docs(articles): media plan and first three articles (living PR) by darko-mijic · Pull Request #34 · libar-dev/software-delivery-protocol

darko-mijic · 2026-10-21T22:56:40Z

This PR has the "do not merge" label because the idea is to update these articles periodically as the main branch receives significant updates. We will do this until the protocol is relatively mature and new sets of articles are needed.

Standing PR, not for merge. This branch holds the living media plan and the article manuscripts that introduce the Libar Software Delivery Protocol (@libar-dev/software-delivery-protocol) to outside engineers. It is based on main at 5a0b22c, the merge of PR #33, and is refreshed as main advances with the playbook in docs/articles/README.md.

What this PR introduces, and why

The Protocol's thesis is that the spec is the prompt is the design: model the delivery lifecycle as typed Specs in the repository, derive one graph from them, check conformance and honesty in CI, and let people and coding agents read that same graph. Nothing outside the repository explains that to an engineer who has never seen it. This PR adds an eight-part article series to do so. It ships a media plan and three finished manuscripts, every one of them grounded in the repository's own Specs, worked example, and pull-request history.

The first draft went through three adversarial reviews, folded in 58a8202. A fourth, six reviewers run in parallel on e1d2f59, was then checked finding by finding against this head: most were already fixed, the rest are folded in 48d8f49, and two were refuted (below). Each claim in the articles was re-checked against the engine, the graph at 5a0b22c, or a scratch copy of the worked example: every count, quoted output, validator ID, named coordinate, and failure message. Each article now gives the command that reproduces what it shows. The branch touches only docs/articles/, so the Protocol's own corpus is unchanged. The design diff below confirms it.

A tour of the four files

All links are pinned to this branch's head, 20cf20d.

Part 1: The Spec Is the Prompt Is the Design is the launch manifesto. It argues the title instead of asserting it. A Spec is enriched in place across eight typed sections, and g.specContext(id) is literally the prompt an agent reads. Familiar nouns (Use Case, NFR, Decision Record, Contract, Epic, Feature, Story, Scenario) are named coordinates on one primitive. The article then shows a Spec at its first rung: a contract Spec at idea with a blocking open question, which validates with 0 errors and 0 warnings in the worked example (the showcase). After that come a real graph node with its declared and anchored edges, git as the event log, the claim taxonomy, and the self-hosting numbers. It closes with a new section on scope, non-goals, and how adopters install today.

Part 2: From Rough Idea to Verified Code is the hands-on tour of examples/checkout-v1. It starts from a setup block and a first graph question: the drift alarm, which finds two Specs on the worked example. It then authors the parent Spec and its typed example space, binds code with the constant and comment forms, and walks through the generated contracts, registrar, and oracle. It ends with five experiments that break the graph on purpose. Each one names the exact edit and command, and quotes the output it produced.

Part 3: Stop Building 30-Verb CLI Walls for Coding Agents covers the agent surface and the Spec Studio. It walks the reader's full surface, the evaluation sink and its trust stance, the two-surface rule, and the usability trial as it actually ran. It then follows iterating on a large design, pass after pass on the 243-Spec adopter: context bundles, design diffs, change proposals, and a corpus rule that reports seven real findings. It finishes with the Studio and the three skills.

The media plan and playbook holds the positioning, the audiences, the outlines for Parts 4 to 8, and the editorial house rules. It now adds a list of the 24 core sources pinned to 5a0b22c, and the four-step refresh playbook with its baseline snapshot.

What the reviews changed

The headline fixes, by file:

