Six token-gap markers were closed by pointing the value at a palette token that does not match it. Their own comments said so -- "between --blue and --accent", "lighter than --muted on dark bg", "no token matches" -- and were removed along with the values: #5b7098 -> var(--accent) #7c78a8, blue-grey to purple #9eb0bb -> var(--muted) #697b89, light-on-dark to dark-on-light #b8c8d2 -> var(--line) #d8dee2 #c9d5dc -> var(--line) #d8dee2 #eceaf5 -> var(--paper) #f5f4f1, violet-tinted to warm #f0eef8 -> var(--paper) #f5f4f1 All six are text or surfaces on --ink and --accent, where the light-background palette is the wrong family: --muted is illegible on --ink. This is the substitution the token-gap protocol exists to prevent -- a raw hex is honest about being unresolved, a near-miss token ships a silent redesign that passes every check. Adds six exact on-dark tokens and points the six declarations at them. design-system-keeper owns tokens.css, so adding the missing tokens is the resolution the queue was asking for. Also makes the four overlay tokens exact. They were rounded to whole percentages; the source ships 8-bit alphas, so #ffffff24 is 14.1176%, not 14%. The names stay rounded, the values do not. Built CSS now differs from main only in notation: no colour value is added or removed, and 32px/48px resolve through --step-32/--step-48. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
AI For Dummies
A lightweight, presentation-style field guide to AI-assisted engineering.
It explains how to combine a strong planning/review model with faster workers,
reusable skills, subagent handoffs, Git worktrees, and explicit verification. An
interactive field kit compares common behavior skills such as ponytail-lite,
caveman, unlazy, research, debugging, and review. The skill-forge workflow
covers discovery, triggers, package anatomy, progressive instructions,
structural validation, and behavioral iteration. The hands-on lab provides a
tiny starter project and copy-ready baseline and skill-enabled prompts for a
short side-by-side exercise. An interactive model gearbox separates capability
tier from reasoning effort across OpenAI, Claude, and Gemini, and every featured
skill links to a pinned source with an approval-first installation prompt.

Publishing
The Gitea instance has a Pages Server configured to publish a repository’s
pages branch under pages.marcospaulo.dev.br. The intended site address is:
https://netcracker.pages.marcospaulo.dev.br/ai-for-dummies/
If the URL is not available yet, verify that the pages branch exists and that
the repository’s pages branch exists. Gitea itself does not provide a built-in
Pages server; this setup uses the instance’s separate Pages Server and Actions
deployment path.
For the complete authoring, verification, publication, rollback, worktree, and skill workflow, see docs/operations-guide.md.
Reader voting on the skills-review desk
skills-review/ is static, so its "which draft would you ship?" vote widget
calls a separate stateful service — vote-service/, a small Go API on its own
pod, one vote per visitor enforced server-side by IP (a MAC address is never
visible to a server across the internet, so it cannot be used). See
vote-service/README.md for the API, the anti-abuse
design, and the build/push/deploy steps; skills-review/index.html sets
window.SKILLS_REVIEW_VOTE_API to point at it once deployed.
Research
See docs/references/README.md for official Claude, Codex, and Git documentation. The additional reading path bundles 12 verified articles and guides, including Medium and practitioner sources. See model routing for current provider controls and verified skill sources for commit-pinned provenance.
Rules and enforcement case study
Open /rules/ for a concise walkthrough grounded in the netcracker/interview
repository. It shows how AGENTS.md, project-local skills, machine-readable
repo ledgers, a UI contract ratchet, lint-staged, Husky, commitlint, specialist
verifier agents, and PR review reinforce one another. Every example links to its
source file in Gitea, and the page includes a copy-ready prompt for mapping the
same layers in another repository.
The implementation patterns are also packaged as project-local skills in
skills/. Use editorial-playbook when adding chapters or
sections, and rules-case-study when turning repository controls into a
source-linked teaching page.
