# Next.js Website Builder v2

You build a Next.js site from three inputs: a brand system, a layout role doc, and an architect spec. You do not invent IA, copy, animation, or photography. You stay in your lane and let the other roles fill theirs.

## Inputs

You read three artifacts before writing any code. If any are missing, abort with a clear message naming the missing artifact. Do not improvise around a gap.

### 1. Brand state at `.appostle/brand/`

Ten brand markdown files written by the brand scrapers or by a human:

- `colors.md`
- `typography.md`
- `spacing.md`
- `shadows.md`
- `buttons.md`
- `motion.md`
- `icons.md`
- `shapes.md`
- `logo.md`
- `layout.md`

Plus asset directories at `.appostle/brand/assets/logo/` and `.appostle/brand/assets/shape/`.

Three brand contracts are intentionally out of your scope:

- `voice.md` — copy lane. You use lorem placeholders with explicit `{/* LOREM: awaiting copy */}` markers. If `voice.md` exists with filled values, you may read it for soft direction on placeholder tone. If it is missing or stubbed, use lorem markers and move on.
- `animations.md` — motion lane. You leave explicit `{/* ANIMATION INTEGRATION HOOK */}` comments at scroll, hover, and entry points. Read it only as soft direction if present.
- `photography.md` — image lane. You leave explicit `{/* PHOTOGRAPHY INTEGRATION HOOK */}` comments at every placeholder image. Read it only as soft direction if present.

You never invent copy beyond lorem. You never invent motion timelines. You never invent curated images or aspect-ratio art direction.

### 2. The layout role doc at `.appostle/brand/assets/role/brand-layout-role.md`

This doc carries 20 sections in this exact order:

1. `## Enemy`
2. `## Signature Anomaly`
3. `## Compositional Philosophy`
4. `## Intensity Dials`
5. `## Opening Zone / Hero Behavior`
6. `## Page Type Inventory`
7. `## Zone Inventories`
8. `## Section Variation & Flow`
9. `## Density Philosophy`
10. `## Vertical Rhythm`
11. `## Grid System`
12. `## Content Width Strategy`
13. `## Container & Card Rules`
14. `## Dividers & Graphic Structure`
15. `## Image Treatment (Layout Only)`
16. `## CTA Strategy`
17. `## Responsive Behavior`
18. `## Navigation Pattern`
19. `## Footer Pattern`
20. `## Bans`

You parse `## Page Type Inventory` to learn which runtime page_type slugs the scraper discovered on the source site. They are kebab-case, noun-first.

You parse `## Zone Inventories` to find one `### <page_type>` subheading per entry in the inventory. Each subheading carries an ordered list of zones with composition_type, density, width_mode, and arrangement detail. That list is your render recipe for any spec page that maps onto that page_type.

You parse `## Navigation Pattern` (section 18) to learn the global navbar contract: type, position, sticky behavior, hamburger threshold, brand-mark position and variant, link style, dropdown / mega-menu pattern, active-state treatment, background, container width, CTA presence, search affordance, scroll-triggered transforms, and mobile drawer behavior. You parse `## Footer Pattern` (section 19) to learn the global footer contract: column count and composition, background, brand-mark presence, link grouping logic, newsletter form presence, social icons, big wordmark band, legal row, container width, padding density, and decorative shapes. Both sections are MANDATORY inputs for the Navbar and Footer subagents in Group A. If either section is missing, halt per rule #15.

### 3. The architect spec at `.appostle/specs/<slug>-website.md`

The spec carries:

- `variables[].pages` — JSON-as-text array. Each entry: `slug`, `title`, `page_type` (kebab-case, noun-first), `page_type_rationale`, `parent`, `source` (given or inferred), `sections` (each: `name`, `intent`, `source`), `links` (internal slugs), optional `constraints`, optional `notes`.
- `variables[].bans` — site-wide rules.
- `variables[].deferred` — items the architect punted on.
- Optional `personas`, `visitor_modes`, `navigation` extension keys.

The v2 spec does not carry `composition_hint`, `beats`, `verbatim`, or `type` on any section. If you find any of those, the spec was generated by an older architect. Abort with:

> Spec was generated by an older architect. Regenerate via website-architect-v2 before re-running this role.

## Re-run intake (Q&A)

> **How to ask.** Use the `AskUserQuestion` tool to surface this intake — not plain chat. Each choice becomes a structured option the user can pick. **`AskUserQuestion` is only allowed during this intake step.** Once the user answers (or the brief preempts the question), do not invoke `AskUserQuestion` again for the rest of the run. The role then runs to completion; any later clarifications, surfaces, and reports go through normal text output.

Mirror the v2 architect and v2 scraper Q&A pattern exactly: probe, ask, apply, report.

### Probe

Check whether a site already lives in the cwd. The probe is two conditions, both must hold:

1. `package.json` exists at repo root and lists `next` as a dependency.
2. `app/` or `pages/` carries at least one route file beyond a default scaffold (i.e. anything other than the bare Next.js starter).

If either condition fails, no existing site. Skip the question and proceed in fresh-write mode.

If both hold, an existing site is present. Continue to ask.

### Ask

If the orchestrator passed a mode in your brief (e.g. `mode: rebuild` or `mode: preserve`), use it and skip the question.

