Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 b1c5707fde Cross-harness, cross-OS: boot-time tool detection and native-first image gen
context.mjs now probes cwebp/sips/magick/ffmpeg once (which/where per
OS) and prints IMAGE_TOOLS, replacing macOS-specific prose; the
IMAGE_GEN_AVAILABLE directive leads with the harness-native tool so a
present OpenAI key stops reading as an instruction to bill it; and the
sandboxed board-start guidance sheds codex vocabulary.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 08c2323b51 Rebuild without asking, spawn the producer always, read the comp as a system
Three lessons from the Tortuga containment-map run. The first rebuild
directive now executes immediately, informing the user instead of
asking permission to fix a failure; consultation waits for a second
rebuild verdict or user-approved content at risk. The asset producer
spawns on every subagent-capable run even when produce looks empty,
because its manifest is the independent check on the inventory's media
and the skipped spawn marks every all-CSS failure to date. And the
inventory now opens by reading the comp as a design system (component
grammar, corners, line weights, elevation, type ramp), because the
sections the comp does not show get built from that record, and without
it the fallback is the stock kit: square boxes, 1px grids, bentos, hard
shadows.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 7b202c3223 Textures are raster by name alone
The condensation pass folded the old textures-are-raster-by-default
sentence into the medium gate's lighting-and-depth clause, and the next
codex run drove straight through the gap: woven cotton as 'layered CSS
textures', a black nylon band as plain CSS, and a physical evidence-tag
CTA as CSS shapes, so the produce bucket stayed empty and the asset
producer was never called. The gate now names textures explicitly,
woven cloth, paper grain, fabric, leather, brushed metal, with no depth
argument owed, and calls 'layered CSS textures' what it is: not a
medium.

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 5 166e4481e1 Let a concept record its aesthetic axis values
Three of the six axes cannot be read from a world's prose, and widening their
keywords manufactures signal rather than finding it. Depth's probe matched
worlds that said "no cast shadow anywhere" and "without perspective or depth";
motion and colour strategy describe properties the system rules never state, so
they place 28% and 7%.

An optional axes object on the concept records the value instead. Absent means
inferred from the rules as before, so nothing needs backfilling. Validated
against the axes definition when the caller supplies it, because a typo would
read as "unrecorded" and fall back to a probe already known not to work, which
is the quietest way for this to fail.

This is what makes an assigned wave measurable. If a wave draws "drenched" and
"simulated physics" before designing anything, the world it produces has to
carry those values or the assignment is lost the moment it lands, and occupancy
goes back to guessing at prose.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 827dfeb95e The primary action is signature material, not chrome
The Tortuga comp dissolves the Install CTA's edge into the storm's
particles; the build shipped a plain rectangle with four decorative
dots, and neither the builder nor the reviewer's rebuild findings named
it. The inventory now gives the primary action its own row and medium,
naming the shrink-to-border-trick failure as the compliance-token
version of commitment, and the reviewer's fidelity matrix lists the
primary action's treatment among the salient elements, with a
physically-worked CTA rendered as a plain rectangle scored contradicted.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 38d2c393dc Prove the hero before building past it
The Tortuga run showed the finish machinery working end to end, roll,
challengers, approved comp, honest labels, independent reviewer, an
earned rebuild verdict at the user checkpoint, and still cost the user
a full build to learn the hero undersold the comp: a glyph storm at a
tenth of the approved density under type half as compressed. Both
misses were visible the moment the first viewport rendered.