Both blockers. Part 2's two Markdown examples that contain their own code fences now use four-backtick outer fences; a script confirmed every fence in the four files closes. Part 1's named coordinates are corrected, and so is its wrong claim about readiness. A ready Spec never refines a scoped parent because the ready floor requires every typed-dependency target to state at least defined. Children are not held to their parent's rung.
Part 1. Section 2 now argues the title. Section 3 shows a real JSON node with its five edges, states the regenerability invariant, and explains git as the event log, with supersedes as the one kept exception. The epistemic-boundary section uses the exact refusal IDs (extract/reserved-property, extract/invalid-frontmatter, honesty/authoring-shape, honesty/delivery-facts), and code blocks replace the LaTeX. The checks section is accurate on duplicate IDs, on structural edges versus component attributes, and on prose mentions (an unresolved mention is an error, an undeclared pair a warning). It also says honesty/gaps excludes decision Specs. The self-hosting table breaks the 339 bindings down, the six warnings are explained, and libar-platform is introduced as the first adopter, with PR Plan 45: design at the adopter's scale: install from a commit, a bundle that fits, corpus rules, and the Spec Studio's phase 0 #33 and libar-platform#13.
Part 2. Setup now runs git clone and npm ci, and every command uses npm run --silent sdp -- …, with the reason a bare sdp is never used. Five tree coordinates are corrected. The article cites Principle P6 and names decisions by their ratified names. The Gherkin callout states its limits, and the five adapter functions and recipe 10's keys are explained. Section 5 is retitled, and each experiment gives its command and verified output.
Part 3. The full reader surface is listed, and the byFile line is corrected to 21. The trial is told accurately: three agents answered 13 of 13 after PR Design management, closer to the original design: the Pack design page, entry lines, recipe parameters, design recipes, and v0 captured and ruled #30. PR Plan 43: design iteration on a readable graph #31 answered their friction, and the re-run's 23 calls led to PR A whole-corpus refresh: every Spec read against the engine, before the Studio #32's task-to-recipe sheet. The article now explains why the budget counts UTF-16 code units, and how PR Plan 45: design at the adopter's scale: install from a commit, a bundle that fits, corpus rules, and the Spec Studio's phase 0 #33 took pack:history-view from at least 299,106 units to 93,806 of 100,000. Recipe 38 is described as reporting only, with the well-formed corpus-rule finding shape and its real output. Parts 1 and 2 are linked, and the article no longer links to the internal playbook.
The playbook. The Gherkin scope (MD-27) is fixed, and observed is marked as designed but not yet derived. The other fixes:
- the build-backlog and registrar wording
- "Six renames"
- Gen 1's 349 patterns
- 243-Spec and 258-Spec titles for Parts 7 and 8
- which job belongs to recipe 39 and which to recipe 40
- the percent-encoding advice is gone
- a note on cross-posting tables
- nodeTypes, edgeClaims, and recipes 20 and 33 in the playbook
- a warning that npm run check never formats docs/**
The fourth review (48d8f49). Each finding was re-checked against the engine, the Specs, the plans and real runs in a scratch worktree before any edit.
- Series-wide: "Part N of 8" became "Part N", and decisions are named by their registry names, such as "bindings are optional, plural, and may reference a design (MD-37)".
- Part 1: the 349-pattern sentence names the audited commit and PR Adopter round 2: Pack order, question keys, the next rung, recipes 25 and 26, and the Studio captured ahead of its code #28, the concept foundation (PR Concept foundation: the meta-model, its ratified ubiquitous language, and the JTBD stories #1) is told apart from the engine (PR Phase 0 — the protocol as typed code #2), and "projections" is gone from derived facts. CI runs on every push and pull request, the census query now re-derives the whole table, and the screenshot caption names 30f196a.
- Part 2: the registrar makes two checks against the oracle, not three, and the excerpts are verbatim, with line-range links and elision markers. The adopter's runtime code could not import the package, satisfies is collective (the second unit is named), break-it 3 is retitled, break-it 4 says why sdp build alone exits 0, and the Gherkin parity claim is limited to its one parity example.
- Part 3: findByConcept's section-key scope, the two Packs still over budget (per PR Plan 45: design at the adopter's scale: install from a commit, a bundle that fits, corpus rules, and the Spec Studio's phase 0 #33), a verbatim anti-anecdote rule, the OD-157 caption, and the recipe 43 comment are fixed, and "almost always" and "crucially" are cut.
- Playbook: the design-diff base worktree moves outside the checkout (inside it, check:temporal fails with EISDIR). Every baseline row names the Step 3 output it comes from, house rule 3 splits corpus counts from adopter and historical figures, a new rule 4 covers relative links, and the exempt list is complete. Outlines 04 to 08 are corrected: seven renames, the exhibit PRs, the Comment-Form Reversal, the authored oracle, PRs MVP slices 1–5 + the executable-spec exploration + the machinery landed (plans 12–13): contracts, typed parameters, the oracle, the runner #3, Universal Spec carriers, runnable modules, projections, and structural anchors #19 and Plan 37 (mid-arc): settle registrar adoption and stage drift maturation #21, seven layers, #ui.<key>, MD-40's limit, re-transcribing the oracle, and one developer.
- Refuted: api: stays listed as a code-anchor namespace, because the engine admits it (src/ids.ts:42) even though this corpus has none. "Queried in memory" stays at its one quoted use, because it quotes spec:extraction.regenerability verbatim.

Show it to a person

The articles carry four Spec Studio captures from PR #33. All of them are linked from main. The pages themselves are generated and never committed.

The Protocol's own pack:corpus-checks-v1 (Part 1):

The adopter's pack:history-view Pack page (Part 3):

Open questions at their entry addresses (Part 3):

Shared concept search for OD-157 (Part 3):

What no view shows yet. GitHub renders the articles as written. Substack and Medium do not render Markdown tables, and the playbook says how to convert them before cross-posting. No hosted Studio preview exists, so readers publish the pages themselves with sdp studio.

Self-hosted and graph-measured

These numbers were measured at close on 20cf20d; re-run the recipes rather than inheriting them.

The design diff (recipe 35) from 5a0b22c to this head is empty, as a docs-only branch should be: 276 Specs and schema 0.10.0 on both sides.

