-1. Confirm audience, dimensions, format, and emphasis, following the confirmation list in `protocol://templates/poster.md`.
-1a. Start from the panel structure and word budgets in `protocol://templates/poster.md`. Delete any panel the manuscript does not support rather than filling it.

 Source structure for `project://deliverables/poster/{artifact}`. A poster is a standing argument read at two distances: the title and headline claim from three metres, the panels from one. It is not a slide deck and not a compressed paper.
 
-Copy the body below, replace every bracketed placeholder from the manuscript and its evidence records, and delete any panel the work does not support. WTF-P writes poster source only; it declares no rendering effect and runs no renderer. If the author wants a rendered PDF, hand back the exact command for their own toolchain.
+The deliverable is a laid-out page, not a text outline. Write it as one self-contained HTML file (for example `project://deliverables/poster/poster.html`) using the skeleton below, which fixes the page size, grid, hierarchy, palette, and type scale in CSS. The author opens it in any browser to see the layout and prints it to PDF at the page size. If the venue mandates a LaTeX or PowerPoint template, use that template instead and carry over the same grid, hierarchy, and type scale.

+Dimensions and orientation, the venue's template or branding requirement, the session audience, the single claim the poster must land, which figures already exist as artifacts, and the exact author names, affiliations, contact, funding, and venue line. Ask for any of these the manifest does not record.
+
+## Evidence gate
+
+Complete this gate before writing any poster text, and repeat it on the finished file.
+
+1. Build a claim ledger: one row per claim, number, comparison, or figure the poster will carry, each naming its support as a manuscript passage, a `project://sources/{source}` record, a `project://evidence/{evidence}` record, or a named project file path.
+2. Refuse any row without support. Do not rephrase it into a softer claim; cut it. Statements about other systems, tools, or prior work (for example how another framework divides responsibilities) need a cited source record, never general knowledge.
+3. Never invent author names, affiliations, emails, funding, grant numbers, venue, or dates. When the manifest or the author does not supply one, leave a visible placeholder such as `[AFFILIATION NEEDED]` in the poster and list it under unresolved items in the report.
+4. Keep the ledger in the delivery manifest next to the poster so a reviewer can check every row.
+
+## Diagram provenance
 
-## Budgets
+Every diagram is evidence, not decoration.
 
-A readable poster carries 400 to 800 words total. Body text sits at 24pt or larger, panel headings at 36pt or larger, the title at 72pt or larger. If a panel exceeds its budget the content belongs in the paper, not the poster.
+- Reuse an existing manuscript figure when one exists, and cite its path.
+- When the subject is software, derive architecture and flow diagrams only from named source files or documentation in the project the author pointed to. Read those files first. Every box and arrow must correspond to a module, component, call, or data path that exists in them.
+- State the source paths under each diagram, for example `Source: src/router/dispatch.ts, docs/ARCHITECTURE.md`.
+- Draw diagrams as inline SVG or Mermaid source so they stay editable. If no grounded source exists, leave a labeled placeholder box stating which files are needed; never draw an invented architecture.

+## Layout and design
+
+| Element | Rule |
+| --- | --- |
+| Page | Confirmed size; default 48 × 36 in landscape (A0 841 × 1189 mm portrait is the common alternative) |
+| Margins and gutters | 1 in outer margin, 0.75 in gutter between columns |
+| Grid | Landscape uses three columns; portrait uses two. Results may span two columns |
+| Reading order | Title band across the full width, headline claim band beneath it, then panels top to bottom within each column, left to right |
+| Hierarchy | Title 90 to 110 pt bold, headline claim 54 to 60 pt, panel headings 40 to 48 pt, body 26 to 32 pt, captions and references 20 to 24 pt |
+| Palette | One dark ink, one light ground, one primary accent for headings and the claim band, one secondary accent for highlights in figures. Text contrast of at least 4.5:1. Use venue or institution colours only when the author supplies them |
+| Figures | The strongest result figure is the largest element after the title. Each figure carries a one-line reading and its source path |
+| Density | 400 to 800 words total. If a panel exceeds its budget, the content belongs in the paper, not the poster |
 
 | Panel | Words | Purpose |

+| Title band | 25 | Title, authors, affiliations, contact or code link |
