# stardust:direct

Resolve the user's freeform redesign intent into a complete **target
specification**: project-root `PRODUCT.md` and `DESIGN.md` (impeccable
format), a `DESIGN.json` sidecar with the divergence audit trail, and a
`stardust/direction.md` with the full reasoning trace.

`direct` produces the spec against which `prototype` and `migrate`
operate. It never writes prototypes or migrates pages — those are
downstream sub-commands.

## Inputs

- `<phrase>` — optional positional. The user's freeform intent
  ("make it better", "more Linear less Salesforce", "feel more premium
  on a small screen"). If omitted, ask the user for one.
- `--re-direct` — optional. Replace the current direction with a new
  one. Triggers stale-flagging on prototyped / approved / migrated
  pages per `skills/stardust/reference/state-machine.md`. Default
  behaviour without the flag is additive: if a direction already
  exists, the agent asks before replacing.
- `--rebrand` — optional. Force rebrand mode (full divergence-seed
  roll, no Mode A inheritance). Without it the default is
  brand-faithful whenever the captured signal is `signal-strong`
  (§ Mode-detection precedence).
- `--prep` — optional. Run in **migrate-prep mode**: confirm the
  type catalog, finalize the module catalog, capture color
  reservations and brand-level metadata defaults, re-evaluate
  direction against the wider crawl. See § Prep mode below.
  Typically invoked via the `prepare-migration` orchestrator.
- `--add-variant <name>` — optional. Add a new variant against
  the existing direction without re-running intent reasoning or
  mode detection. Writes `DESIGN-<name>.{md,json}` at the
  project root and appends a per-variant section to
  `stardust/direction.md`; existing prototypes are **not**
  stale-flagged. See § Add-variant mode below.

## Setup

1. Run the master skill's setup
   (`skills/stardust/SKILL.md` § Setup) — hard impeccable dep check,
   context loader, state read.
2. Verify `stardust/state.json` exists and contains at least one
   `extracted` page. If not, stop and recommend
   `$stardust extract <url>` first.
3. Read `stardust/current/_brand-extraction.json`. If absent, stop —
   extract did not complete brand-surface extraction; re-run extract.
3b. **Cross-site brand inputs** (when present). `state.json.designSource`
   (design-donor mode: Mode A pins bind to the donor's derived
   system) and `_brand-extraction.json.origins[]` (sibling-property
   evidence: widens what can be amplified, not what is pinned).
   Read `reference/cross-site-brand-inputs.md` for the pin and
   evidence rules; surface the active mode in the plan.
4. Read `stardust/direction.md` if present. If a prior direction
   exists and `--re-direct` was not passed, ask whether the user wants
   to refine the existing direction or replace it.
5. **Validate provenance** (prep mode only). When `--prep` is
   active, run the provenance validation per
   `reference/prep-mode.md` before typing or module detection.
6. **Classify the captured brand signal.** Read
   `_brand-extraction.json` and stamp one of:
   - `signal-strong` — palette has ≥ 3 distinct colors (after
     near-duplicate clustering and excluding pure black/white if they
     are the only entries) **AND** at least one captured type family
     is named in `type.headingFamily.name` or `type.bodyFamily.name`.
     This is the common case for any extracted commercial site.
   - `signal-thin` — palette has 2 colors OR no captured type family
     OR `type.scaleAudit.kind === "ad-hoc"` with fewer than 3
     distinct heading sizes. The brand exists but cannot fully
     anchor a refresh.
   - `signal-absent` — palette has 1 color or 0, or
     `_brand-extraction.json._provenance.notes` flags the extraction
     as failed / login-walled / iframe-dominated.
   The classification feeds the Mode-detection precedence in Phase 2.
   Surface the classification in the plan when it would change the
   default mode.

