5c2549701b A packet says which list it holds, in the reader's language
TWO FINDINGS FROM rega'S ?list= RENDER, and the first one is a hazard I created
in the same commit where I argued against it.

I MADE PACKET_LIST FAIL CLOSED because "a packet that showed the wrong list is
printed and handed to someone" — and then wrote the frontier packet to the SAME
FILENAME as the default-list packet of that zone and language. rega measured the
result: out/packets/ held frontier packets under the DEFAULT names, beside an `ar`
file that was still the default list, and nothing in the name could tell them
apart. Guarding the input while leaving the output ambiguous protects against
asking for the wrong list, not against being unable to tell what you got.
  Fixed both ways. The list is in the FILENAME
(asia-china-tibet-autonomous-region.frontier.hi.html) and STAMPED INTO THE
DOCUMENT as data-packet-list, because a filename can be renamed, copied or
emailed while the packet itself should be able to say what it is. Same reasoning
as data-packet-build: out/ is gitignored, so a sweep grades whatever files happen
to be there, and a packet that cannot describe its own provenance makes an
accidental set indistinguishable from a current one. The gate prints it too.

THE LIST'S LABEL WAS ENGLISH IN EVERY NON-ENGLISH PACKET. "Project 4700: frontier
people groups" sat among Devanagari labels in a Latin serif face, because it came
verbatim from library/lists/lists.json — which carries ONE label per list and has
no locale dimension at all. The gate passed because it counts rows, not the row's
language.
  It is translated in packet-strings.json rather than by restructuring the shared
lists.json: that file is the packet's OWN catalogue, where a new language is a new
block and never a code change, and it degrades per key like every other string. An
unknown list still falls back to the data's English label.
  THE NUMERIC DESIGNATION STAYS — "Project 4700" / "مشروع 4700" / "4700 计划" —
because it names the campaign, while "frontier people groups" is prose. That is
the same line check-i18n-never-translated draws around "UUPGs": translate what a
bilingual reader would not dispute, keep what is an identity.

rega'S MEASUREMENTS, all confirming predictions I could only compute: 6 pages, 37
of 43 records, rows 12,379 -> 7,341 -> 4,754 -> 2,107 -> 1,745 -> 37, bars
1080/640/415/184/152/26 identical in en and hi, share "2.1% of the 1,745" with no
"1 of 27 lists", provenance-only footnote, fail-closed rc=1 on an unknown list.
And the number I most wanted: share-to-footnote clearance 314px en, 222px hi — so
hi+frontier, the tightest combination that exists (128px rows, gap down to 147px),
still clears by 222px and no label wraps.

Verified: all 18 packets in out/ pass sheets, rows==bars and zero-population.
The 11 laos packets FAILED the zero-population assertion until regenerated — they
predated the fix, which is the gate distinguishing stale artefacts from current
ones exactly as data-packet-build was added to do. Default path unchanged (43
groups, 7 sheets, 5 rows). frontier renders 6/6 in en, ar and hi with the label in
each script. check:packet-strings-parity PASS with the 5 new keys.

6fc6f2017b The six-row funnel can finally be rendered
ITS ONLY WITNESS WAS MY OWN HARNESS. The browser path honours the universal
`list` prop — upg-100-list.vue calls applyPeopleGroupList() at every fetch site —
but library/scripts/posters/packet.mjs had NO list support at all. So the
non-default-list branch of funnelPage, including the six-row shape where a list's
own total is inserted before the reader's row, could not be produced by the only
pipeline rega can drive. I had unit-tested it through a script I wrote about it,
which is exactly the state I have been objecting to in other people's gates.
rega offered to shoot a ?list= packet and there was no command to give them.

PACKET_LIST=<id> closes that. Rendered for the first time, and it is right:
  rows   12,379 -> 7,341 -> 4,754 -> 2,107 -> 1,745 -> 37
  bars   1080 / 640 / 415 / 184 / 152 / 26      (six rows, six bars)
  label  "Project 4700: frontier people groups" between the network's list and
         the reader's 37
  share  "This packet is 2.1% of the 1,745"     (no false "1 of 27 lists")
  foot   provenance only, no coverage claim
  row gap auto-adjusted 218 -> 147px for the extra row; last row stays 14px so
  the share still reads as its conclusion.

