+## [1.15.0] — 2026-04-24
+
+### Added — Design Knowledge Expansion: 10 foundational references + MIFB micro-polish + UUPM ingest
+
+This release closes the plugin's shallow-coverage gaps across iconography, performance, brand voice, visual hierarchy, Gestalt principles, design-system governance, and adds two new UUPM-sourced knowledge bases (palette catalog + style vocabulary). It also lands the complete MIT-licensed MIFB (make-interfaces-feel-better) micro-polish track.
+
+#### Impeccable removal
+
+All `impeccable-*` skill coupling removed from the plugin. References in `reference/checklists.md` and `reference/review-format.md` replaced with native GDD equivalents (`DESIGN-CONTEXT.md`, `/gdd:fast`, `design:design-critique`). Salvage archive at `.planning/research/impeccable-salvage/` for Phase 16.
+
+#### 10 new foundational reference files
+
+- **`reference/iconography.md`** — Optical sizing, stroke-weight rules, metaphor taxonomy (functional/status/nav/brand), dark-mode variants, icon animation guidelines, semantic vs. decorative labeling, touch-target pairing, catalog of 9 public icon libraries (Lucide, Phosphor, Heroicons, Radix Icons, Tabler, Iconoir, Remix, SF Symbols, Feather). Metaphor taxonomy absorbs UUPM `icons.csv` (MIT).
+- **`reference/performance.md`** — Core Web Vitals targets by project type (SaaS/marketing/e-commerce/docs/dashboards), LCP/INP/CLS/TTFB budgets, critical CSS, image budgets, animation frame budget (16.67ms), JS bundle budgets (<170KB gzipped), font budgets, Lighthouse CI hookup. React runtime section absorbs UUPM `react-performance.csv` (MIT).
+- **`reference/design-systems-catalog.md`** — Quick-reference index of 18 major design systems: Material 3, Apple HIG, Radix+WAI-ARIA, shadcn/ui, Polaris, Carbon, Fluent 2, Primer, Atlassian, Ant Design, Mantine, Chakra, Base Web, Nord, Spectrum, Lightning, Evergreen, Gestalt (Pinterest).
+- **`reference/brand-voice.md`** — 5 voice axes (Formal↔Casual, Serious↔Playful, Expert↔Approachable, Reverent↔Irreverent, Authoritative↔Collaborative), 12 Jungian archetypes + 6 design-register variants, tone-by-context table (8 contexts), 20+ industry-vertical context table. Industry-context absorbs UUPM `products.csv` + `ui-reasoning.csv` (MIT).
+- **`reference/visual-hierarchy-layout.md`** — Z-order/depth cues, whitespace principles, asymmetry/rhythm, compositional grids (4/8/12/16-col), figure-ground, reading-order patterns (F/Z/inverted-triangle), progressive disclosure. Landing-archetypes subsection absorbs UUPM `landing.csv` (24 patterns, MIT).
+- **`reference/gestalt.md`** — All 8 Gestalt principles (Proximity, Similarity, Continuity, Closure, Figure-Ground, Common Fate, Common Region, Prägnanz), each with definition, design application, scoring rubric, and CSS grep signatures. UUPM `ux-guidelines.csv` deduped across gestalt/heuristics/anti-patterns/priority-matrix (MIT).
+- **`reference/design-system-guidance.md`** — Token versioning/deprecation, multi-brand token architecture (base/semantic/component layers), platform translation (Style Dictionary/Tokens Studio/Terrazzo), governance/RFC model, documentation standard, maturity rubric levels 0–5.
+- **`reference/framer-motion-patterns.md`** — Spring vs. tween config, AnimatePresence (including `initial={false}` rule), layout animations, variants+staggering, gesture motion (`whileHover`, `whileTap` canonical 0.96), scroll-linked animations, `prefers-reduced-motion` compliance, 60fps GPU-safe property rules, MotionConfig, common pitfalls. UUPM `stacks/react.csv` framer rows absorbed (MIT).
+- **`reference/palette-catalog.md`** — 40+ industry-vertical color palettes with 12 semantic token roles each, all WCAG 4.5:1 body / 3:1 UI verified. Data sibling at `reference/data/palettes.csv`. UUPM `colors.csv` absorbed (MIT).
+- **`reference/style-vocabulary.md`** — 38+ named UI aesthetics (Glassmorphism, Brutalism, Neumorphism, Bento, Claymorphism, Aurora, AI-Native, Swiss Modernism 2.0, Vaporwave, Editorial Grid, HUD/Sci-Fi FUI, and more) with keywords, signature effects, best-for, avoid-for, era. Data sibling at `reference/data/styles.csv`. UUPM `styles.csv` absorbed (MIT).