Specs added	Specs removed	Specs changed	Packs changed	Specs whose bindings changed
0	0	0	0	0

Where each Pack's design stands (recipe 29), unchanged from 5a0b22c:

Pack	Specs in it	Held below their next rung	Waiting only for their author	Design entries · pinned declarations	Open questions (blocking)	With code that implements them	With code that references them
`pack:self-hosting-v1`	276	10	21	206 · 75	43 (16)	94	15
`pack:design-management-v1`	24	3	2	81 · 34	15 (3)	18	4
`pack:spec-studio-v1`	18	1	7	81 · 20	3 (0)	8	5
`pack:corpus-checks-v1`	13	0	0	23 · 11	0 (0)	3	1
`pack:design-iteration-v1`	11	0	1	74 · 26	2 (0)	10	1
`pack:obsidian-vault-v1`	5	4	1	0 · 0	16 (9)	0	0

The self-hosting validate run reports 0 errors and 6 warnings, the six intentional findings the oracle pins. The build backlog (recipe 1) and the drift alarm (recipe 2) are both empty. The full npm run check gate exits 0 at this head (2,199 tests passed). The diff from main is four files under docs/articles/. Recipe 35's base worktree now lives outside the checkout in the playbook; docs/agent-surface/recipes.md still shows it inside, which is a follow-up for main, not this branch.

Delegated editorial choices awaiting the owner's review

The owner made no new rulings in this PR; the review findings were folded as directed. The agent made the choices below while folding them.

Choice	One line	Where
Showcase Spec	`spec:orders.refund-order.api-contract`, a `contract` story at `idea` that refines `spec:orders.order-management`, with the blocking question `#question.idempotencyHeader`; checked at 0 errors and 0 warnings in a copy of the worked example	Part 1
Sibling-article pins	Links between Parts 1 to 3 pin to `48d8f49`, the latest fold commit, because a commit cannot contain its own SHA; this head only adds those pins	all three articles
Prose-mention warnings	Described as three from question `links:` and two from rule text, as measured, rather than all five from `links:`	Part 1
`honesty/authoring-shape` scope	Described as catching a delivery fact written into a section; the validator scans delivery-fact names, not edges	Part 1
`layer` and `context` refusals	Attributed to extraction; `conformance/structural-anchors` covers `memberOf`, `uses`, and `references`	Part 1
Entry addresses outside Specs	`sdp validate` checks addresses in Spec prose; registers, tests, and pages check theirs with recipe 25	Part 1
Corpus-rule demonstration	Forbids `edge` to `domain` at warning severity to show seven real findings, labeled as a demonstration and not a defect	Part 3
Trial attribution	The task-to-recipe sheet answers the re-run's extra calls (PR #32); `{ unknownParams, accepts }` is credited to PR #33 without tying it to the trial	Part 3
Distillation boundary	Credited to `sdp-sessions` (Close / slim), where the skill states it, not `sdp-authoring`	Part 3
Context-bundle examples	Adds two measured results on the Protocol's own corpus: `pack:design-iteration-v1` fits in 87,185 units, and `pack:self-hosting-v1` returns `budgetExceeded` with 409,404	Part 3
The 24 core sources	Leaves out `AGENTS.md`, which carries internal build state, and includes `docs/lineage/README.md`	playbook
"24-tag registry"	Gen 1's runtime registry as the scout counted it: 24 metadata tags, plus three aggregation tags and the gate	playbook
Part 7 hook	"Across seven layers, 0 to 6," and "states the components of layers 3 to 6 as designs," PR #33's wording	playbook
Counts in titles	Kept "243-Spec", "258" and "595": each was measured at a fixed point (the adopter's pin, the refresh's base), so a refresh does not move them	playbook, Part 3
Part 5 title	"the Comment-Form Reversal", since "annotation" as a noun is a rejected alias	playbook, Part 3
Decision names	Registry names from `DECISIONS.md` replace the invented short names ("the binding-grain ruling")	Part 2
Playbook commands	`npm run --silent sdp:q -- …` throughout, with pnpm named as equivalent	playbook

Feedback wanted

The first Spec a reader sees. Is a contract story at idea with one blocking question the right showcase, or should Part 1 open on a behavior Spec?
The corpus-rule demonstration. Do seven warnings on the Protocol's own architecture read as a feature of --rules or as a defect?
Adopter detail. Parts 1 and 3 name libar-platform's Packs, question keys, and OD-157. Is that level of detail fine for publication?
Venues. Are there word-count caps, image preferences, or front-matter conventions to encode before the first cross-post?

Lane	What	Why now
Refresh	Run the playbook against the next `main` merge, then re-pin links and re-measure numbers	`main` will have moved
Part 4	Shared Language Is a Performance Feature	Its sources (`CONTEXT.md`, the carrier ruling) are settled and depend on no engine change
Part 5	What We Learned Rebuilding `@libar-dev/architect`	The scout report and the comment-form rulings (MD-36 to MD-38) are ratified
Cross-post prep	Convert Parts 1 to 3's tables to lists or images for Substack and Medium	Needed before the first external publication

The arc after. Part 6 (executable contracts) and Part 8 (the whole-corpus refresh, measured at 46f0280) can be drafted from the repository as it stands. Part 7 (the adopter at scale) waits on the adopter's progress.

Waiting only for the owner. Approval to publish Parts 1 to 3, the venue choice, and the delegated choices above.

