+"""Automatic bounded re-runs for scheduled fires that never reached the model.
+
+Inspired by Claude Cowork (desktop changelog v1.46388.1, 2026-09-04): "automatic re-runs
+(after 5, 15, and 30 minutes) for a scheduled task that could not reach the model at all,
+for example right after the computer wakes behind a VPN."
+
+The class is deliberately narrow: the run must have FAILED with a transient network /
+DNS error (``cron.scheduler_preflight._is_transient_provider_resolve_error``) AND the
+agent must have completed zero API calls. Nothing was executed and nothing was spent, so
+re-running cannot double a side effect — unlike a generic failure retry (see PR #16512),
+which has to answer for one-shot dispatch accounting and mid-run side effects. Recurring
+jobs only: finite one-shots are pre-claimed by ``claim_dispatch`` (at-most-times, #38758)
+and must not regain a consumed dispatch here.
+
+While a retry is pending the failure notice is suppressed (Cowork re-runs silently); a
+run that reaches the model — success or not — resets the ladder. Disable with
+``cron.retry_unreachable: false`` in config.yaml.

-# Architecture Decision Records

-## 2026-07-13: Scope plugin manager state by Hermes home/profile (keyed cache)
-
-Status: Accepted
-
-Context:
-Hermes supports multiple profiles via different Hermes home directories.
-Homes are switched two ways in a running process: the `HERMES_HOME`
-environment variable (single-profile CLI/gateway processes), and the
-context-local `set_hermes_home_override()` (`hermes_constants.py`), which
-the multiplexed gateway worker (`gateway/run.py`'s `_profile_scope`) and
-subagent/embedded callers use to serve several profiles from one
-long-lived process. The override is a `ContextVar` and deliberately does
-**not** mutate `os.environ`, since that would leak one profile's home
-into every other concurrent task in the same process.
-
-The plugin manager was a process-global single-slot singleton
-(`_plugin_manager`). User-installed plugins are discovered from
-`get_hermes_home() / "plugins"`, and context-engine plugins (e.g.
-`hermes-lcm`) capture profile-scoped state — such as the LCM database
-path — at registration time. A single-slot cache meant:
-
-1. Switching homes via `set_hermes_home_override()` was invisible to a
-   naive "did `HERMES_HOME` change" check, so the singleton silently kept
-   serving the first profile's manager to every other profile in the
-   process.
-2. Even when a fresh `PluginManager` *was* created for a new home, plugin
-   modules are imported into `sys.modules` as `hermes_plugins.<slug>` by
-   `_load_directory_module`, and only that top-level module was ever
-   replaced. A same-slug plugin's *relative* imports
-   (`from . import state`) are cached separately under
-   `hermes_plugins.<slug>.<submodule>`, and Python's import machinery
-   resolves those from `sys.modules` first — so a profile switch could
-   silently keep serving a previous profile's already-imported submodule
-   code/state instead of re-executing the new profile's plugin.
-
-Decision:
-- Replace the single-slot singleton with a cache keyed on the *resolved*
-  Hermes home path (`_plugin_managers_by_home: Dict[Path, PluginManager]`).
-  `get_plugin_manager()` resolves the current home via `get_hermes_home()`
-  (which itself already consults `get_hermes_home_override()` before
-  `os.environ`), so both the env-var and context-local override paths are
-  covered uniformly.
-- `_plugin_manager` (the old single-slot name) is kept as a thin "last
-  manager returned" pointer purely for backward compatibility with
-  existing test code that does
-  `monkeypatch.setattr(plugins_mod, "_plugin_manager", some_manager)`.
-  When that name is monkeypatched to a manager the keyed cache doesn't
-  know about, `get_plugin_manager()` treats it as an explicit injection
-  and adopts it into the cache under the *current* resolved home, rather
-  than discarding it.
-- Both `PluginManager._load_directory_module` (initial/`force=True`
-  reload within the same home) and the shared `_clear_plugin_submodules`
-  helper (profile switch / test teardown) evict `sys.modules[module_name]`
-  **and every name prefixed with `module_name + "."`** before a plugin
-  slug is (re-)imported, so relative-import submodules can never survive
-  a reload or a home switch.
-- Test isolation (`tests/conftest.py`'s `_hermetic_environment` fixture)
-  calls a new `_reset_plugin_managers_for_tests()` helper that drops the
-  entire keyed cache and purges every plugin submodule from `sys.modules`
-  between tests, instead of only resetting the single-slot pointer.
-
-Consequences:
-- Per-profile LCM instances (and any other context-engine plugin) use
-  their own `{home}/lcm.db` regardless of whether the profile switch went
-  through `HERMES_HOME` or `set_hermes_home_override()`.
-- Plugin discovery remains cached within a profile for normal
-  performance, and re-entering a previously-seen profile reuses its
-  cached manager instead of rebuilding from scratch.
-- Sequential *and* interleaved profile switching — in tests, the gateway
-  multiplexer worker, or embedded callers using the context-local
-  override — no longer leaks context-engine state, plugin module state,
-  or stale relative-import submodules across profiles.
-- Regression coverage exercises the real production path
-  (`set_hermes_home_override()`) rather than only the env-var path, and
-  includes a dedicated relative-import leak test.

-# Cron Doctor Spec
-
-## Problem
-
-Scheduled jobs can silently degrade when a script is moved, a workdir disappears,
-a provider run fails, or delivery starts failing. `hermes cron list` shows some of
-this inline, but there is no compact read-only health check that can be run from a
-terminal, cron job, or CI-style smoke check.
-
-## Goal
-
-Add `hermes cron doctor` as a read-only diagnostic command that summarizes cron
-job health and exits non-zero when actionable issues are found.
-
-## Non-goals
-
-- Do not mutate jobs or auto-repair state.
-- Do not start/stop the gateway.
-- Do not inspect secrets or print credentials.
-
-## Acceptance criteria
-
-- `hermes cron doctor` returns `0` and prints a healthy message when active jobs
-  have no detected issues.
-- It returns `1` and prints grouped job-level issues when any active job has:
-  - last run failure (`last_status` not `ok`),
-  - last delivery failure,
-  - no `next_run_at` while still active,
-  - `no_agent` enabled without a script,
-  - script path missing/outside `HERMES_HOME/scripts`, or
-  - configured workdir path missing.
-- Parser, command dispatch, and focused tests cover the new subcommand.

-      <strong>Why this is the recommendation:</strong> Single contextual icon
-      (not four) keeps the title readable. Confirm button stays enabled until
-      textarea has content; the inline error appears on submit-attempted-empty
-      AND on blur if still empty. Cancel button stays clickable during the
-      PATCH (only the confirm shows the spinner) so users can abort slow
-      networks. Bulk-many shows an expandable list with per-task summary

-# Profile Builder — Dashboard-Native, Full-Featured Profile Creation
-
-Status: design proposal (not yet implemented)
-Author: drafted for Teknium
-Supersedes: PR #31781 (prompt_toolkit `hermes profile wizard`)
-
-## Why this, not the CLI wizard
-
-PR #31781 added a keyboard-driven `hermes profile wizard` in the terminal.
-The decision is to **not** build the profile-creation experience in the CLI.
-The dashboard already owns mature, separate pages for every element a profile
-needs, and a profile is just a HERMES_HOME directory — so the dashboard is the
-right home for a full-featured builder, and it can reuse everything that
-already exists.
-
-A profile = a full `~/.hermes/profiles/<name>/` directory with its own:
-- `config.yaml` — holds `model`/`provider`, `mcp_servers`, enabled skills
-- `skills/` — physical SKILL.md files (built-in seed + optional + hub installs)
-- `.env` — secrets
-- `SOUL.md` / `USER.md` — identity
-
-So per-profile scoping of Model, MCPs, and Skills is **native** — no data-model
-change needed. The gap is purely UX: creation today is a thin modal
-(name + clone + model + description), and you can only compose skills/MCPs
-*after* the profile exists, by visiting other pages and remembering to scope
-them.
-
-## What already exists (reuse, don't rebuild)
-
-| Element | Existing page | Existing API | Profile-scopable? |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| Name / Description | ProfilesPage create modal | `POST /api/profiles` (`create_profile`) | yes (args) |
-| Model + Provider | ModelsPage | `_write_profile_model(profile_dir, …)` | yes — HERMES_HOME override, already wired into create endpoint |
-| MCPs | McpPage | `mcp_config._save_mcp_server` + `/api/mcp/catalog` | yes — wrap with HERMES_HOME override |
-| Skills (built-in/optional) | SkillsPage | `GET /api/skills`, `/api/skills/toggle` | yes — config write |
-| Skills (hub) | SkillsPage | `/api/skills/hub/search`, `/api/skills/hub/install` | **only via subprocess** — see seam #1 |
-
-## Two architectural seams found while grounding this design
-
-These are load-bearing — they change the implementation, not just the polish.
-
-### Seam #1 — hub-skill install cannot use the HERMES_HOME override
-
-`tools/skills_hub.py` binds `SKILLS_DIR = HERMES_HOME / "skills"` at **module
-import time**. The context-local `set_hermes_home_override()` swap (which makes
-`_write_profile_model` and the MCP write land in the target profile) does NOT
-retroactively rebind that already-imported module global. So a data-layer wrap
-of hub install would write into the dashboard's *own* active profile, not the
-new one.
-
-The correct mechanism is the existing subprocess path: `_spawn_hermes_action`
-runs `python -m hermes_cli.main <subcommand>`, and `_apply_profile_override()`
-re-reads `sys.argv` at import in the fresh child. Prepend `-p <profile>`:
-
-```python
-_spawn_hermes_action(["-p", profile, "skills", "install", identifier], "skills-install")
-```
-
-A fresh subprocess re-imports `skills_hub` with the profile's HERMES_HOME bound
-from the start, so `SKILLS_DIR` resolves to `<profile>/skills/`. Correct by
-construction.
-
-### Seam #2 — hub installs are async, so create cannot be fully atomic
-
-Built-in/optional skill enabling and MCP writes are **synchronous config ops**
-and can be part of the create call. Hub installs are long-running git fetches
-spawned detached (`_spawn_hermes_action` returns a PID immediately). So the
-create flow is:
-
-1. `create_profile()` — make the dir (synchronous)
-2. write model (synchronous, HERMES_HOME override)
-3. write selected MCP servers (synchronous, HERMES_HOME override)
-4. seed/enable selected built-in + optional skills (synchronous)
-5. spawn `hermes -p <profile> skills install <id>` per hub skill (async, returns PIDs)
-
-Steps 1–4 commit before the response; step 5 returns a list of action PIDs the
-UI polls (same pattern as today's SkillsPage hub install). The builder's
-"Review → Create" returns `{ok, name, path, hub_installs: [{id, pid}]}` and the
-final screen shows live install progress for the hub skills.
-
-## Proposed backend change (small, follows existing patterns)
-
-Extend `ProfileCreate` and the create endpoint — no new endpoints, no rewrite:
-
-```python
-class ProfileCreate(BaseModel):
-    name: str
-    clone_from: Optional[str] = None
-    # Backward compatibility for older dashboard/desktop clients.
-    clone_from_default: bool = False
-    clone_all: bool = False
-    no_skills: bool = False
-    description: Optional[str] = None
-    provider: Optional[str] = None
-    model: Optional[str] = None
-    # NEW — all optional, all best-effort post-create (profile already exists)
-    mcp_servers: List[MCPServerCreate] = []      # synchronous, HERMES_HOME override
-    builtin_skills: List[str] = []               # synchronous enable/seed
-    hub_skills: List[str] = []                   # async spawn, returns PIDs
-```
-
-The endpoint already does best-effort post-create steps (`seed_profile_skills`,
-`_write_profile_model`). Add two more best-effort blocks (MCP write, hub-skill
-spawn) in the same style — a failure in any of them must not 500 the create,
-since the profile dir already exists and the user can fix it from the relevant
-page afterward. Mirror `_write_profile_model`'s HERMES_HOME-override helper for
-the MCP write (`_write_profile_mcp_servers(profile_dir, servers)`).
-
-## Proposed frontend — dedicated builder page `/profiles/new`
-
-A full page (not the cramped modal), stepped, each step reusing the existing
-page's component + API, targeted at the new profile:
-
-```
-① Identity   Name + Description (+ optional clone-from existing profile)
-② Model      Provider + model picker  (reuse ModelsPage picker)
-③ Skills     Tabs: Built-in · Optional · Hub-search
-             multi-select; "Start from default bundle" preset button
-④ MCPs       Tabs: Catalog browse · Manual add  (reuse McpPage form)
-⑤ Review     Blueprint preview → Create
-             → progress screen for async hub installs
-```
-
-Nothing writes to disk until ⑤.
-
-## Open product decisions (need Teknium)
-
-1. **Skills seeding default.** Fresh profiles auto-seed the default bundle
-   today. In the builder, should the skill step **replace** the bundle (pick
-   exactly what you want; offer a "start from default bundle" preset) or
-   **augment** it? Recommendation: replace + preset button.
-
-2. **Page vs richer modal.** Dedicated `/profiles/new` page (room to grow:
-   SOUL editing, multi-agent fleets later) vs a bigger create modal on
-   ProfilesPage. Recommendation: dedicated page — matches "full-featured / way
-   more options."
-
-## Verification plan (when built)
-
-- Backend E2E with isolated HERMES_HOME: POST a full create body
-  (name + model + 2 MCPs + 3 builtin skills + 1 hub skill), assert the new
-  profile dir has the model in config.yaml, both MCP servers in config.yaml,
-  the builtin skills enabled, and a spawned PID for the hub skill. Negative:
-  a bad MCP entry must not 500 the create.
-- `cd web && npm run build` (no JS test suite in web/).
-- Targeted: `pytest tests/<web_server profile tests> -k profile_create`.

-# Profile-Based Routing for Inbound Messages
-
-> **Audience:** Gateway operators and contributors
-> **Source files:** `gateway/profile_routing.py`, `gateway/run.py` (`_profile_name_for_source`), `gateway/platforms/base.py` (`build_source`), `gateway/config.py`
-> **Related:** [Session Lifecycle](session-lifecycle.md), `docs/design/profile-builder.md`
-
-## Overview
-
-By default a single gateway run uses one profile (memory, persona, tools). **Profile-based
-routing** lets one gateway instance serve **multiple isolated profiles**, selecting which
-profile handles an inbound message based on *where the message came from* — the platform,
-server (`guild_id`), channel (`chat_id`), and/or thread (`thread_id`).
-
-This is the inbound counterpart to multiplexing: instead of running N gateways, run one
-gateway and route per-community / per-channel / per-thread to a dedicated profile. Each
-profile keeps fully isolated state (`MEMORY.md`, `USER.md`, `SOUL.md`, sessions, tools).
-
-Routing is **platform-generic**: it works for Discord, Telegram, Feishu, Slack, and every
-adapter — not just Discord.
-
-## Configuring routes
-
-Routes live under `profile_routes` in `config.yaml`. Both the top-level and the nested
-`gateway.profile_routes` forms are accepted (the nested form is what
-`hermes config set gateway.profile_routes ...` writes).
-
-```yaml
-profile_routes:
-  # Route an entire Discord server (guild) to one profile.
-  - name: server-default
-    platform: discord
-    guild_id: "1234567890"
-    profile: server-profile
-
-  # Override a specific channel within that server with a different profile.
-  - name: support-channel
-    platform: discord
-    guild_id: "1234567890"
-    chat_id: "9876543210"
-    profile: support-profile
-
-  # Pin a Telegram group to a profile (Telegram has no guild_id — chat_id only).
-  - name: tg-group
-    platform: telegram
-    chat_id: "-1001234567890"
-    profile: tg-profile
-
-  # Route a single Discord thread.
-  - name: standup-thread
-    platform: discord
-    guild_id: "1234567890"
-    chat_id: "9876543210"
-    thread_id: "1111111111"
-    profile: standup
-```
-
-### Fields
-
-| Field | Required | Description |
-|---|---|---|
-| `name` | yes | Human-readable route identifier (used in logs). |
-| `platform` | yes | Adapter platform: `discord`, `telegram`, `feishu`, `slack`, … |
-| `profile` | yes | Target profile name (must exist under `~/.hermes/profiles/<name>`). |
-| `guild_id` | no | Server/guild (Discord). |
-| `chat_id` | no | Channel/group/DM id. |
-| `thread_id` | no | Thread id within a channel. |
-| `enabled` | no | Default `true`; set `false` to disable a route without removing it. |
-
-## Matching rules
-
-A route matches an inbound source when **every discriminator the route declares is satisfied**
-(conjunctive / AND). A field the route leaves unset is ignored.
-
-- **`platform`** must equal the source platform exactly.
-- **`thread_id`** (if set) must equal the source thread id.
-- **`chat_id`** (if set) must match the source channel **or** its parent — a thread in a
-  channel matches the channel's route (hierarchical match for Discord forums/threads).
-- **`guild_id`** (if set) must equal the source guild.
-
-> A route declaring **both** `guild_id` and `chat_id` requires both to hold. A channel match
-> alone does not satisfy a guild constraint — this is intentional and tested.
-
-When multiple routes match, the **most specific** one wins. Specificity is additive:
-
-| Discriminator | Weight |
-|---|---|
-| `thread_id` | 8 |
-| `chat_id` | 4 |
-| `guild_id` | 2 |
-| (platform only) | 0 |
-
-So a thread route (8) beats a channel route (4) beats a guild route (2) within the same server.
-If no route matches, the message uses the default/active profile.
-
-## How it works at runtime
-
-1. An inbound message arrives at a platform adapter.
-2. `BasePlatformAdapter.build_source` builds the `SessionSource` for the message. Every
-   adapter carries a back-reference to the running `GatewayRunner`
-   (`gateway_runner`, injected in `gateway/run.py`), so it asks the runner to resolve the
-   target profile via `_profile_name_for_source`.
-3. `_profile_name_for_source` runs the configured routes through `match_profile_route` and
-   stamps `source.profile` with the winning route's profile (or leaves it unset).
-4. Downstream, `_resolve_profile_home_for_source` chooses the profile home directory
-   (`source.profile` → active profile → `default`) and the session is scoped per-profile, so
-   each routed community gets isolated memory and conversation state.
-
-Because `gateway_runner` is injected for **all** adapters (declared on `BasePlatformAdapter`),
-every platform goes through this path — not just Discord.
-
-## Relationship to multiplexing
-
-`profile_routes` requires `gateway.multiplex_profiles: true`. Multiplexing is what
-activates the per-profile runtime scope (per-profile `HERMES_HOME`, secret scope, and
-profile-namespaced session keys); routing is the decision layer that picks *which*
-profile a given guild/channel/thread lands in. With multiplexing off, `profile_routes`
-is ignored entirely — behavior is byte-identical to a single-profile gateway.

-# RCA: SSL CA cert bundle corruption after `hermes update`
-
-**Status:** resolved by `fix(ssl): surface broken CA bundles before provider calls`
-**Severity:** P2 — degrades the agent into opaque provider/client failures until the user repairs deps or CA configuration.
-
-## Summary
-
-A partial `hermes update`, interrupted venv repair, or stale CA-bundle environment variable can leave Python TLS configuration pointing at a missing, empty, or unloadable CA bundle. The first outbound HTTPS client creation or request can then fail with a raw `FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory` or a low-level SSL error that does not name the broken CA path.
-
-## Root cause
-
-Hermes uses OpenAI/httpx and requests-based clients for provider calls, model metadata, gateway delivery, and web tools. Those clients inherit CA bundle settings from:
-
-- `HERMES_CA_BUNDLE`
-- `SSL_CERT_FILE`
-- `REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE`
-- `CURL_CA_BUNDLE`
-- the bundled `certifi` package's `cacert.pem`
-
-When the venv is partially refreshed, or when one of those env vars points at a file that no longer exists, provider client construction can fail before Hermes has enough context to produce a useful message.
-
-## Fix
-
-`agent/ssl_guard.py` validates CA bundle configuration before the OpenAI-compatible provider client is created in `agent/agent_init.py`. It:
-
-1. Checks explicit CA bundle env vars and reports the exact broken variable/path,
-2. Verifies `certifi` is importable,
-3. Verifies `certifi.where()` points at an existing file of plausible size,
-4. Builds an `ssl.SSLContext` from each checked bundle,
-5. Raises a typed `SSLConfigurationError` with a repair hint before httpx/OpenAI can raise a raw low-level error.
-
-`hermes_cli doctor` exposes the same check under `SSL / CA Certificates`, so users can diagnose the problem without starting a model session.
-
-## Recovery
-
-If the guard reports a broken custom CA path, fix or unset the named variable.
-For damaged Hermes dependencies, ask PM to rebuild the recorded dependency set:
-
-```bash
-hermes pm repair
-```
-
-Restart Hermes after a successful repair. Do not modify a selected generation
-with raw pip or uv commands. For a Nix or sealed installation, rebuild or
-reinstall through its package owner.
-
-For a custom/corporate CA setup, fix the env var so it points at a real PEM bundle, or unset it if Hermes should use the bundled `certifi` store.
-
-## Environment escape hatch
-
-Set `HERMES_SKIP_SSL_GUARD=1` to bypass the preflight check. This is intended only for sandboxed or managed-trust environments where the Python CA path looks unusual but downstream clients are known to work.

-# Research spike: plugin-architecture lessons from Pi and OpenCode
-
-**Issue:** #64180 · **Informs:** #64164 (event bus), #64161 (streaming hooks), #64162 (pluggable approval), #64165 (manifest v2), #64229 (lifecycle/ledger), #64230 (Plugin Doctor)
-
-**Method.** Both systems were read at source level (shallow clones pinned to a commit), not from docs sites alone: Pi (`badlogic/pi-mono`, now `earendil-works/pi`) at `eb79351` (v0.80.7, 2026-07-14) and OpenCode (`sst/opencode`, now `anomalyco/opencode`) at `c69abee` (v1.18.2, 2026-07-16). Claims below carry file:line references into those commits. Where something could not be found (ADRs, policies, timeouts), that absence was verified by search and is reported as a finding. Hermes ground rules from #64182 (additive-only, prompt-cache sacred, observer-first, fail-closed security) are treated as overriding constraints throughout — this report grades imported patterns against them, per the adapt-don't-copy rubric.
-
-**Headline.** The two systems are near-perfect opposites on the four design axes Hermes currently has open, which makes them a natural controlled experiment:
-
-| Axis | Pi | OpenCode | Hermes proposal on the table |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| Per-delta streaming hook | Yes — awaited inline, no timeout | Structurally absent (text-end only) | Observer per-delta + never-block contract (#64161) |
-| Veto semantics | Typed per-event result vocabulary (`{block}`, `{cancel}`, `"handled"`) | Veto-by-throw (bug and policy denial indistinguishable) | TBD in #64162 |
-| Guard-hook failure | Fail closed (`tool_call` only) | No runtime containment at all | Ground rule 4: fail closed on security-adjacent |
-| Plugin event bus | Yes — 33 lines, **un-namespaced** channels | None (plugins observe core bus, cannot emit) | Namespaced `ctx.emit`/`ctx.subscribe` (#64164) |
-
-Neither system has hook timeouts. Both have shipped hang-class or drift-class failures because of it. That is the single strongest cross-cutting lesson for Hermes.
-
----
-
-## 1. Pi (badlogic/pi-mono → earendil-works/pi)
-
-Extensions are in-process TypeScript modules (loaded via jiti) receiving an `ExtensionAPI`; no separate process, no IPC, no manifest permissions. Pi explicitly rejected MCP as its extension mechanism (Zechner, ["What if you don't need MCP at all?"](https://mariozechner.at/posts/2025-11-02-what-if-you-dont-need-mcp/)). Notably, Pi's founding "minimal, no hooks" stance (Nov 2025) reversed into a 33-event extension system within ~7 months — extensibility demand won; the no-MCP stance held.
-
-### 1.1 Hook/event taxonomy
-
-33 event types (`src/core/extensions/types.ts:507-902`). The load-bearing design choice: **every mutating event gets its own typed emitter with its own result vocabulary**, rather than one generic middleware pipe —
-
-- `tool_call` → `{ block: true, reason }`; argument mutation in place, explicitly "no re-validation after your mutation" (`docs/extensions.md:742-765`)
-- `session_before_*` → `{ cancel: true }`, first canceller wins, later handlers skipped
-- `input` → `"handled"` (short-circuit) vs `"transform"` (chain) (`runner.ts:1148-1188`)
-- `tool_result` → partial-patch accumulation across handlers (`runner.ts:835-883`)
-- `before_agent_start` → system-prompt chaining with a live `ctx.getSystemPrompt()` reflecting earlier handlers (`runner.ts:1034-1098`)
-- Observer events have **no return channel at all** — the observer/mutator split is enforced by which emitter the event flows through, not by convention.
-
-Dispatch is fully sequential async (`runner.ts:759-791`): every handler awaited one at a time; the only ordering rule is extension load order (project → global → CLI, `loader.ts:660-708`) then registration order. No priorities, no phases — and no community demand for them in ~8 months. Name collisions are handled per registry with explicit deterministic policies instead of dependency resolution: first-wins tools, suffixed duplicate commands (`name:2`), last-wins shortcuts with a warning plus an 18-key reserved denylist (`runner.ts:421-604`).
-
-Two ordering guarantees worth copying: extensions see events **before** the UI and **before** session persistence (`agent-session.ts:596-601`), and parallel sibling tool calls are "preflighted sequentially, then executed concurrently" (`docs/extensions.md:750`).
-
-### 1.2 Plugin-to-plugin interaction
-
-A 33-line shared event bus (`src/core/event-bus.ts`): `pi.events.emit/on` on **arbitrary string channels** — no namespacing, no declarations, no collision protection; per-handler try/catch and an unsubscribe closure. Everything richer (capability registries, dependencies) is deliberately absent; a community RFC to build richer coordination as an extension (pi#2715) was left to userland.
-
-### 1.3 Compatibility strategy
-
-No API versioning, no handshake, no deprecation annotations. In its place, three working practices: (a) loader-level alias shims that kept old imports resolving across the `@mariozechner`→`@earendil-works` package rename and a pi-ai API split, with pre-announced removal (`loader.ts:47-71`; `CHANGELOG.md:243`); (b) loud "Breaking Changes" changelog sections with **automatic migrations** (directory renames on startup, session format v2→v3 auto-migrated) for the big hooks+customTools→extensions unification (v0.35-0.37); (c) per-tool `prepareArguments()` shims for old argument shapes.
-
-Real breakage on record: pi#2860 — an internal session-management refactor made `pi.sendUserMessage()` after `ctx.newSession()` silently drop messages. The remediation pattern is distinctive: **stale-context poisoning** — after session replacement, every captured context getter throws a paragraph-long teaching error pointing at the safe `withSession` pattern (`runner.ts:514-527`; `docs/extensions.md:1223-1265` documents the footgun with unsafe-pattern code). Compat by making misuse loud, not by never changing.
-
-### 1.4 Failure isolation
-
-Contain errors, don't contain time: every handler call is individually try/caught and surfaced (red stack trace in chat UI), load failures skip only the broken extension, and a `pi -ne` no-extensions escape hatch exists. The **one deliberate exception**: `tool_call` has no internal catch — a guard-hook crash blocks the tool ("Extension failed, blocking execution"), converted into an error tool result the LLM sees; the loop survives, the guard fails closed (`runner.ts:885-906`; `agent-session.ts:454-467`; `agent-loop.ts:657-665`).
-
-**There are zero timeouts.** All handlers — including per-token `message_update` — are awaited inline in the agent event pipeline (`agent-session.ts:598, 728-734`). A hung extension freezes the agent; the changelog records hang-class fixes (pi#5687 background handles, pi#5115 shutdown drains). Mitigations offered are cooperative only (`ctx.signal` AbortSignal, Esc-abort).
-
-No sandbox, documented as a decision: "a partial in-process sandbox would be easy to misunderstand as a security boundary" (`docs/security.md:33-35`); the only gate is project-trust on load.
-
-### 1.5 Design-history record
-
-**Pi has no ADRs** — the Discord recollection that prompted this spike is not substantiated for Pi. Rationale lives in four places: "footgun" sections inside user docs (effectively inline ADRs), a 5,000-line issue-linked changelog (which records abandoned designs: the hooks/customTools split, slash-commands→prompt-templates rename, a fetch-override proxy abandoned for undici dispatchers), Zechner's blog, and issues themselves.
-
-### 1.6 Prompt/context construction
-
-Pi is the only surveyed system that treats **prompt-cache stability as part of the extension API contract**: extensions receive structured prompt inputs (`systemPromptOptions` — the same decomposed inputs Pi itself uses) rather than a final string; per-request context transforms operate on a `structuredClone` so session history is never corrupted; and cache-friendly dynamic tool loading (v0.80.6, pi#6474) activates tools additively via native provider deferred loading (Anthropic `defer_loading`) explicitly to avoid invalidating the prefix cache — with documented warnings about second-order invalidation through prompt-metadata changes (`docs/extensions.md:2254-2290`).
-
----
-
-## 2. OpenCode (sst/opencode → anomalyco/opencode)
-
-Server (Bun/Effect) + clients (TUI/desktop/web); plugins are npm packages or local TS files loaded in-process, with **two plugin kinds in one package** — `server` and `tui` entrypoints, hard rule one-or-the-other (`shared.ts:103-114, 293-295`). A v2 plugin API ships side-by-side with v1 (`/v2/effect`, `/v2/promise` subpaths), designed in a candid 516-line `PLAN.md`.
-
-### 2.1 Hook/event taxonomy
-
-One `Hooks` bag returned by an async factory (`packages/plugin/src/index.ts:74, 222-335`): ~16 mutating `(input, output)` hooks (mutate `output` in place; host reads it back) plus declarative registries (tools, auth, providers) and a single firehose `event` observer. The whole dispatch engine is ~13 lines (`plugin/index.ts:280-293`): sequential, awaited, load-order, later hooks see earlier mutations — ordering documented as a spec ("global config → project config → global plugin dir → project plugin dir"; v2: "plugin registration order, then transform registration order").
-
-**Veto is throw.** The documented idiom for denying a tool call is `throw new Error("Do not read .env files")` (`plugins.mdx:247-257`) — policy denial and plugin bug are indistinguishable in every consumer downstream.
-
-**A typed-but-dead hook.** `permission.ask` — the only hook with real decision semantics (`output.status: "ask" | "deny" | "allow"`) — exists in the published types but has **no dispatch site anywhere in the tree**: a permission-subsystem rewrite orphaned it, types kept compiling, plugins silently no-op'd (oc#7006, open since Jan 2026). This is the sharpest single failure mode found in the whole spike.
-
-### 2.2 Plugin-to-plugin interaction
-
-No dependencies, no registry, no plugin-emitted events. Interaction is (a) blind composition through the shared mutable `output` (last-writer-wins per field) and (b) observing the core event bus. The 2026 core bus itself is heavyweight — event-sourced, durable (SQLite, per-aggregate sequences, idempotent replay), versioned wire types, and a **backpressure guard**: `allBounded` wraps a dropping queue and fails slow subscribers with `SubscriberOverflowError` (`packages/core/src/event.ts:152-164`). Plugins get the untyped tail of a three-tier bridge (Effect streams → global emitter → `event` hook), fired **fire-and-forget** — an async observer's rejection is an unhandled promise rejection invisible to host error routing (`plugin/index.ts:251-258`).
-
-### 2.3 Compatibility strategy
-
-Lockstep versioning (`opencode` = `@opencode-ai/plugin` = `@opencode-ai/sdk` = 1.18.2) plus one gate: npm plugins may declare `engines.opencode` semver ranges, checked at load (`shared.ts:194-205`) — but it is plugin-opt-in, and local file plugins skip it entirely. Three generations of module shape are loaded simultaneously; superseded packages are silently ignored via a hardcoded `DEPRECATED_PLUGIN_PACKAGES` list.
-
-The community-experience record is instructive: v1.14.42 — a **patch release** — removed the whole `api.command.*` TUI namespace with no deprecation cycle (oc#26557); the aftermath is visible in-tree as a deprecated shim added back *after* the outcry ("Legacy `api.command` API kept so v1 plugins can initialize. Remove in v2", `tui.ts:87-120`). No written deprecation policy exists anywhere. Shims-after-outcry is the de facto process.
-
-### 2.4 Failure isolation
-
-Strong at the edges, absent in the middle. Load is staged (`install | entry | compatibility | missing | load`) with per-plugin, per-stage containment and user-visible toasts (`loader.ts:82-93`; `plugin/index.ts:215-249`). Runtime hooks have **no catch and no timeout**: a throw in a tool hook fails that tool call (the sanctioned veto), a throw in chat/transform hooks aborts the turn (session errors, server survives), a **hang hangs the turn forever** — the v2 PLAN explicitly lists "Transform timeouts" under *Deferred Decisions* (`PLAN.md:507-510`). Boot re-entrancy burned them: a plugin calling the SDK client during its own init deadlocked startup (oc#7741). The official troubleshooting page's first advice is "start by disabling plugins."
-
-Two mature exceptions worth stealing: the streaming hot path is protected **structurally** — there is no per-delta hook at all; text hooks fire once at `text-end` (`processor.ts:512-524`) — and the TUI runtime has scope-tracked registrations (a `Proxy`-wrapped keymap API auto-records every registration per plugin, enabling clean live deactivate) plus a **hard 5s dispose budget** racing each cleanup against a timer (`runtime.ts:122-226, 388-468`).
-
-### 2.5 Design-history record
-
-No ADR system; the `PLAN.md` for v2 is the exception and is better than most ADR archives — it names v1's mistakes (the returned-hooks bag, finalizer-triggered special cases), specifies ordering as a contract, splits replayable *transforms* from live *hooks*, and — crucially — carries an honest **Deferred Decisions** section (typed error model, transform timeouts) rather than pretending closure.
-
-### 2.6 Prompt/context construction
-
-Plugins can touch every layer, but the deep layers are gated behind an `experimental.` prefix (`experimental.chat.system.transform`, `experimental.chat.messages.transform`, compaction prompt replacement) — a deliberate two-tier stability promise: interception at operation boundaries is stable, rewriting the context itself is not. No cache-stability discipline comparable to Pi's was found.

-## 3. Adopt / Adapt / Avoid for Hermes
-
-Grading against #64182's ground rules. "Validated" = the proposal already on the Hermes issue is independently confirmed by field evidence.
-
-| # | Lesson | Verdict | Maps to | Evidence |
-|---|---|---|---|---|
-| 1 | **Typed per-hook result vocabularies, not veto-by-throw.** Pi's `{block, reason}` / `{cancel}` / `"handled"` enums vs OpenCode's throw-idiom (bug ≡ policy denial) and its dead `permission.ask`. Approval/gate hooks need enumerated results dispatched from the policy engine itself. | **Adopt** | #64162 | Pi runner.ts:759-1188; oc plugins.mdx:247-257, oc#7006 |
-| 2 | **Guard hooks fail closed; observers fail open.** Pi contains every handler error except `tool_call`, whose crash blocks the tool with an LLM-visible error result. Independently confirms ground rule 4 — and refines it: the failure mode of a *crashed* security hook must also be closed, not just its config default. | **Adopt** (validated) | #64162, #64204 | Pi agent-session.ts:454-467, agent-loop.ts:657-665 |
-| 3 | **Hook wire-up drift is the killer bug class: CI-check that every declared hook has a live dispatch site.** OpenCode's `permission.ask` sat typed-but-dead for 6+ months after a subsystem rewrite. Hermes already stores unknown hook names for forward compat (`register_hook`, plugins.py ~L1158) — the same drift is possible. A `VALID_HOOKS` ↔ `invoke_hook(` cross-check is a one-file test. | **Adopt now** (cheap, standalone) | #64230 (Doctor), CI | oc index.ts:261 + absent trigger site, oc#7006 |
-| 4 | **Deadline budgets on plugin callbacks — be the first framework to have them.** Neither system times out runtime hooks; both shipped hang-class failures (pi#5687/#5115; oc#7741, "Transform timeouts" deferred twice). OpenCode's own TUI dispose path (hard 5s, per-cleanup timer race) proves the mechanism is practical. Observer hooks: enforce a budget and log-and-drop. Mutating/guard hooks: budget + fail per lesson 2. | **Adopt** (differentiator) | #64161, #64164, #64229 | Pi grep: zero timeout logic; oc PLAN.md:507-510, runtime.ts:122-226 |
-| 5 | **Per-delta streaming hooks are viable only if non-blocking is structural, not documentary.** The controlled experiment: Pi offers per-delta and awaits inline → slow observer throttles the visible stream, hangs freeze it; OpenCode offers nothing per-delta → hot path safe, TTS use case unserved. #64161's "never-block contract + buffered-queue helper" is the right middle — but make the bounded queue the *only* consumption path (drop/coalesce policy included, cf. OpenCode's `SubscriberOverflowError` dropping queue), not an optional convenience next to a raw sync callback. | **Adapt** | #64161 | Pi agent-session.ts:728-734; oc processor.ts:512-524, event.ts:152-164 |
-| 6 | **The namespaced bus proposal is ahead of both systems — proceed, with their two omissions fixed.** Pi's bus works but has arbitrary un-namespaced string channels and no discoverability; OpenCode has no plugin-emit at all. #64164's `<plugin_key>:` enforcement, reserved `hermes:` prefix, advisory declarations, recursion cap, and deterministic subscription order have no counterexample in the field. Carry over per-callback isolation (both systems do this right) and add lesson-4 budgets. Fire-and-forget with return-values-ignored matches both systems' stable practice. | **Adopt own design** (validated) | #64164 | Pi event-bus.ts (whole file); oc plugin/index.ts:251-258 |
-| 7 | **Load order as the only priority system; explicit per-registry collision policies.** Zero configuration, deterministic, and no field demand for priorities in either ecosystem. Document Hermes's ordering as a spec the way OpenCode's PLAN does; pick a collision rule per registry (Pi: first-wins tools / suffixed commands / reserved denylist) instead of building dependency resolution. | **Adopt** | #64164, #64229 | Pi loader.ts:660-708, runner.ts:421-604; oc PLAN.md:144-146 |
-| 8 | **Host-enforced compat gate + written deprecation window; migration tooling over semver ceremony.** OpenCode's `engines` gate is the right shape but plugin-opt-in only, and its patch-release API removal (oc#26557) shows lockstep versioning without policy is social, not mechanical. Pi shows the complement: loud breaking changes + automatic migrations + alias shims *before* removal. Manifest v2 should carry a host-checked `api_version` range; the repo should carry a one-paragraph deprecation policy. | **Adapt** | #64165, #64179 | oc shared.ts:194-205, tui.ts:87-120, oc#26557; Pi CHANGELOG:243, 3530-3620 |
-| 9 | **Scoped registrations with auto-tracked disposal; poison stale contexts with teaching errors.** OpenCode's Proxy-tracked per-plugin scopes (clean live disable) and Pi's post-replacement context poisoning (silent race pi#2860 → loud self-documenting error) are the two halves of a robust lifecycle story — exactly what the #64229 ownership ledger needs. | **Adopt** | #64229 | oc runtime.ts:143-160; Pi runner.ts:514-527, docs:1223-1265 |
-| 10 | **Prompt-cache stability as API contract is real and Pi proves it's implementable.** Structured prompt inputs instead of final strings, `structuredClone` for ephemeral transforms, additive-only tool activation with provider deferred loading, documented second-order invalidation warnings. Strongest possible validation of ground rule 2, with a concrete reference implementation for cache-safe injection. | **Adopt** (validated) | #64167 | Pi docs:2254-2290, CHANGELOG 0.80.6/pi#6474 |
-| 11 | **Half-sandboxes: both systems refuse, for the same stated reason.** Pi documents that a partial in-process sandbox "would be easy to misunderstand as a security boundary"; OpenCode runs plugins fully privileged with path-containment only. Viable while plugin authors ≈ users; Hermes's Skills-Hub-style trust/scan pipeline is the nearer-term marketplace answer than in-process isolation. | **Adapt with eyes open** | security posture | Pi docs/security.md:5-37; oc shared.ts:89-97 |
-| 12 | **Events to plugins before UI and before persistence; boot-stage the plugin-facing client.** Pi's explicit ordering guarantee removes a whole class of races; OpenCode's plugins-as-API-clients design is elegant but deadlocked startup when a plugin called the API mid-init (oc#7741) — if ctx ever grows client-like powers, stage them ("unavailable until ready"). | **Adapt** | #64178, #64229 | Pi agent-session.ts:596-601; oc plugin/index.ts:142-147, oc#7741 |
-| 13 | **Neither system has ADRs — and both paid for it.** Pi's rationale is scattered across changelog/blog/footguns; OpenCode broke APIs in patch releases partly because no decision record said not to. Hermes's per-sub-issue design sketches (#64182 style) are already ahead of both; add an explicit **Deferred Decisions** section per design (OpenCode's PLAN.md's best feature) so open questions stay visible instead of silently unresolved. | **Keep + adapt** | process | verified ADR absence in both repos |
-
-## 4. Verified absences (findings, not gaps in the spike)
-
-- **No ADRs in either repo** (repo-wide searches for `adr`/`decision` artifacts). The Discord recollection of "ADRs describing failure modes" is unsubstantiated for both; the nearest equivalents are Pi's docs footgun sections and OpenCode's single v2 PLAN.md.
-- **No runtime hook timeouts in either system** (grep-verified in Pi's `src/core/extensions/`; OpenCode's own plan defers them).
-- **No written deprecation or plugin-API stability policy in either repo.**
-- Caveats: Pi's #2860→remediation causality is inferred from matching failure/fix, not a maintainer statement; OpenCode pre-rewrite history was not diffed (shallow clones); maintainer replies inside cited issues were not visible in fetched content.

-# Plugin Config & State Bridge
-
-**Status:** config + state slice implemented by #64227
-
-**Original design:** Topher Ross (@thebizfixer), RFC PR #58542
-
-**Concrete consumer:** kanban-advanced
-
-## Scope
-
-This slice adds two native `PluginContext` capabilities:
-
-- typed, namespace-jailed settings via `ctx.get_config()` and `ctx.set_config()`;
-- atomic, profile-scoped runtime data via `ctx.state`.
-
-Config schema registration, config defaults, and the cron facade from the
-original RFC remain separate follow-up work. No core model tool is added.
-
-## Config API
-
-```python
-def register(ctx):
-    endpoint = ctx.get_config("api_url", default="https://example.invalid")
-    retries = ctx.get_config("retry.attempts", default=3)
-
-    ctx.set_config("api_url", "https://api.example.com")
-    ctx.set_config("retry.attempts", 5)
-```
-
-Keys are **relative to the calling plugin**. The example above reads and writes:
-
-```yaml
-plugins:
-  entries:
-    <effective-plugin-id>:
-      settings:
-        api_url: https://api.example.com
-        retry:
-          attempts: 5
-```
-
-`<effective-plugin-id>` is `manifest.key` when present, otherwise
-`manifest.name`. `settings` is the canonical namespace chosen after the issue
-discussion in #64227/#67531. For migration safety, reads fall back to the former
-`plugins.entries.<id>.config.*` subtree only when the canonical value is absent.
-Writes always target `settings`; they do not rewrite or delete legacy values.
-
-### Namespace jail
-
-The API does not accept full config paths. A plugin can never use it to inspect
-or change arbitrary Hermes configuration.
-
-Accepted:
-
-```python
-ctx.get_config("endpoint")
-ctx.set_config("retry.policy", {"attempts": 3})
-```
-
-Rejected with `ValueError` and a warning log:
-
-```python
-ctx.get_config("security.approval_mode")
-ctx.set_config("model.provider", "attacker-proxy")
-ctx.set_config("plugins.entries.other.settings.token", "...")
-ctx.set_config("../../security.approval_mode", "always_allow")
-ctx.set_config(r"..\..\model.provider", "attacker-proxy")
-```
-
-There is no global read allowlist: `ctx.profile_name` already exposes the only
-small host fact requested by the RFC. Settings writes use Hermes'
-profile-aware config loader/saver and atomic YAML replacement. The bridge
-validates the existing YAML before writing so malformed config is never
-silently replaced. Every operation resolves the active context-local
-`HERMES_HOME`, so one globally loaded plugin context follows multiplexed
-profile turns without crossing profile data.
-
-## Durable state API
-
-Use state for plugin-owned runtime data such as cursors, dedupe sets, and
-caches. Do not put those values in user-owned config.
-
-```python
-def register(ctx):
-    cursor = ctx.state.get("cursor", default={"page": 0})
-    ctx.state.set("cursor", {"page": cursor["page"] + 1})
-```
-
-The facade stores one JSON object at:
-
-```text
-<HERMES_HOME>/plugin-data/<plugin-data-namespace>/state.json
-```
-
-Portable Agent Plugins use their existing `PLUGIN_DATA` namespace exactly.
-Native and nested plugin ids use the same collision-resistant, Windows-safe
-namespace algorithm. `ctx.state.data_dir` exposes the directory and
-`ctx.state.path` exposes the JSON file when a plugin needs to inspect its own
-location.
-
-### State guarantees
-
-- **Profile isolation:** the data root resolves from the active context-local
-  Hermes home on every operation.
-- **Atomic replacement:** state writes use temp-file + `fsync` + `os.replace`.
-- **Concurrent updates:** a sibling lock file serializes read-modify-write across
-  threads and processes (`fcntl` on POSIX, `msvcrt` on Windows).
-- **Quota:** the complete serialized state is limited to 10 MiB per plugin. A
-  rejected update leaves the previous file untouched.
-- **Fail closed:** malformed/non-object JSON is reported and never overwritten.
-- **Typed values:** values must be JSON-serializable.
-
-State keys are 1–128 characters and may contain letters, numbers, `_`, `-`,
-`.`, or `:`. Path separators and `..` are rejected.
-
-## State vs. config
-
-| Data | API | Ownership | Example |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| User-visible behavior | `ctx.get_config` / `ctx.set_config` | User/plugin settings in `config.yaml` | endpoint, timeout, feature mode |
-| Runtime bookkeeping | `ctx.state.get` / `ctx.state.set` | Plugin data under `plugin-data/` | cursor, cache, dedupe ids |
-
-Both APIs are additive. Existing plugins that perform their own file I/O keep
-working, but new plugins should use this bridge for stable profile and Windows
-semantics.
-
-## Verification contract
-
-The implementation is covered with real temporary-Hermes-home tests for:
-
-- fixture-plugin discovery and config/state round trips;
-- canonical `settings` writes and legacy `config` read fallback;
-- direct global, cross-plugin, POSIX traversal, and Windows traversal rejection;
-- concurrent settings writes without lost siblings;
-- cross-thread and cross-process state updates;
-- atomic quota rejection and malformed-state/config preservation;
-- two-profile isolation after the ambient profile changes;
-- Unicode and Windows-style path values.

+"""Local A/B harness for `hermes auth add openrouter --type oauth` against a FAKE OpenRouter.
+
+Runs the REAL entry point (``hermes_cli.auth_commands.auth_add_command``) with a temp HERMES_HOME.
+Only the network authority is replaced: ``webbrowser.open`` is swapped for a scripted "browser"
+that follows the auth URL's ``callback_url`` the way openrouter.ai would (redirecting the loopback
+listener with ``?code=``), and ``OPENROUTER_AUTH_KEYS_URL`` points at a local fake code-exchange
+server that enforces OpenRouter's documented contract (S256 verifier check, single-use code, 403).
+
+Scenarios (each prints PASS/FAIL, exit code = number of failures):
+  legit          full flow → pool entry written, auth_type=api_key, source=manual:openrouter_pkce
+  wrong_state    browser redirects to a different callback path (forged nonce) → 404, no exchange
+  replayed_code  code already consumed at the fake server → 403 → AuthError, nothing persisted
+  malformed      exchange returns JSON without "key" → AuthError, nothing persisted
+  api_key_path   `hermes auth add openrouter --api-key` still works with no --type (regression)
+
+Usage: HERMES_PYTHON=<venv python> python3 evals/openrouter_pkce_ab/harness.py [--json OUT]
+Run against origin/main to see the BEFORE state (every oauth scenario fails with SystemExit
+"not implemented"), then against the salvage branch for AFTER.

+(``tui_gateway/methods_session`` ``session.status``) all report the same session facts —
+id, home path, title, model route, created / last-activity stamps, lifetime tokens, running
+flag. Each used to derive them independently (three ``getattr(agent, "model")`` fallback
+chains, three ``updated_at`` candidate scans, three timestamp formats to keep aligned).
+They now all call :func:`build_status_fields`; a surface only adds its own header, labels
+(the gateway translates through ``t("gateway.status.*")``) and surface-specific extras.

+"""Hold a state.db writer's WAL-mode file locks in a form a stray ``close()`` cannot cancel.
+
+SQLite protects a live WAL generation with two POSIX advisory locks: a SHARED lock on the main
+file's lock range and a shared lock on the DMS byte of ``state.db-shm``. A sibling process may
+checkpoint and unlink ``-wal``/``-shm`` at its close only after taking both EXCLUSIVE. POSIX locks
+are per process, so any ``open()``/``close()`` of those two files inside the holder — a raw probe,
+a plugin, a tool reading ``~/.hermes`` — cancels both (sqlite.org/howtocorrupt.html §2.2) and the
+next foreign close strands the holder on a deleted generation (``DeletedWalGenerationError``).
+
+This module adds the same two ranges as *open file description* locks (``F_OFD_SETLK``) on the
+descriptors SQLite itself holds. OFD locks belong to the description, not the process: a stray
+``close()`` elsewhere cannot cancel them, they die with the connection's own descriptor (nothing
+extra to track or retire), and they conflict with a foreign EXCLUSIVE exactly like SQLite's own,
+so the sibling's close-time unlink is refused while a guarded handle is open. The guard is
+lifted before the handle's own close so a true last close still ends the generation normally.
+No-op on Windows and on runtimes without OFD locks.
+
+Ownership model: the guard is a property of the *descriptor*, and a descriptor number is
+reusable. Each ``hold()`` therefore locks every matching descriptor unconditionally (an OFD
+re-lock on an already-locked description is idempotent) and ``release()`` unlocks only while
+another handle in this process still needs the range — tracked by handle count per INODE, not
+per fd, so a recycled fd number can never be mistaken for a surviving lock.

