The exploration directory held 245 tracked files, and one week's
notebook had grown to 28M of captures, per-run CSS copies and model
logs, so every change ended with an argument about what to prune. It is
now a local lab notebook: git ignores it, its tracked files are
untracked, and no tracked file cites a path under it, because another
clone does not have it.
Every live citation is rewritten so the fact stands in the sentence:
the docs pages, AGENTS.md, four main specs, one Go comment, issues.md
and milestones.md. The operator IA page gains the landed IA revisions it
used to point at, and the UX rubric moves to docs/first-contact-rubric.md
because the process requires it. Archived changes, status/archive,
status/log and design/ keep their old paths as frozen history; the
design/ ones are logged as an upstream issue. MAINTAINING.md and the
status README describe the notebook and the harvest that replaces
pruning.
The Rules section is one record table grouped by kind, Limit then
Boolean, on fixed columns, edited in place: Edit opens a row's controls
in their columns, Add rule opens a dense row above the table, and every
change is staged into a tray that lists the deltas with Undo and applies
them as one rule-change act. The reduction policy is a column of the
rule beside its limit. History shows counts only. Group rows are a quiet
heading rather than a divider, the maintainer's pick from four rounds of
outside-model ideation.
Dense rows align to the top and render each error under its control in
every form family (design D16), replacing the below-row error block; the
forms library gains the batch form (rows plus one tray) and the RowField
dense and label-hidden options. Migration 00019 records the governing
reduction policy on effect rows.
Archive staged-rule-changes with its spec updates (entitlement-set-

Width becomes a one-rung step from the control's natural fraction,
and invariants bound the ladder. The grant's free text is renamed
to GrantNote, and both grant ledgers show it as a muted note line.
Every form on both surfaces is now a declared FormSpec in
internal/forms, rendered through the shared form part and parsed
by its handler through the same declaration. Create and edit
share one field list, refusals answer 422 with values carried
back, and layout, buttons and errors come from one part.
Also adds the form registry with its invariant and route-mapping
tests, the raw-form, filler-copy and Go em-dash lint rules,
declared action triggers, and the capture-coverage cross-check.
The forms-library change is archived under
openspec/changes/archive/2026-09-05-forms-library.
