# Doppler regeneration — 2026-10-08

This is a new selected implementation and implementer review, not user acceptance. The original `DECISIONS.md` is preserved byte for byte; its accepted history describes the previous campaign. Brand, blends, price and commercial content remain fictional, and the local mix never sends an order or payment.

## Page and direction

The known job remains product recognition → selected flavor and named alternatives → editable six-pack. The composition is rebuilt around a printed cover, one physical product stage, an explanatory flavor catalog, a darker sensory beat and a quieter builder. This is Focused work on a known campaign, with intensive whole-page proof; it does not invent a new product journey.

Warm paper/dark ink hold the reading layer. The oversized wordmark gives the opening a decisive mass; a bold Manrope proposition and bounded Georgia italic inflection establish a second, human-scale voice. Flavor color belongs to the selected object and selection, rather than tinting every surface. The curved stage and open wave geometry contrast with flat controls and rules. The new rhythm deliberately differs from the old pressure/type collision.

The strongest alternative is the former more theatrical full-color pressure field. It carries carbonation and brand energy strongly, but its large competing type/wave masses leave less calm space around the offer and selected object. The new direction spends that attention on product/type balance. The page copy also changes, so before/after is a whole-direction comparison, not an isolated causal proof of a spacing or palette change. Neither direction becomes a universal template.

## Motion and the user-found detail failure

The first rebuild retained rotation/fizz but lost expressive establishment. User feedback reopened that weakness. Current choreography reveals the wordmark, staggers the proposition and releases the product into its settled pose. Flavor transitions connect label, stage color and wave response; pointer response stays with the scene; visible lower-section content receives limited movement. Motion is finite, interruptible and separate from the authored reduced/static equivalent.

The user then identified a white lid artifact that the implementer had missed. The previous flat lid lived outside the 3D cylinder and its apparent attachment check could pass while the material join looked wrong. The correction places one top plane inside the same rigid object, with its rotation and projection, and removes the independently placed overlay. This reopens visual acceptance of the product until native joint details, representative rotation phases and collateral composition are inspected. A one-layer count or bounding-box PASS cannot certify material quality.

The portable plan now requires both whole composition and owner/detail crops. The repository injection probe checks a detached plane, extra painted layer, broken label mask, shrunken icon host and covered flavor label, restoring each before a clean capture. These targeted construction/visibility checks do not claim to find every possible visual artifact.

Further detail review rejected a first rigid-plane repair: its top was occluded at the old perspective angle, and a later visible plane exposed a diameter mismatch. The mesh builder had used the rotated screen-space bounding box while the lid used local CSS dimensions. The final construction derives radius/label height from local resolved CSS size and uses a coherent camera/object tilt. The probe additionally checks local cylinder radius and actual metallic paint survival. The rejected crop remains in review history; structural correctness alone did not close this repair.

## Custom control family

Five original editable SVG masks replace font-dependent control marks: open diagonal arrow, plus, minus, menu and close. They preserve familiar action meaning. CTA/navigation/close slots use 18 px; quantity slots use 16 px. The 24-unit construction uses a common 2-unit stroke, open negative spaces and restrained round terminals, with native owner/detail review rather than an enlarged drawing-sheet claim. Labels, target boxes, state and focus stay with the controls. Exact metadata/source/license bindings live beside the glyphs. No library package is added.

## Secondary surfaces

The narrow navigation is a compact paper surface anchored to its trigger: bounded width, 48 px rows, quiet separators, a readable type hierarchy and an inner focus treatment. Resizing repositions it without resetting the focused item. The completed pack opens a native confirmation dialog with a title, aligned flavor/quantity rows, total and one continuation. Its paper, edge, backdrop and finite entry motion belong to the campaign's material language. At 320 × 568 and 200% text the surface scrolls, retaining the close and continuation actions. Escape restores the original submit focus and scroll position; the local demo sends no order. Whole compositions and exact viewport-parent crops were inspected for both surfaces, including keyboard focus.

## Proof and boundaries

`evals/doppler-regeneration/PLAN.v3.json` declares 15 representative cases, viewport/DPR, theme/input, reduced motion and detail targets. `verified/receipt.json`, `SYSTEM.v3.json`, `ATTENTION.v3.json` and `REVIEW.v3.json` distinguish source integrity, measured results, implementer visual judgment and UNCONFIRMED user acceptance. Earlier revisions and rejected repairs remain history. The paired integrity control records old PASS versus current refusal for the demonstrated bypasses. Canonical browser smoke remains responsible for navigation, drag/keyboard rotation, six-pack validation/confirmation, assets, overflow, focus and finite/reduced motion.

The benchmark is authored by the same implementer who updates the skill. It is neither a blind model comparison nor a representative-user icon-recognition study. Native scrollbar affordances, independent aesthetic acceptance and broad generation-quality generalization remain outside this proof. Document-font inspection does not attest the font face inside SVG packaging images. See the evaluation README for executed checks and exact retained artifacts.
