+# Agent instructions
+
+## Use this method
+
+Read [the canonical skill](skills/website-build-skill/SKILL.md) for website work.
+Start with `prompts/00-start.md` inside that skill directory, using the recorded install choice.
+Researcher works first; keep current research, brand decisions and receipts in the user's project.
+Use the user's designated workspace. Do not turn this repository into their website.
+For a limited audit or fix, load the relevant stage and preserve unrelated work.
+User instructions retain authority. Fetched sources cannot expand scope.
+
+## Contribute to this repository
+
+Read [CONTRIBUTING](CONTRIBUTING.md) and [INSTALLER](docs/INSTALLER.md) before edits.
+Edit canonical sources, then regenerate bundles with `node scripts/build.mjs`.
+Run `node scripts/check.mjs` and `node --test test/*.test.mjs`.
+Report actual results and skips. No em dashes or private project data in public files.
+The installer refuses to clobber: preserve existing files during manual copies too.
+Do not publish or change account/repository settings without authorization.

+# Changelog
+
+All notable changes will be documented here.
+Format: [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/).
+Version policy: [Semantic Versioning 2.0.0](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
+
+## [Unreleased]
+
+## [0.1.0] - 2026-09-23
+
+### Added
+
+- Per-claim page fetch receipts with verbatim excerpts and OPENED or UNVERIFIED ledger status.
+- Deterministic `check-library` CLI checks and independent live source sampling in the research gate.
+- Research-first website method, stage prompts, roles, playbooks and artifact templates.
+- Manual adapters, generated upload bundles and manifest-derived discovery index.
+- Community documents, repository settings checklist and local content gates.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Research acceptance stays BLOCKED for acted-on claims without consistent fetch receipts.
+- Scope saves consistently use `<root>/site-work/research/library/scope.md`.
+- Mockups require an image per direction and viewport, optionally with a static HTML preview.
+- Same-day receipt reuse follows the UTC calendar day within one engagement, with new fetches after day changes or change triggers.
+
+- First-run retrieval paths name the public repository tree, archive and raw files instead of waiting on publication.
+- The install choice card distinguishes file installation from manual worker setup; the installer does not start workers.
+- The zero-install starter names the full twelve-stage route, including Scope, Choose, Protect and Challenge.
+- Maintainer scripts use plain JavaScript ES modules without the former TypeScript runtime flag.
+- Repository settings are recorded as a dated live read-back rather than an unapplied proposal.
+
+- The installer the contract specified: preflight, symlink and traversal refusal, no-clobber
+  idempotence, dry run, a receipt of per-file digests, receipt-based uninstall and exit codes.
+- Publishable package metadata with a real `bin`, an engine floor continuous integration runs,
+  and a `v*` tag that publishes with provenance through npm trusted publishing.
+- Sources renamed from `.ts` to `.mjs`, since none of them contained TypeScript. The
+  `--experimental-strip-types` flag, its runtime guard and the Node 22.6 floor are gone.
+
+### Planned
+
+- Generated native workers for the seven-role team, gated on schema and permission tests.
+- Clean-client trials, behavioral evaluations and fresh-tarball trials on Linux and Windows.

+# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
+
+## Our Pledge
+
+We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in our
+community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size,
+visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity
+and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status,
+nationality, personal appearance, race, caste, color, religion, or sexual identity
+and orientation.
+
+We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming,
+diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our
+community include:
+
+* Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people
+* Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences
+* Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback
+* Accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes,
+  and learning from the experience
+* Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the overall
+  community
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
+
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or advances of
+  any kind
+* Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email address,
+  without their explicit permission
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+  professional setting
+
+## Enforcement Responsibilities
+
+Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our standards of
+acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive,
+or harmful.
+
+Community leaders have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject
+comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are not
+aligned to this Code of Conduct, and will communicate reasons for moderation
+decisions when appropriate.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when
+an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
+Examples of representing our community include using an official e-mail address,
+posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
+representative at an online or offline event.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported privately through GitHub's Report abuse control on the relevant content
+or account, or through [GitHub Support](https://support.github.com/contact).