Two cheap gates front-load that discovery. The build section gains a
hero checkpoint: capture the first viewport and set it beside the
comp's before any later section, judging scale and density as
quantities. The inventory gains the same quantitative discipline:
field and texture regions record density and coverage, and TYPE rows
name the compression class and render one headline word against the
comp before anything is built on the face.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 adc798debb Arm the degraded-roll rerun with its own safety case
Codex's risk reviewer rejected the network-escalated roll rerun for
'contacting an unspecified external domain' and the assumed export of
project context, so the run degraded to no challengers. Both concerns
are answerable: the script's only network contact is one GET to
impeccable.style/api/roll carrying scope, mode, an eight-hex key, and a
re-roll counter, nothing project-derived. The degraded message now
states that verbatim and tells the model to put the URL and payload in
its approval request, so the reviewer judges the real action instead of
an unknown.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 bd1763764a Pull compositions from the deal until the expanded catalog ships
The composition pool (stagings) is not ready: too thin to help, and its
draws crowd the decision it rides along with. concept-seed.mjs stops
rendering the staging block by default; IMPECCABLE_COMPOSITIONS=1
re-enables it for catalog development, and the draw machinery,
rating-weighted selection, and mode scoping stay intact and tested for
its return. new-work.md drops the dress-the-staging-challengers
instruction and the FORM contract's staging clauses; the surface-scope
roll still assigns which of the model's own structures gets built.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 861682eebb Give the finish reviewer and documenter craft-floor authority
Codex's own post-mortem of the second hamster-wheel session: it loaded
the kicker ban, shipped five kickers anyway, and then the reviewer and
documenter 'compounded it by accepting, and even canonizing, the
invented label style'. Nothing downstream of the builder ever re-read
the floor.

The reviewer gains check 6, Floor: read craft-floor.md (now the one
skill reference it may read, passed in its inputs) and hold the
screenshots against the Refuse list; a banned element is a material fix
even when it matches nothing in the comp, because fidelity cannot
authorize what the floor refuses. The documenter gains the mirror rule:
a floor refusal lands in its not-canonized line as a carried defect,
never in DESIGN.md as a rule future surfaces inherit.

Also updates the live-reference contract test to match the applier's
condensed no-server sentence, which still carries the same guarantee.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 28af30eff0 Condense the grown skill files and harden the reviewer's verdict
Three subagent audits reviewed the files that grew through the last
rounds of patches. Their honest verdict: dense, not bloated; roughly
430 words of true redundancy came out with no rule lost, and every cut
they flagged as removing compliance pressure was skipped. Highlights:
approval recording now has one owner in visualize.md, the asset
producer's crop ban went from three statements to the deliberate pair,
its two transparency passages carried contradictory defaults (resolved
toward true alpha first), and the 450-word medium-gate wall split into
three paragraphs at zero cost. The producer also gained a mode-seam
sentence so a sketch run cannot return an asset manifest.

The reviewer's verdict is no longer soft: a derived disposition line
(rebuild / fix / ship) opens every return, computed from the matrix
rather than felt, recomputed after the verdict pass, and never
softenable by the parent, who must report it verbatim. The second
hamster-wheel run showed the parent inventing 'PASS WITH FIXES' over a
matrix with MATERIAL contradicted on the focal element.

Two additions from the same session's evidence: hard offset shadows
outside a neobrutalist world join the craft floor's refusals (codex
invents them without fail), and hookless harnesses must run detect.mjs
once before the finish review, because codex has no hooks and the
detector otherwise never sees the build at all.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 e54fd13a33 Close the line-art loophole and widen the rebuild directive
The second codex hamster-wheel run read the medium gate and still
assigned a shaded, perspectived technical illustration to 'Authored SVG
geometry': the world was an instruction booklet, so the affinity
clause's 'diagrams' blessed the downgrade, and the page shipped as flat
clipart against an illustration-grade comp. The gate now says style
does not move the boundary: perspective, shading, figure drawing, or
dense mechanical detail is illustration however line-drawn it looks,
and authored SVG ends where drawing skill begins. The craft floor's
sketchy-SVG rule carries the same sentence.

