DX Life's /pray at 1440 kept the pill at the viewport's bottom until the map's bottom came into view: the page
scrolls a container, not the document, so the document-only test saw a full-screen page and kept the fold.
pageScrolls now also walks out from the pill, across shadow roots, for an ancestor scroller whose content is
taller than it; a map wholly below or above the viewport is treated as on a scrolling page; and a lift is
cleared when the pill goes off screen, so a lift set while the map was half visible does not survive into the
next view. check:pin-hint-floor adds the inner-scroller, shadow-crossing and map-below-the-fold fixtures; its
self-test refuses 9 planted defects.
Folds in the review's four points:
(a) check:pg-name-gate plants a row with EXACTLY two far Latin locales, which must
show English, so a rule that needs three fails.
(b) A row with fewer than two Latin names cannot be checked (117 rows), so it now
shows English too. The whole table: 8,172 of 21,419 (38.2%).
(c) The one-reader scan also flags a file that imports the helper but still
indexes rows itself (`.names[`), with negative controls both ways.
(d) The helper documents that callers always pass `english`.
Seven mutants of the helper each fail the gate.
The packet and card-deck title named the selection's zones and countries only.
Since India's states bring people, a selection of states alone had no names, and
reduce() threw "Reduce of empty array with no initial value" at the reader.
selectionTitleNames (data/selection-export.js, pure) adds the states and union
territories that brought people. A province with no table is not named. A
selection that brought nobody (Mizoram or Nagaland alone) gives the keyed
"no people groups to print" instead.
check:batch-selection-export arm A6 tests it on the real served table: Gujarāt
alone is titled "Gujarāt", a state + a country names both, a province beside it is
not named, and Mizoram alone reads the keyed text. Its negative control shows the
old naming is empty and reduce() throws. The call site is pinned in arm C. Four
mutants each fail.
library/utils/peopleGroupName.js (pure) returns a group's name in the reader's
language only when the row's names are transliterations. When two or more of its
Latin-script names (fr pt es tl id de) are far from the English one (bigram Dice
< 0.5), the row was machine-translated as words (Balantak → "Balance",
Balo → "Sac à dos"), and every locale of that group shows English. That is
8,055 of 21,419 rows (37.6%). it and ro have no column and show English; zh
reads zh_CN. A fallback shows the caller's own English name.
check:pg-name-gate (gates:pre) proves it on the real table: the 4 known
translated rows show English in 7 locales, Balangao Bontoc keeps its names,
planted rows are two-sided, the whole-table fallback stays between 30% and 45%,
and no file outside the helper reads pg-names rows (pplr-data-maps is the
exception; the scanner is negative-controlled). Five mutants of the helper each
fail it. No consumer is wired yet.
A sweep brought tracked source to 0 such lines; this gate keeps it there. It scans every tracked text file
except research data, build output and the translation catalogues, and allows only named lines (a file plus
the exact line, with its reason), never a whole file; the list is empty, since the gate builds its own
patterns from parts. gates:pre runs it; gates:post runs its self-test, which plants each class and checks
the per-line allowance.
The Country Posters India section headed "855 people groups · 37
countries", which is untrue: its cards are India's own and one per state
and union territory. sectionItemCountKey (default null: every section
counted with item-count-key, as before) lets a wall answer, per section,
an i18n plural key, or { key, n } to count n rather than the section's
card count, or null to keep the default.
Walls that do not pass it render byte-identical trees before and after
(a differential render of an upg100-style and a country-posters-style
wall). check:poster-wall-host-seams arm K: a named section counts in its
own key and number, an unnamed one keeps the default; it fails with the
prop ignored.
A section head read "<n> people groups · <items>" always, so a wall whose
cards count no people (Poster Design's gallery of templates) showed
"0 people groups · 4 lists" on every head. The total and its " · " now
leave together when the total is 0, the rule the cards already follow with
v-if="item.count". The head is still one string in one interpolation, so a
section with a total renders exactly the text it always did, whitespace
included: a differential render of an upg100-style wall and a
country-posters-style wall, before and after, gives identical trees.
check:poster-wall-host-seams gains arm J (a head with people keeps its
total; one without reads its items alone); the old head line fails it.
The wall intro writes its total in the digits the translated sentence already uses
(countInSentence): ar shows ٢٬١٠٧ beside its own ٢٧ and ٩:١٤, while CLDR's bare
'ar' would have formatted 2,107. Locales whose sentence uses Western digits are
unchanged. The fetching status goes through the same helper.
A people-group load that fails without a catalogue key (the 30 s abort, a dropped
network) now reads as the stall text, "still loading, try again in a moment",
instead of the browser's own English ("signal is aborted without reason"). Keyed
errors keep their own text, and the failed load leaves the cache, so the next Copy
fetches again.
check:upg-count arm E renders the intro through each locale's catalogue and
requires one digit system, with a negative control on the old ar render. Its
separator scan now also reads fr U+202F and ru U+00A0. check:batch-selection-export
arm A5 aborts a real fetch and refuses a real connection; both must read as the
stall text, and the old path must still show the raw message.
Comments in library/ and internal/ that quoted a person, attributed a decision to one, used first person,
named fleet agents or carried private host names now state the same technical fact in neutral words:
poster-render (including the comments it writes into generated posters), packet-render, the poster and
research scripts, PosterWall, DataTable, the legends, the layouts and the gates. The network-policy note
states the policy itself. Behaviour is unchanged: a few printed gate messages and reason labels drop an
agent name, the poster-render integrity pin follows its comment-only edit, and series.json changes only in
its _meta and _why notes. The historical poster design snapshots (library/scripts/posters/snapshots/),
which nothing reads, are removed.
staging-reference-v2.html's header states its design in plain words instead of a dated quote
(nothing reads the file; only file-map.md names it). THIRD-PARTY.md and
reference-universal-props.md no longer name an agent.
Comments, messages and docs only; no check logic changes.
- The role-word gate is renamed check-no-internal-role-nouns (and its baseline fixture). Same
logic: it builds the word from parts so the file does not carry it, and a planted line in
title case and in capitals still fails it while WebDriver and "GPU driver" do not.
- public-hygiene-check: the two role patterns are built from parts (the regexes are byte-
identical), the header loses the forge and date wording, and the prayer comment loses its
decision date. Its output on the tree is identical in normal and --strict modes.
- landing-preconditions, check-no-public-binds, check-published-tree-weight: no fleet tool
name, no "this box", no forge name in comments and messages.
- Removed: check-backlog-refs, check-backlog-status-enum, check-done-evidence,
check-verification-tags and check-dxlife-untouched (they police a private backlog and
workspace), with their scripts, docs, gate-list entries and orphan-baseline entry, and the
committed needs-eyes pages (check-embedded-rtl --emit writes them on demand).
- package.json docs: no agent names. Docs: the stale check mentions and the snapshot
references are gone (the snapshots themselves leave in the studio P commit).
gates:pre: PASS 115, FAIL 0, NOT MEASURED 1 (browser seat).
On a partner home page the map is a block in a scrolling page. The clamp floored the pill at the viewport
fold, so a map whose bottom was below the fold at load had its pill lifted to mid-map, re-set by the settle
timers and resize observers, and left there after a scroll, then dropped. The fold now counts only on a
page that does not scroll (a full-screen pane or leaf, where a phone's browser bar can cover the bottom);
the legend sheet and the licence credit still lift the pill everywhere. The floor is a pure function
(pinHintFloor.js), and check:pin-hint-floor proves both cases; its self-test refuses 5 planted defects.
