Marcos Paulo 580293867d refactor: retire the hand-written site
Deletes the pre-Astro pages, scripts, and stylesheets that the migration
replaced, and moves the ones it did not replace out of the way.

Deleted (32 files): app.js, responsive.css, landing.css, rules/app.js,
rules/styles.css, skills/app.js, the ten route index.html files, and the
root hands-on/ copy, which is byte-identical to public/hands-on/ -- the
one the build actually ships.

Moved to legacy/ (12 files): styles.css, full-guide/audit.css,
chapters.css, skills/styles.css, skills-review/styles.css,
skills-review/change-lens.css, and the skills-review/app.js module graph.
These are not dead. The Astro pages import them and the build fails
without them, which the plan had not accounted for. They go to legacy/
rather than src/ because check-tokens.mjs sweeps src, and these files are
full of raw hex and unnamed breakpoints: moving one into src/ should mean
migrating it to tokens in the same change, not adding a scan exclusion.
The prettier, stylelint, and eslint ignore lists that already named these
files at their old paths now name legacy/ instead.

verify.mjs no longer reads app.js. The 102 Portuguese strings were
extracted from its translations.pt object before deletion into
.agents/snapshots/full-guide-pt.json -- a legacy capture, not a snapshot
of the Astro build, so the assertion still compares against an
independent source. The brace-matching helper's assertion is replaced by
one that rejects an empty snapshot entry, without which trimming the
snapshot would make the presence check pass vacuously. Count stays at 84.

audit-ui.mjs reads the ten pages from dist/ and resolves Astro's
base-absolute hrefs against it.

Before deleting anything, rendered-text-diff was run across all ten
routes plus both Portuguese pages: every one at parity, 0 missing and 0
extra. That comparison is not repeatable once the legacy files are gone.
computed-style-diff on /full-guide/ stays at 32 differences, so the moves
are style-neutral.

Docs updated to match: README, AGENTS.md, GATES.md, the architecture
context, the operations guide's lab instructions, and the three skills
that told you to serve the vanilla site.

Publishing is not part of this commit.

