Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 0fde0850cf skill v4.0.0-alpha.9: daily-driver core + mandatory new-work playbook
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.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 bf2dd7ec13 skill v4.0.0-alpha.8: four visitor modes replace the brand/product bifurcation
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 BakausandClaude Opus 4.8 1fe9c41759 Replace Alumni Sans Pinstripe with Alumni Sans across the type system
The Pinstripe display face was single-weight, so every `font-weight` on it
was inert — the documented h1/h2 weight split never actually rendered.
Switch --ks-font-display (and --ks-font-wordmark) to plain Alumni Sans, which
honors weight, and set the display scale intentionally:

- Display / h1  -> weight 100 (thin hairline hero)
- Headline / h2 -> weight 300 via --ks-type-headline-weight (light anchor)
- Wordmark 400, body 400, title 500 unchanged

Centralize h2 weight: the eight section-title sites that hardcoded 600 now
read var(--ks-type-headline-weight), so h2 weight is a single lever.

Google Fonts now loads Alumni Sans wght@100;300;...;700 and no longer pulls
the Pinstripe family. DESIGN.md, design.json, and the token/CSS comments are
updated to match (family, weights, Two-Face and Weight-Inversion rules).

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 4.8 d2ab4ddee6 Make Copilot built-in note a callout block under the Install header
Promote the inline GitHub Copilot aside to a proper note block placed
directly under "Step 1. Install", with the Copilot glyph. Full hairline
frame + faint gold ground (no side-stripe, which the detector flags as the
side-tab tell); gold icon carries the accent. Add a reusable .docs-note
style to docs-kinpaku.css so it tracks the docs theme tokens.

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 4.8 867fab2188 Redesign Get started install block as tabbed method selector
Replace the static Install/First run/Update boxes with a tabbed "Install
via" selector (impeccable / marketplace / skills.sh). Switching a tab swaps
the install and update commands together, with a per-method note.

- impeccable tab marked recommended with a gold star; carries a Node 24+
  requirement and a collapsed "Why one command, many builds" diagram that
  animates impeccable branching per harness. The diagram foregrounds the
  model-specific slop rules compiled into the Gemini and Codex builds
  (verified against skill/SKILL.src.md provider tags).
- GitHub Copilot is built into the app, so it's a quiet de-boxed callout
  under the tabs rather than a tab, catching Copilot users before they
  install something they don't need.
- Add claude-mark.png (transparent-background Claude starburst) for the
  marketplace tab.
- Tabs baseline-align with the "INSTALL VIA" label; diagram scales and the
  tablist wraps cleanly on mobile.

5b5e487a4f Improve live mode configure bar and pick UX (#242)
* Fix: tear down annotation overlay when Escape exits live pick mode.

* Fix review findings: pick-cursor state sync, anchor recovery, e2e selectors.

Code review of this branch surfaced ten confirmed bugs plus three smaller
ones; this commit fixes all of them.

- Route every interaction-state transition through a new setLiveState()
  helper that re-syncs the pick-mode crosshair, fixing four confirmed
  cursor bugs: never appearing on pick toggle (sync ran before the state
  change), sticking through the configure phase, surviving teardown
  page-wide, and the style mounting inside the adapter's shadow root
  where it can't match the host document (now document.head).
- Anchor recovery: a matching id is decisive again (hashed class names
  and component tags broke recovery), empty-text elements can no longer
  match the fuzzy text passes (".includes('')" hole plus shortest-text
  preference), and the dead 2-class-subset fallback is removed.
- Selection pill: drop the hover-only "armed" guard so keyboard
  activation works; the pill arms on focus as well as hover.
- Configure chrome: remove the configure-bar tooltip on teardown, align
  restorePickerBarChrome padding with initBar (5px), share the
  configure-input stylesheet with the insert row, and sync the
  ui-core.mjs surface inventory with live-browser.js.
- Site demos: delete the stale duplicate .live-demo-ctx-selection rule
  that killed the teal pill on dark pages, and keep the configure-phase
  demo bar on the overlay's dark surface in light mode so the near-white
  prompt text stays readable.
- E2E/contract tests: match the icon-only submit button by aria-label
  ("Generate variants") instead of the removed "Go" text, and update
  source-contract pins for setLiveState and buildConfigureSubmitButton.

Verified: bun run test green, live-mode E2E 23/23 across all fixtures.

* Wire insert voice button into syncVoiceUi listening state.

Voice on the insert configure row runs through the same 'configure' mode,
but syncVoiceUi only stamped data-listening/aria state on the replace
row's #impeccable-live-configure-voice, so the insert button never pulsed
while listening. Target whichever of the two row buttons is mounted, the
same either-row pattern syncConfigureInputChrome uses.

* Reinject from source when the session wrapper lands during anchor recovery.

The anchor-recovery observer stood down as soon as the session's variant
wrapper appeared in the DOM, without running injectVariantsFromSource.
A wrapper can land incomplete (wrap HMR landed, variant insert did not),
which is exactly the case injectVariantsFromSource's existing-wrapper
replace path handles - so recovery ended with the bar stuck and no
variants. Route both the anchor-found and wrapper-landed cases through
injectVariantsFromSource, which owns wrapper replacement, recovery-flag
clearing, and variant display.

* Restore inline edit drafts before configure chrome teardown disables editing.

teardownConfigureChrome called disableInlineEdit() ahead of hideBar(),
wiping inlineEditRows and the impeccableOriginalText metadata that
hideBar()'s EDITING-state restoreInlineEditDrafts() needs - so turning
Pick off mid "Edit copy" left edited DOM text in place, neither saved
nor canceled. Let hideBar() own the sequence: it restores drafts first,
then disables inline edit.

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 4.8 1f975a69e4 Hero: vocabulary-first copy + command-palette switcher in the demo
Rewrite the hero around the why (the missing design vocabulary) instead of the
live-mode how: "The missing design vocabulary for agents." The live demo now
opens the picker's command palette and picks a verb before generating, which is
the move that makes the live approach unique and was previously skipped.

- Demo palette mirrors the real action picker (live-browser.js): same 12 verbs,
  the same SVG icons, a 4-col icon-over-label grid, selected chip on a kinpaku
  wash with its icon recolored. Light + dark covered.
- Shared <LiveDemoPalette> component renders the grid from one list, so the hero
  and /live-mode no longer hand-copy the markup. /live-mode lands on "delight",
  the hero on "colorize" (via data-demo-pick); pages without a palette filter the
  switcher beats out of the shared timeline.
- Trim the opening beats so the cursor clicks the element at ~1.3s (was ~2s), and
  slow the palette browse so the vocabulary is readable.

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 4.8 6c7c04866c Fix dark changelog/FAQ cards in light mode
The changelog + FAQ pages share changelog-faq-kinpaku.css, which paints its
card/panel/pill backgrounds with literal dark oklch(8% …) values that don't
flip with the theme. The only light override was dead twice over: scoped to a
.changelog-faq-kinpaku wrapper that's never on the body (these pages use
.kinpaku-surface), and naming the wrong elements (.faq-item/.changelog-entry
instead of the cf-prefixed classes). So the cards stayed near-black on the
light page.

Replace that dead block with correct html.light .cf-* rules: flip the card
surfaces (cf-entry, cf-stats, cf-faq-item, cf-entry--current), the before/after
frame + before tag (cf-ba-shot, cf-ba-tag--before) to the shared light card
treatment, and drop the bright-kinpaku accents (cf-version, cf-stat-num,
cf-current-badge, cf-ba-tag--after, cf-faq-question) to --ks-kinpaku-ink so
they stay legible on paper, matching the .cf-eyebrow. Answer-body tokens
already flip, so they're untouched. Dark mode unaffected.

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 4.8 198aa91719 Color the command palette by section accent; vibrant dividers
Each command section now reads in its own category accent (--spread-accent)
across the palette: the kicker, the skill name (big title + active list
item), and the divider all take it, while the slash before /impeccable
drops to the muted namespace ink. The per-section divider accents are also
made vibrant — refine/simplify/harden were muddy kinpaku-pale/-deep/oxide;
now create/refine/simplify = kinpaku gold, evaluate/harden = patina
verdigris, system = neutral, matching the established category color
grouping. Light mode re-applies the accents over the shared eyebrow :is()
rule; dark mode picks them up from the base rules.

Also includes light-mode readability fixes for the live-demo G-bar (brand
mark, active tool chip, control chips, pin-note text/caret) and a
specificity fix so the hotel-hero demo text stays light on its photo.

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 4.8 1d5d745823 Make theme switcher three-way (auto/light/dark)
Default is "auto", which inherits from the OS via prefers-color-scheme
and follows it live. Clicking cycles auto → light → dark → auto; the
explicit choice persists in localStorage while auto stores nothing.

The toggle shows the active preference (half-circle / sun / moon) keyed
on a new data-theme-pref attribute, so "auto" is its own visible state
rather than collapsing into whatever the OS resolved to.

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 4.8 05942485d6 Use pristine kinpaku in light-mode command palette
The palette's title, active command, and category kicker rendered in the
muddy kinpaku-ink in light mode (the shared eyebrow rule swaps pristine
kinpaku for kinpaku-ink for legibility on warm paper). But the palette
sits on a near-white card, where pristine kinpaku reads fine — and it now
matches the already-pristine slashes and the PALETTE toggle.

Scope the override under .magazine-container so it only affects the
palette and clears the eyebrow rule's :is() specificity (inflated to 4
classes by its .fisheye-item.is-active argument). Other eyebrows keep
kinpaku-ink for paper legibility; dark mode is unchanged.

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 4.8 5083000125 Fix periodic-table view in light mode
The dark periodic table hardcodes a black stage and near-black tiles
with !important, and the only light override targeted .ptable-cell — a
class the component never emits (it renders .ptable-element). So in light
mode the tiles stayed black while the symbol/name text flipped to dark
ink: black on black, unreadable.

Add a proper light block (with !important to beat the dark rules): a soft
light stage, raised near-white tiles with neutral hairline borders and a
subtle shadow, and a darker hover border. Symbol/name colors and the
category labels already re-theme to dark inks, so they read cleanly.

Audit every --ks-rule-strong usage (the muddy desaturated gold). Where
the border/text sits beside pristine kinpaku or signals an active/hover/
brand state, lift it to --ks-kinpaku; where it's a large structural
frame, window chrome, or paired with neutral siblings, drop it to the
neutral --ks-rule hairline.

Lifted to --ks-kinpaku: detector focus ring + secondary action buttons,
design-system candidate caption + mini-ui "after" border, docs neon-case
secondary/hero-shot-hover, docs flow/chain arrows, homepage slop-teaser
hover + impeccable-card.
Dropped to --ks-rule: design-system comparison-stage frame, docs

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 4.8 8e25f9955f Fix light-mode header contrast over hero seam
On wide viewports the hero's bright kintsugi seam sits under the
top-right nav cluster, where dark light-mode text and the toggle/GitHub
chips fight the gold. Add a contextual, light-only radial scrim anchored
to the corner: it feathers out by 70% (no hard edge), is faded via --hp
the moment the header glasses in on scroll, and is off below the mobile
drawer breakpoint. Dark mode needs no treatment (cream text reads fine
over the darker seam).

