## Launch prompt

```
Add /Users/benstull/Downloads/wiggleverse-design-system to the engineering content repo where the design system should live
```

## Plan

> Anchor: #37 (type/task — "Land the Claude Design wiggleverse-design-system
> export bundle under design-system/"; ELIGIBLE per R2b)

Trivial single-step content landing (no separate plan artifact): copy the
Claude Design export bundle from `~/Downloads/wiggleverse-design-system/`
verbatim (minus `.DS_Store`) into a new top-level `design-system/` directory,
on an isolated worktree branch (`worktree-design-system-import` — session 0009
still shows in-progress, so the §5.4 worktree mandate applies), then commit →
push → PR → merge to `main`. Docs/content-only change: no deployable UI app is
touched, so the §9 pipeline has no stage to run.

## Pre-session state

- engineering `main` clean, in sync with `origin/main` at `4d72bb1`; no stray
  local branches.
- Same conversation as capture session 0013 (filed #35, the Design-vs-Code
  rubric story), finalized just before this session opened.
- SESSION-0009 (started 2026-06-10T09-40) still `--INPROGRESS` in
  session-history → the concurrent-session worktree mandate applied.
- The bundle: a Claude Design (claude.ai/design) handoff export, 520K / 75
  files — design tokens (colors, spacing, typography CSS), components in four
  groups (core, brand, cards, navigation; each `.jsx` + `.d.ts` +
  `.prompt.md` + card HTML), guideline cards, brand assets + webfonts, a
  `wiggleverse-www` UI kit, `_ds_manifest.json` / `_ds_bundle.js` /
  `SKILL.md` / adherence lint config.

## Turn-by-turn arc

1. **Gate → planning-and-executing.** New substantive work after 0013 closed;
   classified as a coding session and claimed **0014** first.
2. **Baseline + recon.** Verified clean pushed `main`; inspected the bundle
   (Claude Design export, "recreate, don't render" README) and the repo root
   (`schemas/`, `solution-design/`, `specs/`, `infra/`…). Placement decision:
   a new **top-level `design-system/`**, peer to `solution-design/` and
   `schemas/` — the operator said "where the design system should go" without
   naming a path (logged under Deferred decisions).
3. **Anchor (R2).** No existing leaf issue covered the landing, so filed
   **#37** (`type/task`, P2) via the capture filing layer, with the operator
   instruction as Source/signal; `check-issue-eligibility.sh` → ELIGIBLE
   (R2b).
4. **Worktree isolation.** 0009's plain `--INPROGRESS` (not
   ENDED-UNFINALIZED) triggered the §5.4 mandate; entered native worktree
   `design-system-import` (branch `worktree-design-system-import`) off clean
   `main`.
5. **Land.** `rsync -a --exclude .DS_Store` → `design-system/` (75 files,
   3304 insertions, bundle kept verbatim); commit `b8a038b`.
6. **Ship.** Pushed; created **PR #38** via `gitea-api.sh` (the TOKENS.md
   card: `/pulls` needs the per-host git token, not the issue-scoped one);
   merged (merge commit, matching repo history) → `main` at `757a2fd`;
   remote branch auto-deleted; **#37 auto-closed** by "Closes #37".
   Checkpoint-published the transcript after the merge.
7. **Finalize.** No plan artifact to archive (trivial-path skip). Pipeline:
   docs/content-only, no stage to run. Fast-forwarded the canonical clone's
   `main`, tore down the worktree (see Deferred decisions on the
   `discard_changes` override), published this transcript.

## Deferred decisions

- **Placement: top-level `design-system/`.** The operator said "where the
  design system should go" without naming a path. Chose a new top-level
  `design-system/` directory (peer to `solution-design/` and `schemas/`,
  org-wide shared artifact), keeping the bundle's internal structure
  (`README.md` + `project/…`) verbatim as the system of record. Alternative
  considered: nesting under `solution-design/`. Cheap to move if wrong.
- **`ExitWorktree` removal needed `discard_changes: true`.** The tool refused
  removal because the branch carried commit `b8a038b`; its heuristic counts
  branch commits, not merge state. Verified `b8a038b` contained in both local
  and origin `main` (`git branch --contains`), so the override discarded
  nothing. Noting it here because the tool framed it as destructive.
- **Anchor filed mid-init without pausing.** No leaf issue existed for the
  landing, so #37 was filed autonomously (the R2 gate needs an anchor; the
  body carries the operator instruction as provenance). Alternative: anchor on
  #35 — rejected, since #35 is the rubric-integration story, a distinct piece
  of work.

## Cut state (end of session)

| Item | State |
| --- | --- |
| engineering `main` | `757a2fd` — "Merge pull request 'design-system: land Claude Design export bundle (engineering#37)' (#38)"; canonical clone fast-forwarded, clean |
| `design-system/` | live on `main`: export README + `project/` (tokens, components, guidelines, assets+fonts, `wiggleverse-www` UI kit, manifest, SKILL.md) — 75 files, verbatim minus `.DS_Store` |
| **#37** | closed (auto, on merge of PR #38) |
| PR #38 | merged; branch `worktree-design-system-import` deleted (remote + local via worktree teardown) |
| Worktree | removed; session back in the canonical clone |
| #35 (rubric story) | open, untouched — but Q4 ("design system maturity") now starts scoring toward *Code* for surfaces this system covers |
| Source bundle | still at `/Users/benstull/Downloads/wiggleverse-design-system` (operator may delete it; the repo copy is canonical) |
| Memory | unchanged — standing `Next /goal:` (gitea VM scope window, issue #34 P0) still the queue head |
| SESSION-0009 | still `--INPROGRESS` (pre-existing; adopt-and-finalize remains an open chore) |

## What lands on the operator's plate

- Optionally delete `~/Downloads/wiggleverse-design-system` — the repo copy
  under `design-system/` is now canonical (not deleted by the session; the
  operator's Downloads folder is theirs).
- If the `design-system/` top-level placement is wrong, say so — moving it is
  a one-commit change.
- Standing items unchanged: issue #34 (P0, gitea VM scope maintenance window)
  and the stale SESSION-0009 placeholder.

## Prompt the operator can paste into the next session

```
/goal next
```

(resumes the stored gitea VM scope maintenance window → SLICE-1 finish →
SLICE-2). To work the rubric story instead, now nicely set up by this landing:

```
/goal implement engineering#35 — land the Claude Design vs Claude Code rubric doc and wire the recorded decision into solution-design/GUIDE.md + TEMPLATE.md, referencing the new design-system/ as the code-resident design system
```