Deferred, with triggers. Part 7's planned-components section waits until recipe 43 reports realized components on the adopter. Hosted Studio previews wait on the hosted-preview work PR #33 deferred. The corpus's own deferrals (recipe 20: eight, each with its trigger) are untouched by this docs-only branch.

Refused, durably.

No edit outside docs/articles/ on this branch: engine, Specs, tests, configuration, and .omo/ stay untouched, so rebasing onto main stays conflict-free.
No corpus number without the commit it was measured at and the command that re-derives it.
No encoded or disguised plan paths to pass check:temporal; link the pull request or the parent directory instead.
No link from a published article to the internal playbook.
No "provably correct"; the claim is "deterministically validated."
No presenting observed as derived.
No merge: this is a standing branch.

Review of `e1d2f59`: findings only, no edits pushed

Six reviewers ran in parallel: one per file (the three articles and the media plan), one on the planned outlines (04–08) and one on cross-file consistency and this description. Each claim was checked against the graph at 5a0b22c, the engine (src/), the Specs, CONTEXT.md, DECISIONS.md, and the history of the cited PRs. Every command was run as written. The five "break it on purpose" experiments in Article 2 were performed for real in a scratch worktree. Nothing was committed to this branch, so apply or ignore any of this as you see fit.

What holds. Every headline count of the Protocol's own corpus re-derives exactly at 5a0b22c: 276 Specs, 6 Packs and their member counts, 621 nodes, 1,624 edges, 1,774 locations, 94 implemented, 205 has-verifier, backlog 0 (110 examples and 41 decisions excluded), drift 0, design backlog 17, and 43 questions in 24 Specs (16 blocking). The other counts check out too: 43 recipes, 14 components in 4 layers, and 43 uses edges. All 42 cells of the Pack table in this description match recipe 29. All series titles agree across the files. Every link pinned to 5a0b22c resolves, and the images return 200. The branch changes nothing in the graph: recipe 35 from 5a0b22c is empty and graph.json is byte-identical. npm run check passes (2,298 tests), and nothing under docs/articles/ ships in the npm package.

Fix first

All five article links in this description return 404. They pin to e1d2f59747c2cc4882e0e9d061a82e04fa909643, but the head is …d061a82c04fa909643.
Article 1: the sample idea Spec doesn't parse as printed. The blank line between the closing --- and the # HTTP contract… title gives extract/invalid-markdown-structure ("the first body line must be an H1 title"). It also isn't what sdp new spec scaffolds: the scaffold writes relations: {} and a bare section, with no parent and no question.
Article 1 names a validator rule that doesn't exist. honesty/authored-delivery-fact is really honesty/delivery-facts (src/validate/validators.ts:53). And writing implemented: true in front matter is refused earlier, at extraction, as extract/reserved-property.
Article 2's file tree has five wrong labels, checked against each Spec's front matter:
- order-management states defined, not scoped.
- order-total-rule and order-inventory-rule state defined, not ready.
- order-latency-constraint and order-model are story, not feature.
Once these are corrected, recipe 2 (the drift alarm) on examples/checkout-v1 lists two Specs, create-order and order-total-rule. Both are implemented but state defined. That deserves a sentence in the walkthrough rather than silence.
Article 2's break-it table doesn't match what the tools do. Measured results are in the Article 2 section below. Experiments 1 and 4 also delete the committed registrar orders.create-order.valid-cart.test.generated.ts, so reverting needs git checkout -- examples/checkout-v1 and a rebuild.
Article 2 says sdp build "emits" the oracle and the test. Both are hand-written. Only the step contracts, the space contract and the registrar are generated.
Rendering. Article 1's \[ … \] blocks render as literal LaTeX on GitHub, dev.to and Substack. Article 2's two Markdown carrier excerpts nest a fenced block inside a fenced block, so the inner closing fence ends the outer one early. Use a four-backtick outer fence.
Seven layers, not six. Article 1 and the Article 07 outline describe the first adopter as a "six-layer" platform, but its design/README.md describes layers 0 through 6.