With the scrim carrying the corner, the toggle and GitHub counter become
refined hairline chips in light mode — neutral --ks-rule border, no fill
(the GitHub pill previously used the gold --ks-rule-strong and a solid
background).

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 4.8 4e985f68c0 Rework Get started section: add update instructions, fix layout rhythm
Closes the documentation gap from #177: how to update an installed
version was nowhere on the site. Install and Update now sit as paired,
equally-visible commands, with `npx impeccable skills check` and the
Claude Code `/plugin` path called out alongside.

Also a full pass on the section's composition:
- Commit to left-aligned asymmetry so content has one spine and the gold
  seam owns the right edge, instead of floating left-of-center
- Make the install command pop: bright kinpaku frame + gold `$` prompt +
  left-aligned mono so it reads as a runnable line, not a decorative chip.
  Update box mirrors it one notch quieter in patina (the "updated" state)
- Group install/update/alternatives tightly, rule off the secondary
  surfaces, drop the duplicate "Get started:" closing label
- Repurpose the "Stay updated" cell to "Follow along" so it stops
  colliding with the real Update command

FAQ already had a strong #update entry; added the `skills check`
companion for parity. Getting-started tutorial gains a short update note
after Step 1. Both themes synced.

c8e973b324 Site polish: de-warm the palette, refine chrome, clean up /designing (#176)
* fix(home): command-wheel contrast, slop copy, line-length

Address P1/P2/P3 findings from /impeccable critique of the homepage:

- Command wheel (The Language): off-center command names floored at
  ~1.43:1 contrast were illegible (WCAG 1.4.3 fail) and hid most of the
  23-command vocabulary. Raise the fisheye opacity floor 0.25 -> 0.62,
  MIN_SCALE 0.35 -> 0.52, and lift the base color from --ks-text-muted to
  --ks-text. Off-center now measures >=4.59:1; full list stays scannable
  while gold + size + weight still carry focus.
- Slop section copy: rewrite all 7 discipline cards off the uniform
  "No X. No Y. No Z." triad into varied cadence with positives, and lead
  the section with what Impeccable does instead of the "Skills can't..."
  negation pivot. Drops the en-dash joiners too.
- Line length: cap .downloads-rebuild-note (was unbounded, ~102ch) and
  tighten the homepage .section-lead 68ch -> 62ch (rendered ~86 actual
  chars/line).

The diagonal plinth ramp on the slop grid is intentionally kept per
design preference.

* refactor(home): de-warm and brighten the text ramp

Warmth now lives only in the gold accents and surfaces, not the type.
Body, headings, and the secondary tiers read crisp on lacquer instead of
mushing into the warm floor:

- --ks-champagne 84% .035 82 -> 91% .006 90 (headings/strong, now neutral;

* refactor(home): outlined testimonials + cleaner hero boundary

Testimonials:
- Flatten the double container: drop the t-plinth shelf wrapper (markup +
  CSS); the marquee sits directly in the section and carries its inset.
- Outlined cards: no fill, 1px solid neutral border (oklch .64 0 0 / .22),
  no dead drop-shadow. Removes the mushy gray-on-gray blend and the stacked
  dotted-divider + gold-hairline chrome.
- Section has no background of its own (rides the body lacquer gradient) and
  no top padding, so cards sit right under the hero divider.

Hero:
- Drop the bottom fade and the top nav scrim; the kintsugi art runs at full
  strength. A 1px neutral border-bottom (matching the card border) marks the
  testimonials boundary instead of a wash.
- "How it works" is the kit ghost link (white), not an outlined button.

Foundation/slop cards: lift the surface 9% -> 15% so they read as raised
specimen cards instead of vanishing into the ground.

* refactor(live): quieter, more refined picker chrome

Gold is reserved for the brand mark and the active control instead of
ringing every container. Applied to the homepage demo, /live-mode, and the
real injected picker (skill/scripts/live-browser.js, rebuilt into the
harness dirs):

- Container: neutral 1px hairline + tight neutral shadow (was a 1.5px gold
  border + gold halo ring); radius 10px -> 8px.
- Active toggle: crisp graphite pill with gold text (was a murky kinpaku-dim
  wash).
- Internal control borders (action pill / input / count): neutral hairline
  (was a warm gold rule); configure-row controls share one 30px baseline.
- Pick outline: crisp 1.5px line, no soft gold glow ring; tighter radius.
- Demo browser chrome: small uniform neutral dots, neutral URL pill, slimmer
  bar; frame edge neutral hairline + tighter shadow that registers on dark.

DESIGN.md "Live Mode Picker" spec + "Picker Is Brand Rule" updated.

* refactor(design): neutral default hairline (--ks-rule)

The default border/divider token was a warm gold hairline, used ~200x as
the site-wide default border — so every small label, pill, counter, card,
and divider carried warmth. Redefine it neutral so borders read clean;
gold stays where it signals.

- --ks-rule oklch(58% 0.065 82 / 0.32) -> oklch(78% 0 0 / 0.16)
- --ks-rule-strong (active/focus/brand borders) unchanged, still gold
- GitHub star pill: explicit near-white border (oklch 92% 0 0 / 0.18)
- DESIGN.md hairline mirror + prose synced

Verified across home, /design-system, and /docs.

* fix(home): testimonials separator + visible star-pill border

- Move the dotted accent to the bottom of the testimonials (neutral dots)
  as a deliberate separator into the slop section; drop the oversized
  bottom padding to 1em so cards sit near the separator.
- Star-counter pill: solid oklch(80% 0 0) border. The previous near-white
  at 0.32 alpha rendered as faded mid-gray on the near-black pill; a solid
  light border reads as the intended white hairline.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(design): neutralize body text (--ks-text)

Drop the last bit of warm chroma from the body text token; it still read
slightly warm at 0.008 chroma.

--ks-text oklch(88% 0.008 90) -> oklch(88% 0 0)  (pure neutral)

DESIGN.md mirror + prose synced.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(design): neutral text everywhere

Zero the residual warm chroma across the rest of the text ramp so no text
tier carries warmth (warmth lives only in gold accents + surfaces).

- --ks-champagne 91% .006 90 -> 91% 0 0
- --ks-text-muted 72% .01 90  -> 72% 0 0
- --ks-text-faint 62% .008 90 -> 62% 0 0
- --ks-text-mute-deep 52% .008 90 -> 52% 0 0

(--ks-text was already neutralized.) DESIGN.md mirror + prose synced.

* refactor(home): crisp, neutral Desloppification section

- Foundation card background: oklch(15% .004 95) -> oklch(15% 0 0) (neutral
  graphite) so cards read crisp, not warm.
- Plinth hatch: kinpaku gold -> neutral (oklch 80% 0 0 / .07) on a neutral
  base; the gold hatch was washing the section champagne.
- Remove the plinth bottom mask-fade so the pedestals end on a clean edge.

Gold stays only on the card icons as the accent.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(home): drop the homepage warm-token overrides

The homepage redefined --ks-rule, --ks-rule-strong, and --ks-muted to warm
values locally (an old "busier surfaces" tweak), so homepage borders and
secondary text stayed champagne even after the global de-warm. That's why
the Desloppification cards still read warm.

- Remove the --ks-rule / --ks-rule-strong overrides; inherit the global
  tokens (neutral default border, gold strong/active border).
- Alias --ks-muted to the global --ks-text-muted (no divergent value);
  legacy code still reads the --ks-muted name.

Result: all homepage borders + secondary text are neutral; gold stays on
accents (icons, mark, CTAs, active/focus).

* refactor(design): canonical code tokens (inline + block)

Code styling was all over the place: homepage inline code was gold-on-gold,
the slop CLI was a one-off gold-on-raised-lacquer, downloads used a separate
--card-cmd-* set, docs used yet another. Add one shared token set and point
the canonical surfaces at it.

New :root tokens:
- --ks-code-fg / --ks-code-bg / --ks-code-radius      (inline: neutral chip)
- --ks-code-block-fg / -bg / -border / -radius        (block/CLI: lacquer terminal)
- --ks-code-cmd                                        (code that's a command link)

Migrated: homepage inline code (was gold -> neutral chip), slop-teaser-cli
(the "weird color" -> neutral terminal), downloads-cmd, and the docs inline +
fenced-block rules (now the token source of truth; block text also neutralized).

Remaining pages (designing, changelog/faq, detector, case studies) swept next.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(design): sweep remaining pages onto code tokens

Point the rest of the site's code rules at the shared code tokens so inline
code and blocks are consistent everywhere:

- Inline code (designing, changelog, faq): gold -> neutral chip
  (--ks-code-fg / --ks-code-bg).
- Detector rule pills + table cells: code text -> --ks-code-fg.
- Neon-mirai case-study code block -> --ks-code-block-* tokens.

Command tags (the gold /command pills: spread-flow-cmd, docs-flow-cmd,
designing-phase-cmd, why-ci-cmd, etc.) are intentionally left as their own
interactive category, not generic code.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(home): polish "The Language" section

- Command tags (/polish, /adapt): gold command text on a neutral code chip
  (--ks-code-cmd / --ks-code-bg), dropping the muddy gold-tint border.
- Commands panel kept as the solid oklch(0.17 0 0) panel (no border).
- Demo preview cleaned up to a single framed split: strip the grid ::before,
  the gold-grid/radial-glow container background, and the inner drop-shadow;
  before-half inherits the panel, after-half is near-black, with one thin
  neutral border on the demo itself (caption sits outside it).
- Periodic table: crisp flat neutral graphite tiles. Removed the JS-inlined
  category bg (var(--cat-*-bg)) + 1.5px colored border + hover drop-shadow,
  the gold-leaf ::before texture, the ::after accent line, the inset box-shadow,
  and the gold hover glow. Now a 1px neutral border, white symbols, readable
  neutral names, and a clean neutral-border hover with no shadow.

* refactor(design): roomier inline-code padding

Inline code chips were tight top/bottom (the homepage one was only 0.05em).
Add a --ks-code-pad token (0.3em 0.5em) and point every inline-code rule at
it so the chips have consistent breathing room.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(home): drop non-steering commands from the command palette

impeccable, init, extract, document, and live are setup/management commands,
not steering verbs. Filter them out of the palette (fisheye + mobile carousel)
via a shared PALETTE_EXCLUDED set. They stay in the periodic table, which is
rendered separately by framework-viz.js.

Palette: 23 -> 18 commands.