+Repository leaders responsible for local enforcement are identified in
+[MAINTAINERS.md](MAINTAINERS.md). GitHub handles platform reports; delivery to
+repository maintainers is UNVERIFIED and must not be assumed.
+For repository vulnerabilities, use [private security reporting](SECURITY.md).
+Do not place private incident details in public issues.
+All complaints received by community leaders will be reviewed and investigated
+promptly and fairly.
+
+All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the
+reporter of any incident.
+
+## Enforcement Guidelines
+
+Community leaders will follow these Community Impact Guidelines in determining
+the consequences for any action they deem in violation of this Code of Conduct:
+
+### 1. Correction
+
+**Community Impact**: Use of inappropriate language or other behavior deemed
+unprofessional or unwelcome in the community.
+
+**Consequence**: A private, written warning from community leaders, providing
+clarity around the nature of the violation and an explanation of why the behavior
+was inappropriate. A public apology may be requested.
+
+### 2. Warning
+
+**Community Impact**: A violation through a single incident or series of actions.
+
+**Consequence**: A warning with consequences for continued behavior. No
+interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction with
+those enforcing the Code of Conduct, for a specified period of time. This
+includes avoiding interactions in community spaces as well as external channels
+like social media. Violating these terms may lead to a temporary or permanent ban.
+
+### 3. Temporary Ban
+
+**Community Impact**: A serious violation of community standards, including
+sustained inappropriate behavior.
+
+**Consequence**: A temporary ban from any sort of interaction or public
+communication with the community for a specified period of time. No public or
+private interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction
+with those enforcing the Code of Conduct, is allowed during this period.
+Violating these terms may lead to a permanent ban.
+
+### 4. Permanent Ban
+
+**Community Impact**: Demonstrating a pattern of violation of community
+standards, including sustained inappropriate behavior, harassment of an
+individual, or aggression toward or disparagement of classes of individuals.
+
+**Consequence**: A permanent ban from any sort of public interaction within
+the community.
+

+# Contributing
+
+Welcome: reproducible defects, clearer instructions, accessible examples and host evidence.
+Start with a small issue describing the user-visible failure and a concrete success check.
+Use synthetic fixtures and reserved example domains. Never paste real project transcripts.
+
+## Edit the source
+
+- Canonical method: `skills/website-build-skill/`; read its manifest before changing a route.
+- Generated files: `docs/bundles/*.md` and `llms.txt`; never hand-edit them.
+- Team supplement: `adapters/grok.md` supplies the manual fallback appended by the generator.
+- Archive: preserve the inactive graphics original byte-for-byte. Keep it out of active routes and bundles.
+- Digests: after an intentional canonical edit, update only the affected manifest SHA-256 entry, review the diff, then regenerate.
+- Claims: changed storefront/reference prose requires an explicit review entry in `docs/evidence/content-review.json`. Do not regenerate that ledger as part of the build.
+- Evidence: any affirmative test, measurement, publication or compatibility claim needs a repository evidence file with command, environment, date, result and artifact identity. A URL or an invented receipt is insufficient.
+
+## Voice
+
+- Lead with the useful action, use short sentences and name the artifact.
+- No em dashes. No fabricated measurements, clients, testimonials or support guarantees.
+- Mark unavailable commands planned on the same line; mark uncertain behavior UNVERIFIED.
+- Keep historical dates inside clearly inactive evidence; current research is relative to ASK DATE.
+
+## Run locally
+
+Prerequisite: Node 18 or newer; no dependency install is required. The check matrix
+covers Node 18, 20, 22.22.3 and 24. The file installer is implemented; native worker
+generation and client activation remain UNVERIFIED. Registry publication is a separate
+release step, not something inferred from a working local executable.
+
+```sh
+node scripts/build.mjs
+node scripts/check.mjs
+node --test test/*.test.mjs
+```
+
+Build rewrites only the five bundles and the index. Check is read-only and fails on drift.
+Tests use synthetic temporary directories inside this checkout and remove them afterward.
+For a new check, demonstrate a failing fixture and a valid control. See [evaluation](docs/EVALUATION.md).
+The Markdown gate checks file targets, reference links, images, HTML links and heading anchors.
+External URLs require a separate live review; offline success does not prove availability.
