Claude Opus 5andbdeshi b574800adb delete the widows feature; line breaking is CSS
The human asked whether widow prevention belonged in the backend at all. It did
not, and it broke two rules already written down: the theme contract says the
engine decides nothing about how something looks, and ADR-0034 says authored body
text is the author's — while this inserted U+00A0 into that text.

The practical harm follows from the layer error rather than from a coding mistake.
The engine cannot see the line box, so joining the last two words is a guess that
can overflow a narrow viewport, and a reader copying the paragraph gets a
non-breaking space in their clipboard. `text-wrap: pretty` and `text-wrap: balance`
in the reference stylesheet know the line box and need no bytes in the content.

108 lines of engine deleted for one CSS declaration. The typographer stays: turning
`--` into an en dash is a text transformation no stylesheet can express, which is
exactly the distinction the new layer test draws.

Also worth recording: this took the Extensions counter from 3 back to 2. A threshold
reached by a feature that should not have existed was never a threshold.

khosra

A flat-file personal publishing engine in Go. Point the binary at a directory of Markdown and it becomes an owned, networked home for fiction, webcomics, art, and essays, in English and Bengali. The site's content lives in its own repository, not this one (ADR-0011).

Build and run

Needs Go 1.26+ and git; nothing else.

make build                      # or: go build -o khosra ./cmd/khosra
make run SITE=/path/to/site     # or: ./khosra -site /path/to/site
make test
make verify                     # everything the project enforces — green before every commit

make help lists targets. make is a convenience wrapper; go build, go test and ./scripts/verify.sh work on their own and are what the gate uses.

A site root is a directory holding content/, and optionally static/ and templates/. It lives in its own repository, not this one — the binary is pointed at it.

If you are a human: start at HARNESS.md — what the scaffolding is, how to use it, and what to decide.

If you are an agent: start at CLAUDE.md — the constitution and the read order. It is loaded for you automatically; this file is not a prerequisite and nothing here is a rule.