* fix(designing): flatten the pre-ship nested box

The pre-ship cards were a box-in-box: a legacy .designing-polish-grid panel
(cream bg + L/R/B border + padding, from docs-visuals.css) wrapping cards that
already have their own border + fill. Override the grid to a plain transparent
layout so the three cards are the only surface.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(designing): remove step counter + flatten design-debt boxes

- Drop the cryptic "03 · 04" pre-ship step counter (.designing-polish-band-meta)
  and tighten the band to a single bottom hairline.
- Design-debt: flatten the box-in-box (bento plinth > tile > stage). The
  .designing-maintain-stage no longer adds its own border + fill; the demo
  sits directly in the bento tile.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(designing): neutralize code/terminal/panel surfaces

The terminal block, surface-cmd chips, command pills, live-frame, and other
dark panels used a slightly-warm dark fill (oklch 1X% 0.006 95). Drop the warm
chroma so they read neutral like the rest of the de-warmed site; the page
ground + deep surfaces stay lacquer-warm.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(designing): neutralize inline code + live-mock picker chrome

- Inline code: the phase-sub and avoid-title code were still gold; point them
  at --ks-code-fg so all inline code reads neutral (gold stays only on command
  *links*).
- docs-viz-live mock: bring the duplicated picker chrome in line with the
  refactored neutral treatment — neutral 1px container borders (no gold halo),
  neutral active "Pick" pill (was the kinpaku-dim wash), crisp pick outline
  (no glow), tighter radii.
- CTAs (SEND ME ONE, Accept): pale-cream kinpaku-pale -> solid kinpaku gold.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(designing): flatten lanes + avoid sections

- Brand/Product lane mock cards: drop the inner border+fill box; the mock sits
  directly in the bento tile, separated by a top hairline (no plinth>tile>mock
  nesting).
- "What to avoid" list: flatten the boxed list cards into a clean divided list
  (hairline separators, no per-item border/fill).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(designing): clean up the Brand/Product lanes

- Drop the bento plinth (0.17 fill + 8px gutter that drew the weird gutter
  "borders") and the tile fill; the two lanes sit on the page split by a single
  center hairline.
- Brand mock title used the pinstripe display face at 1.6rem (reads broken at
  that size, the "champagne text"); switch it to the clean body face so it
  matches the product mock title.

* Add Neo Kinpaku light mode across the site.

Wire theme persistence and a header toggle, then layer light-mode overrides for docs viz contrast, command demos, live-mode pathway cards, and the designing/home surfaces.

* fix(designing): replace em dashes flagged by prose validator

Brand/Product lane copy used em dashes ("the deliverable —", "the task —");
swap for colons per STYLE.md so the Cloudflare build's validateProse passes.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(designing): address Cursor bugbot nits

- Fold the duplicate .designing-avoid { gap: 0 } override into the original
  rule (the gap: 18px was dead code).
- Drop the leftover el.style.boxShadow = 'none' in the periodic-tile deactivate
  handler — activate no longer sets a box-shadow, so this only left a dead
  inline none that could suppress a future CSS shadow.

e8e3665142 Live mode: staged AI copy edits (#158)
* feat(live): manual text-edit panel + Astro inject + stale-lockfile reap

Adds a manual text-edit popover under the live-mode bar so users can
retype copy directly without going through generate. The footer's
"Apply edits" button fires a manual_edits event; the server writes
the changes back to source via the new live-edit.mjs deterministic
file mutator. Mirrors the wrap+accept flow but skips variant generation.

New scripts:
- skill/scripts/live-edit.mjs: writes manual_edits back to source
- skill/scripts/live-text-rows.js: browser walker that surfaces every
  pure-text descendant of the picked element as an editable row

Touched scripts:
- skill/scripts/live-browser.js: text panel UI, CONFIGURING state hook
- skill/scripts/live-poll.mjs: manual_edits routing
- skill/scripts/live-server.mjs: manual_edits endpoint + handler
- skill/scripts/live-wrap.mjs: small adjustments to support the flow

Docs + tests:
- skill/reference/live.md: manual-edit section
- tests/live-edit.test.mjs, tests/live-text-rows.test.mjs

Also bundles two live-mode reliability fixes that surfaced during
manual testing of the feature:

1. live-inject now emits is:inline when the inject target is a .astro
   file. Astro otherwise processes the <script> tag and rewrites src
   to its own bundled URL, so the literal live.js never loads.

2. readLiveServerInfo now probes the lockfile PID with kill(pid, 0)
   and unlinks the stale lock if dead. Previously a crashed helper
   left server.json with a dead PID and live-poll reported "Live
   server not running" forever.

* feat(live): inline contenteditable text editing

Replace the text-edit popover panel with inline contenteditable activation.
When an element is picked in CONFIGURING, every pure-text descendant becomes
contenteditable="true" directly on the page. Each blur-event fires a single-op
manual_edits save to source. Esc restores original text and stays in CONFIGURING;
successful save exits to PICKING. If Go is clicked while a save is in-flight,
the save completes before generate fires.

Deleted ~340 lines of panel UI (initTextPanel, openTextPanel, closeTextPanel,
renderTextRow, buildTextFooter, etc.). Added enableInlineEdit, disableInlineEdit,
onInlineBlur. Server contract unchanged; live-edit.mjs handles per-op saves as
before. Tests: 186 pass.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(live): hide annotation overlay during inline edit

Annotation overlay's click handler was intercepting clicks on contenteditable
text elements. Hide the overlay when inline-edit is enabled to allow text
selection and editing. Restore it when exiting inline-edit (if still in
CONFIGURING).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(live): edit content badge mode with batched saves

Replace automatic inline contenteditable on element pick with an explicit "Edit content" badge. The badge appears at the element's top-right corner when an element is picked. Clicking the badge enters a new EDITING state where:

- The contextual bar hides
- The annotation overlay hides
- The badge morphs to show Cancel + Apply buttons
- Text descendants become contenteditable inline

Edits are held in memory (input event tracking) until Apply is clicked, which fires a single batched manual_edits event with all ops. Cancel discards drafts without saving. This eliminates the annotation overlay interference that prevented clicking on text elements.

The EDITING state integrates with the main state machine and handles all exits (Esc, click-outside, teardown) cleanly.

All 186 tests pass.

* fix(live): use row.el.tagName for tag in applyEditing op

The applyEditing function was trying to use row.tag which doesn't exist on the row object. The tag should be the tagName of the text element itself (row.el.tagName.toLowerCase()).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(live): Edit content badge styling + auto-focus + separate buttons

- Edit content button now matches Go button styling (BP.accent background, BP.mark text, FONT, transitions, hover effects)
- Auto-focus first editable element when entering editing mode (50ms timeout)
- Separate Cancel and Apply buttons with 8px gap (no divider)
- Cancel uses muted styling (BP.hairline background, BP.textDim text)
- Apply keeps brand accent styling
- Remove all focus rings and outlines on edit badge buttons (no blue ring/outline in EDITING mode)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Haiku 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(live): Subtle button UI + cursor positioning + better copy

- Change badge buttons to use impeccable-button aesthetic (ink background, surface text, hover to accent)
  - Removes aggressive styling conflict with Go button
  - No animations; simple 150ms background transition
  - Matches site design language (padding 0.625rem 1.5rem, 0.8125rem font, letter-spacing 0.03em)
- Shorter, clearer button copy: "Edit" instead of "Edit content", "Save" instead of "Apply"
- Fix cursor positioning: cursor now appears at END of text, not beginning
  - Use Selection API to collapse cursor to end of contenteditable element
  - Improves UX for immediate continuation of text
- Update live.md documentation to reflect new button labels

Co-Authored-By: Claude Haiku 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(live): Use site design system colors for edit badge buttons

- Edit/Save buttons: oklch(10% 0 0) background → oklch(60% 0.25 350) on hover
- Cancel button: oklch(55% 0 0) background → oklch(65% 0 0) on hover
- All buttons: 6px border-radius (matches Go button), oklch(98% 0 0) text
- Smooth transition: 0.3s cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1) (--ease-out)
- Uses site color palette instead of live-overlay constants

Co-Authored-By: Claude Haiku 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(live): Match slop-callout style for edit badge buttons

- Use exact .slop-callout aesthetic: paper background, accent border + text, uppercase 10px (0.625rem)
- 600 weight, 0.06em letter-spacing, 4px 8px padding, 6px border-radius
- Box-shadow: 0 2px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.1) matches site callouts
- Hover: inverts to filled background (accent fill, paper text)
- Cancel uses ash color variant for muted state, Save uses accent
- Smooth 0.3s cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1) transition on background and color

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(live): Pill-shaped edit badge buttons, 2px padding, no uppercase

- Border-radius: 999px (pill shape)
- Padding: 2px 8px (more compact)
- Removed text-transform: uppercase

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(live): Cancel button uses mist border + ash text

- Border: 1px solid oklch(92% 0 0) (--color-mist)
- Color: oklch(55% 0 0) (--color-ash)
- Hover: inverts to ash background with paper text

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(live): Remove blue focus outline from contenteditable elements in EDITING mode

- Add inline outline: none on each row's element when contenteditable activates
- Inject [data-impeccable-editable] CSS rule to override browser default focus ring
- Use !important to win against site styles that re-apply focus outlines
- Cleanup restores outline/data-attribute on disable

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(live): Decouple manual edits from agent/poll pipeline

Manual text edits now POST directly to a new /manual-edit endpoint
that runs live-edit.mjs synchronously and returns the result. The
event is never enqueued, never reaches the poll loop, never reaches
the agent.

Why: every Save was costing an LLM turn. The poll script would
dequeue the manual_edits event, run live-edit.mjs deterministically,
post a completion ack, then print the event JSON to stdout. The
Claude agent would read that output and decide "loop and re-poll".
Zero real work for the agent but every Save burned context.

Changes:
- live-server.mjs: new POST /manual-edit handler that runs live-edit.mjs
  synchronously and returns the result. Does not enqueue, does not log
  to session store. Defense-in-depth: /events rejects manual_edits.
- live-browser.js: applyEditing() POSTs to /manual-edit instead of
  sendEvent({type: 'manual_edits'}).
- live-poll.mjs: removed manual_edits handler branch (dead code now).
- reference/live.md: removed "Handle manual_edits" section; replaced
  with a one-line note that manual edits are server-direct.

The HMR-triggered page reload remains (dev server detects source file
change) but that is a separate dev-server behavior, not our pipeline.
resumeSession() already restores variants and selection after reload.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(live): Stash manual edits server-side; commit via AI on request

Decouples manual-edit Save from source file writes. Save now stashes
to .impeccable/live/pending-manual-edits.json with no HMR refresh.
The user explicitly asks the AI to commit when ready.

Why: even with the prior /manual-edit fix, every Save still wrote to
source and triggered the dev server's HMR/full reload. The page flash
was the actual user pain. Now there's zero source touch on Save, and
the user controls when the dev server reloads.

