Brief to launch,ten gates thatcan say no.

BUREAU gives a coding model the workflow of a design bureau: concept, art direction, type, motion, accessibility, and a review circuit. Every page rides the same line, and the Tribunal can send it back.

The review circuit as a line diagram: ten gates in order, then a Tribunal that passes the page to launch or sends it back for changes.

Proof

Every page gets a proof.

The detector marks a generic generated page in red pencil, with the same rules the command line runs. Flip to the reviewed version, or proof this page.

18 marks, 3 of them P0: the specimen fails. Listed from the detector's output at build time.

The specimen is a deliberately generic page written for this proof, not anyone's site. The marks are the detector's real findings on its source, drawn at the elements they name; the 21 project checks run in the command line, not here.

Argument

A model draws the average. An editor marks it.

Asked for a page with no direction, a model returns the centre of everything it has seen. That is not a prompt problem; it is a missing idea, a missing point of view and a missing review.

Concept before pixels.Three directions that truly differ, each a blend of three designers on three axes, built from a survey of five verified references. No code before an idea, an emotional target and a world.

Craft with limits you can check.Type, colour, composition and motion each have a reference and a budget; scripts measure what can be measured, from contrast and overflow to fingerprint divergence.

A review that can refuse.Ten gates in order, evidence on every line, a ten-minute jury and a Tribunal in a fresh context. Invented proof, fake sends and hidden content fail whatever the score.

Circuit

Ten gates. One Tribunal.

Each gate scores 0 to 5 against its weight; any gate under 3.5, any P0 or any missing evidence fails the release. Changing a source file makes every later gate stale.

Judge before you measure.The design review is written before anyone reads the detector's output.

The builder is the weakest reviewer.The Tribunal reads the work in a fresh context, or the run is declared degraded and cannot reach Award Track.

Ten minutes for the jury.Ten to fifteen independent reviewers vote on every gate and every Law of UX; the best round inside the time box stands.

Commands

Call it by what you need.

Type /bureau and a command, or ask in plain language; the router picks the command and loads only the references it needs.

ShowCase

Four studios that do not exist.

Each was built with the skill from a blend of three designers and given a phone composition of its own. Open the ShowCase ↗

Cerro Lumen: A night sky drawn by a shader over a dark ridge, with a lowercase monospaced headline and a scale rail at the left.

Cerro Lumen

Gerstner × Moholy-Nagy × Eames. Scroll from the dome to the galaxy, one power of ten at a time.

Mountain observatory
Maison Orvé: A serif headline in a narrow column beside a field of gold, violet and green ink threads moving through water.

Maison Orvé

Ruder × Greiman × Munari. Compose top, heart and base; watch them move through water.

Perfume house
Maré: A giant condensed wordmark wrapped in cyan and orange contour lines on a deep blue ground.

Maré

Sutnar × Wyman × Kare. Contours radiate from the name; raise the wind and the sea builds.

Ocean institute
Glifo: A heavy black and red variable-font headline over five axis sliders on proof paper.

Glifo

A. Albers × Scher × Cooper. Pull five axes by hand, weave a field of letters, open one in depth.

Install

One folder, four hosts.

Preview with a dry run, restart the agent, then call /bureau. Node 20 or later; Playwright and Figma are optional and degrade honestly.

The installer copies the skill folder into the host's skills directory and marks it, so uninstalling removes only what it placed.

Windows: installers/install.ps1. Installation guide.
