Draft only the declared manuscript artifact; cite only resolvable sources, preserve author constraints, and stop at blocking decisions.

 4. Create or update the required Markdown summary with that measured count, then read back both manuscript and summary. Missing, empty, or inconsistent output is a failed completion condition, not permission to link a path that does not exist.
 5. Persist the validation, synchronize the manuscript URI in `manifest.artifacts.manuscripts`, and reconcile section/state records only after manuscript, summary, and validation readback succeeds. If blocked, create the declared checkpoint and stop; do not commit or merge automatically.

+- 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.
 
-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.
+## 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 block | 25 | Title, authors, affiliations, contact or code link |
+| Title band | 25 | Title, authors, affiliations, contact or code link |
 | Headline claim | 30 | The finding, stated as a sentence a reader can repeat |
 | Motivation | 80 | The problem and why the audience should care |
-| Approach | 120 | What was built or done, with one diagram |
+| Approach | 120 | What was built or done, with one grounded diagram |
 | Results | 150 | Two or three figures, each with a one-line reading |
 | What it means | 80 | The consequence, and the boundary of the claim |
 | References and provenance | 60 | Cited sources, funding, and artifact links |

 ## Attribution rules
 
-Every number, figure, and claim on the poster must trace to a manuscript passage or an evidence record. Carry the source attribution onto the poster itself for any figure reused from another work. Do not introduce a claim, a number, or a citation that appears nowhere in the project's records.
+Every number, figure, and claim on the poster must trace to a row in the claim ledger. Carry the source attribution onto the poster itself for any figure reused from another work. Do not introduce a claim, a number, a citation, or a piece of author metadata that appears nowhere in the project's records or the author's answers.
