- The DOM-dump Aside block was the only double-quoted `aside repl` script in
the tree (to splice the function text), which put the agent-filled <url>
inside a double-quoted bash string: a same-origin href carrying $(...) would
run in the reviewer's shell when Phase 3 opened that page. The script is
single-quoted like every other Aside script and the function text enters
through a closed-quote segment ('"$_DUMP"'); the fallback line is
`$B js '('"$_DUMP"')()'`. A free test pins that no rendered Aside script
opens with a double quote.
- The persist block capped dumps at 10 MiB but ran gstack-redact with its
1 MiB default, so every real page between the two was deleted as
DOM_DUMP_REDACTION_BLOCKED; the gate passes --max-bytes at the dump cap and
blocks on any exit other than clean (0) or MEDIUM (2), so a redaction tool
that fails to run can no longer fall through to "persist".
- Dump hygiene removes <template> and <noscript> subtrees (invisible to the
attribute walk), inline on* handlers, and the cross-origin <link> nodes
already named in the note, so the file handed to the engine references no
remote stylesheet.
- Doctrine: the Codex design-voice prompts said "2-3 intentional motions"
against the one-authored-moment rule; the overused-display heading scoped
its ban to Persuade/Experience while the catalog and hard rules ban it
everywhere; design-consultation's Important Rule 4 still said "as primary";
design-html's blacklist header is now "Never include by default" with the
mockup/DESIGN.md/user-ask override the catalog grants; the slop gate honors
Decisions Log and Do's and Don'ts blessings like /review does; the landing
"poster" line says poster in stance, not type size; the design binary's
variant dials no longer flip light/dark for variety; gstack's DESIGN.md
rows name data labels (UI labels stay the DM Sans token) and call the
skill-bar fill and hovers functional transitions.
- design-review names how the base branch is found (gh pr view, then the
repo default; never main) for the source-mode scan and the diff-aware mode.
- frontend-scope matches the config globs at the repo root only, like the
bash arm; the parity test carries nested samples.
- Cleanups: renderCatalog's stale style option, an unused import, the
identity-map bannedFontNames, the checklist header's "same entries" claim,
the catalog header's consumer list, the orphaned main() docstring, the
plan doc's IIFE bullet. design-html's skeleton ceiling is re-measured
(54,184) for the two doctrine sentences.
Tests: AUTO-FIX rendering from the catalog, the E2E slice markers checked in
the free suite, the hygiene cases for templates/noscript/handlers/remote
links, and the review E2E counting detector rows separately from the seven
checklist plants.

# impeccable interop — gstack's design skills and the impeccable engine, catalog, and open DESIGN.md format
|
|
|
|
**Status:** Shipped on `tehran-v1` (one PR, 13 bisected commits). Promoted from the CEO plan at `~/.gstack/projects/garrytan-gstack/ceo-plans/2026-09-08-impeccable-design-interop.md`.
|
|
**Last updated:** 2026-09-08
|
|
**Authors:** garrytan (with /plan-ceo-review, /plan-eng-review, and two Codex outside-voice passes)
|
|
|
|
## What shipped
|
|
|
|
- **Detector pre-pass.** `bin/gstack-design-detect.ts` probes for an impeccable engine the user installed (never installs, downloads, or runs anything that could download) and scans local files with it. `/design-review` (source mode on a diff, DOM mode on a URL through a rendered-DOM dump), `/ship` review-lite, `/review`'s Design specialist, and `/design-html`'s one-pass slop gate run it when `IMPECCABLE_READY`. Sentinel vocabulary: `lib/design-detect-contract.ts`. Off switch: `gstack-config set design_detector off`.
|
|
- **One typed catalog.** `lib/design-catalog.ts` replaced four drifting slop lists. Every one of impeccable's 61 rule ids is mapped with gstack prose, tier, impact, confidence, and `/impeccable` handoff; gstack-only judgment tells have no brackets. `review/design-checklist.md` and `lib/dom-dump.js` are generated from `lib/`.
|
|
- **Doctrine.** Persuade / Operate / Read / Experience modes, the craft-floor reflexes, the three-looks calibration, a font procedure with role-scoped overused lists, Restrained / Committed / Full palette / Drenched color strategies.
|
|
- **Open DESIGN.md format.** `lib/design-md.ts` + `bin/gstack-design-md.ts` read, convert, and write the google-labs-code/design.md format; the conversion answer is persisted in the file's marker line. gstack's own DESIGN.md is converted.
|
|
- **Generation-time guard.** The design binary's image prompt carries a "Never:" line built from ten catalog ids.
|
|
- **Attribution.** `NOTICE.md` + `licenses/Apache-2.0.txt`.