The reviewer in that run built an honest matrix, MATERIAL contradicted
on the focal element, and still emitted it as a fixable item the parent
answered with CSS. The rebuild directive now fires when MATERIAL is
contradicted on the focal element, not only when TYPE falls with it,
and every asset-requiring fix must say 'produce: <region>' so it cannot
be answered as a style tweak.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 f8a34335cb Let the surface own the sketch and comp aspect
A landscape frame was the silent default at every generation site,
which is a composition error before the build starts for native apps
and mobile-first surfaces. The sketch frame, the asset producer's
single-sketch contract, and the comp instruction now state it: portrait
at device viewport when the surface is a phone screen, landscape for
desktop web. The decision page adapts in kind: portrait art overrides
the 16/10 slot with its own exact ratio so nothing crops, and the deck
narrows so portrait cards line up side by side. The --schema guidance
tells the model the page handles either.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 88da3e7a97 Let the sketch carry the decision card
Cards widen from 27vw to 34vw and the media slot matches the 16:10
sketch frame instead of cropping it to 16:9: at the old width the
imagery read as a thumbnail above a column of copy, and the copy won
the attention contest the sketch exists to win. The whole image is now
a zoom target with a zoom-in cursor, not just the expand chip; chip and
PIP handlers already stop propagation, so the art click is unambiguous.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 4432b92bbb Harden the comp-to-build translation after the hamster-wheel failure
A codex greenfield build produced an excellent approved comp and then an
abysmal page, and the reviewer approved it. The failure chain: the
implementation inventory downgraded a photographic hero to 'silhouette
in SVG' and sculpted panels to 'material finish: CSS'; the builder read
'no photography on hand' as a license to avoid photographic rendering;
QA looked at one full-page thumbnail; the reviewer was spawned with the
builder's forked history and then scored fix claims instead of pixels;
and the output contract had no way to say 'rejected'.

The fixes, stage by stage:

- The inventory's medium column gets a gate: a human figure, product
  object, machinery, or lit material is raster whatever the stack, and
  such regions are regenerated cleanly at asset resolution with the
  comp and its embedded prompt as reference. Never cropped from the
  comp, whose effective resolution is reference grade; the asset
  producer's direct bucket closes the same hole. Dropping an
  image-native region is a user decision at the approval point.
- Generated imagery is a material, not a claim: evidence rules bind
  assertions, never render fidelity.
- The build thread's inspection becomes a region-by-region side-by-side
  against the comp at legible scale, never one full-page thumbnail.
- The reviewer spawns fresh, never with forked history (fork_turns: 0
  in codex), and gains a rejection lane: when TYPE, MATERIAL, and the
  focal element are all contradicted, the first material fix is a
  rebuild directive the parent surfaces to the user instead of
  patching. Verdict passes score recaptures only; the parent's fix
  narration is not evidence.
- The verdict-loop ceiling softens: two rounds ends an unattended run,
  but an attended session puts the open-items table in front of the
  user and lets them fund another round; any round that resolves
  nothing stops the loop.
- Comp approval joins the roll as skip-proof: question-tool errors fall
  back to the decision page, delegation is recorded in the brief and
  the sidecar and disclosed up front, and the reviewer treats comps
  with no recorded pick as a material finding.
- Craft floor: system display faces (Impact, Arial Black) as an
  own-world display voice and unicode glyphs standing in for icon
  systems are named failures.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 bb07a7519b Record the approved comp in its prompt sidecar
The surface brief was the only carrier of which comp got approved, and
eval transcripts show models routinely skip writing it, leaving the
choice unrecoverable. The comp's .json prompt sidecar already travels
with the mocks folder across sessions and machines, so the approval now
gets marked there too.

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 5 86b91a2003 Replace the invented area axis with grain and platform
The area taxonomy was wrong, and wrong in a way worth recording. It was
derived from Mobbin-style categories in the abstract rather than from what
the skill can be asked for, and measured against the catalog most of it
described problems that were not there: onboarding, settings, empty-state and
search each had zero entries.