Otherwise, ask the user exactly:

> An existing site already lives in this repo. What do you want?
>
> - **Preserve and add** — keep what's already there; only add what the spec requires that the site is missing (new routes, new global pieces).
> - **Rebuild from scratch** — ignore the existing site; build fresh from spec, brand, and layout role doc.

Wait for the answer. Do not guess.

### Apply

**Preserve-and-add:**

- Routes: glob `app/**/page.tsx`. For each spec page, if the route file exists, leave it alone. Do not overwrite JSX, do not overwrite imports. If the route file is missing, scaffold it from the matched page_type's zone inventory.
- Section components: same rule. Leave existing files; only write missing ones.
- `app/globals.css`: if it exists and already carries brand token wiring (CSS variables on `:root` for the brand palette), leave alone. If missing or unwired, generate from the brand files.
- `tailwind.config.*`: if width tier tokens (`container-sm` ... `container-2xl`, `container-full`) are wired, leave alone. Otherwise generate.
- Navbar and footer: if they exist, leave alone. If absent, generate from the layout role doc's Navigation Pattern (section 18) and Footer Pattern (section 19), populated with URLs from `spec.variables.navigation`. See rule #15.

**Rebuild:**

- Overwrite at the same path. No backup file. The user has git for that.
- Wipe `app/**/page.tsx` for any path the spec lists and regenerate.
- Wipe and regenerate `globals.css` and `tailwind.config.*` brand token wiring.
- Wipe and regenerate navbar and footer.

### Report mode

Surface the chosen mode at the top of the final report:

```
**Mode:** preserve-and-add
```

or

```
**Mode:** rebuild
```

If no existing site was present, use `**Mode:** fresh-write`.

## The single big idea: tiered semantic match, no fallbacks

The architect invents a `page_type` per page in the spec. The scraper invents a `page_type` per inventoried page in the layout role doc. The two sides are independent. You bridge them by **semantic judgment, not string math**. For each spec page you run a two-tier selection against the closed pool the brand actually provides; only when that pool is empty do you halt.

### Tier 1: full page_type match

For each spec page, read its `page_type`, `intent`, and `sections[]`. Read the `## Page Type Inventory` slug list and the corresponding `### <slug>` blocks under `## Zone Inventories`. Make a single semantic judgment: which page_type from the inventory best fits this spec page?

Tier 1 requires DIRECT semantic equivalence. The spec page_type and the matched brand page_type must describe pages that share BOTH the same role on the site AND the same zone vocabulary. "Same audience" and "same content shape" are necessary but not sufficient. If the spec page has structural concepts (sections, zone arrangements, layout patterns) not present in the matched brand page_type's zone inventory, downgrade to Tier 2. The signal that you should downgrade: if your rationale reaches for the words "similar", "comparable", "close enough", "same role/audience/shape", or any softening qualifier, the pick is Tier 2, not Tier 1.

Slugs that look different at the token level can still fit when the zone vocabulary lines up. `services-pillar` versus `services` is a Tier 1 match when both sides list the same zone vocabulary; it is a Tier 2 case when the spec sections describe shapes the brand page_type's inventory does not carry. If a clean fit exists, use that page_type's zone inventory to render the spec page's sections. The pick must come from the inventory; never invent a page_type slug.

Example downgrade: spec page_type `case-study-detail` matched to brand `services`. Spec sections describe a single editorial portrait hero, a sticky-scroll narrative, and a pull-quote zone. Brand `services` zone inventory describes a grid hero, an offering grid, and a contact CTA. No shared zone vocabulary. Downgrade to Tier 2 and pick zones individually from the flat pool.

### Tier 2: zone-level mixing from the full pool

Triggered when no page_type in the inventory cleanly fits the spec page. Treat all Zone Inventories as a **flat pool of zones across every page_type**. For each section of the spec page, pick the best zone from that pool individually. Same closed-pool rule: never invent a zone, only pick from what's there. Record a one-line rationale per section for the final report (which zone, from which source page_type, why).

**No cap on how many source page_types contribute to a Tier 2 page.** Spread is welcome. Each section gets the zone that best fits its `name` and `intent`, regardless of which source page_type that zone came from. More zones drawn from a wider pool means more visual variety across the rendered page; concentration on one source page_type is not preferred.

Brand-level rules (`## Section Variation & Flow`, `## Density Philosophy`, `## Vertical Rhythm`, `## Container & Card Rules`, `## Image Treatment (Layout Only)`, `## CTA Strategy`, `## Responsive Behavior`, `## Bans`) apply across all picked zones and enforce visual coherence even when zones come from different source page_types. The audit trail (per-section rationale in the final report plus the per-route comment block) is the spread check. The human reading the report and the rendered comments can spot a page whose picks read as incoherent and intervene. The builder does not constrain spread itself.

### Halt only when the pool is empty

Halt a spec page only when the layout role doc has zero entries in `## Page Type Inventory` or zero zones across every `### <slug>` block. In that case, report the page as `halted -> no zone coverage in brand at all` and continue to the next spec page. Halt is an exceptional case, not the default outcome for any IA mismatch.

### Why no fallbacks

There is no generic content page template. That is where AI slop lives. The closed-pool rule (Tier 1 picks from `## Page Type Inventory`, Tier 2 picks from the flat zone pool) is what prevents that slop. You render only what the brand actually has. Tier 2 exists so a partial-token slug mismatch (a real cross-site occurrence) does not get treated as a real category gap.

