bdeshi f48cf018d4 name the layer, not only the primitive
The constitution asks which primitive a feature is. It never asked *where* the
feature belongs, and that let a whole feature get built at the wrong layer.

Four layers, outermost wins: content on disk, engine (facts only the engine can
produce), theme (markup), browser (CSS, then JS). Two rules fall out — the engine
never edits authored text to change how it looks, and a feature needing no engine
fact is not an engine feature. architecture.md carries the table and the test;
CLAUDE.md carries the one-line version, since it is the file always loaded.

The example is named in the docs on purpose. A rule with a scar attached is one an
agent can apply; a rule stated in the abstract gets reasoned around.

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.
