rzen da37ed61bf A reserved key comes to life — the card window's sidebar grows a Labels section, and labels stops being somebody else's
`labels` has been a reserved tracker key since the rewrite: preserved verbatim, never
interpreted, drawn only as an anonymous row in the Details section beside `assignees` and
`due`. The owner's cards claim it for first-party use, so it joins the schema — read
leniently (a list of names, a bare scalar coercing to one, a mapping malformed and
preserved), written canonically (a quoted flow list in the order the user arranged, no
auto-sort), and removed outright when the last label goes, the way an expanded lane drops
`collapsed`.

Identity is case-insensitive and display is case-preserving, so a card carries `bug` once
however many ways the board spells it, and entries the reading cannot name ride through the
write untouched at the tail.

The section sits second, above Details — which is the point rather than a layout preference:
Details is where keys the app does *not* own are shown, and this key just stopped being one.
Rows rather than chips, because the sidebar is twenty-six characters wide. The add field
autocompletes against the board's own used-labels universe, derived from every live and
trashed card with no store beside the files, and says out loud when Return would mint a word
the board has never used.

Writes ride a `.relabel` operation of their own, because the commit composer has said
"Relabel card 'X'" since long before there was a control to press — and now the undo row says
it too.

rzen ca5d45156b A picture off the pasteboard becomes a card's file, its hero, or the board's backdrop
⌘V grows an image-data branch, below the app's own clipboard format and refused
outright while a file URL is on the pasteboard: a screenshot or a browser's Copy
Image lands as "Pasted Image.png" in the anchor card's attachments/, through the
very import path Finder file drops and ⇧⌘A take — one bracket, one Finder-style
collision ladder, one set of banners, and the same silence a drop's arrival has.
A card window's ⌘V pastes onto its own card; a focused text field still wins the
selector natively. A file-shaped flavor travels byte for byte, PNG preferred when
several are offered; TIFF and BMP are re-encoded to PNG, being interchange
encodings rather than files anyone wants in a folder.

The hero key gets the setter it was born owing: "Set as Hero" on any image row of
the attachment list, "Remove Hero" on the row that holds it, with menu-bar twins
so the context entry is nobody's only home. It writes as a restyle — one key, one
bracket, one invertible step on the window's own stack — and replaces rather than
refusing, because a card has one hero and the row that has it says Remove instead.

Edit ▸ Paste as Board Background is the same payload's other destination, taking
the existing background.image convention at its word: the picture into the board
folder as "Pasted Background.png", the colour subkey untouched, the generator's
overwrite-our-own-name rule inherited and its echo memo taught to tell the two
producers apart.

rzen ce92c24190 Hero image for cards — one of the card's own attachments, banded across its face
A card whose `hero:` names one of its own attachments draws that picture as a
banner across the full width of its plate, above the icon-and-title row,
aspect-fill cropped into a fixed 2.75 em band — 36pt at the standard body, and
em-scaled like every other figure the board draws, so it grows with the system
text size and with the board's zoom rather than shrinking against a title twice
its usual size. The figure sits deliberately under the 44pt a plain one-line
card is tall: a hero card should read as a card with a picture on it rather than
a picture with a caption, which is 03's standing rule that the title dominates.

The key's grammar is a **bare filename**, and that is what separates it from the
board background's `image` subkey rather than a nervousness about paths. A board
names a file anywhere under its root, so a path is that key's reading and where
it leads is the renderer's question. A card names one of the files it already
owns — the flat `attachments/` folder the app lists, relocates into, and carries
through every move, copy, trash and restore — so `hero: art/sketch.png` is not an
awkward spelling of a hero image, it is a value the key cannot mean. It therefore
has no reading at all: a value carrying a separator, or spelling `.`/`..`, or
empty, is malformed at the document layer, which renders it as absent and leaves
the coerce tier's trace, exactly as `width: 1.5` does. The bytes stay as written,
the resolver re-checks containment anyway, and the whole degrade family below
that — a name pointing at a missing file, an unreadable one, or one that is not
an image — ends the same way: no banner, no defect, nothing written.