## Procedure

### Phase 1 — Reasoning

Run the full intent-reasoning procedure from
`skills/stardust/reference/intent-reasoning.md`. Steps 1-6: restate
the phrase in dimensional vocabulary, identify movement, identify
gaps, ask **at most two** clarifying questions, map to an impeccable
command sequence, show the plan to the user.

Worked examples in
`skills/stardust/reference/intent-examples.md` calibrate the style.
Hard ceiling on questions: two per turn, no exceptions.

**Zero movement is not a direction — hand off to `replica`.** Before
restating, check whether the phrase pins every axis unchanged: "exact
replica", "same design", "pixel-perfect", "faithful", "keep the current
design", "1:1", "re-platform only", "preserve verbatim", or
`ia-fidelity: verbatim` with palette, type and density all pinned. That
is a same-design migration and `direct` has nothing to decide: write a
one-paragraph note to `stardust/direction.md` ("zero-movement phrase —
same-design migration; the direction is the mechanical promotion in
`replica` Phase 2"), stamp `state.json.flow: "replica"` if unset
(`../stardust/reference/state-machine.md` § Flow keys), and stop with
"run `$stardust replica <url>`". Never continue into a redesign
direction, a `--prep` module catalog or a plan on such a phrase — under
hands-off included: "ask nothing" below never means "proceed on a
replica phrase". (Recorded: `direct` invoked with "exact replica —
preserve verbatim" kept going; 2,207 pages were published at 24–28 %
pixel diff, four to five times the replica pass bar.)

**Hands-off mode** (per `skills/stardust/SKILL.md` § Hands-off mode,
`state.json.handsOff: true`): ask nothing and wait for nothing — after
the zero-movement check above, which hands-off does not skip.
Derive every answer the questions would have collected from the
captured evidence — density and ia-fidelity from their documented
defaults and trigger conditions, audience and register from the
captured surface — and record each as a named assumption in
`direction.md` § Movements (e.g. `density: balanced (hands-off
default — multi-audience floor fired)`). The plan is still written;
execution proceeds without the confirmation gate. Question budgets
and gates below that say "ask the user" resolve the same way: derive,
stamp the assumption, proceed.

#### Density tuning (one-shot, only when unmoved)

When the user's phrase does **not** move the `density` axis (per
`reference/intent-dimensions.md` § 4), and the resolved register is
`brand`, ask one short follow-up — count it within the two-question
ceiling:

> Density tuning — (a) airy (NYT-Opinion-tier breathing, ~96px
> section padding), (b) balanced (calm but compact, ~64–72px),
> (c) packed (data-dense, ~40–48px). Default for brand-register
> sites with multi-audience IA is **(b) balanced**; pick (a) only
> when the page is editorial-led with deep per-section density.

If the user answers, stamp the chosen tier in `direction.md` §
Movements as `density: <tier>`. If unanswered, default to
**balanced** (not airy) for brand register and stamp
`density: balanced (default)`.

Skip this question entirely when:
- The user's phrase already moved `density` (any of "make it
  denser", "more breathing room", "compact", "tight", "spacious"
  count as movement).
- The register is `product` (default `packed` per § 4).
- The register is `ambiguous` and resolving it earlier in the
  reasoning is the higher-value question — defer density to the
  next turn rather than burning a question slot.

Phase 4 reads the stamped tier to set `spacing.sectionPadding`;
it never re-asks.

#### IA-fidelity tuning (one-shot, only when unmoved)

When the user's phrase does **not** auto-pin `ia-fidelity` (per
`reference/intent-dimensions.md` § 9 — i.e. none of *"verbatim"*,
*"same IA"*, *"keep the structure"*, *"swap the surface"*,
*"don't rethink the IA"* and none of *"reimagine"*, *"rethink"*,
*"deeper redesign"*, *"what if"* appear), ask one short follow-up
— count it within the two-question ceiling:

> IA fidelity — (a) verbatim (same section sequence, same content
> beats; variants explore surface only: color, type, density,
> motion), or (b) reimagined (variants may demote / promote / drop
> sections, move IA priorities, take "what if" positions on the
> spine of the page).
> Default (b) for the typical refresh; pick (a) when the customer
> asked to keep their site structurally identical and only swap
> the surface.