### CEO Plan: impeccable.style interop for gstack's design skills

## Vision
|
|
|
|
### 10x Check
|
|
|
|
Every AI design skill on the market is a prose vocabulary, and two vocabularies loaded together cancel out (impeccable's own docs say so). The 10x version of "incorporate impeccable" is not a fifth vocabulary. It is gstack as the design orchestrator: it runs every deterministic check the ecosystem offers (today: impeccable's 61-rule engine, when the user installed it), speaks the shared rule ids in its own voice, reads and writes the open DESIGN.md interchange format that Google Stitch and impeccable both use, and keeps the three things nobody else has: a live-site design audit through the user's real browser (Aside), image mockups with a comparison board, and a plan-stage design review before a line of UI is written.
|
|
|
|
What the user feels: `/design-review` opens with the machine's findings already on the table, each tagged `[side-tab]` or `[nested-cards]`, then spends its judgment on hierarchy, trust, and copy. `/design-consultation` writes a DESIGN.md that impeccable, Stitch, and any future tool read without translation. The mockup board stops showing purple gradients because the generator prompt was told not to reach for them. And when the user has impeccable installed, every deferred finding ends with the command that fixes it.

### Platonic Ideal

Not run (SELECTIVE EXPANSION mode).

## Scope Decisions
|
|
|
|
| # | Proposal | Effort | Decision | Reasoning |
|
|
|---|----------|--------|----------|-----------|
|
|
| 1 | "Never:" line in `design/src/brief.ts` `briefToPrompt()` built from a pinned `MOCKUP_NEVER_NAMES` export (ten catalog ids, plain-English names, deduped) | S (human ~2 h / CC ~10 min) | ACCEPTED | Cheapest win in the plan: slop stopped at mockup generation; prompt text only; `design/test/brief.test.ts` added (no brief test exists today) |
|
|
| 2 | Detector on live URLs via a rendered-DOM dump (one shared dump script for both engines; Aside writes under `pwd`, browse engine writes under a temp dir via `$B eval --out --raw`; bash copies both into `$REPORT_DIR/dom/`), scanned by the static engine; wrapper allow-lists `${GSTACK_HOME:-$HOME/.gstack}/projects/*/designs/` as a scan root | M (human ~1.5 days / CC ~40 min) | ACCEPTED | Resolves the tension between Phase 0 scanning source and design-review Rule 4 ("never read source"); works on deployed sites; the wrapper root check, the dump script, and the `$REPORT_DIR` path fix are the real work |
|
|
| 3 | `detector: {mode, engine, total, byRule}` in `design-baseline.json`; regression mode reports ids that appeared and disappeared when `mode` matches, with an `engine changed` caveat when the engine differs | S (human ~4 h / CC ~15 min) | ACCEPTED | The number is already computed; tracked per rule id across runs; the mode gate and the engine caveat keep source-vs-DOM and engine upgrades from reading as regressions |
|
|
| 4 | Slop rubric in `$D check` (GPT-4o vision) | M (human ~2 days / CC ~40 min) | DEFERRED | Paid call per variant; vision misjudges cream palettes and nested cards; revisit once catalog LLM-tells are exercised |
|
|
| 5 | Taste-profile interplay for `overused-font` hits | S (human ~4 h / CC ~15 min) | DEFERRED | `.impeccable/config.json` ignore-value already covers the case without coupling two schemas |
|
|
| 6 | Catalog bullets in plan-ceo-review Section 11 | S | DEFERRED | plan-ceo-review skeleton has ~555 B of carve headroom; sequence after the doctrine-carve TODO |
|
|
|
|
Implementation approach decision (D1): B, the reviewed 13-commit plan, over A (detector only, 5/10) and C (B plus generation-time enforcement, 10/10). C's free half (proposal 1) accepted as a cherry-pick; its paid half (proposal 4) deferred.
|
|
|
|
Delivery: ONE PR (user decision 2026-09-08, overriding the review's two-PR suggestion). Commits stay bisected; goldens regenerated at commits 4, 7, and 9; commits 12 and 13 are whole.
|
|
|
|
## Accepted Scope (added to this plan)
|
|
|
|
**1. Generation-time slop guard (commit 7b).** `lib/design-catalog.ts` sets `mockupNever: true` on exactly these ten ids: `kicker-above-heading`, `icon-tile-stack`, `gradient-text`, `ai-color-palette`, `cream-palette`, `nested-cards`, `dark-glow`, `pulsing-dot`, and the gstack-only `identical-cards` and `hero-metrics`. It exports `MOCKUP_NEVER_NAMES: string[]` (their `name` fields, deduped, plain English, no ids). `design/src/brief.ts` `briefToPrompt()` pushes `"Never: " + MOCKUP_NEVER_NAMES.join(", ") + "."` (shipped as `Never by default (unless the brief above asks for it): …`) before its fixed tail. Import path `../../lib/design-catalog` (precedent: `design/src/receipted-fetch.ts` imports `../../lib/egress-receipt`; `scripts/build.sh` bundles relative TS into the binary; `setup` already treats `lib/` mtime as a rebuild trigger). `lib/design-catalog.ts` imports nothing from `scripts/`. The catalog invariant test checks the ten ids; the new `design/test/brief.test.ts` asserts the "Never:" line is present, precedes the fixed tail, and lists `MOCKUP_NEVER_NAMES.length` names. Binary rebuilt by `./setup`; `design/dist/` is never committed.
|
|
|
|
**2. Detector on live URLs via a rendered-DOM dump (commit 7).**
|
|