That last promise is about *height* as much as about ink, so the band is given no
height at all until a picture has actually decoded. A card whose hero cannot be
drawn lays out identically to a card with no key, structurally rather than by a
branch somebody has to remember; the price is one settle per hero as a board
opens, and none after that. Everything else the face draws is attached outside
the new stack and is untouched by it — the accent stripe still runs the plate's
full leading edge across the band's corner, the selection and file-hover strokes
still ring the whole plate, the cut and drag dims still cover it, and the drop
model still registers the plate's real height, so a hero card is simply a taller
card the masonry already understands. The trash draws it too, by the one-face
rule.

Decoding is ImageIO's downsampling path off the main actor at a quarter of the
backdrop's pixel budget (`BoardBackdrop.decode` gained the limit as a parameter
rather than being copied), and the results live in one app-wide, deliberately
non-observable cache keyed on path plus the file's date and size. Non-observable
because a tracked write there would invalidate every hero face on the board,
which is the O(board) invalidation this view was rebuilt once already to shed;
each face holds its own picture in view state and seeds it from the cache, which
is also what lets the drag replica — whose preview builder is non-escaping and
cannot await anything — carry the band at the face's real height. Taking a stamp
twice from one URL value turned out to answer with the first read's date and size
however many times the bytes had changed, so `stamp(of:)` now drops its cached
resource values first; noticing a replacement is the only thing a stamp is for.

The face takes the resolved URL as a compared input rather than resolving it, for
selected-ness's reason one axis over: resolving needs the card's folder, which a
face does not know, and finding it from the snapshot would be a board walk per
face. The lane and the trash column each know their own container and compute it
once for the whole strip.

There is no in-app setter this version — the key is written by hand or by an
agent, which is why the guide bumps to v13 with a clause spelling the grammar out
beside the other card keys, and why `attachments/` gets the one-line pointer an
agent that has just written `![](attachments/x.png)` will need. "Set as Hero"
from the attachment row is future work, as is the card window and print, which
draw the same model and show no banner today.

rzen bab456c08d Collapsible lanes — frontmatter-backed slim strips outside the width division
A lane folds to a fixed slim vertical strip carrying its glyph, its card-count
badge and its title turned on its side, and the strip is deliberately not part
of the window's division: the expanded lanes' units divide what is left once
each folded strip's fixed width has come off the top, so folding a lane is a
re-divide trigger of the Show/Hide Trash family — the window never moves and
the siblings grow into what the lane gave up.

The state is a first-class lane frontmatter key, `collapsed: true`, and
document state exactly as `width` is: the files are the board, so an agent
folds a lane by writing one key. Absent means expanded, expanding removes the
key rather than writing `false` (the remove-at-default family beside a
one-unit `width`, the empty rename's `title` and the None well's
`background`), and the lane's `width` rides along untouched so expanding
restores the lane the user had. The read is `width`'s leniency one type over —
a boolean scalar or a quoted boolean word reads as itself, everything else has
no reading at all and renders as expanded, bytes preserved either way.

Toggling is the header's always-visible collapse chevron, the lane context
menu's single Collapse Lane / Expand Lane row, and a plain click anywhere on
the strip; a modified click on the strip stays the ordinary selection grammar,
so a folded lane is still selectable by pointer. The title reads bottom-up and
is justified to the top of the room below the strip's chrome (owner ruling
2026-08-08), truncating against the strip's own height.

While folded the lane draws no cards at all, which is what makes every
exclusion true by construction rather than by a guard per gesture: no card
face means no marquee target and no navigation frame, and no registered grid
means the masonry's drop zones have nothing to resolve against. What did need
code is the half that names absolute destinations — the option-arrow jumps and
the arrow seed scan past a folded lane, the lane domain's down-arrow is inert
on one, and New Card skips it (a selection inside one falls through to the
last-active lane, the stale selection's rule). A drop on the strip appends at
the lane's end, cards and Finder files alike, with an accent edge standing in
for the shadow the strip has no masonry to open; there is no hover-to-auto-
expand yet. Lane reorder works on the strip, and a dragged folded lane carries
its fold, so its shadow and its replica are the strip rather than its units.

