gates / gates (push) Successful in 6m30s
Part 0 and Part A of the home-page redesign. Nothing under website/ is touched.
skills/
- design-taste-frontend installed to ~/.claude/skills/ as a VERBATIM copy of
github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill @ 717446e07a (2026-10-09, MIT). Body verified
byte-identical line by line; the only addition is a provenance block. The repo
holds scripts (skill.sh, scripts/*.mjs) but the SKILL FOLDER holds only SKILL.md,
so no script was copied and none was run. Not installed via npx or skill.sh.
- skills/felhom-web-design/SKILL.md is the override layer and names every conflict:
the static-HTML stack fence (no React/Tailwind/Motion/npm), nothing fetched from
another server (kills taste-skill's picsum/Unsplash/SimpleIcons ladder and its
npm icon libraries, since we have a self-hosted sprite), real images only, the
Hungarian gondolatjel surviving the en-dash ban, the claim rule, and the SEO-keep
list. 137 lines, check_skills.py PASS.
- SOURCES.md records the provenance and the kept/overridden table.
documentation/audits/redesign-2026-10-10/AUDIT.md
Measured against the LIVE site, not the file. 12 patterns to retire (R1-R12), each
naming the taste-skill rule it breaks; 7 to keep; dial reading 3/2/4 -> 6/3/4;
8 levers in priority order for the operator to approve at STOP 1.
Headline measurements: 10 922 px tall at 1440 and 19 913 px at 390 (23.6 phone
screens); 11 sections but only 8 layout families, why-grid used 3x and
apps-showcase 2x; 18 em dashes; 16 requests / 533 KB from exactly two hosts.
Contrast measures 7.56:1 body and 16.67:1 headings - AAA, and an accessibility win
to preserve rather than a thing to fix.
Method note: resize_window does not move window.innerWidth on this workstation and
DevTools device mode could not be driven, so the page was rendered in a same-origin
iframe at each width. Faithful, with two positive observables: the hamburger
computes to display:block at 390, and clientWidth == scrollWidth == 375.
Gates: site, hostinstall, hub-confirm, register and the rest green. instructions and
script-tests fail on this Windows workstation for environment reasons that predate
this change (E:\git\CLAUDE.md is the deliberate Windows adaptation the gate wants
identical; fcntl missing; relpath across C:/E:; the cp1250 console trap). Re-run on
DooPlex follows.

# Where the Felhom skills came from
|
||
|
||
The four **product-domain** skills — `felhom-app-catalog`, `felhom-build-deploy`, `felhom-testing`,
|
||
`felhom-ui-design` — are original, written from this project's own measured failures.
|
||
`felhom-web-design` (2026-10-10) is original too, but exists only to **override** a vendored skill;
|
||
see its own section below.
|
||
|
||
The five **process-domain** skills added 2026-08-25 are **adaptations, not copies**, of material from
|
||
two public MIT-licensed collections:
|
||
|
||
- **`mattpocock/skills`** — MIT.
|
||
- **`backnotprop/pstack`** — MIT.
|
||
|
||
Neither repo is installed, vendored, or depended on. Nothing was copied verbatim. Each skill was
|
||
rewritten in Felhom's own terms, in the house frontmatter shape taken from
|
||
`skills/felhom-testing/SKILL.md`, and every rule that already had a home elsewhere in this workspace
|
||
points at that home instead of restating it.
|
||
|
||
| Skill | Derives from |
|
||
|---|---|
|
||
| `felhom-evidence` | the confidence-grading and verify-the-artifact material in both collections, merged with this workspace's own standing rules 2 and 3 (`documentation/runbooks/workspace-CLAUDE.md`) |
|
||
| `felhom-diagnosis` | the loop-first debugging material in both collections |
|
||
| `felhom-plain-language` | the half of the writing guidance that cuts empty and promotional words; the ASD-STE100 rule and the two-option decision format are Felhom's own |
|
||
| `felhom-handoff` | the session pause/resume material in `backnotprop/pstack` |
|
||
| `felhom-doc-authoring` | the instruction-authoring material in both collections |
|
||
|
||
## Deliberately excluded — a decision, not an oversight
|
||
|
||
Recorded here so a future session that finds the upstream repos can see these were weighed.
|
||
|
||
1. **"Stop asking and proceed on reversible work."** It reasons from *code is cheap and revertible*.
|
||
Felhom's work reaches live hosts and one real customer's data, where that premise is false, and it
|
||
contradicts the standing rule that decisions go to the operator as ranked options.
