Follows the identity sweep in agent-compose 73194ce, which re-derived every personality's emblem, motif, geometry, and verbs from its own SKILL.md doctrine.

Why this is structural, not cosmetic

playful and imaginative were both radial arrangements, and they are the two halves of the frontend meld. That is exactly the collision docs/overlay.md documents as converting the signature into the bond and making two seats indistinguishable.

aterm shipped nine arrangements for ten personalities, so one meld was guaranteed to collide until the vocabulary grew by one. With scattered added, all ten arrangements are distinct and the rule is satisfied by the data rather than only written down.

What it adds

  • scattered — a lattice with a hole in it, not a random draw, because the mask has to stay deterministic across hosts.
  • dabs — inks a filled round, tightening toward the centre.

playful reads scattered-dabs, which is the artist palette it now carries.

Verification

Rendered side by side, the frontend meld is now visibly two different creatures:

🎨 playful    🌈 imaginative

Fixtures are recaptured from the live roster, and frontend joins the round-trip cases as the only seat exercising the new arrangement.

just aterm-test, just aterm-lint, ATERM_LIVE_ROSTER=1 just aterm-contract, and pre-commit run --all-files all pass.

agent-compose re-derived the identity primitives from each personality's
own doctrine. `playful` moved off the ferris wheel to an artist palette,
and off `radial-spokes` to `scattered-dabs`.

That geometry mattered structurally, not only aesthetically. `playful` and
`imaginative` were both `radial` and are melded into frontend, which is
the collision docs/overlay.md names as making two seats indistinguishable.
Nine arrangements covered ten personalities, so one meld had to collide
until the vocabulary grew by one. It now has ten distinct arrangements.

`scattered` is a lattice with a hole in it rather than a random draw,
because the mask has to stay deterministic. `dabs` inks a filled round,
tightening toward the centre.

Fixtures are recaptured, and frontend joins the round-trip cases as the
only seat exercising the new arrangement.