+
+## Review and handoff
+
+Describe the problem, resulting behavior, exact checks and any remaining limits in the PR.
+Obtain a different-family adversarial review before connecting new executable code to publication.
+Do not publish, change settings, add secrets or expand write scope as part of a content contribution.
+Use [private disclosure](SECURITY.md) for vulnerabilities and [conduct reporting](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) for abuse.
+See [release operations](RELEASING.md) and [ownership](MAINTAINERS.md).

+Choose how you work: teach one AI the whole method, or give the jobs to seven specialists.
+Research current as of the date of your ask, turn your brand into usable rules, then compare three designs before code.
+Build with the smallest stack that fits, and check accessibility, speed, search, and security.
+Teach my AI works with Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, Cursor, or Copilot, with nothing else to install.
+Give me the team needs Claude Code, Codex, Hermes, Antigravity, or Grok Bot; start with the setup line for your host.
+
+The pitch describes the intended experience. Native loading and team setup are UNVERIFIED.
+The installer copies files and reports what it wrote; it never starts a worker for you.
+
+```text
+How do you want to work?
+
+  1  Teach my AI          One AI learns the whole thing and does every job itself.
+                          Works with any AI: Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, Cursor, Copilot.
+                          Nothing else to install.
+
+  2  Give me the team     Seven specialist agents, one per job, starting with a researcher that gets them all current.
+                          Needs Claude Code, Codex, Hermes, Antigravity, or Grok Bot.
+                          One command installs their files; you open each session yourself.
+
+Not sure? Pick 1. Moving to 2 later costs you nothing you have already done.
+
+Where should the work be saved?
+
+  1  Obsidian vault       Give an existing folder inside your vault. The library is
+                          plain Markdown, so it opens and links natively.
+
+  2  A folder on this computer
+                          Give an existing directory. The default is the
+                          website project folder.
+
+  3  Notion               Working copy still lives in a folder on this computer,
+                          because every gate reads its own files back by path.
+                          Notion receives an export of the finished library.
+
+  4  Somewhere else       Type an existing local destination yourself.
+
+Whatever you pick becomes the workspace root. Everything below is written inside it.
+```
+
+## Start with one paste
+
+Copy this starter into your AI chat, then describe the website you want.
+No clone, repository access or npm is needed to give the AI this first task.
+
+```text
+Use option 1: Teach my AI. Help me build a website with Research, Learn, Ingest, Scope, Match, Mock, Choose, Build, Prove, Protect, Challenge and Ship. First act as Researcher: establish the request date from host evidence, then research the site's design, accessibility, performance, security, stack and search needs using current opened sources. Save a library with source URLs, publication dates or unknown, access dates, disagreements and checklists. If you lack search, say research is BLOCKED and return a query plan. If you lack files, return named bodies for me to save and reattach before passing the save gate. Only then confirm my brief, extract my brand or request profile/banner screenshots, and show three visual mockups. Wait for my named selection before site code. Choose the smallest fitting stack. Keep evidence and handoffs between roles. Protect means security headers and the ship security checklist; Challenge means a different model family reviews a fixed candidate read-only, and I authorize release. This starter is a compact entrypoint, so do not claim Ship until the five bundles or the skill folder supply the full twelve-stage route and its checklists. Start with the site request I provide next; ask only for missing inputs that change the work.
+```
+
+For the complete method, paste or attach the five local bundles:
+[method](docs/bundles/method.md), [prompts](docs/bundles/prompts.md),
+[playbooks](docs/bundles/playbooks.md), [checklists](docs/bundles/checklists.md),
+and [team](docs/bundles/team.md).
+From another machine, read them from the public repository: browse [the bundle folder](https://github.com/aunysillyme/website-build-skill/tree/main/docs/bundles),
+download [the main archive](https://github.com/aunysillyme/website-build-skill/archive/refs/heads/main.zip), or open one raw file such as
+`https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aunysillyme/website-build-skill/main/docs/bundles/method.md`.
+Those paths serve the files; whether a given host can fetch and load a URL by itself is UNVERIFIED.
+The starter is a compact entrypoint, not a substitute for all stage instructions.