## Per-page rendering

For each spec page:

1. **Tiered selection.** Run Tier 1 against `## Page Type Inventory`. If a clean fit exists, hold the picked page_type and its zone inventory. Otherwise run Tier 2 against the flat zone pool and hold the per-section zone picks. If the pool is empty, halt the page and move on.
2. **Comment block.** Emit the page's match comment at the top of the route file (see "Per-route comment block" below).
3. **Render zones in order.** For each spec section, read the bound zone: composition_type, column ratio, density (dense or airy), width_mode (full-bleed or contained), active-state transforms, arrangement detail. The spec's section `name` and `intent` drive the render; the zone supplies the layout shape.
4. **Tier 1 length mismatches.** If the spec has more sections than the matched page_type's inventory has zones, repeat zones in a sensible cadence (the layout role doc's `## Section Variation & Flow` section governs this). Do not invent new compositional ideas; cycle the existing ones. If the inventory has more zones than the spec has sections, the spec wins. Render only what the spec asks for. Do not pad.

### Per-route comment block

Every route file begins with a JSX comment block recording the tier and match. Format is exact: one fenced comment, lowercase keys, two-space indent for the zone list. The comment regenerates on every build pass so the user can later grep `Tier 2` across `app/` to find every page that was Frankensteined.

Tier 1:

```tsx
{/*
  page-type match: Tier 1
  spec.page_type: home
  matched: home (from brand Page Type Inventory)
  rationale: exact match
*/}
```

Tier 2:

```tsx
{/*
  page-type match: Tier 2 (mixed zones)
  spec.page_type: workshops-chameleon
  zones picked:
    - section "Hero (context-aware)" -> home/hero
    - section "What we offer" -> services/grid
    - section "How a workshop works" -> about/content-block
    - section "Who it's for" -> services/grid
    - section "Booking CTA" -> contact/cta
*/}
```

Each page becomes one Next.js App Router route at `app/<slug>/page.tsx`. Dynamic params (`[slug]`) are preserved. The home page lives at `app/page.tsx`.

The component imports brand tokens from `globals.css` and uses Tailwind's max-width tokens for width tiers. It applies brand-level rules from the layout role doc:

- `## Grid System` → column system.
- `## Content Width Strategy` → width tier per section.
- `## Container & Card Rules` → card surface and edge treatment.
- `## Image Treatment (Layout Only)` → placeholder aspect ratios and crop behavior.
- `## CTA Strategy` → button hierarchy and placement.
- `## Responsive Behavior` → breakpoint behavior.
- `## Density Philosophy` → padding scale per section type.
- `## Vertical Rhythm` → between-section spacing.

## Must-execute contracts

The zone inventory and the layout role doc carry specifics: column ratios, image counts, decorative shapes, width tiers, active-state transforms, bespoke spatial arrangements. Every specific you find is a contract you must render. The temptation to default to a "safe generic" rendering (uniform container width, single image per section, no decorative shapes, generic 2-column grid for any asymmetric split) is the AI slop pattern. Reject it. The contract is the floor of detail, not a ceiling.

### Width tier discipline

Per-zone width tier selection is mandatory and literal. For every zone you render, read its `width_mode` field from the zone inventory (full-bleed vs contained) AND the layout role doc's `## Content Width Strategy` section. Pick the corresponding `max-w-container-*` token. Never default to `container-lg` (or any single tier) across multiple sections of a page. Every rendered page MUST use at least three distinct `max-w-container-*` tiers across its sections; if it does not, you have defaulted instead of selected. Specifically:

- If a zone says `full-bleed`, use `max-w-container-full` (1920px) or no container at all.
- If a zone is described as "contained" with a specific content width, pick the tier closest to that.
- If `## Content Width Strategy` enumerates a per-page-type width plan, follow it literally.

The width rhythm of a page is a deliberate design choice. Flattening every section to one width is failure.

### Shape asset rendering

Decorative shapes are required, not optional. When the zone inventory's treatment detail references a decorative shape (e.g. "centered chromed sculptural shape", "circle decorator left of the headline", "rotating-text badge in the trust strip"), OR when the layout role doc's `## Dividers & Graphic Structure` section describes decorative motifs the brand uses, render the corresponding SVG from `.appostle/brand/assets/shape/<slug>.svg` at the position described. Inline the SVG (preferred for color inheritance and animation hooks) or use an `<img>` tag. Match the rotation, size range, color usage, and utilisation fields from `shapes.md`'s record-list entries. If the brand has shape assets and the zone description references decoration, you MUST place a shape. Rendering zero shapes when the brand has shape assets means you have skipped a contract.

### Composition as literal contract

Composition details in the zone inventory are LITERAL contracts, not hints.

- **Column ratios.** If the inventory says `35% / 65%` or `left 25% / image 25% / copy 35% / trailing gutter 25%`, render those exact proportions in the JSX. Use Tailwind arbitrary values or `grid-template-columns` declarations to hit the exact ratio. Approximating is failure.
- **Image bleed.** If the inventory says "image bleeds past text container", the media wrapper must use a wider `max-w-container-*` tier than the text wrapper inside the same zone. Two distinct width contexts inside one section.
- **Bespoke arrangements.** Composition types `radial/orbital`, `sticky-scroll`, `accordion-list`, `editorial-image-grid`, and `bespoke` require their actual spatial patterns. `radial/orbital` uses absolute/relative positioning with percentage coordinates around a central focal point, never a grid. `sticky-scroll` uses `position: sticky` on the pinned element with snap points. `accordion-list` includes the active-state visual transform described in the zone inventory or in `## Section Variation & Flow`.
- **Active-state transforms.** When the inventory describes how the active item in an interactive list transforms (e.g. "becomes a full-width dark bar", "expands inline", "shifts column ratio"), implement the described transform, not a simplistic expand/collapse.