If the user answers, stamp the chosen tier in `direction.md` §
Movements as `ia-fidelity: <tier>`. If unanswered, default to
**reimagined** and stamp `ia-fidelity: reimagined (default)`.

Skip this question entirely when:
- The user's phrase already auto-pinned the axis (any trigger phrase
  in § 9 — *"same IA, swap the surface"* → verbatim;
  *"what if we rethought the home page"* → reimagined).
- An existing `direction.md` is being refined (the active tier holds
  unless the user explicitly re-pins).

Phase 4 stamps the tier into `iaPriorities[].mutability`;
downstream `prototype` reads it.

Pair this question with the density-tuning question when both are
unmoved — *"two things to pin before we resolve: (1) density …, (2)
IA fidelity …"* — to stay within the two-question ceiling. If
resolving register (brand vs product) is also outstanding, prioritise
register first; defer one of density / ia-fidelity to the next turn.

Wait for the user's confirmation (`"go"`, or a correction to the
plan) before moving on.

### Phase 2 — Resolve the divergence inputs

Once the plan is confirmed, resolve the divergence-toolkit inputs
from `skills/stardust/reference/divergence-toolkit.md`. Before
rolling the seed, run the mode-detection precedence below to decide
whether the seed needs rolling at all.

#### Mode-detection precedence (run first)

The default mode for `direct` is determined by whether an extracted
brand surface exists with usable signal — **not** by the user's
freeform phrase alone. Ambiguous refresh phrases ("make it modern",
"stunning new version", "design fatigue cure") are migration-shaped
asks, not rebrand triggers. The precedence is asymmetric on purpose:
the safer mode (Mode A — brand-faithful) catches ambiguous phrases;
the riskier rebrand mode requires the user to name it.

1. **Site migration / refresh — DEFAULT.** When the captured brand
   signal stamped in § Setup step 6 is `signal-strong`, Mode A is
   active by default. The user's phrase moves *expressive*,
   *distinctiveness*, *tone*, and *density* axes inside Mode A — but
   palette and type are pinned to the captured surface, and the
   image-reuse contract (below) holds. **Signature preservation also
   holds:** a captured signature hero medium (background video /
   canvas / Lottie / scroll-motion, elevated as
   `_brand-extraction.json#voice.heroMedium`) or a site-wide motif is
   reproduced, not flattened — per `skills/stardust/reference/
   intent-dimensions.md` § 8b, and exempt from the `surprise` budget.
   Surface in the plan:
   *"Brand-faithful mode active — palette and type pinned to the
   captured brand surface. Pass `--rebrand` to override."*

2. **Rebrand — explicit opt-in.** Mode A is overridden when **any**
   of the following triggers fire:
   - The user's phrase contains an explicit rebrand signal: any of
     `rebrand`, `new brand`, `clean slate`, `start over`,
     `from scratch`, `replace the brand`, `not brand-faithful`,
     `editorial reimagination`, `completely new`, `redo the brand`.
   - The `--rebrand` flag is passed.
   - Captured signal is `signal-absent` (no usable inheritance).
     Surface this case as an automatic switch with reason; the user
     can correct.

   In rebrand mode, run the standard divergence-seed roll per
   "Default mode (no constraints)" below. Surface in the plan:
   *"Rebrand mode active — full divergence-seed roll. Mode A
   bypassed because <reason>."*

3. **Brand-faithful + targeted exploration.** When the user requests
   N variants (e.g. *"3 variants"*, *"4 directions"*) and Mode A is
   active, the variant role contract in `reference/multi-variant.md`
   applies (trigger: § Phase 2.6). Variant A is locked to **strict Mode A** (palette and
   type pinned, IA preserved, every improvements-list item applied).
   Variants B+ may amplify one **captured** trait (a motif, a photo
   treatment, an IA priority the current site underplays) but
   cannot:
   - introduce a font outside the captured surface,
   - introduce a color outside the captured palette,
   - shift the register from PRODUCT.md.

