+# Credential and access routing
+
+**Audience:** Codex, Claude Code, Grok, and custodian agents that call **llm-connect**
+for inference. Run this check **before** requesting secrets, API keys, SSH access,
+login tokens, or database passwords — in any repo, not only `ops-warden`.
+
+ops-warden **issues SSH certificates only** (`warden sign`, `cert_command`). Every
+other credential need belongs to another subsystem. **Do not** message
+`ops-warden` on State Hub expecting a secret value; the reply is a pointer, not a key.
+
+### Lookup (do this first)
+
+```bash
+warden route find "<describe your need>" --json
+warden route show <catalog-id> --json
+```
+
+Requires the `warden` CLI from `~/ops-warden` (`uv tool install .` or `uv run warden`).
+
+| Agent runtime | How to orient |
+| --- | --- |
+| **Codex / Grok** (shell, HTTP State Hub) | `warden route` commands above; inbox `to_agent=whynot-design` is for coordination, not secret vending |
+| **Claude Code** (MCP when available) | `get_domain_summary("custodian")` for workstreams; **still** use `warden route` for credential ownership |
+| **llm-connect** (inference service) | Never put secret retrieval in prompts; route custody to OpenBao/operator paths surfaced by `warden route` |
+
+### Quick routing table
+
+| I need… | Owner | ops-warden executes? |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| SSH cert (`adm`/`agt`/`atm`) | ops-warden | **Yes** — `warden sign` |
+| API key, DB password, provider token | OpenBao (`railiance-platform`) | No — route only |
+| Login / OIDC / MFA | key-cape / Keycloak | No — route only |
+| Authorization decision | flex-auth | No — route only |
+| activity-core → issue-core emission | activity-core + issue-core | No — `warden route show activity-core-issue-sink` |
+| SSH tunnel | ops-bridge (+ `cert_command` from warden) | No — route only |
+
+### Anti-patterns (do not do these)
+
+- `POST /messages/` to `ops-warden` asking for `ISSUE_CORE_API_KEY`, `OPENROUTER_API_KEY`, etc.
+- Inventing `warden secret`, `warden login`, `warden bao`, `warden tunnel` — they do not exist
+- Pasting secrets into Git, State Hub, workplans, logs, or chat
+
+### Other capabilities (reuse-surface)
+
+Non-credential capabilities are usually discovered through **reuse-surface** federation
+(`reuse-surface` registry / `capability.*` indexes). Credential routing is inlined in
+every repo's agent instructions because it is high-frequency, high-risk, and easy to
+get wrong.

+## First Session Protocol
+
+Triggered when `get_domain_summary("consumer")` shows **no workstreams**.
+The project is registered but work has not yet been structured.
+
+**Step 1 — Read, don't write**
+- `~/the-custodian/canon/projects/consumer/project_charter_v0.1.md` — purpose, scope
+- `~/the-custodian/canon/projects/consumer/roadmap_v0.1.md` — planned phases
+- Scan repo root: README, directory structure, existing code or docs
+
+**Step 2 — Survey in-progress work**
+Look for TODOs, open branches, half-finished files. Note done vs. started but incomplete.
+
+**Step 3 — Propose workstreams to Bernd**
+Propose 1–3 workstreams — each a coherent strand, weeks to months, anchored to a
+roadmap phase. **Wait for approval before creating.**
+
+**Step 4 — Create workplan file first, then DB record (ADR-001)**
+```
+workplans/WHYNOT-WP-NNNN-<slug>.md   ← write this first
+```
+Then register in the hub:
+```
+create_workstream(topic_id="cee7bedf-2b48-46ef-8601-006474f2ad7a", title="...", owner="...", description="...")
