-| **ArkRules** (optional extra) | Habits *inside* a layer + named policies | `arkRules` + `arkrules/<Layer>.json` | Structure **heuristics** (module shape); invariant **catalog + coverage evidence** (not full business proof) |
-| **ArkRun** (optional extra) | Kernel usage + complete declarations | `arkRun` on schema `1.2` | Only `mode: "enforced"` when the tree is classified. Absence is silent. Doctor `arkRun` is **not a score**. |

+| **ArkGate** (layers) | Import rules. The write doesn’t land. The PR fails. | Always — this is the product |
+| **ArkRules** | Optional policies *inside* a layer. | Off until you turn it on (start may ship advisory templates) |
+| **ArkRun** | Optional experimental runtime | Off. In-memory. Not Postgres. |
 
-Start always gives you **layers**. ArkRules templates may ship with start/init; they begin **advisory** until you promote them. Compact starters do **not** turn on ArkRun — add it only if the project uses `@arkgate/runtime`. Doctor / HTML show `rulesUnderContract` (catalog, **not a score**). No `arkRules` / `arkRun` map is fine — only Layers run. In-memory kernel stores are **not** production durability.

-**Do not confuse:** green Layers ≠ perfect design (Shape residual can remain). Covered invariants ≠ “the business always does the right thing” — they mean the named policy is declared and has symbol/test evidence. ArkRun branding ≠ durable stores.
+Start always gives you **layers**. Compact starters do **not** turn on ArkRun.
+No ArkRules / ArkRun is fine — only ArkGate runs. Leftovers are labeled