Every size up to 36x66 prints on one sheet; 66x66 is two 36x66 sheets glued side by side over 6 in, and 60x96
is three 36x60 sheets stacked over 6 in overlaps. 36x48 moves from legacy into the ladder (3x4ft still
resolves to it); 24x36 stays legacy. check:poster-sizes now also refuses a size that is both offered and
legacy, and a glued size other than 66x66 and 60x96; its self-test refuses 10 broken tables.
series.json: a new `indiaState` series, modelled on `country`, so a state poster names itself honestly
("India State Maps", "What is a State Prayer Map?", one sheet for each state and union territory of India,
"which state God has put on their heart"). The country series' text would have called Gujarāt one of the
~170 Country Maps. Approved as the default wording; shown as editable.
check:series-isolation, two blind spots found by adding a third series:
- Shared wording was dropped from only the EARLIER series (sets were mutated while still being compared),
so the later one kept it as a fingerprint and the earlier failed for carrying it. The shared set is now
found on the original sets. Self-test: three series in any order; the old loop fails it.
- The contamination scan never read a series' `poster` block, where a country poster once printed the
UPG-100 side box. It does now. The phrases that NAME country and indiaState are hand-listed, so a
verbatim copy of one's framing into the other is caught even though symmetric dropping treats it as shared.
Self-test 9/9, including both directions of a country/state copy.
countrySheet.js: the seriesFor comment no longer says "map 1 of 0" was printed; it was latent (the map-only
packet page prints no series line, and the India poster is gated), as a rendered check showed.
VerticalTabsLayout, header off: on a phone a 44px bar (a real grid row) replaces the floating corner
circle, with the rail toggle at the inline start and a #phone-end slot at the end; on a desktop a
#rail-end slot sits at the bottom of the rail (it receives `collapsed`). Neither renders with a header
on, so header-on consumers and desktop layouts without a filler are unchanged. The --map-fab-* footprint
is no longer published; its readers fall back to their plain insets.
ShellLanguageMenu fills either slot: the switcher's languages plus the current one, a native select
under a globe face. A pick dispatches one cancelable, composed, bubbling doxa-language-request on the
host element (library/utils/languageRequest.js). A host that cancels keeps the language; otherwise the
menu emits 'switch' and writes ?lang= only on a page the tree generated.
check:shell-header (gates:pre, Vite SSR) asserts where the bar and the rail slot render, the event's
shape and count, cancel and no-cancel, the ?lang= rule and the language list; its self-test (gates:post)
refuses 11 planted defects. check:nav-reachable now presses the bar's toggle.
library/constants/posterSizes.js gains POSTER_LADDER: five portrait sizes keyed WxH in inches, each with the
sheets a printer feeds (named as panelSheets.js planPanels() takes them), whether a photo slot fits, and how
it reaches paper (the browser's print for paper, a print-shop PDF for the rest). Legacy 24x36 and 36x48
still resolve, older names (3x3ft, 5x8ft, letter, a4...) alias to the ladder, and paperFor() picks Letter
or A4 from a locale's region. The existing map-export presets are unchanged.
check:poster-sizes (gates:pre) audits the table: the order matches the ladder, keys are dot-free, every
size is portrait, the sheets glue up to the finished size, photos on exactly the two large sizes, paths,
aliases and the paper fixtures. Its --self-test refuses 8 broken tables.
Its two panes, Styles and Sizes, are independent views of the poster
templates; neither drives the other, so it gets a NO_LINKS entry with
that reason rather than invented links.
The TOK-LITERAL self-test planted a string shaped like a real Mapbox token,
which is itself what the rule forbids and reads as a leaked credential to any
secret scan. The sample is now built at runtime from plainly fake parts
('example', 'not-a-token') in the same pk. + base64url + tail shape, so the
self-test still proves the rule fires, and no token-shaped literal is left in
the tree.
blessPoster.js now plans its 5 x 8 ft sheets, finished size, screen layout, glue band, trim line and sheet
tags through library panelSheets.js instead of its own copy. The print HTML, the screen layout and the plan
are unchanged: hashed for 3 presets and the default in all 11 locales (44 cases), before and after, all
identical; a 0.001 in change to the glue label moves all 44.
check:panel-sheets (gates:pre, headless) pins both geometries (60x96 stacked, 66x66 side by side, one
sheet; glue and bleed):
- the sheets tile the finished poster;
- glue slices tile it, and bleed slices repeat exactly the join;
- a bleed join prints a guide, not a solid band, and a screen preview always shows the red band;
- the Bless 5x8ft takes its bands and marks from the module.
It is two-sided: 4 planted defects are caught, and the Bless arm fails on the old private copy.
check:poster-wall-host-seams gains arm H: a default wall's broken stored
webp retries the tree's own copy before the placeholder. Arm I: a generated
preview that fails shows the placeholder at once. The gate serves embedBase.js
as if from a built tree, because the second base is derived from that URL and
is empty from source, which let a mutant that skipped the retry pass.
previewSrc's observer now uses the wall's own scroller as its root (the
viewport when the wall is embedded and the page scrolls it). A pane wall
scrolls inside .wall, which clips its cards, so with the viewport as root the
200px margin never looked ahead. Arm E asserts the root.
PosterWall states the two limits of previewSrc: a timeout ends the wait, not
the render, and the page cache never revokes the URLs it holds.
A card's thumbnail was always the stored previews/<id>.webp. A gallery of
poster templates drawn from the library has no stored file, and must show a
library change the moment it lands, so the thumbnail can now come from the
host: previewSrc: async (item) => an image URL | null.
Default null keeps the stored webp and creates no observer, so every current
wall is unchanged. When set, a card renders only once it is in view, one
render at a time, cached on the page by instanceId + item id. Until it answers
the card shows its label; null, a throw or no answer within 20 s shows the
existing "preview unavailable" placeholder.
The header-action gate becomes check:poster-wall-host-seams and covers both
seams: arms D to G for previewSrc (default webp and no observer; lazy, one at
a time and the null fallback; the timeout; the cache). Six mutants of the new
code each fail it.
The home link joined Collapse's rule (.vtl-collapse, .vtl-home { … }) so the
two share one box, and the gate only recognised a rule that named
.vtl-collapse alone, so it found no reference and failed on development. It
now reads the reference from any rule whose selector list names
.vtl-collapse as a whole selector (not :hover, -tx or a descendant), and its
self-test gains a poison that moves only that rule's radius.
A template card (Poster Design) carries no people-group count, and the new
branch printed a bare ' UPG ·' before its label. The count and separator now
render only when item.count is set, in the headerAction branch only; the
default toggle is unchanged. check:poster-wall-header-action gains arm C for
it, which fails with the guard removed.
esc() prefixed a single quote to a value starting with = + - @, but OWASP's
formula triggers also include a leading TAB and CR, which a spreadsheet can
strip before reading the = behind them. Every map's CSV export shares this
escaper. The shape gate carried a formula probe but never checked it came
back neutralised; it now does, for =, TAB and CR, by slug.