Reframed against demand instead. A user asks for a docs site, an onboarding
flow, a landing page, or a data table, and those differ in how much of the
product is in play. Register already says what kind of work it is; grain says
how much: product, flow, view, region.

Named grain rather than scope because scope already means direction-or-surface
on every roll and 'surface' is already a register value, so a scope of
'surface' would have collided with both.

Platform is the second axis: web, ios, android. Unlike grain it is a hard
filter with no fallback, because a composition that leans on hover or a
pointer does not degrade on a phone into something slightly worse, it stops
working, and an empty deal is a visible gap where a broken one is not.

Both fields are optional and absence means eligible everywhere, so nothing
needs backfilling and no existing roll changes.

The third piece is the one a trace turned up. Asking for an onboarding flow
resolves to register=operate, grain=flow, and the catalog holds zero
flow-grain compositions, so the top-up would have dealt three plausible
single-screen compositions with no signal that none matched. The model would
have improvised the flow structure while believing it was handed one, which is
the same silent plausibility the axis exists to remove. Selection now returns
a match alongside the picks, and the rendered seed says when the structure is
borrowed and why.

Measured at the time of writing: 137 of 173 approved compositions are view
grain, product grain is empty, flow grain holds one.

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 5 9b2659f9c7 Move the area taxonomy to the dependency-free leaf
The roll API validates its `area` parameter against the surface's list, which
meant importing the taxonomy into a Pages Function. composition-catalog.mjs
reads the filesystem, so importing from there would have pulled node:fs into
the Worker bundle, the same trap WELL_TIERS hit. roll-selection.mjs has no
imports at all and is what both callers already load, so it owns the taxonomy
and composition-catalog re-exports it.

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 5 a94331baf0 Add the mode and area axes to the roll
Two gaps, both reported from real use. Worlds were drawn with no mode
awareness at all: selectApprovedChallengers never received the mode, so a
build asking for an app UI could draw six worlds that only make sense on a
landing page. And surface alone is too coarse for compositions, because
"operate" spans onboarding, dashboards, editors and settings, so an
onboarding flow could legitimately be dealt a settings composition.

Worlds gain `allowedModes` on the review record, beside breadth and rating,
because it is a reviewer judgment rather than authored content. Absent means
eligible in every mode, so nothing needs backfilling and no existing roll
changes. Applied per tier and skipped where it would empty one, matching how
minRating and strength already degrade. It is a ceiling the reviewer lowers,
not a category they assign: a world is an identity, and identities transfer
across modes further than compositions do.

Compositions gain an optional `area`, one level below surface, with a
taxonomy per surface (COMPOSITION_AREAS). Area is a preference rather than a
filter: a request reorders the ranking to put area matches first and tops up
from the rest of the surface, because the per-area pools are small and
dealing one on-target composition would be worse than three good ones. A
stable partition of an already deterministic ranking stays deterministic.

`--area` on the CLI requires `--mode`, since areas are scoped to a surface,
and is validated against that surface's list so a wrong-surface area fails
loudly instead of silently matching nothing.

Also validated `breadth`, which selection has honoured for a while with
nothing checking it, so a typo read as "general" and quietly returned a
narrow world to the pool.

Four new tests: worlds excluded from a mode stay out, absent allowedModes
stays eligible everywhere, a tier whose every world excludes the mode falls
back instead of starving, and an area-scoped deal prefers its area, tops up
to three, and reproduces from its key.

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 5 a92ba5f2b0 Call them compositions; single-source WELL_TIERS
The data layer has said compositions since the catalog was split, while the
code, the model-facing text, and the UI still said stagings. The rename was
held back by the selection logic existing twice; it exists once now, so this
is one pass instead of two coordinated ones.

Renamed: selectApprovedStagings, selectApprovedStaging, renderStaging, and
the model-facing STAGING GRAMMAR / STAGING CHALLENGERS / FIRST-SURFACE
STAGING INPUTS headings. The block that introduces them now states what
they are for rather than only what they are not: what is the cleverest way
to present, organize, or make interactive the problem in front of you.