+create_task(workstream_id="<id>", title="...", priority="high|medium|low")
+```
+
+**Step 5 — Record the setup**
+```
+add_progress_event(
+    summary="First session: structured consumer into N workstreams, M tasks",
+    event_type="milestone",

+## Session Protocol
+
+Dev Hub (State Hub API): http://127.0.0.1:8000
+MCP server name in `~/.claude.json`: `dev-hub`
+
+**Step 1 — Orient**
+
+Read the offline-safe brief first — it works without a live hub connection:
+```bash
+cat .custodian-brief.md
+```
+Then call the MCP tool for richer cross-domain context when MCP tools are exposed:
+```
+get_domain_summary("consumer")
+```
+If MCP tools are unavailable in the current agent session, use the REST API:
+```bash
+curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8000/state/summary" | python3 -m json.tool
+```
+If the hub is offline: `cd ~/state-hub && make api`
+
+**Step 2 — Check inbox**
+With MCP tools:
+```
+get_messages(to_agent="whynot-design", unread_only=True)
+```
+Mark read with `mark_message_read(message_id)`. Reply or act on coordination
+requests before proceeding.
+
+Without MCP tools:
+```bash
+curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8000/messages/?to_agent=whynot-design&unread_only=true" \
+  | python3 -m json.tool
+curl -s -X PATCH "http://127.0.0.1:8000/messages/<id>/read" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{}'
+```
+
+**Step 3 — Scan workplans**
+```bash
+ls workplans/
+```
+For each file with `status: ready`, `active`, or `blocked`, note pending
+`wait`/`todo`/`progress` tasks.
+
+**Step 4 — Present brief**
+
+1. **Active workstreams** for `consumer` — title, task counts, blocking decisions
+2. **Pending tasks** from `workplans/` + any `[repo:whynot-design]` hub tasks
+3. **Goal guidance** — if `goal_guidance` in summary:
+   - `needs_workplan`: surface as top action — *"Repo goal '{title}' has no workplan yet"*
+   - `alignment_warnings`: flag if active work is not aligned with current goal
+4. **Suggested next action** — highest-priority open item
+5. **SBOM status** — flag if `last_sbom_at` is unset for this repo
+
+If no workstreams: follow First Session Protocol (`first-session.md`).
+
+**During work:** `record_decision()` · `add_progress_event()` · `resolve_decision()`
+
+> State Hub is a *read model*. Bootstrap tools (`create_workstream`, `create_task`)
+> are First Session Protocol only. Work structure belongs in repo files (ADR-001).
+
+**Session close:**
+With MCP tools:
+```
+add_progress_event(summary="...", topic_id="cee7bedf-2b48-46ef-8601-006474f2ad7a", workstream_id="<uuid>")
+```
+Without MCP tools:
+```bash
+curl -s -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/progress/ \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"topic_id":"cee7bedf-2b48-46ef-8601-006474f2ad7a","workstream_id":"<uuid>","event_type":"note","summary":"what changed","author":"codex"}'
+```
+If workplan files were modified, ensure the local copy is up to date first:
+```bash
+git -C <repo_path> pull --ff-only
+cd ~/state-hub && make fix-consistency REPO=whynot-design
+```
+For repos where implementation runs on a remote machine (e.g. CoulombCore),
+use the combined target which pulls before fixing:
+```bash
+cd ~/state-hub && make fix-consistency-remote REPO=whynot-design
+```
+**C-15** (DB task ahead of file) is normal in multi-machine workflows — writeback
+will sync the file to match DB.  **C-16** (repo behind remote) blocks all writes
+until you pull — intentional to prevent clobbering remote progress.

+## Stack
+
+- **Language:** ES modules (no build step, no transpile — source ships as-is).
+- **Key deps:** `lit` ^3 (web components, the one runtime dep); `@playwright/test` (the one dev dep, visual regression).
+- **Components:** shadow-DOM Lit elements that adopt a shared stylesheet so the Layer 1 `.wn-*` utility classes work inside the shadow root. `src/elements/_styles.js` is **auto-generated** from `src/styles/components.css` by `scripts/sync-shared-styles.mjs` — never hand-edit it.