+# AI Presenter Video
+
+Turn a topic (or finished script) plus ONE authorized adult presenter image
+into a complete, publish-ready presenter-led video: locked narration, avatar
+generation with lip-sync QA, captions, deterministic editing, loudness-normalized
+master/share encodes, and machine + visual acceptance reports.
+
+Use this skill for new presenter videos AND for continuing, revising,
+captioning, lip-sync-repairing, or re-exporting an existing presenter-video
+job. The workflow is provider-neutral: pick generation capabilities from what
+is actually available in the session (FAL video/image models via
+`image_generate` and the video-gen plugin, TTS via `text_to_speech`, ASR via
+the whisper/STT tooling, ffmpeg for everything deterministic).
+
+> Ported from cclank/lanshu-create-ai-presenter-video (MIT). Upstream body
+> kept substantively verbatim in `references/`; Hermes adaptations live in
+> this hub file. Scripts are deterministic (no network, no credentials).
+
+## Hermes adaptations (read first)
+
+- **Skill dir resolution** — upstream hardcoded its own agent's skills path.
+  In Hermes the loader expands `${HERMES_SKILL_DIR}` to this skill's installed
+  directory, so every command below uses that token directly:
+
+  ```bash
+  SKILL_DIR="${HERMES_SKILL_DIR}"
+  ```
+
+  Shell variables do not persist between tool calls — re-paste the assignment
+  (or the expanded path) in each terminal call that uses it.
+- **Capability mapping** — where the references say "a voice generation
+  capability", use `text_to_speech` (OpenAI/Edge/ElevenLabs per user config);
+  "presenter/avatar generation" → FAL image-to-video families (Kling, Wan,
+  MiniMax H3 etc.) through the configured video tooling, or an avatar/lipsync
+  endpoint the user has access to; "word-timestamp ASR" → whisper via the STT
+  tooling or `faster-whisper` in a venv; "deterministic compositor" → ffmpeg
+  filtergraphs, or the `hyperframes` skill when installed (the editing
+  reference has a HyperFrames section that maps directly onto it).
+- **Visual QA** — do the "normal-speed visual review" steps with
+  `vision_analyze` on the generated contact sheet plus sampled frames
+  (identity, mouth timing, hands, blinking, continuity). Numeric checks come
+  from the scripts' ffprobe output.
+- **Paid-generation consent** — remote avatar/TTS generation is billable.
+  Follow the upstream operating rules: before the first paid call state the
+  uploaded assets, requested seconds, known cost, pilot size, and retry
+  ceiling, and get the user's explicit go-ahead. Never upload the presenter
+  image to a remote provider before `remote_upload_approved` is true in
+  `job.json`.
+- **Consent flags live under `input`** — `rights_confirmed`,
+  `adult_presenter_confirmed`, `remote_upload_approved`, and
+  `voice_clone_approved` sit inside the `input` object of `job.json` (init
+  flags set them; hand-editing must target `input.*`, not the job root).
+  `manual_input_review.*` sits at the root. `preflight.py` distinguishes
+  `errors` (block everything) from `remote_blockers` (block only remote
+  generation) — local script/audio work may proceed while remote is blocked.
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. **Start or resume a job.** New job:
+
+   ```bash
+   python3 "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/init_job.py" \
+     --job-dir ~/Videos/my-presenter-video \
+     --presenter-image /path/to/presenter.png \
+     --topic "explain context engineering in one minute" \
+     --duration 60 --aspect 9:16 \
+     --rights-confirmed --adult-presenter-confirmed
+   ```
+
+   Use `--script` for an existing script file; other flags: `--voice-sample`,
+   `--supporting-media`, `--width`, `--height`, `--fps`, `--watermark`,
+   `--cta`. For an existing job, read `job.json` + QA reports and resume from
+   the earliest unfinished state — never regenerate accepted work.
+
+2. **Manual input review.** Actually look at the presenter image
+   (`vision_analyze`) and listen to any voice sample; record findings by
+   setting the `manual_input_review` booleans in `job.json`, e.g.:
+
+   ```bash
+   python3 - <<'PY'
+   import json
+   p = "~/Videos/my-presenter-video/job.json"  # expand ~ or use an absolute path
+   import os; p = os.path.expanduser(p)
+   j = json.load(open(p))
+   j["manual_input_review"].update(image_viewed=True, single_clear_face=True,
+                                   image_has_no_unwanted_text=True)
+   json.dump(j, open(p, "w"), indent=2)
+   PY
+   ```
+
+   Then gate:
+
+   ```bash
+   python3 "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/preflight.py" ~/Videos/my-presenter-video/job.json
+   ```
+
+   Proceed only when `ok: true`; do remote generation only when
+   `remote_ready: true`. Note: preflight also updates `job.json` in place
+   (records the report path) — re-read it after running rather than editing
+   a stale copy.
+
+3. **Lock content and audio** — read `references/generation.md`. Script →
+   full narration via `text_to_speech` → ASR-verify the narration against the
+   script → record real durations. The locked audio is the master clock for
+   everything downstream.
+
+4. **Plan and generate the presenter** — read `references/generation.md`.
+   Short low-cost pilot first; full run only after the pilot passes identity
+   and mouth-timing review.
+
+5. **Edit** — read `references/editing.md`. Deterministic timeline driven by
+   the locked audio; captions and keyword callouts only after audio and media
+   are final.
+
+6. **Verify and deliver** — read `references/qa-recovery.md`, render, then:
+
+   ```bash
+   bash "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/finalize_delivery.sh" \
+     ~/Videos/my-presenter-video/renders/rendered.mp4 \
+     ~/Videos/my-presenter-video/outputs my-video
+   ```
+
+   The finalizer preserves aspect ratio, runs two-pass loudness normalization
+   (program ≈ −16 LUFS), produces master + share encodes, decode-verifies
+   both, writes a delivery report JSON, and emits a nine-frame contact sheet.
+   Inspect the contact sheet with `vision_analyze` before claiming completion.
+
+## Operating rules (non-negotiable)
+
+- Confirm image rights, adult status, remote-upload approval, and
+  voice-cloning authorization before the relevant remote action.
+- Never infer or clone a real person's voice from an image; use an authorized
+  sample or a stock TTS voice.
+- Lock the complete narration before presenter generation, caption timing, or
+  final scene boundaries.
+- Mute video sources in the final composition; only the approved narration
+  and intentional mix tracks carry audio.
+- Preserve provider request bodies and task IDs (minus credentials/expiring
+  URLs). Poll interrupted work before resubmitting — avoid double billing.
+- Stop after three rejected paid candidates and summarize the failure mode.
+- Do not claim completion until the final files fully decode and the contact
+  sheet or full playback has been reviewed.
+
+## Defaults for minimal input
+
+9:16, 1080×1920, 30fps; topic-derived videos target 45–75s; stock voice when
+no authorized sample; presenter-led layout with hook → 2–4 beats → close;
+no music/CTA unless requested; language inferred from the request.
+
+## Reference routing
+
+- `references/generation.md` — intake, content, voice, capability selection,
+  presenter prompts, paid generation, provider changes.
+- `references/editing.md` — timeline contract, openings/closes, captions,
+  keyword-callout presets, HyperFrames composition, exports.
+- `references/qa-recovery.md` — technical acceptance, visual acceptance, and
+  recovery for lip-sync/identity/hands/exposure/freeze/caption/audio faults.
+
+## Pitfalls
+
+- `preflight.py` requires ffprobe; on a bare box install ffmpeg first.
+- The consent booleans set by init flags land under `input.*`; editing them
+  at the job-json root silently does nothing (preflight keeps blocking).
+- `finalize_delivery.sh` needs bash + jq + awk and a fully decodable input —
+  a truncated render fails the decode check by design, not by accident.
+- Long avatar clips drift: prefer one continuous presenter source sliced on
+  the audio timeline over many regenerated chapter clips (identity drift
+  across regenerations is the #1 visual-QA failure).
+- FAL i2v endpoints cap duration (typically 5–15s); plan chapter-level
+  presenter segments accordingly and reuse the pilot's seed/params for
+  consistency where the endpoint supports it.
+
+## Verification
+
+Validated hands-on (Aug 2026): `init_job.py` → `job.json` with correct state
+machine; `preflight.py` correctly blocked on unreviewed inputs, flipped to
+`ok: true` after review booleans, and kept `remote_ready: false` until
+`input.remote_upload_approved`; `finalize_delivery.sh` on a synthetic 5s
+1080×1920 render produced decode-verified master (631kbit/s) + share encodes,
+delivery-report JSON, and a 9-frame contact sheet, exit 0.

+# Editing
+
+Read this file for the visual plan, deterministic timeline, openings, closes, screen demos, captions, keyword callouts, covers, previews, and exports.
+
+## Visual routes
+
+- **Presenter-led:** the presenter carries the explanation; add one concise visual idea per beat.
+- **Screen-demo:** preserve real UI readability; introduce the presenter large at chapter starts, then shrink the same continuous video into a verified safe region.
+- **Mixed explainer:** assign supporting media only where it proves or clarifies narration.
+
+Do not fabricate product evidence. Label conceptual visuals clearly.
+
+## Timeline contract
+
+The locked narration defines duration and semantic boundaries. Every clip keeps three independent values:
+
+- authored start in the final video;
+- authored duration;
+- source-media start.
+
+When an opening changes length, shift authored starts while preserving presenter source offsets. Keep video sources muted and use approved external narration as the program clock. Prefer one continuous presenter source and source-time slices over regenerated chapter clips.
+
+Use hard cuts at settled semantic pauses. Add transitions only when they clarify structure. Preserve a quiet tail so the last word, gesture, and mouth position finish naturally.
+
+## Opening, body, and close
+
+- Establish the topic and payoff within the first few seconds.
+- Design the time-zero frame as a deliberate cover frame.
+- Keep opening copy away from eyes, mouth, and the hand-motion path.
+- Use the same visual system across the cover, chapters, captions, keywords, progress, and close.
+- End with a conclusion or one requested next step. Do not add promotional copy without a brief requirement.
+
+## Captions
+
+Generate word timestamps from the final audio. Split into short semantic phrases, normally one readable line. A practical baseline is about `40ms` visual lead and `120ms` tail hold when neighboring phrases allow it.
+
+Keep captions clear of the face, UI, watermark, progress line, and platform controls. Highlight one meaningful term per phrase. Make entrances and exits quick enough to preserve reading stability.
+
+## Presenter-side keyword presets
+
+Use keyword callouts to amplify selected spoken beats. Avoid repeating one identical card throughout the video.
+
+Rotate a small family of presets such as:
+
+- radial burst;
+- tilted ribbon or sticker;
+- hand-drawn circle or marker stroke;
+- large/small type contrast;
+- staggered word-chip cluster;
+- double-layer outline lockup.
+
+Bind each callout to a real spoken stress or ASR word anchor. Separate the entry timing of the kicker, main word, secondary word, marker, rays, and outline by a few frames. Let the callout settle briefly, then collapse before the next idea. Keep it inside a consistent presenter-side safe region and verify the complete motion path does not cover the face or hands.
+
+## Composition and preview
+
+Use a deterministic compositor available in the environment. For HyperFrames:
+
+1. load the current HyperFrames workflow and domain instructions;
+2. give all timed media explicit start, duration, track, and source offset;
+3. run the required composition check with representative emphasis and transition samples;
+4. inspect time zero, chapter cuts, layout changes, keyword beats, captions, close, and final frame;
+5. open the final Studio preview and obtain approval before rendering;
+6. render at delivery quality only after approval.
+
+Measure the assembled stereo program after rendering. Mono narration duplicated into stereo can measure about 3 LU louder, so perform final program normalization from the rendered file.

+# Generation
+
+Read this file for intake, content, narration, capability selection, paid generation, presenter prompts, or provider changes.
+
+## Inputs and authorization
+
+Required:
+
+- a topic or script;
+- one local presenter image with one clear adult face;
+- confirmed image rights before remote upload;
+- confirmed adult status from the user.
+
+Optional:
+
+- authorized voice sample;
+- screen recordings, B-roll, images, charts, brand assets, or source links;
+- audience, duration, language, aspect, style, watermark, music, CTA, provider preference, or previous episode.
+
+Inspect the real image. Record visible anchors only: framing, hair, glasses, clothing, accessories, hands, furniture, background geometry, camera height, crop, light, exposure, white balance, embedded text, logos, occlusion, multiple faces, and resolution. Do not infer sensitive traits.
+
+When a voice sample exists, listen for one speaker, audible speech duration, language, noise, echo, clipping, music, silence, and codec damage. Record whether cloning is authorized. Keep the original unchanged.
+
+## Content and narration
+
+For a topic, use one clear spine:
+
+```text
+hook → promise → 2–4 useful beats → synthesis → close
+```
+
+For a supplied script, preserve factual meaning while improving breath, pronunciation, sentence length, and transitions. Flag material factual edits for approval.
+
+Generate the complete approved narration before visual work. Keep one voice identity and one synthesis configuration. Split only for operational limits or clean semantic sections. Preserve raw and normalized copies.
+
+Run ASR against final audio. Review names, numbers, English tokens, omitted words, repeated words, and tail speech. Use actual audio durations for every later cut.
+
+## Capability routing
+
+Resolve capabilities at execution time:
+
+| Capability | Acceptance priority |
+|---|---|
+| Voice generation | authorization, identity, pronunciation, rate control, clean audio |
+| Main presenter | exact audio support, semantic lip sync, identity stability, required duration |
+| Short motion | stable face, one controllable gesture, fixed camera, economical retry |
+| Lip-sync repair | preserves accepted motion while replacing mouth timing with exact audio |
+| Word-timestamp ASR | accurate word start/end times and reviewable output |
+| Timeline compositor | explicit source offsets, frame-accurate seek, deterministic render |
+| Encoder and QA | local probe, loudness, decode, black-frame and contact-sheet support |
+
+Inspect current installed tools and official documentation when availability, duration, pricing, or request fields may have changed. Prefer a user-selected provider when it passes the gates. Otherwise choose the simplest available capability that does.
+
+Record the actual provider, model, version, region, parameters, price evidence date, task ID, and sanitized request body in `job.json`. Ask before a provider change that affects cost, privacy, voice, appearance, or quality.
+
+## Billing and pilot gate
+
+Before the first remote or paid call, state:
+
+- files or data being uploaded;
+- capability and selected tool;
+- requested seconds or units;
+- known price or that the cost is unknown;
+- pilot duration and retry ceiling;
+- expected output and main risks.
+
+Generate the smallest useful pilot. Continue to a full run only after technical checks and visual review pass. Do not generate a long clip when the edit uses only a short range.
+
+## Presenter prompt structure
+
+Write prompts in this order:
+
+1. Bind the user image as the sole presenter and scene reference.
+2. List only visible identity, clothing, accessory, camera, framing, background, light, exposure, and white-balance anchors.
+3. Request realistic skin, hair, eye moisture, fabric, breathing, bilateral blinking, and restrained head motion.
+4. Supply exact dialogue through the tool's supported audio or dialogue field.
+5. Tie one physically plausible gesture to one phrase and approximate time.
+6. Reserve a settled, closed-mouth tail.
+7. Exclude identity, face, glasses, hair, wardrobe, skin tone, background, camera, lighting, finger, hand, dialogue, text, logo, watermark, and extra-person drift.
+
+For the main presenter, prioritize mouth timing and identity. Keep hands low or outside frame. For an opening or close, one small gesture may carry the hook or CTA. Keep hands below the collarbone, away from the face and lens, and end the movement before the tail hold.
+
+If the body performance is accepted but mouth timing is visibly late, preserve the motion plate and apply lip-sync repair with the exact locked audio and no duration extension.

+# QA and recovery
+
+Read this file before accepting generated media or delivery, and whenever a production fault appears.
+
+## Acceptance gates
+
+### Inputs
+
+- Topic or script exists.
+- Presenter image decodes and contains one reviewed adult face.
+- Image rights, adult confirmation, and remote-upload permission are recorded.
+- Any voice sample contains one authorized speaker.
+- Supporting media is probed and its provenance is recorded.
+
+### Audio
+
+- Final ASR matches the intended script once, without material omissions or additions.
+- Sections have consistent loudness, commonly near `-17 LUFS`.
+- Assembled program loudness is commonly `-16 ± 0.5 LUFS` unless the destination specifies another target.
+- No clipped words, doubled tracks, echo, clicks, unexpected silence, or truncated tail.
+- Measure the final stereo file; section measurements alone are insufficient.
+
+### Presenter
+
+- Expected resolution, frame rate, duration, and decodable streams.
+- No black frames, long exact-frame freezes, progressive darkening, or duration extension.
+- Identity, face geometry, hair, glasses, clothing, accessories, background, crop, exposure, and white balance remain coherent.
+- Mouth follows names, numbers, English tokens, plosives, and phrase endings.
+- Blinks are sparse and bilateral; gestures occur once and settle; hands remain plausible and away from the face.
+- Tail ends with a settled face and resting mouth.
+
+### Composition and delivery
+
+- No flash, duplicate presenter, source-time reset, missing overlay, overflow, face obstruction, caption collision, or unreadable UI.
+- Opening, callouts, captions, watermark, progress, and platform safe zones remain compatible.
+- Master and share files have the expected duration, dimensions, frame rate, codec, pixel format, and audio rate.
+- Both files fully decode.
+- Contact sheet covers opening, chapters, emphasis graphics, close, and final frame.
+- Watch the complete video at normal speed before delivery.
+
+## Recovery rules
+
+### Interrupted remote task
+
+Poll the saved task ID and download a succeeded result. Resubmit only after a confirmed failure or cancellation.
+
+### Voice identity or loudness changes
+
+Confirm one synthesis identity and configuration. Regenerate the mismatching section, normalize again, and rerun ASR. If the final render is louder than the source, confirm video is muted and apply whole-program two-pass loudness correction.
+
+### Presenter changes between chapters
+
+Use one continuous audio-driven source with source-time slices. When splitting is unavoidable, lock identity, framing, parameters, light, and quiet edge holds.
+
+### Body motion works but mouth is late
+
+Keep the accepted motion plate. Apply lip-sync repair with the exact locked audio and no duration extension. Check speech anchors at numbers, plosives, English tokens, and final syllables.
+
+### Face, glasses, hands, or light drift
+
+Retry from the original image with reduced motion and explicit camera, exposure, and white-balance locks. Simplify the gesture and keep hands low. Structural face or finger faults require regeneration; grading cannot correct them.
+
+### Frozen picture-in-picture
+
+Confirm the layout uses moving video, source offsets advance continuously, and no poster frame or identical-frame padding replaced the presenter.
+
+### Captions or keyword graphics feel wrong
+
+Regenerate timings from the final audio. Split by meaning, shorten visible phrases, and adjust small lead/hold margins. Bind keyword motion to actual spoken anchors and verify its complete path against the face, hands, UI, and captions.
+
+### Three rejected paid candidates
+
+Stop. Preserve candidates, prompts, task IDs, cost, and rejection notes. Summarize the recurring failure, remaining options, expected additional cost, and the single variable proposed for the next attempt.

+# Dream Loop Skill
+
+An autonomous process for building extremely impressive visuals, especially 3D
+scenes (games, apps, usually browser three.js/WebGL): generate photorealistic
+concept art of the ideal result, build it, screenshot the live build, have a
+judge score screenshot vs concept against a gated ladder, and iterate until
+convergence. Goal: the most visually stunning result at an acceptable frame
+rate for the target platform (e.g. 60 fps browser, 120 fps modern mobile).
+
+This skill does NOT cover general web-app functionality, 2D UI design, or
+non-visual quality — only the visual-fidelity loop.
+
+## When to Use
+
+- User says "dream loop" or asks for a game/scene/app built to a very high
+  level of graphical fidelity.
+- Follow-up refinement passes on an existing visual product (see Follow-up
+  loops below).
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- **Concept art**: the `image_generate` tool. If unavailable, stop and ask the
+  user for a concept image (or an image-generation API to connect to).
+- **Screenshots**: `browser_exec` — serve the build locally
+  (`python3 -m http.server` for static builds), then `new_tab(url)`,
+  `wait_for_load()`, `capture_screenshot()`.
+- **Judging**: `vision_analyze` (see Judge section for the one-image-per-call
+  workaround).
+- **Optional**: Blender for asset modeling — see the `blender-3d-automation`
+  skill. `delegate_task` for parallel asset work and fresh-context judging.
+
+If you don't have the tools needed for the full loop, flag that to the user
+early and stop.
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+| Stage | What happens | Artifacts (`.dream-loop/`) |
+|---|---|---|
+| 1. Target | Get/confirm the user's description | notes |
+| 2. Concept | Generate "in-engine screenshot" concept art | `concept.png` |
+| 3. Budget | Record time budget & start time (if given) | notes |
+| 4. Build | Implement the concept as well as possible in one go | source, plans |
+| 5. Screenshot | Capture live build at concept resolution | `round-N.png` |
+| 6. Self-check | Rigorous side-by-side audit before judging | assessment log |
+| 7. Judge | Ladder-scored comparison, actionable directives | verdict log |
+| 8. Iterate/Exit | Address directives or exit per criteria | — |
+
+## Procedure
+
+### 1. The target concept
+
+If the user provided a description of a game, scene, or app, proceed — don't
+ask for clarification unless it's too vague to generate concept art from. If
+they didn't, ask for it.
+
+Put working context/files in `.dream-loop/` and gitignore it (unless told
+otherwise).
+
+### 2. Concept art
+
+The concept is a realistic, high-quality, impressive target: the look of a
+current AAA game running in real time. Physically plausible materials (wet
+stone, brushed metal, cloth, glass) with real roughness and normal detail,
+correct proportions, atmosphere (fog, haze, rain, dust, volumetric light),
+cinematic lighting with a clear key and rich shadows. It should NOT be
+stylized or an artistic rendition — it should look like a true screenshot of
+the ideal result.
+
+Avoid these failure modes when generating with `image_generate`:
+
+- **Overbaked**: photographic clutter, film grain, hundreds of unique small
+  objects, excessive detail on every surface that reads as noise. A real-time
+  build with modeled assets won't match this, and it won't even look good.
+- **Oversimplified**: cartoon or toy look, flat shading, blobby primitive
+  shapes, empty surfaces. Boring; will not impress the user.
+
+Aim for the middle ground: beautiful surfaces and materials that shaders
+render well, strong atmosphere and lighting, an interesting palette, and
+focused hero elements with fine detail that draws the eye (not every element
+fighting for attention).
+
+Prompt for "in-engine screenshot" more than "concept art" and discourage the
+noisy/grainy look. Review the image with `vision_analyze`; if it hits a
+failure mode, pass it back to `image_generate` in edit mode and ask it to fix
+the issue. Save it as `.dream-loop/concept.png`.
+
+If you generated the art (the user didn't supply it), pause and confirm it
+matches the user's vision before starting the build loop.
+
+### 3. Time budget
+
+If the user gives a time budget, record the start time and check the clock
+between rounds. Don't degrade visual fidelity to hit the budget — strive for
+the absolute best result, and don't rush work to the judge. Parallelize or
+distribute work (e.g. `delegate_task` for independent assets) to hit the
+time goal, but no shortcuts: it's better to hit the time limit with
+meaningful, beautiful progress than with something broadly complete but ugly.
+
+If no time budget is given, run until an exit criterion — but warn upfront
+that this may consume a lot of tokens.
+
+### 4. Build loop
+
+Look at the concept art and implement it in one go, making that first pass
+count across every tier of the score ladder: composition, textures, lighting,
+details. Sculpt and model assets carefully (or use external ones if allowed);
+don't settle for basic procedural elements and flat surfaces unless the art
+style calls for it. Write intermediate files/plans to `.dream-loop/`.
+
+- If Blender is installed and the concept involves 3D assets, prefer modeling
+  in Blender (see the `blender-3d-automation` skill). For complex assets,
+  delegate to subagents via `delegate_task`.
+- If the user allows external assets, prefer them over modeling unless the
+  asset is simple. If unspecified, assume NO external assets from the web.
+- Do not be lazy with key environmental details (scenery, flooring,
+  buildings): simple shapes look blocky, shiny, flat, and fake. Tiny details
+  and texturing matter and need custom sculpting.
+- Use `image_generate` for textures, normal maps, skyboxes, etc. — better
+  looking and faster than procedural ones.
+
+### 5. Screenshot
+
+Serve the build (e.g. `python3 -m http.server` in the build dir), then via
+`browser_exec`: `new_tab('http://localhost:8000')`, `wait_for_load()`, allow
+the scene to settle, `capture_screenshot()`. Target the same resolution and
+aspect ratio as the concept art so the comparison is fair. Save as
+`.dream-loop/round-N.png`.
+
+### 6. Self-check before judging
+
+Each time, review the candidate screenshot yourself before submitting. Do not
+submit half-baked work. Compare screenshot and concept side by side and log an
+honest assessment of judge-readiness; only submit if confident you've
+significantly improved the score. Be rigorous and audit every pixel: big stuff
+(missing/incorrect objects, wrong scale, perspective, positioning) and small
+stuff (rendering glitches, flat untextured surfaces, ugly lighting, poor
+contrast, washed-out or oversaturated color, speckles, ugly shadows). Scan
+surface by surface, object by object, and list findings.
+
+### 7. Judge
+
+Judging should ideally be done by a fresh subagent with a clean context each
+round (`delegate_task`), to keep it objective and cheap. Give the judge the
+latest screenshot, the concept, and (from round 2 on) the previous round's
+screenshot and verdict.
+
+Mechanics: `vision_analyze` takes one image per call. Either have the judge
+make sequential calls (concept, then screenshot, then compare from memory of
+its own descriptions), or — better — stitch a labeled side-by-side composite
+with ImageMagick (`convert concept.png shot.png +append compare.png`) or PIL
+and analyze that single image.
+
+Judge prompt:
+
+> You are an art director reviewing a real-time render against its concept
+> art. Compare the screenshot to the concept and score it 0-10 using this
+> ladder. The ladder is gated: a frame cannot score above a tier's cap until
+> every requirement of the tiers below it is fully met. Be strict about the
+> gates.
+>
+> - **Tier 1, shape (0-3):** camera, framing, composition, and the position
+>   and rough scale of every major object match the concept. Layout, not
+>   finish: every major element present, in the right region of the frame
+>   (within ~10% of frame width/height), at roughly the right size (within
+>   ~25%). Right place and vaguely correct outline passes even if edges and
+>   surface are wrong; save precision nitpicks for Tier 4. Cap 3 until true.
+> - **Tier 2, light and color (3-5):** key light direction and color, overall
+>   exposure (no clipping to black or white), shadow depth, palette,
+>   contrast, atmosphere. Attend to reflections, glows, etc. Ensure the scene
+>   is not too bright or dark relative to the concept. Judge the whole frame,
+>   not tiny details (Tier 4). Cap 5 until lighting/reflections/color/
+>   contrast are generally right.
+> - **Tier 3, materials and surfaces (5-7):** every surface reads as the
+>   right material at a glance: textures, roughness, translucency, wetness,
+>   reflections. Assets must not look procedural, blocky, smooth/plastic;
+>   frame-dominating elements should be properly sculpted and detailed. Cap 7
+>   until true.
+> - **Tier 4, fine detail (7-9):** the small things. Nitpick relentlessly;
+>   inspect every little object up close. Layout aligns near-perfectly;
+>   materials extremely convincing. Cap 9 until right.
+> - **Tier 5, indistinguishable (9-10):** holds up side by side and zoomed
+>   in. Nitpick every pixel.
+>
+> If a previous verdict and screenshot are provided: you are one reviewer in
+> a sequence, not the first. Maintain consistency. First mark each previous
+> directive LANDED, PARTIAL, or NOT DONE against the new screenshot; carry
+> forward anything PARTIAL or NOT DONE. Don't reverse a prior directive
+> unless the result is clearly worse — and if you do, say so and why.
+>
+> Output format:
+> 1. Score on the first line; "Tier N" (highest fully-passed gate) on the
+>    second.
+> 1b. If given a previous verdict: the LANDED / PARTIAL / NOT DONE list.
+> 2. "Blocking:" the specific failures of the *next* tier's gate. The builder
+>    must clear these before anything else counts. Name the element and the
+>    change, with magnitudes: "Rocks: replace the stacked ovoid boulders with
+>    one continuous fractured slab; cracks 2-5cm wide, dark interiors, add
+>    surface texture so they don't look flat/plastic" — not "the rocks look
+>    artificial".
+> 3. Then at most 4 further directives from higher tiers, same style, ordered
+>    by points recoverable.
+>
+> No non-actionable feedback ("this looks synthetic") — name the specific
+> causes. Every directive must be actionable this round. Don't round up: if a
+> gate isn't fully passed, the cap holds.
+
+### 8. Exit criteria
+
+- **Score >= 8 and target FPS acceptable**: done. Show the user the latest
+  screenshot; ask if they want more iterations.
+- **Score >= 8 but FPS unacceptable**: optimize — lossless wins first, then
+  minimal-visual-impact ones. Re-judge afterwards to confirm no regression.
+- **Stall approaching** (best score hasn't improved a full point in 2 rounds,
+  or the judge named the same gap 3 times): stop incremental tweaks. Step
+  back and ask what about the *approach* is capping the score. Make one big
+  structural change in a round: swap asset strategy (sculpt in Blender, pull
+  real models/textures/HDRIs if allowed), rewrite the lighting model, rebuild
+  the composition, change the camera. Self-check carefully — big changes
+  break things. Only repeat parameter tuning if you can articulate why it
+  would work this time.
+- **Stalled** (already tried a big structural change, score flat 3 rounds,
+  judge is nitpicking or demanding intractable things like raytracing on a
+  GPU-less machine): stop, tell the user why you're blocked, give options.
+- **Otherwise**: address all or most heavy-hitting gaps this round, not just
+  the top one — rounds are expensive. Prioritize gaps that move the needle
+  most (lighting, textures, mesh detail). Only revert if the score dropped a
+  full point or more; small dips are judge noise, and reverting a whole round
+  throws out good changes with bad. If one change clearly regressed, undo
+  just that change. Loop.
+
+## Follow-up loops
+
+When building on an existing product (or the user re-invokes the skill for
+refinements), don't create new concept art in a vacuum — it may diverge from
+what exists. Instead capture a live screenshot of the current product and
+prompt `image_generate` to render the best possible version of it (current
+screenshot → AAA-graphics version of the same shot), then use that as the
+target. Multiple screens can run parallel judge loops if asked, at higher
+token cost.
+
+## Pitfalls
+
+- Overbaked or oversimplified concept art (see failure modes) — fix the
+  concept before building against it.
+- Submitting half-baked screenshots to the judge; the self-check gate exists
+  for a reason.
+- Screenshot at a different resolution/aspect than the concept — unfair
+  comparison, noisy verdicts.
+- Tunnel-visioning on incremental tweaks when the judge says you're off base.
+- Judging both images in one `vision_analyze` call — it takes one image;
+  composite them first.
+- Screenshotting before the scene loads/settles — add a wait after
+  `wait_for_load()` for asset streaming and animation warm-up.
+
+## Verification
+
+- `.dream-loop/concept.png` exists and passed the failure-mode review (and
+  user confirmation, if generated).
+- Each round has a screenshot, a logged self-assessment, and a judge verdict
+  with score + tier + directives.
+- Exit only via an explicit exit criterion; final screenshot shown to the
+  user with the final score and FPS measurement.

+Turn any user theme, sentence, or reference photo into an original printed editorial artifact with one stable visual language: adaptive neutral substrate + one or two inks + mechanically reproduced image + typographic tension + concise human voice.
+
+This skill designs and generates the image; it does not imitate any one reference, copy a source composition, wording, logo, or artwork, and it never uses more than two printing inks.
+
+## When to Use
+
+The user asks for a monochrome editorial poster, duotone print, risograph/zine poster, halftone photo treatment, one-ink or two-ink cover, or names the mono-color style. Chinese trigger vocabulary includes 单色海报、双色印刷、单色调视觉、蓝色/绿色孔版印刷、网点照片、复古或当代编辑排版. Do not trigger merely because a request mentions a color.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- The Hermes `image_generate` tool (search/describe it via the deferred-tool catalog if not loaded). If image generation is unavailable, deliver prompt-only and say so.
+- The `design-system/` catalogs bundled with this skill (see Quick Reference).
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+Print modes:
+
+| Mode | When |
+|---|---|
+| Pure one-ink | User explicitly requests one ink, monochrome, or one named ink without a second color |
+| Chromatic ink + black | Quiet, observational, natural, architectural, long-form subjects; chromatic plate carries the image, carbon/charcoal carries text |
+| Complementary duotone | General default; dominant plate 70–85%, accent 15–30% with a specific role; fallback pair Cobalt + Terracotta `#2148B8` + `#C65F38` |
+| Overprint duotone | Two plates deliberately overlap; the darker mixed zone is not a third ink |
+
+Catalogs (source of truth — **when an exact value differs, the catalog wins over any prose**; read only the catalog relevant to the current decision):
+
+| File | Provides |
+|---|---|
+| `design-system/colors.json` | Substrate IDs + exact hex, one-ink palette, approved two-ink pairs |
+| `design-system/compositions.json` | Layout-family IDs and geometry |
+| `design-system/typography.json` | Type-hierarchy role IDs |
+| `design-system/rhythm.json` | Visual tension profiles, focal events, unresolved edges |
+| `design-system/imperfections.json` | Controlled print-imperfection effect IDs and ranges |
+| `design-system/carriers.json` | Carrier signals (poster, journal page, cover, etc.) |
+
+References:
+
+- `references/visual-language.md` — full color/space/image-treatment/typography/tone rules
+- `references/composition.md` — layout decision flow, layout families, composition grammar, rhythm
+- `references/quality-gate.md` — originality firewall, hard avoids, inspection checklist
+
+## Procedure
+
+1. **Read the input.** Extract five things:
+   - **Subject:** the one person, object, scene, or idea that must remain recognizable.
+   - **Intent:** poetic observation, announcement, field note, personal statement, cultural poster, or specimen page.
+   - **Words:** preserve exact supplied text verbatim in its original language — never translate or rewrite it. If no text is supplied, invent one English display phrase of 2–8 words and keep it stable across retries. Omit text only on explicit request.
+   - **Image role:** hero photograph, isolated specimen, cropped fragment, texture source, or none.
+   - **Representation:** faithful reproduction (default) or abstract symbol extraction (when the user asks for abstract, artistic, loose, experimental, less realistic, or less photographic treatment).
+
+   For a complex topic, pick one concrete visual metaphor; do not illustrate every point. If the user supplies an image, preserve its identity and factual content — crop/isolate/halftone it, never replace the subject or invent branded details.
+
+2. **Resolve the recipe manifest.** Fill every field; do not skip any and do not expose the manifest unless the user asks for process details. Look up IDs and exact values in `design-system/`.
+
+   ````yaml
+   subject: <one recognizable subject>
+   intent: <one intent from Input Reading>
+   exact_text: <user text, generated 2-8 word phrase, or none>
+   text_language: <language of supplied text, otherwise English>
+   representation: <faithful reproduction or abstract symbol extraction>
+   ratio: <explicit ratio or 3:4>
+   carrier: <one carrier ID from design-system/carriers.json or none>
+   substrate: <one substrate ID and exact hex from design-system/colors.json>
+   mode: <pure one-ink, chromatic + black, complementary duotone, or overprint duotone>
+   palette: <one palette ID from design-system/colors.json>
+   inks: <the palette's named ink or approved pair with exact hex values>
+   plate_roles: <one explicit role per ink plate>
+   layout: <one composition ID from design-system/compositions.json>
+   empty_paper: <explicit percentage>
+   visual_tension: <relaxed, balanced, or assertive from design-system/rhythm.json>
+   focal_event: <one strong visual event from design-system/rhythm.json>
+   release_zone: <one deliberately quiet region that gives the focal event room>
+   unresolved_edge: <one optional edge behavior from design-system/rhythm.json or none>
+   image_treatment: <one mechanical reproduction process>
+   type_hierarchy: <one role ID from design-system/typography.json>
+   disruption: <one deliberate disruption>
+   imperfection_seed: <stable hash derived from the resolved recipe>
+   imperfections: <0-2 restrained effect IDs for contemporary work, or 2-3 for tactile/vintage work>
+   ````
+
+   Defaults when the user hasn't chosen: ratio `3:4`; substrate Neutral White `#FAFAF7` (Cool Gray `#E9E9E5` for architecture/tech/restrained; Pale Beige `#F5F1E8` only for tactile/archival/nostalgic subjects — never assume beige merely because the work uses halftone or risograph language); mode complementary duotone with Cobalt + Terracotta; empty paper `35%`; tension `relaxed` for reflective/leisure/unspecified cultural subjects, `balanced` for editorial information, `assertive` only for forceful declarations; disruption = one off-center image crop, or one oversized word when there is no image. Explicit user choices override defaults unless they violate the two-ink limit or the originality firewall. Identical inputs must resolve to the identical manifest — never vary palette, layout, percentages, or process for novelty.
+
+   Resolve generic color words consistently: blue→Cobalt, green→Botanical Green, orange→Terracotta Orange, red→Signal Red, purple→Aubergine, black→Charcoal; green+black→Mint Green + Charcoal; blue+orange→Cobalt + Terracotta. Exact named inks always take precedence.
+
+3. **Choose the layout.** Walk the decision flow in `references/composition.md` top to bottom and take the first match (events→ruled information poster; botanical→archival plate; repeated object→object field; crossing layers→overprint collage; supplied photo→image field or editorial cover; isolated objects→specimen annotation; phrase-as-subject→type-led declaration; essay-like→editorial journal; otherwise editorial cover).
+
+4. **Compile the prompt** in five compact paragraphs, in order:
+   1. **Canvas and ink:** ratio, exact substrate hex and reason, exact one/two-ink palette hexes, print mode, plate roles, flat front-facing page (no mockup, frame, desk, or shadow).
+   2. **Original composition:** layout family, tension profile, one focal event, one release zone, margins (5–9%), empty-paper percentage (25–55%), grid, dominant object scale (45–80% of page) and edge crop, optional unresolved edge, one manual gesture.
+   3. **Subject:** what appears; for faithful reproduction, preservation/crop/halftone/paper exposure; for abstract extraction, the 2–4 identity anchors, dominant mass, structural contour, repeated rhythm, and where exposed paper cuts through.
+   4. **Typography and words:** hierarchy, type voices, exact short display text, and the explicit overlap/crossing/split/tight alignment between headline and dominant object.
+   5. **Material and avoids:** dots, fibers, bleed, misregistration, plus the hard negative constraints from `references/quality-gate.md`.
+
+   Describe only visible outcomes. Never mention reference artists, studios, sample posters, or "in the style of."
+
+5. **Generate and inspect.** Call `image_generate` with the compiled prompt. Inspect at full and thumbnail size against the checklist in `references/quality-gate.md`; regenerate once on failure (extra ink, missing plate roles, empty paper outside 25–55%, unrecognizable subject, no ≥5x type scale jump, garbled text, composition copying a reference, no identifiable focal event). If exact text still renders wrong after one retry, generate a text-light base image and state that typography should be overlaid in a layout tool — never pretend distorted text is correct.
+
+6. **Deliver.** Save outputs under `./mono-color-output/` in the user's working directory (create it if needed), or another location the user names. Present:
+   1. the generated image (path or rendered);
+   2. the final prompt in a fenced `text` block;
+   3. a short recipe note: Mode, Ink (exact hexes), Layout, Type (editorial + utility voice), Process, and one Originality sentence naming the structural departures from any supplied reference.
+
+   Stop at prompt-only only when the user explicitly asks or image generation is unavailable.
+
+## Pitfalls
+
+- **Never more than two printing inks.** The substrate is not an ink; overprint mixing and density variation are not extra inks. Gradients, rainbow accents, and full-color photography are always out.
+- **Catalog wins over prose.** When a hex, ID, range, or geometry in `design-system/` differs from any prose description, use the catalog value.
+- **Preserve supplied text verbatim** — original language, exact wording, no translation unless asked. Never distort microcopy or factual text with imperfection effects.
+- **Never copy a source composition, wording, logo, or artwork.** Change at least four structural features from any supplied reference (see the originality firewall). No fake signatures, mastheads, sponsors, URLs, or invented branding.
+- **Contemporary by default.** Do not add yellowed paper, sepia, distressed borders, or retro props merely because the work uses halftone or limited inks — only when the user asks for vintage/archival mood.
+- **One focal event, one release zone.** Never center everything, never distribute elements evenly like a template, never fill the quiet zone with decoration.
+
+## Verification
+
+- Manifest fully resolved, all IDs present in the `design-system/` catalogs.
+- Result uses one intentional white/gray/pale-beige substrate and ≤2 inks with clear plate roles.
+- 25–55% visibly empty paper; one dominant object at 45–80%; headline visibly crosses or locks to it.
+- Type hierarchy shows a 5–12x scale jump with ≤3 type voices.
+- Supplied subject and text preserved exactly; ≥4 structural features differ from every supplied reference.
+- An image was generated (unless prompt-only was requested) and saved under the output directory, and the recipe note was delivered.

+# Composition: Decision Flow, Layout Families, Grammar, Rhythm
+
+When to load: while choosing the manifest's `layout`, `visual_tension`, `focal_event`, `release_zone`, and `unresolved_edge` fields, or writing the composition paragraph of the prompt. Geometry IDs live in `design-system/compositions.json` and `design-system/rhythm.json`; the catalog wins over this prose.
+
+## Space and Grid
+
+- Flat, front-facing paper canvas — no mockup, frame, desk, or cast shadow.
+- Default `3:4` vertical poster; respect a user-specified ratio.
+- Keep 25–55% of the canvas as visibly empty paper; generous outer margins of 5–9% of page width.
+- Align most elements to one invisible left edge or a simple 2–3 column editorial grid.
+- Create one deliberate disruption: a floating word, off-center image, oversized title, circular mark, or tiny annotation.
+- Never center every element; never distribute objects evenly like a template. Negative space is active pacing, not leftover room.
+
+## Composition Decision Flow
+
+Walk top to bottom; use the first matching rule unless the user explicitly requests a layout:
+
+1. Event, method, schedule, or factual announcement? → **ruled information poster**.
+2. Botanical, collected, or taxonomic subject? → **archival plate** (consider botanical green).
+3. One ordinary object explicitly requested as a repeated rhythm? → **object field**.
+4. Concept explicitly depends on two images/colors/type layers physically crossing? → **overprint collage** with overprint duotone.
+5. One supplied portrait or scene photograph?
+   - Faithful reproduction → **image field**.
+   - Abstract symbol extraction → **editorial cover** by default; **overprint collage** only when two extracted layers must physically cross.
+6. 1–3 supplied isolated objects intended for labels or comparison? → **specimen annotation**.
+7. The user's phrase itself is the main visual subject? → **type-led declaration**.
+8. Reflective, dated, or essay-like content with a primary photograph and readable text? → **editorial journal**.
+9. Otherwise → **editorial cover**.
+
+## Layout Families
+
+- **Image field:** large screened image crossing at least one page edge; headline overlaps or locks tightly to it; compact footer.
+- **Specimen annotation:** 1–3 isolated cutouts with numbered labels, one oversized phrase, asymmetric empty space.
+- **Type-led declaration:** headline controls the page; a smaller screened image interrupts or grounds it.
+- **Ruled information poster:** one dominant screened object/scene crossed by a headline; thin one-ink rules form one metadata band; the date stays subordinate.
+- **Archival plate:** title, one rectangular image plate, disciplined multi-column caption block.
+- **Editorial cover:** title near one edge, one dominant image zone, sparse issue-like microcopy, no fake masthead brand.
+- **Object field:** one recognizable object repeated at varied scale/crop/angle to form a printed rhythm; one open zone for title and facts.
+- **Overprint collage:** two ink plates carry separate object, image, geometric, or typographic layers and cross in selected zones — deliberate overlap, not everywhere.
+- **Editorial journal:** one primary screened photograph, a strong title or date, 2–3 disciplined text columns with real reading size and contrast.
+
+## Composition Grammar (Four Moves)
+
+Build every page from these, in the spirit of object-and-type construction rather than generic retro mood:
+
+1. **One object dominates.** One person, animal, ordinary object, or repeated specimen anchors the page at 45–80% of its area, cropped decisively at one or more edges when scale creates tension. No scattering of small atmospheric props. (A ruled information poster may reduce the image zone to 32–55% only when real supplied information needs the space. Dense overlap is allowed only in overprint collage and must still read as two printing plates.)
+2. **Type collides with the object.** One headline crosses, covers, splits around, or aligns tightly against the dominant image, staying readable. Never park every line in a detached safe zone above the image.
+3. **Paper cuts through the image.** Clipped highlights, irregular cutout gaps, halftone fade-outs, or plate knockouts make exposed paper a visible shape inside the composition, not only an outer margin.
+4. **One manual gesture interrupts the system.** One circled fact, hand-drawn line, registration mark, tiny symbol, rotated label, or ruled data strip — one gesture family only; multiple doodle styles turn the page into scrapbook decoration.
+
+Choose one dominant object and one dominant typographic event before adding secondary information. If either is missing, simplify rather than filling the page with mood-setting decoration.
+
+## Visual Tension and Uneven Energy
+
+Read `design-system/rhythm.json` whenever the user asks for relaxed, loose, effortless, casual, quiet, breezy, or understated work, or when the default intent maps to `relaxed`. Relaxation is a compositional decision, not a soft-focus mood — **uneven energy, not low energy**.
+
+For `relaxed` work choose exactly one strong focal event: oversized type, an extreme crop, one giant object or detail, a concentrated overprint collision, or one abnormal scale relationship. Let it feel decisive; then release the rest of the page with open paper, pale screening, sparse support type, or one quiet alignment. Do not make every element tasteful, small, or equally calm.
+
+- Keep 25–55% visibly empty paper, sized from the focal event rather than a fixed relaxed quota.
+- Display type may become large when it is the focal event; when the image or object is the focal event, type supports rather than competes.
+- One dominant collision or scale event; secondary elements may be energetic only when they extend that same event.
+- Avoid the safe split of headline on one side and a complete photograph on the other — the focal event must cross, crop, interrupt, or materially reorganize the page.
+- An unresolved edge (image fade, inferable cropped word, broken alignment, open contour) is optional; use one only when it strengthens the focal event, never as a decorative compliance mark.
+- At thumbnail size, the focal event must be immediately identifiable and the release zone visibly quieter.

+# Quality Gate: Originality Firewall, Hard Avoids, Inspection
+
+When to load: before compiling the final prompt (avoids and firewall feed paragraph 5) and after each generation (inspection checklist and retry rules).
+
+## Originality Firewall
+
+A reference is evidence for a visual grammar, never a layout to trace. Before generation, change at least four of these from any supplied reference:
+
+- subject and crop; layout family; headline wording; headline location; image shape or count; grid structure; type pairing; metadata treatment; ratio; disruption device.
+
+Never reproduce a reference's exact object arrangement, line breaks, labels, dates, logos, border system, or distinctive slogan. Never include fake signatures or publication marks. If the user's source image contains protected or branded material, transform only the user's provided material and avoid presenting the result as an official artifact.
+
+## Hard Avoids
+
+Always exclude:
+
+- more than two printing inks, unassigned accent colors, gradients, rainbow accents, neon, or full-color photography;
+- clean vector-flat digital poster aesthetics;
+- beige lifestyle minimalism or a monochrome color wash;
+- glossy mockups, 3D depth, cinematic lighting, lens blur, hard shadows;
+- centered template symmetry, card grids, UI panels, stickers, decorative blobs;
+- scrapbook collage, uncontrolled overlap, grunge overload, torn-paper styling;
+- automatic vintage styling — yellowed paper, sepia aging, distressed borders, nostalgic props, retro type — merely because the image uses halftone or limited inks;
+- long paragraphs, marketing copy, CTA buttons, logos, URLs, QR codes;
+- exact imitation of a supplied poster or a recognizable artist signature.
+
+## Generation and Inspection
+
+1. Generate the image from the compiled prompt (Hermes `image_generate`).
+2. Inspect at full size and thumbnail size.
+3. Regenerate once when any of these fail:
+   - a one-ink composition shows a second ink, or a two-ink composition shows a third printing ink;
+   - a two-ink composition lacks clear plate roles, or the accent covers more than 30% without a subject-driven reason;
+   - the page reads as digitally color-graded rather than physically printed;
+   - empty paper falls outside 25–55%;
+   - the subject is unrecognizable;
+   - typography lacks a clear 5x or greater scale jump;
+   - long text is garbled or invented branding appears;
+   - the composition closely follows a supplied reference;
+   - a relaxed result has no immediately identifiable focal event or distributes equal emphasis across the whole page;
+   - a theme-only person becomes a complete stock-photo figure, or the page falls into a safe headline-left/photo-right split;
+   - the release zone is filled with decorative microcopy, gestures, or secondary focal points.
+4. If exact text renders incorrectly after one retry, generate a text-light base image and state that typography should be overlaid in a layout tool. Do not pretend distorted text is correct.
+
+## Final Quality Checklist
+
+- One intentionally selected white/gray/pale-beige substrate; no more than two printing inks.
+- Contemporary editorial by default; vintage/aged styling only when requested.
+- Two-ink work: each plate has a clear role; the accent remains controlled.
+- 25–55% of the page visibly empty.
+- Image reproduced through dots or mechanical print texture, not a color filter.
+- One object occupies 45–80% of the page (except a justified information-heavy layout).
+- Headline visibly crosses, covers, splits around, or locks tightly to the dominant object.
+- Exposed paper forms a visible shape inside the image (highlights, gaps, fade-outs, knockouts).
+- Exactly one manual gesture family; no mixed decorative doodle styles.
+- Type hierarchy: 5–12x scale jump, no more than three type voices.
+- Exactly one immediately identifiable focal event and one visibly quieter release zone.
+- Relaxed work concentrates energy in the focal event rather than reducing it everywhere.
+- With no source image, the figure feels observed in an ordinary in-between moment, not posed as an advertisement.
+- Page-filling type is the selected focal event while the remaining devices retreat.
+- Language is terse, specific, non-commercial; the user's supplied subject and text are preserved.
+- At least four structural features differ from every supplied reference.
+- An image was generated unless prompt-only was requested.