- Mode rule: the target is a URL (including an explicit `http://localhost:3000` on a feature branch) → DOM mode, no source scan. Diff-aware mode with no URL → source mode over the changed frontend dirs. Stated in the Phase 0 prose so nobody scans source "helpfully".
|
|
- Hook rule (superseded before shipping, eng review decision 35): `IMPECCABLE_HOOK: present` never skips a scan; the prose tells the agent to use gstack's rows and ignore the hook's vocabulary. DOM mode scans the dump regardless, because the hook cannot see a rendered page.
|
|
- One dump script for both engines, rendered once by the resolver as a fenced JS block, written as an IIFE expression with no single-quote characters (superseded before shipping: the script is an arrow function called in the page, spliced into the single-quoted Aside script and into `$B js '('"$_DUMP"')()'` through a closed-quote segment, never a double-quoted block; see lib/dom-dump-script.ts) (every `aside repl '...'` script is a single-quoted bash string, and `$B eval` wraps an expression): serialize the stylesheets whose `ownerNode` is a `<link>` (inline `<style>` nodes are already in the markup; serializing them too would double-count), catch cross-origin sheets and list them in a trailing HTML comment as unresolved, inject the text as `<style data-gstack-dom-css>` in `<head>`, return `document.documentElement.outerHTML`. Aside: the Phase 3 page script evaluates it, does `fs.writeFile(path.join(pwd, "{page}.dom.html"), html)` (the sandbox `fs` writes only under `pwd`), prints `ASIDE_DIR=`, and bash copies the file to `$REPORT_DIR/dom/`. Browse fallback: `_TMP=$(mktemp -d)`, write the same JS to `$_TMP/dom-dump.js`, run `$B eval "$_TMP/dom-dump.js" --out "$_TMP/{page}.dom.html" --raw` (`--out` accepts only temp dirs or cwd, `browse/src/path-security.ts:26`), then `cp` into `$REPORT_DIR/dom/`. `$B html` is not used: reading commands wrap stdout in untrusted-content markers (`browse/src/server.ts:1249-1255`). The row lives in design-review's own DOM-mode prose in `scripts/resolvers/design.ts`, not in the shared `{{BROWSE_FALLBACK}}` table (that table renders into ten skills). Same script, same serialization on both engines; page content may still differ by session. `{page}` reuses the slug the Phase 3 screenshots already use. In DOM mode, findings' `file:line` point into `{page}.dom.html`; the agent confirms the element in the rendered page (Rule 4), never by hunting a source line.
|
|
- `$REPORT_DIR` in `design-review/SKILL.md.tmpl:95` changes from `$HOME/.gstack/...` to `${GSTACK_HOME:-$HOME/.gstack}/...` (as `bin/gstack-slug` already does) so the allow-list and the report dir agree when `GSTACK_HOME` is set. The Output Structure tree at tmpl:119 and the `mkdir` at `design.ts:419` keep their `~/.gstack` shorthand; neither feeds the allow-list.
|
|
- Sequencing: in DOM mode the scan runs once, after the last Phase 3 page script has produced its dump; in source mode the scan runs in Setup. Phase 9 recomputes (DOM mode re-dumps the affected pages after reload and rescans; source mode rescans the touched files); Phase 10 reports `Detector: N → M`.
|
|
- Scan: `gstack-design-detect.ts scan --format gstack "$REPORT_DIR/dom"`; the wrapper's target validation accepts paths under the repo root OR under `${GSTACK_HOME:-$HOME/.gstack}/projects/*/designs/` (explicit allow-list, tested with a designs path accepted and a non-designs sibling refused). Report line once: "static scan of the rendered DOM; cross-origin CSS not resolved".
|
|
- The load-bearing assumption (impeccable's static engine reads inline `<style>` in a `.html` file) is pinned in commit 1, not commit 13: the fixture set includes `review-eval-design-slop.html` served locally, dumped with `$B eval dom-dump.js --out --raw`, and scanned. DOM mode ships in commit 7 on top of that fixture.
|
|
|
|
**3. Detector counts in the regression baseline (commit 7).** The `design-baseline.json` template and regression prose live in `scripts/resolvers/design.ts` (DESIGN_METHODOLOGY Phase 6, the JSON block and "Regression Output"), not in the skill template; edit there. Field: `detector: { mode: "dom"|"source", engine, total, byRule: {id: n} }`. `engine` is the version parsed from the READY path when it is the `~/.impeccable/bin/<version>/` cache, or from a sibling `VERSION` file, otherwise `sha256:<12 hex>` of the binary (superseded before shipping: never a filesystem path); a version field in `detect --json` output wins if the fixture shows one. Previous baseline = newest `${GSTACK_HOME:-$HOME/.gstack}/projects/$SLUG/designs/design-audit-*/design-baseline.json` older than today's `$REPORT_DIR` (a second run on the same day overwrites today's baseline and compares against the most recent prior day's, by design). Diff only when `mode` matches; otherwise say "detector modes differ (dom vs source), no delta". When `engine` differs, print the delta with the caveat `engine changed X → Y; rule set may differ`. Absent field → "no detector baseline (first scan)", never `+N`. Output: ids that appeared, ids that disappeared, totals, one example row in the prose (`+ kicker-above-heading (2) - gradient-text (1) total 14 → 9`). Known limitation stated: live DOM dumps jitter (ads, timestamps, A/B), so count deltas are advisory and id appear/disappear is the signal.