Article 1 — the manifesto

Where	Problem	Evidence	Suggested fix
§1	"ran in production across 349 architectural patterns"	349 is the size of Architect's own repository graph at the commit the lineage scout read: 227 TypeScript and 122 Gherkin patterns. It is not a production deployment count.	"taught us the problem in production; at the commit we later audited, its own repository's graph held 349 patterns"
§1	"We built … (PR #1)"	PR #1 is the concept foundation (`docs/`, `jtbd-stories/`); the engine arrived in PR #2.	"designed … (its concept foundation landed in PR #1)"
§1	Meta-levels row 3 adds "projections" to derived facts	Neither `00-vision` nor `CONTEXT.md` puts projections there.	Drop "and projections".
§2	An epic parent at `scoped` with a `ready` example child	A `ready` Spec's `refines` target must state at least `defined`; a probe fails `typed-dependency-targets-are-defined`.	Parent at `defined`, and "bound to a test" instead of "verified".
§2	Twelve section names listed as "typed sections"	These are Markdown carrier headings. The ratified section set is eight.	Name both and tell them apart.
§2	"scaffolded by `sdp new spec`"	See item 2 above.	"Modeled on the worked example's contract Spec; the scaffold writes the envelope, title and outcome, and the parent and question are added by hand."
§3	`inferred` presented as a graph claim from `sdp build --imports`	The graph holds only `declared` and `anchored` edges. `--imports PATH` writes a separate `generated/imports.json`.	Say inferred structure lives beside the graph, never in it.
§3	"orthogonal axes"	This is the residual "two axes" phrasing `AGENTS.md` flags.	"independent coordinates"
§3	`derivedReadiness` glossed as the floor	It is the highest rung whose floor clauses pass.	Re-gloss.
§3	"an implementation anchor claims to realize"	"claim" is reserved for the claim taxonomy.	"a `satisfies` binding says code realizes"
§3	Recipe 1's gloss implies it filters on dependencies	`dist/recipes/01-the-build-backlog.js` doesn't.	Drop "whose dependencies are at least `defined`", or attribute that condition to the readiness floor.
§4	`conformance/structural-anchors` said to check `layer` and `context`	It checks `memberOf`, `uses` and `references` edges. `layer` and `context` are attributes.	Correct the list.
§4	`conformance/duplicate-ids`	Real duplicates get `extract/duplicate-id`; probed with two anchors sharing one ID.	Name both rules.
§4	`conformance/prose-mentions` presented as a failure	An unresolved target is an error. A missing backing relation is an informative warning.	Separate the two.
§4	`honesty/gaps` said to fire on a missing "enabled verifier"	It fires on a ready, non-decision Spec with no resolving verifier.	Correct the condition.
§5	The 339 row lists `impl:`, `api:` and `component:`	The graph has no `api:` code nodes: 146 `impl:`, 14 `component:`, then 172 `test:` and 7 `oracle:` anchors.	"Anchors: 339 — 160 code anchors (146 `impl:`, 14 `component:`) · 179 test and oracle anchors (172 `test:`, 7 `oracle:`)"
§5	"token-budgeted design passes"	`CONTEXT.md` lists "token-budgeted slice" as a name to avoid; the budget is counted in UTF-16 code units.	"design passes whose context bundles fit a stated budget"
§5	"enforce context isolation"	Corpus rules check; they don't enforce.	"check"
§5	243 adopter Specs and the 251-page Studio quoted beside counts measured at `5a0b22c`	These were measured at the adopter's own pin, recorded in PR #33.	Cite PR #33 as the source.
§5	Screenshot	It was captured at `30f196a`, per `reviews/assets/pr33/README.md`.	Add a caption saying so.
§5	"re-run the queries below", but none re-derives the table	—	Add one census `sdp:q` body that reproduces the table.
§6	The try-it block clones `main`, so "276-Spec" will drift	—	Add `git checkout --detach 5a0b22c…`, a Node ≥ 20 note, and a note that validate's 6 warnings are informative (intentional `honesty/gaps` and `prose-mentions`).
misc	Smaller wording problems	—	"Executable Scenario" → "Executable Spec"; "ADR" → "Decision Record (ADR)"; "The Protocol enforces" → its checks hold every fact to it; "in memory" → "in process"; "on every commit" → "on every push and pull request" (`ci.yml`).

Article 2 — the walkthrough

Break-it table, measured (each edit reverted, then rebuilt):

#	Article says	Measured
1	Suggests `Did you mean "## Rule"?`	Exit 1: `extract/unrecognized-heading` with `did you mean "Rule"?`, plus 2 × `extract/invalid-markdown-structure`. The Spec drops out of the graph and `graph.json` isn't written.
2	"edit distance $\le 2$"	Exit 1: `conformance/referential-integrity`, `Did you mean "spec:orders.order-management"?`, the nearest ID within distance 2 (`src/validate/validators.ts:139`). Write ≤ in plain text; $…$ doesn't render on dev.to or Substack.
3	"State readiness you haven't earned"	Exit 1 with `no-blocking-open-questions`. The Spec already states `defined`, so the honest title is "Keep a rung the Spec no longer earns". Also say where to add the question (end of `## Intent`).
4	Correct	Exit 1 with `kind-evidence-complete`; derived readiness drops to `scoped`. `sdp build` alone still exits 0 but writes 2 modules instead of 3, withholding the registrar.
5	Vague failure	`npx vitest --run examples/checkout-v1/test` fails with `Spec Then parameters do not match the oracle payload`, `$.total: expected 120, actual 100`.