+
+## Dev Commands
+
+```bash
+pnpm install
+pnpm showcase                 # serve :4321 → /examples/showcase/  (every component)
+pnpm example                  # serve :4322 → examples/whynot-control
+pnpm test:visual              # Playwright visual-regression run (auto-starts a static server)
+pnpm test:visual:update       # regenerate screenshot baselines after an intentional change
+pnpm check                    # check-changelog: fails if CHANGELOG.md gained no entry vs main
+npx playwright test -g "inbox"  # run a single visual test by name
+
+make                          # list make targets (help is the default goal)
+make designbook-sync          # after a /design-sync pull, record changes + last-sync time → RecentChanges.md
+make designbook-check         # ask Claude Design (via llm-connect) if the cloud is newer; warn if mirror is stale
+make recent-changes           # regenerate RecentChanges.md (alias; ARGS="--range main..HEAD" supported)
+make sync-styles              # = node scripts/sync-shared-styles.mjs
+```
+
+There is no unit-test suite — correctness is verified by full-page Playwright screenshot diffs of the two `examples/` pages (`tests/visual/ui-kit.spec.mjs`, `maxDiffPixelRatio: 0.005`). Any visual change needs `pnpm test:visual:update` + baseline review.
+
+## Integrating the designbook
+
+The **designbook** is the upstream atelier — the **Claude Design project** (cloud, `claude.ai/design`), source of truth for the *language*. Its local mirror lives in-repo at `designbook/` (see `designbook/README.md`). Sync is **agent-driven and incremental** (one component at a time, never a wholesale replace):
+
+1. **Pull** — run `/design-sync` in Claude Code (the `DesignSync` tool over the claude.ai login); it writes into `designbook/`. Immediately stamp the time: `node scripts/designbook-sync.mjs --mark-synced`. A Makefile cannot invoke the MCP tool, so the pull is always an agent step.
+2. **Record** — `make designbook-sync` runs `scripts/designbook-sync.mjs`, writing `RecentChanges.md`: a **snapshot** (not a log) of what changed across `designbook/` + the derived surfaces (`tokens/`, `src/styles/`, `src/elements/`, `examples/`), grouped by layer.
+
+**Freshness** is tracked in `designbook/.design-sync.json` (`lastSyncAt`, `remoteUpdatedAt`, `projectId`, `projectName`). Every report states **"Last /design-sync: <datetime>"** so it's clear whether the snapshot reflects the latest design. The cloud-ahead check is backed by **llm-connect** (`make designbook-check` → `scripts/check_designbook_staleness.py`): it uses the `claude-code` adapter to ask the local `claude` binary for the project's current `updatedAt` via `DesignSync.list_projects`, then records it with `node scripts/designbook-sync.mjs --remote-updated <iso>`. Only the `claude-code` adapter can reach the user's Claude Design project (Gemini/OpenRouter/OpenAI cannot), and no secret goes in the prompt — DesignSync uses the claude.ai login (see `credential-routing.md`). The check needs `llm_connect` importable; the Makefile auto-selects `~/llm-connect/.venv/bin/python`. Use `--remote-updated <iso>` to run the comparison offline/manually, or `--fail-if-stale` (exit 3) in automation. When `remoteUpdatedAt` is newer than `lastSyncAt`, the report and stdout **warn that the local mirror is OUTDATED** until the next `/design-sync`. If no sync was ever recorded, it warns that `/design-sync` has not run. The reporter is deterministic (built from `git status`/`git diff`), only writes the working tree, never commits, and never edits `designbook/` content. Fold notable entries into `CHANGELOG.md` under `## [Unreleased]` before releasing — `RecentChanges.md` is overwritten every run and is **not** the CI-enforced artifact.

+## Workplan Convention (ADR-001)
+
+File location: `workplans/WHYNOT-WP-NNNN-<slug>.md`
+ID prefix: `WHYNOT-WP-`
+
+Work items originate as files in this repo **before** being registered in the hub.
+
+Canonical workplan/workstream frontmatter statuses are:
+`proposed`, `ready`, `active`, `blocked`, `backlog`, `finished`, `archived`.
+Use `proposed` for a newly drafted plan, `ready` after review against current
+repo state, and `finished` when implementation is complete. `stalled` and
+`needs_review` are derived health labels, not stored statuses.
+
+Closed workplans may be moved to `workplans/archived/` with a completion-date
+prefix: `YYMMDD-WHYNOT-WP-NNNN-<slug>.md`. The frontmatter id remains
+unchanged; the prefix is only for quick visual reference.