Server (live-server.mjs):
- /manual-edit-stash POST: append to buffer file. Returns {ok, pendingCount, totalCount, perPage}.
- /manual-edit-stash GET: query counts by page for counter UI.
- /manual-edit-discard POST: drop entries (all if no pageUrl).
- Old /manual-edit returns 410 Gone (defense in depth).
- Buffer ops merge by (pageUrl, ref): keep first originalText, update newText.

CLIs:
- live-commit-manual-edits.mjs: read buffer, shell out to live-edit.mjs
  per entry, truncate succeeded entries, surface failures.
- live-discard-manual-edits.mjs: truncate buffer (optionally scoped by page).
- Both take optional --page-url=<url>.

Browser (live-browser.js):
- applyEditing() POSTs to /manual-edit-stash, no source write.
- Pending pill (• N staged) + trash icon next to Exit in global bar.
- One-time onboarding toast on first Save: "Saved. Tell the AI to commit when ready."
- Counter persists across reloads via GET /manual-edit-stash on init.
- Trash icon: confirm dialog scoped to current page, then POST /manual-edit-discard.

Variant pipeline interaction:
- live-wrap.mjs: when wrapping an element, apply pending manual edits to
  the source range so the wrap block's "original" variant reflects the
  user's edited DOM (their pre-Go view), not the raw source.
- live-accept.mjs: after accept writes the variant to source, scrub
  buffer ops whose originalText no longer appears in that file. The
  accept embodies the manual edit; the pending op is consumed.
- Variant discard does NOT touch the buffer.

Reference docs:
- reference/live.md: full commit/discard contract, trigger guidance
  (narrow action-verb intent), do-not-auto-commit rule.

* feat(live): Staged-edits pill becomes an "Apply" button

Click the "• N staged" pill → confirm dialog "Apply N staged edits
to source? The page will reload." → POST /manual-edit-commit on the
server, which shells out to live-commit-manual-edits.mjs. Same path
the AI uses, just triggered from the overlay.

Trash icon stays for discard. The AI-driven commit path also stays
(useful for inspecting failures or scripting). The pill is now the
primary apply affordance because it removes the chat-context-switch
for the common case.

Pill styling: pointer cursor, accent border + text at rest, fills
on hover (accent bg, paper text). Tooltip: "Click to apply staged
edits to source".

First-save toast updated: "Saved. Click the 'staged' badge to apply,
or ask the AI."

* fix(live): Manual edit ops use the leaf element's locator, not parent's

Multi-row inline editing captures each contenteditable leaf (row.el) but
the op was being built with selectedElement.id / classList — i.e. the
parent card, not the editable text node. live-edit.mjs then searched
source for the parent's class on the leaf's tag (e.g. <span class=
"foundation-card">), found nothing, and silently failed.

Use row.el's own id / classList instead.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(live): Climb to nearest classed ancestor when leaf has no locator

A bare <em>/<strong>/etc. with no id or class produced ops the CLI
rejected with insufficient_locator. Prefer the leaf's own id/class; if
neither exists, walk up to the nearest ancestor with one and adopt its
tag + locator. Text-replace still works because the CLI narrows by
originalText inside the matched element's source range.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(live): Make mixed-content paragraphs editable

The text-rows walker skips elements with mixed children (text + element +
text), so paragraphs like "Some text <code>x</code> more text" or "Body
text · <a>link</a>" exposed zero rows for the surrounding copy. At edit
time, wrap each non-whitespace direct text-node child in a marker span so
the walker emits a row for it. Unwrap on save/cancel. The locator climbs
to the parent's class as before, and live-edit narrows by originalText
inside that parent's source range.

hasTextRows now uses a lightweight subtree check that matches the new
wrap+walk path so the edit affordance shows up on mixed-content elements.

* fix(live): Address Cursor Bugbot findings (CB-2 through CB-6)

CB-2 - Escape reverted DOM text but inlineEditDrafts retained the
pre-revert value; clicking Apply afterwards committed the undone edit.
Clear the draft entry when restoring innerText.

CB-3 - The scrub gate !result.handled || result.handled !== false was
a tautology that ran the scrub regardless of accept outcome. Use the
intended result.handled !== false.

CB-4 - The buffer-aware "original" content step in live-wrap iterated
every entry in the buffer with no pageUrl filter, so an edit on /a
could leak into a wrap call on /b. Add --page-url to the CLI; filter by
it; skip the buffer-aware step entirely when omitted. live.md updated.

CB-5 - removeEntries returned entry count while truncateBuffer returned
op count, causing the discard CLI and HTTP endpoint to report mixed
units. Make removeEntries return ops removed.

CB-6 - applyTextReplace used string truthiness to gate prepending
content above the edit, which silently dropped a leading empty line
when the file started with '\n'. Gate on the line index instead, and
mirror the fix on the trailing-empty-line side.

* fix(live): A3+A4 data-integrity guards, A6 test coverage

A3 — applyTextReplace refuses with text_ambiguous_in_block when
originalText appears more than once in the matched element block.
Refusing is safer than picking the first indexOf hit when we can't
tell which leaf the user edited; user can rephrase one occurrence.

A4 — newText is rejected if it contains <, >, {, }, or a backtick.
Two layers: server-side validator in /manual-edit-stash returns 400,
CLI-side guard in applyTextReplace returns invalid_chars_in_newText.
Browser surfaces the specific reason via toast. The shared char list
lives in live-edit.mjs (validateNewTextChars). reference/live.md
documents the rule.

A6 — New test files cover the orchestration gap:
 - live-manual-edits-buffer.test.mjs (17 tests across read/stage/
   remove/find/count/truncate; pins removeEntries returns OPS count)
 - live-wrap-buffer-aware.test.mjs (3 tests; CB-4 regression test)
 - live-commit-manual-edits.test.mjs (4 tests; partial-failure,
   --page-url scope, no_pending_edits)
 - live-discard-manual-edits.test.mjs (3 tests; CB-5 unit consistency)
 - live-accept-scrub.test.mjs (4 tests; keep/drop/prune)
Plus 2 new cases in live-edit.test.mjs for A3 and A4.

Side-effect refactors:
 - scrubManualEditsAgainstFile accepts cwd for unit-testing and is
   exported.
 - Failed-op entries in live-edit.mjs now propagate forbidden and
   occurrences fields so callers can surface specifics.

41 tests across the 6 affected files pass; full suite green at 186/186.

* feat(live): Disable Edit badge while variants are generating

Clicking Edit during GENERATING would open inline text editing on the
same DOM region the variant wrapper is about to land in, racing the
HMR and the mutation observer. The badge now switches to an
'idle-disabled' rendering (ash + mist, not-allowed cursor, disabled
attribute, tooltip) the moment state transitions into GENERATING.
Returns to 'idle' on the normal CONFIGURING re-entry paths.

* fix(live): live-wrap refuses without --page-url when buffer has pending edits

When a manual edit is staged ("Impeccable Works!") but not yet committed,
the buffer holds the user's edited DOM while source still has the un-
edited text ("Impeccable"). live-wrap's buffer-aware step exists to
rewrite the wrap block's <div data-impeccable-variant="original"> to
match the staged DOM, but per CB-4 it is gated by --page-url. When the
agent invoking live-wrap omits --page-url, the buffer-aware step
silently no-op'd and the variant authoring saw stale source — the
user's manual edit appeared lost.

Make the silent no-op a loud error: when buffer.entries.length > 0
and --page-url is missing, exit 1 with
{ error: 'missing_page_url_with_pending_edits', pendingEntries, hint }.
Empty buffer = no risk = no requirement, so existing flows without
pending edits keep working.

Updated reference/live.md to flag --page-url as required when the
buffer has entries. Added regression test in
live-wrap-buffer-aware.test.mjs. live-wrap.test.mjs gained a buffer-
clear hook so any leftover .impeccable/live/pending-manual-edits.json
from local dev doesn't trip the new check.

  a structured manual_edit_apply result (the documented flag was

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 4.8 506f40607a fix(site): stop why-bento crunching inner mockups on wide viewports
The full-bleed breakout baked the (100vw - 1500px)/2 gutter into each edge
tile's padding for title alignment. On the leftmost span-4 tile (DESIGN.md)
that gutter grew faster than the column, so past 1500px the inner .why-dm-grid
got squeezed as the viewport widened.

Move the cap to .why-bento itself via margin-inline that only cancels
.site-content's clamp side padding: below 1500px the rail stays edge-to-edge,
at/above 1500px it caps at 1500px and centers with the page background on the
sides. Tile content still aligns with the section headings, and columns stop
growing so the mockups hold their size.

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 4.8 06eabc144a site: fix homepage hero overflow + tiny title on mobile
The hero clipped horizontally on phones: the collapsed grid used a plain
`1fr` track whose min-content floor wouldn't shrink below the demo's 460px
browser frame. Switch the mobile track to minmax(0,1fr) so it shrinks to the
viewport and the frame clips its own content. Drop the container's redundant
56px side padding on mobile so the hero uses the standard 24px gutter.

Also: collapse the demo's hotel-mock nav to logo + Book on mobile (its full
4-link nav overran the narrow frame and clipped mid-word), and give the
scan-terminal `overflow-x: auto` so long lines scroll instead of clipping.

The title keeps its design-system clamp (no mobile shrink): Alumni Sans
Pinstripe is condensed, so it fits at 54px down to 320px, holding a ~3.2×
hero hierarchy over the body.

9ffd3211d5 Neo Kinpaku design system + Live Mode v3 (#169)
* Add neo kinpaku design system page

* skill: rip out baked-in category recipes and saturated-default motion tropes

Programmatic bias mining (impeccable-evals) traced four major defects
back to specific lines in this skill that contradicted SKILL.md's own
first-order-reflex warning:

- brand.md "Pairing and voice" prescribed four category→aesthetic
  recipes (editorial → serif+sans, tech/dev/fintech → tight tracking,
  consumer/food/travel → script/display serif, creative → rule-break).
  These directly drove OpenAI's 76% extreme-negative letter-spacing
  on tech briefs and Anthropic/Google's 28-34% italic-serif-display
  slop on editorial/food briefs. Replaced with one sentence: the
  shape depends on the brand, not on the brand's category.
- brand.md "Brand permissions" had "Typographic risk. Enormous
  display type, unexpected italic cuts, mixed cases, hand-drawn
  headlines, a single oversize word as a hero." — a four-for-one
  slop driver behind 97% OpenAI comically-large H1, 42% bad-SVG
  illustration, and the editorial-italic slop. Deleted outright.
- typeset.md and teach.md repeated the same category recipes;
  trimmed to the principle without the recipe.
- SKILL.md Typography: added a hard hero-H1 ceiling (clamp() max
  ≤ 6rem ≈ 96px), with a <codex> block to make it explicit since
  OpenAI over-indexes here (97% ≥128px vs 24% for Anthropic).
- animate.md, bolder.md, brand.md: removed "staggered reveals" and
  "scroll-triggered transitions" as the prescribed default ambitious
  motion. By 2026 that's the saturated AI tell, not a choreography.
  Reserved stagger for legitimate list-sibling rhythm.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* skill: anti-cream + codex-specific defect bans + universal slop bans

Second pass after measuring more biases against the eval corpus.