4. **Signal-thin fallback.** When captured signal is `signal-thin`,
   Mode A activates but warns: *"Captured brand surface is thin —
   {reason}. Variants will inherit what is available; some
   dimensions will need to be filled by the divergence toolkit."*
   The user may either re-run extract with a wider crawl
   (`--cap 25`) or proceed with reduced fidelity.

After mode-detection completes, run the existing mode definitions
below (Mode A procedure, Mode B anchor-reference precedence, Mode C
ground-family override) as applicable.

#### Mode A — Brand-faithful mode

Triggered automatically when the captured brand signal is
`signal-strong` and no rebrand-mode override fired (see
§ Mode-detection precedence above), OR when the user pinned **both**
type and palette (via explicit phrase: "keep typography and palette",
"preserve the existing brand", "brand-faithful redesign"; or via
constraints listing both as anchors).

In this mode, direct does **not** roll the type or palette
dimensions of the seed — they are already locked.

The mode procedure:

1. Record `font_deck.name = "brand-inherited"` and
   `font_deck.picked_by = "user-constraint"`. Do not invoke
   `reference/palette-picker.md`.
2. Record `palette.source = "inherited from _brand-extraction.json"`
   and `palette.picked_by = "user-constraint"`. Apply role-renaming
   per toolkit § 4 if the inherited names violate the brand-native
   rule (this is still useful — role renaming is presentational,
   not a divergence choice).
3. **Still roll** the seed for the **non-locked** dimensions
   (decade, register, ground-family-as-applicable per Mode C
   below). These dimensions still drive divergence — the visual
   register and the era can shift even when type and palette are
   pinned.
4. Auto-emit the `brand_faithful_inversions[]` block in
   `extensions.divergence` per
   `reference/direction-format.md` § Brand-faithful inversions.
   The list is mostly mechanical (see § Brand-faithful inversions
   in direction-format.md for the canonical patterns).
5. Surface in the user report which dimensions had teeth and
   which were inert:

   ```
   Divergence (brand-faithful mode):
     decade           ✓ rolled    → 2025-now
     craft            ✓ rolled    → Riso print
     register         ✓ rolled    → Memoir-adjacent
     ground-family    inherited   → stark-white (brand-native)
     font deck        inherited   → existing site stack
     palette          inherited   → existing 5-color set
   ```

6. **Image-reuse contract.** Captured images are reused via their
   public URLs (or the local copies in
   `stardust/current/assets/media/` written by extract Phase 2)
   **at the same semantic position** as on the source site. Hero
   stays hero. Story-tile portrait stays story-tile portrait.
   Program-card image stays program-card image. Background-motif
   image stays background motif.

   This is part of brand-faithful inheritance: swapping a captured
   portrait for a placeholder, or demoting the hero photo to a
   thumbnail, erases the brand's most load-bearing trust signal.

   The only legitimate ways to deviate from semantic
   position-preservation under Mode A:

   - The captured image is broken (404, blocked by `referrer-policy`,
     CORS-walled, or recorded with `localPath: null` and a
     `downloadError`).
   - The brand-review surfaced the image as a tension (e.g.
     `T-stock-photography` when added — flagging the captured
     image as obviously templated stock that the brand team would
     replace anyway).
   - The improvements list (Phase 2.5) explicitly notes a crop or
     positioning fix for that image — in which case the same
     image is reused at the corrected crop or position.

   Synthesised placeholders are forbidden under Mode A. When a
   captured image cannot be reused, the prototype shape brief
   declares the gap explicitly and the rendered prototype shows a
   placeholder-with-signature element so reviewers see the gap
   rather than a fabricated photo.