Other findings:

Build output. The real sdp build examples/checkout-v1 output has a third line, Wrote <repo>/generated/contracts (3 modules). The section never says how to run the command; the rest of the series uses npm run --silent sdp -- build examples/checkout-v1.
"Compares three things". The registrar makes two checks, per spec:extraction.runnable-modules: the Spec's values against the oracle, then the observed outcome against the oracle.
Recipe 10 output. The fields declaredExampleVerifiers and enabled: true don't exist. The real output has rows[].declared, rows[].enabled and withDeclaredOnly. Also, node dist/cli/sdp.js q … --root examples/checkout-v1 works, but use the npm run form for consistency.
Excerpts. The oracle excerpt silently drops blank lines and a comment, and the test and use-case excerpts hide their elisions. Quote verbatim with // … (lines N–M) … markers, and link line ranges such as create-order.oracle.ts#L12-L48 and census.ts#L21-L28.
Envelope. It has exactly five required keys, and the title comes from the H1. A derived name gives extract/reserved-property; an unknown key gives extract/unrecognized-property.
Gherkin. "Producing the exact same graph nodes and generated contracts" overclaims. The proof is one parity example (spec:carrier.gherkin-authoring.contract-parity), and Gherkin has no form for open questions or relation reasons.
Comment-form story. Per PR Annotations, closer to the original design: the comment form, references, and role, layer and context on anchors #29, the adopter wasn't "strict about zero external imports". Its runtime code could not import the package, so all its code anchors sat in tests. The /anchors subpath excludes node:* modules; it isn't "for browser and edge runtimes".
satisfies. It is collective: a second unit, src/cli/census-command.ts, completes the census page's set. Code never satisfies a decision Spec.
Bare decision code. [MD-37](…) → "the binding-grain ruling (MD-37)".
Section title. Experiments 1 and 2 aren't honesty checks, so retitle the section "Watching the Checks Fire".
Forward pointer. "Fit 240-Spec corpora into context bundles" should be "fit one capability Pack of the first adopter's 243-Spec corpus".

Article 3 — the agent surface and Spec Studio

Broken link. specs/consumers/reader.sdp.md doesn't exist; the Spec lives in reader.sdp.gherkin.
"The reader freezes only…" is false. The Reader interface (src/reader/reader.ts) has graph plus eight methods; the article omits findings() and graph.
findByConcept doesn't match coined camelCase keys outside the model section; a query for footingCut returns nothing. It does match IDs, anchor labels and Pack framing. List what concept-match.ts actually reads.
byFile returns every node recorded at the path, including Specs and Packs authored there. The JSON block says "line": 20; the real output is 21.
The PR Plan 43: design iteration on a readable graph #31 trial. It used "three agents from two model families", not "three frontier models", and the trial was "without opening a carrier", per the plan-43 record. { unknownParams, accepts } came in PR Plan 45: design at the adopter's scale: install from a commit, a bundle that fits, corpus rules, and the Spec Studio's phase 0 #33, not from the trial. The trial shaped summary-first answers (detail: true), both next rungs reported apart, keyed rules with source lines, and the design-backlog recipe.
Second-caller bar. Use the Spec's wording: a second machine consumer needs it and hand-rolled attempts get it wrong. PR Design management, closer to the original design: the Pack design page, entry lines, recipe parameters, design recipes, and v0 captured and ruled #30 moved the Pack design onto the existing packContext; it added no reader method.
Context bundle.
- The ~299,106 units were measured before PR Plan 45: design at the adopter's scale: install from a commit, a bundle that fits, corpus rules, and the Spec Studio's phase 0 #33.
- The drop to 93,806 came from PR Plan 45: design at the adopter's scale: install from a commit, a bundle that fits, corpus rules, and the Spec Studio's phase 0 #33's compact bundle shape plus declarations: "addresses", not the opt-in alone.
- The budget is in UTF-16 code units, not characters.
- Plan 45 records that two of the platform's Packs still exceed the budget after every cut; say so.
- The seven-step order, the 100,000 default, store-once and no-partial-bundle are correct.
Proposal check (recipe 38). It "applies nothing and routes nothing" (Spec). Routing a moved change to a person is guidance in sdp-sessions. A change's scope is Spec IDs or entry addresses, not "a Spec section".
Corpus rules. Among the shipped recipes only recipe 42 returns { findings }, so "shipped recipes like" should be "recipe 42, for example". The validate --rules output block is missing the real corpus rules dist/recipes/42-the-architecture-walk.js line.
Studio.
- The Markdown Pack table always has 13 fixed columns (MEMBER_TABLE_HEADER), not "once a Pack grows".
- Question fields (decider, links, provisional, trigger) show only on open questions, not on every keyed entry.
- The open-questions screenshot shows keys, copy buttons and lines, not those fields.
- "OD-157" is unverified; plan 45 calls it "an adopter's register id".
Skills. "Every adopter gets them automatically" overclaims: the files install under node_modules/…/.agents/skills/, but nothing loads them into an agent. "Distillation boundary" lives in sdp-sessions, not sdp-authoring. The work shapes are named "Capture / refine" and "Close / slim". Quote the anti-anecdote rule verbatim.
Try-it comments. Recipe 32 lists the 33 uses edges that cross a layer (none cross a context), not "all 43". Recipe 41 covers Design and UI keys. Recipe 43 returns zeros on this corpus, which states no component designs.
Decision reference. "the agent-surface-scripts-graph decision, D5" → "the agent surface scripts the graph decision (D5)", the name in DECISIONS.md.
Overclaims to cut. "almost always", "crucially", "Agents love", "instant search", "cleanly", "solves each one".