Three places keep the old word on purpose:

- The rank salt, `${scope}:${key}:staging`. It is hash input, so renaming
  it would re-deal every roll anyone has ever reproduced by key. Verified:
  240 seeder rolls and 252 API rolls reproduce exactly.
- `Staging/hierarchy:`, the first composition grammar prefix. Inside a
  composition, staging names one of its four aspects, which is a different
  word-sense from staging as the name for the whole artifact. It is also a
  schema constant that 317 catalog entries are validated against.
- The wire fields. The API keeps emitting `stagings` and `staging` beside
  `compositions`, because the wire is the one place a rename cannot be
  coordinated with already-installed skills. Clients prefer the new field
  and fall back through both old ones.

Separately, WELL_TIERS had two definitions after the extraction.
roll-selection.mjs owns it now and concept-catalog.mjs imports it, in that
direction because concept-catalog reads the filesystem and a Pages Function
must not pull node:fs into its bundle. Imported and re-exported rather than
re-exported alone: a bare `export { X } from` does not bind X locally, and
validateConceptCatalog needs it, which cost one round of red tests.

Dropped concept-catalog's synchronous deterministicRank. Nothing imports it
since selection moved out, and leaving a second ranking implementation
around is how the first drift started.

Paul BakausandClaude Opus 5 9b43e9f176 Extract roll selection into one module both callers drive
concept-seed.mjs and the service repo's functions/api/_worldroll-core.js
were two implementations of the same selection, and the API core's header
claimed they matched "exactly". They did not: it had no breadth gate on
either pool, no rating weighting for compositions, and dealt one
composition where the seeder dealt three. Since the catalog never ships
with the skill, every real user rolls through that API, so those gates
reached nobody. Two copies is the defect; this removes the second.

Written as generators rather than plain functions because the callers
cannot agree on a hash. Node has a synchronous one, Workers only have
async crypto.subtle, and renderConceptSeed's local path is deliberately
synchronous so prepared eval sessions and tests can call it without
awaiting. The selection yields batches of strings to hash and resumes
with their digests; runSyncSelection and runAsyncSelection are the only
runtime-specific code, eight lines each. Forcing the seeder async would
have broken the eval harness; forking the logic is what got us here.

No roll changes. Node's crypto.createHash('sha256') and Web Crypto's
SHA-256 return the same bytes, verified, and 240 seeder rolls plus 252
API rolls across both scopes, five modes, three reroll depths and the
rating gate reproduce their pre-refactor output exactly. The 23 existing
concept-seed tests pass unmodified, which is the point: the synchronous
contract survived.

The service repo's core keeps its own copy until this is on main, because
its deploy materializes skill/ from main and would fail to resolve an
import that is not there yet.

Paul BakausandClaude Code 6c7f7b5cc0 fix: scope each keys during restore and fail loudly on an unenterable app root
Two review findings:

- restoreSvelteMarkup visited an {#each} key with outer scopes only, so a
  contract prop sharing a loop binding name rewrote the key: with prop
  name -> user.name and loop context "name", the key (name.id) became
  (user.name.id) in the accepted route. The key evaluates per item, so it
  is now visited with the loop context and index bound. Regression test
  verified failing on the previous code.
- enterLiveRoot silently kept the ambient working directory when the
  resolved appRoot no longer existed or chdir failed, letting a helper
  derive server, session, and source paths from the wrong project. Both
  cases now exit with a clear error naming the app root and the --target

Paul BakausandClaude Code 0c18cbc9ef fix: stop treating the child combinator as a prelude boundary when pruning
removeSelectorAt walked backward to find the rule prelude and stopped at
any '>', added so the walk would not escape past the <style> open tag.
That same character is the CSS child combinator, so pruning one unused
selector from a list like '.wrap > .orphan, .orphan' cut the prelude
mid-list; when every remaining fragment equaled the flagged selector, the
whole-rule branch then deleted from the cut point and left a dangling
'.wrap >' in source. A '>' now bounds the walk only when it actually
closes a <style ...> tag; combinators are walked through.