+#### MIFB micro-polish track
+
+Source: [jakub.kr/writing/details-that-make-interfaces-feel-better](https://jakub.kr/writing/details-that-make-interfaces-feel-better) (MIT, Jakub Krehel)
+
+- **`reference/surfaces.md`** (new) — Concentric radius formula (`outerRadius = innerRadius + padding`), optical alignment offsets, 3-layer shadow system (exact `rgba` values), image outline rule (pure black/white opacity only), hit-area `::after` pseudo-element pattern.
+- **`reference/typography.md`** extended — `text-wrap: balance` (headings, ≤6 lines Chromium), `text-wrap: pretty` (body/captions), `-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased` at `:root` only, `font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums` for dynamic numerals. UUPM `typography.csv` (57 pairings) absorbed into expanded pairings catalog (MIT). `reference/data/google-fonts.csv` registered as data sibling.
+- **`reference/motion.md`** extended — 6 new subsections: interruptible animations (transitions vs. keyframes decision table), split-and-stagger enter/exit pattern, contextual icon cross-fade (canonical `scale 0.25→1`, `opacity 0→1`, `blur 4→0`, `bounce: 0`), scale-on-press canonical `0.96`, `<AnimatePresence initial={false}>` rule, `will-change` GPU-compositable property table.
+- **`reference/anti-patterns.md`** — 4 new BAN entries: BAN-10 same-radius-nested, BAN-11 tinted image outline, BAN-12 `transition: all`, BAN-13 `will-change: all`. Each with grep signature and fix pointer.
+- **`reference/checklists.md`** — New "Micro-polish check" gate (14 items across typography/surfaces/motion). `scale(0.97)` mention reconciled to canonical `0.96`.
+
+#### ⚠️ BREAKING — 7th audit pillar: Micro-polish (weight redistribution)
+
+A new **Micro-polish** pillar (5%) has been added to `reference/audit-scoring.md`. Weight was redistributed from the Anti-Pattern Compliance pillar (10% → 5%). **Total remains 100%, but per-pillar weights changed.** Cross-cycle score comparisons that mix v1.14.x and v1.15.0 audit reports should account for this weight shift.
+
+#### Mapper extensions
+
+All four mapper agents (`motion-mapper`, `token-mapper`, `visual-hierarchy-mapper`, `a11y-mapper`) gain "Micro-polish findings" output sections with grep-driven detection of BAN-10/11/12/13 and MIFB rule violations.
+
+#### Agent integrations
+
+- `design-context-builder` — reads `brand-voice.md` for archetype resolution, `palette-catalog.md` for palette proposal, `style-vocabulary.md` for style-direction picker.
+- `design-auditor` — reads `iconography.md`, `performance.md`, `gestalt.md`, `framer-motion-patterns.md`, `surfaces.md`; includes 7th pillar micro_polish in output schema.
+- `design-executor` — reads `brand-voice.md` (type:copy), `design-system-guidance.md` (type:tokens), `framer-motion-patterns.md` (type:motion), `performance.md` (type:layout).
+- `design-pattern-mapper` — extended with `iconography-system` and `brand-voice` categories.
+- `design-verifier` — micro_polish added as supplemental dimension.
+
+#### Attribution
+
+- Jakub Krehel (MIT) — micro-polish rules in typography.md, surfaces.md, motion.md, anti-patterns.md BAN-10/11/12/13, checklists.md Micro-polish gate.
+- nextlevelbuilder/ui-ux-pro-max-skill v2.5.0 (MIT) — data snapshot ingested into iconography, performance, brand-voice, visual-hierarchy-layout, typography, framer-motion-patterns, palette-catalog, style-vocabulary, gestalt/heuristics/anti-patterns/priority-matrix dedup. **One-shot snapshot — no live re-sync contract.**
+
+#### UUPM deferrals (explicitly routed, not discarded)
+
+- `charts.csv` → Phase 19 `reference/data-visualization.md`
+- `app-interface.csv` → Phase 17 component-corpus authoring
+- `stacks/*.csv` (14 non-React) → future stack-playbook phase

Look up that style name verbatim in `reference/style-vocabulary.md` — the Light/Dark column tells you whether dark mode is required, the Signature Effects column tells you what color techniques are canonical for the style, and the Avoid For column tells you whether this style is structurally mismatched to the product type. A palette that is internally consistent but inconsistent with the declared style (e.g., hard flat fills implemented for a Glassmorphism direction) is a style coherence defect and should reduce the score by 1 point.

+3. **Keyframe-driven interactive elements**

+4. **Missing AnimatePresence initial={false}**
+   - Grep: `<AnimatePresence(?![^>]*initial=\{false\})` — AnimatePresence without initial={false}
+   - Report: file:line; check if the wrapped component is persistent UI (not route-level transitions)
+
+5. **Icon cross-fade with wrong bounce**
+   - Grep: `bounce:\s*[^0]` inside framer-motion spring config near icon-related components
+   - Report: bounce must be 0 for icon animations; non-zero bounce creates invasive pop effect