+
+Small opportunistic tasks discovered during another session use **Ad Hoc Tasks**:
+`workplans/ADHOC-YYYY-MM-DD.md`, workstream slug `adhoc-YYYY-MM-DD`, and task ids
+`ADHOC-YYYY-MM-DD-T01`, `T02`, etc. Use adhocs only for low-risk work completed
+directly. Promote anything requiring analysis, design, approval, dependencies, or
+multiple planned phases into a normal workplan.
+
+Ecosystem todos from other agents arrive as `[repo:whynot-design]` hub tasks —
+visible at session start. Pick one up by creating the workplan file, then registering
+the workstream.
+
+Task blocks use this shape:
+
+```task
+id: WHYNOT-WP-NNNN-T01
+status: wait | todo | progress | done | cancel
+priority: high | medium | low
+state_hub_task_id: "<uuid>"         # written by fix-consistency — do not edit
+```
+
+Status progression is `todo` → `progress` → `done`; use `wait` for waiting or
+blocked work and `cancel` for stopped work.

+## State Hub Integration
+
+The Custodian State Hub tracks work across all domains. Interact via HTTP REST —
+there is no MCP server for Codex agents.
+
+| Context | URL |
+|---------|-----|
+| Local workstation | `http://127.0.0.1:8000` |
+| Remote via tunnel | `http://127.0.0.1:18000` |
+
+### Orient at session start
+
+```bash
+# Offline brief — works without hub connection
+cat .custodian-brief.md
+
+# Active workstreams for this domain
+curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8000/workstreams/?topic_id=cee7bedf-2b48-46ef-8601-006474f2ad7a&status=active" \
+  | python3 -m json.tool
+
+# Check inbox
+curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8000/messages/?to_agent=whynot-design&unread_only=true" \
+  | python3 -m json.tool
+```
+
+Mark a message read:
+```bash
+curl -s -X PATCH "http://127.0.0.1:8000/messages/<id>/read" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{}'
+```
+
+### Log progress (required at session close)
+
+```bash
+curl -s -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/progress/ \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "summary": "what was done",

+    "author": "codex",
+    "workstream_id": "<uuid>",
+    "task_id": "<uuid>"
+  }'
+```
+
+Omit `workstream_id` / `task_id` when not applicable.
+
+### Update task status
+
+```bash
+curl -s -X PATCH "http://127.0.0.1:8000/tasks/<task_id>" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"status": "progress"}'

+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"needs_human": true, "intervention_note": "reason"}'
+```
+
+---
+
+## Session Protocol
+
+**Start:**
+1. `cat .custodian-brief.md` — domain goal and open workstreams (offline-safe)
+2. Check inbox: `GET /messages/?to_agent=whynot-design&unread_only=true`; mark read
+3. Scan workplans: `ls workplans/` — note `status: ready`, `active`, or `blocked` files and open tasks
+4. Check human-needed tasks: `GET /tasks/?needs_human=true`
+
+**During work:**
+- Update task statuses in workplan files as tasks progress
+- Record significant decisions via `POST /decisions/`
+
+**Close:**
+1. Update workplan file task statuses to reflect progress
+2. Log: `POST /progress/` with a summary of what changed
+3. Note for the custodian operator: after workplan file changes, run from
+   `~/state-hub`:
+   ```bash
+   make fix-consistency REPO=whynot-design
+   ```
+   This syncs task status from files into the hub DB.

+## Credential and access routing
+
+**Audience:** Codex, Claude Code, Grok, and custodian agents that call **llm-connect**
+for inference. Run this check **before** requesting secrets, API keys, SSH access,

+**File location:** `workplans/WHYNOT-WP-NNNN-<slug>.md`
+
+**Archived location:** finished workplans may move to
+`workplans/archived/YYMMDD-WHYNOT-WP-NNNN-<slug>.md`. The `YYMMDD` prefix is
+the completion/archive date; the frontmatter `id` does not change.
+
+**Ad Hoc Tasks:** small opportunistic fixes discovered during a session use
+`workplans/ADHOC-YYYY-MM-DD.md` with task ids `ADHOC-YYYY-MM-DD-T01`, etc. Use
+this only for low-risk work completed directly; create a normal workplan for
+anything needing analysis, design, approval, dependencies, or multiple phases.