The sticker on every poster card was hard-wired to "Show on map". A wall with
no map beside it (a gallery of poster templates) needs the same card with a
different action, and a fork of the card would drift from the wall.
headerAction null (the default) renders the existing toggle unchanged: the
same markup, aria-pressed, the is-last highlight and the window event, so
every current wall is untouched. { labelKey, ariaKey } renders a plain button
labelled from those keys that emits 'header-action' with the item and
dispatches no window event.
check:poster-wall-header-action (gates:pre) mounts the real PosterWall
headlessly on a recording renderer and calls the sticker's onClick in both
modes. Four mutants fail it: no seam, a new branch that also dispatches, a
default that emits, and aria-pressed on the new branch.
One more people group moved from Unengaged to Engaged upstream; the total is
still 2107. The maps compute from the live rows and already show the new
split (read on Prayer Progress's engagement legend), no shipping code
hardcodes the totals, and the live endpoint was read independently, so only
this baseline lagged.
documentation/how-to-build-mobile-apps-from-plugins/README.md explains why Deep Research
(doxa-maps-spa, its app preset) is the plugin to wrap first: the seven production maps in one
phone-ready shell, token-free on MapLibre. It then walks the whole path: tools, the wiring check,
one command, what each step does, another plugin as the app, making it your own, and fixes.
The one command needed two small changes; the default app is unchanged:
- internal/set-app-start-page.mjs takes APP_START=<plugin>/<screen>[/<preset>] and opens that page
instead of the UPG-100 list. Unset, it behaves and marks the page exactly as before. A malformed
value, a page missing from the build, or links that would not resolve are refused, as before.
- package.json: phone:from-tree is sync, start page, verify, assemble, install from the committed
tree, with no full rebuild (bun run build refuses without BUILD_ALLOW=1).
phone:deep-research is phone:from-tree with Deep Research as the start page.
how-to.md links the guide, and two of its lines are corrected: webDir is public/dx-maps/, and
apk:debug's first step is the full build, which asks for BUILD_ALLOW=1.
Checked, with no Android tools: the start page written for doxa-maps-spa/doxa-maps-spa/app, then
the app root served and loaded in the shared browser at 390 and 1280. It showed the gallery
element, 15 tabs (the seven maps and the experimental ones) and a drawn map, with 0 console errors
and 0 failed requests. --check passed for APP_START and failed for the default until it was
restored; the default run still writes the UPG-100 page with its original marker. The Gradle and
adb steps are those bun run phone already uses; they were not run here.
The host page of every full-page map (and the Plugin Studio) sized the
element to the viewport in a way that tracks the phone's address bar:
- the built fixed-viewport leaf used position:fixed with inset:0, which
follows the DYNAMIC viewport, so the map and its legend sheet resized
on every scroll that moved the bar;
- the Plugin Studio page and the dev server's leaf and studio pages used
100vh, the LARGE viewport, taller than the view while the bar shows, so
the page itself scrolled by the bar's height and the app seemed to
resize.
All four now use height:100svh (100% first as the fallback where svh is
unknown), anchored top-left, and set --profile-min-h:0 so ProfileLoader's
100dvh floor cannot grow the element when the bar hides. On a desktop svh
equals the viewport, so nothing moves there. Scroll-page leaves (the
cap-4 stacks) are unchanged.
Regenerated the tree: 51 leaf pages and the Plugin Studio page change
only this rule and its comment; no bundle changes.
Point 4 (READ THE WORD) printed Mark 5:1-20 in full at 14px, the longest
and smallest text in the packet. It now prints THE HEAVENLY FATHER'S
HEART: one heading, one framing line and seven short readings (Noah,
Lot, Rahab, the Gerasene, Cornelius, Lydia, the jailer), each a
household the Father saved through one person. The names come from each
locale's block; the addresses stay canonical English in the data and the
book is named in the packet's language, like every other reference
(Genesis and Joshua added to the 11 books tables).
That room goes to the twelve points: body 17 -> 22px, heading 19 -> 24px,
references 14 -> 17px, and 13 -> 16px between points. The page still fits
one sheet in all 11 locales (the tightest, de, ends 59px above the
bottom).
The gates that asserted the full passage (packet-render, packet-browser,
poster-prints) now assert the list: a .p4-heart block with its seven
readings. Rebuilt: my-upg-100-list, country-posters, regions-dashboard,
doxa-research-map, upg-neighbor; the tree and SRI regenerated.
At two posters per row on a phone (a ~162px card) the print row wraps to
three lines, and because it is a sticker pinned over the banner's bottom
edge that grows downward, it hung about 45px below the card's white box.
Each card is now fitted to its own row: a ResizeObserver on every .pfs
writes --pfs-room on its card when the row hangs past the white box (the
part below the banner, plus 8px of daylight, that the 26px bottom padding
does not cover). A row that fits writes 0, so every card that already
contained its row is unchanged.
check:poster-card-fits asserts it: a print row may not end below its own
card (below-card N). Rebuilt: my-upg-100-list, country-posters,
regions-dashboard; the tree and SRI regenerated.
The gate began from keys like 'adm0:IND', so it never ran resolveTerritory
on what the map hands the click handler, and it passed while every tapped
country resolved as a province. Section 4 feeds the resolver three real
tapestry shapes: a country (shapeName + iso3, no listId), an India state
(listId + shapeName + iso3), and a country drawn inside an Asia zone
(zone.adm0).
Two-sided: on the previous resolver it fails three ways (Sudan and Nepal
filed adm1 with null counts); on the fixed one it passes.
The bold header on a poster -- the UPG count and population set large, a
bigger map, and no "Jesus' Strategy to Feed the 5000" / "What is a Prayer List"
columns -- is the SPARSE layout, the "thumbnail-worthy" design. The `posters`
script generates with SPARSE=1, so every stored thumbnail has it. But the env
handed to the generator in the browser carried only FORMAT and POSTER_DATE, so
EVERY sheet drawn at the click -- UPG-100 and country alike -- fell back to the
dense layout.
MEASURED on FINAL (two UPG-100 zones, Northwest and South-Central India): the
thumbnail shows the SPARSE header; the print the reader actually gets shows the
small facts table, both vision columns and a smaller map. That is the reported
"the country poster looks worse than the UPG-100 poster" -- the comparison was a
SPARSE thumbnail against a dense sheet.
(a) posterSheets.js passes SPARSE for every POSTER format and NOT for 'packet'.
That is exactly the split the two build scripts make: `posters` sets
SPARSE=1, `packets` does not. The renderer's formats are 3x4, 3x3, letter and
packet, so 'packet' alone keeps the full layout its pages were built around.
(b) check:poster-browser-equiv's poster case now runs the Node side with
SPARSE=1 as well. It used to compare dense with dense, so it passed while no
reader ever saw that layout on a card. The packet case stays dense on both
sides. PASS: country-npl 909026 bytes on each; asia-india-gujarat (packet)
835047 on each.
The stored UPG-100 thumbnails are untouched by this. What changes is the PRINT,
which now matches them.
Found in the max-effort re-read of 1ab8524cf. countryZone now colours the sheet
from the region, and this gate's zone omitted it -- so it rendered the FALLBACK
teal and logged '[posterSheets] region undefined is not in POSTER_REGIONS' on
every run. The gate still passed, because what it pins is the served generator's
integrity rather than the colour, but it was exercising the path that does not
ship and shouting about it.
