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.
Every reference to the Driver in internal/ is reworded the same way as in
library/: the reason stays, the speaker and the quote go, an open decision
reads "provisional, pending a product decision", and agent names and decision-
sheet rows are dropped. Where a gate printed the word, its message now names
the reviewer or the ruling instead.
Three spots were code, not comments, and changed with their callers:
- the element census's allowlist field `driver` is now `ruling`, in the gate
and both presets (same validation: match, ruling, date and card required);
- check:i18n-never-translated's DRIVER-GATED marker is DECISION-PENDING, in
the entries and in the regex that counts them (its output is otherwise
byte-identical);
- the package.json description of the census says "ruling".
public-hygiene-check keeps its two patterns for the word: they are what keep
it out of the served folder.
rega read the rendered page and found a fourth leak site my gate had passed: a
SERIES=country poster still printed 'UNENGAGED PEOPLE GROUPS', 'Unengaged of West
Africa', 'Series: List of 100 UPG's · map 11 of 28' and a side box calling it one
of a 30-map set. I had reported that PASS to three agents as proof the render was
clean. It was not proof: the gate's vocabulary was a HAND LIST of the phrases I
had already found, so it could not see framing I never enumerated.
ONE SWITCH (dx-shepherd's call). SERIES=country now implies the country zone
source, the series name and the header strings. COUNTRIES=1 is kept as an ALIAS
that resolves to SERIES=country, so runs that predate series.json keep working
and now get the matching packet too. Two parameters for one concept is exactly
what let rega's render take the new packet path with a UPG-100 header.
The five header strings move into series.json: kicker, title qualifier, series
name, side-box heading and body. One file owns the wording.
THE GATE NO LONGER DEPENDS ON WHAT I HAPPENED TO KNOW. Its vocabulary is DERIVED
from series.json -- every string a series declares becomes that series' own
fingerprint, so adding wording polices it from that moment. Strings shared
between series are dropped (they identify nothing) and a 12-character floor keeps
short phrases from matching innocent prose. The hand list is kept and merged for
phrases no series declares, like 'Project 7000'.
It also strips HTML and CSS comments before matching: generate.mjs ships design
notes into the SVG that QUOTE these strings, and a correct country poster failed
on five of them. A detector that does not know the comment syntax of what it
reads attacks the documentation of the thing it protects.
FOUND WHILE WIRING IT, a pre-existing break: COUNTRY MODE HAS NOT RUN AT ALL.
generate.mjs read plugin-designs/country-posters/data/countries.json, but
ddde518a8 moved that data to library/data/country-posters.json and the reader was
never updated -- no file at that path on main, so every COUNTRIES=1 run died on
ENOENT. Both paths are now tried, newest first, with an error naming the command
that writes it. Country mode builds 173 countries for the first time.
(node --check passed on the fix while existsSync was still unimported -- a parse
check is not a will-it-run check, and the free variable sat in the one branch my
tests had never reached.)
Verified: country header now reads 'Unreached People Groups / Pray for Republic
of The Gambia / What is a Country Prayer Map?'; the UPG-100 default header is
unchanged; the stale poster still fails as country with 11 real hits, so the
comment strip did not blind the check; COUNTRIES=1 alias renders correctly; all
four packet gates PASS.
The country posters shipped carrying UPG-100 framing: the UNENGAGED PEOPLE
GROUPS kicker, 'This packet is 1 of {n} UPG-100 lists', the Project
2000/7000/4700/700 narrowing funnel, and a below-map block telling the reader to
divide the set among THIRTY disciples -- coherent for ~30 UPG-100 zones and
incoherent for ~170 countries. Reported by the Driver.
Not a mislabel: there was NO series parameter anywhere, so 'the packet' and 'the
UPG-100 packet' were one thing and nothing could disagree.
series.json declares each series' funnel flag, string overrides and the three
below-map NETWORKS blocks. Both packet.mjs and generate.mjs read it, because the
leak was in TWO independent places -- the packet strings and the poster's own
furniture, which is not a packet string at all, so fixing either alone leaves the
other printing. SERIES absent or unknown resolves to upg100.
The funnel page drops for country: it narrows every people group on earth to THIS
list, which is not a description of a country. Reusing the existing
missing-vision-funnel path means one way for the page to be absent, not two.
Four packet keys are overridden, not seventeen: 12 of the 17 are funnel_* and go
with the page; the 12 prayer points are invariant, because they are about a
PEOPLE and a country poster still prays for the peoples within it. Overrides
apply to every locale on purpose -- an English country kicker is visibly awaiting
translation, whereas inheriting the translated UPG-100 kicker prints the wrong
series fluently.
The country English is a DRAFT from the Driver's dictated shape, flagged
_draft_awaiting_driver; no translations until he signs off.
check:series-isolation asserts the property, with a self-test over 6 known-bad
inputs. It caught a real leak this commit would otherwise have claimed fixed: the
packet's page 1 lifts the whole SVG from the pre-rendered poster, so a country
packet built against a stale UPG-100 poster still printed 'Thirty disciples'.
Verified at the rendered layer -- country 11 pages, upg100 12, the delta exactly
the funnel page; upg100 networks byte-identical to the text they replaced.
