From the second review batch: the best build of the fifth sweep passed the hero at 87% with the cover arch cut flat on the left (object-fit: cover on a box narrower than the shape), and legends, badges, and extra controls one or two cells wide slipped under the invented-ink floor. comp-spec measures the artwork's contiguous contact with each box edge against the page ground; the spec gate refuses such a box unless bleed is set. Human pass line landed at comp-diff 72-73; HERO_MIN stays 0.72.

font-match / catalog index
- Index schema 2 adds a third render, 48c (48px cap, ALL CAPS text). Caps headline crops have no x-height band and ranked against mixed-case renders as barcode faces; they now route to the caps render.
- Non-text families (barcodes, redacted, flow, dingbats, effect faces) are excluded from candidates.
- The distance adds a gross width and weight gap (log ratio of advance and ink density) so a face 50% wider or 35% lighter cannot rank first on run-length detail alone; the index stores those readings.
- Multi-line all-caps crops vote on x-height across lines: one line's crossbars no longer give the crop a spurious x band.
- With no browser, --rank records the catalog's nearest face (source catalog, size estimated) so the spec gate can close; the NEXT line and new-work.md say not to install a browser or hand-write a choice.
- font-match stamps the choice it writes; the spec gate refuses a chosen face it did not write (sessions typed Arial Narrow into spec.json to pass).
- IMPECCABLE_NODE_MODULES lets a harness lend a playwright.
comp-spec
- A region note that describes painted material (diagram, drawing, photo, texture...) under a code kind is refused at the spec unless codeDrawn is set: the exploded carburetor filed as chrome is a plate about to be redrawn in SVG.
build-phase
- The control ink-box veto applies only when the comp's ink is a discrete element and the build's box is too; a full-width bar told one session six times that 1376x87 was 1382x102 with no edit able to move it.

The first paid confirmation sweep showed the failure: models rendered the
three comps first and ran build-phase.mjs start after, so a session cut at
the composition pick carried no state.json and the resumed model followed
the conversation ('translate the comp into HTML now') instead of the
phases. Decision comps (.impeccable/mocks/decision/) are unaffected;
--force-mock overrides.