|
||
2. **"Add voice, vary rhythm, let some mess in."** The direct opposite of the ASD-STE100 rule that
|
||
`felhom-plain-language` exists to carry. The empty-word-cutting half of that same upstream
|
||
material was kept.
|
||
3. **A router or "mode" skill that picks a playbook and owns the session.** It takes over the
|
||
process, and would fight the `TASK-*.md` / `RUNBOOK-*.md` workflow already in use.
|
||
4. **Ticket, triage, spec-publishing and issue-tracker skills.**
|
||
`documentation/backlog/OPEN-ITEMS.md` is the single source of truth for open work; a skill that
|
||
writes work items anywhere else creates a second one.
|
||
5. **A codebase-architecture-survey skill.** It hands back a list of things it judges wrong without
|
||
knowing which were chosen deliberately, and this project has already paid four times for a
|
||
deliberate design being reported as a defect.
|
||
6. **Everything naming a tool this project does not use** — Cursor commands and transcript paths,
|
||
model names, Linear / Sentry / Notion / Slack sources, GitHub issue trackers.
|
||

## `design-taste-frontend` (taste-skill) — vendored verbatim, 2026-10-10
|
||
|
||
The one skill in this workspace that is a **copy, not an adaptation**.
|
||
|
||
- **Source:** <https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill>, file `skills/taste-skill/SKILL.md`
|
||
(the repo's default skill; its own frontmatter name is `design-taste-frontend`).
|
||
- **Commit:** `717446e07a78d4e6d7918b1fde1a263378eebac9`, dated 2026-10-09. Pinned deliberately —
|
||
re-read the diff before moving to a newer commit.
|
||
- **Licence:** MIT, Copyright (c) 2026 Leonxlnx. `LICENSE` is copied alongside the skill.
|
||
- **Installed to:** `~/.claude/skills/design-taste-frontend/` on the Windows workstation. It is a
|
||
**plain copy**, not a junction into this repo, because this repo is not its home.
|
||
- **How it was taken:** `git clone` into a scratch folder outside the repo, then one file copied by
|
||
hand. The repo's `npx` path and its `skill.sh` installer were **not** used.
|
||
- **What was NOT copied:** the repo holds helper scripts (`skill.sh`, `scripts/*.mjs`) and nine other
|
||
skill variants. The skill folder itself holds **only `SKILL.md`** — no script was copied and none
|
||
was run. The other nine skills, the `research/` folder and all marketing assets were left behind.
|
||
- **Modification:** the body is **byte-identical to upstream** (verified line by line). The only
|
||
addition is a provenance block: one YAML comment inside the frontmatter and a seven-line
|
||
blockquote directly under it. The frontmatter still opens on line 1, because a provenance line
|
||
placed above `---` would stop the skill loading at all.
|
||
|
||
### What was taken, and what was overridden
|
||
|
||
`skills/felhom-web-design/SKILL.md` is the override layer and names every conflict. In short:
|
||
|
||
| Kept in full | Overridden |
|
||
|---|---|
|
||
| §0 design read; §1 the three dials | §3.A the whole React/Next/Tailwind/Motion stack — this site is static HTML with no build step |
|
||
| §4.7 layout discipline, §4.3 anti-centre bias, §9.C no three equal cards | §3.C npm icon libraries — the site has a self-hosted `icons.svg` sprite |
|
||
| §4.9 content density and the copy self-audit | §4.8's asset ladder (image-gen, picsum, Unsplash, Simple Icons CDN) — **real images only, nothing from another server** |
|
||
| §9 the AI tells, including the em-dash ban | §9.G's **en-dash** half — in Hungarian the gondolatjel is ` – ` |
|
||
| §11.B audit-first, §11.D the lever order, §11.F what never changes silently | §4.10's `"…"` quotes — Hungarian uses `„…"` |
|
||
| §14 the pre-flight check, run in writing | §6.C dual light/dark — the site is one locked dark theme by brand decision |
|
||
| §4.8's ban on div-built fake screenshots (we agree, and go further) | §4.1's font advice — Plus Jakarta Sans is the brand and stays |
|
||
|
||
### Why vendored rather than adapted
|
||
|
||
The five process-domain skills above were rewritten in Felhom's terms because their value was the
|
||
*idea*. This one's value is the **specific list** — the named tells, the exact banned patterns, the
|
||
mechanical counts in §14. Paraphrasing it would lose precisely what makes it useful, and the MIT
|
||
licence permits the copy. The Felhom-specific half therefore lives in a separate file that says
|
||
which rule wins, instead of being merged in.