+
+**Frontmatter:**
+
+```yaml
+---
+id: WHYNOT-WP-NNNN
+type: workplan
+title: "..."
+domain: infotech
+repo: whynot-design
+status: proposed | ready | active | blocked | backlog | finished | archived
+owner: codex
+topic_slug: ...
+created: "YYYY-MM-DD"
+updated: "YYYY-MM-DD"
+state_hub_workstream_id: "<uuid>"   # written by fix-consistency — do not edit
+---
+```
+
+Use `proposed` for a new draft, `ready` after review against current repo
+state, and `finished` after implementation. `stalled` and `needs_review` are
+derived health labels, not frontmatter statuses.
+
+**Task block format** (one per `##` section):
+
+```
+## Task Title
+
+` ` `task
+id: WHYNOT-WP-NNNN-T01
+status: wait | todo | progress | done | cancel
+priority: high | medium | low
+state_hub_task_id: "<uuid>"         # written by fix-consistency — do not edit
+` ` `
+
+Task description text.
+```
+
+Status progression: `todo` → `progress` → `done`; use `wait` for waiting/blocked work and `cancel` for stopped work.
+
+To create a new workplan:
+1. Write the file following the format above
+2. Notify the custodian operator to run `make fix-consistency REPO=whynot-design`
+   (or send a message to the hub agent via `POST /messages/`)

+## Why it exists
+
+The neutral, mostly-black-and-white visual language for **whynot** — Tegwick's prototype and market-signal organisation.
+
+The neutral, mostly-black-and-white visual language for **whynot** — Tegwick's prototype and market-signal organisation. Wireframe-leaning. Quiet. Built for artefacts that should look deliberately unfinished.
+
+## Governing principle
+
+This repository should stay focused on the purpose above. Work that changes its
+authority, ownership boundaries, or operational promises should be captured in a
+workplan before implementation.
+
+## What it enables
+
+- A coding agent can understand why the repository exists before changing it.
+- State Hub can register and coordinate work for this repository.
+- Future workplans can stay connected to the repository's intended role.

+
+- Maintain the repository's primary implementation.

+- Own unrelated adjacent systems.
+- Make irreversible operational decisions without human approval.

+# designbook/
+
+Local mirror of the **whynot** Claude Design project (the atelier — source of truth
+for the visual *language*). This directory is written and read by the `/design-sync`
+skill (the `DesignSync` tool over the claude.ai login). It is **not** edited by the
+build scripts; `tokens/` and `src/styles/` in the repo root are *derived* from it.
+
+See `DesignSystemIntroduction.md` §1 (three places) and §5 (the atelier → repo hop),
+and `RecentChanges.md` (regenerated by `make designbook-sync`) for the last diff.
+
+## How it syncs
+
+The designbook is a cloud project of type `PROJECT_TYPE_DESIGN_SYSTEM`. Sync is
+**two-way and incremental — one component at a time, never a wholesale replace**:
+
+```
+/design-sync                              # in Claude Code: pull the project into this
+                                          #   directory (or push built UI back to the canvas)
+node scripts/designbook-sync.mjs --mark-synced   # stamp when the pull happened
+make designbook-sync                      # record what changed + last-sync time → RecentChanges.md
+```
+
+### Freshness marker — `.design-sync.json`
+
+`make designbook-sync` only reflects the latest design **if `/design-sync` has been run**.
+It cannot pull on its own (the pull is an agent step), so freshness is tracked in
+`.design-sync.json`:
+
+```json
+{ "lastSyncAt": "<ISO>", "remoteUpdatedAt": "<ISO>", "projectId": "…", "projectName": "…" }
+```
+
+- `--mark-synced` (run right after `/design-sync`) sets `lastSyncAt` to now. `RecentChanges.md`
+  and the `make` output then show **"Last /design-sync: &lt;datetime&gt;"**.