|
|
## Deferred to TODOS.md
|
|
- `$D check` slop rubric (P3, M): add catalog LLM-only tells to `design/src/check.ts` once the catalog's LLM-tell entries have been exercised in reviews; cost per variant and vision false positives are the open questions.
|
|
- Taste-profile interplay (P3, S): downgrade a detector `overused-font` hit to polish when the value is in the user's approved taste profile; today `impeccable hooks ignore-value` covers it.
|
|
- plan-ceo-review Section 11 catalog bullets (P3, S): blocked on the plan-ceo-review doctrine carve (TODOS.md line ~1100).
|
|
|
|
## Reviewer Concerns
|
|
|
|
Three adversarial review rounds (scores 6 → 8 → 7 out of 10; 26 issues raised, 26 fixed). The nine fixes from round 3 were applied after the last round and are therefore unreviewed: temp-dir `--out` then `cp` for the browse fallback; hook-skip scoped to source mode; `<link>`-only stylesheet inlining; `engine changed` caveat in the diff rule; `$B eval` row kept out of the shared fallback table; the IIFE/no-single-quote constraint on the shared script; DOM-dump fixture captured in commit 1; Phase 9 computes and Phase 10 reports; wording (session-dependent dumps, prior-day baseline, `{page}` placeholder, brief test asserts `MOCKUP_NEVER_NAMES.length`). Residual risk the reviewers named and this plan accepts: design-review's eager budget will need its fixture refreshed in commit 7 (expected, not conditional).