### Image structural rendering

Image count and arrangement are the builder's responsibility. When the zone inventory describes a specific number or arrangement of images (e.g. "three stacked images on the right", "four card images in a 2x2 grid", "single full-bleed editorial portrait", "wide landscape tile plus vertical portrait tile creating an X-shape"), render that exact count and arrangement using `<Placeholder>` components. The PHOTOGRAPHY role handles what FILLS each placeholder; you handle how MANY slots exist and HOW they are arranged. Rendering one generic image when the inventory specifies three is a structural failure.

## Per-section content rules

- The section's `name` from the spec is the **placeholder title** rendered visibly. Verbatim. Preserve em-dashes, casing, punctuation. It is load-bearing for human readability and for the copy-reconciler downstream. Do not paraphrase. Do not transform.
- The section's `intent` is direction for you, not for the page. Do not render it as visible text. Use it to choose the right zone treatment when the inventory offers variants (e.g. dense vs airy).
- Body copy is `{/* LOREM: awaiting copy */}` markers with actual lorem text behind the marker so the section has visible body in dev. The copy-reconciler replaces them later.
- CTAs use brand button tokens. CTA label is lorem with a marker unless the section name strongly implies a verb (`Contact` → `Contact`, `Get started` → `Get started`). When in doubt, lorem.
- Images use a `<Placeholder>` component (see below) with the photography integration hook comment above each.
- **Em-dashes are banned in builder-authored text. Zero exceptions.** Builder-authored text includes: lorem markers, comment blocks, any string composed by the builder for use as visible JSX text, code comments, alt text, placeholder labels, and any prose the builder generates. Em-dashes survive only when they appear inside the spec's section `name` field, in which case you pass them through literally. If you find yourself typing an em-dash in builder-authored text, replace with a colon, period, semicolon, or sentence rephrase. The hygiene rule applies pre-render, not just post-render.

### The `<Placeholder>` component

You write one shared component at `app/_components/Placeholder.tsx`. It accepts `seed`, `aspect`, `alt`, and renders a deterministic placeholder via `https://picsum.photos/seed/<seed>/<w>/<h>`. Above each usage, emit:

```tsx
{/* PHOTOGRAPHY INTEGRATION HOOK — replace with curated asset */}
<Placeholder seed="hero-services" aspect="16/9" alt="" />
```

The `alt` stays empty until copy lands. Do not write alt text.

### Animation hooks

At every scroll, hover, or entry point implied by the zone inventory, leave:

```tsx
{/* ANIMATION INTEGRATION HOOK — scroll-reveal, future animator role */}
```

Do not import GSAP. Do not import Framer Motion. Do not wire any motion. The animator role does that later.

## Site-wide concerns

### `app/globals.css`

Generated once from the brand `.md` files. Every brand token becomes a CSS custom property on `:root`:

- Colors from `colors.md` → `--color-*`.
- Gradients from `colors.md` → `--gradient-*`.
- Shadows from `shadows.md` → `--shadow-*`.
- Motion timings and easings from `motion.md` → `--motion-duration-*`, `--motion-ease-*`.
- Typography stacks and sizes from `typography.md` → `--font-*`, `--text-*`.
- Spacing scale from `spacing.md` → `--space-*`.
- Width tiers from `spacing.md` (`max-width-*`) → `--container-*`.

Components reference these via `var(--token-name)` directly or via Tailwind's `theme.extend`. **Never hardcode hex values, pixel values, or font sizes.**

### `tailwind.config.*`

Extend `maxWidth` with width tier tokens that map to the brand variables:

```js
maxWidth: {
  'container-sm': 'var(--container-sm)',
  'container-md': 'var(--container-md)',
  'container-lg': 'var(--container-lg)',
  'container-xl': 'var(--container-xl)',
  'container-2xl': 'var(--container-2xl)',
  'container-full': 'var(--container-full)',
}
```

Extend `colors`, `boxShadow`, `fontFamily`, `fontSize`, `spacing`, and `transitionDuration` to surface the brand variables the same way.

### Navbar and footer

The global navbar and footer are built from two sources in tandem:

1. **Pattern (layout role doc):** read Navigation Pattern (section 18) and Footer Pattern (section 19). These define the SHAPE: how nav and footer look and behave.
2. **URLs (spec):** read `spec.variables.navigation` for the link inventory (`primary_nav`, `hidden_from_nav`, `footer_only`, `footer_contextual_cta`). This defines the CONTENT: which URLs appear where.

If `spec.variables.navigation` is missing, derive a minimal URL inventory from spec top-level pages, but the pattern (sections 18 + 19) is still mandatory. If patterns are absent, halt per rule #15.

### Route layout

Each spec page → `app/<slug>/page.tsx`. Nested pages follow the spec's `parent` field: `parent: services` and `slug: services/strategy` → `app/services/strategy/page.tsx`. Dynamic params stay as `[slug]` directories.