+# Visual Language: Color, Image Treatment, Typography, Tone
+
+When to load: while resolving the manifest's substrate/palette/plate roles, writing image-treatment or typography prompt paragraphs, or inventing display text. Exact hex values and IDs live in `design-system/`; the catalog wins over this prose.
+
+## Color System
+
+Default to controlled two-ink. Give the dominant and accent plates separate content roles before composing; never use the second ink merely to decorate the page. Switch to pure one-ink only when the user explicitly requests one ink, monochrome, or one named ink without a second color. The paper substrate does not count as an ink.
+
+- **Substrate:** Neutral White `#FAFAF7` suits crisp cultural, social, event, and colorful image-led work; Cool Gray `#E9E9E5` suits architecture, technology, charcoal-led systems, restrained branding; Pale Beige `#F5F1E8` suits tactile, food, travel, intimate, archival, or explicitly nostalgic subjects.
+- **Contemporary default:** the substrate is clean and neutral, not yellowed. Halftone and plate logic describe reproduction, not an era. No fading, sepia, antique props, distressed borders, or aged-paper staining unless the user asks for retro/vintage/archival aging.
+- **Plate limit:** two assigned printing plates by default, never more than two; explicit one-ink requests use one plate.
+- **Ink density:** darker coverage may appear near-black and sparse halftones may appear pale — density changes, not extra inks.
+- **Paper exposure:** keep the paper visible. Never tint the whole page into a digital monochrome wash.
+
+### One-Ink Palette
+
+- **Cobalt / Ultramarine** `#2148B8` — default for technology, knowledge, cities, music, cultural subjects.
+- **Royal Blue** `#2058D4` — youth culture, fashion, movement, energetic editorial.
+- **Botanical Green** `#008A4B` — botanical, ecological, archival, explicitly green subjects.
+- **Mint Green** `#5EB783` — observation journals, soft natural subjects, quiet editorial photography.
+- **Terracotta Orange** `#C65F38` — classical art, food, travel, summer, tactile objects.
+- **Signal Red** `#C83232` — declarations, music, events, civic or public culture.
+- **Aubergine** `#63365F` — literature, cinema, night, intimate cultural subjects.
+- **Charcoal** `#30343A` — architecture, photography, research, restrained publications.
+
+### Two-Ink Recipes
+
+Use a known pair rather than improvising arbitrary colors:
+
+- **Powder Blue + Signal Red** `#9EB8D3` + `#C83232` — guides, announcements, information-heavy pages.
+- **Cobalt + Terracotta** `#2148B8` + `#C65F38` — travel, summer, food, lifestyle.
+- **Botanical Green + Oxblood** `#008A4B` + `#8F3434` — plants, natural wine, bookstores, archives.
+- **Charcoal + Signal Red** `#30343A` + `#C83232` — architecture, exhibitions, reports, conceptual work.
+- **Electric Blue + Carbon** `#173AE3` + `#242321` — high-contrast cultural events, image-led pages.
+- **Mint Green + Charcoal** `#5EB783` + `#302D2E` — journals, essays, observations, long-form reading.
+- **Ultramarine + Safety Orange** `#263E99` + `#E55D2B` — movement, objects, youth culture, active urban subjects.
+- **Cyan + Brick Red** `#159DDA` + `#B64032` — repeated products, exhibitions, playful information systems.
+- **Tangerine + Slate Blue** `#E46C2D` + `#4773A5` — markets, festivals, illustrated notices, large typographic compositions.
+
+Assign each plate a role before composing. These constraints keep the result mechanically printed rather than digitally color-graded.
+
+## Image Treatment
+
+Convert photographs and illustrations into the selected ink plate(s) plus substrate. Choose reproduction intensity from the subject instead of automatically aging every image:
+
+- crisp screening or clean plate separation for contemporary work; coarse halftone, risograph grain, cyanotype-like exposure, photocopy breakup, or newspaper screening only when materially useful or requested;
+- visible dots at close range, recognizable subject at thumbnail scale;
+- clipped highlights where paper shows through, dense shadows where ink pools;
+- optional mild ink bleed, uneven coverage, scan noise, paper fibers, or 1–2 mm registration drift between plates; fewer imperfections for contemporary/clean work;
+- medium contrast; no glossy photographic depth.
+
+When no source image is supplied, do not default to a polished photorealistic hero person or complete stock-photo figure. Prefer 2–4 identifying anchors (a hand on a handlebar, one bent leg, a wheel arc, loose fabric, hair direction). Build the subject from a partial editorial crop, simplified screened fragment, and one ordinary in-between gesture. Avoid advertising poses, victory gestures, athletic hero angles, catalog-style full bodies, and the safe headline-left/photo-right split unless asked.
+
+### Abstract Looseness
+
+When representation is `abstract symbol extraction`, transform the supplied image into a small visual vocabulary rather than filtering the whole photograph:
+
+1. Name 2–4 **identity anchors** that keep the subject recognizable; preserve their relationship, not their photographic detail.
+2. Convert the anchors into **one dominant mass**, **one structural contour**, and **one repeated rhythm** — flat plate shapes, broken hand-drawn lines, short strokes, dots, or paper cutouts; omit incidental scenery.
+3. Let paper replace at least 35% of the source scene. Crop one anchor at a page edge; let one type or line element cross it. Abstraction must create active space, not merely blur or posterize.
+4. Keep the abstract geometry deterministic; looseness comes only from slightly irregular contours, uneven repeated marks, and seeded controlled imperfections. Do not randomly move anchors between retries.
+5. At thumbnail scale, at least two identity anchors must still communicate the original subject without the caption.
+
+For complementary duotone abstraction: dominant ink carries structure and rhythm; accent ink is reserved for one identity anchor or one annotation — never distributed evenly.
+
+### Controlled Chance
+
+Keep composition, wording, palette, and hierarchy deterministic; introduce looseness only in the reproduction layer. Contemporary work: 0–2 restrained effects; tactile/vintage/archival work: 2–3 effects from `design-system/imperfections.json`, using a stable seed hashed from subject + exact text + palette + layout, preserved across retries.
+
+- Uneven ink density, dry-edge breakup, halftone drift, registration drift, or one broken manual gesture create the analog variation.
+- Apply variation to large type, image plates, solid shapes, or the single gesture family; never distort microcopy or factual text.
+- Keep all effect values inside catalog ranges; the same resolved input reproduces the same marks and offsets.
+- In one-ink work, registration drift may appear only as a pale second impression of the same ink — never another color.
+- Never use controlled chance to move the dominant object, change line breaks, alter the grid, or paper over an unresolved composition.
+
+## Typography
+
+Typography is a responsive cast, not a fixed house font. Read `design-system/typography.json` and choose one primary display skeleton from the subject, wording, and information structure — literary serif, wide cultural grotesk, compressed civic sans, engineered program type, rotated display, or word-as-object. Consistency across a set comes from ink, spacing, plate logic, and disciplined microtype, not from forcing every image into the same serif-plus-mono treatment.
+
+Role guide: Literary for intimate/quiet subjects; Cultural Grotesk for music and contemporary culture; Condensed Civic for public events; Programmatic when dates or structured facts lead; Rotated Display for bold covers; Handwritten Interjection only as a secondary human voice (never dates, locations, essential facts, or long copy); Typographic Object when the phrase itself is the image.
+
+Build each image with one primary display voice and one functional support voice; a third voice only as one short handwritten interjection. Choose at most one typographic behavior per image: natural lowercase sentence breaks (intimate); wide/interlocked capitals (music, movement, culture); compressed stacked lines (public events); tabular numerals with unequal ruled blocks (programs); one 90° rotation or vertical title (bold cover); one circled handwritten aside (invitation/personal note); oversized cropped letterforms (words as the dominant object). Do not repeat the same display category across every item of a multi-scene request unless the user asks for a unified campaign.
+
+Rules:
+
+- One dramatic scale jump: largest text 5–12x the microcopy size.
+- Lowercase for intimate statements, uppercase for public declarations.
+- Display copy 2–8 words; all other copy sparse.
+- Invented words default to natural English even when the request is in another language. Preserve user-supplied wording exactly; do not translate unless asked.
+- Exact readable wording only when supplied or concept-carrying; otherwise plausible microtype as texture — never invented organizations, URLs, sponsors, or event facts.
+- No gradient type, outline effects, drop shadows, inflated 3D letters, or generic luxury-fashion spacing.
+- Oversized type is valid only as the selected focal event; otherwise it stays subordinate to the image/object/crop/overprint event.
+- In relaxed work, one typographic move may be audacious while all supporting type becomes sparse and functional.
+- Never copy a reference's distinctive lettering, exact line breaks, or word arrangement — translate only the broader contrast, orientation, and voice relationship into an original solution.
+
+## Communication Tone
+
+Write like an independent cultural poster, field journal, or community print notice: terse, observant, romantic, free-spirited without sentimentality; human and specific rather than inspirational; quiet confidence, dry wit, or factual clarity; no sales language, CTA, hype, productivity slogans, or brand-manifesto voice.
+
+For summer, movement, travel, leisure, music, and night subjects, romantic freedom is the default register — expressed through a physical sensation, an open direction, an unhurried gesture, or a small relationship between subject and space. Favor fresh English fragments (an observation or invitation), never a generic motivational slogan. For factual, civic, scientific, or archival subjects, clarity overrides this romantic default.
+
+For romantic, intimate, nostalgic, or poetic prompts, express feeling through one observable relationship: two figures sharing one edge, an object carrying signs of use, a crop implying closeness, a small distance between forms. Do not default to string lights, wine glasses, fluttering fabric, stars, flowers, sunset silhouettes, or cinematic haze — those describe a romance category; a specific relationship creates romance while preserving graphic directness. Never reuse wording visible in reference images or repeat a stock phrase across unrelated outputs.

+# System Atlas Skill
+
+An atlas is one data file (`data.mjs`) that renders two views: an **interactive isometric map** (a single self-contained `atlas.html` — hover to read, click to pin, go inside for steps, moving data packets you can inspect, chapters that reveal the system a few structures at a time), and a **generated text twin** (`SYSTEM.md`) with the decisions table, every structure, the flows, and the open questions by ID. The data file is the only thing anyone edits; both views rebuild from it. It sits beside a hand-written glossary (`CONTEXT.md`) and ADRs.
+
+**Does:** interactive architecture maps with progressive disclosure, question tracking across feedback rounds, a generated text twin, and a repeatable update loop.
+**Doesn't:** static one-off diagrams (use the architecture-diagram or excalidraw skill), finished systems that only need a README, or a single diagram for a PR.
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use whenever someone wants to discuss, design, review, or explain an architecture visually — "make an atlas", "map the system", "make the architecture explorable", "visualize the codebase/agent/pipeline so we can talk about it", "a diagram I can click around", "walk me through how it fits together" — or when an architecture discussion is producing a pile of open questions that need tracking across feedback rounds. Also use it to update an existing atlas after decisions change. Best when the system is new enough that vocabulary, decisions, and questions are still moving and there will be more than one feedback round.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Node.js (any recent version; the build uses only `node:fs`, `node:path`, `node:url` — no npm install needed).
+- A static server for verification (`npx serve` or `python3 -m http.server`).
+
+## How to Run
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p <atlas home>/atlas
+cp <skill>/assets/{template.html,build.mjs} <atlas home>/atlas/
+cp <skill>/assets/data.example.mjs <atlas home>/atlas/data.mjs   # then fill it in
+node <atlas home>/atlas/build.mjs   # writes ../SYSTEM.md and ../atlas.html
+```
+
+Every field of the data file is documented in `assets/data.example.mjs`.
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+| File | Role | Edit it? |
+|---|---|---|
+| `atlas/data.mjs` | Single source of truth: structures, flows, chapters, decisions, questions, prose | Yes |
+| `atlas/template.html` + `atlas/build.mjs` | Renderer + generator | Presentation only |
+| `atlas.html` | Built atlas; republish at the same URL after every rebuild | No (generated) |
+| `SYSTEM.md` | Built text twin | No (generated) |
+| `CONTEXT.md` | Glossary, one line per noun | By hand |
+| `adr/` | Hard-to-reverse decisions | By hand |
+| `research/` | Deep-dive evidence | Append-only |
+
+## Procedure
+
+Follow the order — each step was earned by a correction the first time round.
+
+1. **Read the inputs before drawing.** The vision doc, the repo's existing surfaces, and whatever prior art the user allows (ask — they may forbid a branch or a source). If you will build on a framework, read its docs first; hand long docs to a subagent via `delegate_task` with your specific design questions and have it return a primer with gotchas and a "what it does not give us" list. Drawing before this produces boxes that don't map to anything real.
+2. **Discuss before drawing.** Propose the structure in chat, mapped to the runtime's real primitives, and ask only the questions you cannot derive from the repo. Take defaults for the rest and say which.
+3. **First atlas — the whole system.** Copy `assets/` into the atlas home (rename `data.example.mjs` to `data.mjs`), fill the data, build with `node`, publish. **Where the atlas home is depends on the repo's docs policy** — ask before committing anything. Docs-friendly repos: `docs/<system>/atlas/` in-tree. Repos that commit only ADRs and `CONTEXT.md`: put the atlas, `SYSTEM.md`, and `research/` in a git-ignored scratch dir and attach `SYSTEM.md` + research to the spec issue when published. (Committing the whole set once produced a 3,900-line docs PR and four review rounds reconciling three restatements of one design.) Load the design-md or architecture-diagram skill via skill_view for HTML-artifact guidance if useful; read `references/design-language.md` for the visual rules either way.
+4. **Progressive disclosure.** A whole system at once reads as noise. Ten-ish chapters; each adds at most three structures and runs one small flow that only touches revealed structures; the last chapter shows everything with a flow picker. Unrevealed structures stay in the index, dimmed, with their chapter number. Panels are summary-first: one sentence, then *Read more* and *Steps* folded.
+5. **Shapes and labels.** Letters on boxes are not enough. Give each role a shape and put a readable name label on the canvas under every structure — see design-language.
+6. **Text twin.** `CONTEXT.md` is a glossary and nothing else (the nouns, one line each); ADRs only for decisions that are hard to reverse, surprising without context, and the result of a real trade-off — these two are the in-tree pieces. `SYSTEM.md` is generated and `research/` holds evidence; both live with the atlas (scratch dir or `docs/`, per step 3). Don't open issues unless asked.
+7. **Feedback by question ID.** Every question is `Q-<code><n>` with a state: open (a string), resolved `{q, r}` (answer + date), or routed `{q, to}` (handed to a named next step). Record the user's words. If they call something "not a question", drop it; if they say "I don't get this", explain with a concrete example *before* resolving. After each round: rebuild, republish, update memory.
+8. **Deep dives feed back.** Research with subagents (`delegate_task`) against one shared brief (the interface we own, the requirements that separate candidates, a usage model for cost, a fixed deliverable shape). Write a synthesis with a normalized cost/fit grid. Fold resolutions into the data as `{q, r: '… (from the deep dive, date)'}`. If the user rejects a proposal, sweep *every* file and rewrite — a banner on top of a stale section is not enough.
+9. **Keep it current.** One source, rebuild and republish after every change, never hand-edit generated files, and leave a `README.md` in the docs folder explaining the set (table in `references/process-and-lessons.md`).
+
+## Publishing
+
+`atlas.html` is one self-contained file — no build step, no external assets beyond a Google Fonts stylesheet. Serve the folder with any static server (`npx serve`, `python3 -m http.server`) and hand over the URL, or let the repo's pages host serve the committed file. One URL, republished after every data change, never a second copy. If you keep a stable published URL, put it in `META.artifactUrl` so `SYSTEM.md` links to it.
+
+## Pitfalls
+
+- Keep `<!doctype html>` first and `<meta charset="utf-8">` immediately after — otherwise quirks mode and mojibake arrows.
+- The renderer rebuilds its whole scene on every draw: a stray `render()` in a hover handler detaches the element under the cursor and the browser stops synthesising clicks — the map looks perfect in a screenshot while nothing responds.
+- Some in-app browsers render `file://` as a static snapshot; verify via a static server, not from disk.
+- Never delete a question — resolve or mark it dropped, so IDs stay stable.
+- After every decision, grep the outputs for stale words (`pending`, the old model name, the rejected design) — the person reads everything.
+- Large HTML/JS via shell heredocs is brittle; use `write_file` and keep the data block JSON-serializable.
+
+## Verification
+
+- `node <atlas home>/atlas/build.mjs` exits 0 and writes both `SYSTEM.md` and `atlas.html`.
+- Syntax-check the built script (`new Function(js)`), then open the served page in a real browser at ~1280×800; check a first chapter, a middle chapter, the last chapter, an inside view, and the light theme.
+- Click a structure and confirm the panel says **pinned** and offers *Go inside*; click a packet dot and confirm the payload opens.
+- Every structure has `one`, `what`, `how`, a `short` label, a role `kind`, and its questions; ghosts are marked; chapters exist with per-chapter flows; the last chapter is the whole system.
+- `SYSTEM.md` carries the decisions table, the question index with IDs and states, and the "how this file is maintained" footer.
+- Project memory records the atlas URL, docs paths, locked decisions with dates, what the user rejected and why, and the next step.

+# Atlas design language
+
+When to load: before filling `data.mjs` or touching `template.html` — layout, palette, isometric grammar, shapes by role, labels, copy rules, and the chapter recipe live here.
+
+The reference was a "codebase as interactive isometric diagram" screenshot: khaki paper, black hatched isometric structures, a left index of components, a right panel with *What it does / How it's built / Condition*, moving dots that are data packets you can inspect, hover to read, go inside a structure to see its steps, pan/zoom. Keep that grammar.
+
+## Layout
+
+- **Top strip** — stats (system, model roles, chapter n/N, structures shown n/N, questions open·routed·resolved) + controls: `◂ Back`, `Next ▸` (primary), `‖ Pause / ▸ Play`, `Trace one step`, `Refit`.
+- **Left index** — grouped buttons (code · name · count). Unrevealed structures dimmed with `ch N` (click → jump to that chapter). New-in-this-chapter gets a dashed outline. Ghost (not built) = dashed border.
+- **Canvas** — isometric SVG, pan by drag, wheel zoom, `+/−`. Chapter rail top-left (numbered squares + title). Flow picker bottom-left on the last chapter only.
+- **Right panel** — tabs *What it does / How it's built / Open questions*. Nothing selected → the chapter story (title, lede, 2–3 sentences, "New in this chapter" chips, Back/Next). Structure selected → eyebrow (code · pinned/hovering · new), name, status chip, one-sentence `one`, then `Read more` and `Steps in execution` as `<details>`. Packet selected → route + representative JSON payload.
+- **Hint bar** — keys: `enter / ] next chapter · [ back · hover to read · click to pin · → go inside · ← come out · click a dot to inspect`.
+
+## Palette and type
+
+Paper `#E6DFBE` · ink `#17170F` · muted `#6E6B54` · rule `#B9B293` · face `#EFE9CC` · grid `#CFC8A3`; dark theme swaps to dark olive paper `#1E1D15` / pale ink `#E6DFBE`. Tokens on `:root`, redefined under `prefers-color-scheme: dark` (guarded `:not([data-theme="light"])`) and `[data-theme="dark"]`. One face: IBM Plex Mono (Google Fonts) with a monospace fallback. Key phrases use `<mark>` = ink background, paper text. Buttons: 1.5px ink border + 2px hard shadow; primary = inverted.
+
+## Isometric grammar
+
+- Tile 72×36; `P(gx,gy,z) = [(gx−gy)·36, (gx+gy)·18 − z]`. Structures sorted by `gx+gy+w+d` for painter's order. Hops are ground-plane polylines with diamond bend markers; route from footprint centre to centre with one bend (`xy` or `yx`); **return hops take the other bend** so request and reply dots don't overlap.
+- **Shapes by role** (the user asked for "better box shapes"): `tall` = the brain (big block with a ridge line); `store` = three stacked drums (memory, ledgers, directories); `cards` = a deck of five thin slabs (tools); `slab` = wide flat hatched top (existing backend); `screen` = thin slab with an inset rectangle and text lines (surfaces: web chat, mobile, device); `gate` = box with a dark band (confirm/approval); `job` = hatched-top box (scheduled passes); `box` = everything else. Ghosts: dashed outline, no fill.
+- **Labels** (the user asked for "better labelling"): a 1–2-letter code chip on the top face **and** a readable uppercase `short` name (≤14 chars) on a paper-coloured tag under the front corner of every structure. Ghost labels dashed/muted.
+- New-in-chapter: pulsing dashed halo on the ground footprint (respect `prefers-reduced-motion`). Selected: top face tinted + chip inverted + label inverted.
+- Packets: ink dot with paper stroke; label visible on chapters 1–N−1 (always) and on hover/selection in the last chapter; clicking pauses everything and opens the payload. Dot pauses briefly at each hop and longer at loop start.
+- Inside view: steps laid diagonally (`gx 2+i·3.4, gy 2+i·0.6`, 2×2 footprint) with a single packet walking them; breadcrumb replaces the rail; `← Come back out`.
+
+## Copy rules
+
+Plain words from the person's side (per the glossary): "confirm card" not "HITL prompt". Structure names are nouns; `one` is a single sentence; `what` is for a non-engineer; `how` names files, tables, APIs with `<code>`; `cond` items are questions or tasks, one line each. Chapter ledes are one sentence; stories 2–3 sentences with one `<mark>` idea. Numbers carry their date and source.
+
+## Progressive-disclosure recipe
+
+1. You and X (2 structures, one hop each way) → 2. Knowing (context + memory) → 3. Doing (tools + backend) → 4. Asking first (gate) → 5. Learning (hooks, signals, log) → 6. Reflecting (nightly job) → 7. Many voices (characters + directory) → 8. Keeping it honest (evals, o11y) → 9. Later (ghosts) → 10. The whole system (flow picker). Adapt the nouns; keep the shape: each chapter adds ≤3 structures and one flow that only touches revealed structures.

+# Process and lessons
+
+When to load: before your first feedback round, a deep dive, or when deciding docs layout — this is the session-by-session record the skill was distilled from, plus the README table, the subagent deep-dive pattern, cost-model habits, and things that bit.
+
+From the session this skill was distilled from: one agent-architecture atlas, built and then reworked across several rounds of feedback.
+
+## How the session actually went — and what to repeat
+
+| Step | What happened | Repeat / avoid |
+|---|---|---|
+| Inputs | Fetched the vision doc; looked for a whiteboard photo (not attached — asked, moved on); the user forbade one prior-art branch mid-way | Ask which prior art is allowed; never assume |
+| Runtime digest | A subagent read the framework's bundled docs against 13 concrete design questions and returned a ~2.5k-word primer with gotchas and a BYO list | Do this before proposing structure; cite the primer's gotchas in the atlas |
+| Discussion | Proposed 7 structures mapped to runtime primitives; 7 sharp questions; user answered with one-liners | Take defaults where the user says "defaults are fine" and say which |
+| v1 atlas | Whole system at once, 21 structures, two packet flows | Fine as a first draft — but expect "hard to parse" |
+| Feedback 1 | "Make it easier via progressive disclosure"; "better box shapes/labelling" | Chapters + role shapes + labels — now the default |
+| Text twin | "Keep a text version in context/ADRs" → CONTEXT.md (glossary only), 7 ADRs, SYSTEM.md generated from atlas data, README | Generate the text from the atlas data from day one |
+| Question rounds | The user answered by structure; several "this is not a question", "I don't get this — give a concrete example", "this is a stupid question because…" | Explain before resolving; drop non-questions; thank and move on |
+| Deep dive | Scope set by the user (two vendors + a simpler DIY); three researchers on one brief with a shared usage model; synthesis with a normalized $/user/month grid; two different model cost bases | Normalize costs so columns carry the same components; fetch prices live (a cached price was wrong by 33%) |
+| Rejected proposal | The synthesis proposed a "truth table in Neon, vendor as index"; the user asked what it was, then rejected it as v0 state ("YAGNI"), and later noticed the doc still described it | After a rejection, sweep every file and rewrite — a banner is not enough |
+| Brain swap | The user switched the underlying model choice after an earlier decision had already been written up | Sweep every mention of the old choice; re-run the cost model; note which conclusions flip (on a cheap brain, the memory vendor dominates cost) |
+| Sprawl | The user: "you now have a ton of competing docs rather than coordinated" and "the atlas is great for me — but not if it's not up to date" | One source file in the repo, one build script, both views generated, README; rebuild + republish every change |
+
+## Docs-folder table (copy into README.md)
+
+| File | Role | Edit it? |
+|---|---|---|
+| `atlas/data.mjs` | Single source of truth: structures, flows, chapters, decisions, questions, cost model, prose | Yes |
+| `atlas/template.html` + `atlas/build.mjs` | Rendering + generator | Presentation only |
+| `atlas.html` | Built atlas; republished at the same URL after every rebuild | No (generated) |
+| `SYSTEM.md` | Built text twin | No (generated) |
+| `CONTEXT.md` | Glossary (domain-modeling convention) | By hand |
+| `adr/` | Hard-to-reverse decisions | By hand |
+| `research/` | Evidence | Append-only |
+
+## Subagent pattern for deep dives
+
+- Write one `BRIEF.md`: the port/interface we own, requirements that separate candidates, a usage model (scenarios × cadences × fleet sizes) and a fixed deliverable shape (sections, citations, return only a ≤250-word summary + grid + path).
+- One subagent per candidate via `delegate_task`, in parallel, writing reports to files; the main agent synthesizes (fit table, normalized cost grid, verdict, per-question resolutions, "considered and rejected").
+- Copy reports into the atlas home's `research/`; fold resolutions into `data.mjs` as `{q, r: '… (from the deep dive, date)'}`.
+
+## Cost-model habits
+
+- Always state: model price with fetch date and source, calls per turn, tokens per call (cached vs not), output tokens incl. thinking, turns/day scenarios, fleet sizes.
+- Present at least two brain bases if the choice is open; the memory/vendor share of the bill flips with the brain price.
+- A nightly job can use a batch API at 50% off; say so.
+
+## Things that bit
+
+- The published file needs `<meta charset="utf-8">` at the top, or the arrows render as mojibake.
+- `fitView` with a zero-size rect produced a negative scale once a paused-tab tween resumed; guard and cancel tweens.
+- Some in-app browsers render `file://` as a static snapshot (no scripts, no fonts) — serve the folder with a static server and verify there, not from disk.
+- Bash heredocs with large HTML/JS are brittle; write files with `write_file`, patch with small Python/Node scripts, and keep the data block as JSON-serializable objects so scripts can mutate it safely.
+- Index badges count only open questions; keep IDs stable by never deleting a question — resolve it or mark it dropped.

+description: "Draw code changes as animated architecture/data-flow SVGs."
+version: 1.0.0
+author: Coldtea AI (adapted by Nous Research)
+license: MIT
+platforms: [linux, macos]
+metadata:
+  hermes:
+    tags: [diagrams, pull-requests, code-review, svg]

+# PR Lens Skill
+
+PR Lens draws code as visually rich animated diagrams: diffs, architecture, data flows. You describe the diff or codebase as one JSON document (lanes, nodes, edges, ordered flows) and the CLI renders it as animated SVGs. There is no findings lens — PR Lens is a comprehension layer, not a review bot. There is no field for a bug, risk, or security note, and a document that invents one is rejected.
+
+## When to Use
+
+- Asked to diagram, visualise, or explain a code change or a system.
+- A pull request should carry an architecture or data-flow diagram.
+- Keywords: PR Lens, diagram, architecture, data flow, visualise, pull request.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Node.js with `npx` (the CLI runs via `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest`; no install step).
+- `gh` (GitHub CLI) — optional, only for attaching diagrams to PRs.
+- Optional canvas publishing calls the third-party service prlens.dev (see step 4b).
+
+## How to Run
+
+Run all commands with the terminal tool from the repository root.
+
+1. **Read the diff.** When representing a code change: `git diff --find-renames <base>...<head>`. The base is the merge base, not the tip of the base branch. If not expressing a diff, read the code to be visualised.
+
+2. **Write the document** to `.pr-lens/graph.json`, following `references/graph-document.md`. `references/example.graph.json` is a valid reference with three lanes, all four delta states, a hero edge, a seven-step flow, a nested drill-down tree and a six-step walkthrough. Read it before writing your first document — quicker than reading the reference.
+
+3. **Validate, and fix.**
+
+   ```bash
+   npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest validate .pr-lens/graph.json
+   ```
+
+   Fix every failure and run it again. Do not render an invalid document; do not "work around" a failure by deleting the element it names.
+
+4. **Render.**
+
+   ```bash
+   npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest render .pr-lens/graph.json --theme light
+   ```
+
+   Render light by default unless the user requests another theme. The SVGs, the manifest and `drawn.graph.json` land in `.pr-lens/`, which the CLI adds to the repository's .gitignore. Do not commit any of it — these files are rebuilt from the diff on demand. Each SVG is named after its view, theme and content hash; `manifest.json` lists them by lens and view.
+
+4b. **Canvas push — OPTIONAL, opt-in.** Only when the user explicitly asks for a shareable link. This publishes `.pr-lens/drawn.graph.json` to the third-party service prlens.dev:
+
+   ```bash
+   npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest canvas push
+   ```
+
+   It prints three links. Give the user the **view link** (`https://prlens.dev/c/{id}`): the full-screen diagram, every view on one page, no login. The **edit link** (ending in `#w=…`) lets its holder overwrite the canvas — it is a secret: leave it out of the reply unless asked, never paste it anywhere public. The embed link serves the top view as an SVG for a README. Pushing the same file again updates the same canvas, so "rename that node" is: edit, validate, render, push — the link stays the same. If the push fails, say so and tell the user where the local SVGs are and which is the top view.
+
+5. **Attach to a PR, when there is one.** Upstream documents `gh pr create/edit/comment --attach <path>`, but `--attach` arrived in GitHub CLI 2.99 — check `gh --version` first (e.g. gh 2.97 does NOT have it). With gh ≥ 2.99: write the body with a Markdown image `![alt](.pr-lens/<view>.svg)` (an HTML `<img>` is left as written and the file appended at the bottom instead; alt text is the one-line caption a reader without images gets), then repeat `--attach <path>` per referenced diagram:
+
+   ```bash
+   gh pr create --title "…" --body-file .pr-lens/body.md --attach .pr-lens/overview-light-<hash>.svg
+   ```
+
+   Without `--attach`, use a commit-free path:
+   - Upload the SVGs to a gist: `gh gist create .pr-lens/<view>.svg`, then reference the raw gist URL in the PR body/comment, or
+   - Publish via the canvas link (step 4b, with user consent) and link the view URL, or
+   - Note the local `.pr-lens/` path in the PR body so reviewers can rebuild.
+
+   Once published somewhere durable, let the CLI compose the comment markdown:
+
+   ```bash
+   npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest comment \
+     --graph .pr-lens/drawn.graph.json \
+     --manifest .pr-lens/manifest.json \
+     --asset-base-url <where you published the SVGs>
+   ```
+
+   `--graph` takes `drawn.graph.json`, not the document you wrote — the CLI refuses a document its manifest does not describe. Leave out `--asset-base-url` and the markdown points at local paths no reader can fetch. The markdown goes to stdout; posting it is your business.
+
+   Attach the views a reviewer needs and leave the rest in `.pr-lens/`: the top architecture view first, then a data flow if the change has a sequence worth following. Two diagrams usually beat four.
+
+6. **Optional automation:** `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest analyze --base <ref>` does steps 1–2 by asking a provider (Gemini, OpenAI, or any `/chat/completions` endpoint) with a key of your own. That is the only path here that needs one; normally you author the document yourself.
+
+## What makes a document worth reading
+
+- **Include what did not change.** Unchanged neighbours a change touches are the context; mark them `delta: "unchanged"`.
+- **Lanes are the reader's mental model** (a runtime, a tier, a boundary), not the folder tree.
+- **One hero edge**, two at the outside: the connection the change is really about.
+- **Add a flow only when there is a sequence** worth animating. One good flow beats three thin ones.
+- **Attach file refs**: they become the permalinks a reviewer clicks.
+- Architecture views are a C4-inspired decision tree: system context → container → component, each child materially narrower. Skip empty or repetitive levels; keep data-flow views as separate roots; set `defaultOpen: true` on the highest useful architecture view.
+- **Walkthroughs** (2–12 steps, aim 3–7): write one for anything non-trivial. Each step = one change (added/removed/moved), headline change first, overview last. Headings ≤48 chars built from change words; bodies ≤140 chars on behaviour, required. Write for a smart twelve-year-old; no "leverages"/"orchestrates". Keep consecutive steps on the same stage. The walkthrough field needs CLI ≥ 0.4.0 (contract 0.1.1).
+- **Fixing a wrong map:** never edit the generated document — write corrections into `.github/pr-lens.yml` (see `references/config.md`), then validate it: `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest validate .github/pr-lens.yml`. Prefer path globs over `id:` matches.
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+| Command | Purpose |
+| --- | --- |
+| `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest validate .pr-lens/graph.json` | validate the document (also validates `.github/pr-lens.yml`) |
+| `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest render .pr-lens/graph.json --theme light` | render SVGs + manifest into `.pr-lens/` |
+| `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest canvas push` | OPTIONAL: publish to prlens.dev (opt-in only) |
+| `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest comment --graph … --manifest … --asset-base-url …` | compose PR comment markdown to stdout |
+| `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest analyze --base <ref>` | auto-author document via an LLM provider (needs API key) |
+
+Validator failure codes:
+
+| Code | What you did |
+| --- | --- |
+| `BROKEN_REFERENCE` | an edge, flow step, view or walkthrough step names an id you never declared |
+| `INVALID_DOCUMENT` | an invented field; the schemas are strict, unknown keys are rejected |
+| `DUPLICATE_ID` | two nodes, edges or views sharing an id |
+| `UNSUPPORTED_SCHEMA_VERSION` | `schemaVersion` is not the contract version installed |
+
+## Pitfalls
+
+- Six rules are parser-only, not in the JSON Schema (referential integrity, inverted line ranges, disagreeing `self` endpoints, identical patch commits, too many views for a manifest, flow-step focus on the wrong stage) — always run `validate`, structured output alone is not enough.
+- Do not commit anything in `.pr-lens/`; it is regenerated and gitignored by the CLI.
+- The `--attach` gh flag needs gh ≥ 2.99; older gh silently lacks it — check before writing a body around it.
+- The canvas edit link (`#w=…`) is a write credential — never share it unprompted or paste it publicly.
+- A stored map never carries a walkthrough; a walkthrough tells the story of one change.
+- `pr-lens render` reports corrections in `.github/pr-lens.yml` that matched nothing — that is drift worth fixing, not an error.
+
+## Verification
+
+Smoke test (live-verified 2026-09-12 with `@coldtea/pr-lens-cli` via npx, node on Linux):
+
+```bash
+cp references/example.graph.json /tmp/prlens-smoke/ && cd /tmp/prlens-smoke
+npx -y @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest validate example.graph.json
+# ✓ example.graph.json — graph document · 3 lanes, 10 nodes, 13 edges, 1 flow · 6 walkthrough steps
+npx -y @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest render example.graph.json --theme light
+# ✓ .pr-lens/manifest.json — 4 SVGs across 4 diagrams
+```
+
+Expect exit 0 on both and four `*-light-<hash>.svg` files plus `manifest.json` and `drawn.graph.json` in `.pr-lens/`.

+When to load: fixing or overriding a generated map via the .github/pr-lens.yml correction overlay.
+
+# Correcting the map: `.github/pr-lens.yml`
+
+The generated document is regenerated on every run, so editing it is pointless. Corrections live in `.github/pr-lens.yml`, an overlay applied over fresh inference every time. Inference never writes back into this file, which is why a correction keeps holding as the code moves.
+
+```yaml
+schemaVersion: 0.1.1          # required
+lenses: [architecture, data-flow]
+branding: true
+map:
+  rename:
+    - match: functions/src/broadcast/sendBroadcastBulk.ts
+      to: Broadcast sender
+  exclude:
+    - "**/*.test.ts"
+    - scripts/**
+  lane:
+    - match: packages/broadcast-lib/**
+      lane: functions
+  group:
+    - match: id:build-bulk-payload
+      group: broadcast-lib
+```
+
+Every field except `schemaVersion` is optional, and the file itself is optional. For editor autocomplete, point at the published JSON Schema — no install needed:
+
+```jsonc
+{ "$ref": "https://unpkg.com/@coldtea/pr-lens-schema/json-schema/config.schema.json" }
+```
+
+## Selectors
+
+A `match` beginning with `id:` addresses exactly one node, as in `id:build-bulk-payload`. Anything else is a repository-relative path glob matched against the node's file paths.
+
+**Prefer the glob.** Ids come from inference and may change when the code does; a path correction survives that. Reach for `id:` only when no path distinguishes the node, or when the node has no files at all (an external service, a queue).
+
+## The four corrections
+
+| | What it does |
+| --- | --- |
+| `rename` | replaces the inferred label |
+| `exclude` | drops matching nodes, and the edges and flow steps that hung from them |
+| `lane` | moves matching nodes into a lane, **creating it** when the document declares no such id |
+| `group` | clusters matching nodes under a sub-group inside their lane |
+
+Up to 128 of each. They are about intent rather than structure: there is no way to add a node or draw an edge here, and the one thing a correction can bring into existence is a lane, a band a repository wants that inference did not find. It takes the id for its label, because the id is the only name this file carries, so write `lane: infrastructure` rather than `lane: l3`. If the map is wrong in a way corrections cannot express, the fix belongs in the analysis, not in this file.
+
+## Recipes
+
+**"Stop showing me the test files."**
+```yaml
+map:
+  exclude: ["**/*.test.ts", "**/__tests__/**"]
+```
+
+**"That node is called the wrong thing."** Match the file it comes from, not its id:
+```yaml
+map:
+  rename:
+    - match: server/lib/broadcast/createBroadcastSendTask.ts
+      to: Send task
+```
+
+**"These belong in a band of their own."** The lane need not exist yet:
+```yaml
+map:
+  lane:
+    - match: infra/**
+      lane: infrastructure
+```
+
+**"Keep the shared library together."**
+```yaml
+map:
+  group:
+    - match: packages/broadcast-lib/**
+      group: broadcast-lib
+```
+
+**"Only draw the architecture."**
+```yaml
+lenses: [architecture]
+```
+
+## Hosted GitHub App comments
+
+The hosted App reads `github` settings from the PR's head commit. Other options apply to the CLI.
+
+| Setting | Default | Effect |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `github.comment.collapsed` | `false` | Start diagrams and details closed. Drawing still runs automatically. |
+
+## Check it
+
+```bash
+npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest validate .github/pr-lens.yml
+```
+
+`pr-lens render` reports any correction that changed nothing about the document it drew. That is a config that has drifted out of date, usually because the file a selector named has moved or gone. It is not an error and nothing stops, but it is worth fixing: a correction that matches nothing is a correction nobody is getting.

+When to load: writing or debugging a graph.json document — full field-by-field format, enums, limits.
+
+# Authoring a graph document
+
+This page is the whole shape, and what a schema cannot tell you besides: which parts matter, and where documents actually go wrong. `references/example.graph.json` is one document that validates, if you would rather read than be told.
+
+The validator enforces the same thing from a JSON Schema, published at `https://unpkg.com/@coldtea/pr-lens-schema/json-schema/graph-doc.schema.json` if you want it machine-readable.
+
+Every schema here is **strict**: an unknown key is a rejection, not a warning. A field with a default may be left out.
+
+## The document
+
+```json
+{
+  "schemaVersion": "0.1.1",
+  "kind": "graph",
+  "title": "Batch broadcast sending through Postmark",
+  "summary": "One paragraph answering: what does this change do?",
+  "lenses": ["architecture", "data-flow"],
+  "provenance": { "repo": { "owner": "…", "name": "…" }, "base": { "sha": "…" }, "head": { "sha": "…" } },
+  "lanes": [],
+  "nodes": [],
+  "edges": [],
+  "flows": [],
+  "stats": {},
+  "views": []
+}
+```
+
+`lenses` declares what the document carries enough detail to draw: `architecture`, `data-flow`, or both. A document carrying flows must declare `data-flow`.
+
+`provenance` is where the document came from: the repository, the base and head commit shas (lowercase hex, 7-40 characters), optionally the pull request and the generator. When you produce a document through the CLI these are filled in from the repository, so do not invent them.
+
+## Ids
+
+`^[A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9._:/-]*$`, at most 128 characters, unique within their own collection. Use readable kebab-case: `broadcast-sender`, not `n1`. An id ends up in an SVG id, a URL fragment and a comment anchor, so nothing else is allowed through.
+
+## Deltas
+
+Every node, edge, flow and flow step declares one: `added`, `modified`, `removed`, `unchanged`.
+
+`unchanged` is not padding. It is the neighbouring code the change touches, and it is what turns a diagram into a blast radius. A document whose every element is `added` describes a change nobody can place.
+
+## Lanes
+
+1 to 16. Every node belongs to exactly one.
+
+```json
+{ "id": "functions", "label": "Cloud Functions", "subtitle": "Node 20", "order": 1 }
+```
+
+`order` (0-64) places lanes left to right; ties fall back to array order. Give a lane a `delta` only when the lane itself is new or gone.
+
+## Nodes
+
+1 to 256.
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "send-broadcast-bulk",
+  "label": "sendBroadcastBulk",
+  "kind": "function",
+  "delta": "added",
+  "lane": "functions",
+  "group": "broadcast-lib",
+  "subtitle": "(broadcastId) => Promise<void>",
+  "summary": "Claims the broadcast, builds one bulk payload and posts it.",
+  "files": [{ "path": "functions/src/broadcast/sendBroadcastBulk.ts", "startLine": 1, "endLine": 142 }],
+  "badges": ["retry"]
+}
+```
+
+`kind` is one of `service app module function route job queue datastore cache external ui config test package other`. It drives the card's icon and shape and nothing else; when in doubt, `other` still renders.
+
+`group` clusters nodes inside a lane: a package, a folder that means something. `files` (up to 64) become diff permalinks. `badges` (up to 6) are extra chips; the delta badge is drawn for you, so do not restate it.
+
+## Edges
+
+Up to 512.
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "bulk-to-postmark",
+  "from": "send-broadcast-bulk",
+  "to": "postmark",
+  "kind": "http",
+  "delta": "added",
+  "label": "POST /email/bulk",
+  "emphasis": "hero",
+  "animated": true
+}
+```
+
+`kind` is one of `call http rpc event queue data dependency render other`. `emphasis` is `normal` (default), `hero` or `muted`. More than one or two heroes and the emphasis stops meaning anything. `from` and `to` must be node ids you declared. This is the single most common failure.
+
+## Flows
+
+Up to 16, for the data-flow lens.
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "send-pipeline",
+  "title": "Sending a broadcast",
+  "delta": "modified",
+  "participants": [{ "node": "queue-route" }, { "node": "send-broadcast-bulk" }, { "node": "postmark" }],
+  "messages": [
+    { "id": "enqueue", "from": "queue-route", "to": "send-broadcast-bulk", "label": "enqueue job", "kind": "async", "delta": "modified" },
+    { "id": "send", "from": "send-broadcast-bulk", "to": "postmark", "label": "POST /email/bulk", "kind": "sync", "delta": "added", "repeat": 4 },
+    { "id": "accepted", "from": "postmark", "to": "send-broadcast-bulk", "label": "200 Accepted", "kind": "return", "delta": "added" }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+- 2 to 12 participants, ordered by array position; each names a node id.
+- 1 to 64 messages. **Step order is array order**: there is no step number field, so a document cannot disagree with its own animation.
+- `kind` is `sync`, `async`, `return` or `self`. `self` requires `from === to`, and no other kind may have them equal.
+- Both endpoints must be participants of that flow, not merely nodes of the document.
+- `repeat` says a step happens more than once per run, e.g. 4 batched requests.
+
+## Stats
+
+```json
+{ "filesChanged": 27, "additions": 1979, "deletions": 1370, "chips": [{ "label": "Postmark calls", "value": "500x fewer", "tone": "hero" }] }
+```
+
+Up to 8 chips, `tone` one of `neutral added modified removed hero`. Per-delta element counts are deliberately absent from the schema: they are derivable from the document, and a stored copy can only go stale.
+
+## Views
+
+The drill-down tree in the comment: up to 32 at the root, nesting up to 32 children each. A document with no views renders as one picture and nothing else.
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "the-new-path",
+  "title": "The new batch path",
+  "lens": "architecture",
+  "summary": "What replaced the per-recipient loop.",
+  "defaultOpen": false,
+  "scope": { "kind": "selection", "nodes": ["send-broadcast-bulk", "postmark"] },
+  "children": []
+}
+```
+
+`scope` is either `{ "kind": "all" }` (the default) or a selection naming at least one lane, node, edge or flow. The two are distinct states on purpose: removing the last element a view pointed at can never quietly turn it into a view of everything. A view's `lens` must be one the document declares.
+
+### Choosing architecture views
+
+Treat the architecture tree as a set of decisions, not a quota:
+
+1. Ask whether the change affects a user, an external system or a system boundary. If it does, start with a system-context view. If it does not, leave that level out.
+2. Show affected applications, services, jobs, data stores and runtimes in a container view. Make it the root when there is no useful context view; otherwise make it a child of that context.
+3. Add a component child only when the internals of an affected container matter to the change. Components may be modules, routes or functions, but the view should explain their responsibilities and relationships rather than mirror folders.
+4. Stop at components unless someone explicitly asks for code-level detail.
+
+One architecture view may be the right answer for a small change. Each child must move down exactly one level and cover a materially narrower scope. Skip a level when it would be empty, speculative or a repeat of its parent. Do not create two views with substantially the same nodes and edges, and do not infer a boundary from a folder name alone. Keep unchanged direct neighbours when they make the blast radius clear.
+
+Set `defaultOpen: true` on the highest useful architecture view. Lower levels should normally stay collapsed. A data-flow view describes an ordered sequence, so keep it as a separate root instead of placing it inside the architecture hierarchy.
+
+This compact fragment shows the shape. The selected ids refer to elements declared elsewhere in the document:
+
+```json
+{
+  "views": [
+    {
+      "id": "checkout-context",
+      "title": "Checkout in its environment",
+      "lens": "architecture",
+      "defaultOpen": true,
+      "scope": {
+        "kind": "selection",
+        "nodes": ["shopper", "commerce-platform", "payment-provider", "fulfilment-system"],
+        "edges": ["shopper-to-commerce", "commerce-to-payment", "commerce-to-fulfilment"]
+      },
+      "children": [
+        {

+          "scope": {
+            "kind": "selection",
+            "nodes": ["storefront", "checkout-api", "orders-db", "payment-provider"],
+            "edges": ["storefront-to-checkout", "checkout-to-orders", "checkout-to-payment"]
+          },
+          "children": [
+            {
+              "id": "checkout-components",
+              "title": "Checkout API components",
+              "lens": "architecture",
+              "scope": {
+                "kind": "selection",
+                "nodes": ["checkout-route", "order-service", "payment-client"],
+                "edges": ["route-to-orders", "orders-to-payment-client"]
+              }
+            }
+          ]
+        }
+      ]
+    },
+    {
+      "id": "place-order-flow",
+      "title": "Placing an order",
+      "lens": "data-flow",
+      "scope": { "kind": "selection", "flows": ["place-order"] }
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+## Walkthrough
+
+Optional in the format, but write one for anything that is not trivial: more than one diagram, a diagram with several changed parts, or any flow. Skip it only when the document is one small diagram whose single step would just repeat the title. A canvas or a share page plays it.
+
+```json
+{
+  "walkthrough": {
+    "steps": [
+      {
+        "id": "four-batch-calls",
+        "heading": "Postmark now gets 500 emails per call",
+        "body": "One call per batch, and Postmark answers with a result for each message.",
+        "stage": { "kind": "flow", "flow": "send-pipeline" },
+        "focus": { "kind": "selection", "messages": ["batch-post", "batch-results"] }
+      },
+      {
+        "id": "blast-radius",
+        "heading": "4 parts added, 2 removed, across 3 lanes",
+        "body": "A 2,000-person broadcast used to make 2,000 calls to Postmark. It now makes 4.",
+        "stage": { "kind": "view", "view": "overview" },
+        "focus": { "kind": "all" }
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+A walkthrough is a short guided tour of the diagrams. It has two to twelve steps. Each step shows one diagram, points at one part of it, and says a few words about it.
+
+Every step is one change, never a description of the diagram: the heading names the thing and what happened to it, built from change words such as added, removed, replaced, now, moved and split, and the body is one line on what that means for behaviour, with the numbers when they matter. The headline change is step one. Write it all for a smart twelve-year-old, in short common words and active voice. The skill page has the rule in full, with examples of a step written well and the same step written badly.
+
+Each step has:
+
+- `heading`: the thing and what happened to it, up to 48 characters, in sentence case. For example "Postmark now gets 500 emails per call".
+- `body`: one line under the heading, up to 140 characters, on what the change means for behaviour. For example "One call per batch instead of one call per person". Required: a heading with no body reads as unfinished.
+- `stage`: which diagram to show. A document can have several diagrams: its views (the drill-down diagrams) and its flows (the sequence diagrams). `{ "kind": "view", "view": "overview" }` shows the view called `overview`. `{ "kind": "flow", "flow": "send-pipeline" }` shows the flow called `send-pipeline`. Leave `stage` out and the step uses the diagram the reader is already on.
+- `focus`: what to zoom in on inside that diagram. `{ "kind": "all" }`, the default, means the whole diagram. A selection means "just these things": name any lanes, nodes, edges or flow steps (`messages`) by id, and the camera zooms to them while everything else dims. A selection must name at least one thing.
+
+The validator checks:
+
+- Every id you name exists in the document. A flow step you name must belong to the flow the stage shows, because flow step ids are only unique inside their own flow.
+- `messages` needs a stage that shows a flow. Leave it out when the stage is an architecture view.
+- Step ids are unique within the walkthrough. Two steps minimum, twelve maximum.
+- A stored map never carries a walkthrough. A map describes the system; a walkthrough tells the story of one change.
+
+## Layout
+
+```json
+{ "direction": "right", "laneOrder": ["api", "functions", "external"], "rank": { "send-broadcast-bulk": 2 } }
+```
+
+Hints, not instructions: the renderer owns final placement, so a diagram stays deterministic and a stale hint cannot break it. Absolute coordinates are not expressible. Omitting `layout` entirely is normal.
+
+## File references
+
+```json
+{ "path": "functions/src/broadcast/sendBroadcastBulk.ts", "startLine": 1, "endLine": 142, "revision": "head" }
+```
+
+Repository-relative POSIX paths: no leading `/`, no drive letter, no backslash, no `..` segment. Lines are 1-based, `endLine` requires `startLine` and may not precede it. `revision` defaults to `head`; use `base` on elements the change removes.
+
+## Length limits
+
+Labels 120 characters, summaries 2000, chip values 32. They are display fields: a label that needs 120 characters is a label the diagram cannot draw.
+
+## Then validate
+
+```bash
+npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest validate .pr-lens/graph.json
+```
+
+Every problem is reported at once, with a path into the document. Fix them all and run it again until it is clean.