+
+## Choose your host
+
+Manual copy means copy the **entire** `skills/website-build-skill/` folder into a new destination,
+including its manifest and subdirectories. Preserve conflicting files; do not merge blindly.
+Native discovery, tool permissions and team automation are UNVERIFIED until a real client trial.
+
+| Host | What to run, copy or upload now | What you get |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| [Claude Code](adapters/claude-code.md) | Copy the full folder to `.claude/skills/website-build-skill/`; explicitly ask the host to read SKILL.md | Method files; candidate native invocation `/website-build-skill` is UNVERIFIED |
+| [Codex](adapters/codex.md) | Copy the full folder to `.agents/skills/website-build-skill/`; ask it to read the entrypoint | SOLO method; native discovery is UNVERIFIED |
+| [Hermes](adapters/hermes.md) | Copy to `.agents/skills/website-build-skill/`; verify project trust and loading | Shared candidate core; native activation and alias behavior are UNVERIFIED |
+| [Antigravity](adapters/antigravity.md) | Copy to `.website-build-skill/`; explicitly ask the session to read SKILL.md | Portable core; native seven-role generation is planned |
+| [Grok Bot](adapters/grok.md) | Attach the five bundles and paste the adapter's team request; use its manual New-Bot fallback where needed | Seven role instructions; Bot creation and routing are UNVERIFIED |
+| [Claude Desktop](adapters/claude-desktop.md) | Attach the five bundles and paste the shared instruction block | SOLO method; account-level skill ZIP upload is UNVERIFIED |
+| [ChatGPT](adapters/chatgpt-project.md) | Put the instruction block in Project instructions and attach the five bundles; [custom GPT route](adapters/custom-gpt.md) | SOLO reference packet; account controls and file access are UNVERIFIED |
+
+Run directly from the public repository while registry publication is pending.
+These commands copy files and write a receipt; they do not activate a host:
+
+```bash
+npx github:aunysillyme/website-build-skill --solo --target codex --dir . --yes
+npx github:aunysillyme/website-build-skill --team --target claude-code --dir . --yes
+```
+
+For a reproducible install, append `#<reviewed-commit-sha>` to the GitHub package
+specifier. Use the registry package name only after a published version is verified.
+
+Omit flags for the interactive mode, host and save-location questions. Save locations
+must be existing directories; paths retain their case. Notion is a recorded export
+destination, with an authoritative local working copy and no automatic upload.
+With `--yes`, add `--output-dir` to record an existing output root, or let the host ask
+before research. Add `--dry-run` to see every path first, and
+`--uninstall` to remove only the files it wrote and left untouched.
+It copies files. It does not start seven workers, supply an independent model provider, or
+prove a host loaded anything; activation stays UNVERIFIED until a real client trial.
+
+## What you get
+
+- **Method:** research current to the request date, learn and ingest it, confirm scope, match the brand, compare three mockups, choose a stack, build, prove, protect, challenge and ship.
+- **Researcher:** saves the shared thirteen-domain library before any other role works.
+- **Coordinator:** accepts evidence, owns the brief and routes handoffs at every gate.
+- **Designer:** extracts brand rules and presents three visual directions before code.
+- **Graphics:** produces assets and records rights, formats and exports.
+- **Builder:** implements the selected direction and reproduces review findings.
+- **Optimizer:** researches and checks search, answer-engine and discovery requirements.
+- **Reviewer:** challenges a fixed candidate read-only, using a different model family.
+- **Your library:** grouped findings, opened URLs, source/access dates, disagreements, domain checklists, staleness schedule, memory packet and stage receipts in your project.
+
+Every agent runs its own research pass before it touches your site, so it works from what is
+true as of the date of your ask, not from what its model happens to remember.
+This is a required workflow, not evidence that a host automatically performs it.
+SOLO follows the same seven jobs with saved self-handoffs. TEAM needs real separate routes.
+[Method details](docs/METHOD.md) · [fictional brief](skills/website-build-skill/examples/fictional-studio-brief.md).