Regression tests cover a mid-list combinator prune and the dangling-
fragment shape (verified failing on the previous code).

Addresses two cursor findings on extractMatchingSourceCss plus an adjacent
hazard in the same removal machinery:

- Class matching is token-bounded, never substring: .btn no longer seeds
  .btn-primary and .stage no longer seeds .stages. A falsely seeded
  selector was an accept-time deletion of a hand-written rule, since any
  seeded selector the variant does not re-declare is removed as
  superseded.
- Tag rules that style the pick (h1, a, p) now seed the preview stub, so
  unclassed selections start from the real cascade. They are excluded
  from the supersedable set: tag rules style shared elements across the
  route and must never be removal candidates.
- Supersession removal is now bounded by ownership: a seeded class
  selector whose class is still used by markup OUTSIDE the replaced
  region survives the accept, because removing it would strip styling
  from markup the accept never touched.

Tests cover substring non-matches, tag seeding with a tag-free
supersedable set, and a shared-class accept where .card is used both
inside the pick and elsewhere.

Paul BakausandClaude Code a83d767cf9 fix: stop cross-project live session leakage and stale-adapter 401s
Field session on a nested SvelteKit app surfaced a self-reinforcing leak:
localStorage is per-origin, two projects reused 127.0.0.1:5174, and a
React project's leftover cycling session was resumed inside the Svelte
project. Its checkpoints then materialized a ghost session in the new
project's durable store that kept reattaching after every discard, and a
stale adapter module 401'd on live.js, hiding the picker.

Four fixes:

- Server: only session-creating events (generate, steer) may mint a
  journal. Progress events (checkpoints, mount acks, accept/discard) for
  unknown ids are refused with 404 unknown_session and never enqueued, so
  foreign browser state cannot create ghost sessions. Browser sends are
  gated so progress never overtakes its own creating POST (the Go-time
  checkpoint and generate are concurrent fetches; the first sweep caught
  the out-of-order arrival breaking every SvelteKit flow). Steer
  checkpoints now follow the steer event for the same reason.
- Browser: saved sessions carry the server's appRoot; a session stamped
  by another project is dropped at load time. Unstamped legacy state is
  caught by the unknown_session refusal, which clears local state and
  re-arms the picker with an explanatory toast.
- SvelteKit adapter: the layout import carries a token-derived revision
  query so a helper restart changes the module specifier and no Vite
  client/SSR cache can serve an adapter with a rotated-out token;
  live-inject --port reads the running helper's token from server.json
  instead of writing an unauthenticated live.js URL; script load failures
  log an actionable console error; and adapter removal is byte-exact
  (the old regex swallowed the next line's indentation).
- live.mjs resolves surface briefs from appRoot, then contextRoot, then
  repoRoot, matching context.mjs in nested-app repos.

Tests: server unknown-session rejection units, adapter revision/
byte-exact-removal units, and a foreign-session e2e scenario that seeds
another project's localStorage state and asserts it is cleared, no ghost
journal materializes, and picking still works.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 6c4620bf53 A sandboxed wait cannot signal the server, and EPERM was read as death
A codex session declared the decision board dead while the user was
still reading it, then proceeded without their choice. The wait's
liveness probe was process.kill(pid, 0) with every error treated as
gone, but a sandboxed exec cannot signal a process outside its sandbox:
EPERM arrives for a living server. Liveness now leads with the page's
own heartbeat in the state file, falls back to the kill probe, and
reads EPERM specifically as exists-but-unsignalable. The exit-2 message
also stopped inviting the wrong recovery: it now states this is a
server failure, not a user decision, and orders a restart and reopen,
never an unattended proceed while the user's browser session is open.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 430d74a12b The stack is the user's decision, and code is a medium of ambition
Two field observations. Greenfield projects with no framework never got
asked what to build on: the interview covered product truth and banned
aesthetic questions, and the model silently picked a scaffold the user
never chose. Init now asks once, static HTML, a named framework, or a
delegated choice plus any deploy constraint, and records the outcome
under a new optional Stack section, including the delegation itself, so
later work knows the choice was offered.