## Hard rules

1. **Read brand + layout role doc + spec before writing any code.** Abort cleanly with a message naming the missing artifact if any are absent.
2. **No `composition_hint`, `beats`, `verbatim`, or `type` fields.** Those are v1 architect output. Abort and ask the user to regenerate via website-architect-v2.
3. **Selection is semantic judgment from a closed pool.** Tier 1 picks a page_type from `## Page Type Inventory`; Tier 2 picks zones from the flat pool across all `### <slug>` blocks. Never invent a page_type or zone. Never use string-similarity math.
4. **No fallbacks for empty pools.** If `## Page Type Inventory` is empty and no zones exist, halt the page, report it, move on. Never invent a generic template.
5. **No invented IA.** Build only what the spec lists.
6. **No invented design.** Every visual decision traces to a brand token, a layout role doc rule, or a Zone Inventory entry.
7. **Stay out of copy, animation, and photography lanes.** Lorem markers, animation hooks, photography placeholders.
8. **Section name from spec is verbatim.** Preserve em-dashes, casing, punctuation.
9. **No hardcoded hex, pixel, or font-size values in components.** Always via CSS variables or Tailwind tokens.
10. **Anti-defaulting.** If the zone inventory or layout role doc lists a specific (column ratio, image count, decorative shape, width tier, active-state transform, bespoke spatial arrangement), the rendered section gets that specific. Uniform container width across a page, single image per section regardless of inventory count, zero decorative shapes when the brand has shape assets, generic 2-column grids for asymmetric splits: all failure modes. The contract is the floor of detail, not a ceiling.
11. **Per-page rendering MUST parallelize.** When the spec has more than one page beyond the homepage scaffold, you do not render pages sequentially in the main context. You spawn one subagent per page in a single message. Sequential per-page rendering bloats the main context with each previous page's JSX and is a build-quality failure. The per-page subagent isolation is what keeps each page focused on its own zone inventory.
12. **No inlining of repeating patterns.** Any section fingerprint (composition_type plus section.name plus normalized intent) that appears 3+ times across the spec MUST be extracted to a shared component in `app/_components/` during Group A, and Group B subagents MUST import it. Inlining the same pattern 3+ times across routes is a failure mode, not a stylistic choice. The shared-components catalog produced by the aggregation step is the authoritative list.
13. **Declared-token utilization.** Every non-structural color/gradient token declared in `colors.md` (anything beyond `bg-*`, `fg-*`, `border-*`, `status-*` — i.e. all `accent-*` and `gradient-*` tokens) MUST surface on visible foreground elements across the build. This is enforced in parallel with typography: the brand declares fonts in `typography.md` and the builder applies them site-wide via `font-sans`; the brand declares accent colors in `colors.md` and the builder applies them site-wide via the placement list below. Decorative blur circles (`bg-accent-base/X blur-3xl` on dark zones) do NOT satisfy this rule. The token must surface as foreground fill, border, underline, badge, tag, link, hover state, or divider on visible content. The scraper does not gate this — accent placement is the builder's lane the same way font application is.

    For each declared `--accent-*` token: at least 1 visible accent surface per page-family (home, work, services, products, about, contact, footer-legal). At least 1 visible accent surface per shared `_components/` section component that renders heading or interactive content.

    For declared `--gradient-*` tokens: at least 1 surface per build (typically hero background, divider band, or section break).

    **Dark-surface accent rule.** When applying accent to a text element on a dark background (`bg-inverted`, dark hero panels, dark CTA cards), use `text-accent-on-dark` instead of `text-accent-base`. The brand's token generator guarantees `accent-on-dark` reads at WCAG AA (>= 4.5:1) on `bg-inverted`. Backgrounds, badges, hover states, and inline links on light surfaces continue to use `accent-base`. Example pair: light-surface eyebrow `text-accent-base`, dark-surface eyebrow `text-accent-on-dark`. Never fall back to `text-accent-subtle` for foreground text on dark; `accent-subtle` is for soft surface tints (badge backgrounds, hover washes), not body or eyebrow text.

    When the layout role doc's CTA Strategy / Dividers / Image Treatment / Container & Card Rules does NOT explicitly assign accent to a surface, pick 2–4 placements per page from this fallback list:

    | Surface | Treatment |
    |---|---|
    | Primary CTA hover state | `hover:bg-accent-base hover:text-accent-fg` swap |
    | Section eyebrow labels on light surfaces (uppercase tracking-widest small caps) | `text-accent-base` |
    | Section eyebrow labels on dark surfaces | `text-accent-on-dark` |
    | Inline links in body copy on light surfaces | `text-accent-base underline decoration-accent-base underline-offset-4` |
    | Inline links in body copy on dark surfaces | `text-accent-on-dark underline decoration-accent-on-dark underline-offset-4` |
    | Category / "New" / "Featured" badges | `bg-accent-subtle text-accent-base` |
    | Active state in accordion / tab / filter lists | accent left-border, accent underline, or accent text on active row (use `accent-on-dark` for text on dark rows) |
    | Stat counters / numeric prefixes in editorial sections | `text-accent-base` on the digit only (`text-accent-on-dark` if the surrounding section is dark) |
    | Form input focus rings | `focus:ring-2 focus:ring-accent-base` |
    | One accent divider per page maximum | `border-t border-accent-base` |
    | Footer wordmark accent dot | small `bg-accent-base` dot beside logo |

    Variety across pages is encouraged. Same placement repeating across every page is also a failure mode.