Chad is Africa in library/data/country-posters.json. The warn-once is doing
exactly its job here: it found a caller that had not been updated.
From studio's review of 87f10ceda. configDest swallowed a JSON parse error, so with a malformed
vite.doxa-maps-build-config.json (one trailing comma from a hand edit), --if-present read it as "no
destination configured" and exited 0. The build went green and never refreshed the site. The parse
error is now recorded when the file EXISTS. Under --if-present or --from-config the command exits 1
with "build config unreadable: <file>: <error>", even with DOXA_DROPIN=off. A config file that is
absent, or one with no dropin.dest, still skips.
Tested 7 ways:
1. dest configured, host absent: skip, exit 0.
2. host present: 1,208 files copied, exit 0.
3. no dest key: skip, exit 0.
4. no dest key, plain --from-config: exit 1.
5. trailing comma: exit 1, "build config unreadable".
6. trailing comma with DOXA_DROPIN=off: exit 1.
7. no config file: skip, exit 0.
The config was restored byte for byte (cmp).
Found re-reading 2a4c3ddb3. With dropin.dest removed from the config (a site that doesn't use DX Life)
and no DOXA_DROPIN_DEST, the full build's last step printed the usage line and exited 1, after a build
that had passed. The host is optional, so --if-present now skips there as well. Without --if-present a
missing destination is still refused.
Tested: no dest configured with --if-present skips (exit 0); the plain command still exits 1; a configured
but absent host still skips (exit 0). The config was restored byte for byte after the test.
Only the printed percentage rounds. A large list at 0.004% is tens of
thousands of people, which printed as 0 when the total was computed from
the rounded figure; a share below the last printed digit now reads
"<0.01%" beside its real total. check:evangelical-share asserts it.
The page reused the life calendar's grid and counted its shaded boxes in
weeks ("0.61% · 32 weeks"), under a week axis and a year axis, with a lede
calling it "one human life in weeks". On this page a box is an equal share
of the list's PEOPLE, so the same 5,200 boxes are now drawn with no week or
year axis, and the legend states each side in people: how many follow
Jesus and how many do not yet, each with its share (the two percentages
sum to 100 as printed), plus how many people one box stands for. Numbers
are formatted in the reader's locale.
The labels become "Followers of Jesus" / "Not yet following Jesus" and the
lede drops the weeks, in all eleven languages; the served strings file is
re-pinned. check:evangelical-share asserted the weeks figure; it now
asserts the people totals, the bare percentage and the absence of weeks
and axes, with the life page (which keeps its axes) as the negative
control. check:packet-variants found the grid by an exact class string
and now matches the class prefix.
The Deep Research page publishes the rail as Dashboards (Big Picture, Simple Research, Regions),
Prayer Mobilization (Prayer Progress, UPG-100 List), Gospel Research (Cities with Internet, Gospel
Resources), then the Experimental folder. Only the Prayer Mobilization pair moves. Big Picture now
says "desktop only" on every width, not only once a phone has disabled it.
check:spa-tab-order asserted the old four-name order with UPG-100 first; it now asserts all seven
published rows in order (still relative, with tab 1 positional). It needs a browser: rega runs it.
Three defects on country-map/country-map, which is production -- DX Life's
country pages. Found by auditing the element rather than from a report.
1. ANY profile-config change refetched all 2,106 records. The watch getter
returned a NEW ARRAY literal, and Vue compares a watch value with Object.is,
so a fresh array always reads as changed; both computeds read the injected
cfg, so the effect re-ran on every config change and the callback then fired
unconditionally. MEASURED with real Vue: flipping isDark refetched the whole
endpoint and redrew the map, and so did a host adding pinHint. A joined
STRING compares by value, so only a real language or country change refetches
-- which must still refetch, because the API localises the names.
This was latent waste until the composite re-forward made config writes
routine. It is now on every upstream locale switch, so the two changes are
complementary rather than independent.
2. A SLOW EARLIER RESPONSE OVERWROTE A NEWER ONE. loadPoints is async and had no
sequencing at all -- 0 abort or generation tokens in the file -- so two runs
could be in flight and the one that STARTED first could FINISH last. Both
assigned points, so the map showed the previous country's pins with no error
and nothing for the reader to notice. Every run now takes a ticket and a stale
ticket writes nothing: not the points, not loadFailed, not the spinner the
current run is still using. fetch is left to complete rather than aborted,
because the response is cached for the next switch back.
3. `loading` WAS WRITE-ONLY: assigned in three places and read in none, zero
template references. A reader on a country page waited on an empty map -- no
outline, no pins, no message -- which is indistinguishable from a country that
genuinely has no people groups, and this element fetches the whole list before
it can draw one pin. "Loading results..." was already in the catalogue in all
eleven locales, so saying so cost no new string and no parity debt.
check:country-map-refetch guards all three. It drives the REAL reactive chain
with real Vue and takes the watch key expression OUT OF THE SHIPPED SFC, because
bug 1 is entirely a question of what Vue considers changed and is invisible to
any test that fakes reactivity or re-types the watch.
Mutation-tested, 5 mutations, all caught by name. The first version of the gate
MISSED one: a bare /if \(!current\(\)\) return/ grep matched the guard in the
catch block, so removing only the guard before the points write still passed.
The assertions are positional now -- the guard must sit immediately before the
assignment it protects -- and the catch guard is asserted separately. That hole
existed because the behavioural half of the test reproduced the guard's shape
inside the gate instead of reading the component, which is the self-consistent
oracle this repo's other geometry gate explicitly warns against.
Registered in scripts and gates:pre, verified by re-parsing: one key, 107
checks. Bundle rebuilt (BUNDLE=country-map), then tree, then fix:sri.
- research-map.vue's openPacket read and wrote _packetBusy, a name 8ab3dc0f5 replaced with the
reactive packetBusy ref. Reading an undeclared name throws, so the packet export threw a
ReferenceError on every click, in doxa-research-map and in research-map-plus-grid, the production
map that compiles it. It uses packetBusy.value now (check:no-free-identifiers).
- check:list-prop-unit and check:optional-t-equivalence read every entry of library/i18n/locales as
a locale, and the folder has held a README.md since bba33e783. They read locale FOLDERS now.
- people-groups-grid's regions-look instance previewed two props (filters-toggle, backdrop) of a grid
merge that is not on development, so the page showed nothing different and
check:instance-config-keys failed. It returns with that merge.
`bun run build` now ends with `sync-dropin --from-config --if-present`. It copies public/dx-maps into the
ONE configured host path (vite.doxa-maps-build-config.json dropin.dest, default ../doxa-life/public, or
DOXA_DROPIN_DEST). No site at that path: it prints "skipped" and exits 0. Nothing else on the filesystem
is searched for repos or sites. DOXA_DROPIN=off skips it even when the site is there. Without
--if-present, a missing host is still an error, as before.
Tested: no host skips (exit 0); a host gets 1,209 files; DOXA_DROPIN=off copies nothing; the plain
command still refuses a missing host. The container's /cdn build (build-cdn.sh) does not run this chain.
On this box ../doxa-life does not exist beside the doxa-maps checkouts (DX Life lives in root-dx-life), so the step is a no-op for the fleet's builds.