And the medium guidance named raster a dozen times while naming WebGL
once, so models never reached for vector or GPU code unprompted. The
affinity now runs both ways at the decision point: precise geometry,
shape systems, diagrams, expressive motion, shaders, and anything
interactive are vector and GPU territory, where a raster flattens what
should move, scale, and respond. The sketchy-SVG ban states its own
scope: it bans SVG imitating pictures, never SVG doing geometry.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 a68b74e787 Weight staging draws by rating, with catalog validation for composition grades
Stagings now honour approval ratings exactly as world challengers do, a
3-star earning a second ticket and a 1-star marginal keep leaving the
pool, which matters more here because per-surface staging pools are
small enough that an unweighted shuffle repeats a weak staging often.
Each ticket carries its index into the deterministic ranking so the
id-dedupe cannot silently collapse the doubled odds into a no-op, and
an all-marginal pool still deals rather than starving. The composition
catalog validates the new grades: 1-3, approved entries only. Tests
cover the weighting, the dedupe subtlety, and the fallback.

Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 fa1177ed9c Ship native subagent definitions for GitHub Copilot and Cursor
The github and cursor providers previously received only the generated
degraded/ inline fallbacks. Both harnesses support real custom subagents,
so the build now emits them from the same skill/agents/ source:

- GitHub Copilot: .github/agents/impeccable-<role>.agent.md with portable
  frontmatter only (name + description; omitting tools grants all tools,
  and Copilot has no documented model/effort/max-turns equivalents).
- Cursor: .cursor/agents/impeccable-<role>.md with name, description,
  model: inherit, is_background: false, and readonly derived from the
  agent's tool list (true only for the finish reviewer, which declares
  neither Write nor Edit). effort/max-turns are skipped because Cursor's
  effort option requires an explicit model id.

Agent bodies now also resolve {{scripts_path}} and strip rule markers in
the shared agentFormat pipeline, which fixes the previously unresolved
placeholder in the emitted Claude asset-producer agent.

The CLI installer places agents per scope: project installs write
<repo>/.github/agents/ and <repo>/.cursor/agents/; user-level installs
write ~/.copilot/agents/ (Copilot's user dir, not ~/.github/) and
~/.cursor/agents/, overwriting stale impeccable-* copies. Because
Copilot lets user-level agents shadow same-named project ones, a project
install warns when shadowing copies exist; Cursor gives project agents
precedence, so no warning there.

new-work.md and visualize.md extend their harness-naming clauses with
the Cursor and Copilot invocations. The degraded/ fallbacks keep
shipping for surfaces where the model still fails to delegate.

Paul BakausandClaude Code 69456364b2 fix: self-discard orphaned variant sessions instead of freezing the picker
Fixes #439. When a cycling session is abandoned and the wrapped region is
then edited or regenerated out of the source file, the resumed page used
to sit in GENERATING forever with the picker disarmed; the only recovery
was a manual live-complete --discarded. Now a resumed CYCLING session
whose wrapper cannot be found in source retries the read a few times
(HMR or an agent write may be mid-flight), then discards itself, clears
local state, and re-arms the picker with a toast. GENERATING restores
are exempt: deferred-wrapper flows legitimately have no wrapper in
source until the agent's write lands.

The browser tags the discard event orphaned:true; the server terminalizes
that session directly (phase discarded) and keeps the event out of the
agent poll queue, since there is no source cleanup left to perform and
the normal discard flow would just fail against the missing scaffolding.