Media plan — positioning, house rules, playbook

Step 2 breaks the green gate while it runs. It puts the base worktree at .sdp-base inside the repo, which isn't gitignored. While it exists, check:temporal fails with EISDIR, preflight refuses the untracked path, and ESLint and Prettier scan it. Put it outside the repo: BASE_DIR="$(mktemp -d)", and use "$BASE_DIR" throughout. The same hazard is in recipe 35's instructions in docs/agent-surface/recipes.md, around line 2890; a separate fix would add .sdp-base/ to .gitignore.
Step 1 says "run the green gate" but only runs npm ci && npm run build, and npm ci already builds through prepare.
The baseline table cites queries Step 3 never runs: node types, edge claims, recipes 33 and 20, and the recipe-file count. Extend the census query and name the output field behind each row.
The footer overclaims what npm run check verifies. Only check:temporal reads docs/articles/. .prettierignore excludes docs/**, so the Prettier check matches zero files, and ESLint ignores Markdown. The footer also lists 5 of the 13 steps.
House rule 2's encoding trick. plans/%345-… passes the guard. But encoding a dated file's leading digit (annotation-scout-%32026-10-04.md) still leaves a full date in the text, and the guard bans it; encoding the first hyphen (2026%2D10-04) passes. One reviewer recommends dropping the encoding advice entirely, linking the PR that carried the file instead, and never encoding a path to slip past the guard. That is the call to make.
The exempt list is incomplete. It omits the tracked .omo/ drafts, plans and evidence, and package-lock.json. Untracked files that .gitignore doesn't exclude are swept too.
House rule 3 is stricter than the series. It requires a command beside every count, and Article 1's table has none. "Dated to a commit" also sits oddly beside a guard that bans dates. Suggestion: counts of the Protocol's own corpus are pinned to a commit and re-derivable by a command, beside the number or in the playbook; adopter and historical figures cite their PR or review.
"24-tag annotation registry". "Why we deleted a 24-tag annotation registry" is wrong: the 24 tags are Gen 1's runtime registry, and Gen 2 never had it. Also, "annotation" as a noun is a rejected alias.
"24 core sources" for NotebookLM is defined nowhere in the repo.
"Token-budgeted context bundles": same vocabulary problem as in Article 1.
The leaders row labels ready ∧ ¬implemented the build backlog. The agent-surface skill warns against exactly that, because the backlog excludes examples and decisions.
Row 02 says the article authors .sdp.gherkin Specs; Gherkin is only a sidebar there.
Row 03 should add PR Self-hosting phase 5: the 05 dissolution and the agent front door #14, which introduced sdp q and the agent front door.
The slogan elaboration:
- The TS DSL and Gherkin carriers are per-ID options.
- Gherkin covers behavior and example Specs only.
- observed is designed but deferred.

Planned outlines 04–08

04. "Seven renames" lists six. The rename table is in PR Concept foundation: the meta-model, its ratified ubiquitous language, and the JTBD stories #1's body, not CONTEXT.md's term ledger (a bullet list); the seventh row is reader and impact graph replacing handle and mechanical substrate. The renames preceded the engine, so "that changed the engine" should be "that the engine was built on". In PR The carrier ruling — plan 16, the competition judged and closed #8, only F2 and C2 had scorecards; the Gherkin fork and TSX entries were closed on falsifiable probes (exhibits in PRs F2 markdown carrier: the first exhibit PR of the carrier competition #4–Typed markup — the timeboxed evidence PR #7). The .sdp.gherkin option came later (PR feat(carrier): harden Gherkin carrier with .sdp.gherkin suffix and closed grammar #17). "Profile" should be "readiness profile". MD-2's name is "adopt the nouns, reject the gates". "Most prompt engineering" is unsupported.
05.
- The scout link points at the docs/lineage folder instead of the report file. Linking that file needs care: its name contains a date, which the temporal guard bans, so link the PR that carried it.
- The history findings were two files sharing one identity, CLI fixtures inside the production scan, and misread tag syntax. The overloaded implements came from the tag inventory, not the history.
- The refusal the scout corrected was not "early".
- MD-38 credits the owner's direction and the original design, not the adopter. layer and context sit on component: anchors only.
- "Satisfies (collective realization)" was made explicit later (ruling R01, PR A whole-corpus refresh: every Spec read against the engine, before the Studio #32).
- "Annotation Reversal" uses the rejected noun; consider "the comment-form reversal".
06. The oracle is authored, never generated ("compiles … into … specOracle functions" is wrong). PR feat: complete self-hosting — the native carrier everywhere (plan 26) #16 is the Pack-manifests PR and unrelated; the relevant PRs are MVP slices 1–5 + the executable-spec exploration + the machinery landed (plans 12–13): contracts, typed parameters, the oracle, the runner #3, Universal Spec carriers, runnable modules, projections, and structural anchors #19 and Plan 37 (mid-arc): settle registrar adoption and stage drift maturation #21. Registrars sit beside the test as *.generated.ts, not under generated/contracts/, and take an optional fifth assertions adapter. MD-31's name is "adopted registrars are committed". A bound example that lands on unspecified still turns its test red, so "without false gates" needs that caveat. The "40 regex step definitions" figure is invented.
07. The platform has seven layers (0–6), not six. "First external adopter" should be "first adopter", and "six capability Packs" should be "six Packs". The row-07 address list omits #ui.<key>. Entry addresses are admitted in prose and refused in every ID slot (MD-40), so "without sub-Spec explosion" overclaims. Add PR The entry address, checked mentions, authored entry order, and pinned declarations, ruled and built #27 as a source. "Every toy assumption breaks" overclaims.
08. The refresh audited 258 Specs at its base (the merge of PR Plan 43: design iteration on a readable graph #31), not 276; the catalog then had 40 recipes. "Pinning the self-hosting oracle" should be "re-transcribing" it. Recipe 40 is described wrongly: it ranks files for anchor review and flags component imports that disagree with anchored uses. The satisfies case was a contradiction between two homes of the law, not a code bug. Write "one developer and", not "a solo developer +".
Titles. Consider dropping live counts ("240-Spec", "276 Self-Hosted") from titles; they go stale at every refresh, in four places.