The write is `writeLaneWidths` clause for clause — one `updateIndex` bracket,
the same stamp behaviour, the same three do-nothing paths — with two new
`WriteOperation` cases and two new undo verbs rather than one of each, because
a banner or an Edit-menu row that said "resize" after Collapse Lane would name
a control the user never touched.

rzen d5ad21c3da The board wears a picture — background becomes a mapping, and the window chrome follows it under a thin frost
background is {color:, image:} and only a mapping at every level; the board's image paints the full window under a transparent title bar, with a thin-material frost strip keeping the chrome legible and the standard accommodations intact.

rzen f68ac3668e Comments, phase 1 — storage, writer primitives, and the undo inventory
The kind: comment field table lands in IntegrityRules (the per-kind
hook's first exercise), CommentThread reads one card's thread
window-scoped (the board walk stays O(cards)), and CommentWriter gains
the five gestures: draft save, post (rename .draft to a fresh UUID,
created/modified restamped in the bracket), edit, delete into
comments/.trash/, and the purge with its crash-residue memo. Post and
delete register move-based undo steps; draft saves, edits, and the
purge deliberately register nothing (13's no-capture rule). Copy
boundaries strip comments/.trash, carry .draft verbatim, and remint
threads; comments graduates to a displacing claimed name, with .draft,
.trash, and a comment's attachments claimed one level down.
CommentPath classifies changed paths into the 06 verb family for
later announcer/composer wiring.

One stated narrowing pending a ruling (filed on the findings board):
the copy transaction's refuse-whole preflight stays cards-and-lanes —
an unstampable copied comment copies verbatim with a log line, because
comment defects never refuse.

rzen 69084fdff7 Realign code with the 2026-07-29 findings-resolution rulings
Nine rulings land as code. Reorders don't stamp — one container-change
predicate (WriteOperation.rewritesOrderOnly): within-container reorders
and the renumber rescale rewrite only order, while cross-lane, cross-board,
and trash moves stamp modified and clear modified-by; no trash special
case exists, and the m8 undo inverses conform through the same seam.
Copies are transactions: the root-strict/nested-lenient split retires for
a whole-subtree stampability preflight that refuses loudly naming the
offender, and every item-level copy severs remote/remote-state at every
level (whole-board forks carry them verbatim). Paste refuses, never
degrades: the embedded-index.md materialization and its loss row retire;
a missing staged snapshot produces nothing and posts an error-tone
one-shot named from manifest metadata. Coerce-tier fallbacks log through
the Defect stream with path context attached loader-side. Displacement is
level-uniform: a file squatting attachments inside a card heals by the
same rename ladder as board-root squatters; comments stays tolerated.
Delete Immediately joins card and lane context menus as Delete's
⌥-alternate with its own VO custom action, routed through an explicit
container so the menu target outranks standing selection. Agent guide v7
teaches the stamp discipline and the card-level attachments claim, and
sheds two stale v6 lines (lanes trash now; kind is taught). Verified
conformant, unchanged: edition-aware Undo/Redo disable, trash marquee
full-height backdrop.

Both schemes 1854 tests / 318 suites green; verify-editions 30/30.

rzen 3a9db2e78b Build the integrity service - IntegrityRules and the HealScheduler
The 2026-07-29 integrity design pass, consolidated (DESIGN/01 -
Validation and healing; DESIGN/02 - Components): IntegrityRules
(Storage, pure) is the one home for the identity predicate and
canonical form (BoardWriter.canonicalIdentity deleted, ItemID and the
loader forward to it), the per-field rulebook, uneditable shapes,
per-kind index validation, the reserved-name tables, and the trash
kind discriminator (values trusted - kind: lane/card explicit,
unrecognized falls to shape). LoadResult's ad-hoc channels fold into
one typed Defect stream (looseCardFiles / legacyTombstone /
claimedNameSquatted, per-defect heal signatures); the old accessors
survive as computed views.

