A `foreign` tree that is also dirty reports `foreign`, since `dirty` is a state the operator can clear and `foreign` is not. Leading with the transient reason invites a commit or stash that changes nothing, after which the row reports `foreign` and holds back anyway.

+### Seams
+
 - Past roughly 40 rendered lines with no heading of any level breaking them, add a subheading at the seam. Measure the longest such run rather than everything under one `##`, and exclude fenced code blocks. The number is a checkpoint, not a cap.
 - Count rendered lines rather than source lines, wrapping each source line at 80 columns and summing the heights. Source lines undercount a file authored one line per bullet, where a block of fifteen paragraph-bullets occupies fifteen lines and renders past sixty. A checkpoint another standard states counts the same unit, so a file measured one way never sits beside a run measured another.
 - Keep a whole document at or under 300 rendered lines, counted over the full source with frontmatter and fenced blocks included, since a session pays for every line it loads. This one is a ceiling rather than a checkpoint. `canon markdown audit` lists every document past it without failing the run, and a gate stage reads the same number, so whether a push fails on it is the project's gate to decide. Split the document at a seam rather than compressing it.
 - Exempt a file named `CHANGELOG.md`, which a release tool rewrites, and a document carrying `<!-- canon-length-exempt: <reason> -->` on a line of its own outside a fenced block. A marker naming no reason exempts nothing.
-- Exempt a block whose lines are all list items at one level averaging under roughly 130 characters.

+- Exempt a block whose lines are all list items at one level averaging under roughly 130 characters. A flat list of short peers is already navigable, and a subheading dropped into it splits a set that belongs together. Bullet count says nothing on its own to this checkpoint, which measures depth. The cap on a run of bullets is a separate rule under Paragraphs and lists. A catalog of one-liners and a stack of paragraphs reach the same count and read nothing alike, so weight is what decides.
 - Mixing prose with that list, or nesting levels inside it, ends the exemption at any weight.
 - Exempt a block whose lines are all table rows, at any length. The peer list above is exempt because it is already navigable, and a table because the remedy does not exist: a subheading dropped inside one splits the table rather than the run, so no edit short of rewriting it as a list clears the checkpoint.
 - Prose either side of the table ends that exemption, since the block has a seam and a heading breaks it there.
+
+### Bold section markers
+
 - Break a run on a bold section marker holding its line alone, the way a heading breaks one. A document whose template separates sections with `**Risks:**` rather than `## Risks` has written the seam a reader lands on, and reading only the heading reported every such file at its full length whatever it carried.
 - Require the marker to start at column zero and to be the whole line. `**Risks:**` breaks a run, a bold phrase opening a sentence stays emphasis, and an indented one stays a label inside its list item.
 - Break a colon-less marker on either of two signals, since no one test separates every marker from a sentence set in bold. A label that is one whole code span breaks at any width, which is how a bold line holding only a backticked path reads as the file heading it is. Anything else breaks at 20 characters or fewer, which reaches `**Testing**` and leaves a bold sentence as prose.

A bullet a branch adds or grows past it fails the push in a context entry through the `paragraph-growth` gate stage, and an unchanged one passes until edited. Elsewhere it is the audit's warning and no more. The number is a checkpoint rather than a cap, and a bullet reading well past it means the number is wrong rather than the rule.
+- Keep a run of consecutive top-level bullets to 5 or fewer under one heading, and fold a longer one into prose, an H3 per item, or a split at the seam. A blank line, a continuation, and a nested item do not break the run, and a paragraph or heading does. The audit reports a longer run and the `bullet-stacks` gate stage fails it.
+- Leave a run whose every item opens with a bold label or a link as it is, since each item names its own subject. A task box (`[ ]`) is not a link, so a checklist counts as plain bullets. Numbered items do not count toward the cap. Governance rules and `REQUIREMENT.md` sit outside it, since a rule is one imperative per bullet.
 - Collapse a stack of bullets narrating one subsystem into a single `###` subsection carrying one narrative.

@@ -52,10 +52,16 @@ What this skill adds on top of the standard:
 - Reframe a vague ask as success criteria before writing `**Files to touch:**`. Each criterion names something observable and a check that decides it, such as a measure and the threshold it must stay under, drawn from the ask or the project context. "Make it faster" names no criterion, while a stated budget for one path does. Each criterion becomes one `**Verification:**` bullet.
 - Confirm a concrete project or use case drives the feature before shaping it, and lift patterns from that project where precedent exists. A feature with no named user is a guess about what one will want.
 - Prefer one layout that serves both a new and a grown project over a dual-mode toggle or a migration shim. Two modes double what every later change has to hold.
+
+### Suggestions and sections
+
 - Apply senior judgment to every `- Suggested:` line. Pick the best option and state it in one line with its reason or main tradeoff. No padding, no alternatives unless they change the pick.
 - Suggest a real default when best practice, the codebase, or prior context points to one.
 - Load the `canon:codebase-layout` skill before writing the `**Files to touch:**` entries when any of them names a file or folder that does not exist yet, and give each new path its placement reason in its entry. Skip the load when every entry edits an existing file. Report it rather than proceeding silently when the skill does not resolve.
 - Write `**Verification:**` as one bullet per outcome naming the test or command that proves it, and `**Review focus:**` as the inputs or states that would break the change. You understood the risk before any diff existed, and these two sections carry it to the executing session and to the reviewer.
+
+### Sources and size
+
 - Cite the `**Sources:**` entry for every decision Step 2 sourced, each with its quoted passage or the word `unverified`.
 - Prefer `None identified.` over low-signal fillers. A small feature should produce a short plan, not a padded one.
 - When three or more questions remain, keep chat output to the file pointer plus a short summary. Inline chat is fine when two or fewer remain.

