One pipeline, or four costumes for the same defect

Summary

Every rendering problem on this site turned out to be the same problem: a capability that already existed, disconnected from the thing that needed it.

Four complaints came in at once: the site was missing data, the settings screen was a mess, the engine could not render flexibly, and the data was not graph-shaped.

They were one defect wearing four costumes. The design system derived a hundred tokens from eight primitives that nothing could drive. The render engine read a spec that routing made unreachable. The store resolved a link graph the builder never asked for. In each case the capability was built, tested, and wired to nothing.

This note exists to prove a narrower point: it is a brand-new OKF kind. Its routing, schema, layout spec, URL, JSON-LD identity, collection index and graph node were all added without a single line of Rust. If that ever stops being true, the routing table has quietly stopped being the routing table.