+- To detect that the cloud moved ahead, run **`make designbook-check`** — backed by
+  **llm-connect**. It uses the `claude-code` adapter to ask the local `claude` binary for the
+  project's current `updatedAt` via `DesignSync.list_projects`, then records it with
+  `node scripts/designbook-sync.mjs --remote-updated <iso>`. (Only the `claude-code` adapter can
+  see your Claude Design project; no secret goes in the prompt — DesignSync uses the claude.ai
+  login.) If `remoteUpdatedAt` is newer than `lastSyncAt`, every report **warns that the local
+  mirror is OUTDATED** until the next `/design-sync`. Run the check offline/manually with
+  `python scripts/check_designbook_staleness.py --remote-updated <iso>`.
+- If no sync has ever been recorded, the report warns that `/design-sync` has not run.
+
+Anthropic's guidance for keeping the system on-brand:
+
+- **Give explicit constraints** (fonts, colors, spacing, layout) — see `../README.md`,
+  which is the authoritative language spec. Vague input drifts to generic output.
+- **Show real rendered UI**, not just a token sheet — the `examples/` pages double as
+  brand exemplars here.
+- **Test one component before a full page.** If output is off, make the language more
+  explicit and retest — cheaper in tokens than fixing a whole screen.
+
+## Layout (created/maintained by /design-sync)
+
+```

+# Technology-neutral designbook with stack adapters (Lit reference)
+
+## Problem
+
+Claude Design's designbook is **React-bound** (its `/design-sync` converter generates
+React components and React-rendered previews; a non-React DS "has nothing for the design
+agent to build with"). That defeats the idea of a designbook as a *technology-neutral UI
+blueprint*. coulomb needs to stay open to different UI stacks (Lit today, others later)
+while still using one Claude designbook for a consistent appearance.
+
+## Approach
+
+Keep React as the **interaction surface** with Claude Design (use the recommended React
+designbook — it is what the tool supports), but introduce a **technology-neutral
+intermediate representation (IR)** as the actual blueprint, and **per-stack adapters** that
+project the IR onto each stack. Lit is the first/reference adapter. Adapters are
+**scaffold + drift-detect**, not full behavioral codegen: tokens are fully generated,
+new components get stubs, changed components get a drift report (never an overwrite), and
+visual parity is checked against the designbook's own exemplars. Behavior stays
+hand-authored per stack.
+
+```
+Claude Design  (React designbook — canonical authoring surface)
+   │  /design-sync                        [exists]
+   ▼
+designbook/   (local React mirror: components/<group>/<Name>/{.d.ts,.prompt.md,.html},
+   │           tokens/, styles.css, _ds_bundle.js, _ds_manifest.json)
+   │  make ir   →  ir/extract  (the pivot)
+   ▼
+ir/           (technology-neutral blueprint, committed + diffable)
+   │  tokens.json   (W3C Design Tokens format)
+   │  components/<Name>.json  (contract: props/attrs, variants, slots, events, docs, exemplar)
+   │  exemplars/<Name>.{png,html}  (reference render from the designbook preview)
+   │  make adapt-lit  →  adapters/lit
+   ▼
+adapters/lit/ (reference)   tokens → CSS custom props (full gen)
+                            new component → <wn-*> stub + contract scaffold
+                            changed component → DRIFT REPORT (no overwrite)
+                            make parity-lit → visual + contract parity vs exemplar
+```
+
+**Directionality is one-way: React → IR → stacks.** Lit-side changes do **not** flow back
+automatically; a change to the shared language must be made in Claude Design (React) and
+re-propagated. The Lit components remain hand-authored; the adapter keeps their *contract
+and appearance* aligned, it does not own their behavior.
+
+## Builds on (already in this repo)
+
+- `designbook/` — local mirror of the Claude Design project + `designbook/README.md`.
+- `make designbook-sync` / `RecentChanges.md` — record what a sync changed.
+- `make designbook-check` + `scripts/check_designbook_staleness.py` — llm-connect backend
+  that detects when the cloud designbook moved ahead (the refresh trigger).
+- `tokens/*.json`, `src/styles/*.css`, `src/elements/*.js` — the existing Lit DS, which
+  becomes the first adapter's target/baseline.
+- Playwright visual harness (`tests/visual/`) — extended for parity in Phase 4.
+
+---
+
+## Phase 0 — Contracts & governance
+
+Establish the durable interfaces before any code, so future stacks slot in cleanly.