IT READS THE MEMBERSHIP FILE FROM DISK, not through loadListMembership(), which
fetches from the asset pool over HTTP — there is no server in a Node build. Same
file, same slugs, same counts.doxa.

AND IT FAILS CLOSED: an unknown or empty list exits non-zero rather than quietly
producing a packet of every group. peopleGroupList.js makes the same choice for
the same reason ("a map that silently showed all 2,107 while an embed asked for
Project 700 would be showing the wrong list with no sign of it"), and a packet is
worse than a map — it is printed and handed to someone.

⚠ buildFunnel() IS NOW A FUNCTION, NOT A CONSTANT, because it depends on a list
resolved after the records load. It mirrors upg-100-list.vue's packetFunnel()
exactly: the default list is the only one the zone catalogue describes, so it is
the only one that may claim "1 of K lists" and an unassigned count.

── AND A CORRECTION TO MY OWN VERIFICATION ─────────────────────────────────
"Numerals untouched" is about DIGITS, not GROUPING, and I verified the digits and
assumed the rest. rega measured the rendered hi sheet: Indian grouping,
"8,28,85,63,969 लोग" (lakh/crore 2-2-3) rather than Western 3-3-3. That is
CORRECT hi-IN formatting, so changing it would be worse — the real risk was never
the grouping but INCONSISTENCY, the same number printed two ways in one document.
Measured and it is consistent: num() is the only formatter in the renderer, so the
funnel's populations and the card pages' populations group identically — confirmed
against the rendered hi packet (card populations 1,70,000 / 3,37,000 / 8,10,000,
Indian-grouped like the funnel's). Only values at or above 100,000 can distinguish
the systems at all; my first check classified "1,400" and read a mismatch that did
not exist.

Verified: default path byte-identical (43 groups, 7 pages, 5 rows, 5 bars); all
four fixtures PASS with rows==bars; PACKET_LIST=frontier gives 37 of 43 records
and 6 pages; check:packet-strings-parity PASS; vite build clean, bundle unchanged
(the change is Node-side).

373fdd2595 The funnel states the list it was actually drawn from
A LIVE WRONG NUMBER, not a future risk. The universal `list` prop is already on
main (e3d25ff6) and this profile already honours it — applyPeopleGroupList()
filters the rows at all four fetch sites, packetRecords included — and the
membership files are on disk. So under ?list=frontier-500k the packet's rows were
the 71 network groups that are Project 700, while the funnel took its denominator
from the last step of vision-funnel.json and printed "of the 2,107". Off by a
factor of 30, with nothing on the page looking broken.
Measured from data/people-groups/lists/*.json (counts.doxa, what a Tier A map
shows): frontier-500k 71 · frontier 1,745 · unengaged 1,929 · unreached 2,082 ·
the default 2,107.

THREE NUMBERS WERE WRONG, NOT ONE, because all three descended from one total:
the share's denominator; the footnote's "N are in no list" (total minus assigned);
and "1 of 27 lists", which is a property of the UPG-100 ZONE CATALOGUE, not of the
active list — the zones partition the default list and nothing else.
A non-default list now gets its own step, labelled with the list's own label, so
the narrowing does not jump from one list's total to another list's packet.

AND EACH CLAUSE IS SUPPRESSED SEPARATELY, because they are provable separately.
A first pass dropped the whole share line whenever listCount was absent, throwing
away a true statement ("5.4% of the 1,745") to avoid an unprovable one. The
footnote splits the same way: provenance holds for every list, coverage does not.
⚠ The footnote is NOT split by parsing the translated sentence — hi ends in "।"
and zh in "。", and reading translated prose for structure is the trap
check-packet-render's own comment warns about. It is a second key.
⚠ And `funnel.unassigned ?? 0` would have printed "0 of the 1,745 are not yet in
any list" — a confident falsehood whose zero reads as a completeness claim.