- check:no-orphan-gates stopped at internal/check-grid-merge-defaults.mjs, which had no script. It
asserts defaults of three grid props that are not on development (the grid merge has not landed),
so it is registered ON DEMAND with that reason, not chained red. Past that first arm, its chain arm
found check:grid-image-loading and check:retry-fetch run by no chain; both depend only on code and
pass in under 300 ms, so they join gates:pre.
- A tracked vite.config.js.timestamp-*.mjs (395 KB, eight absolute paths) failed check:no-abs-paths.
Removed, and ignored at the source: vite writes one beside its config while it bundles it.
- check:library-index: documentation/reference-library-index.md regenerated for retryFetch.js.
- run-parallel printed a failed step's output only with --verbose: the unbraced else bound to the
inner if. Braced; a failing step now prints why.
- The Pages workflow ran bun run build without BUILD_ALLOW=1, so build-lock refused it with exit 75
and the workflow ran no gate at all. A CI runner is the only builder on its machine; it opts in.
sr asked to adopt usePaneConfig for research-map-plus-grid rather than write a
second fix, and found the one shape it did not cover: people-groups-grid takes
its filters as THREE separate attributes (wagf-region, religion-family,
primary-language) instead of one profile-config blob, so that composite has one
pane of each kind. The helper hardcoded 'profile-config' and gave the grid
nothing.
registerAttrs is the sibling for that shape. It shares the same entries list,
the same watchEffect, the same prune and the same write-only-on-change -- one
mechanism for all four composites rather than a fork per adopter. A helper with
a single caller has not been shown to generalise at all; this is the second
shape that showed it.
Two decisions worth recording. Each attribute is compared and written
independently, so a getter whose region changed does not rewrite the two that
did not and re-trigger the child. And the attribute NAME LIST is pinned at
registration: a later getter that omits a key CLEARS that attribute rather than
leaving a stale filter silently narrowing the grid, which is the same class of
lie as the frozen config this helper exists to fix.
The gate runs the shipped helper with real Vue, not a re-typed copy, because the
dependency-tracking hole found in review is invisible to any test that fakes
reactivity. 28 cases over both shapes. Its subject is the measurement on
development 92ca8b6e6: the outer element reached locale ar by +1.5s while every
nested host carried NO locale key at boot and still none at +15s, across four
composites -- so case 1b asserts that an ABSENT key is still a change.
Case 7 is the adopter's property rather than mine: a re-forward triggered by a
LOCALE change must produce the SAME primary-language string. gridLanguage() can
fall back to a display label, and the grid compares whole normalised values, so
a name fetched in one language matches no row in another. It does not bite today
because the surviving fallback is a value the grid itself produced, but the gate
asserts the class, not today's instance.
Mutation-tested, 7 mutations, all caught: plain array, no write-on-change guard,
skip-instead-of-prune, escaping getter throw, no per-attribute compare, omitted
key left stale, and the label-instead-of-code regression. The first two crashed
rather than naming a case, so cfgOf is null-safe now -- a gate that dies reports
"something went wrong" instead of naming the pane that stopped following.
Registered in package.json scripts and in gates:pre, verified by re-parsing the

useShadowStyles keys its <style> by the label and overwrites an existing
tag with the same key, so two components sharing a label keep only the
last one's CSS in a shared shadow root. The regions list lost its sheet
this way to the region card, which had kept the list's label when it was
extracted.
check:shadow-style-labels-unique (gates:pre) fails any label two calls
share, globally rather than per shadow root, so a copied or forked
component is caught when it is copied. It reads the real parsers,
classifies every reference to the function (a rebinding, .call, a
re-export or a namespace import fails instead of hiding a call),
cross-checks the AST against the token stream, and covers the other
ways two calls share a key: unlabelled calls under the dev server's
per-component key, and a fixed label over CSS that varies per caller.
countries-map.vue, a fork of research-map.vue, carried the same label;
it is now 'countries-map', with the country-posters bundle rebuilt and
the tree regenerated. The composable's JSDoc called the label a
debugging name; it now says it is the key.
The same-origin engine copy collided with the CDN preloads that landed meanwhile: map
leaves now preload https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/.../maplibre-gl.js (leaf hints), and composite
snippets preload the same URL. With the engine loaded from <tree>/vendor/ instead, those
preloads would never be reused and every map page would download the engine twice.
Re-pointing the preloads is design work, which the handoff does not start. The change
stays in history (fc7259e06, studio/vendor-maplibre 275cdc807), and it belongs to the
HANDOFF-BRANCHES-RECORDED-AS-MERGED-WITHOUT-THEIR-CONTENT card.
The gate hashed each component's entire emitted CSS, so any unrelated style change
in these four files (Regions giving three :host rules position:relative) failed it,
and could pass only by re-baselining a guard that exists to prove something else.
It now hashes what library/styles/portedGlobals.js emits, found in the executed CSS:
each cyrillicHeading and strongMedium rule with the selectors in front of it, and
each scrollbar-gutter declaration with its rule's selector.
Re-baselined on the tree the old gate passed on. Proven both ways: re-scoping
GoalCard's strong rule, changing the module's Cyrillic letter-spacing and dropping
a file's ported rules each fail it; --write refuses to baseline an empty block.
UNVERIFIED: carried into the handoff without a browser run on this base.
MapLibre GL came from cdn.jsdelivr.net: a second origin to connect to before a
map could start. generate-tree now copies the pinned maplibre-gl JS and CSS from
node_modules into <tree>/vendor/maplibre-gl@5.24.0/ and stops the build if their
bytes do not match the integrity pin. A built bundle loads the engine from its
own tree with that same pin, one cached copy for every bundle, and falls back to
jsdelivr if the copy is missing. Mapbox GL stays on api.mapbox.com.
UNVERIFIED: written, not yet run end to end; the handoff stopped it here.
The rebuild runs in the working tree, so it can read what no commit carries: an
untracked locale a glob picks up, a VITE_* key from an untracked root .env that
the code reads (apiBaseUrl.js reads VITE_API_BASE_URL), a build env var such as
DOXA_QA. Bytes built from those prove nothing about freshness, and the landing
precondition caches a PASS per tree id. Build env vars are now scrubbed from each
rebuild; vite.config.js writes down every file a build read when DOXA_BUILD_INPUTS
is set (only this gate sets it); a bundle whose rebuild read an untracked file or
such a key is NOT MEASURED (exit 75), naming the files.
Measured before the stop: an untracked .env.local with an unreferenced VITE_ key
leaves all-people-groups byte-identical (cf536c63), so only keys the code reads
are held against a bundle.

Ported from rega's snipgate and mbxcheck probes (card GATE-EVERY-PUBLISHED-SNIPPET-DRAWS-A-MAP). Two scripts so the keyless arm never waits on a token: check:snippets-draw pastes each production embed.script and requires a MapLibre map to draw (a hooked instance with its style loaded via a setter trap on the engine global, a sized canvas, tiles 2xx, no failure note, 0 page errors); check:snippets-draw:mapbox does the same over embed.scriptMapbox with only the token filled from MAP_TOKEN, NOT MEASURED without one and never printing it. Composites that open on a list (regions-mfe, upg-100-mfe) are pressed to their map view under the settle rule first, since a hidden pane still draws a canvas. The browser slot is checked before any server starts, and the tree server is spawned --exit-with-parent. Registered and declared on demand until rega's first run; it joins verify-browser-all after.