- SKILL.md Color: explicit "cream/sand/beige body bg is the saturated
  AI default of 2026" rule. Tone down the "tint every neutral" line so
  it doesn't read as "default to warm-tinted near-white" (which OpenAI
  hits at 74% and Anthropic at 31%-47%).
- SKILL.md Absolute bans: add universal bans for two slop patterns
  detected at 55-95% across providers — tiny uppercase tracked eyebrow
  above every section (the 2023-era kicker that's now AI grammar) and
  numbered section markers (01/02/03). Also explicit "text that
  overflows its container is the universal defect on tablet/mobile."
- SKILL.md Absolute bans → <codex> block: ban the GPT-specific defects
  Paul annotated repeatedly — `border:1px solid` + soft-wide-shadow
  (≥16px blur) "ghost cards", `border-radius:32px+` over-rounding,
  hand-drawn/sketchy SVG illustrations (loose-sketch / *-sketch classes,
  feTurbulence paper-grain filters), repeating-linear-gradient stripes,
  "X theater" AI-slop copy phrases.
- SKILL.md Motion → <gemini> block: the image :hover transform tell
  (38% Google skill-on rate). Hover effects on images add no info; the
  image isn't an action target. Animate card chrome, not the image.
- SKILL.md Typography: hard display letter-spacing floor ≥-0.04em
  (OpenAI defaults to -0.075em → cramped). Existing hero ceiling
  <codex> block extended with the letter-spacing rule.
- codex.md Step A example: stop seeding "warm-grounded (deep oxblood +
  cream)" as the warm-palette template, which primes the cream default.
- colorize.md Tinted backgrounds: stop printing the literal cream
  recipe `oklch(97% 0.01 60)`; replace with brand-anchored guidance.
- document.md examples: warm-ash-cream → cool-paper so the example
  doesn't seed cream as the canonical neutral example.

* skill: universal anti-slop bans + contrast/font-count/all-caps-body rules

Third pass after measuring the rest of the cross-provider matrix:

- Color: explicit "Verify contrast" rule. Low-contrast text fires at
  68% across all providers skill-on (90+% off). The most common
  failure is muted gray body on a tinted near-white; light-gray-for-
  elegance is named as the single biggest cause of unreadable AI
  pages.
- Typography: max-3-font-families rule. Overused-fonts (>4 families)
  fires at 28% Anthropic / 36% Google / 0% OpenAI skill-on; >50% off.
  Also: universal "no all-caps body copy" (moved from brand-only ban
  to Shared design laws since product-register also overuses caps).
- Copy: anti-aphoristic-cadence ban targets Anthropic's signature
  "X. No Y." / "X. Just Y." voice (63% skill-on copy-slop rate, 77%
  off — the worst rate in the matrix). Once-is-voice / three-or-more-
  is-tell framing per the runner's copy-slop detector.
- Copy: anti-SaaS-buzzword-string ban with the literal phrase list
  the detector watches for (streamline/empower/supercharge, trusted-
  by-leading, best-in-class/enterprise-grade/cutting-edge, etc).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* skill: strengthen anti-cream rule across full warm-neutral band

Smoke validation showed the cream fix worked for Google + OpenAI but
Anthropic Sonnet italian-restaurant still shipped `--paper: oklch(90%
.018 88)` — cream just outside the L≥95% band the rule cited.

Broaden the rule:
- Band: OKLCH L 0.84-0.97, C < 0.06, hue 40-100 (was 95-97% / 60-95).
- Name the token-name tells explicitly (paper / cream / sand / bone /
  flour / linen / parchment / wheat / biscuit / ivory) — the model
  defaults to one of these regardless of what hex it lands on.
- Call out the specific brief patterns ("warm, traditional, family-
  coastal-Italian" / "editorial-restraint") that the model translates
  into cream by reflex. Then provide three explicit non-cream options:
  saturated brand color, true off-white at C=0, or darker mid-tone.

Warmth in the brand is carried by accent + typography + imagery, not
by body bg.

* v3.2.0: skill bias-fix release

Bumps version from 3.1.1 to mark the four-commit skill cleanup that
rips out baked-in category recipes (brand.md), saturated-default motion
tropes (staggered reveals everywhere), the cream/sand body-bg AI tell,
codex-specific defects (1px+wide-shadow, over-rounding, hand-drawn SVGs,
stripes, X-theater copy), the extreme-letter-spacing default, and
universal slop bans (all-caps eyebrow on every section, numbered-section
markers, all-caps body, font-family-count > 3, aphoristic copy cadence,
SaaS buzzword strings). Plus a hard hero-H1 ceiling (clamp() ≤6rem) and
a Gemini-specific image:hover transform block.

Validated against ~190 post-fix samples — see impeccable-evals
biases tab for per-provider deltas.

* drop "no pure black/white" rule entirely

The rule was contested in the design world and causing more damage than
good — pushing every page into the tinted-near-white default which is
the cream/sand AI tell we already explicitly ban elsewhere. Vercel,
SVKMS, Brutalist sites, et al. use pure black/white successfully; the
skill shouldn't second-guess that.

Skill markdown deletions:
- SKILL.md Color: drop the "Never use #000 or #fff" bullet.
- color-and-contrast.md: drop the "Never Use Pure Gray or Pure Black"
  subsection, the "Never pure black" table-row prescription, and the
  "Avoid: Using pure black for large areas" bullet.
- colorize.md: drop the "NEVER use pure black or pure white for large
  areas" bullet.
- polish.md: drop the "Tinted neutrals: No pure gray or pure black"
  half of the bullet (the gray-on-color bullet survives).

Detector code (cli/engine):
- registry/antipatterns.mjs: remove the `pure-black-white` entry.
- rules/checks.mjs: remove the three `findings.push({ id:
  'pure-black-white', ... })` emit points (inline #000 bg, Tailwind
  bg-black class, plain-HTML scan path).
- engines/regex/detect-text.mjs: remove the two pure-black-white regex
  rules (CSS `background: #000…` + Tailwind `bg-black`).
- detect-antipatterns-browser.js: regenerated via
  scripts/build-browser-detector.js.

Tests:
- detect-antipatterns-fixtures.test.mjs: invert the assertion that
  pure-black-white fires; expect it to NOT fire post-v3.2. Drop the
  Tailwind bg-black-opacity edge-case test (no longer relevant).
- detect-antipatterns.test.js: drop the standalone "detects pure-
  black-white in styled-components" test and remove pure-black-white
  from the multi-detector assertions in PricingCard, globals.css, and
  GlobalStyle.tsx tests.

166 bun tests pass; 24 node fixture tests pass.

* skill: strip example patterns from copy rules, strengthen gemini block

v3.2 rerun validation surfaced two issues:

1. Copy-slop detector fires more on Gemini under v3.2 (48% → 84%) than
   under no-skill baseline. Root cause: the anti-aphoristic-cadence rule
   printed the literal "X. No Y." / "X. Just Y." patterns as examples,
   and Gemini imitated them as the recommended voice. Same recipe-becomes-
   bias trap we hit with brand.md:116's "Enormous display type, unexpected
   italic cuts, mixed cases, hand-drawn headlines" enumeration. Fix:
   describe the cadence as a rhythm ("serious statement, then punchy
   short negation") without printing literal patterns. Buzzword list
   trimmed to a single inline phrase family rather than quoted strings.

2. Gemini image:hover transform Gemini-tell hadn't dropped (31% off →
   32% v3.2). Strengthen the <gemini> block: explicit "Never animate
   <img> elements on hover", call out the Tailwind group-hover:scale /
   group-hover:rotate / group-hover:translate parent-hover patterns by
   name (Gemini was reaching for these via Tailwind even though the
   prior text talked about :hover on the image directly).

* skill: simplify context loading and inline register directive

Replaces load-context.mjs's JSON output with a tight markdown block from
the renamed context.mjs. The script now extracts PRODUCT.md's `## Register`
field and appends a `NEXT STEP:` directive naming the matching reference
(brand.md / product.md), which moved Gemini from skipping the register
load entirely to honoring it. Drops the `.impeccable.md` auto-migration;
makes IMPECCABLE_CONTEXT_DIR a lazy escape hatch consulted only when the
default paths come up empty.

Setup is now four bullets in one list. The DESIGN.md nudge is gone; in
its place, a "familiarize with the existing design system" step that
calls out CSS / tokens / running app as authoritative sources alongside
DESIGN.md. The standalone `### Register` H3 stays for the cascade rules
(task cue → surface → register field).

New LLM-backed test suite at tests/skill-behavior/ runs five scenarios
against claude-haiku-4-5, gpt-5.4-mini, and gemini-3.1-flash-lite via
Vercel AI SDK. Captures real tool traces, asserts on context.mjs calls,
brand.md loads, and teach.md fallback. Skips cleanly when API keys are
unset. 13-14/15 pass; only stable failure is the v3.2.0-era gpt-mini S4
"don't re-run" regression. Adds @ai-sdk/google as devDep and the
test:skill-behavior npm script.

Touches em-dashes in skill/SKILL.md and four reference files so
`bun run build:skills` passes its skill-prose validator. teach.md and
document.md drop their "re-run the loader to refresh session cache"
steps since the agent's own write is now the freshest source.

* skill: merge orphan reference files into command sub-skills + inline S-tier invariants

Two related restructurings:

1. SKILL.md now carries the cross-domain invariants that catch defects in any
   project (contrast/placeholder/gray-on-color, similar-font pairing, text-wrap,
   tabular-nums, centered-stack default, Flex/Grid choice, auto-fit grids,
   semantic z-index, reduced motion, stagger vs section-fade, premium motion
   materials, focus-visible, placeholders-aren't-labels, dropdown overflow trap,
   button/link copy). Greenfield-only rules (theme picking, color strategy,
   tinted neutrals) live under "New projects only".

2. Reference files merged into their command counterparts:
   - spatial-design.md  -> layout.md
   - motion-design.md   -> animate.md
   - color-and-contrast.md -> colorize.md
   - responsive-design.md  -> adapt.md
   - ux-writing.md         -> clarify.md
   - typography.md         -> typeset.md (bolder.md redirected)
   - cognitive-load.md + heuristics-scoring.md + personas.md -> critique.md

   craft.md and shape.md "load references" lists updated to new file homes.
   interaction-design.md stays standalone (no 1:1 command verb).

Net: 36 -> 27 reference files. Same content, fewer files, no orphaned
reference loaded only from craft.md.

Also extends the routing rules: if the user's first word doesn't match a
command but the intent clearly maps to one, load that command's reference
and proceed as if invoked.