── AND THREE FINDINGS FROM rega'S RENDER, none of which I could see ──────────
"0 people" PRINTED ON THE READER'S ROW OF EVERY PACKET. Number(null) is 0 (only
Number(undefined) is NaN), so `Number.isFinite(Number(x))` admitted the
deliberate `population: null` marker as the number zero. I asked "is this a
finite number?" when the question was "did anyone give me a population?" — the
same presence-vs-value confusion as inferring "did it work" from a field that
answers "did it isolate". Zero is suppressed too: a people group with no people
is missing data wearing a number's clothes.

THE SHARE LINE READ AS PART OF THE FOOTNOTE. Measured: 218px below the reader's
row, 42px above the footnote, because the last row kept the full inter-row gap.
Proximity is the only thing grouping them, so an even gap grouped the share with
the wrong element. The last row's margin is now 14px: share 14px under its row,
288px clear of the footnote.

THE GATE ASSERTED PAGE 2 AND PRINTED NOTHING ABOUT IT. rega: "a reader cannot see
WHAT it asserted." A silent pass is the mirror of a printed-but-unasserted number
— the check is real and the evidence invisible. It now reports rows, bars and the
share line, and gained two assertions: every row must have a BAR (the reader's
step had none, so the funnel never visibly narrowed to "yours"), and no row may
print a zero population.

Verified: all five list cases render their own true numbers — doxa keeps the full
claim, unreached/frontier/unengaged get their own step and a percentage with no
false "1 of K", frontier-500k reads "100% of the 71" with the duplicate row
suppressed (a step that repeats its neighbour is not a step). The four fixtures
are byte-for-byte unchanged on the default path, so the list-awareness is purely
additive. check:packet-strings-parity PASS with the three new keys. Both new gate
assertions mutation-tested in en and ar: removing a bar is DETECTED, injecting a
zero population is DETECTED. 5 rows = 5 bars, 0 zero-population rows, "0 people"
absent. Six-row layout recomputed: fits with 318px headroom, 206px if every label
wraps. BUNDLE=my-upg-100-list vite build clean.

NOT re-rendered in a browser: rega measured the previous state and these are
responses to it, so the new geometry wants one more look.

1570b7e55e The funnel narrows to the reader, and a missing page 2 can now go red
TWO FIXES FROM A BROWSER RUN I COULD NOT DO MYSELF. rega measured page 2 in
print media and found the opposite of the defect I feared: no overflow, but the
four global steps ended at y~330 of 1056 while "43 · are in THIS packet" sat
alone at y~965, leaving the middle ~60% of the sheet empty so the reader's own
step read as a detached footer. And it had NO BAR, so the funnel never visibly
narrowed to "yours" — a funnel whose final term is not drawn as part of the
funnel fails at the one thing it is for.

So the five steps are now ONE list with the reader's included, and it has a bar
like the others: 1080 -> 640 -> 415 -> 184 -> 26px, the last two tinted so the
network's list and the reader's list read as one thought. The 26px floor is what
keeps the smallest list a visible sliver rather than a hairline.

THE ROW RHYTHM IS DERIVED FROM MEASURED ROW HEIGHTS, not guessed. A first
attempt subtracted a magic 118px as "about one row" and left 418px of dead space
at the foot — rega's emptiness, just redistributed. Summing the real heights
closes it to ~298px.
AND IT KEEPS DELIBERATE SLACK, because two runtime facts are unknowable at
layout time: whether a step carries a population line, and how many LINES its
translated label wraps to. Arabic and Hindi labels are far longer than the
English, so LINE_SLACK reserves one extra wrapped line per row. Computed: 298px
headroom normally, 196px even if EVERY label wraps an extra line. Tight-packing
this page would trade "60% empty" for an overflow in the locales I cannot eyeball.

── AND A GATE HOLE A NEAR-MISS EXPOSED ──────────────────────────────────────
regions-plugin reported, unprompted, that a merge resolved with
`git checkout --ours` silently deleted the printPacket call site supplying the
funnel data — 60 lines — AND EVERY GATE STAYED GREEN. They filed it as merge
discipline. It is also gate design, and that half is mine: the funnel page is
OPTIONAL by design (buildPacket omits it when the arg is null), so a packet
without page 2 is not malformed, just smaller. My own choice made the deletion
invisible.