On 2026-09-29, 41 serve-strict processes had outlived the gates that started them: 279 MB resident,
the oldest 5.3 days, spread across eight worktrees. A gate that crashes, is killed, or is refused by the
browser-slot guard's process.exit cannot run its own srv.kill(), and _serve-reaped's handlers cover
signals and normal exit but not a SIGKILLed parent.
serve-strict takes --exit-with-parent: it records the pid that started it and exits within 2 s once
that process is gone. Opt-in, so a server someone deliberately left running is never taken down.
Every internal/ gate and tool that spawns it now passes the flag (14 files, plus _serve-reaped, the
shared helper). Proven: a parent that spawns the server with the flag and exits abruptly (as the
guard does) leaves it alive for a moment and gone within 3 s.
The orphans already running belong to other worktrees' runs and are left to their owners; plugin-local
scripts that spawn serve-strict should pass the flag too.
Seven Driver citations came back with the merged branches. Each keeps its
engineering reason and its date, and loses the speaker: the overlap report, the
poster's legend rule, the network-change defect, the chart's provenance.
check:plural-forms crashed rather than failed. It built its locale list by
listing the catalogue directory, so a README.md moved in beside the locale
folders became a 'locale', passed the exists check because a file does exist,
and crashed readdirSync on a non-directory. It now filters to directories. The
gate on development has the same line and only survives because that README is
not there yet -- so this is a fix for development, not a merge artefact.
Both found by running the full 103-gate chain; the shortened chain the merge
produced ran neither.
The consolidation brought back two Driver citations from older branches that
the reference sweep had already cleared from development. Both keep their
engineering reason and lose the speaker: a gate's rationale for existing, and
the mechanism of the print collapse.
Caught by check:no-new-driver-references, which is the point of running the
full chain rather than the seven gates the merged package.json had left.
dx-shepherd/rega: both production composites should get hints, but 37/27 showed
only regions-mfe was reclassified. research-map-plus-grid was still bare: it
composes doxa-research-map (74 engine refs) but its OWN bundle has 0, so keying
on the own-bundle signal alone missed it.
builtBundleLoadsEngine now also scans the bundles a leaf `composes`, resolving a
composes entry that names its child by element TAG (stack-demo composes
"research-dashboard-map", bundle "research-dashboard") through an
element→bundle map built from the scanned bundles. So a composite is hinted
when its own bundle OR any composed child's bundle loads an engine; big-picture
(composes only non-maps) stays out.
Result: both production composites hinted (regions-mfe via own bundle,
research-map-plus-grid via its child), and stack-demo too (it composes a map).
check:leaf-hints mirrors the same tag→bundle resolution from the manifest, so
gate and generator can't drift: PASS 41 hinted / 23 bare. Poison-tested the
composes-child case (stripped → fails) and the pure-non-map case (big-picture
given a hint → fails). Also carries the comment reword from the token-ladder
correction across every hinted leaf.
Correction (dx-shepherd 2026-09-29, from regions executing the shipping
resolver, confirmed by rega's A9NET on the wire): useMapProvider's default is
MapLibre unless provider is EXPLICITLY 'mapbox'; a baked token or a tokenUrl
does NOT select Mapbox any more. rega measured all 8 auto leaves — which carry
a pray.doxa.life data base — loading MapLibre from jsdelivr cold.
engineFor now returns 'mapbox' only for provider:'mapbox', else 'maplibre',
ignoring bakedToken/tokenUrl. And the engine preload is emitted unless the leaf
already has a static engine <script> — which only a provider:'maplibre' leaf
does; a provider:'mapbox' leaf emits no static tag (the Mapbox static tags were
removed 2026-09-25), so it now correctly gets a preload too.
No tree change: every production leaf is 'auto', and the old code also resolved
those to MapLibre (tokenUrl is empty, so hasEndpoint was false), so the built
hints were already jsdelivr+openfreemap. This makes the logic correct by reason
rather than by the config happening to be empty. check:leaf-hints PASS 37/27.
rega's A9NET run found two production composite tabs — regions-dashboard/
regions-mfe and research-map-plus-grid — getting NO hints, because my first
cut gated on the leaf's isMap flag and both are isMap:false composites that
mount a map child and load the engine at runtime. Same trap the
check:leaf-engine-per-provider isMap gate fell into.
The gate now keys on whether the leaf's OWN page loads a map engine: a real
map leaf (isMap), OR a cap-4 nested-elements-mfe composite whose BUILT bundle
references an engine (builtBundleLoadsEngine). It excludes a cap-5
nested-mfe-spa shell (maps are iframe children), a genuinely map-less
composite (big-picture, stack-demo: 0 engine refs), and a plain non-map leaf
sharing a bundle with a map (connectivity-list). regions-mfe (33 engine refs)
is now hinted; research-map-plus-grid is not — its own bundle has 0 refs, the
engine loads in a lazily-fetched child (recorded gap; the deeper cause is the
upstream isMap classifier mislabelling these composites, which composes-by-tag
where the child .vue filename differs).
check:leaf-hints rebuilt to the same rule, read from the manifest (profile
type + isMap) and the built bundle, so gate and generator cannot drift. PASS
37 hinted / 27 bare; both new poisons bite (composite stripped of hints;
non-map leaf in a map bundle given a hint).
A cold map ran serially: leaf HTML, then the bundle (250-470 KiB gz, parsed),
then only the engine (from cdn.jsdelivr.net or api.mapbox.com), then the style
host, tiles, and data. Four origins discovered one after another, none
pre-connected. That waterfall is the shape behind A9's 3-5 s cold map.
generate-tree now emits, in each MAP leaf's <head>, a preconnect for the
engine origin, the style host and the data origin, and -- only on the 'auto'
leaf, which carries no engine <script> today -- a preload of the engine, so
DNS/TLS and the engine download start alongside the bundle instead of after
it. A non-map leaf (grid/card/chart-table/app-shell/composite) gets nothing.
The engine is decided at build time from the SAME inputs the runtime ladder
reads (profile-config.provider, then a baked token or a token endpoint; 'auto'
with no token path is MapLibre keyless), so the hint and the ladder cannot
disagree. Every URL, integrity and crossorigin comes from
library/constants/cdn.js, so a preload cannot drift from ensureEngineScript's
tag. The one case a static hint cannot foresee -- an explicit ?provider= or
window.MAP_PROVIDER overriding the build default at runtime -- costs one unused
preconnect.
New gate check:leaf-hints (gates:post): a map leaf without hints fails, a
non-map leaf carrying a map-engine hint fails, and a hint origin must be one
the code uses. PASS: 36 map leaves carry hints, 28 non-map leaves carry none.
Poison-tested both sides.
Unlanded (dx-base/a9-leaf-hints); the bundled-vs-shared-vs-today trade-off
report and any landing wait on rega's timing and regions' tiles.
verify-browser-all's rule is that every gate listed there was run before it was
listed, so this waited for a real run rather than being registered on the
strength of the code reading correctly.
Measured, on the browser seat: the positive arm PASSES 9/9, and the mutation arm
-- the maplibre selector inside bottomControlInset broken to a name that matches
nothing -- FAILS on cases 1 and 5, the two whose pages carry only a maplibre
attribution. Cases 2, 3, 6 and 7 pass under the mutation by design: they assert
the inset is 0, so a selector that stops matching cannot make them fail. They
guard the opposite error, reserving space that is not there.
