# Leon

<!-- generated by docs/scripts/sync-data.py from foundry/MANIFEST.json; edit the manifest, not this file -->

## Rulings

### L-10 · Motion by default

leonxlnx gpt-taste/soft-skill: "static is forbidden" vs design-artifact + taste v2: motion must be motivated.  
**Ruling:** motivated motion. "If you cannot articulate the reason in one sentence, drop the animation." Mandated-motion texts were cut or stripped.

## Receipts

Every row links to the upstream file at its pinned commit and to the kit's copy. Verbatim rows are the same bytes; verbatim-minus rows carry a recorded patch beside a pristine copy; distilled rows are authored from the source and say so.
