecificOutput
{ hookEventName: "Stop", additionalContext } per the Claude Code SDK
Stop contract (conversation continues so the model can act on it).
Second Stop fire is silent - deep-pass findings are remembered.
- Wiring: Stop entries (timeout 30) in plugin/hooks/hooks.json, the
.claude settings + .codex hooks manifests (transformers + hook-admin
repair path). Claude Code and Codex both dispatch a native Stop event;
Cursor's stop hook is inconsistently dispatched (pre-write gate stays)
and Copilot's agentStop/sessionEnd don't inject model context, so
neither gets a Stop entry - documented in reference/hooks.md.
- Tests: tiering split/override/harness gating, Stop dedupe + silent
no-touched-files + ignore machinery + kill switches; existing per-edit
tests moved to immediate-tier rule ids. 181 tests green; smoke-tested
the built dist skill end to end (glow surfaced per-edit, em-dash only
at Stop, second Stop silent).