Registered in all three places: the script, its //scripts description, and
verify-browser-all's list. Deliberately NOT in gates:pre -- every assertion rests
on getBoundingClientRect, so it needs a browser and exits 75 NOT MEASURED
without a slot, which is never a pass.
check:popup-pan-controls proves the ARITHMETIC: given a band height, the pan
clears it. Nothing proves the band height is real. If bottomControlInset returns
0 -- a selector typo, an engine renaming its control classes, a control moving
outside the container -- then panPlanFor is handed bottomInset 0, behaves exactly
as it did before the fix, and check:popup-pan-controls still passes every case
because its arithmetic is still correct. The bug would be back with both gates
green. That is the failure this guards.
Seven cases against a real DOM, running the SHIPPED bottomControlInset read out
of the SFC (it is not exported), never a re-typed copy: a visible attribution
reserves a band EQUAL to what the DOM independently says, not merely non-zero,
which a stub returning 1 would satisfy; no controls reserves exactly 0; a
zero-sized control reserves nothing, since counting it would reserve the whole
map and refuse every popup; the taller of two corners wins, because the pin hint
is bottom-left while the attribution is bottom-right; a wrapped attribution
reserves more than one line, which is what a hard-coded constant gets wrong at
390; a control outside the container is ignored; a null container returns 0
rather than throwing.
It needs a real browser: every assertion rests on getBoundingClientRect, and no
DOM library here computes layout, so a headless stand-in would return zeros and
pass vacuously.

Its population was a hand list of 19 names, and it had drifted: the PRODUCTION country-map was never on
it, so its LIST-FETCH (the header's list prop never applied) passed unseen, and big-picture fetched the
list correctly with nothing to catch a regression. The population is now every plugin-designs/<b>/
with an index.js, minus an EXCLUDED map with a reason per entry (empty today), so a new bundle is
measured the day it lands: 28 bundles instead of 19.
Two fail-open paths now fail. `--only <name>` naming no measured bundle printed "PASS: 0 bundles"; it
exits 2 and lists what is measured. A listed bundle whose folder moved was skipped by an existsSync;
the population is derived from the folders, and an EXCLUDED entry naming no bundle is a stale decision
and also exits 2.
Measured over the whole tree, only two bypasses surfaced. country-map's LIST-FETCH is fixed by regions'
commit just before this one (same round, as it must be: this alone goes red). demo-map's LIST-DSM gets a
narrow ALLOW with its reason: it is scaffolding that demonstrates the raw DataSourceManager path, off
both reader shelves, and its other props are still measured. PASS: 28 bundles, 9 self-tested rules.
The file walk read internal/ only, and the chain arm counts package.json NAMES, so a plugin-local
check-*.mjs that nobody registered was invisible to both: on 2026-09-29 six were run by nothing
(dx-shepherd's census; exp's four have since been registered). Every tracked gate-shaped file under
plugin-designs/ or library/ must now be run by PATH from a script or another file's code, carry
@one-shot, or sit in the shrink-only `files` baseline for its owner.
Two rules keep it honest. Comments are stripped before searching, since a file mentioned in prose is
not run by it. And a basename counts only where no other gate file shares it:
library/scripts/research/verify-map-paint.mjs (199 lines, run by nothing) shares its name with
internal/verify-map-paint.mjs (342 lines, what verify:map-paint runs), so a name match let one file's
registration vouch for the other. Self-tested on planted cases (unregistered, comment-only, shared
basename). On the real tree it finds 4, now baselined for their owners:
library/scripts/research/verify-map-paint.mjs likely a stale copy
plugin-designs/doxa-research-map/scripts/check-reduced-motion-jumps.mjs
plugin-designs/gospel-resources/scripts/verify-translator-org-links.mjs a data tool? @one-shot or register
plugin-designs/research-map-plus-grid/scripts/check-ui-strings-have-keys.mjs
The chain arm's writer now keeps every key of the shared baseline file.
ApproxPinNote moved from useOptionalT to useOptionalI18n (which wraps it) so its formatList names follow the sentence's own locale. The per-site register still asserted the old helper and failed. The row now names useOptionalI18n, as SemanticTreeLegend, PosterWall and all-people-groups already do, and still asserts the site passes its own APPROX_FALLBACK.
The popup auto-pan had no gate. Its founding bug was invisible to the obvious
one: measured at 390 on a 366x732 map, the pan fitted the popup inside the
container, the cut really was zero, and a real click on Full Profile still did
nothing, because the top element at the button's centre was
div.maplibregl-ctrl-attrib-inner on one pin and span.pin-hint-pill on the other.
Two pins that looked fixed and were not.
So this asserts the property that matters -- where the popup ENDS UP relative to
the band that takes the click -- rather than whether it was clipped.
It runs the SHIPPED panPlanFor, read out of the SFC with new Function because it
is not exported, the same way check:optional-t-equivalence reaches useOptionalT.
A re-typed copy of the arithmetic would pass forever while the component drifted,
which is the one failure a geometry gate must not have. POPUP_OFFSET is read from
the source too rather than assumed.
Each case states the resulting geometry independently instead of re-deriving the
expected number from the same formula: a self-consistent oracle cannot see an
error that shifts both sides, which is how a 12px offset hid here once already.
The band is measured at runtime, never hard-coded, so the rule is swept across
0-120px rather than pinned to one number -- 120 is far beyond anything observed
and is there to prove the rule, not the value. Also swept across every width the
component renders at, since below 768px the container is 2x width.
Mutation-tested three ways, each failing the case written for it: ignoring
bottomInset (the pre-fix behaviour) fails 15 cases; reserving only half the band
fails; dropping the Math.max clamp fails exactly the negative-inset case.
24 cases, registered in all three places, verified by re-reading the parsed file.
PocketBase's link is /_/#/pbinstall/<token> (two l's). The forward rule matched \bpbinstal\b, which cannot match 'pbinstall', so the terminal showed 'Launch the URL below' with no URL below it (repo, testing live with PocketBase 0.40.4). The rule is now pbinstall?, tested on the line as PocketBase prints it rather than on a guessed spelling: the instruction, the URL and the CLI alternative are shown, the banner and dashboard URL stay quiet.
check:approx-pin-note server-renders ApproxPinNote in Node, and it crashed: with no locale argument
and no runtime locale, formatList fell through to detectLocale(), which reads `document`. The page
lookup is now a guarded last resort. ApproxPinNote also passes its sentence's own locale (the
host's vue-i18n when installed, else '' so the runtime/page chain applies), so a host with its own
i18n can never get an Arabic sentence with a list in another language.
The gate now expects the new English ("Koraga and Maila", the list grammar this change exists for)
and adds the Arabic case: two names joined with و, never an English comma inside Arabic prose.
Poisoned by putting join(', ') back, both of those cases fail; restored, it passes.
With the backend's output going to .pb/logs, PocketBase's one-time 'create your first superuser' link and its command-line alternative went only to the log, so the HOWTO's admin screen at /api/pb/_/ was unusable on a fresh .pb without knowing to look there (repo found it testing the change live). Those lines are a step a person must take, so they are forwarded like errors and 'address already in use'. The banner and URLs stay quiet. Tested against the regex read from the source.