The user can correct the mode at the plan-confirmation gate (e.g.
"actually let me move the palette" or "actually rebrand it")
before it locks.

#### Mode A+ — Brand-adjacent refinement (bounded, evidence-gated)

The middle tier between Mode A's hard pins and `--rebrand`: when
the improvements list (Phase 2.5) names a captured type or color
weakness with evidence, bounded same-classification upgrades are
permitted — each audited in `extensions.divergence.
brand_adjacent_refinements[]`, never active by default. Read
`reference/mode-a-plus.md` before applying any refinement.

#### Mode B — Anchor-reference precedence

When the user provides anchor references (Q1/Q2 answers like
"Pentagram nonprofits, This American Life, NYT Opinion longform"),
those references **already imply** seed dimensions (Pentagram →
decade `2025-now` editorial; This American Life → register
`Memoir`-adjacent). Do not roll dimensions the references already
imply.

**Agent-sourced anchors (default when the user provides none).**
Mode B no longer waits for the user to name references: run the
reference-research procedure
(`skills/stardust/reference/reference-research.md`) to source 3–5
real-world anchors matched to the brand's category, register, and the
resolved direction movement. Researched anchors carry the same
implied-dimension weight as user-provided ones and are recorded as
`picked_by: "reasoned: <anchor>"` with the full citation in
`extensions.divergence.references_used[]`. User-provided references
always outrank researched ones on conflict. When research is
unavailable (ladder exhausted per reference-research.md § 1), Mode B
degrades to the deterministic roll for the un-implied dimensions.

Precedence rule:

1. If anchor references are present, extract their implied
   dimensions:
   - **Decade** from era of the references (Pentagram → 2025-now;
     vintage Penguin → 1960s).
   - **Craft** from medium of the references (TAL → audio editorial
     ≠ a craft per se, but Bandcamp → web-print hybrid; Riso-print
     anthology → Riso).
   - **Register** from cultural reference set (Memoir, Tabloid,
     Catalogue, etc.).
   - **Ground-family** from typical ground of those references
     (NYT Opinion → cream/parchment; Pentagram nonprofit →
     stark-white or monochrome-tint).
2. Mark each implied dimension as
   `picked_by = "anchor-reference: <ref-name>"`.
3. Roll the seed only for **un-implied** dimensions.
4. Record the anchor → dimension mapping in
   `extensions.divergence.seed.anchors[]`.

Mode B can compose with Mode A: anchor-references narrow the seed,
brand-faithful constraints lock type/palette, the remaining roll
is whatever the anchors didn't already imply.

#### Mode C — Brand-faithful ground-family override

When Mode A is active **and** the seed's `ground_family` roll
disagrees with the brand's existing ground (e.g. seed rolled
`monochrome-tint` but the brand's captured background is
`#ffffff` stark-white), the brand's ground wins. The seed roll is
not discarded — it informs the **alt-section surface** instead
(per `divergence-toolkit.md` § 4 Color roles). Record the override
in `extensions.divergence.seed.ground_family.override` with one
of three reasons:

- `brand-faithful` — Mode A active and brand has a fixed ground.
- `print-paper` — manual override for print/paper categories
  (existing toolkit rule).
- `direction-driven` — seed wins (default; no override).

The three reasons are mutually exclusive; surface the chosen one
in the user report.