--expect-funnel closes it. The wrong fix is to always require the page: the 11
pre-funnel laos packets and any host with no funnel data would go red, and a
false red costs as much as a false green. Instead the CALLER, which knows whether
this packet was built with funnel data, declares it. An absence is then either
DECLARED (no flag, fine) or a FAILURE (flag passed, page missing) — never a
silent nothing.

Verified: all 16 generated packets satisfy the sheet arithmetic, 0 failures,
including the 11 laos packets that have no funnel page. fixture-tibet renders 5
rows with 5 bars ending in 43. Arabic regenerated: 7 sheets, dir="rtl", 5 rows,
5 bars, ZERO Eastern-Arabic digits on the sheet. Mutation-tested --expect-funnel
three ways: baseline+flag PASS, funnel-sheet-deleted+flag FAILS, deleted without
the flag PASSES. Flag filtered from the positional read, so a bare
--expect-funnel is not eaten as the packet path (that trap has bitten this repo
three times). BUNDLE=my-upg-100-list vite build clean, +141 bytes vs main.

NOT re-verified in a browser: check:packet-render needs Chromium, reserved to
rega. The geometry above is computed, not rendered — the print-media layout is
exactly what rega's eyes caught that my arithmetic did not, so this wants one
more look.

65017fefa4 The prayer packet shows how its list was narrowed out of all the earth
Page 2 of every packet is now the funnel: 12,379 people groups on earth, 7,341
unreached, 4,754 frontier, 2,107 on this prayer network's list, and N of those
in the reader's hand. A partner holding one list can see where it sits in the
whole, which is the argument the packet is making.

★ IT RENDERS NUMBERS IT DID NOT COMPUTE. Every count is read from
data/people-groups/vision-funnel.json, which build-vision-funnel.mjs generates
from the IMB CSV and the live network list and which already drives the Vision
Card. Re-deriving them in the packet would give one fact two sources; they would
drift, and two internally-consistent surfaces disagreeing is worse than one
wrong number because a reader cannot tell which to trust.

K AND THE SHARE ARE MEASURED AT RENDER TIME, NEVER TYPED, and this mattered:
the brief said "~30 lists of 50-100" and the catalogue says K=27 with counts
from 8 to 118 (west-africa 118, asia-india-rajasthan 116, uncovered-scatter 8).
Only about half sit in that band, so no copy claims it. The page states what the
data can defend -- "1 of 27 lists" and "N of the 2,107" -- and a footnote states
plainly that 21 of the 2,107 are in no list, because a partner adding up rows
would find the gap anyway. Reported to the Driver; K=27 pending his ruling on
whether the two residual buckets count.

A SHARE MUST NEVER ROUND TO ZERO. One decimal gave the single-group fixture
"0.0%", which reads as "this packet covers none of them". Verified exhaustively
over all 2,108 possible list sizes against 2,107: no size prints 0 and none is
malformed. 1 group -> 0.05%, 20 -> 0.95%, 21 -> 1%, 43 -> 2%, 118 -> 5.6%.

NUMERALS STAY WESTERN, as required. num() is toLocaleString(lang), and CLDR's
default numbering system for the bare ar/hi tags is latn -- verified 12,379 and
2,107 in both. Reusing num() rather than writing a second formatter is also what
keeps the funnel's digits identical to every other page of the packet.

PAGE COUNT NOW COUNTS THE ARTIFACT. packet.mjs computed
`1 + ceil(n/PER_PAGE) + 2` under a comment claiming the number was "asked of the
renderer, not recomputed here". It WAS recomputed, and the funnel page silently
made it wrong by one -- exactly the drift the comment warned of. It now counts
the emitted sheets.

THE GATE IS TAUGHT, NOT LOOSENED. check-packet-render went red on every fixture
("43 cards should lay out as 6 sheets, but the packet has 7") -- correct
behaviour on a structure it had not been told about. The wrong fix is to accept
N or N+1: that assertion exists to catch silently dropped people groups, and a
±1 tolerance is the slack a lost list page hides in. So the funnel is DETECTED
via .funnel-title and added as a known term, and a funnel page that renders its
title but no share figure is now its own failure -- a number printed but not
asserted on is decoration.

