In `@archify/SKILL.md`:
- Line 21: Update the viewBox guidance in the artifact-authoring instructions to
require the full ratio bound: 2.0 ≤ width/height ≤ 4.0, preserving the existing
first-screen layout contract.
- Line 21: Update the “Viewport height budget” reference in the authoring
guidance around the artifact-first instruction to point to the existing desktop
viewport and overflow contract in delivery-contract.md, or add that named
section to authoring-contract.md if the guidance must remain local; ensure the
referenced guidance is reachable and matches the required first-screen budget.

| 1. Choose `architecture`, `workflow`, `sequence`, `dataflow`, or `lifecycle` from the question. | ||
| 2. Read one matching schema in `schemas/`, `schemas/common.schema.json`, and one matching JSON example in `examples/`. Read only those files. Fresh authorship means new stable IDs, domain wording, and layout; use the example for field shape, not facts. New workflow sources use `schema_version: 2` and its readable layout contract; keep `schema_version: 1` only when preserving an existing workflow's fixed geometry. When real product identity matters, query `node bin/archify.mjs brands "<name>" --json`; read `references/brand-marks.md` only for an unknown brand with a user-provided URL. | ||
| 3. Artifact first: the next tool action must write the candidate. Write the candidate before inspecting renderer internals. Do not plan exact coordinates in prose. Start with one clear main path, short side branches, sparse labels, and at most 12 primary nodes. Set `meta.quality_profile` to `"showcase"` unless the user explicitly requests a dense `standard` map. Start with automatic routes and labels. Do not add `via`, `channelX`, `channelY`, or `labelAt` before a diagnostic calls for one; apply at most one diagnosed geometry control per repair. | ||

Start with one clear main path, short side branches, sparse labels, and at most 12 primary nodes. When a real enterprise topology genuinely needs more, group the extras into boundaries as horizontal layer bands of ≤5 nodes each instead of deleting real components. Set `meta.quality_profile` to `"showcase"` unless the user explicitly requests a dense `standard` map. Start with automatic routes and labels. Do not add `via`, `channelX`, `channelY`, or `labelAt` before a diagnostic calls for one; apply at most one diagnosed geometry control per repair. Layout budget: `validate` does not estimate page overflow; author the viewBox with width/height ratio ≥ 2.0 and ≤4 short card items so the 1440×900 first-screen pass holds — see the Viewport height budget section in `references/authoring-contract.md`. |

Keep the full viewBox ratio bound.
Line 21 states only width/height ratio ≥ 2.0. The authoring contract requires a ratio between 2.0 and 4.0. Without the upper bound, this guidance permits excessively wide viewBoxes and weakens the first-screen layout contract. State the rule as 2.0 ≤ width/height ≤ 4.0.
As per path instructions, archify/** must preserve the documented first-screen layout contract.

Point to an existing viewport-budget section.
Line 21 references the “Viewport height budget” section in archify/references/authoring-contract.md. The supplied cross-file context does not contain that section. The detailed desktop viewport and overflow contract is in archify/references/delivery-contract.md. Update the pointer or add the named section so fast-path authors can reach the required guidance.
As per path instructions, archify/** requires stable authoring and delivery references.

Problem and value
Current-main trigger: two things in step 3 of the fast authoring path force an agent to learn by failure. (1) "at most 12 primary nodes" offers no legitimate path above 12 — enterprise architecture diagrams legitimately need more (a current real diagram: 14 components, 15 relationships, 4 boundary regions, passes showcase 0/0 and fits all four viewports), and the hard-sounding cap pushes an agent toward deleting real components or splitting one truthful diagram. (2) There is no viewport-budget hint at authoring time;
validatedoes not estimate page overflow, so coordinates are designed blind and overflow surfaces only afterdeliver+visual-check, when the spec is already frozen.Intended outcome: the authoring agent budgets the viewBox from the start and groups >12-node topologies instead of amputating them.
Approach: extend step 3 by one sentence each — a pointer to the "Viewport height budget" section in
references/authoring-contract.md(added by companion PR, referenced by section name only, so no hard dependency) and the layer-band grouping path for >12 nodes. Narrow documentation correction; no planning issue needed per CONTRIBUTING.Stability impact