* skill: add sub-command + existing-project scenarios; move sub-command load to step 2

Adds three new LLM-backed scenarios to tests/skill-behavior:
- S6: `/impeccable polish` → loads polish.md
- S7: `/impeccable audit` → loads audit.md
- S8: existing SvelteKit project (PRODUCT.md + DESIGN.md + src/app.css +
  src/lib/components/*.svelte + src/routes/+page.svelte) → agent reads
  at least one project code file to understand the existing design system

S6/S7 surface a real model-floor: gpt-5.4-mini reads brand.md, reads the
target index.html, and just does the polish/audit without ever loading
the sub-command reference. Stronger SKILL.md wording didn't move it.
Captured in the README baseline as a known weakness. Claude and Gemini
honor the load reliably.

To fix Gemini on S6/S7, sub-command reference loading is now Setup step 2
(right after context.mjs), not step 4 — placing it before the model gets
focused on "doing the work". Step 3 (design-system familiarization) is
tightened to require at least one project code read even when a
sub-command reference loads in step 2, so Claude doesn't laser-focus on
the sub-command flow and skip the broader exploration.

Two new fixtures: MINIMAL_LANDING_HTML (a tiny static landing page for
S6/S7) and SVELTE_PROJECT_FILES (a minimal SvelteKit scaffold with
tokens, components, and a routes/+page.svelte for S8). Both designed to
look real enough that agents treat them as production code.

Suite is now 24 tests across three providers; baseline is 21-22/24, with
the stable failures being gpt-5.4-mini scenarios 6 and 7.

* skill: add reveal-animation safety rule (must enhance, not gate visibility)

Class-triggered visibility transitions pause on hidden tabs and headless
renderers. The italian-restaurant smoke produced a build where 2 sections
shipped opacity:0 because the CSS transition never advanced past
currentTime=0 (timeline paused). Added one-liner under Motion to prevent
the antipattern: reveals must enhance an already-visible default, never
gate content visibility on a class-triggered transition.

* skill: restore prescriptive cream/sand/beige paragraph

Bisection across 5 historical skill commits on Gemini 3.5 flash fast
lane n=3 found that 0cf2debd was the peak quality state. The regression
between 0cf2debd and HEAD came from simplifying the long anti-cream
paragraph into a one-liner.

Restoring the paragraph (with em-dashes replaced by parens to satisfy
prose lint) recovers ~0.22pt average on Gemini vs HEAD, with the
largest gains on:
- 09-luxury-hotel: +0.50 (restores editorial drama in photo-led briefs)
- 10-food-magazine: +0.67
- 03-italian-restaurant: +0.51

The paragraph's load-bearing parts are the (a)(b)(c) alternatives that
give the model actionable replacements for cream-tinted body bg
("saturated brand color as body", "true off-white at chroma 0",
"darker mid-tone tinted neutral"). Without them, the one-line warning
left the model with no concrete alternative.

Cross-provider validation showed the pattern matches historical
behavior: Gemini benefits from prescriptive scaffold (+0.12 over off),
Sonnet is roughly neutral (+0.01), GPT-5.5 slightly regresses (-0.11
matching the v3.1.0 pattern of -0.11). The skill has never been
uniformly better than skill-off across providers; this is the closest
achievable state without provider-specific rework.

The structural improvements from the prior restructure stay (file
merges, S-tier inlines, routing rule extension, reveal-animation
safety rule).

* docs: teach CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md / DEVELOP.md about the skill-behavior tests

Adds the `bun run test:skill-behavior` script to the test commands lists
in all three docs. CLAUDE.md gets a full `### Skill-behavior tests`
subsection paralleling the existing Live-mode E2E one: how the suite
works (inlines source SKILL.md, scoped tools, asserts on the trace),
which providers it always runs (claude-haiku-4-5, gpt-5.4-mini,
gemini-3.1-flash-lite — all three every run), the eight scenarios, the
baseline (21-22/24 with stable gpt-mini sub-command-routing failures),
auth via repo-root `.env`, and how to add a scenario.

AGENTS.md gets the one-liner plus a paragraph in Testing Guidelines that
points contributors at the suite for Setup-touching edits (SKILL.md
Setup section, context.mjs, teach.md, document.md, register / sub-command
refs).

DEVELOP.md gets a short Testing section that didn't exist before, plus a
nudge in the "Test across providers" bullet pointing at the new suite as
the automated way to do that.

No code changes.

* detector: add 5 new antipatterns (em-dash-overuse, broken-image, marketing-buzzword, numbered-section-markers, aphoristic-cadence)

Consolidates eval-side detection logic into the canonical impeccable
detector. Before this change, the eval harness had its own duplicate
implementations of em-dash, copy-slop, and broken-image checks. They
now live alongside the existing 28 antipatterns in the impeccable
registry, available to the CLI, browser extension, critique skill,
and eval (via the existing slop grader child-process call).

New antipatterns:
- em-dash-overuse: 5+ em-dashes in body text content (threshold
  permits legitimate prose use of em-dash; only triggers on AI
  cadence-level density)
- broken-image: <img> with empty src, missing src, or src="#"
- marketing-buzzword: SaaS phrase list (streamline / empower /
  supercharge / enterprise-grade / cutting-edge / etc)
- numbered-section-markers: repeated 01 / 02 / 03 sequence as
  section labels — the AI editorial scaffold one tier deeper than
  tracked eyebrow chips
- aphoristic-cadence: 3+ manufactured-contrast ("Not a X. A Y.")
  or short-rebuttal ("Sentence. No clause." / "Sentence. Just
  clause.") constructions in body text

Engine wiring:
- broken-image runs as a static-html element rule (selector: img)
  and a fallback regex matcher (for non-HTML files)
- em-dash / buzzword / numbered / aphoristic run as regex
  page-analyzers, factored into a new runTextContentAnalyzers()
  helper that both detectText (non-HTML) and detectHtml (HTML)
  call, so .html files get the same coverage as .css/.tsx

Tests: 166 detector + 12 browser + 24 fixture all pass.
Browser detector rebuilt (162.7 KB).

* skill: drop unvalidated anti-centering rule; add image-led hero carve-out

The anti-centering rule ("Don't default to centering everything") was
added without empirical support. We have a detector for it
(everything-centered, threshold ≥70%) that fires on 0 / 998 samples
in the corpus — never validated, never useful.

Meanwhile the rule was almost certainly responsible for collapsing
Gemini 3.5 flash's luxury-hotel skill-on output from the canonical
"full-bleed photo + centered overlay headline" cinematic hero (the
shape skill-off Gemini chooses 67% of the time) to a 50/50
magazine grid (full-bleed rate drops to 18% under skill-on, -49pp).

Changes:
- skill/SKILL.md #### Layout: drop "Don't default to centering..."
- skill/reference/brand.md ## Layout: drop the same rule; replace
  with a positive carve-out — image-led briefs (hotels, restaurants,
  magazines, photography) often want full-bleed hero with overlaid
  menu and centered headline; let the photograph be the design
- skill/reference/layout.md: drop the assessment question and the
  "asymmetric breaks centered-content pattern" framing

* homepage: add testimonials marquee section

A two-row testimonial marquee on a tinted graphite plinth, sitting
between the hero and the slop teaser.

29 testimonials sourced via api.fxtwitter.com (lightly cleaned: leading
@-mention reply targets stripped, trailing self-links removed). Avatars
downloaded into site/public/assets/testimonials/ so they're served
locally. Quote order curated for impact — both rows lead with the
punchiest quotes (Ben Davis spotlight, "Impeccable > Claude design",
"THIS. This shit works.", "Uninstall whatever frontend skill you're
using.") so the first viewport is loaded with the most memorable
testimonials.

Engineering notes:
- Section uses width:100vw + margin-left:calc(50% - 50vw) to escape
  main.site-content's max-width + side padding (cards now clip cleanly
  at the actual viewport edges).
- Marquee runs at 110s linear infinite. Both rows share the same
  duration so on-screen speeds match; track is doubled so the loop
  back to 0 reads as continuous.
- Hero min-height reduced from 100svh to calc(100svh - 115px) so the
  dotted divider and top of row A peek above the fold on landing,
  signalling the section is there.

* homepage: keep the hero demo clear of the fixed header on short viewports

The hero centers its content in the full viewport (the site header is a fixed
overlay), so on shorter screens the tall Live Mode demo tucked under the nav.
Raise the hero's top padding above the 97px header (113px wide, 108/92px when
stacked) so content always pins below the header while still centering on tall
viewports, and cap the demo frame to the viewport so the whole demo stays on
screen.

* site: rework "Design in production" section glyphs and audience band

Put the three how-it-works steps back into thin-line cards and drop the
overused browser-chrome bars from each glyph. Redraw the step 2 and 3
visuals to mirror the real Live Mode UI: step 2 shows the on-canvas pick
outline with an attached comment bubble, step 3 shows the floating
contextual accept bar plus the source-write confirmation. Re-treat the
audience tiles as verdigris-lined text (no card box) under a "Who it's
for" eyebrow, so each role reads as distinct from the gold step band.

* site: mobile pass — hamburger nav + designing hero overflow fix

The header was rendering inline nav links + GitHub button that overflowed
narrow viewports (~363px). Pre-existing display:none hacks hid Designing
and Live to make the row fit, but those items still belonged in the menu.

Header.astro: added a hamburger toggle button + inline script. The right
cluster (nav + GitHub) becomes a collapsible drawer below the header on
mobile, with data-nav-open driving the open/closed state and animating
the two-line glyph into an X.

kinpaku-kit.css: hamburger button (kinpaku-bordered glyph), mobile drawer
panel (solid lacquer-deep bg, hairline separators between rows, full-width
tappable rows), and overrides for the older sub-pages.css mobile rules
(horizontal-scroll mask on the nav, hidden [data-nav="home"] item, hidden
GitHub star label) — all redundant now that the drawer surfaces everything.

home-kinpaku.css: dropped the @media (max-width: 560px) block that hid
Designing / Live / GitHub. The drawer pattern shows them all.

designing-kinpaku.css: hero h1 "Designing with Impeccable" was overflowing
at narrow viewports. Three fixes:
  - grid-template-columns 1fr → minmax(0, 1fr) so the column shrinks to
    fit container instead of growing to "Impeccable"'s 472px intrinsic
    min-content width.
  - mobile h1 size override (clamp(2.2rem, 11vw, 3rem) at <=480px) since
    the display token's 3.4rem minimum is sized for desktop hero impact.
  - hide the decorative loop-wheel SVG below 600px (was overflowing 22px
    past the right edge).

Verified clean at both 363px and 403px viewports across /, /docs,
/docs/animate, /slop, /designing, /live-mode. scrollWidth matches viewport
width on every page (no horizontal scroll).

