feat: build step 2 — the home page; close Q35, Q37, Q39; Q39's answer corrected the register

Pouya's rulings and the page are one commit, not two, because they are not
separable: Q37 changed the credential label the page renders, Q39 scoped the
arbitration copy, and Q35 gave Med-Arb the row that lets the footer link stand.
Splitting them would produce a commit where the register says one thing and the
page says another.

RULINGS

Q39 — ANSWERED, and my assertion was FALSE as a universal. Pouya checked
rather than defended. Family arbitration in Ontario is gated: prescribed
training, 14h on screening for domestic violence and power imbalances, 30h of
Ontario family law for arbitrators outside the bar, 10h ongoing per two years.
claims-auditor produced that counter-example from inside the repo on 2026-08-26
and it was right. The source is now IN the repo per R14 —
docs/reference/ontario-family-arbitration-training.md, retrieved with its
provenance — and §4 states which half it establishes: the family gate directly,
the commercial half only by absence. So "commercial arbitration in Ontario
requires no licence and no designation" is recorded as Pouya's stated position,
unstamped. What disposes of the question is the scope exclusion: he does not do
family arbitration, so it is NOT OFFERED and the gate never bears on the
practice.

The false universal survived in three more live places, found by grep, not
recall: §4's NOT-NEGOTIABLE boundary bullet (the boundary paragraph breaching
its own boundary), §9's Q33 closure row, and a comment in SiteHeader.astro.

Q35 — ANSWERED, all four items, and the answer supplied a gate that was
missing. Med-Arb gets an Offerings row and stays in the footer sitemap. The six
subject-matter labels pass test 1. §4 gains "Subject-matter areas — the
publication gate": competence to accept an appointment, AND a page that frames
it as positioning without claiming history. Nothing in the nav or footer is
unrowed any more.

Q37 — ANSWERED. "Law and engineering" becomes "Legal training and engineering
practice". A degree is not a practice; the parallel was doing the implying.

Q38/R13 — the committed SVG does not close it; the walk-back went too far. It
renders faithfully BECAUSE it is the raster. R13 stays open.

R1 — surfaced and acknowledged; the interim licensure framing is now carried by
a shipped page rather than a spec, which raises the stakes.

BUILD STEP 2

Seven of docs/01's eight home sections, six new components, zero JavaScript.
Section 7 (Latest insights) ships at step 7 with the collection it lists —
recorded in docs/01 and in the page, not just here. Four credential slots, not
three: §4's paired-disclosure condition requires the Q.Arb stage on any page
that offers arbitration. No booking link (R6). The masthead tagline is
suppressed on / (it duplicated the hero eyebrow). The step-1 proof sheet is
deleted, and five live references to it were found by grep.

WHAT THE REVIEWS FOUND — 24 findings across the two passes

claims-auditor FAILED it on ten, every one implication or scope rather than
fabrication, which is where D13 says the risk lives. The four that mattered:
"I mediate and arbitrate" asserted a track record §4 does not hold for
arbitration; the JSON-LD asserted arbitration twice and stated the stage
nowhere (a crawler-only claim is still a claim); "at one published rate with
preparation time included" misdescribed money against docs/07's two day rates
and capped prep allowance; and "Law and engineering are not blended here" was
Q37's struck parallel relocated into prose one day after Pouya struck it.
It also found the Canadian Tax Foundation missing from §9 Q8 — a stale second
copy of a fact that would have bitten at step 3.

adversarial-reviewer found fourteen, three blocking. The first was
class="section-head" on <SectionHeading> never matching — the parent-cannot-
style-a-child defect for the FOURTH time, written into a diff where I had just
added fresh warnings about it to two other components. Measured: 0px margin,
0px gap, headings over the card edges, with astro check and eslint both clean.
I had looked at a screenshot of that section and passed over it. Fixed with a
page-owned wrapper (48px, measured) and the prop is deleted from six components
so it is now a build error. Also: the credential row was never "two up on a
phone" and its comment said it was; PROCESS was hardcoded in the page against
the reason written in site.ts; 83px of residual overflow at a 200% default font
size, now 3px.

Seven more I found myself first, including <Picture widths> declaring the
untouched 1600px master as the <img src> fallback (254,626 B for a 476px slot,
and the build log said "before: 349kB" either way), and a prop named `as`
silently turning off type-checking for a whole component.