+
+# scrollcraft
+
+Scroll is the only input every visitor already knows. This skill treats it as a
+timeline: the wheel is a scrubber, the page is a film with real text on top,
+and each section behaves differently enough that the visitor keeps going.
+
+**What you produce:** an interview brief, a page grammar, a customer-journey
+map, a feeling curve with one engineered peak, a scroll score, one signature
+move, assets, one real HTML page on a token-driven design floor, and a strip of
+screenshots proving it holds up at every scroll position.
+
+Use for: "scrollytelling", "scroll animation site", "a site where scrolling
+plays a video", "Apple-style landing page", "3D scroll world", "make my brand a
+scroll experience", "this looks like a template", or any request for a site
+that should feel like an experience rather than a document.
+
+## What this is not
+
+It is not "generate a flythrough and drop text on it." That produces one device
+applied to a whole page, recognisable at a glance. Four spine rules:
+
+1. **Variety is the product.** At least four device families, never the same
+   device twice in a row. Read [references/devices.md](references/devices.md).
+2. **The world is photographic** unless the brand is genuinely illustrated.
+   Clay/low-poly diorama is banned as a default. Read [references/worlds.md](references/worlds.md).
+3. **No continuous chain** unless the brief is literally "one continuous
+   journey" (then see [references/worldflight.md](references/worldflight.md)).
+4. **A different world is not a different page.** Structure is a separate axis;
+   decide it deliberately. Read [references/uniqueness.md](references/uniqueness.md).
+
+## Step 0: The interview
+
+**Always ask the user in chat before building anything.** Real questions, asked
+and answered in the conversation, written down — not a brief inferred from the
+brand name. Eight questions in one pass:
+
+1. **Vibe in three to five words**, plus up to three references from any medium
+   (film, album cover, shop, magazine, game — not "sites you like").
+2. **The scroll journey, section by section, in their words.**
+3. **The energy curve** — where calm, where intense.
+4. **How should someone feel while scrolling, stage by stage, and what is the
+   ONE moment they should remember?** Becomes the feeling curve and the peak.
+   See [references/feel.md](references/feel.md).
+5. **One thing this site should do that no site they have seen does** — the
+   seed of the signature move.
+6. **How far from premium-minimal?** Offer the range in
+   [references/uniqueness.md](references/uniqueness.md) §5: brutalist,
+   maximalist, playful, retro, dense, editorial, premium-minimal.
+7. **One unbroken world, or distinct scenes?** The biggest structural fork, and
+   it is their call.
+8. **What assets do they already have?** Footage, photos, product shots, brand
+   kit. "Nothing" is fine and means a fully generated world.
+
+Write the answers verbatim into `<workspace>/builds/<name>/BRIEF.md` (use
+write_file) before any act planning. BRIEF.md must contain the eight answers,
+the feeling curve (one line per act: emotion, then cause), the peak (as the
+sentence a visitor would say to a friend), the completed "It's the site where
+___" sentence, and any authored silence. If the user is genuinely unreachable
+in a fully autonomous run, self-author BRIEF.md, mark it
+`Self-authored, not interviewed`, and say so in the report.
+
+## Bootstrap
+
+Run the preflight rather than checking by hand (it catches a stripped ffmpeg
+that reports missing filters as syntax errors):
+
+```bash
+node <skill>/scripts/doctor.mjs
+node <skill>/scripts/workspace.mjs --ensure   # prints workspace, seeds registry
+```
+
+Workspace resolution order: `SCROLLCRAFT_HOME` env var; nearest
+`.scrollcraft.json` (`{ "workspace": "..." }`) walking up from cwd;
+`<project root>/scrollcraft`. Builds live at `<workspace>/builds/<name>/`, the
+fingerprint registry at `<workspace>/FINGERPRINTS.md` (seeded from
+[templates/FINGERPRINTS.md](templates/FINGERPRINTS.md), starts empty — the gate
+stops you repeating *yourself*).
+
+Copy `engine/scrollcraft.js` and `engine/scrollcraft.css` into the build
+folder. **Never edit the engine per-project.** Theme with tokens; write your
+own markup. Bespoke behaviour is bespoke JS in the page, driven off `--sc-p`
+and your own `data-sc-*` attributes.
+
+## Step 1: The brief, journey first
+
+Ask the subject open, in plain prose. Then ask only what Step 0 did not cover:
+what is this and who is it for; the one sentence the page installs; the one
+next action (one label, used everywhere); what they already have; art
+direction from [references/worlds.md](references/worlds.md). Then write the
+**journey**: four to seven beats, each a shift in what the visitor knows or
+feels. Beats are the spine; a section serving no beat is cut. Confirm the
+journey with the user before generating assets — assets are the expensive part.
+
+## Step 2: Grammar, gate, then score
+
+Full detail in [references/uniqueness.md](references/uniqueness.md).
+
+- **Pick a grammar.** Eight, mutually exclusive. Choosing filmic one-shot means
+  saying in the report why the other seven lost. Nav, hero and close follow
+  from the grammar.
+- **Invent the signature move.** One bespoke interaction coded in the page, not
+  a parameter change to a kit device. Interview question 5 is the seed.
+- **Run the fingerprint gate.** The planned build must differ from every row in
+  `<workspace>/FINGERPRINTS.md` on at least 4 of 6 dimensions: grammar, nav
+  treatment, hero device, act-sequence shape, close pattern, signature move.
+  If it fails, change the plan, not the log.
+- **Write the feeling curve before the score table** (method:
+  [references/feel.md](references/feel.md)). Then assign each beat a device in
+  a written table (beat / device / why).
+
+Checks before building: grammar bans hold; 4+ device families; no device
+twice in a row; at most two `scrub` acts; no two adjacent acts with the same
+feeling; one peak with the largest span; total page length 8–14
+viewport-heights.
+
+## Step 3: Assets
+
+Full pipeline, prompt scaffolds and model notes: [references/assets.md](references/assets.md).
+
+**Hermes-native paths first:**
+
+- **User-supplied footage and photos** — no key, no spend, a first-class route.
+  Grade and encode them.
+- **The `image_generate` tool** for stills: one style preamble reused verbatim
+  in every prompt is what makes six images look like one shoot. Inspect every
+  asset (vision_analyze) before use; rerolling beats shipping a bad frame.
+
+**Optional upstream path — kie.ai** (vendored verbatim as
+[scripts/kie.mjs](scripts/kie.mjs)): photoreal stills and camera-move clips.
+Requires the `KIE_AI_API_KEY` environment variable (export it in your shell;
+there is no bundled env file in this port). Check balance with
+`node <skill>/scripts/kie.mjs probe`; a still costs cents, a 5s clip more.
+
+```bash
+node <skill>/scripts/kie.mjs still "<style preamble>\n\n<scene>" out/01-hero.png --ar 16:9
+node <skill>/scripts/kie.mjs shot  "<camera move>" out/01-hero.png out/01.mp4 --dur 5
+bash  <skill>/scripts/encode.sh out/01.mp4 assets/01.mp4
+bash  <skill>/scripts/encode.sh out/01.mp4 assets/01-m.mp4 mobile
+```
+
+**Encode for scrubbing, not playback.** `encode.sh` sets a dense GOP because
+seeking walks from the previous keyframe; a normal web encode scrubs like mud.
+It also strips audio.
+
+## Step 4: Build the page
+
+Write real HTML — real `<h1>`, real `<p>`, real reading order. The engine reads
+`data-sc-*` attributes off your markup and drives it; it never generates DOM.
+Start from [references/template.html](references/template.html). Device
+patterns: [references/devices.md](references/devices.md). Spacing, type, depth,
+colour: [references/taste.md](references/taste.md) — read it before writing
+markup. Theme by overriding tokens, six values and two fonts:
+
+```css
+:root {
+  --sc-canvas: #0A0806;  --sc-surface: #16110E;
+  --sc-ink:    #F5EBDD;  --sc-ink-soft: #A2968A;
+  --sc-accent: #FF5A3D;  --sc-accent-ink: #15110F;
+  --sc-font-display: "Archivo", system-ui, sans-serif;
+  --sc-font-text:    "Geist", system-ui, sans-serif;
+}
+```
+
+## Step 5: Verify by scrolling it
+
+Not optional. Every scroll position is a different frame; failures live between
+the two you looked at. Full procedure: [references/verify.md](references/verify.md).
+
+```bash
+cd <build project> && npm i playwright-core     # once
+node <skill>/scripts/serve.mjs --root . --port 4500 &
+node <skill>/scripts/shoot.mjs --url http://localhost:4500 --out lab/shots
+node <skill>/scripts/shoot.mjs --url http://localhost:4500 --out lab/mobile --width 390 --height 844
+node <skill>/scripts/shoot.mjs --url http://localhost:4500 --out lab/reduced --reduced-motion
+```
+
+The harness walks each act at six positions, waits for scrub video to settle,
+reports dead scroll, cues that never reach full opacity, and composited
+contrast; it writes a contact sheet. Then read `sheet.png` yourself
+(vision_analyze) — the harness proves a clip advances, not that the page means
+anything. Run the feel check ([references/feel.md](references/feel.md) §6):
+scroll cold, one word per act, diff against BRIEF.md. Where they disagree the
+page is wrong, not the brief.
+
+A green run does not cover a real phone (video decoder, autoplay policy, Low
+Power Mode). On any reported mobile defect, deploy
+[references/device-diag.html](references/device-diag.html) beside the site on
+the first round and let the device answer.
+
+## Hard rules (ship-blockers)
+
+No clay diorama default; no "scroll to explore" cues or animated mouse icons;
+no `01 / 06` section counters; at most one eyebrow per three sections; no
+visible em dashes; vary the copy anchor; no device twice in a row; never build
+before the interview; one engineered peak, not zero or three; the close
+resolves instead of fading to a footer; curve before devices; one bespoke
+signature move; 4-of-6 fingerprint clearance against every row; never edit the
+engine; no full-frame dark overlay for contrast (scrim only where text sits);
+no text baked into images; no invented statistics; no `transition: all` or
+animating width/height/top/left (`transform`/`opacity`; `clip-path` for
+wipes); no gradient text or neon glow; no audio on scrub clips; never ship
+without Step 5.
+
+## Output
+
+The build folder including BRIEF.md, then a short report: grammar and why the
+other seven lost, signature move, fingerprint gate result per row, journey,
+feeling curve and peak, feel-check diff, score table, what you generated, what
+you verified with screenshots, and what you could not verify. Append the
+build's row to `<workspace>/FINGERPRINTS.md`.
+
+## Pitfalls
+
+- `scripts/shoot.mjs` needs Playwright (`npm install playwright` or
+  `playwright-core` plus a Chrome install). Hermes' `browser_exec` tool is the
+  lighter alternative for scroll-screenshot verification: serve the build,
+  scroll in steps, capture screenshots, and inspect them yourself.
+- `scripts/kie.mjs` needs `KIE_AI_API_KEY` and paid credit; prefer
+  `image_generate` or user assets when the budget is unclear.
+- `encode.sh` and `doctor.mjs` expect a full ffmpeg build; distro-stripped
+  ffmpeg reports missing filters as command syntax errors — run
+  `scripts/doctor.mjs` first.
+- Upstream script invocations above are copied from upstream docs and
+  unverified by this port beyond `node --check` syntax validation — trust
+  `--help`/source if drifted.
+- The upstream repo ships worked examples and a change log that are not
+  vendored in this port; see the upstream repository if you want them.

+/* ============================================================================
+   scrollcraft: a scroll-driven interaction runtime
+   ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+   Vanilla JS. Zero dependencies. Zero DOM generation.
+
+   The engine does NOT build your page. You author real, semantic HTML and mark
+   it up with data-sc-* attributes; the engine reads them and drives them from a
+   single scroll value on a single rAF loop. That is deliberate: a runtime that
+   generates its own DOM from a config object makes every site it touches look
+   identical, which is the failure mode this replaces.
+
+   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+   ACTS: the unit of scroll time
+   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+     <section data-sc-act="pin" data-sc-span="2.5"> ... </section>
+
+     data-sc-act   scrub | pin | pan | flow   (default: flow)
+     data-sc-clip-map="travel" opts a pinned act OUT of full-life clip mapping.
+                   By DEFAULT a scrub clip is mapped across the stage's entire
+                   on-screen life, not across its pinned travel, because a pinned
+                   stage is visible for a viewport BEFORE the pin begins (sliding
+                   up into view) and a viewport AFTER it ends (sliding off the
+                   top). Mapped to pinned travel, the clip sits on its first
+                   frame through the whole entry and its last frame through the
+                   whole exit: the reader watches a still photograph while the
+                   page moves. Pair it with data-sc-dwell, which moves quickly at
+                   the edges and settles in the middle, so the fast motion lands
+                   on the two slides and the settle lands inside the pin where
+                   the copy is. data-sc-runout is accepted and ignored; it named
+                   the old opt-in for the exit half of this.
+     data-sc-span  viewport-heights of scroll this act owns. Pinned devices only
+                   (scrub/pin/pan). Default 1.5. The engine sets the outer
+                   height and sticks the first .sc-stage / [data-sc-stage] child.
+
+     Every act exposes a normalized progress p (0..1):
+       pinned  p = (y - top) / (height - vh)
+       flow    p = (y + vh - top) / (height + vh)
+     and publishes it as --sc-p on the act element, so CSS can read it too.
+
+   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+   DEVICES: what p drives
+   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+     data-sc-scrub            on <video>. p scrubs currentTime. Blob-loaded, so
+                              it seeks without needing HTTP range support.
+     data-sc-sequence="a/{i}.webp:120:1"
+                              on <canvas>. p scrubs an image sequence
+                              (path template : frameCount : startIndex).
+     data-sc-pan="0.6"        on a wide rail inside data-sc-act="pan". p drives
+                              horizontal travel. Value = extra travel multiplier.
+     data-sc-parallax="-0.2"  translateY by rate * act-progress * viewport.
+                              Negative = moves up faster than scroll (recedes).
+     data-sc-cue="0.1 0.5"    opacity/rise keyed to p. One value = enter+hold.
+                              Two = enter..leave. Add a third for the hold point.
+     data-sc-kinetic="lines"  lines | words | chars. Splits the element and
+                              staggers its reveal across the cue window.
+     data-sc-reveal="up"      up | down | left | right | iris. clip-path wipe.
+     data-sc-count="0 4200"   number bloom across the cue window.
+     data-sc-in               flow-section reveal, fires once on entry via
+                              IntersectionObserver (cheaper, and content that
+                              re-hides on scroll-up is a defect, not an effect).
+                              data-sc-stagger="60" on the parent staggers kids.
+     data-sc-drift="#07090c"  page background interpolates toward this colour
+                              while the act is on screen.
+
+   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+   WORLDFLIGHT: the page mode for one continuous flight
+   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+     <div data-sc-mode="worldflight" data-sc-seam="0.12">

+     </div>
+
+   Acts cut the page into pinned blocks, which is the right shape for a page of
+   chapters and the wrong shape for one continuous camera move: the reader hits
+   the end of an act, the stage unsticks, a static page slides past, and the next
+   act starts the whole thing again. Worldflight removes the seams by removing
+   the blocks. There is ONE fixed stage for the entire page. The only element in
+   document flow is a spacer, whose height the engine sets to the sum of the
+   segment weights plus one viewport so the last flight can finish. Scroll drives
+   the film timeline and the overlay opacity. Nothing else moves.
+
+     data-sc-w        viewport-heights this segment owns. Default 1.3.
+     data-sc-linger   dwell remap for this leg only (see lingerEase). Max 0.6.
+     data-sc-seam     crossfade band, in viewport-heights of scroll. Default 0.12.
+     data-sc-waypoint label published on --sc-seg / the sc:waypoint event, so a
+                      page can draw its own route rail. The engine draws none.
+     data-sc-window   on a copy block: "hero" | "finale" | "from to [in [out]]"
+                      as fractions of the WHOLE track.
+
+   Every clip stays mounted for the life of the page. Segments crossfade by
+   opacity over the seam band; nothing ever swaps a src, because a src swap is a
+   black frame and a black frame is the cut this mode exists to avoid.
+
+   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+   POINTER: interactivity that isn't scroll
+   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+     data-sc-tilt="8"         3D tilt toward the pointer, spring-damped, degrees.
+     data-sc-magnet="0.35"    element drifts toward the pointer inside its bounds.
+     data-sc-spotlight        publishes --sc-mx/--sc-my (0..1) for a light that
+                              follows the pointer across the surface.
+   All three are gated to (hover: hover) and (pointer: fine) and disabled under
+   prefers-reduced-motion. Touch never fires them.
+
+   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+   REDUCED MOTION
+   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+   Fewer and gentler, not zero. Cues still fade (comprehension survives), but
+   translation collapses, video clips are never fetched (the poster holds), and
+   pointer devices are inert. A worldflight still tells its whole story: the
+   posters cross-dissolve through the same seams and the same copy windows.
+
+   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+   THE PLAYHEAD
+   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+   Every scrub clip on the page, act or worldflight, is driven by one smoothed
+   playhead. Scroll only ever writes a TARGET; a standalone rAF loop walks the
+   current time toward it at a fixed fraction per frame (data-sc-lerp, default
+   0.18; 1.0 under reduced motion, which is no smoothing at all). Writes are
+   gated by a deadband and skipped while the decoder is still seeking. Without
+   the smoothing a trackpad flick reads as a stutter, because wheel events do
+   not arrive at a constant rate and a 1:1 write reproduces every gap in them.

+# Assets
+
+Generation through kie.ai, then encoding for scrubbing. All of it via
+`scripts/kie.mjs` and `scripts/encode.sh`.
+
+```bash
+node <skill>/scripts/kie.mjs probe                     # credit check first
+node <skill>/scripts/kie.mjs still "<prompt>" out/01.png --ar 16:9 [--ref brand.png]
+node <skill>/scripts/kie.mjs shot  "<move>"   out/01.png out/01.mp4 --dur 5 [--tail end.png]
+bash  <skill>/scripts/encode.sh out/01.mp4 assets/01.mp4
+bash  <skill>/scripts/encode.sh out/01.mp4 assets/01-m.mp4 mobile
+```
+
+Models: `seedream/5-pro-text-to-image` (and `-image-to-image` when you pass
+`--ref`) for stills, `kling/v2-1-pro` for camera moves. `aspect_ratio`,
+`quality` and `output_format` are all required by seedream; omitting any one
+returns a bare "This field is required" that does not name the field.
+
+**seedream rejects most aspect ratios, and does not say which it takes.** An
+unsupported value fails at `createTask` with `"This aspect_ratio is not within
+the range of allowed options"` and no list, which reads like a malformed request
+rather than a menu problem. Nothing is charged, so the cost is a wasted round
+trip and the time to work out that the string itself was fine.
+
+| `--ar` | Status | Returns |
+|---|---|---|
+| `16:9` | works | 2736x1520 |
+| `9:16` | works | 1520x2736 |
+| `3:4` | works | 1776x2352 |
+| `4:5` | **rejected** | n/a |
+
+The returned pixel dimensions are near the ratio rather than exactly it, so
+derive layout from the file, not from the string you asked for. Treat the table
+as the verified set rather than as the whole allowed list: **use a value from it,
+and if you need another, send one throwaway call before writing a wave of
+prompts around it.** `4:5` is the one that catches people, because it is the
+standard portrait social ratio and every other generator takes it. `3:4` is the
+portrait to reach for here.
+
+---
+
+## How many assets
+
+Fewer than you think. A six-act page needs roughly:
+
+- **2 clips.** One hero move, one texture or detail move. That is the cap from
+  SKILL.md, and it is a quality rule as much as a budget one.
+- **4 to 6 stills.** Posters for the clips, plus whatever the flow and rail acts
+  show.
+
+Every clip also needs a poster, and the poster must be **the clip's own first
+frame**, not a separate generation. Pull it with ffmpeg rather than generating
+a lookalike; a poster that does not match causes a visible jump the moment the
+video paints.
+
+```bash
+ffmpeg -y -i out/01.mp4 -frames:v 1 -q:v 2 assets/01-poster.png
+```
+
+**Use the same ffmpeg `encode.sh` resolved, not bare `ffmpeg`.** `encode.sh`
+goes looking for a full build precisely because the one on PATH may be stripped,
+but this poster line and the PSNR seam check below both call `ffmpeg` directly.
+On a stripped build the WebP muxer is missing and you get `Unable to choose an
+output format for 'poster.webp'`, which reads like a bad filename rather than a
+missing encoder, and `-lavfi psnr` fails with `No such filter: 'psnr'`. Resolve
+it once and reuse it:
+
+```bash
+FF=$(ls -d "$HOME"/AppData/Local/Microsoft/WinGet/Packages/Gyan.FFmpeg_*/ffmpeg-*-full_build/bin/ffmpeg.exe 2>/dev/null | head -1)
+"$FF" -y -i assets/01.mp4 -frames:v 1 -vf scale=1600:-2 -c:v libwebp -quality 82 assets/p01.webp
+```
+
+---
+
+## Stills
+
+1. Pick a world in [worlds.md](worlds.md) and write its preamble once.
+2. Every prompt is: **preamble, blank line, scene**. Verbatim preamble, every
+   time. This is the single thing that makes separately generated images look
+   like one shoot.
+3. Name where the empty space goes, because copy sits on these images.
+4. **Read every PNG before using it.** Generation is cheap; shipping a bad frame
+   is not.
+
+**Pass the real brand object as `--ref`.** For anything with packaging, a logo,
+or a product, hand seedream the actual asset. A label that drifts between shots
+is the first thing a client notices. It holds up remarkably well: the same can
+reads correctly across a dark kitchen, a hard-light flat-lay and a studio
+backdrop when the cutout is passed every time.
+
+---
+
+**Published unit costs** (kie.ai, as of August 2026): `seedream/5-pro` still =
+**28 credits**, `kling/v2-1-pro` 5s clip = **160 credits**. A seven-still,
+two-clip page is therefore around 520 credits. `kie.mjs probe` reports a balance,
+not a delta, so plan the spend from these numbers and probe before and after to
+confirm. Do not trust a probe delta as this build's cost if anything else is
+running against the same key (see [verify.md](verify.md)).
+
+**Plan against those rates; expect the ledger to debit roughly 0.4x of them.**
+Two reconciliations against the account with no other consumer put actual debits
+at about 38% of the per-call sum: 1447 summed against 530 debited, and 2252
+summed against 856 debited. That puts a still nearer ~11 credits and a 5s kling
+clip nearer ~61, though those are back-derived from two samples rather than
+published, so do not quote them as rates.
+
+The practical consequence: **every budget cap in this skill is conservative, and
+a build that comes in at its per-call cap has real headroom.** Keep planning at
+28 and 160, because a ceiling that never under-claims is the right one to hold a
+build to, and because the ratio is an observation about billing rather than a
+published price that will hold. But do not refuse a justified reroll on a cap
+computed at the documented rates, and do not report a per-call sum as measured
+spend.
+
+---
+
+## Real footage the client already has
+
+Supplied footage is usually **flat**: shot log-ish or picture-profiled, with no
+white point. Downscaled straight into the page it produces washed-out acts that
+no amount of scrim tuning rescues, and the instinct to fix it with a CSS filter
+over full-bleed media is the thing taste.md warns against, because a filter
+flattens the whole frame.
+
+Grade it into a pre-encode intermediate instead:
+
+```bash
+# 1. measure. YMIN/YMAX/YAVG tell you whether the clip ever reaches white
+ffmpeg -i raw.mov -vf signalstats,metadata=print:key=lavfi.signalstats.YMAX -f null -
+
+# 2. expand levels + a small saturation lift, and land the fps you want
+ffmpeg -y -i raw.mov -vf "colorlevels=rimin=0.09:gimin=0.09:bimin=0.09:\
+rimax=0.64:gimax=0.64:bimax=0.64,eq=saturation=1.08,fps=30,scale=1920:-2" \
+  -c:v libx264 -crf 16 -an graded.mp4
+
+# 3. then the normal dense-GOP encode for scrubbing
+bash <skill>/scripts/encode.sh graded.mp4 assets/01.mp4
+```
+
+Three more things real footage needs that generated clips do not:
+
+- **Trim before anyone enters frame.** "Nothing enters or leaves" is a hard
+  requirement for a clip the reader can park anywhere in, and real recordings
+  routinely have someone walk through at second nine.
+- **Target 24 to 30fps before `encode.sh`.** A 60fps phone clip at a dense GOP is
+  several times the size for motion no hand can resolve. Decimate with `fps=30`
+  in the intermediate; the dense keyframes then cost half as much.
+- **Re-encode, never stream-copy.** Cuts made with `-c copy` decode badly under
+  a scrubber.
+
+---
+
+## Camera moves
+
+`shot` takes a still and moves the camera through it.
+
+What makes a clip scrub well is not the same as what makes it watch well:
+
+- **One continuous move, one direction.** A dolly-in, a drift down, a slow
+  orbit. Any cut, snap or direction reversal becomes a jolt under the wheel,
+  because the reader controls the playhead and will sit on the reversal.
+- **Slower than feels right when previewed.** The move is spread over two or
+  three viewport-heights of scroll. A move that looks sedate at 24fps feels
+  correct under a hand.
+- **The subject stays in frame throughout.** The reader may park anywhere.
+- **Nothing enters or leaves.** A person walking in is a different shot at
+  frame 1 and frame 120, and the poster will match neither.
+
+Prompt shape: what continues, how the camera moves, then the negatives.
+
+> The camera pushes slowly and steadily forward toward the can, a smooth
+> continuous dolly-in with a very slight downward tilt. The blurred window
+> slides past on the left as parallax. The can stays perfectly still and in
+> frame throughout. One single continuous take, no cuts, no camera shake, no
+> zoom snap. Slow, cinematic, controlled.
+
+The script already sends a negative prompt covering judder, warping, morphing,
+flicker and scene changes, which are the failure modes that specifically wreck a
+scrub.
+
+### Seam locking, if you actually need a chain
+
+`--tail` pins the last frame as well as the first. Leg N's tail is leg N+1's
+head, so the joint is frame-identical:
+
+```bash
+ffmpeg -y -sseof -0.05 -i leg1.mp4 -frames:v 1 -q:v 2 seam1.png
+node kie.mjs shot "<move>" seam1.png leg2.mp4 --dur 5
+```
+
+Extract the seam frame from the **encoded** clip, not the source: re-encoding
+shifts frames slightly, and a seam built from the wrong file is a one-frame pop.
+
+**Chaining on pre-generated anchors makes the legs parallel.** Extracting each
+leg's head from the previous leg's *encoded* file forces the whole flight to
+generate serially, which is roughly 45 minutes for ten legs. Generating every
+anchor still first, then giving leg N `--tail` of anchor N+1 and head of anchor
+N, means all ten clips run at once and every joint is still frame-locked to an
+image both sides were built from. `orrery` did this for a ten-leg flight and
+measured 28.5-39.8 dB across all nine joints, inside the band the serial
+`descent` chain shipped at. The cost is that you must author the anchors as a
+coherent descent, because the model resolves a head-and-tail conflict by pulling
+the camera back.
+
+Most pages should not do this at all. A chain exists only to hide cuts between
+scenes, and varying the device between acts removes the cut instead of hiding
+it, for free and with no failure mode. Chain only when the brief is literally
+"one continuous journey".
+
+---
+
+## Encoding
+
+`encode.sh` sets a dense GOP (`-g 8` desktop, `-g 4` mobile), strips audio, and
+adds `+faststart`.
+
+The reason is the whole trick: **a normal web encode places a keyframe every two
+to five seconds.** Seeking to an arbitrary time makes the decoder walk forward
+from the previous keyframe, so a sparse-GOP file plays perfectly and scrubs like
+mud. Dense keyframes cost file size and buy responsiveness.
+
+Expect roughly 3MB for a 5s 1080p desktop clip and 1.5MB for the 720p mobile
+one. Two clips is about 9MB of video on the page, and the engine fetches each
+only as its act approaches.
+
+**Grain-heavy worlds run about double that.** Documentary grain, moving foliage
+and film texture gave 5 to 6MB per desktop clip at the script's `-crf 20`;
+`-crf 22` is a reasonable dial if a page needs the megabytes back. Longer real
+footage costs proportionally more, so a page carrying 15 seconds of supplied
+video will sit above the 9MB guideline. That can be the right trade, but make it
+deliberately rather than discovering it at the end.
+
+Audio is stripped because these clips are scrubbed, never played. A muted track
+is dead weight and an autoplay-policy hazard.
+
+**A stripped ffmpeg will fail here.** Some toolchains put an ffmpeg on PATH with
+about 50 filters and no `scale`, `fps` or `tile`. It reports `No option name
+near ...`, which reads like a syntax error in your command rather than a missing
+filter. `encode.sh` counts filters and goes looking for a real build; override
+with `SCROLLCRAFT_FFMPEG`.
+
+---
+
+## Portrait
+
+A 16:9 clip covering a 9:16 viewport crops to the middle third, and a
+composition built around negative space on the left loses exactly that space.
+
+Options, in order of cost:
+
+1. **Compose for both.** Keep the subject in the centre third and the copy in a
+   bottom band rather than in side negative space, because the bottom band
+   survives a centre crop and side space does not. Cheapest, and usually enough.
+2. **Native portrait renders.** Generate a 9:16 still and clip for the hero only,
+   wire them as `data-sc-src-mobile`, and swap the poster with `<picture>` so the
+   frame-holder matches the clip it is holding for:
+
+   ```html
+   <picture>
+     <source media="(max-width: 860px)" srcset="assets/01-hero-p.webp">
+     <img class="sc-stage__poster" src="assets/01-hero.webp" alt="">
+   </picture>
+   <video data-sc-scrub data-sc-src="assets/01.mp4"
+          data-sc-src-mobile="assets/01-p.mp4" playsinline muted></video>
+   ```
+
+   A portrait poster with a landscape clip (or the reverse) jumps visibly the
+   moment the video paints, which is the whole failure the poster exists to
+   prevent. `encode.sh` has no portrait mode; do it by hand:
+
+   ```bash
+   ffmpeg -y -i src.mp4 -vf "scale=720:-2" -c:v libx264 -crf 20 -g 4 \
+     -pix_fmt yuv420p -an -movflags +faststart assets/01-p.mp4
+   # cropping a 16:9 source to 9:16 instead of rendering native:
+   #   -vf "crop=ih*9/16:ih,scale=720:-2"
+   ```
+3. **Drop the clip on phones.** Serve the poster and let the copy carry the act.
+   Under reduced motion the engine already does exactly this, so the layout is
+   known to work.
+
+Also step the hero display size down on phones. `--sc-t-4xl` floors at 3.4rem,
+which is a desktop floor: it wraps a normal hero headline to six lines at 390px.
+See [taste.md](taste.md).
+
+Do not solve it with `object-fit: contain`. Letterboxed video on a landing page
+reads as a broken embed.

+  Scrubbing is driven by a rAF poll of scrollY, not scroll events, because a
+  driven browser can move the page without firing them.

+# The device kit
+
+Nine ways for scroll to change the page. Each one is a different answer to "what
+does the visitor's hand actually do here."
+
+Pick per beat, never per page. The variety law from SKILL.md Step 2 applies:
+four or more families, never the same one twice in a row.
+
+Every act publishes `--sc-p` (0 to 1) on its own element, so anything you want
+to drive that the kit does not cover, you can drive from CSS with `calc()`
+against that variable. Reach for that before asking for a new device.
+
+---
+
+## 1. `scrub`: the wheel is a scrubber
+
+The anchor device. A pre-rendered camera move plays under the reader's hand,
+one frame per notch. This is the thing people screenshot and send to each other,
+so spend it on the open.
+
+```html
+<section data-sc-act="scrub" data-sc-span="2.6" data-sc-dwell="0.35"
+         data-sc-drift="#0A0806">
+  <div data-sc-stage>
+    <img class="sc-stage__poster" src="assets/01-hero.webp" alt="">
+    <video data-sc-scrub data-sc-src="assets/01.mp4"
+           data-sc-src-mobile="assets/01-m.mp4" playsinline muted></video>
+    <div class="sc-scrim"></div>
+
+    <div class="sc-copy sc-copy--lead" data-sc-cue="0.08 0.62 0.34">
+      <h1 class="sc-display sc-display--xl" data-sc-kinetic="lines">
+        Your morning shouldn't need two drinks.
+      </h1>
+    </div>
+  </div>
+</section>
+```
+
+- `data-sc-span` is the act's scroll length in viewport-heights. 2.2 to 3.0 for
+  a hero. Below 1.8 the clip flies past; above 3.5 the reader starts wondering
+  whether the page is broken.
+- `data-sc-dwell` (0 to 0.6) remaps time so the camera settles mid-act, exactly
+  where the copy peaks, and moves quicker at the edges. It is the difference
+  between a clip that plays and a shot that lands. Keep it at or below 0.6.
+- `data-sc-src` (not `src`) is deliberate: the engine fetches the clip as a Blob
+  so it seeks without needing HTTP range support, and skips the fetch entirely
+  under reduced motion.
+- The poster is a live frame-holder. It stays up until a real video frame has
+  painted, because iOS keeps a seeked-but-never-played muted video blank and
+  hiding the poster on metadata alone flashes an empty stage.
+
+**At most two scrub acts per page.** The third one is no longer a surprise, and
+it is the heaviest thing on the page.
+
+### Clip time is not cue time
+
+The single most damaging bug this device has, and it is invisible in every
+screenshot taken one at a time.
+
+A pinned stage is on screen for **one viewport before** its pinned travel begins,
+sliding up into view, and **one viewport after** it ends, sliding off the top.
+The act's progress `p` is 0 through the whole entry and 1 through the whole exit.
+So a clip driven by `p` sits frozen on its first frame while it slides in, and
+frozen on its last frame while it slides out. The reader has been scrubbing a
+film with their hand, the film stops, and then the whole page slides a still
+photograph past them. It reads as the site breaking, and it is the fastest way to
+make an expensive page feel cheap.
+
+The engine therefore maps the clip across the stage's **entire visible life**, not
+across its pinned travel, and this is the **default**. Both ends are clamped to
+scroll that actually exists, so a hero at the top of the document still starts on
+frame one and an act near the bottom still reaches its last frame. Cues keep
+using `p`, because cues belong to the pin.
+
+**Pair it with `data-sc-dwell`.** Dwell moves quickly at the edges and settles in
+the middle, which is exactly the shape this mapping wants: the fast motion lands
+on the two slides, and the settle lands inside the pin where the copy is. The two
+were built for each other.
+
+`data-sc-clip-map="travel"` restores the old pinned-travel mapping. There is
+almost no reason to reach for it, and reaching for it reintroduces the freeze.
+
+The harness checks this now (see [verify.md](verify.md)), so a frozen clip fails
+verification instead of shipping. Do not rely on noticing it by eye: every
+individual frame of a frozen clip looks completely correct.
+
+### The playhead is lerped
+
+Scroll never writes `currentTime`. It writes a target, and a standalone rAF loop
+walks the clip toward that target at a fixed fraction per frame. Wheel events do
+not arrive at a constant rate, so a 1:1 write reproduces every gap in them and
+the clip reads as a stutter rather than a glide. Three mechanisms, all on by
+default:
+
+- **Lerp 0.18 per frame.** `data-sc-lerp` overrides it, on the mount root for the
+  whole page or on one `<video>`. Clamped to 0.02 to 1, and never read as 0, since
+  a 0 lerp is a playhead that never moves. Reach for it only when a page's clips
+  are short enough that 0.18 visibly lags the hand. Under reduced motion the
+  rate is 1.0, which is no smoothing at all.
+- **Deadband** of 8ms desktop, 20ms mobile. A write smaller than that costs a
+  seek and shows nothing; on a phone it costs more than it shows.
+- **Seek coalescing.** No seek is queued while the decoder is still resolving the
+  last one. A fast flick otherwise piles seeks up and freezes the clip.
+
+An offscreen clip that has already reached its target stops being touched at all.
+
+This applies to every scrub clip on the page, act or worldflight. It is also why
+`shoot.mjs` waits for the playhead to arrive before each shot: a frame captured
+mid-lerp is a frame the page never actually holds.
+
+---
+
+## 2. `pin`: the frame holds, the content advances
+
+The workhorse, and the cheapest premium effect there is. The stage sticks for a
+few viewport-heights while copy states cross over inside it. Use it when the
+beat is an argument rather than an image.
+
+```html
+<section data-sc-act="pin" data-sc-span="3" data-sc-drift="#12100E">
+  <div data-sc-stage class="pf-argument">
+    <p class="sc-lede" data-sc-cue="0.02 0.34">A cup of coffee. Then a shake.</p>
+    <p class="sc-lede" data-sc-cue="0.30 0.66">Two things to buy, carry and wash.</p>
+    <p class="sc-lede" data-sc-cue="0.62">Or one can.</p>
+  </div>
+</section>
+```
+
+**Minimum useful span is about 1.2.** A pinned act's travel is
+`max(height - viewport, 1)`, so at a span of 1 or below that is one pixel:
+progress jumps 0 to 1 between two scroll notches and every cue, reveal and
+`--sc-p`-driven animation inside the act snaps instead of running. A short quiet
+act is exactly when an author reaches for a small span, which is exactly when
+this bites. If the beat genuinely wants less than a screen of travel, it is a
+`flow` act, not a pinned one.
+
+Cue windows overlap by design: the outgoing line is still fading while the next
+arrives, so the reader never faces empty space. A gap between cues reads as a
+loading failure. Overlap by roughly 15% of the act.
+
+The last cue takes one value and holds, so the act ends on a statement rather
+than fading to nothing before the next section arrives.
+
+### The cue contract
+
+`data-sc-cue="from [to [rampIn [rampOut]]]"`, all in act progress (0 to 1).
+
+| Form | Behaviour |
+|---|---|
+| `"0.2"` | fades in at 0.2 and **holds to the end of the act** |
+| `"0.1 0.6"` | in, plateau, out. Ramps default to 30% of the window each |
+| `"0 0.78 0"` | **greet**: already at full opacity when the act begins, then fades |
+| `"0.1 0.9 0.15 0.4"` | fast in, long slow out |
+| `"0 1 0 0"` | **greet and hold**: full at p = 0, no ramp at either end |
+
+The plateau is the point. Without one a cue is a triangle that touches full
+opacity for a single instant, so the reader has to stop on exactly the right
+pixel to see the line at full strength and every heading reads slightly faded.
+
+Rules the verification pass will catch you on:
+
+- **A hero cue needs the greet form.** `"0 0.7"` ramps up from nothing, which
+  means the landing view, the one screen every visitor sees, has no headline on
+  it. Use a third value of `0`.
+- **The last act's cue must hold.** Give it one value. A closing CTA on a
+  two-value cue fades out before the page ends, and the final screen is empty.
+- **Only the last act may hold.** This is the inverse of the rule above and it
+  is the one that bites. The engine parks a cue only once its act is a viewport
+  and a quarter out of range, so a one-value cue on a *middle* pinned act stays
+  lit through the entire un-pin slide: the line travels a full viewport upward,
+  crosses any fixed header, and overlaps the section that follows. It is
+  invisible until you measure it, and it shows up as a contrast failure on a
+  headline nobody meant to still be on screen. Every act except the last closes
+  its final cue with a two-value window ending at 1.
+- **Ground or greet.** A pinned stage becomes fully visible roughly a viewport
+  *before* its own progress leaves 0, so any pinned act whose first content is a
+  plain two-value cue shows an empty stage for that whole travel. Give the act
+  either a ground that is already there (an image, a held frame, a colour that
+  is doing work) or a first cue in the greet form. The closing act needs a
+  ground, because its hold cue cannot also greet unless you use `"0 1 0 0"`.
+  The rule covers *any* progress-gated content on a pinned act, not just engine
+  cues: a bespoke panel that populates from scroll state has the same empty-stage
+  window and needs the same ground.
+
+---
+
+## 3. `pan`: vertical scroll, lateral travel
+
+Sideways movement reads as *breadth* where vertical reads as *argument*. Use it
+for a range, a lineup, a timeline. Do not use it for a hierarchy: the first item
+in a rail is not read as the most important one.
+
+```html
+<section data-sc-act="pan" data-sc-span="3.2">
+  <div data-sc-stage>
+    <div class="pf-rail" data-sc-pan="0.08">
+      <article class="pf-flavour">…</article>
+      <article class="pf-flavour">…</article>
+      <article class="pf-flavour">…</article>
+    </div>
+  </div>
+</section>
+```
+
+The engine measures `scrollWidth` against the viewport and travels exactly the
+overflow, so the last item lands flush at the right edge. `data-sc-pan="0.08"`
+adds 8% overshoot if you want a breath after the final card.
+
+Span rule: roughly 1 viewport-height per item, plus 1. Four cards want ~5.
+
+**Measure the overflow, do not assume it.** The engine travels exactly
+`scrollWidth - viewport`, so a rail narrower than the viewport travels **zero**
+and the act becomes a pinned stage holding one motionless screen for its whole
+span. Three cards at `clamp(16rem, 26vw, 24rem)` measured 1368px against a
+1440px viewport: overflow **-72px**, travel 0, and the reader turns the wheel
+through two viewport-heights of nothing. It is width-dependent, so it can be
+correct on a phone and dead on a desktop at the same time, which is exactly how
+it survives review: the mobile sheet pans and the desktop sheet looks like a
+still. **The harness did not catch it** and reported `no dead scroll detected`
+on every pass, so this is a manual measurement, not something a green run
+covers:
+
+```js
+const rail = document.querySelector(".rail");
+rail.scrollWidth - innerWidth        // must be a healthy positive number
+```
+
+Aim for at least half a viewport of overflow. If three items do not reach it,
+the fix is not wider cards, it is **more rail**: put the act's heading in as the
+first item and a closing note as the last. Both earn their place (the heading
+stops competing with fixed chrome, the note gives the rail a resolution instead
+of an end), and they add the width the travel needs.
+
+**Give the rail's items a staggered settle driven from `--sc-p`.** Lateral
+travel alone reads as a slideshow on rails; items that arrive in sequence read
+as a drawer being pulled. Exempt the first item, because a pan act needs its
+opening content already present, and floor the opacity around 0.55 so a
+not-yet-settled card reads as arriving rather than as failing to load. Gate the
+whole thing to `prefers-reduced-motion: no-preference`, or the scroll-region
+fallback inherits a page of half-faded items.
+
+**Card copy is read while cropped.** Items enter and leave through the viewport
+edges, so a heading is half-shown for most of its life and two half-headings
+side by side can read as a third word (`TRACE` beside `EVALUATE` becoming
+`RE EVALUATE`). Keep card headings to one short word or two, and expect every
+line of card copy to be read partially cut off.
+
+**Reduced motion.** The rail's transform is not decoration, it is the
+navigation, so it cannot simply be zeroed the way parallax is: that parks the
+act on its first screenful and makes every item past the fold unreachable. The
+engine handles the floor for you, turning the stage into a native
+`overflow-x: auto` scroll region with proximity snapping, so the same items stay
+gettable without motion. If your rail reads better stacked or as a grid at that
+point, override it in your own CSS under `prefers-reduced-motion` (the agency
+reference build relays its three phases out as a grid at desktop widths).
+
+---
+
+## 4. `reveal`: a wipe is a change of state
+
+`clip-path` eating in from an edge. It costs nothing and it reads as
+transformation, which makes it right for the beat where something becomes
+something else. Wrong for merely introducing an image, where a cue is enough.
+
+```html
+<figure data-sc-reveal="up" data-sc-reveal-at="0.15 0.55">
+  <img src="assets/03-carry.webp" alt="…">
+</figure>
+```
+
+`up` `down` `left` `right` `iris`. Reach for `iris` roughly once per page; it is
+the loudest of the five and stops reading as intentional if repeated.
+
+A wipe that runs edge to edge across a full-bleed image is a transition. A wipe
+on a small element is a fidget. Use it big.
+
+**`clip-path` is relative to the border box, not to the ink.** A reveal on type
+set with `line-height` below 1 has a border box shorter than the glyphs, so the
+wipe clips the ascenders off the top and the descenders off the bottom and every
+figure renders as a plain bar. Display numerals and drop figures are the usual
+casualties, because those are the ones set tight. Either give the reveal element
+room (`line-height: 1` and padding to cover the overshoot) or put
+`data-sc-reveal` on a wrapper and leave the type's own box alone. No static
+audit catches this; only a rendered screenshot does.
+
+---
+
+## 5. `kinetic`: type that assembles
+
+Splits a heading into lines, words or characters and staggers them across the
+cue window. Lines are almost always right; words for a short punch line;
+characters approximately never, because it turns reading into waiting.
+
+```html
+<h2 class="sc-display sc-display--lg" data-sc-cue="0.1 0.7" data-sc-kinetic="lines">
+  Coffee that pulls its weight.
+</h2>
+```
+
+Each unit slides up from behind a mask, so it enters from a clean edge rather
+than simply fading. Line masks reserve room for descenders; a mask clipped to
+the line box shears the tails off g, y, p and j, and that is the single most
+common way this effect looks broken.
+
+Line splitting measures real line boxes, so it re-runs after `document.fonts.ready`.
+Do not call it on text that is still loading its face.
+
+**One kinetic headline per act, at most.** Two competing for attention is noise,
+and every heading assembling the same way is the templated rhythm this skill
+exists to avoid.
+
+---
+
+## 6. `parallax`: layers at different rates
+
+Depth from differential movement. Subtle or nothing: past roughly 200px of total
+travel it stops reading as depth and starts reading as a bug.
+
+```html
+<div class="pf-layer pf-layer--back"  data-sc-parallax="-1.4">…</div>
+<div class="pf-layer pf-layer--mid"   data-sc-parallax="-0.6">…</div>
+<div class="pf-layer pf-layer--front" data-sc-parallax="0.35">…</div>
+```
+
+**The rate is in hundreds of pixels, not viewport fractions.** The engine writes
+`rate * (p - 0.5) * 100` px, so the total travel across a whole act is
+`rate * 100` px regardless of screen height. At 0.35 that is 35px across three
+viewport-heights of scroll, which is invisible: usable values are roughly 0.3 to
+1.5 for a layer inside a frame and 1 to 2 for a full-bleed bed.
+
+Negative moves up faster than the scroll, which pushes an element back. Three
+layers is plenty; five is a diorama.
+
+Never put body copy on a parallax layer. Text the reader is trying to read
+should not move relative to the thing they are reading it against.
+
+---
+
+## 7. `count`: numbers that land
+
+```html
+<span class="sc-nums" data-sc-count="0 4200" data-sc-count-at="0.1 0.5">0</span>
+```
+
+Formatting is inferred from the target: decimals from its decimal places,
+thousands separators above 10,000 **or whenever the target itself is written
+with one**. Write the target exactly as it should render, commas included
+(`data-sc-count="0 3,500"`); the engine strips them before parsing. The element
+gets `tabular-nums` so the layout does not jitter while the digits change.
+
+**Only real numbers.** A counter is a truth claim with motion attached, which is
+what makes it persuasive and what makes an invented one a liability. If the
+brand has no verified figure, there is no counter. Check the brand's rules
+first; several forbid this outright.
+
+**A concept, fictional or pre-launch brand has no verified figures, so it has no
+counters.** The device suits a SaaS or agency page and it will look good in the
+score table, which is exactly the trap: every number you could put in it would
+be invented. Decide this before you design an act around a number, not after.
+Real brand, real stats, or a different device.
+
+---
+
+## 8. `flow` + `in`: ordinary sections, done well
+
+Not everything should be pinned. A page of nothing but pinned acts is
+exhausting, and the contrast is what makes the pinned ones land. Normal
+document sections with a reveal-on-entry are the rest of the page.
+
+```html
+<section class="sc-section">
+  <div class="sc-wrap sc-stack" data-sc-stagger="70">
+    <h2 class="sc-display sc-display--md">What is actually in it</h2>
+    <p class="sc-body">…</p>
+  </div>
+</section>
+```
+
+This fires **once**, on entry, via IntersectionObserver. Content that re-hides
+when the reader scrolls back up is a defect, not an effect. Stagger between 30
+and 80ms; longer feels slow.
+
+**A flow section directly after a pinned act takes reduced padding.** The pinned
+stage needs a full viewport to scroll off, and full `--sc-section` padding on
+top of that delays the flow section's first content by another screen. The
+harness will not call it dead scroll, correctly, because the stage is moving.
+The reader still sees a near-empty screen. Cut the block padding there and start
+the first reveal near `p = 0`.
+
+---
+
+## 9. Pointer devices: interactivity that is not scroll
+
+Scroll is a one-dimensional input. A page that only responds to scroll is a
+film. These make it respond to the reader being *present*.
+
+```html
+<div class="pf-card" data-sc-tilt="7">…</div>
+<a class="pf-cta" data-sc-magnet="0.28">Find a stockist</a>
+<section data-sc-spotlight>…</section>
+```
+
+- `tilt`: 3D rotation toward the pointer. 5 to 9 degrees. Past 12 it is a toy.
+- `magnet`: the element drifts toward the pointer. 0.2 to 0.35. Primary CTA
+  only; a page of magnetic elements is unusable.
+- `spotlight`: publishes `--sc-mx` / `--sc-my` for a light that follows the
+  pointer across a surface.
+
+**`magnet`, `parallax` and `cue` all write `transform`, so they cannot share an
+element.** The magnet writes every frame in its own rAF loop, so it silently
+wins and the cue's entrance rise is discarded. On a magnetic CTA, set
+`data-sc-rise="0"` so the cue writes a no-op instead of losing a visible
+animation to a race. A cued element that wants its own continuous transform
+should drive an inner wrapper from `--sc-p` in CSS rather than stacking a second
+device on the same node.
+
+All three interpolate toward the pointer rather than tracking it directly.
+Direct tracking reads as artificial because it carries no momentum. All three
+are gated to `(hover: hover) and (pointer: fine)` and disabled under reduced
+motion, so touch never fires a false hover.
+
+---
+
+## 10. `drift`: the ground moves with you
+
+Not an act. A property of acts, and the thing that makes a page feel like one
+continuous place rather than a stack of slides.
+
+```html
+<section data-sc-act="scrub" data-sc-drift="#0A0806"> …
+<section data-sc-act="pin"   data-sc-drift="#161210"> …
+<section data-sc-act="pan"   data-sc-drift="#0E1412"> …
+```
+
+The page ground interpolates between the values as each act takes over. Keep the
+whole set inside one theme family. Drifting from near-black to cream mid-page
+is not atmosphere, it is the reader wondering whether they clicked something.
+
+Three to five stops across a page. Small steps. The effect should be invisible
+frame to frame and obvious top to bottom.
+
+**Scoping: drift belongs to the first act whose progress is strictly between 0
+and 1.** That is the right pick when acts are long enough that only one is ever
+part-way through, and it is wrong the moment several short acts satisfy it at
+once. On a page of twelve short cuts the ground shown belongs to a section the
+visitor left a screen ago, so a colour arrives late and reads as a bug rather
+than as a slow lag. The advice above ("three to five stops") is written for six
+long acts.
+
+**If several acts can be part-way through at the same time, paint grounds per
+section instead of drifting.** Set an opaque background on each section and let
+the change land on a hard edge. That is also what a cutlist or a chaptered page
+wants on its own terms: a cut is not an interpolation, and interpolating between
+two chapter grounds is precisely the softness those grammars exist to refuse.
+Drift is for pages that are one continuous place.
+
+---
+
+## Composing an act
+
+Devices stack inside one act. A pinned stage can hold a scrubbing clip, a
+parallax layer, a kinetic headline and a spotlight at once. The limit is
+attention, not the engine: **one thing should be the reason each act exists**,
+and everything else in it is support.
+
+If you cannot say in one sentence what an act's moment is, it does not have one.

