A previous sweep found six dark matches, correctly ruled five of them unreachable, and
fixed the one real violation in doxa-simple-map. Re-running it with a luminance test
rather than a hex prefix found more, because the earlier pattern also matched the green
accent #10b981 and so buried the genuine surfaces in noise.
Three further unconditional violations, all the same shape as the one already fixed: the
loading overlays in all-people-groups, country-posters and doxa-research-map each render
on every load via v-if="!appReady", so a near-black flash was the first thing a visitor
saw. All four now use the palette surface with muted text.
The template-bundle starter was also dark in both profiles. That one matters more than a
leaf: the documented recipe is to copy template-bundle and rename it, so every future
plugin would have inherited a surface the house style forbids. The two profiles stay
visibly distinct — a tinted surface with an accent border, b white with a neutral one.
Verified by reading the shipped rule out of each built bundle: 4 of 4 found, all
#f3f3f1 at luminance 243. The found-count is reported so a run that matches nothing
cannot read as a pass — an earlier version of that check found zero rules and printed
ALL LIGHT.
Deriving the denominator from perZone.size fixed the impossible 27/26 but left a
permanent 27/28, which reads as "one zone is broken". I carded it as a bug on exactly
that reading. It is not a bug.
resolveAllZones deliberately excludes the deaf zone from the region-fill tapestry and
records zero for it, because its A017 affinity selector double-stamps land already owned
by the 13 geographic zones — 16 of oceania-indonesia's 18 Pacific ISO3 codes alone. That
double-stamp showed deaf twice and underlapped every other region. Deaf stays complete in
the list, the legend and the pins; only the polygon fill is withheld.
So a by-design exclusion was being displayed as a shortfall. Counting only zones that are
meant to have geometry makes the badge report 27/27 when everything is healthy, and fall
below its total only when a zone genuinely fails to resolve.
Verified: 28 leaves minus 1 deaf is 27 expected, 27 resolve, and the leaf now shows
195 polys · 27/27 zones · 2107 pins. The composite does not display this badge at all,
which a first probe misread as a failure.
The Driver asked for the top-header search bar to be more rounded. It is now 16px, which
is exactly half its measured 32px height, so the ends are true semicircles. Any larger
value renders identically because the browser clamps to height/2, making this the actual
maximum rather than a number picked by eye.
Scoped to the top header only. The card's scope field named the shared SearchBar
component, but that component's own 10px is not what renders here: measuring the computed
style showed 6px, because DashboardTopBar overrides it. Editing the library would also
have changed people-groups-grid and big-picture, which was not asked for.
Verified 6px to 16px at two viewports, confirmed as a full pill, with the magnifier icon
still clear of the curve at a 10px inset.
The Driver rejected v1, which added the hint as its own paragraph above the grid: "you
dont have to add a SECOND HEADER to make this show up... it could be CENTRED on the same
header where it says total 2107." So it now rides the bar that is already there, beside
the live count.
Centred by absolute positioning against the bar, not by flex spacers. The first attempt
here used a spacer on each side and measured 55px off centre at both 1440px and 1280px,
because spacers split the leftover space rather than the bar, and the left cluster
(dock, title, count, selection controls) and right cluster (toast, Export CSV) differ in
width. Absolute at left:50% with translateX(-50%) is relative to the bar itself, so the
clusters cannot drag it, and being out of flow it adds no height by construction.
The bar gains position:relative to be that containing block. pointer-events:none keeps
the hint from intercepting a click meant for a control beneath it, and it hides below
1100px where the clusters leave no free middle.
Measured against a pre-change baseline of 32px: 32px at all three viewports, one header
bar, and centre offset 0 at 1440px and 1280px.
The badge read "27/26 zones" — a count exceeding its own total — in two shipped README
screenshots. 26 was the leaf count before slice 09b-6 added the Frontier-Asia uncovered
rows; the literal was never updated, so it drifted the moment the data grew. The
denominator is now derived from perZone.size, which tracks the zone list automatically
and cannot disagree again. Measured from clusters.json: 13 regional + 12 asia + 2
uncovered + 1 deaf = 28. The corrected badge also surfaces 1 genuinely unresolved zone
that the stale denominator was masking.
legend-tree.js asserted "33 leaves" and "7 Frontier-Asia uncovered" in a comment; the
shipped data carries 28 and 2. Corrected to point at the arrays instead of a count.
README showed "List — page 1" and "List — page 2" as the same picture. The shot loaded
one URL twice and tried to reach a page 2 by scrolling and clicking Next; neither exists,
the list has no pagination, and every attempt sat in try/catch so the miss was silent.
The PNGs differed by 0.16% render noise, so no checksum would have caught them. Mean-
while poster-wall — a real manifest-listed profile — had no screenshot at all. Shoot the
real third thing rather than fake a fourth.
check:shot-distinctness gates this, blocking in CI. It keys on url+viewport, so the
deploy2 mobile shot of the same SPA stays legitimate rather than a false positive.
