Full relative text scaling per DESIGN/10: BoardMetrics is the board
strip's geometry as a pure function of the body point size
(CardWindowMetrics' twin) — lane plate/header/band, card
corner/stripe/padding, masonry spacing, the drop model's nominal card
height, resize-handle geometry, trash hatch pitch, and both window
floors all derive from an em; CardFaceMetrics folded in. The two fixed
font sizes (welcome brand/glyph) went relative; the toolbar search
field is 17 ems like the transient bar's. The no-horizontal-scroll
invariant is pinned by test at six text sizes by twelve lane counts.
Accommodations is Motion's sibling for the visual settings: Increase
Contrast adds a flat point to strokes (monotone, hierarchy-preserving),
gives borderless card/lane plates a resting separator hairline, and
takes faded accents to full alpha; Reduce Transparency turns the
transient search bar's glass solid and does the same for the alpha
washes that composite over a user-chosen board background (trash plate,
hatched header, drag shadow). Reduce Motion audited — every animated
surface already routes through Motion with a reduced variant; no gaps.
Full Keyboard Access: the template chooser's tiles were pointer-only —
now focusable, arrow-navigable (clamped, StyleWellGrid's rule), Space
picks, Return stays the sheet's default action, focus names the
selection one-way. The board's single tab stop shows its focus ring
under FKA (focusEffectDisabled inverts). Style editor verified already
conformant. Edge accents verified text-free; trash hatch pitch now
font-derived so it still reads as hatching at large text.
1549 unit tests green, both schemes build.

The board speaks when files change under the user, per DESIGN/10 § Live
board announcements. BoardDiff is the pure snapshot summarizer (identity
sets for cards/lanes added/edited/moved/deleted — ids, not tallies, so
pro-m1's semantic commit engine can build on it; edited = rendered
content only, moved beats edited, implied events don't steal the
subject). BoardAnnouncer is the decision seam: focusOutcome computes the
vanishing-focus sentence and the walk-up-then-sideways recovery (next
lane by order, else previous, board container only when none remain,
never the trash); speech(for:) is the one-sentence precedence ladder —
raised condition > bracket completion > cleared condition > vanished
focus > digest — foreign-only for the last two rungs, so app-mediated
echoes stay silent.
BoardStore.land assembles ReloadFacts and posts exactly one sentence per
reload through the injectable announce outlet (AccessibilityAnnouncer,
medium priority, never interrupting). Selection recovery layers on top
of ItemReferenceSet re-resolution — survivors veto, the emptied
selection lands on the vanished item's lane and re-arms ⌘N's active-lane
memory. performWholesale(announcing:) arms a completion phrase consumed
by the closing reload — nil on every base bracket today; pro-m1 fills
git phrasings. Locks raised outside the reload path (vanished root,
unwritable location) announce through the same ladder, and the banner
strip is a labeled "Board status" container whose row labels are the
announced sentences (AccessibilityPhrases.bannerLabel — one string for
eye and ear).
Announcements classify at reload granularity (WatchOrigin) as a
deliberate interim: DESIGN/02's EchoLedger (per-file classification, the
announcer's specified input, git-free) was scheduled with the
auto-committer that the edition split moved to pro-m1 — filed on the
Redesign board for a ruling. 1533 unit tests green, both schemes build.

02 ratified a warning-tone class for non-failure losses — content that
didn't arrive though nothing failed: a degraded paste, folders skipped
from a Finder drop, their future kin. Loss rows take the one-shot's
dismissable-untimed lifecycle (a loss the user didn't notice is the
harm) and rank below the true failures, above commit and attachment
notices. BannerCenter grows LossBanner, postLoss, and the
skipped-folders phrasing; the degraded-paste notice moves off its
signpost onto the new class, ending its too-quiet ranking.

The banner surface as one vocabulary (Kanban/LiveStore/BannerCenter,
Kanban/UI/BannerStripView): a pure precedence rule — in-progress pinned
above the collapse (ratified mid-build), lock > breakage > one-shot
write failures > commit+attachment, signposts last — with all
user-facing phrasing owned here via exhaustive switches over the closed
WriteOperation enum; free-form English survives only in diagnostics.
performWrite posts its failures before rethrowing, so no one-shot can
bypass the strip; refusals under lock post nothing.
The lock vocabulary completes: vanishedRoot and unwritableLocation join
bracketedReloadFailed, each with its own clearing rule (unwritable
clears only on a reconciling reload's writability re-probe). The
registry now owns root recovery: bookmark re-resolution absorbs renames
transparently, a dead root locks read-only and re-arms FSEvents on the
gone path so the root's return round-trips back through rootChanged,
re-minting and re-keying on the way. DirtyBufferGuard is the one modal
moment, retry / save a copy / discard, no fourth button.
36 new tests; full suite 333 tests in 62 suites green. Five findings
filed on the Redesign board.