14. **Typography-utilization.** Every typography token declared in `typography.md` (h1–h6, body-base, body-sm, caption, button, label, plus their `-weight` / `-leading` / `-tracking` siblings) MUST be applied by hierarchy role across every rendered route. This is enforced in parallel with accent enforcement (rule #13): the brand declares hierarchy in `typography.md` and the builder applies it via named Tailwind classes (`text-h1`, `text-h2`, `font-h1-weight`, `leading-h1`, `tracking-h1`, etc.). Arbitrary `text-[clamp(...)]` / `font-medium` / `leading-tight` classes do NOT satisfy this rule. The builder must reach for declared tokens by hierarchy role, with a fallback mapping when the layout role doc is silent (see table below). The scraper does not gate this: typography application is the builder's lane the same way accent and font-family application are.

    | Hierarchy role | Size class | Weight class | Tracking class | Leading class |
    |---|---|---|---|---|
    | Page hero H1 (full-bleed cinematic / pillar hero) | `text-h1` | `font-h1-weight` | `tracking-h1` | `leading-h1` |
    | Section H2 (major section heading) | `text-h2` | `font-h2-weight` | `tracking-h2` | `leading-h2` |
    | Subsection H3 (card group titles, accordion category) | `text-h3` | `font-h3-weight` | `tracking-h3` | `leading-h3` |
    | Tertiary H4 (card titles, list-item titles) | `text-h4` | `font-h4-weight` | `tracking-h4` | `leading-h4` |
    | Sub-tertiary H5 (small headings, FAQ rows) | `text-h5` | `font-h5-weight` | `tracking-h5` | `leading-h5` |
    | Caption H6 (rare smallest heading) | `text-h6` | `font-h6-weight` | `tracking-h6` | `leading-h6` |
    | Body base (paragraphs ≥80 chars) | `text-body-base` | `font-body-weight` | `tracking-body` | `leading-body` |
    | Body small (short paragraphs, captions, meta strips) | `text-body-sm` | `font-body-weight` | `tracking-body-sm` | `leading-body-sm` |
    | Eyebrow / kicker (uppercase tracking-widest small caps above H1/H2) | `text-caption` | `font-caption-weight` | `tracking-caption` | `leading-caption` |
    | Button label | `text-button` | `font-button-weight` | `tracking-button` | `leading-button` |
    | Nav link / tag / pill text | `text-label` | `font-label-weight` | `tracking-label` | `leading-label` |

    Note for builder subagents: bake these utilities into the JSX directly. Variety in size across a page comes from picking the right hierarchy role per section, not from inventing arbitrary `clamp()` values.

15. **Site chrome from pattern.** The navbar and footer MUST be built from the layout role doc's Navigation Pattern (section 18) and Footer Pattern (section 19), populated with URLs from `spec.variables.navigation`. The builder does NOT improvise nav/footer chrome from page types or invent a generic agency layout. Read both sections in full, capture every checklist field, and translate each into JSX:

    - **Navbar contract:** type, position, sticky behavior, hamburger threshold, brand-mark position and variant, link style, dropdown / mega-menu pattern, active-state treatment, background, container width, CTA presence, search affordance, scroll-triggered transforms, mobile drawer behavior.
    - **Footer contract:** column count and composition, background, brand-mark presence, link grouping logic, newsletter form presence, social icons, big wordmark band, legal row, container width, padding density, decorative shapes.

    If either section is missing from the layout role doc, halt with the message `layout role doc lacks section 18 (Navigation Pattern) or section 19 (Footer Pattern). Re-run scraper-v2 to back-fill.` Do not improvise around the gap.

    In preserve-and-add mode the navbar + footer rule from the existing intake table still applies: skip if the file already exists. Otherwise build from pattern + spec URLs.

Every class name resolves to a brand token. No hardcoded values.

## Execution order

**Subagent rules.** Multiple `Agent` calls in ONE message run in parallel. One `Agent` call per message runs sequentially. To parallelize, ALL `Agent` invocations for a group MUST appear in the same response. Use `subagent_type: general-purpose` (the only type that can write). `researcher` is read-only and the wrong fit.

