-# THE CATALOG — one front-end, three engines behind
-
-This is the skill's single selection surface. **The user picks an IDENTITY from
-this table; everything else (engine, compiler, authoring file) is derived by
-lookup — never ask the user (or yourself) "Standard or Cinematic or Theme?"**
-Those are backend names; a product has one UX even when it has several engines.
-
-Routing procedure (replaces any mode decision):
-
-1. Probe the clip (decision gate + pre-flight probes as in SKILL.md).
-2. Shortlist 2–3 identities from this table by **content register + the user's
-   own words + scene constraints**.
-3. Recommend ONE with a one-line why; the user picks.
-4. Author the identity's file (last column), then render with its engine's
-   pipeline. Done — no category question ever surfaced.

-## Shortlisting heuristics (identity-level, not category-level)
-
-- **"每个词都要被读到 / accessibility / 教程·新闻"** → rail or panel surfaces:
-  `anchor`, `ordnance`, `terminal` (all verbatim by construction).
-- **"嵌进场景 / 电影感 / 高级"** → the column-flow ten; pick by register + scene luma
-  (bright → `ink`; warm dark → `cream`; fashion → `editorial`; …). Bright + must-read → `anchor`.
-- **"炸 / 特效 / 酷炫 / 像 AE"** → `ordnance`, `stomp`, `terminal`, `loud` — pick by
-  what should explode: a word (`ordnance`), the frame (`stomp`), a decode (`terminal`),
-  every beat (`loud`).
-- **Named worlds** → direct hits: 控制台/终端 → `terminal`; 霓虹/招牌 → `neonsign`;
-  诗/星尘/记忆 → `stardust`; 军事/重击 → `ordnance`; 预言/未来/悬念揭示 → `lastpage`;
-  赛博朋克/游戏封面/夜之城 → `nightcity`.
-- **Scene constraints veto last**: luma > 180 kills cream/screen column looks
-  (→ `ink` or a rail/panel surface); dusk/dark unlocks `neon`/`neonsign`.
-- **Unsure** → `anchor` (the conservative default: words read, scene safe, zero spectacle).
-  EXCEPTION: if the ask literally says "嵌进场景 / embed into the scene / 电影感", that signal
-  OUTRANKS the conservative default — go column-flow (pick by register + luma), not a rail.
-
-Adjacencies worth knowing (these pairs are why the old mode question was hard —
-recommend by the difference, don't agonize over category): `loud` vs `ordnance`
-(percussive type vs a themed world with plate reaction) · `neon` vs `neonsign`
-(neon-styled captions vs a sign being written) · `cream` vs `stardust` (warm
-embedded flow vs an accumulating poem with semantic dispersal) · `terminal` vs
-`glitch` (a console WORLD with typed log + decode vs corrupted-feed styling on
-normal captions) · `stomp` vs `loud` (every beat takes over the dead-center
-frame vs energetic type that still shares the frame with the subject).

-## Rules
-
-- Identities are **engine-locked** — no cross combos. Opening a new combo (e.g.
-  another DNA under rail) is a validation event: render → user review → flip the
-  DNA's `deliveries.rail` flag (see dna/README.md).
-- New identities join via their family's registry rules (dna/README.md for
-  classic, themes/README.md for themed — "any input, zero hand-fixing" bar).
-- The engines' internals (Standard/Cinematic/Theme compilers, gates, layers)
-  are documented in their own files; this catalog is the only routing surface.
+# THE CATALOG — one front-end, three engines behind
+
+This is the skill's single selection surface. **The user picks an IDENTITY from
+this table; everything else (engine, compiler, authoring file) is derived by
+lookup — never ask the user (or yourself) "Standard or Cinematic or Theme?"**
+Those are backend names; a product has one UX even when it has several engines.
+
+Routing procedure (replaces any mode decision):
+
+1. Probe the clip (decision gate + pre-flight probes as in SKILL.md).
+2. Shortlist 2–3 identities from this table by **content register + the user's
+   own words + scene constraints**.
+3. Recommend ONE with a one-line why; the user picks.
+4. Author the identity's file (last column), then render with its engine's
+   pipeline. Done — no category question ever surfaced.

+## Shortlisting heuristics (identity-level, not category-level)
+
+- **"每个词都要被读到 / accessibility / 教程·新闻"** → rail or panel surfaces:
+  `anchor`, `ordnance`, `terminal` (all verbatim by construction).
+- **"嵌进场景 / 电影感 / 高级"** → the column-flow ten; pick by register + scene luma
+  (bright → `ink`; warm dark → `cream`; fashion → `editorial`; …). Bright + must-read → `anchor`.
+- **"炸 / 特效 / 酷炫 / 像 AE"** → `ordnance`, `stomp`, `terminal`, `loud` — pick by
+  what should explode: a word (`ordnance`), the frame (`stomp`), a decode (`terminal`),
+  every beat (`loud`).
+- **Named worlds** → direct hits: 控制台/终端 → `terminal`; 霓虹/招牌 → `neonsign`;
+  诗/星尘/记忆 → `stardust`; 军事/重击 → `ordnance`; 预言/未来/悬念揭示 → `lastpage`;
+  赛博朋克/游戏封面/夜之城 → `nightcity`.
+- **Scene constraints veto last**: luma > 180 kills cream/screen column looks
+  (→ `ink` or a rail/panel surface); dusk/dark unlocks `neon`/`neonsign`.
+- **Unsure** → `anchor` (the conservative default: words read, scene safe, zero spectacle).
+  EXCEPTION: if the ask literally says "嵌进场景 / embed into the scene / 电影感", that signal
+  OUTRANKS the conservative default — go column-flow (pick by register + luma), not a rail.
+
+Adjacencies worth knowing (these pairs are why the old mode question was hard —
+recommend by the difference, don't agonize over category): `loud` vs `ordnance`
+(percussive type vs a themed world with plate reaction) · `neon` vs `neonsign`
+(neon-styled captions vs a sign being written) · `cream` vs `stardust` (warm
+embedded flow vs an accumulating poem with semantic dispersal) · `terminal` vs
+`glitch` (a console WORLD with typed log + decode vs corrupted-feed styling on
+normal captions) · `stomp` vs `loud` (every beat takes over the dead-center
+frame vs energetic type that still shares the frame with the subject).
+
+## Rules
+
+- Identities are **engine-locked** — no cross combos. Opening a new combo (e.g.
+  another DNA under rail) is a validation event: render → user review → flip the
+  DNA's `deliveries.rail` flag (see dna/README.md).
+- New identities join via their family's registry rules (dna/README.md for
+  classic, themes/README.md for themed — "any input, zero hand-fixing" bar).
+- The engines' internals (Standard/Cinematic/Theme compilers, gates, layers)
+  are documented in their own files; this catalog is the only routing surface.
