Corpus and release policy

corpus/prime-corpus.yaml is the source declaration for the Frontend Design Corpus Package. It is distinct from the generated corpus/dist/corpus.manifest.json.

The declaration owns:

• corpus namespace and version;
• compatible Model Package range;
• source sets and per-set provenance;
• per-Unit licence requirements and citations;
• assets and publication policy;
• default retrieval and evaluation configuration.

Current inventory

The publishable release contains 797 .prime sources. Each carries explicit protocol metadata and a licence accepted by the Corpus policy. Another 102 Units are retained under corpus/quarantine/ because their upstream terms are non-publishable or unresolved.

Quarantine is not deletion and it is not a passing release. Each excluded Unit keeps a recorded disposition so a later rights decision can be audited.

Build and verify

bun run corpus:build
bun run corpus:check
bun run corpus:verify

The build writes to staging and atomically replaces corpus/dist/ only after the compiler, graph checks, manifest, lock, signature, and strict runtime load pass. Never edit generated projections, indexes, manifests, locks, or signatures.