#### Default mode (no constraints)

When neither Mode A nor Mode B applies (rebrand or thin-signal runs
with no user anchors), the procedure is **research-first, roll as
fallback**:

- **Reference research first.** Run
  `skills/stardust/reference/reference-research.md` to source
  anchors for the brand's category and the resolved direction, and
  derive the dimensions they imply (`picked_by: "reasoned: <basis>"`).
  This is Mode B's machinery applied to agent-sourced anchors — see
  § Mode B above.
- **Seed as fallback + tiebreaker.** Roll the 4-dimension seed
  (decade × craft × register × ground-family) per § 2 of the toolkit
  **only** for dimensions research left un-implied, or entirely when
  research is unavailable. The roll also remains available as a
  deliberate convergence-breaker when the self-audit catches the
  model reproducing its defaults despite research. Record
  `picked_by` per dimension.
- **Font deck.** Pick from the 10 named decks per § 3, letting the
  researched anchors inform the pick the same way a seed implication
  would (e.g. an editorial-serif anchor set → `serif-luxury`). When
  neither research nor seed implies a deck, pick deterministically
  from the hash.
- **Palette.** If the resolved direction moves the color-energy
  axis or names the existing palette as part of the problem: derive
  a full role-ramped palette (text, grounds, borders, accents,
  states) from the primary researched anchor or a library candidate
  — the library (`skills/direct/reference/palette-picker.md`) is an
  **anchor bank**, not a closed menu; the model designs the ramp and
  validates every text-on-ground pair for WCAG AA before it lands
  in tokens (deterministic where it matters — math — not where it
  hurts — taste). Record the derivation basis in
  `extensions.divergence.palette_source`. Otherwise inherit
  the existing palette from
  `stardust/current/_brand-extraction.json`, applying role-renaming
  per toolkit § 4 if the inherited names violate the brand-native
  rule.

#### Always run

- **Anti-toolbox audit.** Regardless of mode, run the self-audit
  (toolkit § 1 Enforcement + Self-audit) on the resolved direction.
  Each anti-toolbox hit needs a brand-specific justification or it
  is removed.

Record every resolution in `DESIGN.json.extensions.divergence` per
the v2 storage shape at the bottom of `divergence-toolkit.md`.

### Phase 2.5 — Improvements list (Mode A only)

Before any variant is rendered downstream, write
`stardust/prototypes/<slug>-improvements.md` listing **3–5 specific
weaknesses** observed in the captured site. It is the brief variant
A renders against: **not** prescriptive (no visual targets), but
**descriptive of the gap** between the existing site and a competent
2026 execution of the same brand. Variants B+ honor the list as a
floor (they may go further but not contradict it).

Skip this phase when the resolved mode is rebrand — the improvements
list assumes brand-faithful inheritance, and a rebrand replaces the
site rather than fixing it.

**Audit reuse.** When `stardust/audit/<domain-slug>/audit.json`
exists for this origin (written by the stardust `audit` skill), consume its
design findings as candidate improvements instead of re-deriving from
scratch — carry the finding IDs into each item's evidence citation.
The specificity bar below still applies to every carried item.

#### What goes in the list

The list draws from five categories. Items should be specific enough
that a downstream `prototype` shape brief can cite them by number.

1. **Dated patterns** the design world has moved past — name the
   pattern and its era, not a feeling.
2. **Cluttered IA** — unclear hierarchy, weak or redundant CTAs,
   fragmented conversion funnels.
3. **Contrast failures, accessibility gaps, density issues** — pull
   from `brand-review.html` Tensions when present
   (`T-color-imbalance`, `T-img-alt-empty`, etc.).
4. **Cliché conventions** the brand could move past while staying
   recognisably itself.
5. **Missed opportunities** the existing site doesn't capitalise on.

Worked examples per category:
`reference/improvements-list.md`.

#### Specificity bar

A weakness is specific enough when it cites:
- a measurable observation (size, ratio, contrast value, count, or
  named tension ID) drawn from the per-page JSON, the brand-review,
  or the brand-extraction;
- the design pattern at fault (named, e.g. "centered hero + dual CTA");
- one concrete fix the variant A brief will apply.

*"The hero needs work"* fails all three. *"Hero photo is cropped to
280×180 in a 1440-wide viewport when the captured source supports
16:9 full-bleed at 1440×810; variant A fix: render at full-bleed and
move the headline to a left-anchored two-column overlay"* passes all
three.