 - One batch is one pull request, and one pull request is one plan file, named for its own concern rather than a numeric suffix. `canon tasks plan-branch` derives one branch from one plan filename, so a `**Batch N**` sub-heading inside one file's `**Files to touch:**` shares that one branch across every batch, and the batch that merges first strands every batch behind it with nothing left to open a pull request against. Write a plan opening five batches as five files before the first line of any of them.
 - State a dependent batch's dependency on the ones before it in its own `**Constraints:**`, naming the earlier batch's slug and stacking rather than merging into it. A batch that builds after another and shares most of its files with it folds into that batch as contiguous commits on one branch, since each pull request pays a fixed cost a same-file slice cannot earn back, and the rebases between stacked slices land on the same files. Keep a batch apart only where a reviewer or the operator would judge it apart: a contract a later batch is built against, a taste call the operator judges in its own sitting, or a fold that would exceed one review. Write that reason as ``Judged apart from `feature-<parent>`: <reason>`` in the batch's `**Constraints:**`. `canon records validate plans` reports a stacked batch that should have folded, and its thresholds live there.
 - Mark each batch dependent or independent by comparing the file sets rather than the descriptions. A batch sharing no file with another is independent and earns its own branch even where both arrived in one request. One run measured at 68 files carried three such batches into a single review because nothing drew the boundary.
+
+### Slicing and sequence
+
 - Slice a batch by one user-visible path end to end rather than by layer, so each batch ships something a person can exercise. The slice decides what a batch contains, and the file-set comparison above still decides whether two batches depend on each other, so two slices sharing a file stay marked dependent. A path too thin to pay a pull request of its own folds forward into the next.
 - Sequence the riskiest batch first, so the batch most likely to change the plan is built while every later batch can still move. A sweep is the one exception and stays last even when it is the riskiest, per the next bullet.
 - Sequence a sweep last. A batch deliberately rewriting files earlier batches touched is coherent as the final one and forces every batch behind it into one review anywhere else.

 - Give every `**Files to touch:**` entry a backticked path and something said about it. A bare path states scope and not intent, and the reason is what an executing session checks its edit against. Lead with the path or lead with a label carrying the path, whichever reads better for the entry.

 - What a spike produces stays inside the track rather than joining the two exceptions above: write evidence a spike file cites under `.canon/groundwork/<nn>-<slug>/evidence/`, which the first rule already permits. Mode detection matches entries at the top level of the tracks directory, so the sibling the fixtures rule guards against cannot be a folder nested inside a track, and the scratch path holds only what can be deleted without loss, which a recording a finding rests on is not.
 - A `draft-and-pick` run invoked from inside a live track follows its own branch for this. It writes its renders to `evidence/` here, and drafts its candidates as canvas pages under `.canon/canvas/` that its close deletes.

Invoke `canon:search-craft` with the skill tool before an outside search, and report it rather than proceeding silently when the skill does not resolve.
 - Every claim about a source outside the project carries a link to it. A source found and not read is listed as a lead and is never cited.
 - Treat the folder as gitignored, and backed only where a records remote is configured: `canon records push` and `canon records pull` protect it against the machine being lost there and refuse with `no-remote` otherwise, and neither protects against a compaction dropping this session's own reasoning before anyone has pushed, so `07-next-session.md` repeats what it needs instead of pointing at its siblings.

 - Do not spawn a worker with the Agent tool. An in-process subagent shares this session's context and cannot be steered or reached independently, which breaks the property this boundary protects rather than the mechanism it names. The launch in `orchestrator-launch.md` is a separate `claude --bg` process with its own worktree and its own PR, so it preserves that property instead.
 - Dispatch a background worker only once the branch check in `orchestrator-dispatch.md` clears and its conflict check holds the row behind no track in flight. Colliding with an existing worktree or session is what the branch check exists to catch rather than a judgment call this session makes case by case, and a shared file alone is not a hold. No fixed count binds how many tracks run at once, and Parallelism below states what does.
 - Do not edit tracked files from this session, at any size. The boundary offers no proportionality exception and nothing enforces it.