Across the series

One CLI form. The series mixes pnpm --silent sdp:q, npm run --silent sdp:q -- and node dist/cli/sdp.js. A reader who just ran npm ci is only guaranteed npm. Recommended: npm run --silent sdp:q -- '<body>' for queries, and npm run --silent sdp -- <verb> . --exclude explorations --exclude examples --exclude test/fixtures/import/parity for everything else. All verified.
"Part N of 8" with five parts unwritten. Consider "Part N", and keep the media plan out of reader-facing links (Article 3 links it).
Relative links (./02-….md) break off-repo. Suggest a house rule: relative inside the repo, rewritten to published or commit-pinned URLs at publication.
240 versus 243. PR Plan 45: design at the adopter's scale: install from a commit, a bundle that fits, corpus rules, and the Spec Studio's phase 0 #33 measured 243 at the adopter's pin. Use 243 in body text.
Pointers elsewhere. Add none while this stays a standing draft; a pointer on main would lead to a path that doesn't exist there.

This description

The five broken article links (see the top of this comment).
"Every count cited … was queried from the live graph" is false for the adopter figures (243, 251, 299k, 93,806) and the historical ones (349, 595/59). None of the Pack table's columns appear in the articles.
The design diff is missing. Recipe 35 from base is the measurement that matters for a docs-only PR, and it is empty. Say so.
The Try It block overclaims npm run check (see the media plan section) and uses pnpm.
Bare decision codes. "MD-36, …, MD-37, …, MD-38" and "MD-41 & MD-42" should lead with names.
Missing against AGENTS.md's PR standard:
- a statement that no human view moves;
- "Rulings: none";
- a forward section with "why now", a re-entry condition, deferred items with triggers, and the refused list.
The Article 3 tour stop promises three captures and shows one.
A full replacement draft that meets the standard exists. Happy to post it if wanted.

Align the search field name with the reader contract.

The matcher indexes the node label field. The reader contract names this field “anchor labels.” “Binding labels” is not established equivalent terminology and may imply binding metadata.

Every corpus number in this series is derived from the graph at the pinned commit—re-run the queries in [The Living-PR Refresh Playbook](#5-the-living-pr-refresh-playbook) rather than inheriting counts across updates.


🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Narrow the pinned-count claim.

Line 4 says every corpus count uses the graph at 5a0b22c. Article 07 measures its adopter count at PR #33 (Line 123), and Article 08 measures its historical count at 46f0280 (Line 129). This also conflicts with the distinction in Line 151. Limit the statement to Protocol-owned counts and retain the cited sources for adopter and historical counts.

Suggested wording

- Every corpus number in this series is derived from the graph at the pinned commit + Every Protocol-corpus number in this series is derived from the graph at the pinned commit; adopter and historical counts retain their cited measurement sources

Make the refresh blocks fail when a command fails.

If a build or query fails in Step 2, git worktree remove can still exit 0. In Step 3, wc -l can return 0 after an earlier query fails. Either block can therefore report success after an incomplete measurement. Enable fail-fast and pipefail in both blocks. Use an EXIT trap in Step 2 to remove the worktree on failure.

Also applies to: 222-222

Review comment at @docs/articles/README.md at line 178: Update the Step 2 and Step 3 refresh shell blocks to enable fail-fast behavior and pipefail so build, query, and pipeline failures propagate instead of being masked by cleanup or wc.

		## 5. Break It on Purpose: Watching the Checks Fire

		The fastest way to appreciate the checks is to trip them in `examples/checkout-v1`. Run each experiment from the repository root, then revert the edit (`git checkout -- examples/checkout-v1`) and rerun `npm run generate:example` to restore the generated files. All paths below are under `examples/checkout-v1/specs/orders/`.


		The last three are the demand map's entry adapters:

		- `g.findByConcept(term)` — a deterministic, case-insensitive substring match over IDs, titles, binding labels, Pack framing, Spec narratives, and section values (section keys only in the `model` section), naming the field each match was found in.