PocketBase prints about 230 lines of startup SQL, and the dev plugin forwarded every line to the
terminal, so Vite's "Local:" address scrolled out of view right after it appeared. The fourth fresh
reader of the README saw it happen.
Each dev backend's output now goes whole to .pb/logs/<name>.log (gitignored), and the terminal gets
only the lines a person must act on: errors, warnings, panics, and "address already in use", the
line the README and HOWTO tell a reader to watch for before setting DX_PB_PORT. The started line
names the log file. Tested against representative lines (in use, WARN, panic shown; SQL and the
banner quiet). The live check rides the next fresh-reader run.
Two production maps paint the doxa-regions layers directly -- 35
setPaintProperty('regions-fill'|'regions-border') calls between them, 10 in one
file and 25 in the other. Twenty-one pass their value through a one-line helper
that wraps it in the same ['case', ['has','iso_3166_1_alpha_3'], v, v]
expression, and each map defined its OWN copy of that helper while already
passing it into the library composable that paints with it. The library owned
the paint logic and not the expression, so the two copies could be edited apart
and the same "idle" would render differently on the two maps, with nothing
failing. No existing check covers this: the nearest one reads a different
component entirely.
The gate asserts the idle paint is single-sourced: the library exports the
helper, neither map keeps a local definition, and neither inlines the
expression. It deliberately does NOT require all 35 writes to route through the
library. The raw multi-line writes are highlight states and outline resets that
differ by design and by map; demanding uniformity there would make this red on
the day it was written, which is how a gate earns being ignored. It also does
not assert how OFTEN each map repaints -- one repaints the idle state more
than the other and has a dynamic call the other lacks. That is a real
difference in when, and flattening it is how a map goes blank. This checks that
the maps agree on what idle looks like, never on how often they say it.
Two-sided. Poisoning it un-exports the library helper and re-inlines a local
copy in a consumer; three assertions flip from ok to FAIL, each catching its
own planted regression, and the run exits 1.
Registered but NOT chained yet: it is legitimately red until the second map
adopts the library helper, and chaining a red gate would break the shared run
for everyone else. It joins the chain with that change.
Building it found a third copy nobody had counted, under a different name, and
two bugs in the gate's own first draft: a block-comment stripper that ate the
declarations it was meant to find (so every single-source assertion passed
while both files plainly defined the helper), and an exemption for lines
mentioning the helper, which hid a one-line definition that mentions it. Both
were caught by the rule that a gate must fail when poisoned.
Registering a check that no chain runs turns the orphan guard red: it fails any
gate-shaped script that nothing reaches and nobody declared. That guard is
right, and it caught this the round after it was built -- "registered but not
chained" is precisely the state it exists to force into the open, and it was
the state this branch was in.
The gate cannot be chained yet without holding the shared run red over another
plugin owner's unlanded work: it asserts the regions idle paint has one source,
and only one of the two maps has adopted the library export so far. So declare
it on demand with the reason, in the file that requires one.
The entry is temporary and says so. It is deleted in the same landing that
chains the gate, once the second map's half lands.
Verified the declaration satisfies the guard rather than silences it: blanking
the reason makes the guard fail again, naming this entry and the file it is in.

check:poster-browser-equiv is chained in gates:pre and exited 75 NOT MEASURED
every run. Its input, out/_records.json, is gitignored and written only by
generate.mjs against a live API, so on CI and on any box without credentials the
gate never looked at anything. The runner reported that honestly rather than as
a pass, but an identical NOT MEASURED every run is indistinguishable from an
unwired gate -- and this is the gate that proves a sheet generated in the browser
is byte-identical to the one Node writes.
An equivalence check needs the SAME input on both sides, not fresh input, so a
committed fixture loses nothing it was measuring. The fixture is the 124 public
records the two arms actually consume: Nepal's 34 for the country arm, and the
90 slugs the Gujarat zone selects for the zone arm. Same fields the served maps
show; no other data.
Verified equivalent to the full 2,106-record cache: identical zone pins in the
same order, identical Nepal set, count 90, pop 3,164,770, series {2209, 28, 1}.
Record ORDER is load-bearing -- it drives draw and label order -- so the fixture
keeps the cache's order. A first cut sorted it: every aggregate matched and the
pin SET matched, while the order differed. Sorting a fixture would have quietly
changed the sheet it produces.
generate.mjs gains RECORDS_FILE so a caller can name the offline input instead of
only the API-written cache. It still fails closed without an API when no offline
file is given. The gate passes it the very file the browser arm read, so both
sides are fed the same records by construction.
The gate now says which input it measured, because the full cache widens coverage
to all 175 countries where it exists and the fixture is the floor everywhere else.
Two-sided, on this tree: with the fixture it PASSES byte-identical on both arms
(834,174 and 921,522 bytes). Dropping the province boundaries at
posterSheets.js:206 -- the defect this gate's header records, where a country
beside India or China printed without them -- makes the country arm 251,576
against Node's 921,522 and the gate exits 1. Restored, it passes again.
research-map-plus-grid and regions-mfe draw a map through a child element, so their isMap is false,
and their published snippets had no engine preload and no scriptMapbox. A pasted composite still
draws on Mapbox given provider "mapbox" and a token (measured), so this is the snippet's
convenience, not a broken map.
generate-tree now decides after every profile's isMap is known: a composite (nested-elements-mfe)
whose OWN composes reach a map profile gets the map form of the default snippet and the Mapbox
variant. It reads the profile's own composes, never the bundle's hoisted list, which the bundle's
plain leaves (charts, data-tables, the poster wall) share while drawing nothing. The gallery shell
is left out until its passing of provider to its tabs is measured. Regenerated: exactly those two
profiles' embed changes, in both manifests; nothing internal leaks into the output.
check:snippet-engine asserts the same rule on the built manifest (21 map snippets, 19 maps + 2
composites). Its self-test adds a composite stripped of its variant, which fails. Against the
manifest as it stood before this change, the widened gate fails on exactly these two composites;
on the regenerated one it passes.
Every owner's sweep has landed. The two remaining lines were public-hygiene-check.mjs's pattern list, which must spell the role word in order to catch it on the way out, as this gate's own file must. It is exempt by name in a one-file list with its reason, not by any wider rule. The baseline is now empty: from here, every line that names the role is a new reference and fails.
A poison run answered 404 to posters/<id>.html for the browser only, and the gate still PASSED.
It counted the .html REQUEST, and its failure pattern (not available|failed|blank|error) never
matched what the wall then shows, "poster not found (404)"; the HUD reader did not even collect
that text. So it could not fail on the one path it exists for.
It now requires the .html to ANSWER 200 and a print frame to actually OPEN (counted at creation
with the appendChild hook the degrade gate already uses, since the frame removes itself after
printing). "not found" is read as the failure it is, in the HUD reader, the poll and the verdict.
Its output reports both outcomes. The browser runs are rega's: the positive arm must still pass,
and the 404'd source must now fail.
check:coverage-consistent:chained sets the link-age threshold out of reach. The proof that this narrows its scope and does not disarm it is the poison arm: its clock is computed RELATIVE to the threshold, so all 15 clauses (A-O, L included) still fail when poisoned at any setting (regions measured it at 99999). That proof was an orphan; it now runs on every landing, like the other gates' self-tests. 1.6 s.