+
+## Define the IR schema
+
+```task
+id: WHYNOT-WP-0002-T01
+status: todo
+priority: high
+state_hub_task_id: "66187d76-3755-4204-ad71-d9fae8ed38ac"
+```
+
+Specify the technology-neutral blueprint. Tokens: adopt the **W3C Design Tokens Community
+Group** JSON format (`$value`/`$type`) so the token layer is a standard, not a bespoke
+shape — `tokens/*.json` already holds the values. Component contract (`ir/components/<Name>.json`):
+name, group, description, props (name/type/enum/default/required), **prop→attribute mapping**
+(React camelCase prop → Lit attribute/property), slots, events, variant axes, `docsRef`,
+`exemplarRef`. Write `ir/SCHEMA.md` + a JSON Schema for validation. Decide and document that
+`ir/` is committed (diffable blueprint).
+
+## Define the adapter interface
+
+```task
+id: WHYNOT-WP-0002-T02
+status: todo
+priority: high
+state_hub_task_id: "6fe8481c-02b3-407d-9b7b-c47f161c0dcd"
+```
+
+Document the contract every stack adapter implements so Vue/Angular/plain-CSS adapters are
+drop-in: inputs (`ir/`), outputs (generated artifacts into the stack's source tree, a
+machine-readable **drift report**, a **parity result**), idempotency rules (regenerate tokens
+ stubs; never overwrite hand-authored behavior), and exit codes for CI. Write
+`adapters/ADAPTER_CONTRACT.md`.
+
+## Governance & propagation doc
+
+```task
+id: WHYNOT-WP-0002-T03
+status: todo
+priority: medium
+state_hub_task_id: "97aadf8a-4d56-47d0-b841-d664d0676a53"
+```
+
+Document directionality (React canonical, one-way to stacks, Lit changes round-trip through
+Claude Design), the drift-resolution workflow (who fills behavior, how a drift report is
+triaged/closed), and how this extends the existing atelier→repo pipeline. Update
+`DesignSystemIntroduction.md` (§5 propagation) and add a rule under `.claude/rules/`.
+
+---
+
+## Phase 1 — Canonical React designbook source
+
+## Establish the React designbook as canonical
+
+```task
+id: WHYNOT-WP-0002-T04
+status: todo
+priority: high
+state_hub_task_id: "ed4dd1d4-f649-40f0-83f5-9cbd88622a7b"
+```
+
+The pivot needs a real React source in Claude Design (the current project holds the
+hand-authored web-component experiment, not a React component bundle). Decide how the
+canonical React designbook is established and maintained: author a React expression of the
+`wn-*` component set in Claude Design (native, `/design-sync`-compatible), tokens-first then
+grow components, or adopt an existing React kit. Define how it is pulled into `designbook/`.
+**Risk/dependency**: this is the precondition for IR extraction; scope it deliberately —
+a minimal token-plus-core-components React designbook is enough to prove the pipeline.
+
+---
+
+## Phase 2 — IR extraction (the pivot)
+
+## Build the IR extractor
+
+```task
+id: WHYNOT-WP-0002-T05
+status: todo
+priority: high
+state_hub_task_id: "dcdc0b01-756f-4253-9599-e5d5dfbe1083"
+```
+
+Build `scripts/ir-extract.mjs`: read the `designbook/` React mirror — `.d.ts` (props),
+`.prompt.md` (docs), `_ds_manifest.json` (groups), `tokens/` (values), preview `.html`
+(exemplar render) — and emit `ir/tokens.json` (W3C format), `ir/components/<Name>.json`
+(per T01 schema), and `ir/exemplars/<Name>.*`. Validate output against the JSON Schema from
+T01. Add `make ir`. `ir/` is committed so a re-extract surfaces blueprint changes as a git diff.
+
+---
+
+## Phase 3 — Lit reference adapter
+
+## Token generation (full gen)
+
+```task
+id: WHYNOT-WP-0002-T06
+status: todo
+priority: high
+state_hub_task_id: "a106c673-e849-4d06-91c9-3f7f63fec2ea"
+```
+
+`adapters/lit/`: generate CSS custom properties from `ir/tokens.json` into
+`src/styles/colors_and_type.css` (the existing token layer). Fully generated + deterministic;
+re-running is a no-op when nothing changed. Add `make adapt-lit` (tokens portion first).