+# The emotion axis
+
+A page is not sections. It is a sequence of states a person passes through with
+their hand on a wheel. The device kit decides how a page looks, the grammar
+decides what a page is, and this file decides what it does to somebody.
+
+Design the feeling before the acts. An act list written first will always be a
+list of things that happen, and a page of things happening is a page nobody can
+describe afterwards.
+
+Read this after the interview, alongside [uniqueness.md](uniqueness.md), before
+the score table in SKILL.md Step 2.
+
+---
+
+## 1. The feeling curve
+
+Write the curve as its own artifact, in BRIEF.md, before a single act exists.
+One line per act: the emotion, then the thing on screen that causes it.
+
+The emotion column is the constraint. The cause column is the only place a
+device name may appear, and it appears second, because the feeling picks the
+device and never the other way round.
+
+Useful states, not a closed list: curiosity, recognition, unease, doubt,
+tension, awe, delight, relief, intimacy, confidence, resolve, calm.
+
+**If two adjacent acts produce the same feeling, one of them is filler.** Cut it
+or change what it does. Two acts of awe in a row is one act of awe followed by a
+reader who has adjusted. Every emotion is defined by what preceded it, which is
+why the curve matters more than any single peak: relief needs tension in front
+of it, awe needs quiet in front of it, intimacy needs scale in front of it.
+
+The curve also outranks the journey beats from Step 1. Beats say what the
+visitor learns. The curve says what they feel while learning it. When they
+disagree, the curve wins, because nobody remembers what they learned on a page
+that made them feel nothing.
+
+### Worked curve: a canned drink brand
+
+```
+1  Recognition   their own kitchen counter at 7am, shot at eye height
+2  Fatigue       the two containers, the mess, held still while copy names it
+3  Delight       a wipe, and the whole frame is one cold can, condensation running
+4  Trust         macro texture at a scale the eye cannot get in a shop
+5  Appetite      the flavours travelling sideways, each one landing whole
+6  Resolve       everything stops, one can, one line, one place to buy it
+```
+
+### Worked curve: an infrastructure product for engineers
+
+```
+1  Familiar dread  the alert channel at 3am, real markup, already scrolling
+2  Doubt           the log fills and nothing in it explains anything
+3  Clarity         one panel resolves the whole trace, the noise falls away
+4  Control         the visitor moves a selection and the surface answers
+5  Competence      the real numbers arrive on telemetry they can check
+6  Readiness       a live input with a cursor in it, not a button
+```
+
+### Worked curve: a landscape design-build firm
+
+```
+1  Stillness   a garden at dawn, almost nothing moving, held long
+2  Longing     copy naming the space they actually have, small and honest
+3  Curiosity   the drawing builds itself, survey to plan to planting
+4  Weight      material facts as museum labels, stone, cedar, water
+5  Warmth      the same garden five years on, people in it
+6  Intent      a quiet line of running text, not a CTA island
+```
+
+### Worked curve: a live event or festival brand
+
+```
+1   Pulse       a cut before the reader has settled, sound implied not played
+2   Appetite    faces, close, one per screen, gone
+3   Envy        the year before, at speed, twelve cuts in a viewport-height
+4   Urgency     the real date and the real capacity, counting
+5   Belonging   one held frame, the crowd, the only slow moment on the page
+6   Decision    abrupt, full bleed, the ticket line and nothing else
+```
+
+Note what the fourth curve does that the others do not: its one slow act is the
+peak, because on a page made entirely of cuts, stopping is the loudest thing
+available. The peak is defined by contrast with its own page, not by an absolute
+amount of spectacle.
+
+---
+
+## 2. The peak
+
+People remember one peak moment and the ending. The middle compresses into a
+general impression and then goes. This is the peak-end rule and it is the single
+most useful thing known about how anybody experiences a sequence.
+
+So every build engineers **one deliberate peak**. Name it in BRIEF.md as the
+sentence a visitor would say to a friend:
+
+> the screen went black and then the whole ocean lit up under me
+
+Not "the hero is impressive". A described moment, with a before and an after.
+
+The peak gets three things, and it gets them at the expense of other acts:
+
+| It gets | Because |
+|---|---|
+| The asset budget | The best generated frames or the only real footage go here, not to act two |
+| The silence before it | An act of quiet, or an empty viewport, so the change has something to be a change from |
+| The most scroll room | The largest `data-sc-span` on the page, and the `data-sc-dwell` that makes the camera settle exactly on it |
+
+**A page with three peaks has none.** Three impressive acts flatten each other,
+and the visitor leaves able to say the site was nice and unable to say what
+happened. If a second act is competing, demote it: shorter span, less asset,
+plainer device. Something has to be the biggest thing.
+
+**The ending must resolve.** The last feeling is the one they carry, and a page
+that trails off into a footer overwrites everything the peak did. Resolution
+means the page arrives somewhere and stops: the divider collapses, the world
+lands at a place, the type shrinks to its quietest setting, the surface hands
+over an input. The close cue holds (see the cue contract in
+[devices.md §2](devices.md)) so the final screen still has something on it. A
+closing act that fades to an empty stage is the page apologising for existing.
+
+---
+
+## 3. The tell-someone test
+
+Before building, complete this sentence:
+
+> it's the site where ___
+
+Then look at what filled the blank.
+
+- "it has a scrub video" is a device name. No memory hook yet.
+- "the background changes colour" is a device name wearing a description.
+- "you dive to the bottom of the ocean and the pressure readout keeps climbing"
+  is an experience. That is a hook.
+- "you drag the letters of the logo apart and they snap back perfectly" is an
+  experience. That is a hook.
+
+The blank has to be something that happened **to the visitor**, phrased from
+their side. If the sentence only makes sense to someone who has read the build
+folder, it fails.
+
+This sentence goes in BRIEF.md, and the signature move from
+[uniqueness.md §3](uniqueness.md) usually lives inside it. If the signature move
+and the tell-someone sentence point at different moments, one of them is
+decoration. Merge them, or cut the one that is not the peak.
+
+The test is also the fastest fingerprint check available. If the sentence would
+be true of an existing build in
+`<workspace>/FINGERPRINTS.md`, the page is not new yet.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Being in it, not watching it
+
+A film plays whether you are there or not. The difference between a viewer and a
+participant is whether the page acknowledges that somebody specific is here: how
+fast they are moving, where their pointer is, whether they stopped.
+
+Concrete techniques, in this skill's vocabulary:
+
+- **Pointer parallax that moves the world, not a card.** `data-sc-spotlight`
+  publishes `--sc-mx` / `--sc-my`. Drive a background layer's transform off them
+  instead of a highlight, and the environment shifts as the visitor moves,
+  slightly, the way a real space does when you lean.
+- **Dwell-triggered detail.** Hold still on an act and something further arrives:
+  a caption, a second line, a small annotation. Reward for stopping. Read
+  `--sc-p` staying constant across a few frames, in the page's own JS, and reveal
+  something that was never needed for comprehension.
+- **Scroll velocity shaping intensity.** Fast scrolling raises grain, blur,
+  chromatic offset, ground saturation. Slow scrolling settles it. The page feels
+  like it is being driven rather than played back, and it costs one derived
+  custom property.
+- **The page addressing "you" at one moment that lands.** Not throughout, which
+  is just copywriting. One line, at the emotional turn, in second person, when
+  the visitor is already implicated. It works because it is the only time.
+- **A trace of where they have been.** Anything that accumulates as they travel,
+  so arriving at the end means having a record rather than reaching a footer.
+
+**Embodiment is seasoning. One or two per page.** A page that reacts to
+everything feels haunted, not alive: the visitor stops reading and starts
+poking, which is the opposite of what any of this is for. Pick the one that
+serves the peak and leave the rest.
+
+Everything here is gated to `(hover: hover) and (pointer: fine)` and off under
+reduced motion, same as the pointer devices. A technique that only exists on
+desktop cannot be the thing that carries the page's meaning.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Pacing as emotion
+
+Scroll distance is emotional time. It is the only clock this medium has, and it
+is fully under your control, which makes it the cheapest emotional instrument in
+the kit and the one most often left at default.
+
+| Pacing | Reads as | Built with |
+|---|---|---|
+| Short acts, hard cuts | Adrenaline, pulse, impatience | Acts under 1.4vh, no `pin`, `dwell` at 0 |
+| A long pin | Held breath, pressure, attention | `data-sc-span` 3+, overlapping cues, one idea |
+| An empty viewport before a reveal | Silence before the drop | A ground-only act, no cue until the next one |
+| A slow settle mid-act | The shot landing | `data-sc-dwell` 0.35 to 0.6 with the cue peak on the settle |
+| A fast cue with a long plateau | Confidence, arrival | `data-sc-cue="0.1 0.9 0.08 0.4"` |
+| A slow ramp in | Hesitation, dawning | Long `rampIn`, and use it once, because it is close to feeling broken |
+
+Three rules follow.
+
+**A continuous world is the exception to pacing variety.** Everything in this
+section is about a page of acts, where varying the length is how you vary the
+feeling. A worldflight is one camera move, and a camera that changes speed
+between legs reads as broken rather than as expressive. There, hold one pace and
+let the peak carry the shape by being the single long leg. See worldflight.md
+section 7c.
+
+**Give the peak room.** The peak act should have the largest span on the page by
+a visible margin. If every act is 2.2vh, the page has no shape, whatever the
+curve in BRIEF.md says.
+
+**Compress the administrative parts.** Specs, logistics, FAQ, credentials: these
+are information, not experience. Flow sections at short stagger, not pinned acts
+with dwell. Spending scroll on them is spending the visitor's patience on the
+part they will not remember.
+
+**Silence has to be authored, not left over.** An empty screen you meant reads
+as anticipation. An empty screen you did not mean reads as a page that failed to
+load, and the harness reports both as dead scroll. If you are using the empty
+viewport before the peak, say so in BRIEF.md so the verification pass knows the
+difference.
+
+The total-length budget from SKILL.md still holds at 8 to 14 viewport-heights.
+Pacing is how that budget is spent, not permission to spend more of it. A page
+that needs 20vh to land its curve has too many acts, not too little room.
+
+---
+
+## 6. The feel check
+
+A verification pass, run after the harness in SKILL.md Step 5, against the
+contact sheets and a live scroll. The harness measures whether the page works.
+This measures whether it does what it was for.
+
+Run it in this order, and do not reread BRIEF.md first. The whole value is in
+arriving cold.
+
+1. **Scroll the page top to bottom at a normal reading pace.** Once. No stopping
+   to fix things.
+2. **Write down what you felt, act by act.** One word per act, before looking at
+   anything. If an act produces no word, write nothing for it, because nothing is
+   the finding.
+3. **Now open BRIEF.md and diff the two curves.**
+
+**Where they disagree, the page is wrong, not the brief.** Rewriting the
+intended curve to match what got built is the same failure as rewriting a
+fingerprint row: it turns the artifact into a description of the accident.
+
+Then three specific checks:
+
+- **Does the peak read as the peak?** On the contact sheet it should be the
+  largest visual change on the page and it should occupy the most scroll room.
+  If a different act is the biggest thing on the sheet, that act is the real
+  peak and the plan lost. Fix the page or admit the new peak in BRIEF.md and
+  give it the budget.
+- **Is there silence in front of the peak?** Look at the act before it. If it is
+  as loud as the peak, the peak has nothing to arrive from.
+- **Does the end resolve?** The last screen should be able to stand still with
+  content on it. Blank final frame, a cue that faded out, or a footer that just
+  begins means the page ended rather than finished.
+
+Two adjacent acts that produced the same word in step 2 is the filler finding
+from §1, caught late. Cutting one is almost always right, and almost always
+improves the total length budget at the same time.
+
+Report the diff in the final output: the intended curve, the felt curve, and
+what you changed. A build that reports them as identical on the first pass
+either got lucky or did not do the check cold.

+# The taste floor
+
+Read this before writing markup, not after. Build without announcing the
+checklist.
+
+Everything here is a check on the **rendered result**, not on intention. "I used
+a spacing scale" is not evidence; a computed value is.
+
+---
+
+## Spacing
+
+Rhythm comes from the contrast between tight and generous, never from one value
+repeated until everything weighs the same. If you can't point at which intervals
+are the tight ones and which are the breaks, the page has no rhythm.
+
+- Use the 4px-base scale (`--sc-1` … `--sc-11`). A 4-base gives the useful
+  middle steps an 8-only scale misses.
+- **More space above a heading than below it.** The gap belongs to the boundary
+  between sections, not to the heading-and-body pair. Getting this backwards is
+  the single most common spacing error, and it makes a page read as a list.
+- Section padding is fluid (`--sc-section`). A phone should not inherit desktop
+  air; 8rem of padding on a 375px screen is a scroll tax.
+- Group by proximity before reaching for a container. If you added a border to
+  show two things are related, the spacing was wrong first.
+- Gutters scale with viewport (`--sc-gutter`). Full-bleed media goes edge to
+  edge; text never does.
+
+**Optical, not mathematical.** Equal computed padding around a shape with
+uneven visual weight looks wrong. Correct against the render, not the number.
+
+---
+
+## Typography
+
+- **Two families maximum.** Display carries voice, text carries prose. A third
+  is a costume.
+- **Tracking tightens as size grows.** A face set at 6rem with default tracking
+  reads loose and amateur. The ramp handles this: `--sc-track-tight` on display,
+  `--sc-track-normal` on body. This is optical correction, not decoration.
+- **Body measure 45 to 75ch.** `--sc-measure` is 62ch. A full-width paragraph on
+  a 1600px monitor is unreadable regardless of font size.
+- **Line height inverse to measure.** Wider lines need more leading. Display at
+  0.94 to 1.06, body at 1.6.
+- **Light text on dark needs compensation on three axes**: slightly more line
+  height, a touch more tracking, one step more weight. Dark-mode type set with
+  light-mode metrics looks thin and blurry, and this is why.
+- `text-wrap: balance` on headings, `pretty` on body. Free, and it removes the
+  orphan word that makes a headline look accidental.
+- Display max ~6rem outside a genuine hero moment. Bigger is not more confident.
+- **Step the hero down one rung below ~700px.** `--sc-t-4xl` floors at 3.4rem,
+  which is a *desktop* floor: at 390px it wraps a normal hero headline to six
+  lines. `--sc-t-2xl` on the hero inside a phone media query fixes it. The
+  portrait crop of the image is covered in assets.md; this is the portrait crop
+  of the type, and it is missed more often.
+
+**Font choice.** Inter is discouraged as a default: it is the most-used face in
+AI-generated pages and it reads as a non-decision. Reach first for Geist,
+Archivo, Outfit, Satoshi, Cabinet Grotesk, or the brand's own face. Inter is
+correct when the brand asks for neutral, or when accessibility is the brief.
+
+**Serif is not a synonym for premium.** "It feels editorial" is not a reason.
+Use one only when the brand names it, or when the work is genuinely editorial,
+luxury, or heritage and you can say why *this* serif fits *this* brand.
+
+**Emphasis inside a headline** uses italic or bold of the same family. Dropping
+a serif word into a sans headline for visual interest is amateur.

+- **Six roles, one accent.** Canvas, surface, ink, ink-soft, accent, accent-ink.
+  The accent owns a region or a role; scattered tiny accents are confetti.
+- **Lock the accent for the whole page.** A warm-grey site does not grow a blue
+  CTA in section seven. **The one exception is a page that hard-cuts between
+  light and dark grounds**, which physically cannot clear 4.5:1 on both with a
+  single stop. That page carries a two-stop accent: one hue, two lightnesses,
+  keyed to the ground family, redefined per section alongside the ink. Still one
+  accent per ground, and still one hue for the page. Two different hues is not
+  what this licenses.
+- **Secondary text is tinted, never flat gray.** Derive it from the foreground
+  or surface hue. `#888` on a warm dark ground looks dirty.
+- **No pure black.** `#000` has no air in it. Off-black at minimum.
+- Contrast, measured on the render: body ≥4.5:1, large text ≥3:1, controls and
+  focus indicators ≥3:1.
+- Drift keeps the whole page in one theme family. See devices.md §10.
+
+**Redefining `--sc-ink` on a subtree does not re-ink the text under it.**
+`color` is inherited as a *computed value*, so text whose `color` already
+resolved on `<body>` keeps the body's ink no matter what the section redefines
+the token to. Every page that inverts a ground mid-page hits this, and it fails
+silently: an inverted section renders bone type on concrete at 1.15:1 while the
+harness correctly classifies the line as light-on-dark and grades it in the
+wrong direction. The fix is one declaration on the same subtree:
+
+```css
+.section--light { --sc-ink: #14110C; --sc-ink-soft: #4A443A; color: var(--sc-ink); }
+```
+
+Restate `color` wherever you restate the token. The same applies to any other
+inherited property you drive from a token on a subtree.
+
+**The premium-consumer palette trap.** Warm cream background, brass or clay
+accent, espresso near-black text is the default reach for every artisan, food,
+wellness and craft brief, and it makes every such brand look identical. Do not
+default to it. Rotate: cold silver and chrome; deep forest with bone and amber;
+true off-black with warm tan; cobalt against a single neutral; olive with brick.
+Use cream-and-brass only when the brand names those colours.
+
+**The AI-purple trap.** Violet-to-blue gradients, neon glow, glowing buttons.
+Not unless the brand asks.
+
+---
+
+## Text over media
+
+"No full-frame overlay" is the rule. Here is what to do instead, because the
+rule on its own sends people to a slightly weaker full-frame overlay.
+
+There are three shapes, and which one is right depends only on where the copy is:
+
+1. **A corner** of density, sized to the copy block. `.sc-scrim--lead` /
+   `.sc-scrim--trail`. Right when the copy is anchored to a corner on a wide
+   screen. An edge gradient has to darken a whole band across the frame to cover
+   one corner; a corner gradient puts the density where the text is and leaves
+   the photograph alone.
+2. **A band**, `.sc-scrim--band`, transparent above roughly 58%. Right whenever
+   the copy spans the full width of the frame, which is what *both* corner
+   anchors become below 860px. The engine already switches `.sc-scrim--trail` to
+   a band there for exactly that reason.
+3. **A column** of density under a text column, on an act where the copy holds
+   one side of a full-bleed image. Leaves the other half of the frame untouched.
+
+**`width` and `height` attributes are presentational hints, and they come in
+pairs.** The reference template ships every `<img>` with both, correctly, because
+they reserve the aspect ratio and stop the page reflowing as media arrives. The
+trap is that overriding only one of them in CSS leaves the other resolving to the
+attribute's raw pixel value, so `width: 100%` on a 1920x1080 image inside a
+narrow column renders it 1080px tall and pushes everything under it off the fold.
+It looks like a layout bug three elements away from its cause. **Override both or
+neither**, usually `width: 100%; height: auto`, or an explicit height plus
+`object-fit: cover` when the frame's shape is the design.
+
+And the positive case behind all three: when a photographic ground sits behind a
+text column, **mask the image away from the text** rather than laying anything
+over it. A `mask-image` or a clip that ends where the column begins gives the
+type a clean ground and gives the photograph its full contrast back, and it is
+better than any scrim.
+
+**A scrim must not be a child of the text it protects.** The verification pass
+hides the copy element and everything inside it to photograph the frame
+underneath, so a `::before` on the copy block is hidden too and the scrim is
+never measured. Put it in a sibling element. See verify.md.
+
+Then measure it. A scrim tuned by eye is routinely 9:1 where 4.5:1 was needed,
+which is a photograph thrown away for nothing, or 2.8:1 on the one frame the
+clip brightens under the copy. Both are invisible until the harness reports the
+number.
+
+---
+
+## Depth
+
+Depth is the axis that separates a premium page from a styled document, and it
+is not one property. Five tools, used together:
+
+1. **Shadow with offset and blur.** Real raised things cast light downward.
+   A zero-offset coloured halo is decoration, not depth. Tint the shadow to the
+   canvas hue; pure black shadows on a coloured ground look like dirt.
+2. **Edge light.** A 1px top highlight (`--sc-edge`) sells a raised surface
+   better than any amount of blur, because real lips catch light.
+3. **Scale and blur as distance.** Things further away are smaller, softer, and
+   lower contrast. Parallax without those reads as sliding, not depth.
+4. **Overlap.** One element crossing another's boundary establishes more depth
+   than any shadow. Free, and underused.
+5. **Grain.** A flat dark ground bands on real displays. `.sc-grain` at 4-5%
+   opacity is the difference between "a dark page" and "a lit room".
+
+Three elevation steps (`--sc-e1/2/3`) and no more. If everything is elevated,
+nothing is.
+
+---
+
+## Cards
+
+Cards are the lazy container. Before using one, ask what it is doing that
+proximity, a hairline, or space could not.
+
+- **Never a grid of identical icon + heading + text cards as the page
+  structure.** It is the most recognisable AI-page tell there is.
+- **Never nest cards.**
+- **Never three equal columns of feature cards.** Use an asymmetric grid, a
+  two-column zigzag (max two in a row), a rail, or plain type on space.
+- If a multi-cell grid has an empty trailing cell, the grid was planned wrong.
+  Reshape it; do not paste a blank tile.
+- Pick one corner-radius scale and hold it across the page. Pill buttons on a
+  square-card page is broken, not eclectic.
+
+---
+
+## Motion
+
+The scroll devices are the page's motion. Everything else is small and fast.
+
+- `transform` and `opacity` only for anything continuous. `clip-path` is the
+  sanctioned third for wipes. Never animate width, height, margin, padding, top
+  or left, and never `transition: all`.
+- **Never `ease-in` on UI.** It delays the moment the eye is already on.
+  `ease-out` at 200ms feels faster than `ease-in` at 200ms.
+- Built-in CSS easings are too weak. Use `--sc-ease-out`
+  (`cubic-bezier(0.23, 1, 0.32, 1)`).
+- **UI transitions under 300ms.** Hover 120-180ms, buttons 100-160ms. Scroll
+  devices are exempt: they are paced by the hand, not by a duration.
+- **Never `scale(0)`.** Enter from `scale(0.95)` + `opacity: 0`. Nothing in the
+  real world appears from nothing.
+- Press feedback on anything pressable: `scale(0.97)` or `translateY(1px)`.
+- Stagger group entrances 30 to 80ms. Longer feels slow.
+- Gate hover motion to `(hover: hover) and (pointer: fine)`; touch fires false
+  hovers on tap.
+- Reduced motion means **fewer and gentler, not zero**. Keep the opacity that
+  carries comprehension, drop every position change.
+
+---
+
+## States and content
+
+- Every interactive element gets hover, focus-visible, active and disabled.
+  A page with only the resting state is half-built.
+- **Focus-visible must be visible.** Themed to the accent, with offset.
+- **Button text fits on one line at desktop.** A wrapped CTA is broken. Primary
+  CTA labels are one to three words.
+- **One label per intent.** "Get in touch" in the nav and "Let's talk" in the
+  footer are the same button with two names. Pick one and use it everywhere.
+- **Check button contrast.** White text on a light button, or a ghost button on
+  a photo with no scrim, fails.
+- Real copy, not lorem. Real names, not "John Doe". Real numbers or no numbers.
+- **No invented statistics.** Fake precision (`4.1×`, `92%`, `48k`) is a legal
+  and credibility liability, not a design element.
+
+---
+
+## Browser surfaces
+
+The parts you did not draw still carry the design, and this is the cheapest
+signal that a page was built rather than assembled. It is also the step that
+gets skipped most reliably. `scrollcraft.css` themes all of these; if you fork
+it, keep them:
+
+selection colour, caret colour, focus ring, scrollbar, underline offset and
+thickness, tabular numerals in anything that counts or tabulates.
+
+---
+
+## The refuse list
+
+Category defaults, not bans on principle. The brief's own words can earn any of
+them; reaching for one when the axis is free means you were not deciding.
+
+**Structure**
+- Identical cards as page structure. Nested cards. Three equal feature columns.
+- The hero-metric template: big number, small label, supporting stats, accent.
+- More than two consecutive image-left / text-right zigzag sections.
+- The same layout family twice on one page.
+- A split header: giant headline left, small explainer paragraph floating right.
+
+**Labels**
+- An eyebrow above every section heading. At most one per three sections.
+- Section numbers (`01 / 06`, `002 · Capabilities`) unless the sequence itself
+  is information the reader needs.
+- Scroll cues: "scroll", "↓ scroll", "scroll to explore", animated mouse icons.
+  They are looking at the hero. They know.
+- Decoration text strips (`BRAND. MOTION. SPATIAL.`) across the hero bottom.
+- Locale, time and weather strips unless the brand is genuinely about a place.
+- Pills and tags overlaid on photos. Version stamps on a marketing page.
+
+**Surface**
+- Gradient text. Neon and outer glows. Hard offset zero-blur shadows outside a
+  world that is actually neobrutalist.
+- Glass and blur as decoration rather than as a specific effect.
+- Coloured `border-left` above 1px on cards, callouts or list items.
+- Monospace as a costume for "technical" rather than for code, data, or labels.
+- Emoji standing in for an icon system. Use a real icon library.
+- Custom cursors.
+
+**Content**
+- Em dash anywhere visible. Period, comma, colon, or parentheses.
+- Div-built fake screenshots, fake dashboards, fake terminals.
+- Text baked into a generated image. Real markup, always.
+- Filler verbs: elevate, seamless, unleash, next-gen, revolutionize, supercharge.
+- A hero that overflows the viewport. Headline max two lines, subtext max 20
+  words, CTA visible without scrolling.
+- More than four text elements in the hero. Trust logos, pricing teasers and
+  micro-taglines move to their own section below it.
+
+---
+
+## The squint test
+
+Blur the page until detail is gone. You should still be able to name the
+primary element, the secondary element, and the major groups, in that order.
+
+If everything greys into one even field, the problem is hierarchy, and no amount
+of shadow, gradient or motion will fix it.

+# The structure axis
+
+## 1. The template trap
+
+Four sites were built with this skill: a protein coffee brand, a personal brand,
+a landscape design-build firm, and an agent observability product. Four
+industries, four worlds, one light canvas and three dark. The owner looked at
+them side by side and said they felt like a template. He was right, and the
+evidence is in the files.
+
+All four open with a full-bleed `scrub` under a fixed minimal top bar carrying a
+wordmark and one CTA. All four anchor the hero headline in the lead corner with
+a greet cue and kinetic lines. All four run a pinned type act where lines
+crossfade. All four hand off to a flow section, pan a card rail with a
+`data-sc-tilt="6"` on each card, and close on `data-sc-act="pin"` with
+`data-sc-span="1.15"`, `data-sc-spotlight` on the stage and
+`data-sc-magnet="0.26"` on the CTA. All four land between 13.6 and 13.8
+viewport-heights across 6 or 7 acts with exactly one accent colour.
+
+What actually varied was the order of the middle acts and the palette.
+
+The device kit is an **aesthetic** axis. It changes how a page looks. It has no
+opinion on what a page *is*, so every build reached for the same shape, because
+the shape was never a decision anybody made.
+
+> The world changes how a page LOOKS. The grammar changes what a page IS.
+> A build that only changes world is a re-skin.
+
+This file is the structure axis. Read it after the interview and before the
+score table. It has three parts that are not optional: pick a **grammar**,
+invent a **signature move**, and pass the **fingerprint gate**.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Page grammars
+
+A grammar is the page's organising logic: what a section is, what the chrome is
+for, how the visitor knows where they are, and what the ending is. Two pages in
+the same grammar will feel related no matter how far apart their palettes are.
+That is the whole finding above.
+
+Each grammar below names what it **forbids**. The forbids are the point. They
+are what stops a build drifting back to the filmic default halfway through,
+which is what happens when a grammar is a preference instead of a constraint.
+
+Pick one. Do not blend two: a chaptered page with a continuous world underneath
+is a filmic one-shot with extra headings.
+
+---
+
+### 2.1 Filmic one-shot
+
+The original skeleton, and now one choice among eight rather than the house
+style.
+
+**Fits:** a single linear argument with one emotional arc. Consumer products,
+launches, anything where the visitor should feel carried rather than
+navigating.
+
+**The scroll feels like:** a film you are pushing through. Continuous, no seams,
+each act handing off before the last has left.
+
+**Forbids:** visible sequence (chapter numbers, an index, a progress readout);
+hard cuts between grounds; any chrome that implies the page is a tool; more than
+one entry point. If the visitor can jump, it is not one shot.
+
+**Nav, hero, close:** fixed minimal bar, wordmark and one CTA. Full-bleed scrub
+hero, corner-anchored kinetic headline on a greet cue. Pinned close with a
+spotlight and a magnetic CTA.
+
+**Leans on:** `scrub`, `pin`, `drift`, `kinetic`. **Bans:** nothing structural,
+which is exactly why it is the default drift and why four builds landed here.
+
+**Use it when the interview earns it, and say in the report why the other seven
+did not fit.** This grammar now carries a burden of proof the others do not.
+
+---
+
+### 2.2 Chaptered editorial
+
+The page is a printed feature. Chapters are the unit, not acts.
+
+**Fits:** long-form substance. A method, a manifesto, a founder story, a
+research-backed product, anything where the visitor should feel they read
+something rather than watched something.
+
+**The scroll feels like:** turning pages. Full-stop intertitles between
+chapters, then dense asymmetric spreads. Hard cuts, not crossfades. Each chapter
+lands on its own ground and stays there.
+
+**Forbids:** `drift` as a continuous gradient (each chapter is a hard change of
+ground, not an interpolation); the full-bleed scrub hero; pinned crossfade type
+acts; a magnetic CTA; centred hero copy. Media never bleeds under type here, it
+sits in its own column with a caption.
+
+**Nav, hero, close:** no fixed bar. A folio in the margin, chapter number and
+title, updating as chapters pass. The hero is a **title page**: type on the
+paper ground, no media above the fold, the media starts in chapter one. The
+close is a colophon or masthead plate, small type, the CTA set as a line of
+running text rather than a button island.
+
+**Leans on:** `flow` + `in`, `reveal` at chapter boundaries, `parallax` inside a
+media column, `count` for real figures inside prose. **Bans:** `scrub` beyond
+one chapter, `spotlight`, `magnet`.
+
+---
+
+### 2.3 Live surface
+
+The page behaves like the product. Not a screenshot of it, and not a div-built
+fake: the actual surface, running, with scroll driving its state.
+
+**Fits:** software, tools, dashboards, editors, anything where the demo is the
+argument. If the honest pitch is "watch what it does", this is the grammar.
+
+**The scroll feels like:** operating something. Panels populate, a log fills, a
+graph advances, a selection moves. The visitor is inside the thing.
+
+**Forbids:** marketing chrome of any kind. No wordmark-plus-CTA bar, no scrims,
+no full-bleed photography, no kinetic headline stacks, no hero claim laid over
+footage. Copy lives in the surface's own idiom: labels, tooltips, empty states,
+status lines, a help panel. A section heading in 6rem display type breaks this
+grammar instantly.
+
+**Nav, hero, close:** app chrome replaces nav. A sidebar, a tab strip, a status
+bar, a breadcrumb, whatever the real product would have, and it is real enough
+to be the navigation. The hero is the surface already in a state, not a title.
+The close is an **actual input**: a command line, a field, a first-run step,
+something the visitor puts a cursor in. A magnetic button is the wrong ending
+for a page that spent its whole length being a tool.
+
+**Leans on:** `pin` (the surface holds while state advances), `count` on real
+telemetry, pointer devices where the real product would have them, and `--sc-p`
+driven CSS for anything the kit does not cover. **Bans:** `scrub`, `kinetic`,
+`spotlight`, `drift` past two stops.
+
+**The honesty rule.** taste.md forbids fake dashboards and fake terminals, and
+that rule is not suspended here. The surface has to be real markup running real
+logic on real or clearly-labelled sample data. That labelled-sample escape is
+how a concept product can still use this grammar: every panel is operable
+markup computing its state from data arrays in the page, and the page says on
+its face that the scenario is a demo. What stays banned is the painting of a
+surface, an image or dummy divs posing as something that runs. If the panels
+cannot actually compute, the grammar is unavailable. Pick another.

+
+### 2.4 Continuous world
+
+One canvas, fixed for the entire scroll, and the page travels through it.
+Waypoints, not sections.
+
+> **This grammar REQUIRES worldflight mode.** `data-sc-mode="worldflight"`, one
+> fixed stage, one spacer, legs that crossfade. See references/worldflight.md.
+>
+> Building it out of pinned acts is not a lesser version of this grammar, it is
+> a different and worse page, and it has already been tried. The owner's verdict
+> on the act-based attempt: "awful... you're literally going from scrolling down
+> to static page and then you start scrolling down again... weird clear page
+> lines scrolling up... very cheap looking." Every one of those is the same
+> defect. A pinned act is a block in the document; a document made of blocks has
+> seams; and a world with seams is not a world. Do not reach for `scrub` acts
+> here, however long you make the spans.
+
+**Fits:** a journey with real geography. A supply chain, a process with physical
+stages, a place, a build, anything where "where you are" is meaningful.
+
+**The scroll feels like:** moving through a single space that never cuts. The
+visitor never leaves the frame.
+
+**Forbids:** section boundaries of any kind. No `sc-section` blocks, no acts at
+all, no second stage, no `drift` steps (one continuous grade across the whole
+travel, authored into the world, not interpolated between legs). Nothing may
+scroll *over* the canvas: copy arrives inside it, at waypoints, in the fixed
+copy layer. The only element in document flow is the spacer.
+
+**Nav, hero, close:** the nav is a **map**. A waypoint list, a depth readout, a
+position marker, and it is clickable, because a world you cannot skip around in
+is a video. The hero is an establishing position inside the world, not a
+separate title stage. The close is arrival at a place in the same canvas, and
+the CTA is an object in that place.
+
+**Leans on:** worldflight legs with `data-sc-linger`, copy windows against the
+whole track, the `sc:waypoint` event driving a rail the page draws itself.
+**Bans:** every act device, `flow`, `pan`, hard cuts, `src` swapping.
+
+**This is the expensive one.** The chain warning in SKILL.md applies: a single
+unbroken flight is the most fragile thing you can build, and the seam law in
+worldflight.md section 6 is not optional. Choose this grammar only when the
+brief is literally about travel through a place, and budget for the reroll.
+
+---
+
+### 2.5 Typographic poster
+
+Type is the imagery. Media is minimal or entirely absent, and scale contrast
+does every job that photography would have done.
+
+**Fits:** a brand whose asset is a sentence. Manifestos, agencies with strong
+verbal identity, launches with one claim, anything where a stock-looking image
+would weaken the page rather than support it. Also the right answer when there
+are no good assets and generating them would produce eight plausible, forgettable
+frames.
+
+**The scroll feels like:** words arriving at wildly different weights. A word at
+40vw, then a paragraph at 16px, then silence. Rhythm comes from scale, not
+motion.
+
+**Forbids:** photographic ground, `scrub`, scrims (nothing to scrim), cards of
+any kind, and decorative motion. If a device is doing the work instead of the
+typography, the grammar has already failed.
+
+**Nav, hero, close:** the wordmark is set as part of the composition, at
+composition scale, not as a 14px bar item. There may be no persistent nav at
+all. The hero is a single word or one line at extreme scale, filling the
+viewport, with a real `<h1>` behind it. The close inverts the whole page: the
+smallest type on the site, the CTA as a plain underlined link, quiet after all
+that volume.
+
+**Leans on:** `kinetic` (this is the one grammar where character splitting can
+be right), `pin` with scale driven from `--sc-p`, `reveal` as a wipe across
+letterforms, `drift` doing heavy lifting because the ground is most of the
+frame. **Bans:** `scrub`, `pan` rails of cards, `tilt`, `parallax` on text.
+
+**The typography floor doubles here.** taste.md caps display at ~6rem outside a
+hero moment. This grammar is one continuous hero moment, so the cap lifts, but
+the tracking, measure and optical-correction rules tighten: at 40vw, default
+tracking is a visible defect and one bad kern is the whole page.
+
+---
+
+### 2.6 Gallery / catalog
+
+Objects in a walkable collection. Museum labels, not marketing copy.
+
+**Fits:** a range. Products with variants, a portfolio, a menu, a materials
+library, case studies, anything where the visitor's real question is "what are
+the options" rather than "should I believe you".
+
+**The scroll feels like:** walking a room. Lateral drift with vertical scroll,
+objects entering and leaving at their own pace, each one labelled with fact
+rather than pitch.
+
+**Forbids:** the argument-shaped pinned type act; a single hero claim; scrim
+copy over media; persuasion in the object labels. A label reads
+`Cedar. Air-dried 18 months. Kiln-finished.` and not `Craftsmanship you can
+feel.` Every object gets the same label schema, no exceptions, because the
+schema is what makes it a collection instead of a grid.
+
+**Nav, hero, close:** the nav is an **index of objects**, and it jumps. The hero
+is object one, already in view, already labelled, with no separate title
+treatment: the collection starts at the top of the page. The close is either the
+last object or an inquiry plate typeset exactly like a label, so the ask reads
+as part of the collection.
+
+**Leans on:** `pan` as the spine rather than as one act, `reveal` per object,
+`tilt` on objects the visitor would pick up, `count` for real specs. **Bans:**
+`kinetic` headlines, `spotlight`, `magnet`, more than one `scrub`.
+
+**The rail copy constraint from devices.md §3 becomes structural here**, not a
+caveat. Labels are read cropped for most of their life, so the schema has to
+survive being half-visible.
+
+---
+
+### 2.7 Split stage
+
+Two columns held in tension for the whole page, resolved by scroll.
+
+**Fits:** any argument with two sides. Before and after, cost and saving, manual
+and automated, what you have and what you would have. The comparison is the
+product.
+
+**The scroll feels like:** watching a balance tip. Both halves are always
+present, both move, and the page is going somewhere specific: the moment one
+side wins.
+
+**Forbids:** full-bleed anything before the resolve; centred copy; the
+corner-anchored hero; a symmetric close. Neither column may be decorative, both
+carry real content the whole way down. The instant one side becomes a caption
+for the other, this collapses into a zigzag layout with extra steps.
+
+**Nav, hero, close:** no bar. The **divider is the chrome**, and it carries the
+labels for both sides plus the progress of the argument. The hero establishes
+the split at 50/50 on the first screen, with both headlines readable at once, so
+the visitor understands the format before they scroll. The close is the
+**collapse**: the divider travels to one edge, one column takes the full width,
+and the CTA lives in the winning column. That collapse is the ending, and it
+should be the single most satisfying moment on the page.
+
+**Leans on:** `pin` with divider position driven from `--sc-p`, `reveal` per
+side, `count` for the comparison figures if they are real. **Bans:** `pan`,
+`spotlight`, `magnet`, more than one `scrub`, `drift` (two grounds, one per
+side, and they hold).
+
+---
+
+### 2.8 Rhythmic cutlist
+
+Short hard-cut acts at speed. No pinning, no dwell, no crossfades.
+
+**Fits:** energy brands. Streetwear, sport, events, music, drinks, youth
+products, anything where the visitor should feel a pulse rather than follow an
+argument.
+
+**The scroll feels like:** a cut every second. Twelve to twenty short sections
+rather than six long ones, each one landing whole and gone. Total page length
+stays inside the 8 to 14 viewport-height budget precisely because nothing is
+held.
+
+**Forbids:** any act over ~1.4 viewport-heights; `data-sc-dwell` above 0.1;
+`pin` entirely; overlapping cue windows; slow easing. This grammar is the exact
+inverse of the filmic one-shot: where that one hides its seams, this one is
+made of them.
+
+**Nav, hero, close:** the bar is loud, not minimal. Full-width, high-contrast,
+possibly a marquee, possibly the CTA at the same weight as the wordmark. The
+hero is one screen that cuts to the next in under a viewport, so there is no
+settling shot and no greet-and-hold. The close is abrupt: the last cut is the
+CTA, at full bleed, no spotlight, no drift-down.
+
+**Leans on:** `flow` + `in` at short stagger, `reveal` on nearly every section,
+`count` if the figures are real, hard `drift` steps between adjacent grounds.
+**Bans:** `pin`, `spotlight`, `magnet`, `dwell`, `parallax`.
+
+**The taste floor still applies at speed.** Fast is not an excuse for a
+1.2 second entrance that the reader outruns. Cue windows here are short *and*
+front-loaded, so a section is fully legible within the first third of its own
+span.
+
+**The peak problem, and how to resolve it.** This grammar bans `pin` and `dwell`
+outright while feel.md insists the peak gets the most scroll room and the
+biggest hold. Those pull in opposite directions, and the quiet failure is a
+build that reaches for `pin` at its peak and still calls itself a cutlist.
+
+**Hold in the fixed chrome layer, and keep every act short and unpinned.** The
+loud bar this grammar already asks for is a persistent element that does not
+belong to any act, so it can unfurl, run a long choreography and hold as long as
+the peak needs while the acts underneath keep cutting at full speed. Drive it
+from page scroll rather than from an act's `--sc-p`, since the whole point is
+that it outlives the act it started in. The airfield build's departures board
+runs its entire peak (unfurl, populate, cascade, reveal, hold, collapse) in
+the chrome, with no pinned act anywhere on the page and nothing over 1.3vh.
+
+The general form: **when a grammar bans the device your peak wants, move the
+peak out of the act stack rather than breaking the grammar.** The bans are on
+what the acts do, not on what the page can do.
+
+---
+
+## 3. The signature move
+
+Every build must invent **one bespoke interaction that exists on that site
+alone**. Not in the device kit, not in any prior build, not a parameter change.
+Coded in the page, with `data-sc-*` attributes of your own naming or plain
+inline JS reading `--sc-p`. The engine stays untouched, always.
+
+This is the thing that makes a page memorable after the visitor closes the tab,
+and it is the only part of a build that cannot be arrived at by following rules.
+
+### What counts
+
+- **Scroll-as-playhead over a persistent trace rail.** A thin horizontal trace
+  fixed at the bottom edge, present the whole page, drawing a real waveform or
+  route or timeline. Scroll position is the playhead. Passing an act stamps a
+  marker on the trace that stays. By the footer the trace is a complete record
+  of what the visitor just went through, and it doubles as navigation.
+- **A wordmark the pointer can pull apart.** The letters follow the cursor with
+  different masses, separate under a drag, and settle back into perfect lockup
+  when released. Only on the hero, only once, and the settle has to be exact.
+- **A line drawing that builds itself.** An SVG technical illustration whose
+  `stroke-dashoffset` is driven from `--sc-p`, so scrolling literally draws the
+  object, then the dimension lines arrive, then the callouts. Pairs with the
+  technical-drawing world in worlds.md.
+- **A running receipt.** A small fixed panel that accumulates a line every time
+  the visitor passes a claim, with real numbers, so the close arrives with a
+  totalled ledger of the argument they just read. Only works with real figures,
+  which is the check on it.
+- **One control that regrades the whole page.** A time-of-day handle, a
+  temperature, a load level: one input, and every image, ground and accent on
+  the page shifts together. It has to affect everything at once or it is a
+  widget.
+
+### What does not count
+
+- A recoloured spotlight. A spotlight at a different radius. Two spotlights.
+- `data-sc-tilt="9"` instead of `6`. Any parameter change to any kit device.
+- A different easing curve on kinetic lines.
+- Five cards in the rail instead of three, or the rail scrolling the other way.
+- A third `scrub` act. More of a device is not a new device.
+- Something the engine already does, given a project-specific class name.
+
+The test: **describe the move to someone who has seen the other builds. If they
+cannot tell it apart from something the kit already does, it is not a signature
+move.** Reaching for a kit parameter here is the same failure as reaching for
+the filmic default in §2, one level down.
+
+---
+
+## 4. The fingerprint gate
+
+The registry lives at `<workspace>/FINGERPRINTS.md`, where `<workspace>` is
+whatever `node <skill>/scripts/workspace.mjs` prints. It is per-user and it
+starts empty: the gate is about not repeating **yourself**, so your first build
+has nothing to clear and every build after it does.
+
+A worked twelve-row registry ships as `EXAMPLES.md` in the upstream scroll-craft repository *(upstream repo — not vendored in this port)*. Read it to see what a filled table looks like and which shapes tend
+to collide. It is illustration, not constraint: those are somebody else's
+builds and they do not gate yours.
+
+**Before building:** read it. Every row is a shape that is now taken.
+
+**Before writing markup:** check the planned build against every existing row on
+these six dimensions.
+
+| # | Dimension | What it records |
+|---|---|---|
+| 1 | Grammar | Which of §2, or a named new one |
+| 2 | Nav treatment | What the chrome is and what it is for |
+| 3 | Hero device | What the first screen does |
+| 4 | Act-sequence shape | The device order, act count, total viewport-heights |
+| 5 | Close pattern | How the last screen behaves and what the CTA sits in |
+| 6 | Signature move | The one bespoke interaction, in a phrase |
+
+**The gate: a new build must differ from EVERY existing row on at least 4 of the
+6.** Not 4 of 6 on average across the table. Four against each row, individually.
+
+Dimension 6 is free, because a signature move is unique by definition. So the
+gate really asks for three more out of the remaining five, against each row, and
+a build that changes only grammar and world will fail it.
+
+**If the planned build fails the gate, change the plan, not the log.** Rewriting
+a fingerprint row to make a new build fit is the one thing that makes this file
+worthless. It is a record of what exists, not a description of what you wish
+existed.
+
+**After shipping:** append one row. Fill all six dimensions plus world and port.
+Say plainly what it shares with prior rows, because the shared columns are what
+the next build has to avoid.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Aesthetic range
+
+Premium-minimal is a choice. It is not the costume this skill wears by default,
+and four dark-or-paper pages with one accent each is what happens when nobody
+decides otherwise.
+
+The full range is available when the brand's vibe asks for it:
+
+| Family | Reads as | Earned by |
+|---|---|---|
+| Brutalist | Blunt, structural, unstyled on purpose | Tools, infrastructure, anything anti-marketing |
+| Maximalist | Dense, layered, loud, generous | Culture brands, events, food, anything abundant |
+| Playful | Bouncy, coloured, informal | Kids, games, consumer apps, community |
+| Retro | Specific to a decade, not vaguely nostalgic | Heritage brands, music, anything with a real lineage |
+| Dense | Information-forward, small type, high count | Data products, catalogues, reference, finance |
+| Editorial | Paper, folios, measure, restraint | Long-form substance |
+| Premium-minimal | Quiet, dark, one accent, air | Luxury, and only when asked for |
+
+Go where the interview points. If the human says "loud" and the page comes back
+in charcoal with one accent, the interview was decorative.
+
+**What does not flex:** the taste floor. Spacing scale and rhythm, type metrics
+and measure, contrast ratios measured on the render, motion built from
+`transform` and `opacity`, focus-visible on everything, reduced motion that
+keeps meaning, real copy and real numbers. Every item in taste.md holds in every
+aesthetic family.
+
+A brutalist page still needs 4.5:1 body contrast. A maximalist page still needs a
+spacing scale, and needs it more, because density without rhythm is just noise. A
+playful page still cannot animate `top`. **The floor is what separates a chosen
+aesthetic from a sloppy one**, and it is the reason range is safe to offer at
+all.
+
+Two specific traps stay banned in every family, because they are not aesthetics,
+they are defaults with a look: the cream-and-brass artisan palette
+(taste.md, Colour) and violet-to-blue AI gradients. Both are what a page reaches
+for when nobody chose.