The page is OPTIONAL: buildPacket omits it when no funnel data was supplied, so
every existing caller keeps working and a host without the data still gets a
correct packet. Better a 4-section packet than one asserting figures it could
not read. A multi-list batch selection keeps the steps but drops "1 of 27",
which is false for a custom selection, while "N of the 2,107" stays exactly true.

Verified: check:packet-strings-parity PASS (31 string keys x 11 locales, my 10
new ones present and translated in all 10 non-English blocks, 0 declared-absent
additions). A partial locale with 3 of 10 funnel keys translated renders those 3
translated and the other 7 in English, nothing blank. Arabic packet generated:
dir="rtl", funnel is sheet 2 of 7, all four steps carry Western digits. All 16
generated packets satisfy the corrected sheet arithmetic, including the 11 older
laos packets that have no funnel page. Mutation-tested: dropping a list sheet is
caught by the independent page-header witness (20 DROPPED), a funnel page with no
share figure is caught by the new assertion, and removing the funnel page passes.
BUNDLE=my-upg-100-list vite build 319 modules clean.

NOT verified in a browser: check:packet-render launches Chromium, which the
Playwright policy reserves to rega. The simulations above parse the same
attributes from the same generated HTML.

e8ad1d56e6 packet: a partial translation renders 12 prayer points, not 3
Some checks are pending
build-gate / build (push) Waiting to run
packet-render.js resolved the prayer points with `L.points || EN.points`.
That is a whole-block fallback when the key is ABSENT, and TRUNCATING when a
translator has done some of the 12 — a 3-element array is truthy. Measured at
the rendered layer with a deliberately partial locale block: a page headed
"12 Prayer Points" containing THREE, points 4..12 silently gone, including the
Mark 5:1-20 passage point 4 prints in full. Nothing blank, no error raised.

Invisible in all 11 shipping locales because every one of them is complete.
It would have appeared on the next language added — and "a new language is a
NEW BLOCK, never a code change" only holds if a PARTIAL block degrades per key,
since half-finished is the normal state of a language in progress.

Now merges per point and per field against English: English fixes the LENGTH
and supplies every missing field, so a point translated for `text` but not
`sub` keeps the English `sub` — and keeps its NUMBER, which the merge supplies.

The sheet-sum invariant could not see this: a 3-point page is still exactly one
sheet, so every number check-packet-render printed stayed correct while nine
points were missing. It now measures and asserts the count. Mutation-tested —
reverting the fix prints "prayer points : 2 / 12" and fails.

All 11 locales regenerated with photos and swept: check:packets-all 11/11, each
12/12 points, including RTL ar and Devanagari hi. Renderer, generator and gate
synced to doxa-maps-plugin-studio, which also lacked the .points-title and
.wheel-title test hooks the new assertion needs.

Also wires check:capability-exemplars into gates:post (33 -> 34 steps). It reads
public/doxa-maps/manifest.json, a build artifact, so ordering mattered: `tree`
writes the manifest and is &&-chained immediately before gates:post, and the
gate SKIPs rather than fails when the manifest is absent. Full wave: 34/34.
The quoted gates:post line in the README is re-synced in the same commit,
because check:quoted-scripts goes red on the drift this commit creates.

doxa-maps-88655c70
3519ca3934 check:packet-browser asserts its headings, and stops reading them in English
This gate printed nine metrics, folded six into `const bad = a || b || ...` — so a
failure said "FAIL" without naming which — and left three unchecked: page size and
the two headings, which are the very strings its own header claims it covers ("the
gate reports which headings came back translated"). Reports, not asserts.

★ IT LOOKED LIKE IT HAD FOUND A PRODUCT BUG, AND HAD NOT. Under ?lang=es it printed
an EMPTY wheel heading; under hi it blanked BOTH — while the catalog holds "Rueda de
Oración" and "प्रार्थना चक्र". That reads exactly like a broken i18n path, and it
PASSED anyway, because nothing asserted the values.