* detector: refine new rules + run provider tells in browser env

Follow-up to the detector port (rules landed in 7648af00):
- oversized-h1: flag long headlines set at display size, not punchy
  one/two-word heroes (length, not size alone, is the tell)
- provider tells (--gpt/--gemini) now always run in a real browser env
  (detector page, live overlay, extension); gating is a CLI-output
  concern only, applied in the Node engine return paths
- move theater-slop-phrase into checkHtmlPatterns so it runs in the
  bundled browser path, not just CLI/static (browser bundle excludes
  detect-text.mjs)
- hero-eyebrow-chip overlay highlights the eyebrow, not the heading
- gemini-tells fixture: data-URI images so the hover-zoom renders
- rebuild browser bundle

* site: migrate /detector lab to neo-kinpaku design system

Rebuild the detector lab tool shell on --ks-* tokens (lacquer ground,
gold hairlines, champagne/mono type) instead of the legacy warm-paper
palette. Swap the "/" placeholder for the real carved-tile brand lockup,
restyle the toolbar actions as kinpaku primary/secondary buttons, and
recolor the finding overlay from off-brand magenta to vermilion.

Update the global theme-color from #fafafa to #010101 (the sRGB render
of the lacquer ground) so the browser chrome matches the dark site.

* site: migrate /cases/neo-mirai to neo-kinpaku design system

Rebuild the Neo Mirai case-study page on --ks-* tokens: lacquer ground
(drops the off-brand magenta radial spotlight), Alumni Sans Pinstripe
display headings instead of the banned italic serif, gold eyebrow/labels,
gold hairline image frames, kinpaku primary/secondary buttons, and a
lacquer-deep command panel with a gold-bordered code block.

Opt .neon-case-page into the shared kinpaku site-header/footer chrome in
kinpaku-kit.css (per the "add new kinpaku pages to the selector list"
note) so the global header and footer go dark to match the page.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* site: consolidate kinpaku header+footer into one reusable .kinpaku-chrome class

The dark header/footer were not a reusable unit: the header was scoped to
a per-page selector list, the github star pill was home-only, and the
default footer was copy-pasted into four page stylesheets. Pages not on
the lists (like /cases/neo-mirai) fell back to the legacy light chrome.

Collapse all of it into one `.kinpaku-chrome` block in kinpaku-kit.css —
header, github pill, and default footer — and opt every kinpaku page in
via a single body class. Delete the four duplicated per-page footer
blocks and the home-only github pill. The home page keeps its textured
verdigris footer as a deliberate override, raised to body.home-kinpaku
specificity so it wins regardless of import order. Genuinely light pages
(privacy, tutorials) just omit the class.

Fixes on /cases/neo-mirai: footer and github star now render dark/kinpaku
(were legacy-light), and the content sections are wrapped in the .neon-case
container so they sit in header-aligned gutters instead of bleeding to the
viewport edge.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* site: migrate privacy + tutorials to kinpaku via a reusable surface class

These were the last two light pages. Rather than rewrite their per-rule
styling, add a reusable .kinpaku-surface class that remaps the legacy
--color-* / --font-* tokens to kinpaku values at the body scope, so the
existing legacy-token CSS (sub-pages.css prose, the pages' inline styles)
renders dark for free. Same trick docs-kinpaku/slop-kinpaku use per page,
lifted into one shared class. Pair it with .kinpaku-chrome for header +
footer.

privacy + both tutorials pages now carry both classes. Also force the
sub-1.2rem headings (tutorial card titles, prose h1/h2) back to the
upright body face: the legacy display face was italic serif, and the
kinpaku Pinstripe face reads wrong synthesized-italic at small sizes.

No light pages remain.

* site: re-add Tutorials to the /docs sidebar

Tutorials lost its docs placement across two refactors: the Astro docs
rebuild never carried over the sidebar tutorials list the old generated
pages had, and the kinpaku homepage redesign dropped the "Full
walkthrough" link. It survived only via /designing and /live-mode.

Add a "Tutorials" group at the top of the docs sidebar (matching the
command-category styling) linking the index plus all four tutorials,
restoring the old information architecture.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* site: make kinpaku the default — flip legacy :root tokens to dark (phase 1)

Repoint the legacy design tokens in tokens.css from light-mode to kinpaku:
--font-* now reference the --ks-* brand faces (retiring Cormorant/Instrument/
Space Grotesk), surfaces carry dark-lacquer oklch, and --color-accent is gold
instead of magenta. Values mirror the per-page kinpaku remaps.

Every live page already overrides these at its body-class scope, so this
changes the fallback (any classless/new page now renders kinpaku) without
altering existing pages — verified home, designing, slop, live-mode, docs
unchanged, and the deliberate-light demos (slop specimens, home's Aurelia
mock) still render light via their own colors.

First step toward removing the per-page remaps; those become redundant next.

* detector + slop: cream-palette rule, drop everything-centered, polish catalog

- new deterministic cream-palette rule ("claude beige"): flags warm
  lightly-tinted off-white page backgrounds; wired into static + browser
  engines, with fixture + test
- remove everything-centered rule entirely (no longer in the skill) from
  registry, regex analyzer (+ index-offset fix), checkPageLayout, and tests
- catch Instrument Serif in overused-font (regex + OVERUSED_FONTS)
- /slop: reconcile catalog (cream card in, everything-centered out; counts),
  and fix demo visuals — visible hairline border, gigantic clipped hero,
  more extreme crushed tracking, padded gray-on-color card, uniform-rhythm
  monotonous-spacing, long line-length line, elastic-overshoot dialog for
  bounce easing, real zooming image for image-hover; flip the demo surface
  off warm beige to a cool neutral

* site: shared docs sidebar + tutorial pages join the layout

Extract the /docs section sidebar into a reusable DocsSidebar component
and wire it into all three entry points so the navigation is consistent
across docs index, command pages, and tutorial pages.

site/components/DocsSidebar.astro (new): one source of truth. Loads the
tutorials + skills collections, renders Tutorials → Commands grouped by
category, and highlights the active entry via activeCommand / activeTutorial
props.

site/pages/docs/index.astro: swap the inline sidebar markup for the
component. Drop the "All tutorials" link — the dedicated tutorials
listing page wasn't earning its slot in the rail.

site/layouts/Doc.astro: same swap. Command pages now also see the
Tutorials section above Commands, matching /docs.

site/pages/tutorials/[...slug].astro: rewrite from a standalone page
(custom .tutorial-page wrapper, ad-hoc breadcrumb) to the full
skills-layout shell with DocsSidebar in the left rail. Tutorial content
now reads in the same layout as command reference pages.

site/content/tutorials/brand-vs-product.md (deleted): the skill picks
the register automatically from PRODUCT.md, so a tutorial telling users
to pick it themselves was misleading.

* detector: catch Tailwind warm-light bg utilities in cream-palette

The static engine can't resolve Tailwind classes to computed CSS, so a
`bg-amber-50` on <body> slipped past the cream-palette rule. Add a
class-list fallback that scans body/html for arbitrary `bg-[...]` values
and named warm-light utilities (amber/orange/yellow/stone), each run
through the same isCreamColor test so neutrals and over-saturated shades
drop out. Fixture + test for the class-only case.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* site: drop redundant per-page token remaps (phase 2)

With kinpaku now the :root default, the --color-* / --font-* remap blocks
in docs/slop/designing/live-mode-kinpaku.css re-declared values identical
to :root. Removed them, keeping only the --ks-muted alias (still read by
name in those files) and each page's shell (gradient bg, color, min-height).

home-kinpaku.css keeps its remap: it uses home-specific values (e.g.
--color-charcoal: var(--ks-text), --color-cream: var(--ks-lacquer-raised))
plus the --cat-* gradient overrides, so it is not redundant.

Verified designing (PRODUCT.md viz), slop (specimens stay light), docs,
live-mode unchanged.

* site: drop italic from 15 dead editorial-serif heading rules

Audited every font-style: italic in sub-pages.css and main.css against
the live markup. Removed italic from the 15 rules whose selectors don't
appear in any page/component/content/script:

  sub-pages.css: docs-home-card-title, docs-category-title,
    tutorial-embed-caption, skill-demo-caption, skill-source-card-subtitle,
    skill-references-heading, skill-reference-title
  main.css: hero-title-combined, hero-tagline-combined, impeccable-title,
    loading-state, install-primary-howto .install-path-desc em,
    install-howto-steps > li::before, install-step-status, consulting-title

These were dormant remnants of the retired Cormorant italic-serif look —
the kinpaku Pinstripe face renders them as bad synthesized-italic, but
no markup matches the selectors so nothing rendered. Removed only the
font-style declaration; the rest of each rule stays (whole-rule cleanup
is out of scope).

Kept the 5 live selectors (slop-section-heading, tutorial-card-title,
visual-mode-demo-caption, visual-mode-method-name, gallery-card-title)
per the "if they're not used anywhere" condition, plus .prose em (real
emphasis) and .prose blockquote (conventional blockquote italic).

* skill: brand-seed palette.mjs + Setup step to run it

New-brand color now starts from a curated seed color (129 OKLCH seeds)
instead of the model guessing or defaulting to warm-cream. The script
returns one seed + composition guidance (pure-bg architecture, perceptual
text-on-fill, anti-cliché moods, jewel-tone range), with inverse-frequency
hue weighting for fair rainbow exposure and deterministic --from picking.
SKILL.md Setup step 5 makes it run for greenfield projects. Curation
tooling lives in the impeccable-evals repo (tools/palette/).

* site: dedicated /changelog + /faq, epic v3.5.0 notes, Live Mode → Beta

Split changelog and FAQ out of the homepage into two standalone kinpaku
pages, linked from the footer (and a quiet hint under the Get-started CTA).

/changelog: every release inline (no collapsible), newest first. The
v3.5.0 entry leads with a one-line summary, a real before/after pair from
the GPT-5.5 eval corpus (luxury-hotel brief, skill off vs on), and a stat
row (74% cream-bg, 76% extreme tracking, 90%+ low-contrast — measured
across ~190 samples). Then five scannable bold-led bullets, biggest
takeaway first: per-provider skill compilation, the bias-fix, Live Mode,
the 7 new detector rules, the tighter skill. Before/after JPGs optimized
to ~470KB total (down from ~2.5MB PNGs).

/faq: the six support questions, each deep-linkable.

Live Mode is now Beta everywhere it surfaces: the /live-mode eyebrow
badge and note, the homepage bento tile badge, and the changelog entry.
The historical v3.0 changelog entry stays "Alpha" — accurate to what
shipped then.

Footer trimmed to the four links not already in the top nav (Changelog,
FAQ, Privacy, GitHub).

Version bumped 3.2.0 → 3.5.0 across the three plugin manifests; the
3.2 bias-fix work folds into this release rather than shipping separately.

astro.config.mjs: disable the dev toolbar.

* site: point /design-system hero at the m-01-v2-01 finalist

design-system.css referenced kintsugi-hero-v2.png, an untracked orphan
that was never committed. Repoint it at the committed m-01-v2-01 finalist
so /design-system and the homepage hero share one image, and the page
no longer depends on a file outside the repo. The v2 orphan moved to tmp/.