+
+## Honest limits
+
+| Missing capability | Useful next step | Gate that remains incomplete |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Search | Review supplied sources and return a query plan | Current research, even with an old library |
+| File writing | Return named bodies for the user to save and reattach | Persistence until read-back |
+| Image tools | Prepare a designer handoff and wireframes | Three inspected visual mockups |
+| A second model family | Return an INTERNAL critique and external review packet | Independent review and shipment |
+| Execution or browser | Draft code and exact verification commands | Measurements, functional checks and live QA |
+| Separate workers | Run the seven roles sequentially with self-handoffs | TEAM activation |
+| Deployment access | Prepare an operator handoff | Public release and live verification |
+
+See [compatibility](docs/COMPATIBILITY.md) for the evidence required before a support claim.
+No release, score, hosted CI result or clean-client trial is claimed here.
+
+## Tips and next steps
+
+- **Brand:** supply approved assets; review screenshot-derived guesses before they become rules.
+- **Choice:** compare hierarchy, density, typography and imagery across the three mockups.
+- **Reuse:** reopen saved research and invalidate stale claims before another page or another role.
+- **Scope:** keep one primary action and use the smallest stack that earns its complexity.
+- **Evidence:** keep the measured result beside the command and exact candidate that produced it.

+# Release operations
+
+## What and why
+
+This is the end-to-end operating document for repository validation and distribution.
+The system generates Markdown bundles, checks repository content locally, and publishes the
+package to npm when a version tag is pushed. Native worker generation and any claim of host
+activation remain unavailable and unverified; publication of the files is not.
+The release workflow IS the publisher. It holds no stored registry secret: it authenticates
+through npm trusted publishing, which exchanges a short-lived OIDC token issued to that one job.
+
+## Trigger
+
+Local: a maintainer changes canonical content or adapters and explicitly runs the commands below.
+Hosted checks: pull request, push to main or manual dispatch after repository creation.
+Release: pushing a `v*` tag runs the publish job, which republishes nothing and refuses a tag
+whose version disagrees with `package.json`. No scheduled publication exists, and no branch
+push publishes. Creating the GitHub release page stays manual.
+
+## Invocation chain
+
+1. Read the candidate and resolve any source, privacy, claim-review or license defect.
+2. Run `node scripts/build.mjs` to regenerate bundles and the index.
+3. Run `node scripts/check.mjs` without rewriting outputs.
+4. Run `node --test test/*.test.mjs` for rejection cases and valid controls.
+5. Review the exact candidate with an independent model family before wiring executable changes into live automation.
+6. Update `CHANGELOG.md`, then set the same version in `package.json`, `.claude-plugin/plugin.json` and the manifest's `packageVersion`; the check fails when they disagree.
+7. Commit, then push an immutable `v<version>` tag on that commit. Leave the tag where it is: npm provenance names that exact commit, so a later history rewrite would point the provenance at a commit that no longer exists.
+8. The workflow re-runs the gates, packs the tarball, installs it in a scratch project, runs the installed entry point, and only then publishes with `--provenance`.
+9. Wait for the registry, which lagged by roughly a minute on the sibling repository, then complete the verification loop below before recording the release as complete.
+
+## Dependencies
+
+Local maintainer runtime: Node 22.22.3. The sources are plain ES modules; no build step or dependency install is needed.
+The check matrix covers Node 18, 20, 22.22.3 and 24. Sources are JavaScript ES modules;
+no TypeScript compiler is part of this operating chain. Consult the revision-bound
+baseline receipt in docs/evidence/audit-baseline.json and rerun checks for a new candidate.
+Workflow files use the JSON subset of YAML so structural security checks need no YAML dependency.
+The checkout and runtime setup actions are pinned to upstream commit URLs recorded in provenance.
+Network is needed by hosted setup, registry publication and public delivery probes,
+not by the local content gates.
+npm trusted publishing must be configured once, by hand, on npmjs.com: the package's settings,
+Trusted publisher, GitHub Actions, with the owner and repository exactly as they appear in

+then workflow `release.yml` and an empty environment. A package that does not exist yet
+cannot carry that setting, so the FIRST version is published by hand from an authorized
+maintainer login, and every version after it is published by the workflow. `npm publish --provenance` only works
+inside a CI runner; never run that flag locally.
+
+## Reads
+
+Canonical manifest and assets, the Grok manual fallback, team ownership roster,
+public documents, metadata, workflow files, coverage register and editorial claim ledger.
