IMPECCABLE_CARD_BASE overrides the quality-bar URL prefix so eval
workers serve cards from the local checkout while impeccable.style
stays undeployed. IMPECCABLE_QUESTION_DISABLED makes serve-question
exit immediately with the structured-question fallback line, so
headless workers never block on a browser page nobody will answer.

Paul's directive: the rendered board and hero for each dealt world ride
along with the challengers, framed as a quality bar (the finish and
commitment level the build is expected to reach), never as a mockup to
copy. The seed prints QUALITY BAR urls per challenger, preferring
API-provided cardBoard/cardHero fields and deriving from the concept id
otherwise; new-work.md instructs image-capable harnesses to view them
for the world being built. Server side, the roll API now returns
cardBoard/cardHero per challenger (impeccable-site).

Craft-smoke finding (recovery lektor build): the model read ASSIGNED
INDEX 4 as challenger 4 and built from the challenger list. Challengers
enter only through fusion-and-weigh; say so at the assignment site.

The ship40 concept pipeline had reversed the proven a-series mechanisms:
the seed's roll decayed into a shortlist nomination that taste functions
(model ranking, candidate floor, simulated user) then argmaxed into the
safest card; the costume check returned as the Translation veto and
carrier-removal test; and the 07-15 rewrite deleted the calibration,
reflex-font lanes, color strategies, and commit-every-atom language that
had held off the cream-editorial default since the alpha era. Five of six
frozen craft directions converged on the same warm-paper family and both
builders obeyed them.
This lands the repair on top of the in-progress simplification:
- new-work.md: the script assigns the build index again on both scopes;
catalog challengers are fused (challenger supplies form and grammar,
product supplies every fact, clarity wins conflicts) and weighed on the
two proven axes only; attended runs present one fully committed
direction with re-roll and an optional steer instead of a ranked
lineup; the color-strategy picker, reflex-face list, saturated-look
calibration, first-viewport thesis and memory test, commit-every-atom,
scroll pacing, and prove-don't-claim return; the direction contract
returns as five lean blocks audited by the separate-agent finish.
- concept-seed.mjs: PROMOTED INDEX becomes ASSIGNED INDEX with
build-assignment semantics; self re-roll only on named factual grounds.
- craft-floor.md: hook-active sessions act on findings instead of
re-auditing; the Refuse list is framed as category defaults the brief
can earn; a closing commitment line keeps a ban list from being the
last word before code.
- codex.md / shape.md: contract references restored for flow coherence.
Adopts the concurrent session's ceremony cuts, softened challenger
instruction, seed SOURCE IDs and --candidate-count, detector-ownership
fix, and the removal of the hook-side contract audit (the audit now
belongs to the separate reviewer at finish).

A single staging input was too weak a counterweight to the model's
habitual page skeleton: beside six identity challengers it read as one
optional flourish rather than a real search over composition. Roll three
from distinct staging families so a roll tests materially different
hierarchy, sequence, and interaction laws.
selectApprovedStagings replaces the single-pick selector; the old
selectApprovedStaging stays as a count-1 wrapper for smoke tests. Re-rolls
exclude every earlier set, and an absent mode still returns nothing rather
than falling back across modes.

The public repo keeps the OSS promise surface: skill, CLI, extension,
tests, and the provider build. The site, labs, concept/composition
catalogs, image pipeline, Cloudflare functions, and authoring guide move
to pbakaus/impeccable-site.
concept-seed tests run against a synthetic fixture catalog; the plugin
icon and skill categories moved in-repo; build validation narrows to
README prose and non-site counts; release notes read from a sibling
impeccable-site checkout.

/api/roll deals deterministic challenger rolls server-side (same salts and
sha256 ranking as the local seed, verified bit-for-bit); the request log is
the impression record. /api/chosen takes the anonymous choice ping. Events
land in Workers Analytics Engine.
concept-seed.mjs resolves data in order: local catalog dir, roll API,
degraded promotion-only seed. --chosen sends the choice ping; DO_NOT_TRACK
and IMPECCABLE_NO_TELEMETRY disable it. API-dealt seeds carry the telemetry
instruction inline.

Regular-use guard ahead of the realistic-lane validation: forced
creativity must never supersede user input or product context.

Paul: no stochastic challenger-assignment mode (unreproducible bad draws
= undebuggable bug reports); keep the weigh-off. Every roll now prints
its key so any field report can be replayed with --from.

Contract-probe campaign findings (evals repo, notes/fable-oneshot-craft-plan.md):
a single model's resonance ranking is deterministic (30/35 identical
concepts across 16 framings); dice must come from the script, mirroring
the palette-seed result. Derived candidates stay grounded in the
audience's world + subject's cultural home; challengers win only on
identification x clarity; incumbent-with-deliberate-idea overrides the
roll. Validated at contract level on 01-observability + r10-lektor
(teletext ranks #3 for lektor; assigned index 3 produced it).