The cause was the harness. wheelTitle was innerText.match(/^.*Wheel.*$/m) and
pointsTitle /Prayer Points|Puntos/ — neither can match Hindi, and /Wheel/ cannot
match Spanish. The product was correct in every locale all along: verified after the
fix in en/es/hi/ar/zh, RTL and Devanagari included. Had I reported that as a defect
I would have been wrong.

mark5 carried the same fault: innerText.includes('Gadarenes'), an English proper
noun that goes RED the moment point4_passage is translated. Now asserted by
.p4-passage length — the same fix already applied in check-packet-render.

Headings are now compared to the CATALOG entry for the packet's language, with
per-key fallback to English exactly as the renderer resolves it. packet-render.js
gains class="points-title"/"wheel-title" as TEST HOOKS: both were inline-styled with
no selector, which is what forced the English greps in the first place.

MUTATION-TESTED: a renderer forced to ignore the language FAILS with both headings
named and the expected values shown; a renderer emitting an empty heading FAILS
("a blank heading is worse than an English one").

★ ONE MUTATION CORRECTLY PASSED, and it marks a real limit: reverting es
wheel_title to English IN THE CATALOG passes, because rendered and expected then
legitimately agree. This gate cannot tell a translated catalog from an untranslated
one — that is check:packet-strings-parity's job, and it does assert it. Two gates,
two questions.

Partial translation re-verified through the BROWSER path: a 1-of-21-key Swahili
block renders "Mambo 12 ya Maombi" with the wheel heading falling back to "Prayer
Wheel" — translated where present, English where not, neither blank.

That makes four gates with one root cause (tabs-localized, packet-render,
deck-click, and this one twice). Any new gate matching on user-visible text should
resolve it from the catalog.

doxa-maps-88655c70
e952e01e4c Assert the packet numbers that were only being printed, and run the gate on every locale
check-packet-render's own header states the law it exists for — "never print a number
without asserting on it" — and two of the nine numbers it printed were decoration.

PAGE SIZE. Printed "612 x 792 pt", never compared. The landscape check only catches
h <= w, so a wrong PORTRAIT size sailed through: A4 is 595x842, taller-than-wide like
Letter, and would have passed on a packet printing with wrong margins on every US
printer. Not hypothetical — @page{size:...} silently falls back in Chromium, which this
repo has already paid for once. Now asserts every page's MediaBox against Letter.

CARD COUNT. `if (!r.cards)` passed a packet carrying ONE card. Counts must stay relative
(a per-zone packet has its own group count), but relative does not mean unasserted:
sheets === 1 + ceil(cards/PER_PAGE) + 2 holds for any zone.

★ That was not enough, and the mutation test is what showed it. Deleting a whole list
sheet removed 15 cards AND one sheet, so the invariant still held — 80 cards / 7 sheets
is valid arithmetic — and the packet PASSED while missing 15 people groups. Internal
consistency is not completeness. So it now cross-checks an INDEPENDENT witness: the
{from}-{to} of {count} header the renderer prints on each list page, where count comes
from groups.length and does not move when a page is lost. It also requires the ranges to
TILE [1..count], which catches a missing MIDDLE page that the totals alone cannot see.

Those headers are TRANSLATED and the languages disagree on order — en/ar read "1-20 of
95" while hi reads "95 में से 1–20" and zh "95 之中的 1–20", total FIRST. A positional
regex would read those backwards. Parsed as digits with max() as the total instead, and
locale digit forms normalised to ASCII, so it is grammar-independent. Verified by
running the missing-middle-page mutation in Hindi as well as English.

MARK 5 WAS ASSERTED BY AN ENGLISH WORD. body.includes('Gadarenes') would go RED on a
correctly-translated packet, and passes today only because every locale falls back to
English for that key — the check and the bug were locked together. The renderer now
emits class="p4-passage"/"p4-credit" as test hooks (the block is styled inline and had
no selector at all), and the gate asserts length >= 1200, which holds in any language.

check:packets-all runs the gate over EVERY generated packet rather than one hand-named
file. The single-file gate SKIPs without an argument, so it was in package.json, passing
in all 11 locales, and in NEITHER gates:pre NOR gates:post — it ran only when someone
typed a filename. Now in gates:post (21/21, 11 packets through a real browser). SKIPs
when no packets are generated, so a clean checkout is unaffected.