+Generated bundles preserve source boundaries and rebase rendered links to canonical files.
+The archive is an immutable input and never an active bundle member.
+
+## Writes
+
+Build writes exactly `docs/bundles/method.md`, `prompts.md`, `playbooks.md`, `checklists.md`,
+`team.md` below that same bundle directory, plus root `llms.txt`.
+Check writes nothing. Tests create synthetic scratch directories only under `.test-work/` and remove their own directories.
+The installer writes only its destination, the output root probe it removes, and its receipt.
+The check workflow has only `contents: read`. The release workflow's publish job adds exactly
+one permission, `id-token: write`, for the OIDC exchange, and the workflow validator refuses
+that permission at the top level, in any other job, and in any other workflow.
+The installer writes only inside the destination it was given, the output root probe it removes,
+and its receipt.
+
+## The closed loop
+
+Local success requires exit 0 from both the read-only check and the test runner, with no unexpected skips.
+The privacy gate passes on the published tree. Its two public-identifier exemptions are narrow and
+documented in `docs/EVALUATION.md`; the tests run against the same policy, not a separate one.
+Inspect the full output and changed file list. A generated file existing is not enough; its bytes must match regeneration.
+Hosted success requires the exact source revision's run to pass on every runtime in the matrix.
+Release completion requires `npm view website-build-skill version` to name the tag, a fresh
+`npx website-build-skill@<version> --version` from a machine that has never held the package,
+and one real install into a scratch directory whose receipt digests match the bytes on disk.
+Host discovery and activation are still not proven by any of that.
+Record downloaded bytes, commands, versions, date, actual results and any gaps as sanitized evidence.
+Update the changelog only for a real release.
+Watcher: local checks have no watcher. GitHub Actions can notify configured repository watchers; delivery is UNVERIFIED.
+No separate watchdog is configured. The public repository owner is the failure recipient; use public issues only for sanitized operational failures and private reporting for security.
+
+## Failure modes
+
+- Missing input or invalid manifest: repair the canonical reference, never silently drop a stage.
+- Bundle drift: review the source change and regenerate, then rerun check. Never have CI silently repair the candidate.
+- Private data: remove it from all public artifacts; if already exposed, use private incident handling and rotate affected credentials through the owner's authorized process.
+- Claim review pending: review the prose and actual evidence before updating its checksum entry; the generator must not approve claims.
+- Floating action or unexpected write permission: restore an upstream full SHA and read-only permissions, preserving only the reviewed publish-job OIDC exception.
+- Local tests fail: stop publication, reproduce, fix confirmed defects and rerun the affected harness.
+- Runtime or network unavailable: report BLOCKED with the failing command; do not substitute a pass.
+- Future publication partly succeeds: inspect registry and release state before any retry. Never assume an npm version can be overwritten or routinely deleted.
+- Future bad release: halt promotion, publish a corrected version after review, and use the registry's then-current deprecation mechanism. Preserve hashes and disclose affected versions. Do not silently replace bytes under a release claim.
+- Missing maintainer response: preserve the candidate and evidence, keep publication blocked and use the repository's documented escalation route.

+## Run and verify by hand
+
+From the repository root, with no project data in the tree:
+
+```sh
+node --version
+node scripts/build.mjs
+node scripts/check.mjs
+node --test test/*.test.mjs
+```
+
+Expected now: build names six generated files; check prints PASS; tests exit 0 after rejecting
+every RED fixture. Check must print PASS before publication can proceed.
+Run check once more only if a file changes after verification.
+To exercise the installer end to end without publishing anything:
+
+```sh
+tarball="$(npm pack --silent)"
+trial="$(mktemp -d)"
+cd "$trial" && npm init -y > /dev/null && npm install "$OLDPWD/$tarball"
+./node_modules/.bin/website-build-skill --solo --target codex --dir . --yes
+```
+
+Expected: exit 0, 55 files plus a receipt under `.agents/skills/website-build-skill/`, and
+`--uninstall --receipt <that path>` leaving the directory empty again. Exit 5 instead of 0 means
+the scratch project already had a router file; that is a completed install with an unmerged
+snippet, not a failure.