+# Verify
+
+A scroll page cannot be checked by looking at it. It has no single state: every
+scroll position is a different frame, and the failures live between the two you
+happened to look at. So walk it mechanically.
+
+```bash
+cd <build project>
+npm i playwright-core                       # once
+
+node <skill>/scripts/serve.mjs --root . --port 4500 &
+node <skill>/scripts/shoot.mjs --url http://localhost:4500 --out lab/shots
+node <skill>/scripts/shoot.mjs --url http://localhost:4500 --out lab/mobile --width 390 --height 844
+node <skill>/scripts/shoot.mjs --url http://localhost:4500 --out lab/reduced --reduced-motion
+```
+
+Then **read `sheet.png`**. The whole point of shooting contiguously is looking
+at the frames side by side; a folder of PNGs does not get looked at that way.
+
+Two setup facts that will otherwise waste a pass:
+
+- **Serve it.** `file://` blocks the Blob fetch the engine uses for clips, so
+  the page silently falls back to posters and proves nothing.
+- **Real Chrome, not bundled Chromium.** Chromium ships without an h264
+  decoder, so every clip fails to paint and the run "passes" against posters.
+  `shoot.mjs` already resolves installed Chrome; override with
+  `SCROLLCRAFT_CHROME`.
+
+---
+
+## What the harness reports
+
+It samples **within each act** (default 6 positions per act) rather than
+uniformly down the document. Uniform sampling moves every position whenever you
+change any section's height, so findings appear and vanish with unrelated edits.
+
+**DEAD SCROLL**: consecutive positions where nothing changed: no cue moved, no
+clip time advanced, no rail travelled, no wipe progressed, no stage shifted.
+Real dead scroll means the reader is turning the wheel and being given nothing.
+Fix by shortening the act's span or adding a cue.
+
+**Bespoke fixed stages must report their visible state.** A split stage, live
+canvas, or other page-local system can use ordinary `flow` acts only as scroll
+markers while every visible change happens on a fixed layer outside the engine.
+The harness cannot infer that layer's semantics. Put `data-sc-verify-state` on
+the fixed stage and update its value to a compact signature of the values that
+actually paint: divider position, scene opacity, canvas phase, custom film
+time, or similar. The detector then checks those flow spans too.
+
+Do not publish raw scroll progress just to make the check green. If progress is
+changing while the composition is not, that is the exact failure this path is
+meant to catch. Round and publish the rendered values. For an intentional
+resolved hold, set `data-sc-verify-hold="true"` only while the hold is active.
+Reduced-motion fixed stages may use the same attribute for deliberately stable
+frames, which still require manual contact-sheet review.
+
+**FROZEN CLIP**: a scrub stage is on screen, the reader is scrolling, and the
+clip's playhead is not moving. Dead scroll cannot see this, because the stage
+itself *is* moving: a still photograph is sliding up the page, which is the
+worst-looking failure this kit can produce and the one that most reliably makes
+a page feel broken.
+
+The harness samples each scrub act's **entry and exit slides**, not only its
+pinned travel. That gap is why this went undetected for four builds: a pinned
+act's samples were taken at `top + (h - vh) * p`, which never visits the viewport
+of scroll on either side where the stage is visible and the clip is parked. A
+hold on the first or last frame is always reported. A hold in the middle is only
+reported once it outlasts any plausible `data-sc-dwell` settle, since that settle
+is a deliberate effect. The check is skipped under reduced motion, where no clip
+is ever fetched on purpose.
+
+The fix is almost never per-page: the engine maps clip time across the stage's
+whole visible life by default. A page that reports this has usually opted out
+with `data-sc-clip-map="travel"`, or is running an engine copy from before that
+default existed. See [devices.md §1](devices.md).
+
+**CUES THAT NEVER PEAK**: an element that never reaches full opacity anywhere.
+Usually a cue window too narrow for its act, or ramps that eat the whole window.
+Widen the window or set explicit ramps. A kinetic heading is read through its
+line units, not through the element: the engine forces the element itself to
+opacity 1 and carries the real value on `.sc-split__i`, so reading the element
+reports every kinetic headline as fully present even on frames where every line
+is at 0.
+
+**CONTRAST**: measured on the **composited page**, not on the source video. The
+harness hides the text, re-shoots the same frame, and samples the real
+background under each line, so scrims, gradients and blends are all included.
+Elements with their own opaque background are graded against that fill instead.
+
+Three things it gets right that a hand-rolled version usually does not:
+
+- **The direction is picked per line.** Light type on a dark page fails on the
+  brightest patch under it; dark type on a light page fails on the *darkest*
+  one, and grading that against the brightest patch is the most lenient reading
+  available, so a high-key page can report clean over text that is failing. The
+  harness compares the ink to the mean background and grades against whichever
+  extreme is on the ink's own side.
+- **The sampled rect is clamped to the viewport.** The part of a pinned act's
+  copy that has scrolled above the fold is not on screen, so what sits in those
+  pixels is not behind anything the reader can see.
+- **Fixed chrome is hidden with the text.** A fixed bar paints in *front* of
+  what scrolls under it, so its own mark is not the background behind a headline
+  passing beneath it.
+
+This is the check no static audit can do: the frame under a headline changes as
+the clip scrubs, so text can clear 4.5:1 against the poster and fail badly three
+hundred pixels later.
+
+### The scrim has to be a SIBLING of the copy, never a child
+
+The pass hides `[data-sc-cue],[data-sc-cue] *,[data-sc-copy],[data-sc-copy] *`
+before photographing the frame underneath a line. `visibility: hidden` hides an
+element's pseudo-elements too, so a scrim written as `.mycopy::before` is hidden
+along with the text it exists to protect, and the pass grades the line against
+the raw film every time.
+
+The tell is unmistakable once you know it: **you strengthen the scrim and the
+reported numbers do not move at all.** Not "improve slightly", not "move by a
+tenth": byte-identical, because the thing you changed was never in the
+measurement. If a contrast number is unchanged to two decimals after a real
+change, stop tuning and check what is actually being composited.
+
+A very high mean against a very low worst (`1.21:1 (mean 12.83)`) is the same
+finding seen from the other side: the type is fine almost everywhere and there
+is a bright patch under it that nothing is covering.
+
+Two shapes that work:
+
+- `.sc-world__scrim` in the copy layer, which is what worldflight.md ships and
+  which survives the hide because it carries no `data-sc-copy`.
+- One plate per block, mounted as a sibling and driven from the page's own JS.
+  `orrery` sizes each plate off its block's untransformed box (set
+  `transform:'none'`, read the rect, put it back, so the engine's ±2vh copy
+  drift does not skew the measurement) and each frame copies the block's own
+  inline opacity onto its plate, so the plate tracks the engine's window with no
+  duplicated window maths.
+
+### Known limitations of the contrast pass
+
+Real, and worth knowing before you trust a green run:
+
+- **Cues are keyed by their text.** Two cues that share a string, which
+  taste.md's "one label per intent" rule actively encourages, are collapsed into
+  one row, and the reported worst frame is the worse of the two.
+- **Lines under 0.85 opacity are skipped.** A headline parked at 0.6 over a
+  bright frame is never graded, so "contrast clean" can still hide a legibility
+  problem. Look at the sheet for anything that reads washed out.
+
+  **Author the fade-outs to land between sample positions.** The harness samples
+  a fixed number of positions per act, so a ramp-out that happens to straddle one
+  puts a half-faded headline on the sheet: graded by nobody, and read by eye as
+  ghost type over the frame. **Fix the ramp, not the sampling.** Shorten
+  `rampOut` so the cue is at full opacity at one sample and gone by the next,
+  rather than sitting at 0.5 on the sample in between. Widening the sample count
+  only finds more half-faded frames; it does not make the page look better,
+  because a real reader stopping on that pixel sees exactly what the sheet
+  shows. A cue caught mid-fade over a bright frame is a real defect, not a
+  sampling artefact.
+- **The floor is not size-aware.** It reports below 3:1 as a failure and 3:1 to
+  4.5:1 as thin. WCAG allows 3:1 for large text, so a display headline in the
+  thin band is usually fine and a 16px caption in it is not.
+- **Acts with no `[data-sc-cue]` elements are not graded at all.** Copy on plain
+  canvas is a static case, but it is unmeasured.
+- **Ordinary `flow` acts are excluded from dead-scroll checks.** Static flow is
+  normally correct. A bespoke fixed experience built over flow markers must use
+  `data-sc-verify-state`, or the harness will skip its visible timeline and can
+  report a dead opening as healthy.
+- **A `pan` act whose rail does not overflow is reported as healthy.** The
+  `pigment` build ran a rail measuring 1368px inside a 1440px viewport, so it
+  travelled zero for its entire 2.1vh span, and every pass printed `no dead
+  scroll detected`. Measure `rail.scrollWidth - innerWidth` yourself; a green run
+  does not cover it. See devices.md §3.
+
+**Console errors and failed requests**: a 404 on a clip degrades to a poster
+silently, which looks fine and is not.
+
+---
+
+## What the harness cannot tell you
+
+Read the sheet for these. They are the ones that matter most.
+
+- **Whether the composition is any good.** Copy landing on the busiest part of
+  the frame, a subject cropped at an unfortunate point, an act whose end frame
+  is a dark empty corner.
+- **Whether the motion is smooth.** Contiguous frames prove the clip advances;
+  they do not prove it advances evenly. Watch the contact sheet for a move that
+  lurches, reverses, or stalls in the middle.
+- **Whether the page means anything.** Six acts that each work and together say
+  nothing is the most expensive failure available here.
+
+---
+
+## The manual passes
+
+**Reduced motion.** Clips are never fetched, posters hold, copy still cues. The
+page must remain comprehensible, not merely not-crash. This doubles as the
+low-bandwidth check.
+
+Comprehensible includes **reachable**: check that no content was deleted rather
+than merely stilled. A `pan` rail is the case that bites, because zeroing its
+transform parks it on its first screenful. The engine now hands the stage back
+as a native scroll region, so confirm on the sheet that the rail shows real
+content and that items past the fold can still be got to. Nothing in the harness
+reports this; it reads as a page behaving correctly.
+
+**Credit accounting.** `kie.mjs probe` reports a balance, not a delta, so a
+build's spend is a before-and-after subtraction. That subtraction is only valid
+if nothing else is generating against the same key. When builds run in parallel,
+or when a settlement lands late, the deltas overlap and each build will claim
+some of another's spend (three parallel builds each read the same 7597 → 7067 and
+each reported 530). Either serialise generation, or cost the build from the
+per-call model prices in [assets.md](assets.md) against the calls you actually
+made, and treat the probe delta as a ceiling.
+
+**And the per-call sum overstates real spend in the other direction.** Two
+reconciliations against the account ledger, each with no other consumer, put
+actual debits at roughly **0.4x** the documented unit rates: a fleet whose
+per-call sums came to ~1447 credits was debited 530, and a three-build run whose
+per-call sums came to 2252 was debited 856. Both land near the same ratio. So a
+build report should say what the per-call sum is *and* that it is a planning
+ceiling rather than the amount billed. Reporting the sum as the cost is the
+honest default, because it never under-claims; reporting it as *measured* spend
+is wrong. Neither number is the other's substitute: the probe delta bounds a
+parallel run from above, the per-call sum bounds a serial one from above, and
+only a ledger read with a single consumer settles it.
+
+**Mobile.** Pinned stages use `100svh` so the URL bar does not cause a jump.
+Copy reflows and does not collide with the fixed bar. Confirm the phone encodes
+actually load. Check the portrait crop of every clip: a 16:9 move composed
+around left-hand negative space loses exactly that space at 9:16
+(see [assets.md](assets.md)). Mobile is a first-class target, not a check at
+the end: the phone clips are cut portrait, the lerp is retuned for touch, tap
+targets are grown, and every one of those is authored, not inherited.
+
+### The phone is a different machine
+
+Headless Chrome on the build box cannot reproduce an iPhone's video decoder,
+its autoplay policy, Low Power Mode, or touch scrolling. On one build every
+probe reported the hero clip scrubbing perfectly for **four consecutive
+rounds while the real phone showed a frozen frame**. A green harness run says
+the page is correct where the harness runs. It says nothing about iOS video.
+
+What iOS does to a scrub clip, and what the engine now handles for you:
+
+- iOS will not *paint* a muted video that has never been played. Seeks land,
+  `seeked` fires, and the picture stays on one frame. The decoder has to be
+  primed with one `play()`/`pause()`.
+- The engine primes each clip at `loadedmetadata` (a muted inline `play()`
+  needs no gesture outside Low Power Mode) and retries on `touchstart`,
+  `touchend`, `pointerdown`, `click` and `scroll`. `touchend` matters: the
+  HTML spec's activation-triggering events include `touchend` but **not**
+  `touchstart`, so a Low Power Mode phone that rejects the touchstart attempt
+  gets a valid one when the finger lifts.
+- A prime must be re-attemptable per clip. A one-shot prime on first touch
+  loses a race: the reader touches to scroll within the first second, while
+  the hero's megabytes are still downloading, and the shot is spent on a
+  sourceless element. The tell is exactly "the first clip is frozen and every
+  later one works".
+- iOS may leave a `play()` promise pending forever, and may leave `seeking`
+  true forever. Both were permanent silent freezes; the engine now releases
+  the priming flag on a timer and re-issues any seek stuck past 700ms. The
+  reveal also fires on a 2.5s timeout, never only on `seeked`.
+
+Do not re-implement any of that in page JS, and do not strip it when copying
+the engine. If a phone still shows a frozen clip, the cause is past what this
+machine can measure, which is what the next section is for.
+
+### Ship the diagnostic with the site
+
+You get one question per round with a real device, so make the round count.
+`references/device-diag.html` is a standalone page that scrubs the suspect
+clip two ways (blob URL, exactly as the engine loads it, and direct file src)
+beside a known-good clip, prints a MOVING / FROZEN verdict over each pane,
+and reports prime results, seek counts and distinct painted frames. Edit its
+`TESTS` array to point at the build's own clips, deploy it next to the site,
+and one screenshot from the phone isolates the layer: blob loading, the file,
+the device's decode policy, or the engine's lifecycle. Deploy it **with** the
+first mobile fix, not after the fourth.
+
+### Ask what differs before asking what's broken
+
+The debugging lesson that cost three wasted rounds: "desktop works, the phone
+does not" reads as a platform difference and invites platform theories
+(codecs, keyframes, resolution). **"One clip works and another does not, on
+the same device"** cannot be a platform difference. Before theorising, write
+down every way the working case differs from the broken one; the bug lives in
+that list. On the build above the list had one entry: the hero is first, so
+it loads while the first touch is being spent.
+
+**Keyboard.** Tab through. Focus order matches visual order, the focus ring is
+visible against every ground it crosses, and nothing reachable is parked at
+opacity 0. Cues set `pointer-events: none` when faded, but a focusable element
+inside a faded cue is still a trap.
+
+The engine helps here but does not finish the job, and the gap is specific:
+
+- **It handles the ordinary case.** On `focusin`, if the focused element is
+  inside a `[data-sc-act]` and its own cue computes under 0.85, the engine
+  scrolls it to the centre of the viewport with `behavior: 'instant'`
+  (`smooth` would animate a multi-screen glide with focus off screen the whole
+  way). On a `flow` act, centring the element also opens its cue, because the
+  element's viewport position and the act's progress move together.
+- **It does not fix a pinned act, and cannot with this approach.** A pinned
+  stage is `position: sticky`, so the control holds *one* viewport position for
+  the entire act. Centring it is then only achievable by scrolling backwards out
+  of the act, which parks progress at 0 and leaves the cue dark. Measured: a CTA
+  cued at 0.75 on a 3vh pinned act sits at viewport y=70 from progress 0 to
+  0.875; `scrollIntoView({block:'center'})` from inside the act lands *before*
+  the act's top, at progress 0, cue opacity 0. The control is on screen and
+  still invisible.
+
+**On a pinned act, park the act at the progress where the focused element's own
+cue is open.** That is page-local work, because only the page knows which cue
+belongs to which control, and because act progress runs through `dwell()` when
+the act has any, so the scroll target is not a straight inverse of the cue
+window. The descent build does exactly this. If a pinned act carries a focusable
+control, write that handler and assert it; do not assume the engine covered you.
+
+**Fresh eyes.** Look again later. Timing you tuned for twenty minutes reads
+differently when you have forgotten what it is supposed to do.
+
+---
+
+## Failures worth knowing about
+
+Each of these shipped once during this skill's own build, and each looked fine
+until it was measured.
+
+| Symptom | Cause |
+|---|---|
+| A hero headline wrapped to six lines | `max-width` in `ch` on a **container**: `ch` resolves against the container's font-size, not the display size of the heading inside it |
+| Centred copy hanging off the left edge | `inset-inline` declared **after** `left: 50%`; the shorthand resets `left` to auto |
+| An act that never pins, silently | An author rule setting `position` on the stage. The engine now warns in the console |
+| A stray headline painted over a later section | Cues frozen at their last value when their act scrolled out of range |
+| A clip stuck on its poster at the top of its act | The reveal waits for a `seeked` event, and a clip already at time 0 never seeks |
+| A closing CTA that fades out before the page ends | A two-value cue on the last act, plus a tall section after it |
+| Copied headings reading "even whenbreakfast" | Line-split spans abutting with no whitespace between them |
+| A headline from act 2 overlapping act 3, failing contrast on the way | A one-value hold cue on a middle act. Only the last act may hold |
+| A phone-only contrast failure on a trail-anchored act | The trail scrim aimed at the corner the copy leaves below 860px. The engine now switches it to a band |
+| A rail act that shows one frozen screenful under reduced motion | `[data-sc-pan] { transform: none }` deleting the navigation. The engine now falls back to a scroll region |
+| Two washed-out video acts no scrim tuning could rescue | Flat supplied footage with no white point. Grade the intermediate, not the CSS |
+| A blank stage for the first viewport of a pinned act | A two-value first cue with no ground. Ground or greet |
+| A rail heading dragged off-screen under reduced motion | The scroll-region fallback snap-centres a single wide track; keep the act heading outside the region, or give the rail multiple snap stops |
+| Keyboard focus landing on a control nobody can see | The browser's scroll-into-view parks the element barely on screen, which is where its cue has not opened, and the opacity check still passes. **The engine now centres it on `focusin`** when the element is inside a `[data-sc-act]` and its cue is under 0.85. That fixes the off-screen half. See the note below for what it does not fix |
+| A figure or drop numeral rendering as a plain bar | `data-sc-reveal` on type with `line-height` below 1. `clip-path` is relative to the border box, so the wipe eats the ascender and descender. See devices.md §4 |
+| An image three times too tall, pushing its own label off the fold | `width` overridden in CSS while `height` still resolves to the HTML attribute. Override both or neither. See taste.md |
+| An inverted section rendering its old ink, graded in the wrong direction | `--sc-ink` redefined on the subtree without restating `color`. See taste.md |
+| A ground colour arriving a section late | `drift` on a page of short acts; several are part-way through at once. Paint grounds per section. See devices.md §10 |
+| Every cue and reveal in a quiet act snapping 0 to 1 | A pinned act at `data-sc-span` ≤ 1, which is one pixel of travel. Minimum useful pinned span is ~1.2 |
+| A clip that scrubs beautifully, stops, and then slides up the page as a still photograph | The clip was mapped to the act's pinned travel, which is 0 through the entire entry slide and 1 through the entire exit slide. The engine now maps clip time across the stage's whole visible life by default. See devices.md §1 |
+| A custom fixed stage passing while its first screens do nothing | The page used `flow` markers, which are intentionally excluded from ordinary dead-scroll checks, but published no `data-sc-verify-state`. Report the actual rendered state and declare only genuine resolved holds |
+| The hero clip frozen on a real iPhone, later clips fine, every probe green | iOS never paints an unplayed muted video, and the one-shot gesture prime was spent while the hero was still downloading. The engine now primes per clip at `loadedmetadata` and retries on every gesture, including `touchend` |
+| A phone clip soft and stuttering while the same file is smooth on desktop | A landscape mobile encode in a portrait viewport: cover-fit decoded the full frame and threw three quarters of it away. Cut the phone clips portrait from the masters (see assets.md) |
+| Four rounds of mobile fixes verified green, phone still broken | Headless Chrome cannot reproduce the iOS decoder, Low Power Mode, or touch. Deploy `references/device-diag.html` beside the site on the first mobile report and let the phone answer |
+
+The first three are invisible to every check except looking at rendered output.
+That is the argument for this whole pass.
+
+Operational note: a `shoot.mjs` run can take the background server process down
+with it when it finishes. Check the port before the next pass and restart
+`serve.mjs` if it dropped.
+
+
+## The harness will photograph the wrong site without telling you
+
+`serve.mjs` fails with `EADDRINUSE` if something already holds the port. When
+that server was started in the background, the failure is in a log nobody is
+reading, and `shoot.mjs` then gets a perfectly good `200` from **whatever else
+is on that port**. It walks that page, finds its worldflight, and writes a full
+contact sheet and a clean report for a site you did not build.
+
+Confirm the port is serving YOUR build before trusting any run:
+
+```bash
+curl -s http://localhost:45XX | grep -o "<title>.*</title>"
+curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}
+" http://localhost:45XX/assets/leg01.mp4
+```
+
+A 404 on an asset you know exists is the fastest tell.

+# Worldflight: the continuous-world page mode
+
+Act mode cuts the page into pinned blocks. That is the right shape for a page of
+chapters and the wrong shape for one unbroken camera move, and building a
+continuous world out of acts produces exactly the page an owner described as
+"awful": you scroll down, the stage unsticks, a static page slides past, clean
+horizontal edges travel up the screen, and then you start scrolling down again.
+Every one of those defects is the same defect. A pinned act is a block in the
+document, and a document made of blocks has seams.
+
+Worldflight removes the seams by removing the blocks.
+
+There is **one** `position: fixed` stage for the whole page. Every leg of the
+flight is mounted in it at once and stays mounted. The only element in document
+flow is an empty spacer. Scroll drives two things and nothing else: the film
+timeline and the opacity of the overlay. Nothing travels, nothing pins, nothing
+unpins, and there is no boundary anywhere for a seam to show at.
+
+---
+
+## 1. The markup
+
+```html
+<div data-sc-mode="worldflight" data-sc-seam="0.12">
+
+  <div data-sc-world>
+    <div data-sc-segment data-sc-w="0.95" data-sc-linger="0.3"
+         data-sc-waypoint="Surface">
+      <img class="sc-world__poster" src="assets/p1.webp" alt="" decoding="async">
+      <video data-sc-src="assets/leg1.mp4"
+             data-sc-src-mobile="assets/leg1-m.mp4"></video>
+    </div>
+    <div data-sc-segment data-sc-w="0.9" data-sc-linger="0.42"

+    </div>
+    <!-- legs in flight order, as many as the world has -->
+  </div>
+
+  <div data-sc-world-copy>

+    <div class="sc-copy sc-copy--lead" data-sc-copy data-sc-window="finale"> … </div>
+  </div>
+
+  <div data-sc-spacer aria-hidden="true"></div>
+</div>
+```
+
+`ScrollCraft.mount(document)` as usual. The mode composes with nothing else on
+the page: a worldflight page has no acts.
+
+### Attributes
+
+| Attribute | On | Default | What it does |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `data-sc-mode="worldflight"` | mode root | n/a | Turns the page into one flight. |
+| `data-sc-seam` | mode root | `0.12` | Crossfade band, in viewport-heights of scroll. Clamped 0.02 to 0.4. |
+| `data-sc-world` | stage | n/a | The single fixed stage. Gets `.sc-world`. |
+| `data-sc-segment` | leg | n/a | One leg. Holds a poster and a clip. |
+| `data-sc-w` | leg | `1.3` | Scroll this leg owns, in viewport-heights. |
+| `data-sc-linger` | leg | `0` | Dwell remap for this leg only. Clamped to 0.6. |
+| `data-sc-waypoint` | leg | n/a | Label published on the waypoint event. |
+| `data-sc-world-copy` | copy layer | n/a | Fixed overlay. Gets `.sc-world__copy`. |
+| `data-sc-copy` | copy block | n/a | A windowed block of type. |
+| `data-sc-window` | copy block | n/a | `hero` \| `finale` \| `from to [in [out]]`. |
+| `data-sc-spacer` | spacer | n/a | The scroll track. Engine sets its height. |
+| `data-sc-lerp` | root or `<video>` | `0.18` | Playhead smoothing. See devices.md. |
+
+The engine generates no DOM here, the same as in act mode. It sets the spacer's
+height, and it writes opacity, visibility and z-index on the legs. Everything
+else is markup you wrote.
+
+---
+
+## 2. The scroll track
+
+The spacer's height is **(sum of the leg weights + 1) viewport-heights**, set in
+pixels so it and the stage are measured on the same ruler (the stage is sized in
+`svh`, and on a phone `vh` and `svh` are different numbers).
+
+The `+ 1` is not padding. Without it the track ends at the exact scroll position
+where the last leg reaches progress 1, so the final second of the last clip is a
+place the reader can never come to rest. One extra viewport gives the last
+flight room to land.
+
+Position along the track, `t`, is measured in viewport-heights, which is the
+same unit the weights are written in. Leg *i* owns `[c_i, c_i + w_i)`, and its
+local progress is `(t - c_i) / w_i`, remapped through `lingerEase`.
+
+---
+
+## 3. The seam
+
+Two things make a boundary between clips invisible, and both are required.
+
+**The assets have to match at the seam** (section 6). The engine cannot fix a
+mismatched cut.
+
+**The crossfade has to be one-sided.** Over the seam band the incoming leg fades
+up from 0 to 1 while the outgoing leg holds at full strength underneath it, and
+the outgoing leg only drops to zero once it is completely covered. Fading both
+sides at once puts the page ground through the middle of every seam, which reads
+as a flash, and it is the obvious implementation. z-index favours the current
+leg (120) over the rest (100 + opacity × 10).
+
+Each side of the band is half a seam width, so each leg holds its seam frame for
+about 0.06vh of scroll. Those are exactly the frames the seam law matched, so a
+held frame there is invisible by construction.
+
+Nothing ever swaps a `src`. A src swap is a black frame, and a black frame is
+the cut this mode exists to remove.
+
+---
+
+## 4. The copy contract
+
+Copy lives in one fixed layer above the stage. Each block declares a window
+against the **whole track**, not against a leg.
+
+- `data-sc-window="hero"`: present from the first pixel, fades out by 0.62 of
+  the first leg. A hero that fades IN has to fade in over an empty first screen,
+  which is the one moment on the page with nothing else to look at.
+- `data-sc-window="finale"`: fades in from 0.4 of the last leg and holds to the
+  end.
+- `data-sc-window="0.38 0.66"`: a plateau window across those track fractions:
+  ramps in over the first 30%, holds at full opacity, ramps out over the last
+  30%. Add a third and fourth number to set the ramps yourself. The plateau is
+  not decoration: a pure triangle touches opacity 1 for one instant, so the
+  reader has to stop on exactly the right pixel to see the line at full strength
+  and every heading reads slightly faded.
+
+**The only transform on the copy side is `translateY`, and it is capped at 4vh
+across the whole window** (from +2vh to -2vh). Anything larger stops reading as
+a layer over a moving world and starts reading as a second page scrolling at a
+different speed, which is the cheapness this mode replaces. Pointer events are
+handed back to a block only above opacity 0.5.
+
+`.sc-world__scrim` is provided for a scrim div on the copy side. Shape it to
+where the copy actually sits. The stock `.sc-scrim--band` tops out at 58% of the
+frame, and footage that stays bright past that will fail the contrast pass even
+though the page looks fine.
+
+---
+
+## 5. The route rail
+
+The engine publishes the current leg index as `--sc-seg` and its local progress
+as `--sc-segp`, on the mode root and on `:root`, and fires a `sc:waypoint`
+CustomEvent (bubbling, `detail: { index, count, label, el, progress }`) whenever
+the leg changes.
+
+It renders no rail. A gauge, a map, a depth readout, a leg counter and a set of
+chapter dots are all the same two numbers, and a runtime that ships one of them
+ships it to every page that uses this mode. Build the rail in the page:
+
+```js
+addEventListener('sc:waypoint', (e) => {
+  document.querySelectorAll('.rail__leg').forEach((el) => {
+    el.setAttribute('aria-current', String(+el.dataset.leg === e.detail.index));
+  });
+});
+```
+
+---
+
+## 6. The seam law for assets
+
+A worldflight is only as good as the joins between its clips. Two architectures
+work; nothing else does.
+
+**Architecture A (preferred): chain on start images only.** Each leg is
+generated from a start image and left to end wherever it ends. The next leg's
+start image is a frame pulled from the previous leg's **encoded** mp4. Never
+force an end-image wide shot: an image-to-image model asked to hit both ends
+resolves the conflict by pulling the camera back, and every leg ends up as the
+same wide establishing shot.
+
+**Architecture B: connector legs.** Where two existing clips have to meet, cut a
+short connector whose start frame comes from the previous leg and whose end
+frame is the next leg's actual first frame.
+
+Extract from the ENCODED mp4, not the source render. The encode changes the
+pixels, and a poster or a chain frame taken from the pre-encode master does not
+match the frame the browser will actually decode:
+
+```bash
+# last frame of the previous leg, as the next leg's start image
+ffmpeg -sseof -0.15 -i legN.mp4 -frames:v 1 -q:v 2 chainN.png
+# first frame of a leg, for its poster
+ffmpeg -i legN.mp4 -frames:v 1 -q:v 3 pN.webp
+```
+
+### Encoding
+
+Same rules as any scrub clip, and they matter more here because a worldflight
+has more of them mounted at once.
+
+- **GOP 8 desktop, GOP 4 mobile.** Scrubbing is random access; a long GOP means
+  every seek decodes a run of frames and the playhead lags behind the hand.
+- Ship `data-sc-src-mobile` for every leg. The engine picks it on coarse
+  pointers and narrow viewports.
+- Posters as WebP, extracted as above.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Loading
+
+A leg is fetched only while the reader is within **±1.6vh** of it. Loading the
+whole flight up front is tens of megabytes before the first frame paints;
+loading on arrival means arriving at a poster.
+
+Until a leg's first real frame has painted, its poster carries the move with a
+push-in (`scale(1.03 + local × 0.14)`). A still that sits perfectly still while
+the page scrolls announces itself as a placeholder; a slow push reads as the
+camera already flying.
+
+Under reduced motion **no clip is ever fetched**. The posters are the film, they
+cross-dissolve through exactly the same seams at exactly the same scroll
+positions, the same copy windows open and close, and every transform is dropped.
+The whole story still reads.
+
+---
+
+## 7b. The spacer is sized once, at mount
+
+`layout()` writes the spacer height as `(total + 1) * innerHeight`. If
+`innerHeight` reports 0 at that moment the spacer is set to **0px**, the page
+has no scroll track, and the flight never advances.
+
+It fails silently and it looks like success. The engine mounted, every leg
+registered, the clips fetched and decoded, `sc-has-clip` is on the segments, and
+there is nothing in the console. The page is simply a still image that cannot be
+scrolled. Embedded preview panes and some early loads do exactly this.
+
+Do not fix it in the engine. One resize makes it re-measure correctly, so send
+one from the page once the window and the fonts have settled:
+
+```js
+function relayout() { dispatchEvent(new Event('resize')); }
+addEventListener('load', relayout);
+if (document.fonts && document.fonts.ready) document.fonts.ready.then(relayout);
+```
+
+The `fonts.ready` half earns its place independently: a webfont swapping in
+changes the measured height of every copy block, and anything the page sized
+against those blocks (a scrim plate, a rail) is wrong until it re-measures.
+
+Check it with one line, and check it before blaming anything else:
+
+```js
+document.documentElement.scrollHeight   // must be ~(sum of weights + 1) * innerHeight
+```
+
+## 7c. Pace: one speed, and slower than you think
+
+Two separate faults get described as "it doesn't feel smooth", and only one of
+them is smoothing.
+
+**Inconsistent pace is the worse one.** Leg weight divided by clip length is how
+fast the world moves under the reader's hand. If that number varies from leg to
+leg, the world surges and drags for no reason the reader can see, and it reads
+as a fault in the page rather than as pacing. Give every leg with the same clip
+length the **same weight**, and give a longer clip a proportional one. On
+`orrery` that number varied by 36% across ten legs on the first cut, and the
+owner's word for it was "not smooth". Evened to a 6% spread, the same footage
+reads as one continuous move.
+
+```
+rate = weight / clip_seconds        // hold this within a few percent everywhere
+```
+
+**Then slow it down.** The instinct is to spend as little scroll as possible. A
+fly-through wants the opposite: the reader is steering a camera, and a camera
+that answers too eagerly feels twitchy. **0.21 to 0.22vh per second of film is a
+good floor for a world you fly through.** 0.14 to 0.19, which is what the per-8s
+line yields, is noticeably fast.
+
+That line is a **dead-scroll guardrail, not a taste ceiling.** Exceeding it is
+fine and often correct; exceeding it without checking is not. The harness
+defines dead scroll mechanically and will tell you. At 0.216vh/s a 0.12vh sample
+gap still advances the clip by half a second, nowhere near dead.
+
+**Damp the playhead and widen the joins.** `data-sc-lerp` defaults to 0.18;
+**0.12 is the better default for a worldflight**, because a flight has more legs
+mounted and more seams than an act page, and the extra damping is what actually
+removes wheel-event judder. Widen `data-sc-seam` from 0.12 to ~0.16 for the same
+reason: a longer crossfade band gives each join more room to disappear in.
+
+Changing weights moves every leg boundary, so **every `data-sc-window` has to be
+recomputed** against the new track and then re-checked on screen. A copy window
+is tuned to a frame of film, not to a number.
+
+## 8. Hard rules
+
+| Rule | Why |
+|---|---|
+| **Nothing in document flow but the spacer.** | The moment a real block scrolls past the fixed stage, the page has a seam and the mode is pointless. If you want a section, you want act mode. |
+| **Copy translate ≤ 4vh across a window.** | Larger reads as a second page scrolling at a different speed. |
+| **The lerp is never disabled** except under reduced motion. | A 1:1 playhead reproduces every gap in the wheel event stream as a stutter. |
+| **One pace for the whole flight**, and slower than feels necessary. | Weight divided by clip length must match across legs, or the world surges and drags. ~1.5vh per 8s is the dead-scroll guardrail, not the target. See section 7c. |
+| **Every clip stays mounted. Never swap a `src`.** | A src swap is a black frame. |
+| **Seam frames come from the encoded mp4.** | The encode changes the pixels. |
+| **One accent, one scrim shape, copy anchored off the bright centre.** | Verified by the contrast pass, which grades copy blocks exactly like cues, at the worst frame each line is ever shown on. |
+
+---
+
+## 9. Verifying
+
+`shoot.mjs` detects `[data-sc-mode="worldflight"]` and switches modes. It samples
+across the spacer track at the same density it samples acts, plus four extra
+positions across every seam, and it waits for the lerp to settle before each
+shot (a screenshot taken mid-lerp is a frame the page never actually holds, and
+it makes the run unrepeatable).
+
+It reports:
+
+- **dead scroll**, defined here as no leg advancing its `currentTime`, no
+  crossfade progress, and no copy-window opacity change between two samples more
+  than 0.12vh apart. Skipped under reduced motion, where each leg legitimately
+  holds one still frame.
+- **legs that never reach full opacity**: a weight or a seam that is wrong: the
+  reader is shown a permanent dissolve and never the leg itself.
+- **legs stuck on poster**: a clip that never loaded or never decoded. It passes
+  every other check, because a poster looks exactly like a paused film.
+- **contrast** on visible copy blocks, through the same direction-aware
+  compositing path as cues.
+
+```bash
+node scripts/serve.mjs --root builds/<name> --port 45XX
+node scripts/shoot.mjs --url http://localhost:45XX --out lab/<name>-shots --per-act 8
+node scripts/shoot.mjs --url http://localhost:45XX --out lab/<name>-reduced --reduced-motion
+```
+
+The mechanical assertions ship with the skill as
+`scripts/worldflight-assert.mjs` and run against **any** worldflight page, not a
+special rig: spacer height, fixed stage, nothing in document flow, lerp
+convergence and non-overshoot, seam monotonicity, the copy transform cap, and
+the reduced-motion contract.
+
+```bash
+node <skill>/scripts/worldflight-assert.mjs --url http://localhost:45XX
+```
+
+Run it against your own build before the contact sheet. It answers "does the
+mode actually hold" in a way a screenshot cannot.

+# Worlds
+
+The art direction the whole page lives inside. Pick one, write it as a **style
+preamble**, and paste that preamble verbatim at the top of every image and video
+prompt. Reusing it word for word is what makes eight separately generated assets
+look like one shoot. Paraphrasing it is what makes them look like eight prompts.
+
+---
+
+## The default is photographic
+
+Soft matte low-poly clay diorama, isometric miniature, tilt-shift toy world:
+**banned as a default.** It is the house style of AI scroll sites, it announces
+that nothing on the page is real, and for any brand selling an actual product it
+actively works against the sale. A clay render of a can does not make anyone
+thirsty.
+
+Use an illustrated world only when the brand is genuinely illustrated: a
+children's product, a game, a brand whose existing identity is drawn. Then
+commit to it properly, matched to the brand's real illustration style, not to
+the generic diorama look.
+
+---
+
+## The eight
+
+Each is a starting preamble. Tune the light, lens and grade to the brand; keep
+the structure.
+
+### 1. Low-key cinematic: the default
+Dark, controlled, one light source. Works for almost anything premium: spirits,
+coffee, tools, apparel, software, professional services.
+
+> Cinematic product photography shot on 35mm anamorphic lenses. Shallow depth of
+> field, high dynamic range, true blacks, matte film grain. Low-key lighting:
+> one warm key, cool ambient fill, deep falloff into shadow. Colour grade of deep
+> charcoal, warm amber highlights, desaturated mid-tones. Photographic realism.
+> NOT 3D render, NOT clay, NOT illustration, NOT CGI, no digital glow, no plastic
+> sheen.
+
+### 2. High-key editorial
+Bright, airy, shadowless. Wellness, skincare, home goods, healthcare, fintech
+that wants to feel calm.
+
+> Editorial still-life photography on a seamless bone-white cyclorama. Large soft
+> overhead source, huge white bounce, near-shadowless with one soft contact
+> shadow. High key, gentle contrast, colour grade of warm white and pale
+> neutrals. Medium-format sharpness, fine grain. Photographic realism, no CGI.
+
+### 3. Natural documentary
+Real people, real places, available light. Service businesses, trades,
+restaurants, anything where trust comes from "these are actual humans."
+
+> Documentary photography, available light only, handheld 35mm. Natural skin
+> tones, honest imperfect surfaces, slight motion in the frame. Muted realistic
+> grade, no colour cast, visible grain. Candid, unposed, nobody looking at
+> camera. Absolutely not stock-photo styling, no fake smiles, no CGI.
+
+### 4. Hard-light graphic
+Direct sun, saturated ground, sharp shadows as composition. Streetwear, energy
+drinks, sports, youth brands.
+
+> Studio product photography with a single hard undiffused source. Crisp
+> high-contrast shadows used as graphic shapes. Saturated seamless colour
+> backdrop. Punchy contrast, slight halation on specular highlights. Shot on
+> digital medium format, sharp throughout. Photographic, not rendered.
+
+### 5. Macro texture
+Closer than the eye gets. Food, drink, materials, ingredients, craft.
+
+> Extreme macro photography, 100mm macro lens at high magnification. Razor-thin
+> plane of focus, everything else falling to soft black. Backlit so edges glow.
+> Visible surface texture, condensation, grain of the material. Near-black
+> negative space. Photographic realism, no CGI, no illustration.
+
+### 6. Architectural
+Space, scale, geometry, almost no people. Real estate, agencies, manufacturing,
+B2B infrastructure.
+
+> Architectural photography, tilt-shift corrected verticals, wide 24mm. Vast
+> negative space, strong linear geometry, raking daylight through structure.
+> Cool neutral grade with one warm accent. Long exposure stillness. Photographic,
+> no render, no CGI.
+
+### 7. Nocturne
+Night, practical lights, wet surfaces, reflection. Nightlife, automotive,
+gaming, security, anything with edge.
+
+> Night photography, practical light sources only: neon, sodium, screen glow.
+> Wet reflective surfaces doubling every light. Deep blue-black shadows, warm
+> point highlights, heavy atmosphere. Anamorphic flare, visible grain.
+> Photographic, cinematic, not rendered.
+
+### 8. Technical drawing
+The one non-photographic world that reads as premium rather than cheap, because
+it is honest about being a diagram. Engineering, hardware, complex services.
+
+> Precise technical illustration in the style of a patent drawing or exploded
+> assembly diagram. Fine consistent line weight, no fills, monochrome ink on
+> warm paper ground, dimension lines and leader callouts. Orthographic
+> projection. Restrained, engineered, no shading, no gradients, no 3D render.
+
+---
+
+## Writing your own
+
+Every preamble names five things. Miss one and the set drifts.
+
+1. **Medium and lens**: "35mm anamorphic", "100mm macro", "handheld 35mm".
+   This is what sets depth of field and perspective.
+2. **Light**: count the sources and place them. "One warm key, cool ambient
+   fill" is directable. "Beautiful lighting" is not.
+3. **Grade**: the colour story in three words. "Deep charcoal, warm amber,
+   desaturated mid-tones."
+4. **Texture**: grain, halation, condensation, imperfection. This is what makes
+   an image read as photographed rather than generated. Skipping it is the
+   single biggest cause of the plastic AI look.
+5. **The negative list**: what it must not be. "NOT 3D render, NOT clay, NOT
+   illustration, no digital glow, no plastic sheen." Models drift toward
+   rendered-looking output; the negative list is what holds them.
+
+---
+
+## If the canvas is light
+
+Every worked example above is dark, and a high-key build inverts four things at
+once. Getting them wrong costs a full iteration:
+
+1. **The scrim washes toward the canvas, it does not darken.** Over footage on a
+   paper ground the density has to go *up*, not down, or the type has nothing to
+   sit on.
+2. **The type over media stays ink.** Light text on a light page over a bright
+   frame is unrecoverable.
+3. **`--sc-edge` is an ink-tinted inset highlight** tuned for a near-black
+   ground. On paper it reads as dirt along the top lip. Invert it to white, or
+   drop it and carry the raise with a hairline.
+4. **The `--sc-e1/2/3` shadow alphas are tuned for a near-black ground** too.
+   Halve them and re-tint `--sc-shadow-color` toward the canvas hue.
+
+The contrast direction flips with all of this: dark type fails on the *darkest*
+patch under it, not the brightest. The harness picks the direction per line, so
+it grades a high-key page correctly (see [verify.md](verify.md)).
+
+---
+
+## Composition, per shot
+
+The preamble sets the world. Each shot prompt then names the subject, the frame,
+and **where the empty space is**.
+
+**Name the empty space in every scene prompt, not only in the preamble.** This
+is a requirement, not advice. It is the single highest-leverage line in a prompt:
+seven stills across three aspect ratios came back on-grade and cohesive with zero
+rerolls on the build that did it every time. Copy sits on these images, so
+composition has to leave room for it:
+
+- "large empty shadowed space across the upper left of the frame"
+- "the subject low and to the right, negative space above"
+- "centred with even empty space on both sides"
+
+Generate the space, do not crop for it later. And never ask for text in the
+image: markup is selectable, translatable, sharp at every density, and editable
+after the fact.
+
+---
+
+## Cohesion checks
+
+Lay every generated asset side by side and look for:
+
+- **One light direction** across the set, or a deliberate reason it changes.
+- **One grade.** If one image is cooler than the rest, reroll it rather than
+  correcting it in CSS; a filter over a full-bleed image flattens it.
+- **One level of realism.** A photoreal hero followed by a rendered-looking
+  product shot is worse than either style used consistently.
+- **The brand object identical everywhere.** Pass the real packaging, logo or
+  product shot as `--ref` on every prompt that includes it. A label that drifts
+  between shots is the thing a client notices first.

+# Fingerprints
+
+Every site you build with **scrollcraft** gets one row here, appended after it
+ships. The registry exists so your next build can prove it is a different page
+rather than a re-skin of one you already made.
+
+This file is **yours**. It starts empty on purpose: the gate is about not
+repeating *yourself*, so it has nothing to say until you have built something.
+
+The rules and the gate live in the skill's
+`references/uniqueness.md`. Short version:
+
+**A new build must differ from EVERY row below on at least 4 of the 6
+dimensions.** Four against each row individually, not four on average across the
+table. If a planned build fails, change the plan. Never edit a row to make room
+for it.
+
+The six dimensions are: **grammar**, **nav treatment**, **hero device**,
+**act-sequence shape**, **close pattern**, **signature move**.
+
+Dimension 6 is free, because a signature move is unique by definition. So the
+gate really asks for three more out of the remaining five, and a build that
+changes only grammar and world will fail it.
+
+---
+
+## The registry
+
+| Build | Grammar | Nav treatment | Hero device | Act-sequence shape | Close pattern | Signature move | World | Port |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+
+*(empty: your first build has nothing to clear, so build whatever the interview
+points at. From the second onwards, this table is the constraint.)*
+
+---
+
+## What is taken
+
+Add a bullet here whenever a build claims something a later build should avoid
+reusing: a grammar, a nav treatment, a close pattern, a signature move, an
+act-count-and-length band. The shared columns are what the next build inherits
+as a constraint, so writing them down is the whole point.
+
+Nothing is taken yet.
+
+---
+
+## Appending a row
+
+After shipping, add one line to the table and one bullet to **What is taken** if
+the build claimed something new. Fill every column. Say what the build shares
+with existing rows.
+
+Rows are append-only. A build that has been superseded stays in the table,
+because the space it occupies is still occupied.
+
+---
+
+## Worked example
+
+The skill's author kept a registry of twelve builds across eight page grammars.
+If you want to see what a filled-in table looks like, and which shapes tend to
+collide, read `EXAMPLES.md` in the upstream scroll-craft repository *(upstream repo — not vendored in this port)*. Treat it as
+illustration only: those rows are somebody else's builds and they do **not**
+constrain yours.

For maps and prefixes, host-level *replaces* the root value as a whole (not merge), so a host can intentionally own its identity universe or wipe it with `userPeerAliases: {}` / `runtimePeerPrefix: ""`.

 Pick **[e]** at the prompt to set the three keys directly instead of going through the tree.
 
+**Interactive mapping — `hermes honcho peers map`.** The setup tree covers the common shapes; `hermes honcho peers map` is the full identity view for a gateway with many users and agents. It joins two sources: the workspace's peers fetched from the Honcho API (labeled from local config — your peer, each profile's AI peer, alias targets, runtime peers of seen accounts, `user-*` fallback peers, honestly `unrecognized` otherwise), and the gateway accounts recorded in the local session store (platform, runtime ID, name, and what each currently resolves to, with `✓` when that peer already exists and `○ new` when it would be created on first message).
+
+Mapping targets are picked from the workspace list (`p3`) rather than typed, so a typo cannot silently create a fresh peer; typing a name stays available for the deliberate new-peer case, and `-` clears an alias. Every assignment states its consequence: aliases move future messages only, and a runtime peer left behind keeps its history. `p<N>` alone peeks at a peer's card. `w` lists every workspace the key can reach — the wrong-workspace fallback when the peers shown aren't yours — and lets you browse one and, on explicit confirmation, repoint the profile's `workspace` at it. For a standalone workspace browser beyond mapping, [honcho-cli](https://pypi.org/project/honcho-cli/) is an optional companion (`uv tool install honcho-cli`).
+
+With multiple profiles: saving a root-cascading map asks whether the edit applies to all profiles (root) or forks this profile's host block; a root write with profiles on other workspaces warns that picked peers may not exist there; and the accounts table marks siblings that resolve the same account to a different peer (`≠ dreamer→bob`). Offline, the command degrades to typed targets over the local account list. `hermes honcho peers` without `map` stays a read-only view.
+
 **Un-pinning (single → per-user).** Flipping `pinUserPeer` from `true` to `false` does not migrate data. Memory accumulated under `peerName` while pinned stays there; runtime users now resolve to fresh, empty peers. To preserve your own continuity, choose the **pooled** path — alias your runtime IDs back to `peerName` so your turns keep landing on the pooled history while other users get their own peers. The wizard offers this steer automatically when it detects you're un-pinning a previously pinned profile.

-"""List the test files that carry a platforms() gate for a given platform.
+"""List the test files that carry a given OS marker.
 
-Used by the marked-OS lane of ``.github/workflows/tests-os.yml`` to scope
-what the macOS/Windows lanes import: ``-m platforms`` filters AFTER
-collection, and collection imports every test module under ``tests/``, so
-narrowing the imported paths keeps each lane's failure signal about its
-own tests instead of failing on ~900 unrelated imports.
+Used by ``.github/workflows/tests-os.yml`` to scope what the macOS and
+Windows lanes import.
 
-This script only decides which files are IMPORTED, never which tests run
-(``-m platforms`` plus the conftest's per-test host skips stay
-authoritative). Over-selection is harmless — the skips drop the extras —
-so whenever a file's gating cannot be evaluated statically (non-literal
-spec, unknown leaf) OR the file itself cannot be read or parsed, the file
-is conservatively listed; the lane, not this selector, then reports the
-problem. UNDER-selection, which silently drops coverage, is the failure
-mode this tool exists to prevent.
+Why scope at all, when ``pytest -m macos_only`` already selects correctly?
+Because ``-m`` filters AFTER collection, and collection IMPORTS every test
+module under ``tests/``. On the Linux lane that is fine (it runs them all
+anyway), but on the macOS/Windows lanes it would drag ~900 unrelated modules
+through import on a host they were never expected to import on — one
+unrelated ImportError would fail a job whose actual subject passed. Narrowing
+the paths keeps each lane's failure signal about its own tests.
 
-Spec recognition is AST-based over the conftest gate's vocabulary:
-decorator and module-level ``pytestmark`` forms, quoted string specs,
-negation (``"not macos"``), the grouping specs (``"posix"`` = linux+macos
-hosts, ``"any"`` = all), and ``arch=``/``arch_negate=`` keyword filters.
-A file is listed for platform P when any spec could run a test on a P
-host.
+``-m`` is still passed by the workflow and remains the authoritative
+selector: this script only decides which files get imported, never which
+tests run. Over-selecting here is harmless (``-m`` drops the extras); the
+failure mode to care about is UNDER-selecting, which is why the workflow
+fails the job when zero tests end up selected.
 
 Usage:
-    python scripts/ci/list_os_marked_tests.py macos [tests_root]
+    python scripts/ci/list_os_marked_tests.py macos_only [tests_root]
 
-Prints one path per line (POSIX separators, repo-relative), sorted. Exits
-non-zero when no file matches — a renamed spec or broken selection would
-otherwise report a green lane that ran nothing.

+Python-only (the Python CI lane has no Node): Pydantic's ``model_json_schema()`` output is walked
+by a deliberately small JSON-Schema-subset renderer — object/properties/required, primitives,
+enum, const, anyOf-with-null, array/items, ``$ref``, oneOf + discriminator, additionalProperties.
+Anything else raises at generation time so an unsupported model is fixed at the model, never
+worked around in the output. Prettier runs on the TS when a node_modules binary is present
+(output is already in the repo's prettier style; the Python CI lane regenerates and diffs it).

 # Canonical test runner for hermes-agent. Run this instead of calling
 # `pytest` directly to guarantee your local run matches CI behavior.
 #
-# One runner on every host: per-file subprocess isolation via
-# scripts/run_tests_parallel.py — each test FILE runs in its own
-# freshly-spawned `python -m pytest <file>` process. The spawn floor is
-# ~15ms on POSIX; on Windows it is ~0.5-1.5s per file (a real cost,
-# ~a 6-minute floor over the full suite, paid for the state isolation
-# below). There is no cross-file state pollution and each file is
-# collected exactly once (pytest's per-item fixture-closure machinery —
-# tens of millions of dict walks over ~42k items against the conftest's
-# autouse fixtures — is paid once, not once per worker; measured 37-65s
-# of pure collection that a persistent-worker model multiplies by the
-# worker count).
-#
-# Both paths enforce the same hermetic environment: TZ=UTC, LANG=C.UTF-8,
-# PYTHONHASHSEED=0, `env -i` scrubbing (credential vars can't leak), and
-# proper venv activation (probes .venv, venv, then ~/.hermes/...).
+# What this script enforces:
+#   * Per-file isolation via scripts/run_tests_parallel.py — each test
+#     file runs in its own freshly-spawned `python -m pytest <file>`
+#     subprocess. No xdist, no shared workers, no module-level leakage
+#     between files.
+#   * TZ=UTC, LANG=C.UTF-8, PYTHONHASHSEED=0 (deterministic)
+#   * Env vars blanked (conftest.py also does this, but this
+#     is belt-and-suspenders for anyone running pytest outside our
+#     conftest path — e.g. on a single file)
+#   * Proper venv activation (probes .venv, venv, then ~/.hermes/...)
 #
 # Usage:
 #   scripts/run_tests.sh                            # full suite
-#   scripts/run_tests.sh -j 4                       # cap workers/parallelism
+#   scripts/run_tests.sh -j 4                       # cap parallelism
 #   scripts/run_tests.sh tests/agent/               # discover only here

+# are forwarded to each per-file pytest invocation automatically — no '--'

-When the empty-response ladder is fully exhausted (prefill continuation,
-empty-content retries, provider fallback) and the model produced structured
-reasoning but no visible text, the DELIVERED final_response is a clearly
-labeled reasoning excerpt instead of a bare "(empty)" — the reasoning often
-contains the actual answer. Idea credit: PR #48795 (@ligl0325).
+A clean-stop response (``finish_reason == "stop"``) with no ordinary content but
+structured reasoning IS the answer: the reasoning is promoted to the visible reply and
+persisted as assistant content without entering the empty-response recovery ladder
+(every rung re-bills the full prompt). Idea credit: PR #48795 (@ligl0325).
 
 Invariants pinned here:
-- The persisted assistant message keeps the "(empty)" sentinel and the
-  ``_empty_terminal_sentinel`` marker (replay semantics unchanged).
-- Raw reasoning is NEVER promoted earlier in the ladder — a reasoning-only
-  response still goes through prefill continuation first.
-- A truly empty exhaustion (no reasoning either) still returns "(empty)".
+- Clean-stop reasoning-only → returned and persisted after ONE API call.
+- ``finish_reason == "length"`` reasoning is unfinished: never promoted, the
+  continuation path still owns it.
+- A truly empty response (no reasoning either) still reaches the ladder terminal.

+"""Registry walk for the injected-parameter strip-and-retry safety class.
+
+Bug class (#90257, #89897, #91164, #89503): a parameter that Hermes (or the
+provider's own gateway) injects into a request — ``prompt_cache_retention``,
+reasoning translations, ``temperature``/``max_tokens``/``response_format``
+adjustments — draws an HTTP 400 from the provider and the turn DIES instead
+of stripping the parameter (or retrying the identical request when the field
+was never ours) and completing.
+
+Two request paths are pinned, each driving the REAL recovery code with only
+the HTTP boundary faked (a client that 400s once, then succeeds):
+
+* Classifier path (main conversation loop): ``classify_api_error`` +
+  ``_SERVER_INJECTED_PARAM_SENDERS`` (fixed in PR #91643). The registry is
+  walked at collection time, so adding a new injected param automatically
+  extends coverage. The retry contract mirrors conversation_loop: retryable
+  → resend identical request; non-retryable → abort.
+* Auxiliary path: ``agent.auxiliary_client.call_llm``'s reactive strip-and-
+  retry rungs for every parameter that path knows how to strip.
+
+Guard: a 400 naming a param NOT in the registry must still fail — we never
+blindly strip arbitrary params, because that would convert our own request
+bug into a friendly lie (error-classifier policy, AGENTS.md).

-"""Shared fixtures for CLI tests.

-prompt_toolkit / capsys isolation
----------------------------------
-``cli._cprint`` renders through ``prompt_toolkit.print_formatted_text``,
-which — when called with no explicit ``output=`` — lazily creates an
-``Output`` from ``sys.stdout`` **and caches it on the process-global default
-``AppSession``** (``prompt_toolkit.application.current._current_app_session``,
-a ``ContextVar`` with a module-level default). The cache is keyed to nothing
-and never re-reads ``sys.stdout``.
-
-Under pytest, ``capsys`` swaps ``sys.stdout`` for a fresh buffer per test.
-So the first CLI test that emits through ``_cprint`` (e.g. one exercising
-``/queue``, which prints a "Queued: …" line) locks prompt_toolkit's cached
-output onto *its* captured stdout. Every later ``capsys`` test that asserts
-on ``_cprint`` output then reads an empty buffer, because the render went to
-the first test's now-dead capture target. That is the mechanism behind the
-order-dependent ``test_resume_quiet_stderr`` failure: it passes in isolation
-and in its own file, but fails in a full ``tests/cli`` run.
-
-Reset the cached output before every CLI test so each one re-creates a fresh
-prompt_toolkit ``Output`` bound to its own ``sys.stdout`` on first use. This
-is a no-op when prompt_toolkit isn't importable and cheap otherwise (the
-property re-creates lazily).

+"""Profile-isolation write tripwire: no cross-profile writes to the default home.
+
+Invariant under test
+--------------------
+When a non-default profile is active (``HERMES_HOME`` points at
+``<root>/profiles/testprof``), NO subsystem write may land anywhere under the
+default profile's tree — ``<root>/state.db``, ``<root>/config.yaml``,
+``<root>/memories/``, ``<root>/cron/``, or any other path directly under
+``<root>`` outside the ``profiles/`` subtree.
+
+This is a recurring bug *class*, not a single bug.  Recent regressions:
+
+* #88532 — gateway sessions physically stored in the root ``state.db`` even
+  though the profile scope was active (rows carried the right profile_name,
+  so the only symptom was the desktop listing them under the default bot).
+* #92662 / #89190 — settings and API keys saved while a profile was active
+  were written to the base profile's ``config.yaml`` / ``.env``.
+* #89625 — cron listing/writing the default profile's jobs.json because the
+  store paths were frozen at import time.
+* #92156 — terminal env cache leaked across profiles (same import-time-
+  snapshot shape of bug).
+
+Each test here exercises a REAL persistence surface through its real code
+path (no mocks of the subject) with the ``testprof`` profile active, then
+walks the entire default-profile tree and fails if anything was created,
+modified, or deleted there.  The walk is deliberately whole-tree rather than
+per-known-file so the *next* variant of this bug class (a new subsystem, a
+new sidecar file) trips it too.
+
+Reusability
+-----------
+``ProfileTripwire`` and the ``profile_tripwire`` fixture are module-level and
+documented so future surfaces (terminal env cache, skills, plugins, logs …)
+can add one small exercise function + a ``pytest.param`` to ``SURFACES``.