Mutation-tested: A4 FAILs, a dropped sheet FAILs, a missing middle page FAILs in en and
hi, a truncated passage FAILs, a removed passage FAILs. i18n verified end to end by
adding a PARTIAL new language as a data block only — 3 of 23 keys — and confirming the
translated strings render, untranslated keys fall back to English, and nothing is blank.

467b7f01a2 feat(packet): all 11 locales — Hindi unblocked with a vendored Devanagari face
Some checks are pending
build-gate / build (push) Waiting to run
The packet now ships in every locale the app ships: en es fr pt de it ro ru ar
hi zh. Each carries all 21 translatable keys, the twelve prayer points, the
eleven rhythms, both attributions and the privacy note. point4_passage stays
omitted everywhere and falls back to the licensed English WEB text, for the
reason already recorded — translating scripture here would put unlicensed,
unverified Bible text into a printed prayer packet.

HINDI WAS BLOCKED ON A FONT, not on a translation. Devanagari renders as tofu
boxes in the packet's Georgia/Palatino/serif stack because this machine has no
Devanagari font at all. Noto Serif Devanagari (SIL OFL) is now vendored —
devanagari subset only, 124 KB, licence and provenance beside it, matching how
poppins/ ships latin and latin-ext separately.

It is base64-INLINED into the packet, not linked. A packet is a standalone file
meant to print offline — the Node generator writes HTML with no server, and the
photos are already inlined for exactly this reason — so a URL would break
precisely where the packet is most used. Cost: ~165 KB on a 3.5 MB packet, and
only for that language. One rule prepends the face to the stack rather than
editing 22 hardcoded Georgia declarations, and the browser falls back PER
CHARACTER, so Latin scripture references in a Hindi packet still set in Georgia.
mr and ne map to the same face; a missing font warns loudly rather than silently
producing rectangles.

Chinese needed no font work — CJK already shapes in the system stack — only the
translation.

★ TWO MEASUREMENTS LIED ABOUT SCRIPT COVERAGE, recorded so nobody automates this
cheaply. Comparing shaped width against a missing font reported ar and zh BROKEN
and hi FINE — exactly backwards, because Devanagari tofu boxes happen to match
real glyph advance. An ink-column-profile heuristic then scored CORRECTLY
RENDERED Devanagari the same as tofu (3 vs 2 distinct heights), because its
baseline bar gives a uniform profile. Both were abandoned: a detector that blocks
working packets is worse than none.

Verified: all 11 languages render 8 sheets -> 8 letter portrait pages, map
painted, zero overflow. The Hindi prayer-points page was READ AS A PICTURE —
conjuncts and matras shaped correctly, no boxes, Latin references still Georgia.

dd14b5fe76 feat(packet): five more languages, and right-to-left support for Arabic
Some checks are pending
build-gate / build (push) Waiting to run
The packet now ships in 9 of the app's 11 locales: en es fr pt de it ro ru ar.
Each carries all 21 translatable keys — page furniture, the twelve prayer points
with sub-headings, the eleven rhythms, both Metacamp attributions, the privacy
note. point4_passage (Mark 5:1-20 in full) stays omitted in every non-en block
and falls back to the licensed English WEB text with its credit, for the reason
already recorded: translating scripture here would put unlicensed, unverified
Bible text into a printed prayer packet.

RTL IS NOW REAL, not assumed. The renderer emits dir on <html> from an RTL
locale set. Without it an Arabic packet renders readable glyphs LEFT-aligned —
which looks like a styling quirk rather than a bug, and no assertion noticed.

★ TWO BIDI FINDINGS, both from reading the render rather than the code:

1. Scripture references are LTR runs inside RTL paragraphs, and the bidi
   algorithm REORDERS a run that starts with a digit: "1 Peter 5:6-11" rendered
   as "Peter 5:6-11 1". Each reference is now dir="ltr" + unicode-bidi:isolate.
2. With isolation, the reference LIST reads right-to-left on an RTL page (first
   item rightmost). That is correct for an RTL reader, not a defect — recorded
   in _meta so nobody "fixes" it. English source order is unchanged, asserted.