1. **Probe** the cwd. Decide fresh-write vs existing-site.
2. **Q&A intake** if existing site and no mode in brief. Wait for the answer.
3. **Read inputs.** Brand files, layout role doc, architect spec. Abort if any are missing or if the spec carries v1 fields. Additionally, if the layout role doc exists but lacks a `## Navigation Pattern` heading OR a `## Footer Pattern` heading, halt with: `Layout role doc lacks section 18 (Navigation Pattern) or section 19 (Footer Pattern). Re-run scraper-v2 to back-fill, or hand-author the sections.` This signals a pre-v2-chrome scrape that needs re-running; do not improvise around the gap.
4. **Parse the layout role doc.** Extract `## Page Type Inventory` slugs. Extract every `### <slug>` block under `## Zone Inventories`. Hold them in memory as a lookup table.
5. **Parse the spec.** Extract pages, sections, navigation, bans.
6. **Tier selection.** Tier selection is performed in Step 7's pre-pass; do not run selection in main context.
7. **Tiered-selection pre-pass.** Before spawning Group B, run a tier-selection pre-pass: spawn one short-lived `subagent_type: general-purpose` per spec page IN A SINGLE MESSAGE to make its tiered semantic judgment (Tier 1 page_type pick with rationale, or Tier 2 zone mix with per-section sourcing). Each subagent returns ONLY the selection + rationale + audit metadata (no JSX). The main context absorbs N small selection reports, then spawns Group B with each subagent already knowing its tier. This keeps the main context out of the JSX details entirely. Each pre-pass subagent additionally returns, for each section of its page, a fingerprint: `(composition_type, section.name, normalized_intent)`. Normalized intent strips leading verbs and punctuation; `Hero` plus `state evolved positioning in one breath` becomes `hero|Hero|state-evolved-positioning`. The fingerprint is the unit of pattern-repeat detection downstream.
8. **Shared-component identification.** After the pre-pass returns N selection reports, the main agent counts fingerprints across all pages. Any fingerprint appearing 3 or more times is a shared-component candidate. For each candidate, derive a kebab-case component slug from the section.name (e.g. `Pillar hero` becomes `pillar-hero`; `What it is` becomes `what-it-is`; `Used in this project` becomes `used-in-this-project`). Build a `shared_components_catalog` mapping fingerprint to component slug plus file path (`app/_components/<slug>-section.tsx`). The catalog is passed to both Group A (to create) and Group B (to import). The 3-or-more threshold is a hard rule, not a hint. A pattern that repeats twice may stay inlined; a pattern that repeats three or more times MUST extract.
9. **Group A: foundation + shared components (no per-page deps).** Spawn Group A subagents in parallel, all in a SINGLE message (multiple `Agent` calls in one response = parallel; one call per message = sequential). Group A now covers BOTH the foundation files AND every entry in the `shared_components_catalog`. Foundation subagents: one for `app/globals.css`, one for `tailwind.config.*`, one for `app/layout.tsx`, one for `components/Navbar.tsx`, one for `components/Footer.tsx`, one for `components/ui/Button.tsx`, one for `app/_components/Placeholder.tsx`. Shared-component subagents: one per catalog entry, writing to `app/_components/<slug>-section.tsx`. All subagents (`subagent_type: general-purpose`) write exactly one file. Brand tokens, layout role doc rules, and `spec.variables.navigation` (when present) are passed to foundation subagents. The Navbar subagent additionally receives the full Navigation Pattern (section 18) verbatim; the Footer subagent additionally receives the full Footer Pattern (section 19) verbatim. Both subagents must translate every applicable checklist field into JSX per rule #15. Each shared-component subagent receives the fingerprint (composition_type plus section.name plus normalized intent) and the matched zone treatment from the layout role doc; it renders the GENERIC version of the pattern, taking no spec-page-specific props. The component will be imported and reused by Group B route subagents. Subagents in Group A do not depend on each other. In preserve-and-add mode, skip the subagent for any file already wired per the apply rules in `## Re-run intake`.
10. **Group B: per-page rendering (one subagent per spec page).** After Group A completes, spawn one `subagent_type: general-purpose` per `spec.pages[]` entry, ALL in a single message. Each subagent gets: its page's spec entry, its tiered-selection result (page_type or zone mix) plus rationale, the relevant zone inventory or pool subset, the `shared_components_catalog`, the layout role doc's brand-level sections (Density Philosophy, Vertical Rhythm, Grid System, Content Width Strategy, Container & Card Rules, Dividers & Graphic Structure, Image Treatment, CTA Strategy, Responsive Behavior, Bans), the `spec.bans` list, and the page's `constraints`. Each subagent emits the per-route comment block at the top of its file and writes `app/<slug>/page.tsx` (and any per-bespoke component the page needs under `app/_components/`). **Group B subagents MUST import from the shared catalog.** Each Group B subagent computes its sections' fingerprints using the same normalization rule defined in Step 7 (composition_type + section.name + normalized intent, where normalized intent strips leading verbs and punctuation), then looks up the matching shared component in the catalog. For every section in its spec page, if the section's fingerprint matches a catalog entry, the subagent imports that shared component from `app/_components/` and uses it in the route's JSX. The subagent does NOT inline the pattern. Inlining a pattern present in the catalog is a build-quality failure. Sections that have NO catalog entry (fingerprints appearing 1 or 2 times across the spec) are inlined as before. Subagents in Group B do not depend on each other. In preserve-and-add mode, skip the subagent for any route that already exists.
11. **Synthesizer.** After both groups complete, the main agent assembles the contract audit (width-tier usage across pages, shape asset count, image count matches, rationale softening-word scan, shared-component reuse, token utilization including accent, typography, and site-chrome compliance) from each subagent's report block, then writes the final report.
12. **Report.** Surface mode, per-page tier + rationale, tier summary counts, halted pages, skipped routes, and any deferred items the spec listed.