* build: sync harness mirrors + green the prose gate

Rebuild propagates the committed skill source (palette.mjs Setup step,
detector rule updates, brand.md) into the 13 harness output dirs and the
plugin subtree, which had drifted from source.

Also fixes the prose validator, which had been red on six pre-existing
hits across committed files:
- Four em dashes in code comments (Testimonials.astro, LiveDemoGbar.astro,
  index.astro) and one in skill/reference/live.md — reworded to colons/commas.
- Two in the slop catalog (an em-dash-overuse specimen and the
  marketing-buzzword rule naming "empower"). Those are intentional: the
  slop page documents every antipattern by example, so it must contain
  them. Exempted site/pages/slop from validateProse rather than neutering
  the specimens.

`bun run build` is now green end to end: counts validate, prose passes,
site builds.

* skill: rewrite no-section-fade rule to fix Gemini zero-motion overcorrection

The old rule ("whole-section fade-on-scroll is the saturated AI motion
reflex") drove Gemini to overcorrect into shipping pages with no motion
at all: motion-variety 39% / zero-motion 12% with the skill on, vs
~74-78% variety and ~3% zero-motion without it.

Rewrite keeps the legitimate-stagger carve-out, names the defect at
shape level (one identical entrance on every section) without
enumerating motion primitives, and adds an explicit clause that
suppressing the reflex is never grounds for a static page.

Validated on Gemini 3.5-flash (n=10, luxury-hotel + infra-platform):
motion-variety 39% -> 70%, zero-motion 12% -> 0%, staggered-reveal
stays 0% (reflex not re-inflated).

* release: bump CLI to 2.2.0 and extension to 1.1.0

Both ship the expanded detector: the 7 new rules (cream-palette,
em-dash-overuse, marketing-buzzword, numbered-section-markers,
aphoristic-cadence, broken-image, italic-serif-display) plus
hero-eyebrow-chip, with everything-centered removed. 41 rules total.

The extension settings page already supports toggling them: the rule
list renders from detector/antipatterns.json, grouped by category, and
disabledRules flows through chrome.storage.sync into the scan config,
which detect.js honors by rule id. New rules are toggleable with no UI
change.

* release: fix release.mjs for the moved changelog + add CLI/ext entries

The changelog moved from site/pages/index.astro to its own
site/pages/changelog.astro with new markup (cf-version / cf-entry /
cf-items), which left release.mjs reading the wrong file with the old
selectors. All three release commands would have failed at note
extraction. Point it at changelog.astro, match cf-version, and scope
notes to the <ul class="cf-items"> bullet list — that also skips the
lead paragraph, before/after figure, and stat row on the v3.5.0 entry,
keeping release notes to clean bullets.

Add CLI v2.2.0 and Extension v1.1.0 changelog entries (the shared
detector update: 7 new rules, everything-centered removed, 41 total;
plus the extension's per-rule toggles) so release:cli and release:ext
have notes to extract.

Verified extraction for all three labels: v3.5.0 (5 bullets),
CLI v2.2.0 (3), Extension v1.1.0 (2).

* fix: correct dev server port to 4321 and drop stale pnpm-lock

Astro serves on 4321, not 3000 as the docs claimed; update CLAUDE.md,
AGENTS.md, and screenshot-antipatterns.js. Remove the leftover
pnpm-lock.yaml from the Astro migration so Cloudflare's frozen install
uses the maintained, in-sync bun.lock instead of a drifted pnpm lockfile.

* site: rework /designing flow, rhythm, Live Mode mock, and CTA

Restructure the page so iteration reads as the core value, not net-new.
The four loop phases are wrapped in a track with a sticky scroll-spy nav
(Start/Iterate/Polish/Maintain) that pins under the header and highlights
the active phase; the surfaces section (skill/CLI/extension) moves out of
the loop into the post-loop context group so the loop runs uninterrupted.

Fix the iterate split: shared subgrid row tracks so the terminal and the
Live Mode mock align on the same baseline regardless of paragraph length,
wider intro measure (52ch, was a crammed 36ch), and a deeper picker stage
so the context and global bars breathe instead of stacking on the card.

Rebuild the Live Mode mock to mirror the real picker: carved-tile mark plus
Pick / Insert / Detect / DESIGN.md controls on lacquer-deep with the gold
border, and a /impeccable live entry line so the reader knows how to start.

Reframe Start as the hard mode, move h3 subheads off the thin display face
onto Albert Sans, and trim Start so it no longer dominates the loop.

Rework the closing CTA into two standalone raised cards (the bento plinth
made them read as boxes nested in a box), and fix the tutorials copy: there
are three walkthroughs now, and the brand-vs-product tutorial is gone, so
drop it from the CTA and remove the dead lane link to it.

* site: reorder Get Started so usage follows setup, link out to more

Move the /impeccable usage examples below the Chrome extension, CLI, and
Stay-updated block. Running a command is the logical next step once the
skill, extension, CLI, and subscriptions are all in place, so the section
now reads install -> set up the extras -> use it. Add a closing "Go deeper"
line linking to the Designing with Impeccable workflow page and the docs.

* fix: install compiled per-provider skill variants, not uncompiled source

`npx skills add` (and `impeccable skills install`, which wrapped it) installed
the uncompiled skill/ source verbatim: the skills CLI dedupes discovery by name
and picks skill/SKILL.md first, so installs shipped unresolved {{placeholders}}
and no vendored detector (#168).

- Rename skill/SKILL.md -> skill/SKILL.src.md so the skills CLI's discovery
  skips the source and falls through to a compiled .agents variant; update the
  build reader, skill-behavior harness, and docs to match.
- Refactor `impeccable skills install` to copy each harness's compiled variant
  from the universal bundle (real dirs, no npx skills, no symlink), with
  project/global harness detection and a --providers override.
- Fix stale unit tests (replacePlaceholders, readPatterns, transformer
  prefix/summary) that asserted removed pre-v3.0 behavior, and wire the three
  orphaned test files into `bun run test` so the drift can't recur.
- Split skills-cli.test.js: pure blocks run by default, network blocks move
  behind a new `bun run test:cli-e2e`; fix its stale update assertions.

* site: default to `npx impeccable skills install`, restore install-method panel

Get Started recommended `npx skills add`, which installs a single shared build
across harnesses. Make our CLI the default (it installs the build compiled for
each harness) and bring back the "Other install methods" disclosure the
neo-kinpaku redesign dropped.

- Homepage: primary command is now `npx impeccable skills install`; a native
  <details> panel offers the Claude Code plugin and `npx skills` (caveated as
  installing one shared build rather than the per-harness one).
- FAQ: recommend `npx impeccable skills install` to install, `--force` to
  reinstall, and note the npx skills shared-build caveat.

* site: reword craft tagline so it doesn't lead with "Shape"

The craft card's tagline began with the word "Shape", which reads like
the name of the sibling /shape command and made the two cards look
swapped (#166). Reword to "Design it, then build it, all in one flow."
No data was actually swapped; this is a copy collision fix.

* skill: rename teach -> init and expand its setup flow

Rename the `/impeccable teach` command to `/impeccable init` across the
skill, site, CLI, and tests. `teach` stays as a deprecated router alias and
/docs/teach + /skills/teach redirect to /docs/init.

Expand the command beyond writing PRODUCT.md/DESIGN.md: the same codebase
crawl now also pre-configures `.impeccable/live/config.json` (Step 6, with
CSP consent) so live mode boots with no first-time detour, and the flow ends
by recommending the best commands to run next from what the scan surfaced
(Step 7).

Fold two items into the unreleased v3.5.0 changelog entry: the init rename
and the brand-seed palette picker. No version bump.

Regenerates all harness skill output dirs and the _redirects file.

* docs: lead README install + usage with the CLI installer

Add `npx impeccable skills install` as the recommended install option and
update the Usage section to the `/impeccable <command>` form, dropping the
nonexistent `/normalize` example.

* test(skill-behavior): swap to production-tier models (sonnet + gpt-5.5)

Replace the cheap-tier default lineup (claude-haiku-4-5, gpt-5.4-mini) with
production-tier models (claude-sonnet-4-6, gpt-5.5) so the skill-behavior
suite reflects what users actually run. gemini stays on flash-lite.

Sync the docs (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, tests/skill-behavior/README.md): new
model names, cost estimate raised to ~$0.50-1.50/sweep, and the old 21-22/24
baseline reframed as previous-cheap-tier history pending re-measurement on
the new lineup.

* feat: self-updating skill via boot-time version check

context.mjs now polls a new lightweight /api/version endpoint at most once
per day (cached globally in ~/.impeccable) and appends an UPDATE_AVAILABLE
directive when a newer skill version has shipped, prompting the agent to
offer `npx impeccable skills update`. Best-effort and silent on any failure;
asks before updating; suppresses re-prompts for a declined version for a
week. Opt out with IMPECCABLE_NO_UPDATE_CHECK=1.

- skill/scripts/context.mjs: version read, throttle + anti-nag cache, directive
- scripts/build.js + _redirects: /api/version endpoint (from plugin.json version)
- skill/SKILL.src.md: document the UPDATE_AVAILABLE boot branch
- tests/context.test.mjs: coverage for cached/newer/suppressed/opt-out paths
- changelog: v3.5.0 entry
- synced harness skill dirs via bun run build

* test: cover the self-update path (network + LLM behavior)

context.test.mjs: add a localhost stub-server integration test for the live
fetch path (poll /api/version, cache a newer version, stay silent on
same-or-older, fail silent + stamp lastCheck when unreachable). Runs against
127.0.0.1 only, never the real site; uses async spawn so the in-process stub
isn't deadlocked by spawnSync blocking the event loop.

skill-behavior: add scenario 9 asserting the agent surfaces UPDATE_AVAILABLE
but never auto-runs `npx impeccable skills update` without asking. New
prepareWorkspace `skillVersion` copy-mode (so context.mjs has a SKILL.md to
version-check), env threading through runTurn -> execBash, and bash-output
capture to prove the agent actually received the directive. Passed on
claude-sonnet-4-6, gpt-5.5, and gemini-3.1-flash-lite.

eecdfa128e fix(site): style Astro-rendered <pre> blocks in prose bodies (#133)
The Astro migration switched fenced code blocks from the hand-written
`<div class="code-block-wrap"><pre class="code-block">` wrapper to
Astro+Shiki's auto-generated `<pre class="astro-code">`. The existing
CSS only targeted the legacy class names, so docs and tutorial code
blocks rendered with no padding, no border-radius, and no margin.
On top of that, the inner `<code>` inherited `.prose code`'s cream
pill styling and showed it through Shiki's dark theme.

Extends `.prose .code-block` rules to cover `.prose pre`, adds the
missing margin and max-width, and resets `.prose pre code` to drop
the inline-code background and border. Shiki's inline background
color still wins on `.astro-code`, so the box keeps its dark theme;
hand-written `.code-block` blocks on the case-study page get the
warmer oklch palette as before.