+
+## Component scaffold + drift report
+
+```task
+id: WHYNOT-WP-0002-T07
+status: todo
+priority: high
+state_hub_task_id: "00ed1aff-7724-4e90-9a51-fd58699480ca"
+```
+
+Extend `adapters/lit/`: for an IR component with no `wn-*` counterpart, generate a Lit stub
+(`<wn-*>` skeleton + reactive properties from the contract's prop→attribute map + a TODO for
+behavior). For an existing component, **emit a drift report** (`adapters/lit/drift/<Name>.md`):
+prop/attribute mismatches, missing/extra variants, removed props — **never overwrite the
+hand-authored element**. Map React prop types → Lit property declarations. Wire into
+`make adapt-lit`.
+
+---
+
+## Phase 4 — Parity verification
+
+## Contract + visual parity
+
+```task
+id: WHYNOT-WP-0002-T08
+status: todo
+priority: medium
+state_hub_task_id: "1f52ca1f-64a6-4643-992f-f0b4812461a0"
+```
+
+`make parity-lit`: (a) **contract parity** — assert each `wn-*` element's observed
+attributes/properties match its IR contract (fail on drift); (b) **visual parity** — render
+the Lit component and diff against `ir/exemplars/<Name>` using the existing Playwright harness,
+emit a parity diff. Produce a single parity result per the adapter contract (T02). This is the
+gate that confirms Lit actually matches the designbook appearance.
+
+---
+
+## Phase 5 — Keep-up-to-date instruction set
+
+## Refresh loop + runbook
+
+```task
+id: WHYNOT-WP-0002-T09
+status: todo
+priority: high
+state_hub_task_id: "07e60a34-0c62-4f8b-848b-d3b8d4292a18"
+```
+
+Wire and document the end-to-end refresh sequence so keeping Lit current against the React
+designbook is one routine:
+
+1. `make designbook-check` — detect the cloud designbook moved (existing llm-connect backend).
+2. `/design-sync` — pull the latest React designbook into `designbook/`.
+3. `make designbook-sync` — record the diff (`RecentChanges.md`).
+4. `make ir` — re-extract the IR; review the `ir/` git diff (the blueprint change).
+5. `make adapt-lit` — regenerate tokens, scaffold new components, emit drift reports.
+6. Resolve drift — fill/adjust Lit behavior guided by `adapters/lit/drift/*.md`.
+7. `make parity-lit` — confirm appearance + contract parity.
+
+Add a `make designbook-refresh` orchestrator for the automatable steps (1–5, 7) and a
+human-in-loop runbook for step 6. Document in `.claude/rules/stack-and-commands.md` and
+`designbook/README.md`.
+
+---
+
+## Phase 6 — Generalization hook (prove extractability)
+
+## Second-adapter smoke (validate the boundary)
+
+```task
+id: WHYNOT-WP-0002-T10
+status: todo
+priority: low
+state_hub_task_id: "483de131-f580-4031-85df-72cf70a45679"
+```
+
+Sketch a minimal second adapter (plain-CSS utility classes or a Vue stub) that consumes the
+same `ir/` and implements the T02 contract — just enough to prove the IR/adapter boundary
+holds and the architecture can be lifted into a coulomb-level tool later. Do not finish the
+second stack; the deliverable is confidence in the seam.
+
+---
+
+## Open questions / risks
+
+- **React designbook bootstrap (T04)** is the critical-path dependency — without a real React
+  source, the IR has nothing to extract. Keep its initial scope minimal.
+- **Prop→attribute fidelity**: React props (objects, render props, callbacks) don't all map to
+  Lit attributes; the contract must mark non-portable props and the adapter must surface them
+  as drift, not silently drop them.
+- **Exemplar parity tolerance**: web-component vs React rendering will differ at the pixel
+  level; parity needs a sensible diff threshold (reuse `maxDiffPixelRatio` discipline).
+- **One-way constraint**: ensure the tooling never tempts a Lit→React back-edit that bypasses
+  Claude Design; governance doc (T03) must make the round-trip explicit.
