 ## Goals
 
-1. **Valid by construction** — every value passes the check its real consumer
+1. **The best fake-data tool available, and used because it is** — a developer
+   choosing a seed-data library or CLI, in any language, should find this the one
+   worth switching to, and every goal below it is what that costs. Merit is only
+   half the goal: once the grammar, the data and the CLI are complete and stable,
+   it ships where those developers install from and is announced where they read.
+2. **Understanding the code is part of the product** — it is a compiler with static
+   fences behind a small API, it will grow, and the people who extend it will not be
+   the people who wrote it. So reading cost is judged alongside behaviour: reaching
+   the unit behind a symptom without asking a person, changing one piece without
+   holding the rest, names that tell the truth, and a file that stands with no second
+   document open beside it. A simulated reader panel scores those four, the score is a
+   ratchet no release lowers, and [`AGENTS.md`](AGENTS.md) says what each pull request
+   owes it.
+3. **Valid by construction** — every value passes the check its real consumer
    applies; facts that belong together come from one draw, within a value and
    across categories.
-2. **Text means what it says** — a format renders as written; only `{…}` varies,
+4. **Text means what it says** — a format renders as written; only `{…}` varies,

    the inline template; on a loaded generator `Fake` fails only for an unknown

     does yet a small hand-written set ships and [`todo.md`](todo.md) carries the
     step that replaces it. Only non-factual copy stays authored. A sourced table

+### Comprehension, until the panel scores 7.0
+
+Nothing else ships while the score is under 7.0 — no feature, no category, no data —
+bar a security fix and a dependency bump, per README goal 2. This section is one
+round, replayed: the `comprehension-panel` skill's nine-seat findings run at depth 1,
+a PR per item it names, then the run again, until the score passes. The run is the
+nine-seat one: the round is meant to buy architectural change, and the four-seat
+scoring run names too little to steer one. A fresh run replaces the items below.
+
+Scores, newest last: 5.9 on 2026-09-20 (Navigation 7.0, Locality 5.2, Shape 5.9,
+Self-sufficiency 5.7), eight of nine seats capped by Locality or Self-sufficiency, all
+nine naming `hold.go`, `draw.go` and `family.go` first for reading cost: 1,138 lines in
+which each file carries both a load-time fence and render-time machinery, so no file
+name says whether a unit runs at `New` or at `Fake`.
+
+This round, in order:
+
+- Define the fence vocabulary where a reader of the code meets it: fence, hold, pin,
+  draw, draw group, expansion against render, family, whole. It exists only across five
+  README sections today, and every reader paid for it before the three files read at all.
+- Say on the `template` struct which pass fills which field, and that `compileFormat`
+  runs a second time once `linkTemplateRefs` binds the references: nine of its fields

 - Decide whether `misc.browser` becomes a parent of `misc.useragent`, so
