Cathryn Lavery dbc4abd965 feat(skill): pre-draw checkpoint, docs-sync gate, packaged self-check, ADRs
- SKILL.md: confirm type/pattern/size/cuts with the user before rendering;
  checklist hooks for the checkpoint and the packaged self-check
- scripts/verify-docs-sync.py: CI now fails when the frontmatter description
  loses a type's lexical hook, the gallery can't reach a shipped example, or
  the README tree names a missing file
- skills/diagram-design/scripts/self_check.py: distilled output checker that
  ships with the skill so installed agents can verify their own diagrams;
  adversarial suite in scripts/test-self-check.py
- assets/index.html: six new tabs (OAuth sequence + five single-variant
  examples with a data-single variant lock) so every shipped example is
  browsable
- docs/adr/0001-0004: settled policies recorded (pinned controller, taxonomy
  freeze, reveal-only autoplay, byte cap + trigger-rich description)
- README: It's-working-if section, new gates documented; CONTRIBUTING: gate
  table, ADR guidance, type-addition invariants; CI: two new steps

ADR 0001 — Static by default; one pinned controller for motion

Status: accepted (v2.3)

Context

Diagrams are shared as single HTML files and embedded in posts, decks, and docs. Arbitrary inline JavaScript in a shareable artifact is both a security surface and a review burden: every generated file would need its script audited. Motion, however, genuinely clarifies ordered change (queues filling, policy traces diverging).

Decision

Output is static and script-free by default (data-motion-mode="none"). When motion is requested, the file may carry exactly one <script data-diagram-controls> block whose body must byte-match the reviewed controller in assets/template-motion.html. The match is enforced twice: SHA-256 in lint-skin.py and string equality in verify-motion.py; the packaged scripts/self_check.py repeats the check for installed agents.

Consequences

  • Any behavior change to motion is a change to template-motion.html, reviewed once, and re-propagated verbatim; hand-edited controllers fail every gate.
  • The controller cannot be extended per-diagram. A diagram needing bespoke interaction is out of scope for this skill.
  • The check anchors to the template in the same commit, so a PR that weakens template and copies together still passes the identity check — reviewer attention on template-motion.html diffs is the real gate.