+"""Contract pin: cron <-> persistent-memory loading.
+
+This contract FLIPPED TWICE in August 2026 and must never flip silently again:
+
+  * #91269 reported "cron loads MEMORY.md even though skip_memory is on".
+  * PR #91384 flipped cron to ``skip_memory=True`` and denylisted the
+    ``memory`` toolset ("do not load MEMORY.md into scheduled jobs").
+  * PR #91447 flipped it BACK: "cron jobs now load and update persistent
+    memory like every other agent" — ``skip_memory=False`` at the scheduler's
+    AIAgent construction site, ``memory`` removed from the cron denylist,
+    and ``agent/agent_init.py`` clarified that ``skip_memory`` skips the
+    *external memory provider* path (built-in MEMORY.md/USER.md store follows
+    the normal ``not skip_memory or memory-toolset-requested`` rule).
+
+CURRENT INTENDED MATRIX (as of PR #91447, pinned here):
+
+  default cron job          -> skip_memory=False; MEMORY.md/USER.md load into
+                               the system prompt; ``memory`` toolset follows
+                               normal resolution (NOT policy-denied).
+  per-job enabled_toolsets  -> naming ``memory`` keeps it; skip_memory stays
+                               False.
+  config.yaml
+  agent.disabled_toolsets:
+    [memory]                -> the ONLY off-switch: ``memory`` lands in the
+                               cron agent's disabled_toolsets (tool denied,
+                               and agent_init treats a denylisted toolset as
+                               not-requested). skip_memory itself is NOT a
+                               per-job/config toggle — the scheduler always
+                               passes False.
+
+ANY future flip of this behavior MUST consciously edit this test and cite
+the issue/PR that decided the flip in the module docstring above, extending
+the flip history. Do not "fix" a failure here by inverting an assertion
+without that citation.
+
+Tests drive the REAL ``cron.scheduler.run_job`` path and capture the actual
+kwargs the scheduler passes to AIAgent (patched at ``run_agent.AIAgent``,
+matching tests/cron/test_scheduler.py's pattern). The ON direction (default
+skip_memory=False, memory not denylisted, per-job memory toolset kept) is
+already pinned by tests/cron/test_scheduler.py::test_run_job_*memory*; this
+module pins the OFF direction and the "no per-job knob" rule.

+reading between the truncate and the write saw an empty file and raised

+starting a fresh webhook agent session.

+- The referenced job is fired via ``execute_job_for_event`` with the

+- The normal webhook agent session is NOT started (``handle_message``
+  never called)
+- HTTP returns 202 Accepted immediately
+- Startup validation rejects routes that set both ``cron_job`` and

+# ``Output`` from ``sys.stdout`` **and caches it on the process-global default

+#
+# Under pytest, ``capsys`` swaps ``sys.stdout`` for a fresh buffer per test.
+# So the first CLI test that emits through ``_cprint`` (e.g. one exercising
+# ``/queue``, which prints a "Queued: …" line) locks prompt_toolkit's cached
+# output onto *its* captured stdout. Every later ``capsys`` test that asserts
+# on ``_cprint`` output then reads an empty buffer, because the render went to
+# the first test's now-dead capture target. That is the mechanism behind the
+# order-dependent ``test_resume_quiet_stderr`` failure: it passes in isolation
+# and in its own file, but fails in a full ``tests/cli`` run.

-    an unmocked ``find_gateway_pids`` on a box with a live gateway reaches the
-    conftest live-system guard and turns into a spurious ``sys.exit(1)``.
-    Discovery returning nothing makes the phase a clean no-op for every test

+    * Process environment is IRRELEVANT — runtime bridges legitimately set

+      suppresses the warning (fix commit a93f1b2be removed suppression).
+    * Commented-out or empty-valued .env entries do NOT warn.

+"""Truthfulness invariants for the update pipeline at the RECEIPT layer.
+
+Bug class ("update reports success while reality disagrees" — #88654,
+#88848, #91378, #91439, #91962, #92780, #92902): the updater's word must be
+backed by evidence. This suite pins the honesty contract of the receipt
+subsystem with REAL module functions against a temp HERMES_HOME — it is not
+a fleet E2E (that lives in the CI install/update harness).
+
+Invariants pinned, and WHERE each is enforced:
+
+1. RECEIPT ALWAYS FINALIZED — ``begin → steps → finalize`` writes a
+   parseable receipt for success/failed/refused (#91283 made every
+   post-begin run leave a record). A begun-but-never-finalized run
+   (simulated crash) writes NOTHING to disk, so the reader the Desktop
+   uses (``read_latest_receipt``, surfaced via
+   ``/api/hermes/update/receipt`` — #92780) can never interpret a crash
+   as success. The HTTP-layer gating of an ``outcome == "running"``
+   receipt is already pinned in test_update_receipt_endpoint.py and is
+   deliberately not duplicated here.
+
+2. SUCCESS IMPLIES ACCOUNTING — #92902 made the pre-update plan the
+   restart worklist. The final refuse-success decision is INLINE in
+   ``_cmd_update_impl`` (update_cmd.py ~8331-8373, a 8.5k-line flow), so
+   the deepest extractable real functions are pinned instead:
+   ``match_runtime_outcomes`` (plan-vs-bookkeeping reconciliation) and
+   ``report_unaccounted_runtimes`` (the escalation decision). The
+   command's outcome selection is exactly
+   ``"partial" if incomplete else "success"`` (update_cmd.py ~8360); the
+   tests drive that expression with the real decision function's return
+   value, so sabotaging the enforcement (making it accept a missed
+   runtime) fails these tests.
+
+3. REFUSAL IS NOT FAILURE — #91439: an exit-2 preflight refusal must
+   produce a receipt distinguishable from a failed update, and the
+   reader must report it as ``refused``.
+
+Only paths/env are monkeypatched; every receipt is produced by the real
+``hermes_cli.update_receipt`` / ``hermes_cli.update_inventory`` API.

+"""Conformance suite: state.db maintenance must be guard-aware and copy-honest.
+
+Pins the bug CLASS behind #91839 (FTS rebuild corrupting a shared state.db),
+#90806 (WAL sidecars replaced under live holders), #90613 (_safe_copy_db
+copying a corrupt DB while reporting success) and #88235 (repair ran surgery
+under a live writer — repair-specific guard tests already exist in
+tests/hermes_state/test_state_db_repair_live_writer_guard.py and are NOT
+duplicated here).
+
+Contract, in two sentences:
+
+1. No maintenance entry point that does structural work on state.db may run
+   unguarded against a database another live connection still holds — each
+   must refuse loudly, degrade to a no-op, or coordinate safely, and the
+   database must be ``PRAGMA integrity_check == ok`` afterwards.
+2. Any copy/snapshot path must fail closed on a source SQLite cannot read
+   (no destination left behind, DB flagged in the snapshot manifest);
+   success + unusable copy is the #90613 bug.
+
+All databases are real SQLite files under tmp_path (the production-DB
+isolation guard in hermes_state hard-fails on production-shaped paths — never
+point these tests at a real profile).  Corruption is real byte damage, not
+mocks.

+*AI* peer (``aiPeer``): when several AI peers share one workspace + peerName +
+gateway chat key, the ``gateway_session_key`` branch of

+"""Guard: Hermes-owned subprocesses must not resolve managed runtimes by bare PATH.
+
+Hermes installs runtimes for itself — ``uv`` at ``$HERMES_HOME/bin/uv``, Node at
+``$HERMES_HOME/node``. Neither directory is on the ambient PATH of an arbitrary
+process, so ``shutil.which("uv")`` / ``shutil.which("node")`` in Hermes's own
+code has two failure modes:
+
+* the managed runtime is invisible, so the caller reports "not installed" or
+  degrades to a slower tier on a machine that has exactly what it needed; and
+* when a system copy also exists, the one Hermes does not own wins — which is
+  how a generated systemd unit or launchd plist can bake a system Node in and
+  keep resolving it across reboots.
+
+The fix per call site is one of ``find_node_executable()``,
+``iter_hermes_node_dirs()``, ``resolve_uv()``, or ``ensure_uv()``. This test is
+the ratchet that stops a new bare lookup from being added back.
+
+Reading source is normally banned (see AGENTS.md). It is the right tool here and
+only here: the property under test is "no call site anywhere in the tree spells
+it this way", which is a statement about the whole codebase rather than about
+one function's behavior, and there is no runtime seam that can observe a lookup
+that was never written. Every entry in the allow-list below names a call site
+whose behavior is separately covered by a real test.

+
+  One bot = ONE canonical forever-chat = (profile, session titled exactly
+  "Bot Chat"). SessionDB title uniqueness (compare-and-swap in
+  ``_set_session_title``, ValueError on conflict) makes that pair a registry

+  → empty result / None, and creation is an explicit, separate,
+  adopt-before-mint path (desktop plugin.js). No stored session-id pointer
+  exists anywhere in the resolution path.
+
+What is pinned here is the Python layer the desktop relies on. The desktop
+click/create flow itself (plugin.js), and group ROOM member-session lifecycle
+(#90005's original surface), live in Electron JS and are covered by
+apps/desktop/src/plugins/hermes-bots/canonical-chat-registry.test.ts; here we pin the DB/RPC algebra

-"""Regression: leaked approval callbacks must not poison later tests.
+"""computer_use approval is the shared ``tools.approval`` gate — no private grant store, no default-allow.
 
-``tools.computer_use.tool._approval_callback`` and the per-session unlock
-stores are module-globals. Without the autouse reset fixture in
-``tests/conftest.py``, a test that installs a callback and "forgets" it
-changes the behavior of every later computer-use test in the process:
-a raising callback becomes ``verdict = "deny"`` (dispatch tests see an
-empty backend call list), a blocking callback hangs the run. The pair
-below simulates the forgetful test and asserts the next test still sees
-default-allow behavior.
+Two contracts:
+
+* With nobody able to answer (no interactive CLI, no gateway, yolo off) a destructive action is REFUSED and
+  never reaches the backend; under yolo it runs. Historically the tool default-allowed whenever no CLI callback
+  was wired, which made every headless host (cron, api_server, tui_gateway, gateway turns) run desktop input
+  ungated.
+* A grant answered through computer_use lives in ``tools.approval``'s store under computer_use's own scope key,
+  so ``is_approved`` sees it and ``clear_session`` retires it like any terminal pattern.
+
+A leaked callback still poisons later tests (a raising one becomes deny, a blocking one hangs), so the autouse
+reset in ``tests/conftest.py`` stays and the polluter/observer pair below keeps proving it.

+A named-profile backend serving RPCs about a different profile (desktop app-global remote

+"""Doc-fact contract: slash-commands.md must match the command registry.
+
+Parse the real surface and cross-check the published doc in both directions.
+This class of drift has bitten before: ``/loop`` shipped with a feature page
+(user-guide/features/loops.md) but never got a row in the slash-commands
+reference, and the zh-Hans doc carried retired ``/credits``/``/billing`` rows
+for months (PR #69639).
+
+Two directions, both driven by ``hermes_cli.commands.COMMAND_REGISTRY``
+(the single source every surface derives from):
+
+1. Every registered command must be documented under at least one visible
+   form — its canonical name or any declared alias. (IronClaw rule: "any
+   visible alias form counts".) This keeps new CommandDefs from shipping
+   undocumented.
+2. Every command token that appears as a table row in the doc must resolve
+   to a registered name or alias. This keeps retired commands from
+   lingering in the doc after they leave the registry.
+
+Only the English doc is gated: i18n copies lag by design and are synced
+in dedicated passes.

+Backends call :func:`ensure(feature)` on first import; missing packages are installed into the
+active venv (or the durable target) unless ``security.allow_lazy_installs: false``, in which
+case :class:`FeatureUnavailable` carries a remediation hint. Security model: venv-scoped
+(never system Python); durable-target mode (``HERMES_LAZY_INSTALL_TARGET``, sealed images)
+APPENDS the target to ``sys.path`` so core site-packages wins every collision and a lazy
+package can only add modules, never shadow core; PyPI-by-name specs only (``_spec_is_safe``);
+``ensure`` accepts only the :data:`LAZY_DEPS` allowlist; failures surface pip's stderr, no retry.

+"""Answer a bounded set of blocking terminal queries from PTY subprocesses.

+Programs running inside a background PTY session (``terminal(background=true,

+status reports (``ESC[5n``), window-size queries (``ESC[18t``), cursor
+position reports (``ESC[6n``), or DEC private-mode queries
+(``ESC[?<mode>$p``). A real terminal emulator answers these on stdin; Hermes'
+PTY has no emulator on the master side, so the subprocess either blocks
+forever waiting for a reply or the raw query bytes leak into the captured
+output as garbage.
+
+This module ports openai/codex#41436 (``terminal_queries.rs``): a tiny
+byte-level state machine that scans PTY output for the handled queries,
+strips them from the output stream (queries split across read chunks
+included), and produces the bounded responses to write back to the
+subprocess. Everything else — colors, other escape sequences, partial
+UTF-8 — passes through untouched.

 ## Transport
 
-Newline-delimited JSON-RPC over stdio: requests from Ink, events from Python. `tui_gateway/server.py`
+Newline-delimited JSON-RPC over stdio, peer-to-peer: client→server method calls, server→client
+**requests** (the agent asking the user something: `approval`, `clarify`, `sudo`, `secret`, `vault.*`,
+`mcp.setup`, the desktop read/act bridges) and server→client `event` notifications. `tui_gateway/server.py`
 is the facade with the method/event catalog; methods live in `methods_*.py` siblings (`methods_config`,
 `methods_complete`, `methods_browser`, `methods_bot_relay`, ...), event publishing in
-`event_publisher.py` / `event_replay.py`. Desktop reaches the same server over WebSocket via
-`apps/shared` (`JsonRpcGatewayClient`). New RPC = a new `methods_<topic>.py` or an entry in an
-existing topical sibling, registered in the table — no `if method == ...` chain (root shape rules).
+`event_publisher.py` / `event_replay.py`, server→client requests in `server_requests.py` (`send()` blocks
+the agent thread until the response frame with the same `srq-<n>` id arrives; `cancel*` withdraws with a
+`request.cancel` event; `open_requests(sid)` is what `session.resume` / `session.events.since` replay so a
+reconnecting client re-renders the still-open questions). Desktop reaches the same server over WebSocket
+via `apps/shared` (`JsonRpcGatewayClient`, `onRequest`). New RPC = a new `methods_<topic>.py` or an entry
+in an existing topical sibling, registered in the table — no `if method == ...` chain (root shape rules).
+
+**The wire is declared in Python and generated for TypeScript** (`tui_gateway/contracts/`). Every method
+has a `Params` + `Result` model, every server→client request a `Params` + `Result`, every event a
+`Payload` — one Pydantic class each, `extra="forbid"` by default (`OpenModel` for producer-owned dicts).
+`register_method` refuses an undeclared name at import; the dispatcher rejects unknown param keys
+(`4000` + key path) and, under `HERMES_TEST_ISOLATION=1`, raises `ContractViolation` when a handler's
+result or an emitted payload does not match its model (production only logs). `apps/shared/src/
+gateway-contract.generated.ts` (`RpcMethods`, `ServerRequestMap`, `BackendGatewayEventMap` + every value
+shape) and `gateway-contract.openrpc.json` are rendered by `scripts/gen_gateway_contracts.py`;
+`tests/tui_gateway/contracts/test_generated.py` fails when they are stale, so the loop is: change the model →
+regenerate → `tsc` shows every consumer the field moved. `apps/shared/src/gateway-events.ts` only adds
+the client-local synthetic events and the `GatewayEvent` envelope on top.
+New question for the user = `_ask("<method>", sid, params, timeout)` in the emitter, a handler in
+`apps/desktop/.../gateway-event/server-requests.ts` and `ui-tui/src/app/createServerRequestHandler.ts`,
+and a `server_request(...)` in `contracts/server_requests.py`.
+New event = `event("<type>", Payload)` in `contracts/events.py`; the emitter is checked against it.

+- Closed sets are ``StrEnum`` (rendered as literal unions); discriminators are ``Literal``.

+"""Notification payloads: every ``event`` frame the gateway emits (``params.payload``).
+
+One ``Payload`` model per event name, registered with ``event(...)``; ``request.cancel`` lives in
+``server_requests.py`` next to the requests it withdraws. Each model's docstring names the Python
+emitter it was typed from — that emitter is the source of truth, the hand-written TS in
+``apps/shared/src/gateway-events.ts`` was only the map. Fields the emitter always sets are required;
+anything conditional is ``X | None = None``.
+
+A handful of payloads stay ``extra="allow"`` on purpose: their closed shape is owned by another
+module (the skin engine, the pet store, the goal/loop/heartbeat state files, the free-tier bootstrap
+record) or they are watcher signals whose payload is ``{}`` today and may grow. Everything else is
+closed, so a drifted emitter fails the suite (``registry.check_payload`` raises under

+"""Server→client JSON-RPC requests: the backend asks the renderer a question and waits for the
+response frame carrying the same ``id``.
+
+JSON-RPC is peer-to-peer; this is the backend's half. Every "ask the renderer" bridge (clarify,
+approval, sudo, secret, vault prompts, desktop GUI reads, MCP setup consent, the tour) is one
+:func:`send` (blocking) or :func:`send_async` (queue-backed approvals) and one response frame from
+the client — no paired ``*.request`` notification / ``*.respond`` method, no per-kind ``*.expire``.
+
+Ids are ``srq-<12 hex>``: strings never collide with client-minted integer ids, and the random
+part keeps a compute-host child's requests distinct from the parent's when both reach one socket.
+A request that times out or is cancelled (interrupt, session close, shutdown) emits ONE
+``request.cancel {id, method, reason}`` notification so every renderer tears the card down the
+same way. A response for an id that is no longer open is dropped — the wait already returned.
+
+Reconnect: unanswered requests are returned as ``open_requests`` by ``session.resume`` /
+``session.activate`` / ``session.events.since`` (:func:`open_requests`); the shared TypeScript
+channel re-delivers them as if they had just arrived, so the notification replay ring never
+has to carry "a question still waiting for an answer".
+
+Batch clarify keeps per-question locks (``clarify.lock`` → :func:`lock_answer`): answers stay
+editable until every question is locked, locked answers survive a timeout, and the last lock
+resolves the request with the full answer set.

-- `approval.request`: allow once, allow for session, allow always, or deny
-- `clarify.request`: pick from choices or type a custom answer
-- `sudo.request`: masked password entry
-- `secret.request`: masked value entry for a named env var
+- `approval`: allow once, allow for session, allow always, or deny → `{ choice }`
+- `clarify`: pick from choices or type a custom answer → `{ answer }` (batch: `{ answers }`)
+- `sudo`: masked password entry → `{ value }`
+- `secret`: masked value entry for a named env var → `{ value }`
 - `session.list`: used by `SessionPicker` for `/resume`
 
+A withdrawn question (timeout, interrupt) arrives as a `request.cancel` event carrying its id.

 Most users set up a platform by dropping env vars into `~/.hermes/.env` rather than editing `config.yaml`. The `env_enablement_fn` hook lets your plugin pick those env vars up **before** the adapter is constructed, so `hermes gateway status`, `get_connected_platforms()`, and cron delivery see the correct state without instantiating the platform SDK.
 
+Read env through `gateway.platforms._shared.get_scoped_secret` — never `os.getenv`. Under `gateway.multiplex_profiles` the process env holds the DEFAULT profile's values; a secondary profile's `.env` exists only in its secret scope, and a raw read would enable your platform for the wrong profile with the wrong credentials. `seed_extra_from_env` builds the seed dict from a `(ENV_VAR, extra_key, conv)` table through that reader.

+
+### Server→client requests (questions the agent asks you)
+
+Approvals, clarify questions, sudo/secret prompts, vault unlock, MCP setup and the desktop read/act bridges are **JSON-RPC requests from the gateway to the client**, not events. The frame carries a string id, and the client answers with a normal JSON-RPC response bearing the same id:
+
+```
+← {"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":"srq-7","method":"approval","params":{"session_id":"…","request_id":"…","command":"rm -rf build","description":"…"}}
+→ {"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":"srq-7","result":{"choice":"once"}}
+```
+
+Methods: `approval` → `{choice}`; `clarify` → `{answer}` (single) or `{answers}` / `{}` cancel (batch, with `clarify.lock` to lock one answer early); `sudo`, `secret`, `vault.code`, `vault.unlock` → `{value}`; `mcp.setup` → `{result}`; `terminal.read`, `window.read`, `preview.act`, `tour` → `{value}` (JSON text). Respond with a JSON-RPC error (`-32601`) for a method your host does not implement so the agent fails fast instead of waiting out the timeout.
+
+When the gateway withdraws a question (timeout, interrupt, answered from another surface) it emits `request.cancel` `{ id, method, reason }`; clear only the matching prompt. `session.resume` / `session.activate` results and `session.events.since` carry `open_requests` — the still-open frames — so a reconnecting client re-renders (and can still answer) them.

@@ -142,6 +142,20 @@ For an admitted source checkout, `hermes update` runs these phases:
 7. **Gateway auto-restart** — running gateways are refreshed after the update completes so the new code takes effect immediately. Service-managed gateways (systemd on Linux, launchd on macOS) are restarted through the service manager. Manual gateways are relaunched automatically when Hermes can map the running PID back to a profile. Manually-launched `hermes serve` / `hermes dashboard` backends (for example a network-bound serve powering a remote Desktop) are handled the same way: each backend records its bind address in the install's spawn ledger at startup, so the update stops it before the code swap and relaunches it afterward on the **same host and port** — a remote Desktop pointed at that endpoint reconnects instead of stranding. Backends owned by a running Desktop app are left to the app's own respawn.
 8. **Multiplex migration (multi-profile installs)** — once the fleet is verified on the new code, an install with two or more profiles that still run **one gateway per profile** is folded into a single multiplexed default gateway when nothing blocks it (same as `hermes gateway migrate --multiplex --yes`); if a blocker exists (a bot token shared by two profiles, a secondary profile binding a port with no `/p/<profile>/` ingress) the update prints the blockers with their fixes and changes nothing. Single-profile installs are never touched. See [Migrating from per-profile gateways](../user-guide/multi-profile-gateways.md#migrating-from-per-profile-gateways).
 
+### Why the gateway restart can take a while
+
+The restart is drain-first: the running gateway refuses new turns, then waits for in-flight work (chat turns, cron jobs, API runs) to finish before exiting, capped by `agent.restart_after_turn_timeout` (30 minutes by default) so a long-running job is never cut off mid-run. While that wait is in progress the updater prints, every 30 seconds, what the gateway is still holding for — for example:
+
+```
+  → hermes-gateway: draining (up to 1875s)...
+  ⏳ still draining — 1560s left before the forced restart
+     waiting on 1 active work unit(s):
+       • cron job 6ba19dab68df (nightly-scout) in external worker pid 573597, running 6m40s
+     finish or kill the work above to release the drain now; agent.restart_after_turn_timeout in config.yaml caps this wait
+```
+
+Chat turns show their session key, model and current tool; cron jobs show the job id, name and the process running them (an external restart-safe worker on systemd installs, otherwise the gateway itself). `hermes gateway status` lists the same units while the gateway is draining. To stop waiting, finish or kill the listed work, or lower `agent.restart_after_turn_timeout` in `config.yaml` (`0` enters the forced drain immediately).
+
 ### Missing Windows updater files
 
 If the maintained updater script is missing (for example after antivirus quarantine), the legacy update forwarder fails instead of reporting a successful hand-off. Repair the installation and review the security software's quarantine report before retrying; do not disable antivirus protection. Before reporting success, the maintained updater checks the CLI import, Windows executable header, ASAR header and packaged main entry, readable renderer HTML with a local module entry, initial module files, and current build stamp. These are minimum artifact checks, not a full dependency audit or an application/backend launch test. Missing Python is reported before waiting for Desktop shutdown; dependency repair is still allowed to run as part of the update. Electron checks maintained handoff prerequisites before stopping backends when that layout is present; genuine legacy-flat updater layouts remain supported, so not every missing updater file is detected before backend shutdown.

Default: unstaged changes plus untracked files. `staged` shows what's staged for commit, `all` everything since HEAD, and `session` the cumulative diff of everything Hermes changed here (from the earliest retained checkpoint baseline — requires checkpoints to be enabled; complements `/rollback diff <N>`). `--stat` prints just the changed-file summary; path arguments restrict the diff. |
 | `/snapshot [create\|restore <id>\|prune]` (alias: `/snap`) | Create or restore state snapshots of Hermes config/state. `create [label]` saves a snapshot, `restore <id>` reverts to it, `prune [N]` removes old snapshots, or list all with no args. Database restores write through SQLite's backup API so live processes (gateway, dashboard) see the restored data safely; if that path fails while another process still holds the database open, the restore refuses instead of risking corruption — stop the holder and retry. |

+| `/queue <prompt>` (alias: `/q`) | Queue a prompt for the next turn (doesn't interrupt the current agent response). In the CLI, `/queue` with no arguments lists the pending queue, and `/queue list`, `/queue edit N <new prompt>`, `/queue rm N`, `/queue move A B`, and `/queue clear` inspect and manage queued prompts before they are sent. Prompts that begin with a management word can be force-queued with `/queue add <prompt>`. |
 | `/steer <prompt>` | Inject a mid-run note that arrives at the agent **after the next tool call** — no interrupt, no new user turn. The text is appended to the last tool result's content once the current tool completes, giving the agent new context without breaking the current tool-calling loop. Use this to nudge direction mid-task (e.g. "focus on the auth module" while the agent is running tests). |
 | `/goal <text>` | Set a standing goal Hermes works toward across turns — our take on the Ralph loop. After each turn an auxiliary judge model decides whether the goal is done; if not, Hermes auto-continues. Subcommands: `/goal status`, `/goal pause`, `/goal resume`, `/goal clear`. Budget defaults to 20 turns (`goals.max_turns`); any real user message preempts the continuation loop, and state survives `/resume`. See [Persistent Goals](/user-guide/features/goals) for the full walkthrough. |
 | `/subgoal <text>` | Append a user-supplied criterion to the active goal mid-loop. The continuation prompt surfaces all subgoals to the agent verbatim, and the judge factors them into its DONE/CONTINUE verdict — so the goal isn't marked done until the original goal **and** every subgoal are met. Subcommands: `/subgoal` (list), `/subgoal remove <N>`, `/subgoal clear`. Requires an active `/goal`. |
 | `/heartbeat every <interval> <prompt>` (alias: `/hb`) | Set a recurring prompt that re-enters **this session** as a normal user turn whenever it's idle and the interval has elapsed (min 60s; missed ticks coalesce). Subcommands: `/heartbeat status`, `/heartbeat pause`, `/heartbeat resume`, `/heartbeat clear`. Session-scoped and in-process — use `hermes cron` for durable isolated schedules. See [Session Heartbeats](/user-guide/features/heartbeat). |
+| `/loop [interval] <prompt> [--times N] [--until <condition>]` (alias: `/proactive`) | Re-run a prompt (or another slash command) on a recurring interval in **this session** — fixed cadence (`/loop 5m check the deploy`) or continuous re-fire when no interval is given. `--times N` caps the run count; `--until <condition>` lets an auxiliary judge stop the loop when the condition is met. Subcommands: `/loop status`, `/loop pause`, `/loop resume`, `/loop stop`. See [Loops](/user-guide/features/loops). |
 | `/refine [focus]` | Run the background memory/skill self-improvement review **now** instead of waiting for the automatic post-turn trigger. Optional focus text steers the review (e.g. `/refine save the deploy workflow as a skill`). Runs in a background fork against a conversation snapshot — the live session and prompt cache are untouched; results are reported when done. |
 | `/review [instructions]` | Spawn an independent, full-privilege reviewer subagent to review the work just discussed — a PR, code, docs, any artifact referenced in the last 10 chat messages. It investigates in the background (opens the PR, reads the diff, runs code) and its full review re-enters this session as a background-subagent completion the primary agent can act on. Pin a dedicated review model via `auxiliary.review` in config.yaml (defaults to your main model). See [Subagent Delegation](/user-guide/features/delegation#the-review-command). |

 Prompt caches are keyed to the model serving the request, so any mid-conversation model change — an explicit `/model` switch, an [automatic fallback](./features/fallback-providers.md), or a [credential-pool](./features/credential-pools.md) rotation onto a different account — means the next message re-reads the entire conversation at full input-token price instead of the cached (~75–90% discounted) rate. On a long session this one-time re-read can dwarf the per-token difference between the two models. Switch when you need to, but prefer doing it early in a conversation or right after starting a fresh session.
 :::
 
+Because of that one-time re-read cost, Hermes asks for **explicit confirmation** before applying a mid-session switch when the live session already holds a large context (default: **100,000 tokens**, measured from the latest provider-billed prompt size). The confirmation renders through the same selection-guard prompt as the expensive-model and data-training warnings wherever a live session is switching: the CLI and TUI `/model` command and picker, and a typed gateway `/model` in a chat with an active agent. Tune or disable it in `config.yaml`:
+
+```yaml
+model:
+  # Ask before mid-session switches when the session exceeds this many
+  # context tokens (the next reply re-reads them uncached). 0 disables.
+  switch_context_confirm_tokens: 100000
+```

+Re-selecting the model you're already on never prompts (the cache stays warm), and sessions with no measured context (fresh sessions, non-live surfaces) are exempt.

 ### Unattended data-training tiers
 
 Models with a `-contributor` suffix (e.g. `muse-spark-1.2-contributor`, `muse-spark-1.3-contributor`) are discounted because the vendor may train on your prompts and completions. Interactive model selection always shows a confirmation prompt. Non-interactive startup paths such as Kanban workers and cron agents fail closed because they cannot ask that question.

+The model picker lives in the **composer**, just left of the microphone. Click it to switch the model; hover a model row for its options (thinking, effort, fast). Next to it, a **reasoning pill** shows the active model's effort level (`Med`, `High`, …) and opens the same options directly, so you can change effort without finding the model's row.

+### Forwarding Images to a Subagent
+
+Text context is not enough when the task is inherently visual — a screenshot the user sent, a design mock, a rendered chart. Each task accepts an optional `images` list (up to 8 entries; local file paths, `http(s)` URLs or `data:image/...` URLs):
+
+```python
+delegate_task(tasks=[{
+    "goal": "Compare the rendered dashboard against the design mock and list layout deviations",
+    "context": "The app runs at http://localhost:3000; the repo is at /home/user/dash.",
+    "images": ["/home/user/mocks/dashboard-v2.png",
+               "https://cdn.example.com/current-render.png"],
+}])
+```
+
+Delivery follows the same routing as user-attached images (`agent.image_input_mode`):
+
+- **Vision-capable child model** — the images arrive as native multimodal content on the child's first turn: local files are embedded as data URLs (subject to the same read guard as every other file read), remote and `data:` URLs pass through verbatim. The child sees the actual pixels.
+- **Non-vision child model** — the goal gains `[Image attached at: <path>]` hint lines and the child is told to inspect them with `vision_analyze`.
+
+Forwarding is best-effort: unreadable paths are skipped with a log line, and any failure in the image plumbing falls back to the plain text goal — it can never break a spawn. Images are for things the child must *see*; put text file paths in `context` as usual.

+### `agent_loop_stopped`
+
+Fires when the gateway **interrupts a running agent turn** — the user ran `/stop` while the loop was working, or the running-agent fast-path inside `/new` cleared the in-flight run before swapping the session. Unlike `on_session_finalize`, this fires earlier, while a turn is mid-flight, so plugins can drop per-turn external resources the agent loop will never consume (e.g. an outbound RPC that was waiting for a tool result).
+
+Fires on both interruption surfaces: the messaging **gateway** (`/stop`, `/new` fast-path) and the **TUI/desktop** `session.interrupt` path (platform is reported as `"tui"`). Does not fire in the plain CLI; there is no equivalent interruption surface there.

+| `session_key` | `str` | The session whose run was interrupted. |
+| `platform` | `str` | The messaging platform name (`"telegram"`, `"discord"`, etc.); empty string if unknown. |
+| `reason` | `str` | Why the agent was interrupted (e.g. `"user_stop"`, the reset/new reason). |
+| `invalidation_reason` | `str` | Why queued session state was invalidated (e.g. `"stop_command"`, `"stop_command_thread_sibling"`, `"reset_command"`). |
+
+**Fires:** In `gateway/run.py::_interrupt_and_clear_session`, immediately after `request_hard_interrupt()` interrupts the running agent. Only when a real agent was running — the pending-sentinel `/stop` path (no agent loop yet started) does **not** fire this hook, since there is no in-flight work to drop. On the slow `/new` reset path, `on_session_finalize` fires later in `_handle_reset_command` instead.
+
+**Return value:** Ignored.
+
+**Use cases:** Cancel external requests blocked on a tool result the loop will never consume, notify a connected voice/realtime client that a tool call was abandoned, release per-turn credentials or locks held only for the duration of an active turn.

 Fires **once per child agent** after `delegate_task` has constructed the child `AIAgent` and before that child is run. Whether you delegate a single task or a batch of three, this hook fires once for each child.

 Kanban is deliberately single-host. `~/.hermes/kanban.db` is a local SQLite file and the dispatcher spawns workers on the same machine.

If you need multi-host, run an independent board per host and use `delegate_task` / a message queue to bridge them.

 **Frozen snapshot pattern:** The system prompt injection is captured once at session start and never changes mid-session. This is intentional — it preserves the LLM's prefix cache for performance. When the agent adds/removes memory entries during a session, the changes are persisted to disk immediately but won't appear in the system prompt until the next session starts. Tool responses always show the live state.
 
+## Memory Needs Session Boundaries
+
+The whole memory system is built around the moment a session **ends**: `MEMORY.md` and `USER.md` carry the essentials into the next session, and `session_search` fills the gaps once the old context is gone. Inside a single session none of that machinery has a reason to run — everything important is still in the live context, so the agent rarely consults `session_search` and mostly compacts memory entries instead of curating them.
+
+This matters on messaging platforms (Telegram, Discord, etc.), where a chat is deliberately [one continuous session](/user-guide/sessions#session-continuity) that survives restarts, gateway crashes, and machine reboots. Shutting the machine down overnight does **not** end the session — the next message picks it up exactly where it left off. If you never reset, a chat can run for weeks as a single session: convenient, but it grows expensive (compaction runs repeatedly over an ever-longer history) and the learning loop of *forget → recall from memory → search past sessions* almost never gets to fire. Fresh memory entries also stay invisible to the running session because of the frozen snapshot above.
+
+**Practice:** run `/new` at natural boundaries — a finished task, a change of topic, the start of a day. Each boundary is when memory pays off: the agent re-reads the updated `MEMORY.md`/`USER.md` snapshot, starts from a cheap short context, and reaches for `session_search` when it actually needs history. On the CLI this mostly takes care of itself (every invocation is a new session); on gateways the boundary is yours to create.

+## Event-Triggered Cron Jobs {#event-triggered-cron-jobs}
+
+Set `cron_job` on a route to fire an **existing cron job** whenever an event arrives — instead of polling on a fixed cadence or starting a fresh webhook agent session. This turns any scheduled job into an event-driven task: keep the schedule as a fallback sweep (or make it a rarely-firing one) and let the webhook fire it the moment something actually changes.
+
+How it works:
+
+1. The event passes the same HMAC auth, rate limiting, `events`/`filters`/`script` filtering, and idempotency as any other route.
+2. The route's `prompt` template is rendered from the payload and injected into the job as **transient per-run context** (the same rail as `cronjob(action='run', prompt=...)` — the job's stored prompt is never mutated).
+3. The job fires through the same at-most-once claim the scheduler uses, so a webhook burst cannot double-fire a job that is already running, and the job's own delivery target receives the output.
+
+### Example: fire a PR-review job on review feedback
+
+```yaml
+platforms:
+  webhook:
+    enabled: true
+    extra:
+      routes:
+        pr-feedback:
+          events: ["pull_request_review"]
+          secret: "github-webhook-secret"
+          cron_job: "pr-review-sweeper"        # existing job ID or name
+          prompt: |
+            PR #{number} in {repository.full_name} received new review feedback
+            from {review.user.login}: {review.body}
+```
+
+### Via the CLI
+
+```bash
+hermes webhook subscribe pr-feedback \
+  --events "pull_request_review" \
+  --cron-job "pr-review-sweeper" \
+  --prompt "PR #{number} received feedback: {review.body}"
+```
+
+The job reference is validated when you create the subscription, so typos surface immediately.
+
+### Notes
+
+- `cron_job` and `deliver_only` are mutually exclusive (the adapter refuses to start if a route sets both). A cron job handles its own delivery.
+- The route-level `deliver`, `deliver_extra`, and `skills` fields are ignored on `cron_job` routes — the job's own settings apply.
+- Paused/disabled jobs are not fired; the event is logged and dropped.
+- The POST returns `202 Accepted` immediately; the job runs in the background.

 ## Dynamic Subscriptions (CLI) {#dynamic-subscriptions}
 
 In addition to static routes in `config.yaml`, you can create webhook subscriptions dynamically using the `hermes webhook` CLI command. This is especially useful when the agent itself needs to set up event-driven triggers.

+install that is already multiplexing is left alone. `hermes update` also does
+nothing when no secondary profile runs its own gateway — it never flips modes
+on an install where nothing was running.
+
+### Boundaries `hermes update` never crosses on its own
+
+The unattended hook only folds profiles that share **one UNIX user, one service
+domain and one `profiles/` tree** — the shape `hermes profile create` produces.
+A standalone secondary behind any of these boundaries stops the automatic path:
+
+| boundary | example |
+|---|---|
+| different service manager or scope | default on user systemd, a secondary on **system** systemd (or launchd), or the default detached with a service-managed secondary |
+| different UNIX user | a system unit with its own `User=`, or a live gateway owned by another uid |
+| `HERMES_HOME` outside `<default home>/profiles/` | a unit pinning `HERMES_HOME=/opt/hermes/profiles/emma` |
+
+In that case `hermes update` prints the boundary it found plus
+`hermes gateway migrate --multiplex`, and changes nothing — no unit is removed
+and `gateway.multiplex_profiles` stays off. Collapsing such a fleet replaces a
+kernel-enforced boundary (file ownership, `User=`) with in-process isolation,
+which is an operator's decision. The explicit command still makes it: the same
+findings appear as **notices** in `hermes gateway migrate --multiplex --dry-run`
+so you can read them first, and `--multiplex` proceeds when you confirm.
+
+### Opting out of the automatic migration
+
+Set `gateway.auto_multiplex_migration: false` on the **default** profile to keep
+the automatic fold from ever running on this install:
+
+```bash
+hermes config set gateway.auto_multiplex_migration false
+```
+
+`hermes update` then leaves per-profile gateways exactly as they are, with no
+output and no changes, however eligible the install looks. The setting lives in
+config, so it survives updates — the decision is made once rather than
+re-litigated on every release. It governs the **automatic** path only:
+`hermes gateway migrate --multiplex` is an explicit request and still migrates
+(and is the supported way to opt back in). Absent or `true` keeps the default
+behaviour described above.
+
+The explicit command is different: `hermes gateway migrate --multiplex` with
+two or more profiles and **no** standalone secondary gateway still applies the
+one remaining step — it sets `gateway.multiplex_profiles: true`, (re)starts the
+default gateway and writes the same rollback manifest (with an empty
+`secondaries` list), so `--standalone` undoes it. You asked for multiplex; you
+get multiplex.

+### Messaging channels are never cloned (`--clone-channels` to opt in)
+
+Every clone — `--clone`, `--clone-from`, `--clone-all`, and the dashboard / Desktop / TUI
+"clone from profile" option — copies the source **without its messaging channels**: bot tokens
+and allowlists (`TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN`, `DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS`, `WHATSAPP_ENABLED`,
+`API_SERVER_KEY`, `WEBHOOK_SECRET`, …), the `platforms:` / `telegram:` / `discord:` sections of
+`config.yaml`, `gateway.multiplex_profiles` / `profile_routes`, and (for `--clone-all`) the
+pairing store, WhatsApp session and other per-bot state. Provider and tool API keys, the model
+block, memory settings, skills and `SOUL.md` are copied as before. The command prints which
+platforms were left behind.
+
+The reason is that a bot can only belong to one profile: two standalone gateways holding the
+same token fight over its long-poll, and a [multiplexed gateway](./multi-profile-gateways.md)
+parks the duplicate adapter (and `hermes gateway migrate --multiplex` refuses with one
+duplicate-credential blocker per platform). Configure the new profile's own bots with
+`hermes -p <name> setup` or the dashboard Messaging page.
+
+```bash
+hermes profile create twin --clone --clone-channels   # keep the source's bots anyway
+```
+
+`--clone-channels` is refused when a running multiplexed gateway already serves the source
+(the copy would be parked immediately) — from the CLI, the dashboard and the TUI alike — and
+otherwise prints a warning naming the platforms now shared with the source. It is an error
+without a clone flag. `hermes profile list` prints the same warning for any existing
+profile whose bot credential is byte-identical to the default's, so older clones surface
+before they bite.
+
+**What counts as a channel setting** — the inventory is ownership-based and is judged in the
+*source* profile's plugin scope (its private `plugins/` adapters included):
+
+- every key an adapter declares (tokens, app/client ids, allowlists, allow-all switches, home
+  channels) and every key under its `<PLATFORM>_` prefix, including historical aliases
+  (`WECOM_*`, `SMS_*`/`TWILIO_*`, `QQ_*`, `HASS_*`, `EMAIL_*`);
+- gateway-wide channel policy `GATEWAY_ALLOW_ALL_USERS` / `GATEWAY_ALLOWED_USERS` and the
+  relay enrollment identity `GATEWAY_RELAY_ID` / `GATEWAY_RELAY_SECRET` / `GATEWAY_RELAY_DELIVERY_KEY`;
+- for `--clone-all`, per-bot state files **and directories** (`platforms/`, pairing ledgers,
+  `google_chat_user_tokens/`, `<platform>_*`).
+
+Credentials that a messaging adapter shares with a non-channel capability — `HASS_TOKEN`/`HASS_URL`
+(also the Home Assistant tool), `TWILIO_*` (also the telephony skill), `EMAIL_*` (also
+mail-sending scripts) — are stripped **only when the source's gateway would run that adapter**
+(the platform is enabled in its `config.yaml`, or its credential set is complete and not
+explicitly disabled). A source with `platforms.homeassistant.enabled: false` uses `HASS_TOKEN`
+as a tool key, so the clone keeps it. Allowlists and ports under those prefixes are always
+channel-only and always stripped.
+
+Clones are built in a hidden staging directory beside `profiles/` and published with one
+rename after the strip, so a running multiplexer (which rescans `profiles/` on create) can
+never start adapters on a half-copied tree. A symlinked source `.env`/`config.yaml` is
+materialized as a private copy first — the clone never writes through to the source.

+### Session hygiene: why you should still run `/new`
+

+inflates costs:
+
+- **Memory only pays off at boundaries.** `MEMORY.md` / `USER.md` are injected
+  at session start, and `session_search` exists to recall what fell out of
+  context. In a never-ending session everything is still *in* context, so the
+  agent has no reason to consult memory — the "self-learning" machinery barely
+  runs. Memory distillation (the save before reset) also only happens when a
+  session actually ends.
+- **Cost grows with history.** Compression keeps a long session functional,
+  but every turn still carries a large (compacted) prefix. A fresh session
+  with distilled memory is almost always cheaper than a month-old thread.
+
+Practical rule: end a session when you finish a task or topic. Run `/new`
+(optionally named, e.g. `/new payments-refactor`) at natural stopping points —
+daily or per-project both work. Before the reset, ask the agent to "remember
+anything worth keeping" if the work surfaced durable preferences or
+procedures; it saves memories and skills from the expiring session
+automatically, but an explicit nudge helps. Restarting the machine or the
+gateway is **not** a boundary — the same session resumes.

+See [Memory](features/memory.md) for what gets carried across boundaries.

+:::
+
+# AI Presenter Video
+
+Turn a topic (or finished script) plus ONE authorized adult presenter image
+into a complete, publish-ready presenter-led video: locked narration, avatar
+generation with lip-sync QA, captions, deterministic editing, loudness-normalized
+master/share encodes, and machine + visual acceptance reports.
+
+Use this skill for new presenter videos AND for continuing, revising,
+captioning, lip-sync-repairing, or re-exporting an existing presenter-video
+job. The workflow is provider-neutral: pick generation capabilities from what
+is actually available in the session (FAL video/image models via
+`image_generate` and the video-gen plugin, TTS via `text_to_speech`, ASR via
+the whisper/STT tooling, ffmpeg for everything deterministic).
+
+> Ported from cclank/lanshu-create-ai-presenter-video (MIT). Upstream body
+> kept substantively verbatim in `references/`; Hermes adaptations live in
+> this hub file. Scripts are deterministic (no network, no credentials).
+
+## Hermes adaptations (read first)
+
+- **Skill dir resolution** — upstream hardcoded its own agent's skills path.
+  In Hermes the loader expands `${HERMES_SKILL_DIR}` to this skill's installed
+  directory, so every command below uses that token directly:
+
+  ```bash
+  SKILL_DIR="${HERMES_SKILL_DIR}"
+  ```
+
+  Shell variables do not persist between tool calls — re-paste the assignment
+  (or the expanded path) in each terminal call that uses it.
+- **Capability mapping** — where the references say "a voice generation
+  capability", use `text_to_speech` (OpenAI/Edge/ElevenLabs per user config);
+  "presenter/avatar generation" → FAL image-to-video families (Kling, Wan,
+  MiniMax H3 etc.) through the configured video tooling, or an avatar/lipsync
+  endpoint the user has access to; "word-timestamp ASR" → whisper via the STT
+  tooling or `faster-whisper` in a venv; "deterministic compositor" → ffmpeg
+  filtergraphs, or the `hyperframes` skill when installed (the editing
+  reference has a HyperFrames section that maps directly onto it).
+- **Visual QA** — do the "normal-speed visual review" steps with
+  `vision_analyze` on the generated contact sheet plus sampled frames
+  (identity, mouth timing, hands, blinking, continuity). Numeric checks come
+  from the scripts' ffprobe output.
+- **Paid-generation consent** — remote avatar/TTS generation is billable.
+  Follow the upstream operating rules: before the first paid call state the
+  uploaded assets, requested seconds, known cost, pilot size, and retry
+  ceiling, and get the user's explicit go-ahead. Never upload the presenter
+  image to a remote provider before `remote_upload_approved` is true in
+  `job.json`.
+- **Consent flags live under `input`** — `rights_confirmed`,
+  `adult_presenter_confirmed`, `remote_upload_approved`, and
+  `voice_clone_approved` sit inside the `input` object of `job.json` (init
+  flags set them; hand-editing must target `input.*`, not the job root).
+  `manual_input_review.*` sits at the root. `preflight.py` distinguishes
+  `errors` (block everything) from `remote_blockers` (block only remote
+  generation) — local script/audio work may proceed while remote is blocked.
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. **Start or resume a job.** New job:
+
+   ```bash
+   python3 "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/init_job.py" \
+     --job-dir ~/Videos/my-presenter-video \
+     --presenter-image /path/to/presenter.png \
+     --topic "explain context engineering in one minute" \
+     --duration 60 --aspect 9:16 \
+     --rights-confirmed --adult-presenter-confirmed
+   ```
+
+   Use `--script` for an existing script file; other flags: `--voice-sample`,
+   `--supporting-media`, `--width`, `--height`, `--fps`, `--watermark`,
+   `--cta`. For an existing job, read `job.json` + QA reports and resume from
+   the earliest unfinished state — never regenerate accepted work.
+
+2. **Manual input review.** Actually look at the presenter image
+   (`vision_analyze`) and listen to any voice sample; record findings by
+   setting the `manual_input_review` booleans in `job.json`, e.g.:
+
+   ```bash
+   python3 - <<'PY'
+   import json
+   p = "~/Videos/my-presenter-video/job.json"  # expand ~ or use an absolute path
+   import os; p = os.path.expanduser(p)
+   j = json.load(open(p))
+   j["manual_input_review"].update(image_viewed=True, single_clear_face=True,
+                                   image_has_no_unwanted_text=True)
+   json.dump(j, open(p, "w"), indent=2)
+   PY
+   ```
+
+   Then gate:
+
+   ```bash
+   python3 "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/preflight.py" ~/Videos/my-presenter-video/job.json
+   ```
+
+   Proceed only when `ok: true`; do remote generation only when
+   `remote_ready: true`. Note: preflight also updates `job.json` in place
+   (records the report path) — re-read it after running rather than editing
+   a stale copy.
+
+3. **Lock content and audio** — read `references/generation.md`. Script →
+   full narration via `text_to_speech` → ASR-verify the narration against the
+   script → record real durations. The locked audio is the master clock for
+   everything downstream.
+
+4. **Plan and generate the presenter** — read `references/generation.md`.
+   Short low-cost pilot first; full run only after the pilot passes identity
+   and mouth-timing review.
+
+5. **Edit** — read `references/editing.md`. Deterministic timeline driven by
+   the locked audio; captions and keyword callouts only after audio and media
+   are final.
+
+6. **Verify and deliver** — read `references/qa-recovery.md`, render, then:
+
+   ```bash
+   bash "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/finalize_delivery.sh" \
+     ~/Videos/my-presenter-video/renders/rendered.mp4 \
+     ~/Videos/my-presenter-video/outputs my-video
+   ```
+
+   The finalizer preserves aspect ratio, runs two-pass loudness normalization
+   (program ≈ −16 LUFS), produces master + share encodes, decode-verifies
+   both, writes a delivery report JSON, and emits a nine-frame contact sheet.
+   Inspect the contact sheet with `vision_analyze` before claiming completion.
+
+## Operating rules (non-negotiable)
+
+- Confirm image rights, adult status, remote-upload approval, and
+  voice-cloning authorization before the relevant remote action.
+- Never infer or clone a real person's voice from an image; use an authorized
+  sample or a stock TTS voice.
+- Lock the complete narration before presenter generation, caption timing, or
+  final scene boundaries.
+- Mute video sources in the final composition; only the approved narration
+  and intentional mix tracks carry audio.
+- Preserve provider request bodies and task IDs (minus credentials/expiring
+  URLs). Poll interrupted work before resubmitting — avoid double billing.
+- Stop after three rejected paid candidates and summarize the failure mode.
+- Do not claim completion until the final files fully decode and the contact
+  sheet or full playback has been reviewed.
+
+## Defaults for minimal input
+
+9:16, 1080×1920, 30fps; topic-derived videos target 45–75s; stock voice when
+no authorized sample; presenter-led layout with hook → 2–4 beats → close;
+no music/CTA unless requested; language inferred from the request.
+
+## Reference routing
+
+- `references/generation.md` — intake, content, voice, capability selection,
+  presenter prompts, paid generation, provider changes.
+- `references/editing.md` — timeline contract, openings/closes, captions,
+  keyword-callout presets, HyperFrames composition, exports.
+- `references/qa-recovery.md` — technical acceptance, visual acceptance, and
+  recovery for lip-sync/identity/hands/exposure/freeze/caption/audio faults.
+
+## Pitfalls
+
+- `preflight.py` requires ffprobe; on a bare box install ffmpeg first.
+- The consent booleans set by init flags land under `input.*`; editing them
+  at the job-json root silently does nothing (preflight keeps blocking).
+- `finalize_delivery.sh` needs bash + jq + awk and a fully decodable input —
+  a truncated render fails the decode check by design, not by accident.
+- Long avatar clips drift: prefer one continuous presenter source sliced on
+  the audio timeline over many regenerated chapter clips (identity drift
+  across regenerations is the #1 visual-QA failure).
+- FAL i2v endpoints cap duration (typically 5–15s); plan chapter-level
+  presenter segments accordingly and reuse the pilot's seed/params for
+  consistency where the endpoint supports it.
+

