UI Design Review

Registry-first artifact boundary

When .styleseed/project.json and .styleseed/artifacts/index.json exist, resolve the requested artifact ID first, then read only .styleseed/bundles/<artifact-id>.md and .styleseed/manifests/<artifact-id>.json. Never fall back to the global legacy bundle for a registry project. Legacy projects may use .styleseed/effective-rules.md only when no registry exists.

If either registry file exists, require both files and valid artifact configuration. Use only the selected artifact's bundle and manifest; an incomplete registry is not a legacy project. Only when neither registry file exists, read .styleseed/effective-rules.md and .styleseed/manifest.json. If the selected bundle is missing or stale, report the missing evidence; do not regenerate it during a review-only request or claim verified compliance. Review task fitness and grammar coherence before framework conventions. For non-web artifacts, replace React/Tailwind-only checks with the active adapter's render/export checks.