# Task 20 — Cutover and cleanup
**Agent**: `astro-architect`, **with a human watching** · **Model**: MiniMax-M3
assisting **Depends on**: all · **Worktree**:
`.agents/scripts/worktree.sh start 20 cutover`
This task touches production publishing. Do not run it unattended.
## Goal
The Astro build is what the world sees, the old files are gone, and the docs
describe reality.
## Steps
1. **Full verification** on the built site: all 10 routes, all 6 query params,
both languages, vote widget against the live API, screenshots at four widths.
2. **Delete the superseded files** — only after their replacements are proven:
`app.js`, `styles.css`, `responsive.css`, `chapters.css`, `landing.css`,
`rules/app.js`, `rules/styles.css`, `skills/app.js`, `skills/styles.css`,
`skills-review/*.js`, `skills-review/*.css`, and the ten old `index.html`
files. `git rm`, one commit, reviewable. **Keep**: `hands-on/**` (now under
`public/`), `submitted-skills/**`, `skill-reviews/**`, `docs/**`,
`vote-service/**`.
3. **Publish** via the mechanism chosen in task 01.
4. **Verify on the real host** with a cache-buster:
```bash
for r in "" full-guide summary models agents skills rules skills-review \
hands-on/starter hands-on/rules; do
curl -sS -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code} $r\n" \
"https://netcracker.pages.marcospaulo.dev.br/ai-for-dummies/$r/?v=$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)"
done
```
All ten must be 200. A stale cached 200 looks identical to success — the
`?v=` is what distinguishes them.
5. **Update the docs**: `README.md`, `docs/operations-guide.md` (build + publish
path, and it must stop claiming `pages` is "the exact published source" if
that is no longer true), `GATES.md`, and `AGENTS.md` (stack is no longer
"migration in progress").
6. **Fast-forward `pages`** per the procedure in `docs/operations-guide.md`.
## Rollback
`pages` still holds the working vanilla site until you overwrite it. If cutover
fails, reset `pages` to its previous commit — the old site returns immediately.
Note the SHA before you start:
```bash
git rev-parse origin/pages # write it down
```
## Done when
- [ ] Ten routes 200 on the real host with a fresh cache-buster
- [ ] Vote widget works end-to-end from the published origin (CORS is
origin-sensitive — `ALLOWED_ORIGIN` must still match)
- [ ] Old files deleted; `pnpm run gate` green
- [ ] Docs match reality
- [ ] Previous `pages` SHA recorded for rollback
---
## Cutover record
`origin/pages` before cutover: **`37a1e480c6bffb0bff77ad3854ec068688c17d7b`**
("Merge branch 'main' into pages"). Reset `pages` to this SHA to roll back.
### Step 1 — verification before deletion
`rendered-text-diff.mjs` compares the _rendered_ DOM of each legacy page against
its Astro replacement. Deleting the legacy files makes that comparison
impossible, so the full sweep was taken first, against the post-cutover build:
| Route | Legacy spans | Astro spans | Missing | Extra |
| ----------------- | -----------: | ----------: | ------: | ----: |
| `/` | 36 | 36 | 0 | 0 |
| `/full-guide/` | 432 | 432 | 0 | 0 |
| `/summary/` | 34 | 34 | 0 | 0 |
| `/models/` | 36 | 36 | 0 | 0 |
| `/agents/` | 39 | 39 | 0 | 0 |
| `/skills/` | 48 | 48 | 0 | 0 |
| `/rules/` | 119 | 119 | 0 | 0 |
| `/skills-review/` | 178 | 178 | 0 | 0 |
| `/full-guide/` pt | 431 | 431 | 0 | 0 |
| `/rules/` pt | 119 | 119 | 0 | 0 |
`computed-style-diff.mjs full-guide --widths 880,1050` → 32 differences,
unchanged from the task 15e result, so the file moves below are style-neutral.
### Step 2 — what could not be deleted
The brief assumed every legacy file had been superseded. Seven had not: the
Astro build still imports them, and `astro build` fails outright without them.
| File | Imported by |
| ------------------------------- | --------------------------------- |
| `styles.css` | `src/pages/full-guide.astro` |
| `full-guide/audit.css` | `src/pages/full-guide.astro` |
| `chapters.css` | `src/layouts/ChapterLayout.astro` |
| `skills/styles.css` | `src/pages/skills.astro` |
| `skills-review/styles.css` | `src/pages/skills-review.astro` |
| `skills-review/change-lens.css` | `src/pages/skills-review.astro` |
| `skills-review/app.js` | `src/pages/skills-review.astro` |
`app.js` pulls in `catalog.js`, `files.js`, and `vote.js`, which pull in
`submitted-catalog.js` and `submitted-files.js` — twelve files in all.
They were moved to `legacy/`, not into `src/`. `check-tokens.mjs` sweeps `src`,
and these files are full of raw hex and unnamed breakpoints; moving one into
`src/` should mean migrating it to tokens in the same change, never adding a
scan exclusion. `legacy/` keeps the checker's scope honest and stops the files
sitting at route-shaped paths next to the routes they no longer serve.
Deleted outright (32 files): `app.js`, `responsive.css`, `landing.css`,
`rules/app.js`, `rules/styles.css`, `skills/app.js`, all ten `index.html` files,
and the root `hands-on/` copy — byte-identical to `public/hands-on/`, which is
what the build ships.
### Step 3 — verify.mjs off the legacy source
Two assertions read `app.js` to parse `translations.pt`. The 102 strings were
extracted verbatim before deletion into `.agents/snapshots/full-guide-pt.json` —
a legacy capture, not a snapshot of the Astro build, so the check still asserts
against an independent source.
The brace-matching helper went with the file, taking one assertion. It was
replaced by a check that no snapshot entry is empty: without it, trimming the
snapshot would make the "every string is present" assertion pass vacuously.
Count stays at 84.
`audit-ui.mjs` now reads the ten pages from `dist/`, resolving Astro's
base-absolute `/ai-for-dummies/...` hrefs against `dist/`.
### Not done here
Steps 3, 4, and 6 — publish, verify on the real host, fast-forward `pages` — are
untouched. They need a human present.