HealScheduler (LiveStore) states the six-step heal pattern once -
resting-clear, lock gate, isWritableFile gate (now covering all four
heals), signature memo armed-before-attempt with explicit
clear-on-success, disk re-verify in each write half, one banner-posture
table (BannerCenter keeps all phrasing). The three hand-rolled healers
run on it with behavior preserved - including the
relocation-notice-despite-partial-failure quirk, deliberately. Heals
run at the reload tail AND at registry acquire, closing the
migration-never-fires-at-open asymmetry. Displacement runs first: a
squatted .trash would otherwise fail the migration and arm its memo
against an unchanged picture.

Claimed-name squatters (ruled today, 62c47a2) displace by the shared
Finder-style rename ladder - preserved verbatim, symlinks moved as
links, nothing stamped; AgentGuide's untouchable-skip upgrades to
displace-then-write, the CLAUDE.user.md-taken skip stands. kind stamps
on every create and backfills on any index rewrite via the on-touch
seam (placement resolver stamps nothing when the parent is unknown -
a guessed kind is worse than an absent one; board-root writers declare
theirs). Heal writes mark their EchoLedger receipts (inert in base;
pro-m1's committer will split them into their own commits). The
renumber ask-renumber-ask-again two-step is one shared helper, adopted
at all nine call sites.

69 tests added. 1738 green on both schemes.

rzen 19f67bdb78 Build BoardWriter — atomic, minimal-touch writes
The single point through which every mutation becomes a filesystem
operation: read fresh from disk (strict byte-faithful UTF-8), refuse
readable-but-uneditable frontmatter shapes, apply the edit through the
span engine, stamp modified / clear modified-by, then temp-file+rename
atomically. Renumber-visible-children is the sole minimal-touch
exception, tombstones untouched. Structured BoardWriteError carries
operation + path + reason for the future banner surface.

Alongside, three edges the card surfaced:
- The loader now decodes byte-faithfully too, so a BOM'd or non-UTF-8
  index.md is rejected at load per the encoding contract, instead of
  loading via NSString's silent BOM strip and then refusing every write.
- An appended frontmatter line adopts the file's prevailing line ending
  (a CRLF file stays uniformly CRLF when a stamp first lands in it).
- Empty-but-not-blank frontmatter ({}, null, ~) is detected as
  uneditable — appending after it would be unparseable YAML.

30 new unit tests; 176 total green.

rawValue and the coercion/malformed paths now stop at the quote-aware
inline-comment boundary, so 'title: 2048  # note' coerces to "2048"

idempotent). Strictly read-side; round-trip bytes untouched. +6 tests

rzen 4085dd7a46 Engine — duplicate keys last-wins, inline-comment re-splice
Duplicates: Yams' duplicate-key error is disarmed by placeholder-
renaming first occurrences and re-composing (line count preserved, so
span layout stays exact); reads take the last occurrence, set()
rewrites the winner and clears earlier twins, remove() clears all.
Top-level only — nested duplicates stay YAML errors (doc updated).
Re-splice: an inline comment on a rewritten scalar line survives, with
quote-aware detection so a # inside quotes is never a comment. +31
tests (118 total).

rzen cb6f6100a7 Build the frontmatter engine with byte-perfect round-trip
Yams validates and reads; writes are surgical line-span edits over
retained raw text, so untouched bytes — unknown keys, comments, odd
formatting, bodies — round-trip identically by construction. Strict
schema/order readers distinguish valid/missing/malformed for the
loader's fail-fast; lenient fields preserve malformed values verbatim;
modified-by is schema-owned. Adds the Yams package and the fixture
folder-reference wiring. 44 tests (105 cases).