+
+# Dream Loop Skill
+
+An autonomous process for building extremely impressive visuals, especially 3D
+scenes (games, apps, usually browser three.js/WebGL): generate photorealistic
+concept art of the ideal result, build it, screenshot the live build, have a
+judge score screenshot vs concept against a gated ladder, and iterate until
+convergence. Goal: the most visually stunning result at an acceptable frame
+rate for the target platform (e.g. 60 fps browser, 120 fps modern mobile).
+
+This skill does NOT cover general web-app functionality, 2D UI design, or
+non-visual quality — only the visual-fidelity loop.
+
+## When to Use
+
+- User says "dream loop" or asks for a game/scene/app built to a very high
+  level of graphical fidelity.
+- Follow-up refinement passes on an existing visual product (see Follow-up
+  loops below).
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- **Concept art**: the `image_generate` tool. If unavailable, stop and ask the
+  user for a concept image (or an image-generation API to connect to).
+- **Screenshots**: `browser_exec` — serve the build locally
+  (`python3 -m http.server` for static builds), then `new_tab(url)`,
+  `wait_for_load()`, `capture_screenshot()`.
+- **Judging**: `vision_analyze` (see Judge section for the one-image-per-call
+  workaround).
+- **Optional**: Blender for asset modeling — see the `blender-3d-automation`
+  skill. `delegate_task` for parallel asset work and fresh-context judging.
+
+If you don't have the tools needed for the full loop, flag that to the user
+early and stop.
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+| Stage | What happens | Artifacts (`.dream-loop/`) |
+|---|---|---|
+| 1. Target | Get/confirm the user's description | notes |
+| 2. Concept | Generate "in-engine screenshot" concept art | `concept.png` |
+| 3. Budget | Record time budget & start time (if given) | notes |
+| 4. Build | Implement the concept as well as possible in one go | source, plans |
+| 5. Screenshot | Capture live build at concept resolution | `round-N.png` |
+| 6. Self-check | Rigorous side-by-side audit before judging | assessment log |
+| 7. Judge | Ladder-scored comparison, actionable directives | verdict log |
+| 8. Iterate/Exit | Address directives or exit per criteria | — |
+
+## Procedure
+
+### 1. The target concept
+
+If the user provided a description of a game, scene, or app, proceed — don't
+ask for clarification unless it's too vague to generate concept art from. If
+they didn't, ask for it.
+
+Put working context/files in `.dream-loop/` and gitignore it (unless told
+otherwise).
+
+### 2. Concept art
+
+The concept is a realistic, high-quality, impressive target: the look of a
+current AAA game running in real time. Physically plausible materials (wet
+stone, brushed metal, cloth, glass) with real roughness and normal detail,
+correct proportions, atmosphere (fog, haze, rain, dust, volumetric light),
+cinematic lighting with a clear key and rich shadows. It should NOT be
+stylized or an artistic rendition — it should look like a true screenshot of
+the ideal result.
+
+Avoid these failure modes when generating with `image_generate`:
+
+- **Overbaked**: photographic clutter, film grain, hundreds of unique small
+  objects, excessive detail on every surface that reads as noise. A real-time
+  build with modeled assets won't match this, and it won't even look good.
+- **Oversimplified**: cartoon or toy look, flat shading, blobby primitive
+  shapes, empty surfaces. Boring; will not impress the user.
+
+Aim for the middle ground: beautiful surfaces and materials that shaders
+render well, strong atmosphere and lighting, an interesting palette, and
+focused hero elements with fine detail that draws the eye (not every element
+fighting for attention).
+
+Prompt for "in-engine screenshot" more than "concept art" and discourage the
+noisy/grainy look. Review the image with `vision_analyze`; if it hits a
+failure mode, pass it back to `image_generate` in edit mode and ask it to fix
+the issue. Save it as `.dream-loop/concept.png`.
+
+If you generated the art (the user didn't supply it), pause and confirm it
+matches the user's vision before starting the build loop.
+
+### 3. Time budget
+
+If the user gives a time budget, record the start time and check the clock
+between rounds. Don't degrade visual fidelity to hit the budget — strive for
+the absolute best result, and don't rush work to the judge. Parallelize or
+distribute work (e.g. `delegate_task` for independent assets) to hit the
+time goal, but no shortcuts: it's better to hit the time limit with
+meaningful, beautiful progress than with something broadly complete but ugly.
+
+If no time budget is given, run until an exit criterion — but warn upfront
+that this may consume a lot of tokens.
+
+### 4. Build loop
+
+Look at the concept art and implement it in one go, making that first pass
+count across every tier of the score ladder: composition, textures, lighting,
+details. Sculpt and model assets carefully (or use external ones if allowed);
+don't settle for basic procedural elements and flat surfaces unless the art
+style calls for it. Write intermediate files/plans to `.dream-loop/`.
+
+- If Blender is installed and the concept involves 3D assets, prefer modeling
+  in Blender (see the `blender-3d-automation` skill). For complex assets,
+  delegate to subagents via `delegate_task`.
+- If the user allows external assets, prefer them over modeling unless the
+  asset is simple. If unspecified, assume NO external assets from the web.
+- Do not be lazy with key environmental details (scenery, flooring,
+  buildings): simple shapes look blocky, shiny, flat, and fake. Tiny details
+  and texturing matter and need custom sculpting.
+- Use `image_generate` for textures, normal maps, skyboxes, etc. — better
+  looking and faster than procedural ones.
+
+### 5. Screenshot
+
+Serve the build (e.g. `python3 -m http.server` in the build dir), then via
+`browser_exec`: `new_tab('http://localhost:8000')`, `wait_for_load()`, allow
+the scene to settle, `capture_screenshot()`. Target the same resolution and
+aspect ratio as the concept art so the comparison is fair. Save as
+`.dream-loop/round-N.png`.
+
+### 6. Self-check before judging
+
+Each time, review the candidate screenshot yourself before submitting. Do not
+submit half-baked work. Compare screenshot and concept side by side and log an
+honest assessment of judge-readiness; only submit if confident you've
+significantly improved the score. Be rigorous and audit every pixel: big stuff
+(missing/incorrect objects, wrong scale, perspective, positioning) and small
+stuff (rendering glitches, flat untextured surfaces, ugly lighting, poor
+contrast, washed-out or oversaturated color, speckles, ugly shadows). Scan
+surface by surface, object by object, and list findings.
+
+### 7. Judge
+
+Judging should ideally be done by a fresh subagent with a clean context each
+round (`delegate_task`), to keep it objective and cheap. Give the judge the
+latest screenshot, the concept, and (from round 2 on) the previous round's
+screenshot and verdict.
+
+Mechanics: `vision_analyze` takes one image per call. Either have the judge
+make sequential calls (concept, then screenshot, then compare from memory of
+its own descriptions), or — better — stitch a labeled side-by-side composite
+with ImageMagick (`convert concept.png shot.png +append compare.png`) or PIL
+and analyze that single image.
+
+Judge prompt:
+
+> You are an art director reviewing a real-time render against its concept
+> art. Compare the screenshot to the concept and score it 0-10 using this
+> ladder. The ladder is gated: a frame cannot score above a tier's cap until
+> every requirement of the tiers below it is fully met. Be strict about the
+> gates.
+>
+> - **Tier 1, shape (0-3):** camera, framing, composition, and the position
+>   and rough scale of every major object match the concept. Layout, not
+>   finish: every major element present, in the right region of the frame
+>   (within ~10% of frame width/height), at roughly the right size (within
+>   ~25%). Right place and vaguely correct outline passes even if edges and
+>   surface are wrong; save precision nitpicks for Tier 4. Cap 3 until true.
+> - **Tier 2, light and color (3-5):** key light direction and color, overall
+>   exposure (no clipping to black or white), shadow depth, palette,
+>   contrast, atmosphere. Attend to reflections, glows, etc. Ensure the scene
+>   is not too bright or dark relative to the concept. Judge the whole frame,
+>   not tiny details (Tier 4). Cap 5 until lighting/reflections/color/
+>   contrast are generally right.
+> - **Tier 3, materials and surfaces (5-7):** every surface reads as the
+>   right material at a glance: textures, roughness, translucency, wetness,
+>   reflections. Assets must not look procedural, blocky, smooth/plastic;
+>   frame-dominating elements should be properly sculpted and detailed. Cap 7
+>   until true.
+> - **Tier 4, fine detail (7-9):** the small things. Nitpick relentlessly;
+>   inspect every little object up close. Layout aligns near-perfectly;
+>   materials extremely convincing. Cap 9 until right.
+> - **Tier 5, indistinguishable (9-10):** holds up side by side and zoomed
+>   in. Nitpick every pixel.
+>
+> If a previous verdict and screenshot are provided: you are one reviewer in
+> a sequence, not the first. Maintain consistency. First mark each previous
+> directive LANDED, PARTIAL, or NOT DONE against the new screenshot; carry
+> forward anything PARTIAL or NOT DONE. Don't reverse a prior directive
+> unless the result is clearly worse — and if you do, say so and why.
+>
+> Output format:
+> 1. Score on the first line; "Tier N" (highest fully-passed gate) on the
+>    second.
+> 1b. If given a previous verdict: the LANDED / PARTIAL / NOT DONE list.
+> 2. "Blocking:" the specific failures of the *next* tier's gate. The builder
+>    must clear these before anything else counts. Name the element and the
+>    change, with magnitudes: "Rocks: replace the stacked ovoid boulders with
+>    one continuous fractured slab; cracks 2-5cm wide, dark interiors, add
+>    surface texture so they don't look flat/plastic" — not "the rocks look
+>    artificial".
+> 3. Then at most 4 further directives from higher tiers, same style, ordered
+>    by points recoverable.
+>
+> No non-actionable feedback ("this looks synthetic") — name the specific
+> causes. Every directive must be actionable this round. Don't round up: if a
+> gate isn't fully passed, the cap holds.
+
+### 8. Exit criteria
+
+- **Score >= 8 and target FPS acceptable**: done. Show the user the latest
+  screenshot; ask if they want more iterations.
+- **Score >= 8 but FPS unacceptable**: optimize — lossless wins first, then
+  minimal-visual-impact ones. Re-judge afterwards to confirm no regression.
+- **Stall approaching** (best score hasn't improved a full point in 2 rounds,
+  or the judge named the same gap 3 times): stop incremental tweaks. Step
+  back and ask what about the *approach* is capping the score. Make one big
+  structural change in a round: swap asset strategy (sculpt in Blender, pull
+  real models/textures/HDRIs if allowed), rewrite the lighting model, rebuild
+  the composition, change the camera. Self-check carefully — big changes
+  break things. Only repeat parameter tuning if you can articulate why it
+  would work this time.
+- **Stalled** (already tried a big structural change, score flat 3 rounds,
+  judge is nitpicking or demanding intractable things like raytracing on a
+  GPU-less machine): stop, tell the user why you're blocked, give options.
+- **Otherwise**: address all or most heavy-hitting gaps this round, not just
+  the top one — rounds are expensive. Prioritize gaps that move the needle
+  most (lighting, textures, mesh detail). Only revert if the score dropped a
+  full point or more; small dips are judge noise, and reverting a whole round
+  throws out good changes with bad. If one change clearly regressed, undo
+  just that change. Loop.
+
+## Follow-up loops
+
+When building on an existing product (or the user re-invokes the skill for
+refinements), don't create new concept art in a vacuum — it may diverge from
+what exists. Instead capture a live screenshot of the current product and
+prompt `image_generate` to render the best possible version of it (current
+screenshot → AAA-graphics version of the same shot), then use that as the
+target. Multiple screens can run parallel judge loops if asked, at higher
+token cost.
+
+## Pitfalls
+
+- Overbaked or oversimplified concept art (see failure modes) — fix the
+  concept before building against it.
+- Submitting half-baked screenshots to the judge; the self-check gate exists
+  for a reason.
+- Screenshot at a different resolution/aspect than the concept — unfair
+  comparison, noisy verdicts.
+- Tunnel-visioning on incremental tweaks when the judge says you're off base.
+- Judging both images in one `vision_analyze` call — it takes one image;
+  composite them first.
+- Screenshotting before the scene loads/settles — add a wait after
+  `wait_for_load()` for asset streaming and animation warm-up.
+
+## Verification
+
+- `.dream-loop/concept.png` exists and passed the failure-mode review (and
+  user confirmation, if generated).
+- Each round has a screenshot, a logged self-assessment, and a judge verdict
+  with score + tier + directives.
+- Exit only via an explicit exit criterion; final screenshot shown to the
+  user with the final score and FPS measurement.

+
+# Mono-Color Editorial Print Skill
+
+Turn any user theme, sentence, or reference photo into an original printed editorial artifact with one stable visual language: adaptive neutral substrate + one or two inks + mechanically reproduced image + typographic tension + concise human voice.
+
+This skill designs and generates the image; it does not imitate any one reference, copy a source composition, wording, logo, or artwork, and it never uses more than two printing inks.
+
+## When to Use
+
+The user asks for a monochrome editorial poster, duotone print, risograph/zine poster, halftone photo treatment, one-ink or two-ink cover, or names the mono-color style. Chinese trigger vocabulary includes 单色海报、双色印刷、单色调视觉、蓝色/绿色孔版印刷、网点照片、复古或当代编辑排版. Do not trigger merely because a request mentions a color.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- The Hermes `image_generate` tool (search/describe it via the deferred-tool catalog if not loaded). If image generation is unavailable, deliver prompt-only and say so.
+- The `design-system/` catalogs bundled with this skill (see Quick Reference).
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+Print modes:
+
+| Mode | When |
+|---|---|
+| Pure one-ink | User explicitly requests one ink, monochrome, or one named ink without a second color |
+| Chromatic ink + black | Quiet, observational, natural, architectural, long-form subjects; chromatic plate carries the image, carbon/charcoal carries text |
+| Complementary duotone | General default; dominant plate 70–85%, accent 15–30% with a specific role; fallback pair Cobalt + Terracotta `#2148B8` + `#C65F38` |
+| Overprint duotone | Two plates deliberately overlap; the darker mixed zone is not a third ink |
+
+Catalogs (source of truth — **when an exact value differs, the catalog wins over any prose**; read only the catalog relevant to the current decision):
+
+| File | Provides |
+|---|---|
+| `design-system/colors.json` | Substrate IDs + exact hex, one-ink palette, approved two-ink pairs |
+| `design-system/compositions.json` | Layout-family IDs and geometry |
+| `design-system/typography.json` | Type-hierarchy role IDs |
+| `design-system/rhythm.json` | Visual tension profiles, focal events, unresolved edges |
+| `design-system/imperfections.json` | Controlled print-imperfection effect IDs and ranges |
+| `design-system/carriers.json` | Carrier signals (poster, journal page, cover, etc.) |
+
+References:
+
+- `references/visual-language.md` — full color/space/image-treatment/typography/tone rules
+- `references/composition.md` — layout decision flow, layout families, composition grammar, rhythm
+- `references/quality-gate.md` — originality firewall, hard avoids, inspection checklist
+
+## Procedure
+
+1. **Read the input.** Extract five things:
+   - **Subject:** the one person, object, scene, or idea that must remain recognizable.
+   - **Intent:** poetic observation, announcement, field note, personal statement, cultural poster, or specimen page.
+   - **Words:** preserve exact supplied text verbatim in its original language — never translate or rewrite it. If no text is supplied, invent one English display phrase of 2–8 words and keep it stable across retries. Omit text only on explicit request.
+   - **Image role:** hero photograph, isolated specimen, cropped fragment, texture source, or none.
+   - **Representation:** faithful reproduction (default) or abstract symbol extraction (when the user asks for abstract, artistic, loose, experimental, less realistic, or less photographic treatment).
+
+   For a complex topic, pick one concrete visual metaphor; do not illustrate every point. If the user supplies an image, preserve its identity and factual content — crop/isolate/halftone it, never replace the subject or invent branded details.
+
+2. **Resolve the recipe manifest.** Fill every field; do not skip any and do not expose the manifest unless the user asks for process details. Look up IDs and exact values in `design-system/`.
+
+   ````yaml
+   subject: <one recognizable subject>
+   intent: <one intent from Input Reading>
+   exact_text: <user text, generated 2-8 word phrase, or none>
+   text_language: <language of supplied text, otherwise English>
+   representation: <faithful reproduction or abstract symbol extraction>
+   ratio: <explicit ratio or 3:4>
+   carrier: <one carrier ID from design-system/carriers.json or none>
+   substrate: <one substrate ID and exact hex from design-system/colors.json>
+   mode: <pure one-ink, chromatic + black, complementary duotone, or overprint duotone>
+   palette: <one palette ID from design-system/colors.json>
+   inks: <the palette's named ink or approved pair with exact hex values>
+   plate_roles: <one explicit role per ink plate>
+   layout: <one composition ID from design-system/compositions.json>
+   empty_paper: <explicit percentage>
+   visual_tension: <relaxed, balanced, or assertive from design-system/rhythm.json>
+   focal_event: <one strong visual event from design-system/rhythm.json>
+   release_zone: <one deliberately quiet region that gives the focal event room>
+   unresolved_edge: <one optional edge behavior from design-system/rhythm.json or none>
+   image_treatment: <one mechanical reproduction process>
+   type_hierarchy: <one role ID from design-system/typography.json>
+   disruption: <one deliberate disruption>
+   imperfection_seed: <stable hash derived from the resolved recipe>
+   imperfections: <0-2 restrained effect IDs for contemporary work, or 2-3 for tactile/vintage work>
+   ````
+
+   Defaults when the user hasn't chosen: ratio `3:4`; substrate Neutral White `#FAFAF7` (Cool Gray `#E9E9E5` for architecture/tech/restrained; Pale Beige `#F5F1E8` only for tactile/archival/nostalgic subjects — never assume beige merely because the work uses halftone or risograph language); mode complementary duotone with Cobalt + Terracotta; empty paper `35%`; tension `relaxed` for reflective/leisure/unspecified cultural subjects, `balanced` for editorial information, `assertive` only for forceful declarations; disruption = one off-center image crop, or one oversized word when there is no image. Explicit user choices override defaults unless they violate the two-ink limit or the originality firewall. Identical inputs must resolve to the identical manifest — never vary palette, layout, percentages, or process for novelty.
+
+   Resolve generic color words consistently: blue→Cobalt, green→Botanical Green, orange→Terracotta Orange, red→Signal Red, purple→Aubergine, black→Charcoal; green+black→Mint Green + Charcoal; blue+orange→Cobalt + Terracotta. Exact named inks always take precedence.
+
+3. **Choose the layout.** Walk the decision flow in `references/composition.md` top to bottom and take the first match (events→ruled information poster; botanical→archival plate; repeated object→object field; crossing layers→overprint collage; supplied photo→image field or editorial cover; isolated objects→specimen annotation; phrase-as-subject→type-led declaration; essay-like→editorial journal; otherwise editorial cover).
+
+4. **Compile the prompt** in five compact paragraphs, in order:
+   1. **Canvas and ink:** ratio, exact substrate hex and reason, exact one/two-ink palette hexes, print mode, plate roles, flat front-facing page (no mockup, frame, desk, or shadow).
+   2. **Original composition:** layout family, tension profile, one focal event, one release zone, margins (5–9%), empty-paper percentage (25–55%), grid, dominant object scale (45–80% of page) and edge crop, optional unresolved edge, one manual gesture.
+   3. **Subject:** what appears; for faithful reproduction, preservation/crop/halftone/paper exposure; for abstract extraction, the 2–4 identity anchors, dominant mass, structural contour, repeated rhythm, and where exposed paper cuts through.
+   4. **Typography and words:** hierarchy, type voices, exact short display text, and the explicit overlap/crossing/split/tight alignment between headline and dominant object.
+   5. **Material and avoids:** dots, fibers, bleed, misregistration, plus the hard negative constraints from `references/quality-gate.md`.
+
+   Describe only visible outcomes. Never mention reference artists, studios, sample posters, or "in the style of."
+
+5. **Generate and inspect.** Call `image_generate` with the compiled prompt. Inspect at full and thumbnail size against the checklist in `references/quality-gate.md`; regenerate once on failure (extra ink, missing plate roles, empty paper outside 25–55%, unrecognizable subject, no ≥5x type scale jump, garbled text, composition copying a reference, no identifiable focal event). If exact text still renders wrong after one retry, generate a text-light base image and state that typography should be overlaid in a layout tool — never pretend distorted text is correct.
+
+6. **Deliver.** Save outputs under `./mono-color-output/` in the user's working directory (create it if needed), or another location the user names. Present:
+   1. the generated image (path or rendered);
+   2. the final prompt in a fenced `text` block;
+   3. a short recipe note: Mode, Ink (exact hexes), Layout, Type (editorial + utility voice), Process, and one Originality sentence naming the structural departures from any supplied reference.
+
+   Stop at prompt-only only when the user explicitly asks or image generation is unavailable.
+
+## Pitfalls
+
+- **Never more than two printing inks.** The substrate is not an ink; overprint mixing and density variation are not extra inks. Gradients, rainbow accents, and full-color photography are always out.
+- **Catalog wins over prose.** When a hex, ID, range, or geometry in `design-system/` differs from any prose description, use the catalog value.
+- **Preserve supplied text verbatim** — original language, exact wording, no translation unless asked. Never distort microcopy or factual text with imperfection effects.
+- **Never copy a source composition, wording, logo, or artwork.** Change at least four structural features from any supplied reference (see the originality firewall). No fake signatures, mastheads, sponsors, URLs, or invented branding.
+- **Contemporary by default.** Do not add yellowed paper, sepia, distressed borders, or retro props merely because the work uses halftone or limited inks — only when the user asks for vintage/archival mood.
+- **One focal event, one release zone.** Never center everything, never distribute elements evenly like a template, never fill the quiet zone with decoration.
+
+## Verification
+
+- Manifest fully resolved, all IDs present in the `design-system/` catalogs.
+- Result uses one intentional white/gray/pale-beige substrate and ≤2 inks with clear plate roles.
+- 25–55% visibly empty paper; one dominant object at 45–80%; headline visibly crosses or locks to it.
+- Type hierarchy shows a 5–12x scale jump with ≤3 type voices.
+- Supplied subject and text preserved exactly; ≥4 structural features differ from every supplied reference.
+- An image was generated (unless prompt-only was requested) and saved under the output directory, and the recipe note was delivered.

+
+# System Atlas Skill
+
+An atlas is one data file (`data.mjs`) that renders two views: an **interactive isometric map** (a single self-contained `atlas.html` — hover to read, click to pin, go inside for steps, moving data packets you can inspect, chapters that reveal the system a few structures at a time), and a **generated text twin** (`SYSTEM.md`) with the decisions table, every structure, the flows, and the open questions by ID. The data file is the only thing anyone edits; both views rebuild from it. It sits beside a hand-written glossary (`CONTEXT.md`) and ADRs.
+
+**Does:** interactive architecture maps with progressive disclosure, question tracking across feedback rounds, a generated text twin, and a repeatable update loop.
+**Doesn't:** static one-off diagrams (use the architecture-diagram or excalidraw skill), finished systems that only need a README, or a single diagram for a PR.
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use whenever someone wants to discuss, design, review, or explain an architecture visually — "make an atlas", "map the system", "make the architecture explorable", "visualize the codebase/agent/pipeline so we can talk about it", "a diagram I can click around", "walk me through how it fits together" — or when an architecture discussion is producing a pile of open questions that need tracking across feedback rounds. Also use it to update an existing atlas after decisions change. Best when the system is new enough that vocabulary, decisions, and questions are still moving and there will be more than one feedback round.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Node.js (any recent version; the build uses only `node:fs`, `node:path`, `node:url` — no npm install needed).
+- A static server for verification (`npx serve` or `python3 -m http.server`).
+
+## How to Run
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p <atlas home>/atlas
+cp <skill>/assets/{template.html,build.mjs} <atlas home>/atlas/
+cp <skill>/assets/data.example.mjs <atlas home>/atlas/data.mjs   # then fill it in
+node <atlas home>/atlas/build.mjs   # writes ../SYSTEM.md and ../atlas.html
+```
+
+Every field of the data file is documented in `assets/data.example.mjs`.
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+| File | Role | Edit it? |
+|---|---|---|
+| `atlas/data.mjs` | Single source of truth: structures, flows, chapters, decisions, questions, prose | Yes |
+| `atlas/template.html` + `atlas/build.mjs` | Renderer + generator | Presentation only |
+| `atlas.html` | Built atlas; republish at the same URL after every rebuild | No (generated) |
+| `SYSTEM.md` | Built text twin | No (generated) |
+| `CONTEXT.md` | Glossary, one line per noun | By hand |
+| `adr/` | Hard-to-reverse decisions | By hand |
+| `research/` | Deep-dive evidence | Append-only |
+
+## Procedure
+
+Follow the order — each step was earned by a correction the first time round.
+
+1. **Read the inputs before drawing.** The vision doc, the repo's existing surfaces, and whatever prior art the user allows (ask — they may forbid a branch or a source). If you will build on a framework, read its docs first; hand long docs to a subagent via `delegate_task` with your specific design questions and have it return a primer with gotchas and a "what it does not give us" list. Drawing before this produces boxes that don't map to anything real.
+2. **Discuss before drawing.** Propose the structure in chat, mapped to the runtime's real primitives, and ask only the questions you cannot derive from the repo. Take defaults for the rest and say which.
+3. **First atlas — the whole system.** Copy `assets/` into the atlas home (rename `data.example.mjs` to `data.mjs`), fill the data, build with `node`, publish. **Where the atlas home is depends on the repo's docs policy** — ask before committing anything. Docs-friendly repos: `docs/<system>/atlas/` in-tree. Repos that commit only ADRs and `CONTEXT.md`: put the atlas, `SYSTEM.md`, and `research/` in a git-ignored scratch dir and attach `SYSTEM.md` + research to the spec issue when published. (Committing the whole set once produced a 3,900-line docs PR and four review rounds reconciling three restatements of one design.) Load the design-md or architecture-diagram skill via skill_view for HTML-artifact guidance if useful; read `references/design-language.md` for the visual rules either way.
+4. **Progressive disclosure.** A whole system at once reads as noise. Ten-ish chapters; each adds at most three structures and runs one small flow that only touches revealed structures; the last chapter shows everything with a flow picker. Unrevealed structures stay in the index, dimmed, with their chapter number. Panels are summary-first: one sentence, then *Read more* and *Steps* folded.
+5. **Shapes and labels.** Letters on boxes are not enough. Give each role a shape and put a readable name label on the canvas under every structure — see design-language.
+6. **Text twin.** `CONTEXT.md` is a glossary and nothing else (the nouns, one line each); ADRs only for decisions that are hard to reverse, surprising without context, and the result of a real trade-off — these two are the in-tree pieces. `SYSTEM.md` is generated and `research/` holds evidence; both live with the atlas (scratch dir or `docs/`, per step 3). Don't open issues unless asked.
+7. **Feedback by question ID.** Every question is `Q-<code><n>` with a state: open (a string), resolved `{q, r}` (answer + date), or routed `{q, to}` (handed to a named next step). Record the user's words. If they call something "not a question", drop it; if they say "I don't get this", explain with a concrete example *before* resolving. After each round: rebuild, republish, update memory.
+8. **Deep dives feed back.** Research with subagents (`delegate_task`) against one shared brief (the interface we own, the requirements that separate candidates, a usage model for cost, a fixed deliverable shape). Write a synthesis with a normalized cost/fit grid. Fold resolutions into the data as `{q, r: '… (from the deep dive, date)'}`. If the user rejects a proposal, sweep *every* file and rewrite — a banner on top of a stale section is not enough.
+9. **Keep it current.** One source, rebuild and republish after every change, never hand-edit generated files, and leave a `README.md` in the docs folder explaining the set (table in `references/process-and-lessons.md`).
+
+## Publishing
+
+`atlas.html` is one self-contained file — no build step, no external assets beyond a Google Fonts stylesheet. Serve the folder with any static server (`npx serve`, `python3 -m http.server`) and hand over the URL, or let the repo's pages host serve the committed file. One URL, republished after every data change, never a second copy. If you keep a stable published URL, put it in `META.artifactUrl` so `SYSTEM.md` links to it.
+
+## Pitfalls
+
+- Keep `<!doctype html>` first and `<meta charset="utf-8">` immediately after — otherwise quirks mode and mojibake arrows.
+- The renderer rebuilds its whole scene on every draw: a stray `render()` in a hover handler detaches the element under the cursor and the browser stops synthesising clicks — the map looks perfect in a screenshot while nothing responds.
+- Some in-app browsers render `file://` as a static snapshot; verify via a static server, not from disk.
+- Never delete a question — resolve or mark it dropped, so IDs stay stable.
+- After every decision, grep the outputs for stale words (`pending`, the old model name, the rejected design) — the person reads everything.
+- Large HTML/JS via shell heredocs is brittle; use `write_file` and keep the data block JSON-serializable.
+
+## Verification
+
+- `node <atlas home>/atlas/build.mjs` exits 0 and writes both `SYSTEM.md` and `atlas.html`.
+- Syntax-check the built script (`new Function(js)`), then open the served page in a real browser at ~1280×800; check a first chapter, a middle chapter, the last chapter, an inside view, and the light theme.
+- Click a structure and confirm the panel says **pinned** and offers *Go inside*; click a packet dot and confirm the payload opens.
+- Every structure has `one`, `what`, `how`, a `short` label, a role `kind`, and its questions; ghosts are marked; chapters exist with per-chapter flows; the last chapter is the whole system.
+- `SYSTEM.md` carries the decisions table, the question index with IDs and states, and the "how this file is maintained" footer.
+- Project memory records the atlas URL, docs paths, locked decisions with dates, what the user rejected and why, and the next step.

+The following is the complete skill definition that Hermes loads when this skill is triggered. This is what the agent sees as instructions when the skill is active.
+:::
+
+# PR Lens Skill
+
+PR Lens draws code as visually rich animated diagrams: diffs, architecture, data flows. You describe the diff or codebase as one JSON document (lanes, nodes, edges, ordered flows) and the CLI renders it as animated SVGs. There is no findings lens — PR Lens is a comprehension layer, not a review bot. There is no field for a bug, risk, or security note, and a document that invents one is rejected.
+
+## When to Use
+
+- Asked to diagram, visualise, or explain a code change or a system.
+- A pull request should carry an architecture or data-flow diagram.
+- Keywords: PR Lens, diagram, architecture, data flow, visualise, pull request.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Node.js with `npx` (the CLI runs via `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest`; no install step).
+- `gh` (GitHub CLI) — optional, only for attaching diagrams to PRs.
+- Optional canvas publishing calls the third-party service prlens.dev (see step 4b).
+
+## How to Run
+
+Run all commands with the terminal tool from the repository root.
+
+1. **Read the diff.** When representing a code change: `git diff --find-renames <base>...<head>`. The base is the merge base, not the tip of the base branch. If not expressing a diff, read the code to be visualised.
+
+2. **Write the document** to `.pr-lens/graph.json`, following `references/graph-document.md`. `references/example.graph.json` is a valid reference with three lanes, all four delta states, a hero edge, a seven-step flow, a nested drill-down tree and a six-step walkthrough. Read it before writing your first document — quicker than reading the reference.
+
+3. **Validate, and fix.**
+
+   ```bash
+   npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest validate .pr-lens/graph.json
+   ```
+
+   Fix every failure and run it again. Do not render an invalid document; do not "work around" a failure by deleting the element it names.
+
+4. **Render.**
+
+   ```bash
+   npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest render .pr-lens/graph.json --theme light
+   ```
+
+   Render light by default unless the user requests another theme. The SVGs, the manifest and `drawn.graph.json` land in `.pr-lens/`, which the CLI adds to the repository's .gitignore. Do not commit any of it — these files are rebuilt from the diff on demand. Each SVG is named after its view, theme and content hash; `manifest.json` lists them by lens and view.
+
+4b. **Canvas push — OPTIONAL, opt-in.** Only when the user explicitly asks for a shareable link. This publishes `.pr-lens/drawn.graph.json` to the third-party service prlens.dev:
+
+   ```bash
+   npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest canvas push
+   ```
+
+   It prints three links. Give the user the **view link** (`https://prlens.dev/c/{id}`): the full-screen diagram, every view on one page, no login. The **edit link** (ending in `#w=…`) lets its holder overwrite the canvas — it is a secret: leave it out of the reply unless asked, never paste it anywhere public. The embed link serves the top view as an SVG for a README. Pushing the same file again updates the same canvas, so "rename that node" is: edit, validate, render, push — the link stays the same. If the push fails, say so and tell the user where the local SVGs are and which is the top view.
+
+5. **Attach to a PR, when there is one.** Upstream documents `gh pr create/edit/comment --attach <path>`, but `--attach` arrived in GitHub CLI 2.99 — check `gh --version` first (e.g. gh 2.97 does NOT have it). With gh ≥ 2.99: write the body with a Markdown image `![alt](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/software-development/pr-lens/.pr-lens/<view>.svg)` (an HTML `<img>` is left as written and the file appended at the bottom instead; alt text is the one-line caption a reader without images gets), then repeat `--attach <path>` per referenced diagram:
+
+   ```bash
+   gh pr create --title "…" --body-file .pr-lens/body.md --attach .pr-lens/overview-light-<hash>.svg
+   ```
+
+   Without `--attach`, use a commit-free path:
+   - Upload the SVGs to a gist: `gh gist create .pr-lens/<view>.svg`, then reference the raw gist URL in the PR body/comment, or
+   - Publish via the canvas link (step 4b, with user consent) and link the view URL, or
+   - Note the local `.pr-lens/` path in the PR body so reviewers can rebuild.
+
+   Once published somewhere durable, let the CLI compose the comment markdown:
+
+   ```bash
+   npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest comment \
+     --graph .pr-lens/drawn.graph.json \
+     --manifest .pr-lens/manifest.json \
+     --asset-base-url <where you published the SVGs>
+   ```
+
+   `--graph` takes `drawn.graph.json`, not the document you wrote — the CLI refuses a document its manifest does not describe. Leave out `--asset-base-url` and the markdown points at local paths no reader can fetch. The markdown goes to stdout; posting it is your business.
+
+   Attach the views a reviewer needs and leave the rest in `.pr-lens/`: the top architecture view first, then a data flow if the change has a sequence worth following. Two diagrams usually beat four.
+
+6. **Optional automation:** `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest analyze --base <ref>` does steps 1–2 by asking a provider (Gemini, OpenAI, or any `/chat/completions` endpoint) with a key of your own. That is the only path here that needs one; normally you author the document yourself.
+
+## What makes a document worth reading
+
+- **Include what did not change.** Unchanged neighbours a change touches are the context; mark them `delta: "unchanged"`.
+- **Lanes are the reader's mental model** (a runtime, a tier, a boundary), not the folder tree.
+- **One hero edge**, two at the outside: the connection the change is really about.
+- **Add a flow only when there is a sequence** worth animating. One good flow beats three thin ones.
+- **Attach file refs**: they become the permalinks a reviewer clicks.
+- Architecture views are a C4-inspired decision tree: system context → container → component, each child materially narrower. Skip empty or repetitive levels; keep data-flow views as separate roots; set `defaultOpen: true` on the highest useful architecture view.
+- **Walkthroughs** (2–12 steps, aim 3–7): write one for anything non-trivial. Each step = one change (added/removed/moved), headline change first, overview last. Headings ≤48 chars built from change words; bodies ≤140 chars on behaviour, required. Write for a smart twelve-year-old; no "leverages"/"orchestrates". Keep consecutive steps on the same stage. The walkthrough field needs CLI ≥ 0.4.0 (contract 0.1.1).
+- **Fixing a wrong map:** never edit the generated document — write corrections into `.github/pr-lens.yml` (see `references/config.md`), then validate it: `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest validate .github/pr-lens.yml`. Prefer path globs over `id:` matches.
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+| Command | Purpose |
+| --- | --- |
+| `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest validate .pr-lens/graph.json` | validate the document (also validates `.github/pr-lens.yml`) |
+| `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest render .pr-lens/graph.json --theme light` | render SVGs + manifest into `.pr-lens/` |
+| `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest canvas push` | OPTIONAL: publish to prlens.dev (opt-in only) |
+| `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest comment --graph … --manifest … --asset-base-url …` | compose PR comment markdown to stdout |
+| `npx @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest analyze --base <ref>` | auto-author document via an LLM provider (needs API key) |
+
+Validator failure codes:
+
+| Code | What you did |
+| --- | --- |
+| `BROKEN_REFERENCE` | an edge, flow step, view or walkthrough step names an id you never declared |
+| `INVALID_DOCUMENT` | an invented field; the schemas are strict, unknown keys are rejected |
+| `DUPLICATE_ID` | two nodes, edges or views sharing an id |
+| `UNSUPPORTED_SCHEMA_VERSION` | `schemaVersion` is not the contract version installed |
+
+## Pitfalls
+
+- Six rules are parser-only, not in the JSON Schema (referential integrity, inverted line ranges, disagreeing `self` endpoints, identical patch commits, too many views for a manifest, flow-step focus on the wrong stage) — always run `validate`, structured output alone is not enough.
+- Do not commit anything in `.pr-lens/`; it is regenerated and gitignored by the CLI.
+- The `--attach` gh flag needs gh ≥ 2.99; older gh silently lacks it — check before writing a body around it.
+- The canvas edit link (`#w=…`) is a write credential — never share it unprompted or paste it publicly.
+- A stored map never carries a walkthrough; a walkthrough tells the story of one change.
+- `pr-lens render` reports corrections in `.github/pr-lens.yml` that matched nothing — that is drift worth fixing, not an error.
+
+## Verification
+
+Smoke test (live-verified 2026-09-12 with `@coldtea/pr-lens-cli` via npx, node on Linux):
+
+```bash
+cp references/example.graph.json /tmp/prlens-smoke/ && cd /tmp/prlens-smoke
+npx -y @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest validate example.graph.json
+# ✓ example.graph.json — graph document · 3 lanes, 10 nodes, 13 edges, 1 flow · 6 walkthrough steps
+npx -y @coldtea/pr-lens-cli@latest render example.graph.json --theme light
+# ✓ .pr-lens/manifest.json — 4 SVGs across 4 diagrams
+```
+
+Expect exit 0 on both and four `*-light-<hash>.svg` files plus `manifest.json` and `drawn.graph.json` in `.pr-lens/`.

+:::info
+The following is the complete skill definition that Hermes loads when this skill is triggered. This is what the agent sees as instructions when the skill is active.
+:::
+
+# scrollcraft
+
+Scroll is the only input every visitor already knows. This skill treats it as a
+timeline: the wheel is a scrubber, the page is a film with real text on top,
+and each section behaves differently enough that the visitor keeps going.
+
+**What you produce:** an interview brief, a page grammar, a customer-journey
+map, a feeling curve with one engineered peak, a scroll score, one signature
+move, assets, one real HTML page on a token-driven design floor, and a strip of
+screenshots proving it holds up at every scroll position.
+
+Use for: "scrollytelling", "scroll animation site", "a site where scrolling
+plays a video", "Apple-style landing page", "3D scroll world", "make my brand a
+scroll experience", "this looks like a template", or any request for a site
+that should feel like an experience rather than a document.
+
+## What this is not
+
+It is not "generate a flythrough and drop text on it." That produces one device
+applied to a whole page, recognisable at a glance. Four spine rules:
+
+1. **Variety is the product.** At least four device families, never the same
+   device twice in a row. Read [references/devices.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/devices.md).
+2. **The world is photographic** unless the brand is genuinely illustrated.
+   Clay/low-poly diorama is banned as a default. Read [references/worlds.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/worlds.md).
+3. **No continuous chain** unless the brief is literally "one continuous
+   journey" (then see [references/worldflight.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/worldflight.md)).
+4. **A different world is not a different page.** Structure is a separate axis;
+   decide it deliberately. Read [references/uniqueness.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/uniqueness.md).
+
+## Step 0: The interview
+
+**Always ask the user in chat before building anything.** Real questions, asked
+and answered in the conversation, written down — not a brief inferred from the
+brand name. Eight questions in one pass:
+
+1. **Vibe in three to five words**, plus up to three references from any medium
+   (film, album cover, shop, magazine, game — not "sites you like").
+2. **The scroll journey, section by section, in their words.**
+3. **The energy curve** — where calm, where intense.
+4. **How should someone feel while scrolling, stage by stage, and what is the
+   ONE moment they should remember?** Becomes the feeling curve and the peak.
+   See [references/feel.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/feel.md).
+5. **One thing this site should do that no site they have seen does** — the
+   seed of the signature move.
+6. **How far from premium-minimal?** Offer the range in
+   [references/uniqueness.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/uniqueness.md) §5: brutalist,
+   maximalist, playful, retro, dense, editorial, premium-minimal.
+7. **One unbroken world, or distinct scenes?** The biggest structural fork, and
+   it is their call.
+8. **What assets do they already have?** Footage, photos, product shots, brand
+   kit. "Nothing" is fine and means a fully generated world.
+
+Write the answers verbatim into `<workspace>/builds/<name>/BRIEF.md` (use
+write_file) before any act planning. BRIEF.md must contain the eight answers,
+the feeling curve (one line per act: emotion, then cause), the peak (as the
+sentence a visitor would say to a friend), the completed "It's the site where
+___" sentence, and any authored silence. If the user is genuinely unreachable
+in a fully autonomous run, self-author BRIEF.md, mark it
+`Self-authored, not interviewed`, and say so in the report.
+
+## Bootstrap
+
+Run the preflight rather than checking by hand (it catches a stripped ffmpeg
+that reports missing filters as syntax errors):
+
+```bash
+node <skill>/scripts/doctor.mjs
+node <skill>/scripts/workspace.mjs --ensure   # prints workspace, seeds registry
+```
+
+Workspace resolution order: `SCROLLCRAFT_HOME` env var; nearest
+`.scrollcraft.json` (`{ "workspace": "..." }`) walking up from cwd;
+`<project root>/scrollcraft`. Builds live at `<workspace>/builds/<name>/`, the
+fingerprint registry at `<workspace>/FINGERPRINTS.md` (seeded from
+[templates/FINGERPRINTS.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/templates/FINGERPRINTS.md), starts empty — the gate
+stops you repeating *yourself*).
+
+Copy `engine/scrollcraft.js` and `engine/scrollcraft.css` into the build
+folder. **Never edit the engine per-project.** Theme with tokens; write your
+own markup. Bespoke behaviour is bespoke JS in the page, driven off `--sc-p`
+and your own `data-sc-*` attributes.
+
+## Step 1: The brief, journey first
+
+Ask the subject open, in plain prose. Then ask only what Step 0 did not cover:
+what is this and who is it for; the one sentence the page installs; the one
+next action (one label, used everywhere); what they already have; art
+direction from [references/worlds.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/worlds.md). Then write the
+**journey**: four to seven beats, each a shift in what the visitor knows or
+feels. Beats are the spine; a section serving no beat is cut. Confirm the
+journey with the user before generating assets — assets are the expensive part.
+
+## Step 2: Grammar, gate, then score
+
+Full detail in [references/uniqueness.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/uniqueness.md).
+
+- **Pick a grammar.** Eight, mutually exclusive. Choosing filmic one-shot means
+  saying in the report why the other seven lost. Nav, hero and close follow
+  from the grammar.
+- **Invent the signature move.** One bespoke interaction coded in the page, not
+  a parameter change to a kit device. Interview question 5 is the seed.
+- **Run the fingerprint gate.** The planned build must differ from every row in
+  `<workspace>/FINGERPRINTS.md` on at least 4 of 6 dimensions: grammar, nav
+  treatment, hero device, act-sequence shape, close pattern, signature move.
+  If it fails, change the plan, not the log.
+- **Write the feeling curve before the score table** (method:
+  [references/feel.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/feel.md)). Then assign each beat a device in
+  a written table (beat / device / why).
+
+Checks before building: grammar bans hold; 4+ device families; no device
+twice in a row; at most two `scrub` acts; no two adjacent acts with the same
+feeling; one peak with the largest span; total page length 8–14
+viewport-heights.
+
+## Step 3: Assets
+
+Full pipeline, prompt scaffolds and model notes: [references/assets.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/assets.md).
+
+**Hermes-native paths first:**
+
+- **User-supplied footage and photos** — no key, no spend, a first-class route.
+  Grade and encode them.
+- **The `image_generate` tool** for stills: one style preamble reused verbatim
+  in every prompt is what makes six images look like one shoot. Inspect every
+  asset (vision_analyze) before use; rerolling beats shipping a bad frame.
+
+**Optional upstream path — kie.ai** (vendored verbatim as
+[scripts/kie.mjs](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/scripts/kie.mjs)): photoreal stills and camera-move clips.
+Requires the `KIE_AI_API_KEY` environment variable (export it in your shell;
+there is no bundled env file in this port). Check balance with
+`node <skill>/scripts/kie.mjs probe`; a still costs cents, a 5s clip more.
+
+```bash
+node <skill>/scripts/kie.mjs still "<style preamble>\n\n<scene>" out/01-hero.png --ar 16:9
+node <skill>/scripts/kie.mjs shot  "<camera move>" out/01-hero.png out/01.mp4 --dur 5
+bash  <skill>/scripts/encode.sh out/01.mp4 assets/01.mp4
+bash  <skill>/scripts/encode.sh out/01.mp4 assets/01-m.mp4 mobile
+```
+
+**Encode for scrubbing, not playback.** `encode.sh` sets a dense GOP because
+seeking walks from the previous keyframe; a normal web encode scrubs like mud.
+It also strips audio.
+
+## Step 4: Build the page
+
+Write real HTML — real `<h1>`, real `<p>`, real reading order. The engine reads
+`data-sc-*` attributes off your markup and drives it; it never generates DOM.
+Start from [references/template.html](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/template.html). Device
+patterns: [references/devices.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/devices.md). Spacing, type, depth,
+colour: [references/taste.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/taste.md) — read it before writing
+markup. Theme by overriding tokens, six values and two fonts:
+
+```css
+:root {
+  --sc-canvas: #0A0806;  --sc-surface: #16110E;
+  --sc-ink:    #F5EBDD;  --sc-ink-soft: #A2968A;
+  --sc-accent: #FF5A3D;  --sc-accent-ink: #15110F;
+  --sc-font-display: "Archivo", system-ui, sans-serif;
+  --sc-font-text:    "Geist", system-ui, sans-serif;
+}
+```
+
+## Step 5: Verify by scrolling it
+
+Not optional. Every scroll position is a different frame; failures live between
+the two you looked at. Full procedure: [references/verify.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/verify.md).
+
+```bash
+cd <build project> && npm i playwright-core     # once
+node <skill>/scripts/serve.mjs --root . --port 4500 &
+node <skill>/scripts/shoot.mjs --url http://localhost:4500 --out lab/shots
+node <skill>/scripts/shoot.mjs --url http://localhost:4500 --out lab/mobile --width 390 --height 844
+node <skill>/scripts/shoot.mjs --url http://localhost:4500 --out lab/reduced --reduced-motion
+```
+
+The harness walks each act at six positions, waits for scrub video to settle,
+reports dead scroll, cues that never reach full opacity, and composited
+contrast; it writes a contact sheet. Then read `sheet.png` yourself
+(vision_analyze) — the harness proves a clip advances, not that the page means
+anything. Run the feel check ([references/feel.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/feel.md) §6):
+scroll cold, one word per act, diff against BRIEF.md. Where they disagree the
+page is wrong, not the brief.
+
+A green run does not cover a real phone (video decoder, autoplay policy, Low
+Power Mode). On any reported mobile defect, deploy
+[references/device-diag.html](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/optional-skills/web-development/scrollcraft/references/device-diag.html) beside the site on
+the first round and let the device answer.
+
+## Hard rules (ship-blockers)
+
+No clay diorama default; no "scroll to explore" cues or animated mouse icons;
+no `01 / 06` section counters; at most one eyebrow per three sections; no
+visible em dashes; vary the copy anchor; no device twice in a row; never build
+before the interview; one engineered peak, not zero or three; the close
+resolves instead of fading to a footer; curve before devices; one bespoke
+signature move; 4-of-6 fingerprint clearance against every row; never edit the
+engine; no full-frame dark overlay for contrast (scrim only where text sits);
+no text baked into images; no invented statistics; no `transition: all` or
+animating width/height/top/left (`transform`/`opacity`; `clip-path` for
+wipes); no gradient text or neon glow; no audio on scrub clips; never ship
+without Step 5.
+
+## Output
+
+The build folder including BRIEF.md, then a short report: grammar and why the
+other seven lost, signature move, fingerprint gate result per row, journey,
+feeling curve and peak, feel-check diff, score table, what you generated, what
+you verified with screenshots, and what you could not verify. Append the
+build's row to `<workspace>/FINGERPRINTS.md`.
+
+## Pitfalls
+
+- `scripts/shoot.mjs` needs Playwright (`npm install playwright` or
+  `playwright-core` plus a Chrome install). Hermes' `browser_exec` tool is the
+  lighter alternative for scroll-screenshot verification: serve the build,
+  scroll in steps, capture screenshots, and inspect them yourself.
+- `scripts/kie.mjs` needs `KIE_AI_API_KEY` and paid credit; prefer
+  `image_generate` or user assets when the budget is unclear.
+- `encode.sh` and `doctor.mjs` expect a full ffmpeg build; distro-stripped
+  ffmpeg reports missing filters as command syntax errors — run
+  `scripts/doctor.mjs` first.
+- Upstream script invocations above are copied from upstream docs and
+  unverified by this port beyond `node --check` syntax validation — trust
+  `--help`/source if drifted.
+- The upstream repo ships worked examples and a change log that are not
+  vendored in this port; see the upstream repository if you want them.

+## 事件触发的 Cron 任务 {#event-triggered-cron-jobs}
+
+在路由上设置 `cron_job`，即可在事件到达时触发一个**已有的 cron 任务**——无需按固定周期轮询，也不会启动新的 webhook agent 会话。这让任何定时任务都能变成事件驱动的任务：把原有的定时计划保留为兜底扫描（或设为低频），让 webhook 在事情真正发生的那一刻立即触发它。
+
+
+工作原理：
+
+1. 事件经过与其他路由相同的 HMAC 认证、速率限制、`events`/`filters`/`script` 过滤和幂等去重。
+2. 路由的 `prompt` 模板根据 payload 渲染后，作为**单次运行的临时上下文**注入任务（与 `cronjob(action='run', prompt=...)` 走同一条通道——任务存储的 prompt 永远不会被修改）。
+3. 任务通过与调度器相同的 at-most-once 认领机制触发，因此 webhook 突发流量不会重复触发正在运行的任务，任务自身的投递目标会收到输出。
+
+### 示例：在收到 review 反馈时触发 PR 审查任务
+
+```yaml
+platforms:
+  webhook:
+    enabled: true
+    extra:
+      routes:
+        pr-feedback:
+          events: ["pull_request_review"]
+          secret: "github-webhook-secret"
+          cron_job: "pr-review-sweeper"        # 已有任务的 ID 或名称
+          prompt: |
+            {repository.full_name} 的 PR #{number} 收到了来自
+            {review.user.login} 的新审查反馈：{review.body}
+```
+
+### 通过 CLI
+
+```bash
+hermes webhook subscribe pr-feedback \
+  --events "pull_request_review" \
+  --cron-job "pr-review-sweeper" \
+  --prompt "PR #{number} 收到反馈：{review.body}"
+```
+
+创建订阅时会立即校验任务引用，拼写错误会当场报错。
+
+### 注意事项
+
+- `cron_job` 与 `deliver_only` 互斥（路由同时设置两者时适配器拒绝启动）。cron 任务自行处理投递。
+- `cron_job` 路由会忽略路由级的 `deliver`、`deliver_extra` 和 `skills` 字段——以任务自身的设置为准。
+- 已暂停/已禁用的任务不会被触发；事件会被记录并丢弃。
+- POST 立即返回 `202 Accepted`；任务在后台运行。
+
+---
+
 ## 动态订阅（CLI） {#dynamic-subscriptions}
 
 除了 `config.yaml` 中的静态路由，还可以使用 `hermes webhook` CLI 命令动态创建 webhook 订阅。当 agent 本身需要设置事件驱动触发器时，这尤为有用。