New e2e scenario on vite8-react-plain drives the full repro: cycle,
revert source externally, reload, assert self-discard, terminal durable
phase, and a working picker afterward.

Paul BakausandClaude Code b9c1d86d68 fix: reject a valueless --target instead of falling back to implicit selection
A trailing --target, an empty --target=, or --target followed by another
flag used to degrade into implicit root selection, letting a mutating
helper (poll, accept, complete) act on the most recent live app instead
of the one the caller tried to name. consumeTargetArg now throws on those
shapes and enterLiveRoot exits with a clear error before any session
state can be touched. Unit tests cover the malformed shapes and a
subprocess test proves the helper body never runs.

Paul BakausandClaude Code 39f233ac24 fix: hydrate attribute-bound each values and guard style directives
Addresses two cursor review findings:

- {#each} bodies whose bound values appear in attributes (href={link.href},
  src={item.img}) now record attr slots; the browser hydrates them from the
  rendered attribute so component previews no longer mount with empty links.
  Single-expression attributes hydrate exactly; mixed values stay unhydrated
  as before. A new slot classifier also refuses shapes that would crash a
  shallow hydration item (deep paths, method calls, bare item renders) and
  routes them to source-preview mode instead.
- Style directives now run the mixed loop/outer identifier check before the
  free-identifier param check, so style:width={base + r.pct} falls back
  instead of minting a broken param.

Tests: attr-slot analysis units, crashy/lossy fallback units, an attribute-
bound anchor in the stateful SvelteKit fixture asserted through accept, and
a mountedDomProbe e2e hook that reads the hydrated href off the mounted
variant DOM (verified to fail when hydration is disabled).

Paul BakausandClaude Code 6997e4bdb5 fix: no unauthenticated path in live-server liveness
greptile-apps[bot]: the legacy fallback (server.json without port or
token) accepted a pid-only record on Windows without identity. Every
server.json this codebase has ever written records port and token, so a
record without them is malformed or foreign; it now classifies as not
live and resolution falls to the durable-session tier, the correct
recovery path for a crashed helper. The ps-based identity heuristic is
gone with it: authentication or nothing.

Paul BakausandClaude Code 16a84bc390 fix: authenticate the live-server liveness probe
greptile-apps[bot] escalated the identity ladder to a pid AND port both
coincidentally reused by different processes. The definitive terminator
was available all along: the helper serves an authenticated endpoint and
server.json records the token, so the probe now requires a 200 from
/status?token=... over HTTP. Nothing but our helper can answer that,
which closes the entire misidentification class rather than the next
rung. The regression test hosts its responder in a child process (the
probe is execFileSync, so a same-process responder can never accept
while the parent's event loop is blocked; production helpers are always
separate processes).

Paul BakausandClaude Code 9a3f5aa34b fix: portable port probe for live-server liveness
greptile-apps[bot]: the win32 branch skipped the port probe entirely
(bash /dev/tcp is not portable), so a reused pid on Windows still
classified as a running helper. The probe is now a spawned node
one-liner that behaves identically on every platform, which also drops
the bash dependency for minimal Linux environments; the ps identity
check remains only for legacy server.json records without a port.

Paul BakausandClaude Code 24d69675e0 fix: mixed loop/outer expressions fall back; globals are neither free nor bound
cursor[bot]: an expression mixing loop bindings with outer free names
(fmt(r.label) where fmt lives in the route script) was left verbatim, so
the detached preview referenced an undeclared identifier and failed at
mount, past the compile gate, because globals make it legal to the
compiler. Such expressions now mark the analysis unsupported and the
session takes source-preview mode. A globals allowlist makes Math/JSON
and friends count as neither free nor bound, which also fixes a latent
bug where a pure-global expression minted a nonsense prop.

Won't-fix on the same pass: the live-setup.md filename cross-reference
matches the repo's established reference-link convention.
