doxa-maps-88655c70 5b3618d0d6 Check that the CLI doc still quotes package.json correctly
Applying last tick's lesson -- grep for the class, not the instance -- found a
third surface teaching the old serve command. README-SECTION-3-cli-commands.md
transcribes the package.json scripts so a reader need not open the file, and it
still showed python3 -m http.server two commits after serve became
serve-strict.mjs. An inheritor following the CLI reference would have started the
permissive server, the one whose forgiveness hid a URL bug in two gates for a
whole flight.

Measured before fixing: ten quoted scripts, nine matching, exactly one drifted. I
had expected build:unlocked to be stale too and it is not -- the doc truncates it
rather than misquoting it, which is the right call for a seven-hundred-character
line.

Hand-fixing the one line would leave the next script change to rot the same way,
so the doc is now checked. The comparison is loose in the three ways a
human-facing doc needs: package.json's trailing hash comments are ignored, the
doc's own slash-slash annotations are ignored, and truncation passes on a prefix
match either way. A quoted script that does not exist in package.json is a hard
failure, since that is a command someone would type and get "script not found".
Completeness is deliberately not asserted; the doc is a curated subset and
demanding otherwise would make it churn on every internal gate.

Self-test poisons the doc in memory two ways, a changed body and a nonexistent
script name, and requires both to be caught. Both are. Full build passes with the
gate in the chain.

  • why.md — the problem and the "map islands" idea. Start here.
  • tutorial.md — build your first map, no jargon.
  • how-to.md — recipes: embed, iframe, SPA, colors, CDN, mobile, tokens.
  • reference.md — config fields, build scripts, the profile-config contract.
  • explanation.md — the model in 15 lines.
  • architecture/ — the deep end: full contracts, the per-file catalog.
  • README-embed-example.md — the drop-in README used when this bundler is embedded inside a host repo.

Nothing on the simple path is longer than a few minutes; everything complex lives in architecture/, linked from where you'd need it.
