Validator hard gates

  • • No output on any failure — delivery is atomic
  • • Schema limits need restructuring, not value swaps
  • • Fan-out edges: label at most one; cards carry the rest

Why it beats Mermaid

  • • Mermaid renders broken layouts; Archify refuses them
  • • Deterministic: same IR in, same HTML out
  • • Interactive artifact survives outside chat
