Full draft at paper/paper.md following the agreed outline: abstract,
background on the Museo Nacional competition, the form-language method
extension and its templating/validation, the two-track worked example
(Postle narrative/Midjourney vs Salingaros narrative/ChatGPT), July 23
symposium reception (including the "flavors, not solutions" critique),
drawbacks, and the proposed plan-layout future work. Reception quotes
checked against the transcript; content adapted from Salingaros' partial
process-report article where applicable. Not yet submission-ready --
needs author review and a formal reference list.

Outline covers the plan-layout extension paper: method extension with
form-language layer, worked example as two independent tracks, July 23
symposium reception, drawbacks, and next steps. Section 4 flags that
Salingaros' ChatGPT images read as more compelling/photo-realistic than
Postle's Midjourney set (cause unknown) and that the paper should draw
primarily on the Salingaros set; follow-up tracked as ecuador-gup.

Distills the two-step Salingaros prompting process (docs/salingaros-form-language-prompt.md)
that produced ref/Ecuadorian_Form_Language_Grammar.md into a reusable, placeholder-driven
prompt template for any region/site/typology, in templates/. Addresses failure modes not
present in the original worked example: unverified "search" claims, region-scale incoherence,
missing buildability/code-compliance disclaimer, and unscoped cultural-sensitivity risk around
sacred/ceremonial motifs.
Closes ecuador-vay.

Records the next methodological step - distilling Salingaros' form-language
prompts, the Two Languages for Architecture chapter, and the Ecuadorian
Form Language Grammar into a reusable, localizable prompt template.

Salingaros ran his own independent version of the pattern-language method
(narrative, ChatGPT images, process-report article) in parallel with our
narratives/ -> docs/counter-proposal.md pipeline. Records what each new
file is and how it relates to our deliverable, and removes the earlier,
superseded draft of his process-report article.

docs/illustration-prompts.md gives one fully self-contained prompt per
illustration placeholder in docs/counter-proposal.md (13 images total,
some placeholders covering two distinct scenes). Each prompt has the full
shared style guide - warm watercolor/gouache medium, fixed post-storm
lighting, the material/color palette, ornament placement rules, and a
consistent, non-stereotyped cast of people - pasted literally inline
rather than cross-referenced, so any single prompt can be copied straight
into an image generator on its own and still produce an image consistent
with the rest of the set.

docs/counter-proposal.md brings the visitor, staff, school-group, and
community narratives together in full, under one preamble, as the document
intended for publication and illustration. Strips pattern numbers, grammar
codes, and ref/ provenance citations that belonged to the drafting process,
but keeps every narrative's full length and detail rather than condensing -
this is a presentation of the work, not a summary of it.

Completes the full pipeline from CLAUDE.md's Process section: official brief
distilled to genuine human-needs facts with full National Collection detail
(ref/brief-condensed.md); named failures mined from the critique transcript
and mapped to countering patterns (ref/critique-failures.md); shared design
invariants extracted from Salingaros's contributed narrative and reconciled
against the brief (ref/project-chassis.md); and all four stakeholder
narratives drafted and cross-checked for pattern/brief/grammar fidelity and
mutual consistency (narratives/01-visitor.md through 04-community.md).

Plans the remaining CLAUDE.md pipeline (condense brief incl. National Collection
content, mine critique transcript for named failures, extract/reconcile a shared
chassis from Nikos Salingaros's contributed narrative, adapt/write 4 stakeholder
narratives, cross-check for consistency) as a tracked epic with dependencies.