VERIFICATION — run, not asserted. Full figures in AGENTS.md entry (w).

npx tsc 6.0.3 · check 0/0/0 · lint clean · build clean · audit 0
1 <script> and it is JSON-LD; non-JSON-LD scripts 0; no JS bundle; identical
page with script execution disabled (444 nodes, 6,578 chars)
Phase 5 minifier check: no `animation` shorthand beside animation-timeline
overflow 0 at 14 widths, AND every mark measured at 1.5654-1.5657 vs 1.5657
one h1, no heading skips, focus order == DOM order across 44 focusables
31 painted contrast pairs at 3 widths, 0 failures
72/72 hit-test points across 8 cards resolve to the card's link
print 0 hidden, reduced-motion 0 hidden
Lighthouse NOT RUN — tool unavailable until step 7 (R11)
HTML validator NOT RUN, and 4 of 12 srcsets carry a duplicate 1x descriptor

Opened for Pouya: Q40 (one OG image for nineteen pages), Q41 (does Q37 reach
prose; may the comparative be restored; what LAT pre-hearing mediation means),
Q42 (the four "also offered" processes have no row), Q43 (the process timings
are published commitments with no row).

# Reference — Ontario's training requirements for family arbitrators
**Why this file exists.** `AGENTS.md` §4 Offerings rests on a proposition about
what Ontario law does and does not gate. R14: *anything a spec makes a claim
about must be reachable from the repository* — a claim whose source lives only
at a URL is one a reviewer can be asked to trust rather than check. This is the
extract, with its provenance and the command that produced it.
It is **not** legal advice and it is not a substitute for the instruments
themselves. It records what one government page said on one day.

## Provenance
| | |
|---|---|
| Source | `https://www.ontario.ca/page/training-family-arbitrators` |
| Retrieved | **2026-08-27** |
| Method | `WebFetch` — page converted to markdown, then queried for verbatim requirements, hour figures, the lawyer / non-lawyer distinction, ongoing-training period, and every statute or regulation named |
| Retrieved by | Claude Code, on Pouya's instruction of 2026-08-27 (Q39) |
| Cited by Pouya | Yes — this is the source named in his Q39 ruling, with the same three hour figures |
**Re-derive it:** fetch the URL and read it. If the page has changed, record the
change here rather than editing the extract — a stale extract with a date is
useful; a silently updated one is not.

## What the page states
Quoted as retrieved. Where the page's own wording is reproduced it is in
quotation marks.
**Screening for domestic violence and power imbalances.** "at least 14 hours
(within one week) to learn about screening parties for domestic violence and
power imbalances".
**Ontario family law — non-lawyers only.** "All family law arbitrators who are
not a part of the Ontario Bar, or another Canadian bar, must complete 30 hours
of training about Ontario family law." The page adds that "You do not need to
complete this training all at once."
**Members of the Ontario Bar.** No hour figure. The page states instead that
"you should ensure you are familiar with family law to fulfil your professional
obligation to provide services competently."
**Ongoing training.** "10 hours over any two-year period. Five of these hours
must be related to domestic violence or power imbalance issues".
**Statute named on the page.** *Arbitration Act, 1991*. **No section number and
no regulation (`O. Reg.`) number appears on the page.**
---
## What the page does NOT state — and this half matters more
**It says nothing about commercial arbitration.** Commercial arbitration is
neither mentioned nor excluded. The page does not state which arbitrations the
requirements apply to beyond describing them as family arbitration.
So the source establishes the **family** half of §4's scoped proposition
directly, and the **commercial** half only by *absence* — a page about family
arbitrators is not authority for what commercial arbitrators need. §4 records
the commercial half as **Pouya's stated position**, attributed to him and
deliberately unstamped, for exactly that reason.
**Nothing on the site turns on the gated activity.** Pouya has confirmed he does
not accept family arbitration under the *Family Law Act* (§4 Offerings, scope
exclusion). The requirements above are recorded because the register reasoned
from a false universal for a day and must not do so again — not because the
practice sits anywhere near them.
**Do not upgrade this file into an authority it is not.** If a stronger source
is ever wanted — the *Family Law Act* provisions and the regulation made under
it — fetch and extract those, name them by number, and date them. Do not write
a section number from memory.