★ HINDI IS DELIBERATELY NOT ADDED. Rendering each script at 48px and READING THE
PIXELS: Latin, Cyrillic, Arabic and CJK all shape correctly in the packet's
Georgia/serif stack; DEVANAGARI RENDERS AS TOFU BOXES, because this box has zero
Devanagari fonts (fc-list). A hi block would ship a page of empty rectangles. It
is blocked on vendoring a Devanagari font into public/assets/fonts, which is its
own piece of work.

⚠ THE MEASUREMENT THAT LIED. My first test compared rendered text advance against
a missing-font baseline and reported ar and zh BROKEN and hi FINE — the exact
opposite of the truth, because Devanagari tofu boxes happen to match real glyph
advance. One screenshot settled in a glance what two rounds of clever
arithmetic got backwards. Recorded in _meta.

Verified at the rendered layer in all nine languages: 8 sheets -> 8 letter
portrait pages, 95 people cards, 12 wheel segments, map painted, zero
overflowing sheets, 19 strings differing from English per locale. The Arabic
prayer-points page was read as a picture, not just asserted on.

301cc38fba feat(upg-100): print a prayer packet from the map legend
Some checks are pending
build-gate / build (push) Waiting to run
Driver, as a first-time user: "I select one and it gives me print options at
the top right of the legend... that's the only way that map would be usable."

The affordance was already built and switched OFF. The shared legend emits
'export' with 'poster' | 'packet' for the selected node, the profile wired
@export, and SHOW_EXPORT_BUTTON was held false with the note "until the export
packet is finished: the button currently produces a broken packet". That
precondition is now met, so the switch is on.

ONE RENDERER, TWO CALLERS. The pages move to library/packet/packet-render.js,
imported by BOTH the build-time generator and the browser export, so the printed
packet and the generated one cannot drift. The card asked for exactly this:
"reuse the existing print actions rather than growing a fourth implementation."
The extraction is behaviour-preserving — the generated packet is byte-identical
to before apart from leading whitespace (the code is now inside a factory), and
check:packet-render still passes 8/8.

★ THE PACKET IS GENERATED ON CLICK, NEVER SHIPPED. One packet is ~3.5 MB (photos
dominate) and 28 zones would add ~100 MB to a repo that ALREADY had a publish
blocked at a 74 MB asset tree. Generating client-side costs zero repository
bytes; the photos come from URLs the records already carry. This is the Driver's
instruction: "instead of fetching the poster from the public folder I want the
client side code to generate the poster real time when you click on the button
so it does not take a lot of mb storage." Bundle cost: +21 KB (494 -> 516 KB),
which includes all 12 prayer points and Mark 5:1-20 in full.

Printing goes through the SHARED openPrintFrame — a hidden same-page iframe, not
window.open(). A popup is blockable and drops the reader out of the map.

Two traps the browser path had to handle, both already known to this codebase:
  - pg_slugs BYPASSES the shared selector evaluator (it intentionally throws on
    that type, and 12 of the 27 lists use it). Same special-case the map and the
    poster wall apply, so all three agree about who is in a list.
  - evaluate() returns a Set, not an array.

VERIFIED IN A BROWSER, not by reading source (new gate check:packet-browser):
live records -> shared renderer -> page.pdf(), giving 8 sheets -> 8 pages at
612x792pt, 95 people cards, 12 wheel segments, Mark 5 in full, 2 metacamp.org
attributions, 0 page errors. I18n verified with a partial Spanish block: the
translated headings rendered in Spanish while Mark 5 and the attributions fell
back to English, per key, never blank.

Card BUILD-UPG100-MAP-LEGEND-LEADS-WITH-THE-UPG-100-LIST part (d). Parts (a) and
(b) shipped earlier. Part (c) — removing the People Group tab and retabbing the
legend — stays OPEN: that card is explicitly driver_gated on "what is the
legend's tree once Region/Zone/People Group are removed", and the current tabs
are wired to real hierarchy data.
