Two related fixes, both about a measurement that had outlived the thing it
measured.
The shot harness fetched its Mapbox token from doxa.life/api/maps/token on every
run. That token belongs to the Mapbox account `doxalife` and is URL-restricted
to doxa.life, which is why the harness also had to spoof a Referer header to get
any tiles at all. Meanwhile the built bundles carry a different token entirely —
`gosystems`, baked in from vite.doxa-maps-build-config.json — and that one is not
restricted. Measured with no Referer: mapbox-streets-v8, country-boundaries-v1
and bathymetry-v2 all return 200 on the baked token and 403 on the fetched one.
The harness was doing extra work to use the weaker of the two.
It now reads the build config first and keeps the fetch as a fallback. Beyond
simply working, a README image is evidence about the SHIPPED artifact, so it
should render with the credential the artifact ships with; rendering with a
different token means the picture stops proving what a reader downloads. The
local read is also deterministic — the network path degraded silently, setting
the token to empty when doxa.life was slow, after which every shot was taken
token-limited and still written to disk.
check:shot-fidelity had the same problem one layer up. It fired its tileset
findings whenever any file referenced a mapbox:// tileset, and printed
"Referer doxa.life -> 200 · 127.0.0.1 -> 403 · no referer -> 403" as though it
were a live reading. It was one, on 2026-09-21, against the token that shipped
then. After the token swap in

(2 min, 1 diagram) (first map) (task recipes) (tables) (contracts)
- 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-configcontract. - 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.