#### Format

Markdown, with a `_provenance` frontmatter block per the artifact-map
convention. Each item is a numbered list entry with a category tag, a
weakness statement, and a one-line fix. Full worked example in
`reference/improvements-list.md` § Format example.

#### Stopping condition

If after reading the brand-review, the per-page JSON, and the
brand-extraction the agent **cannot name 3 specific weaknesses**
that meet the specificity bar, stop. Variant A has no brief; the
"better" claim fails. See § Failure modes (d).

The agent should not rationalise — *"the hero is dated"* is not an
item, *"the typography could be more modern"* is not an item.
Genuine empty-list cases occur when the captured site is already at
a high execution level on observable dimensions. In that case the
honest answer is to surface the empty list and propose reduced
scope (density-and-contrast adjustments only, or pivot to a single
exploratory variant rather than three).

### Phase 2.6 — Multi-variant fork (when N > 1)

When the user requests N variants (phrase contains *"3 variants"*,
*"4 directions"*, or equivalent), variant slots are
**role-differentiated**, not seed-differentiated. Branch on the
`ia-fidelity` tier stamped in Phase 1: surface-tuning forks
A1/A2/A3 under `verbatim`; role-differentiated A + B + C (faithful
+ improvements / one captured trait amplified / a different
captured trait amplified) under `reimagined`. Read
`reference/multi-variant.md` and follow its variant role contract,
differentiation contract (each variant pair differs by ≥ 2
substantive changes), surface-fork rules, and render-refusal
conditions before resolving any variant.

### Phase 3 — Author target PRODUCT.md

Write `PRODUCT.md` at the project root using impeccable's
`reference/init.md` § Write PRODUCT.md as the **format spec** (not as
a runtime command to invoke; `init`, formerly `teach`, runs an
interview). Direct authoring is intentional: by the time `direct`
runs, every answer impeccable's interview would surface has already
been resolved through stardust's intent-reasoning + divergence
resolution above.

File order: stardust's `<!-- stardust:provenance … -->` block first
(per `../stardust/reference/artifact-map.md` § Provenance, as for
every stardust-written artifact), then `# Product`, then the
`<!-- impeccable:product-schema 1 -->` comment verbatim so impeccable
reads the file as a current product record rather than a legacy one.
Omit a section rather than filling it with generic prose. Sections to
populate:

- **Platform** — the bare value `web`.
- **Users** — from the resolved audience tuple plus tone signals from
  the extracted brand surface.
- **Product Purpose** — from the user's phrase + extracted hero copy
  + resolved tone, written as a one-line value statement followed by
  one-line scope.
- **Positioning** — the claim the site makes that a neighbour could
  not truthfully copy, from the extracted hero and proof copy. Mark
  inferred when the copy does not state it.
- **Capabilities and Constraints** — the resolved constraint set
  (`a11y-first`, `RTL-required`, platform or content constraints) and
  any product fact the user pinned.
- **Brand Commitments** — the binding identity decisions: the resolved
  `register` axis, the brand personality derived from the resolved
  expressive axis + tone + reference set (weight axes the user
  explicitly moved over inherited values), and the anti-references —
  the user's stated anti-refs **plus** any anti-toolbox guardrails
  relevant to the resolved direction (e.g. "modernise" triggers the
  Generic-2026-SaaS silhouette guardrail; list it explicitly so
  prototype and polish enforce it).
- **Evidence on Hand** — the captured copy, imagery and proof under
  `stardust/current/` with paths, and the absences future work must
  not fabricate (no testimonials captured, no pricing, …).
- **Product Principles** — 3-5 durable strategic principles, each
  mapping to a specific axis movement. Format: one verb-led principle,
  one-line elaboration. No visual recipes; those belong in DESIGN.md.
- **Accessibility & Inclusion** — populated when the constraint set

Where a section cannot be populated with confidence from inputs,
