+### Changed
+- **Design D HUD** — StatusLine HUD redesigned with `██` accent bar, inline `▓░` progress bars for budget and context, no separator lines. 1 line when context <50%, 2 lines when context visible. Accent bar turns red when budget >75%. Matches Design D across all UI surfaces.
+- **Design D block accent UI** — All bordered boxes replaced with left-only `██` block accent bars. Eliminates persistent right-border misalignment caused by emoji/unicode width differences across terminals. Color-coded: yellow for won, red for died, gray for neutral.
+- ScoreCard, StatsView, ActiveRun, StartRun components all use custom Ink `borderStyle` with `left: '██'`, no right/top/bottom borders
+- session-end.js ANSI scorecard uses `██` prefix per line with `─` horizontal separators
+- Achievement badges in StatsView rendered inline (no individual bordered boxes)
+- Death tip in ScoreCard rendered as indented text (no bordered box)
+- Landing page terminal demos updated to match `██` style
+- README screenshots replaced with inline code block demos — no more stale PNGs
+
 ### Fixed
 - StatusLine HUD effort label now reads exclusively from live `settings.json` — `/model` changes (High, Low, Max) reflect immediately without requiring a new session
 - Medium effort no longer shown in HUD or scorecard — it's the default, so it's omitted (same as not annotating Sonnet as "normal difficulty")

-## Why "TokenGolf"?
+Turn Claude Code token efficiency into a game. Declare a quest, commit to a budget, pick a character class. Work normally. At the end — a scorecard, achievements, and a score that measures how well you prompt.
 
-[Code golf](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_golf) is the engineering practice of solving a problem in as few characters (or lines, or bytes) as possible. The constraint isn't the point — the *discipline the constraint creates* is the point. Writing the shortest possible solution forces you to understand the problem deeply and use your tools precisely.
+**Better prompting → fewer tokens → higher score.** 60+ achievements. 9 hooks. 4 character classes. Zero config beyond `npm install`.
 
-Token golf is the same idea applied to AI sessions. Your budget is par. Every unnecessary prompt, every redundant context dump, every "can you also..." tacked onto a request is a stroke over par. The game doesn't literally resemble golf — it borrows the concept: **optimize under constraint, measure your score, improve your game.**

-|-------|-------|--------|------|
-| 🏹 Rogue | Haiku | — *(skips effort step)* | Glass cannon. Prompt precisely or die. |
-| ⚔️ Fighter | Sonnet | Low / **Medium** / High | Balanced. The default run. |
-| 🧙 Warlock | Opus | Low / **Medium** / High / Max | Powerful but costly. |
-| ⚜️ Paladin | Opus (plan mode) | Low / **Medium** / High / Max | Strategic planner. Thinks before acting. |

+### ⛳ Flow Mode
+Just work. TokenGolf auto-creates a tracking session when you open Claude Code. `/exit` and the scorecard appears. No pre-configuration.
 
-`max` effort is Opus-only — the API returns an error if used on other models. Fast mode is toggled mid-session with `/fast` in Claude Code and is auto-detected by TokenGolf.
+### ☠️ Roguelike Mode
+Pre-commit before you start. Declare a quest, pick a class and effort level, set a budget. Go over budget = permadeath — the run is logged as a death. The pressure trains better prompting habits, which makes your Flow sessions cheaper over time.

-## Ultrathink
-
-Write `ultrathink` anywhere in your prompt to trigger extended thinking mode. It's not a slash command — just say it in natural language:
-
-> *"ultrathink: is this the right architecture before I write anything?"*
-> *"can you ultrathink through the tradeoffs here?"*
-
-Extended thinking tokens are billed at full output rate. A single ultrathink on Sonnet can cost $0.50–2.00 depending on problem depth. TokenGolf detects thinking blocks from your session transcripts and tracks invocations and estimated thinking tokens — both show on your scorecard.
-
-**The skill is knowing when to ultrathink.** One expensive deep-think that prevents five wrong turns is efficient. Ultrathinking every prompt when you're at 80% budget is hubris.
+Budget presets are model-calibrated — Haiku Diamond is $0.15, Opus Diamond is $2.50. Same relative difficulty, different absolute cost.

-## The Meta Loop
-
-The dungeon crawl framing maps directly to real session behaviors:
-
-- **Overencumbered** = context bloat slowing you down
-- **Made Camp** = hit usage limits, came back next session
-- **Ghost Run** = surgical context management before the boss
-- **Hubris** = reached for ultrathink on a tight budget and paid for it
-- **Silent Run** = solved it with pure prompting discipline, no extended thinking needed
-- **Lone Wolf** = didn't spawn a single subagent; held the whole problem in one context
-- **Agentic** = gave Claude the wheel and it ran with it — 3+ turns per prompt
+## Achievements
 
-Roguelike mode surfaces these patterns explicitly. Flow mode lets them compound over time. The meta loop: **roguelike practice makes Flow sessions better. Better Flow = lower daily spend = better scores without even trying.**
+60+ achievements tracking how you prompt, what tools you use, and how efficiently you spend. Here are some highlights:

+<summary><strong>Why "TokenGolf"?</strong></summary>
 
-Nine hooks installed via `tokengolf install`:
+[Code golf](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_golf) is the engineering practice of solving a problem in as few characters (or lines, or bytes) as possible. The constraint isn't the point — the *discipline the constraint creates* is the point. Writing the shortest possible solution forces you to understand the problem deeply and use your tools precisely.
+
+Token golf is the same idea applied to AI sessions. Your budget is par. Every unnecessary prompt, every redundant context dump, every "can you also..." tacked onto a request is a stroke over par. The game doesn't literally resemble golf — it borrows the concept: **optimize under constraint, measure your score, improve your game.**