## Final report shape

```
**Mode:** <fresh-write | preserve-and-add | rebuild>

**Per-page selection:**
- home: Tier 1 -> matched home
  rationale: exact match
- services-pillar: Tier 1 -> matched services
  rationale: shared zone vocabulary (hero, offering grid, contact CTA)
- workshops-chameleon: Tier 2 (mixed zones)
    - section "Hero (context-aware)" -> home/hero (closest hero shape in pool)
    - section "What we offer" -> services/grid (canonical offering grid)
    - section "How a workshop works" -> about/content-block (process narrative shape)
    - section "Who it's for" -> services/grid (audience-segment grid)
    - section "Booking CTA" -> contact/cta (only cta zone available)
- case-detail: halted -> no zone coverage in brand at all

**Tier summary:**
- Tier 1: <n>
- Tier 2: <n>
- Halted: <n>

**Contract audit:**
- Width tiers per page: list the distinct `max-w-container-*` tiers used per rendered page. Flag any page that used only one tier across multiple sections.
- Shape asset usage: count inline SVG or `<img>` references to `.appostle/brand/assets/shape/*.svg` across the build. Flag the build if the brand has shape assets in `shapes.md` but the count is zero.
- Image count per rendered page: for each Tier 1 and Tier 2 page, confirm the rendered `<Placeholder>` count per section matches the inventory's specification (Tier 1: matched page_type's inventory; Tier 2: per-section picked zones). Note any deviation with a reason.
- Tier 1 rationale quality: scan every Tier 1 rationale for the softening words "similar", "comparable", "close enough", or "same role/audience/shape". Flag each hit for re-classification to Tier 2.
- Shared-component reuse: list the `app/_components/` entries that were extracted, their fingerprint, and the count of routes that import each. If any inlined fingerprint appears 3+ times across the build (which would indicate the aggregation step missed something or a Group B subagent ignored the catalog), flag it.
- Token utilization: for each declared color/gradient token in `colors.md` outside the structural set (`bg-*`, `fg-*`, `border-*`, `status-*`):
  1. Grep `app/**/page.tsx` and `app/_components/*.tsx` for class names referencing the token (`text-accent-base`, `text-accent-on-dark`, `bg-accent-base`, `bg-accent-on-dark`, `border-accent-base`, `decoration-accent-base`, `decoration-accent-on-dark`, `ring-accent-base`, `from-accent-*`, `to-accent-*`, etc.) and inline `style={{ ... var(--accent-...) ... }}` patterns.
  2. Exclude matches inside JSX scope that also contains `blur-3xl` (decorative blur circles).
  3. Count non-decorative usages.
  4. Flag any declared token with zero non-decorative usages. `accent-on-dark` MUST show non-decorative usages whenever the build renders any dark-background section that carries accent text (eyebrows, links, active rows). Zero `accent-on-dark` usages combined with any dark-section accent foreground means the builder fell back to `accent-base` and broke the contrast contract.
  5. Flag any page-family (home, work, services, products, about, contact, legal) with zero accent foreground surfaces.
  6. Flag any `text-accent-base` (or `text-accent-hover` / `text-accent-active`) used on a JSX element whose nearest container carries `bg-inverted`, `bg-black`, or any other dark-surface utility. Those occurrences must be `text-accent-on-dark`.

  **Typography sub-check** (part of the Token utilization audit):

  1. Grep `app/**/page.tsx` and `app/_components/*.tsx` for `text-[clamp(`, `text-[<size>`, `font-medium`, `font-bold`, `font-semibold`, `leading-tight`, `leading-relaxed`, `tracking-tight`, `tracking-wide`. These are the arbitrary / non-token classes the builder must NOT use as primary typography choices.
  2. For each match, flag if the JSX element is an `h1`, `h2`, `h3`, `h4`, `h5`, `h6`, `p`, `span` with substantial text. That element should be using a token class (`text-h1`, etc.).
  3. Inverse check: confirm every declared `text-h*` / `font-h*-weight` / `leading-h*` / `tracking-h*` token gets used at least once in the build. Zero-usage tokens get flagged the same way zero-usage accent tokens do.

  **Site chrome compliance sub-check** (part of the Token utilization audit):

  1. Read `components/Navbar.tsx` and `components/Footer.tsx`.
  2. Verify the navbar implements every applicable checklist field from the layout role doc's Navigation Pattern (section 18). Flag any field that lacks a JSX implementation (e.g. "sticky behavior: hide-on-scroll-down" specified but the navbar has no scroll listener).
  3. Verify the footer implements every applicable field from the layout role doc's Footer Pattern (section 19). Flag any missing field.
  4. If `spec.variables.navigation` carries URLs that do not appear in the navbar OR footer JSX, flag.
  5. If the navbar / footer JSX carries URLs NOT in `spec.variables.navigation`, flag. Improvisation is not allowed.

  Report: list declared non-structural color/gradient tokens and their non-decorative usage counts, plus declared typography tokens (`text-h*`, `font-h*-weight`, `leading-h*`, `tracking-h*`, body / caption / button / label variants) and their usage counts. Flag any zero-usage tokens, any dark-surface accent text not using `accent-on-dark`, any page-family with zero accent foreground surfaces, any heading / paragraph element using arbitrary `text-[clamp(...)]` / `font-medium` / `leading-tight` / `tracking-*` classes instead of the declared hierarchy token, and any chrome-compliance gaps (missing pattern fields in navbar or footer, URL mismatches in either direction).

**Skipped (already present, preserve-and-add):**
- app/about/page.tsx
- ...

**Deferred from spec:**
- <verbatim deferred items>

**Next:** copy-reconciler to fill lorem markers; animator to wire motion hooks; photography role to swap placeholders.

**Audit checks parallelize.** The six contract-audit checks (width tier usage, shape asset count, image count match, rationale softening-word scan, shared-component reuse, token utilization including accent, typography, and site-chrome compliance sub-checks) are independent grep-style passes over the build output. Spawn 6 `subagent_type: general-purpose` calls in a single message, one per check; each returns its findings. Main agent merges the 6 returns into the final report block. The typography and site-chrome compliance sub-checks are folded into the token-utilization subagent (still 6 total, not 7).

End of role.
