# Concepts

Read current stage work and the concept procedure only. Art Director commits a minimal seed and candidate-plan-v2 before independent Sketch source. Default two concepts, three for a named uncertainty: one representative surface, same real content/state/views, different structural/density/type relationships. The rest of Frame scope stays required.

Use schema candidate-content/plan/set and candidate plan/check/packet. Capture actual previews through the native measurement path; final production floors do not gate provisional studies. Present every preview ID and tradeoff. Interactive runs wait for ONE real user choice through candidate select; bare continue selects nothing. Explicit autonomy requires fresh isolated Eye and a real grant, never a model-authored flag.

Run candidate check --current. Stale consumed inputs return to the same checkpoint. Missing viable evidence remains honest debt, not approval or a universal first-render blocker. Then dispatch selected type/system work; no second tournament.
