core.md claimed to be the packages/core reference but opened on repo-wide type patterns and never documented the ownership vocabulary: AgentHandle, CreateAgentOptions, ResumeAgentOptions, and AgentFactory were TYPE_LINK_EXEMPTIONS pointing at a package README, invisible to the folder that calls itself the type reference. The page now reads spine map -> creation and ownership (AgentHandle pasted; the options and factory summarized with links into the generated registry section) -> the Agent handle (AgentStatus, AgentOptions, SteeringOutcome, SteeringReceipt, and SettleReason now pasted; the one settlement prose wall split by topic; delivery vocabulary ordered as a message travels) -> initiator -> interception -> a Sessions summary -> the ToolDefinition pointer -> an explicitly framed repo-wide patterns tail (the ...Map pattern, branded ids). The duplicate SessionEvent paste is gone -- session.md owns it and LINK_MAP follows -- the four ownership types moved from TYPE_LINK_EXEMPTIONS into LINK_MAP -> core.md, and three dead LINK_MAP entries (ContinuationDecision, ContinuationStop, HookContext) no longer name types absent from the source tree. The "what this page owns" meta-section folds into the intro.
The subsystems README index silently lost tasks.md and session-reference.md on both language sides during a base absorption; the rows are restored and scripts/project-doc-site.spec.ts now fails when any page misses either side of the index (proven red on a removed row). tools.md links ToolSchema to its llm-streaming.md declaration instead of calling it core; subagent.md links AgentHandle and CreateAgentOptions.seed to the new section. A new Agent Note records the package-anchored page-scoping decision; the 2026-06-20 catalog note marks its spine-vs-seam rule superseded as the page-scoping rule while keeping the type-equiv mechanism current, and docs/AGENTS.md cites the new note.
core.md read as a type grab-bag: LLM wire vocabulary up front, the agent/loop story buried, and no correspondence to packages/core. It now opens on the packages/core control spine — the package-by-package loop map with a Page column into session/system-prompt/tools/scope — and keeps only what the spine group declares plus the repo-wide patterns: the Agent handle with its delivery/cancellation/interception contracts, the SessionEvent envelope, branded ids, the …Map pattern. The conversation vocabulary (Message/ContentBlock, the model request, adapters — 17 type-equiv blocks) moves to llm-streaming.md, which now declares packages/llm end-to-end; the duplicate ContentBlockMap paste near its seam section folds into the moved section, and the manifest, LINK_MAP, README table rows, website label (Core data structures → Core), and inbound anchors follow.
Every packages/<group>/README pair is now a thin front door in one shape: a why-first intro (bash's seam-pattern-first paragraph rewritten as 'shell execution for the agent'), the package table, and a closing pointer to the owning docs/subsystems page — the bash-style table stays the load-bearing middle. Load-bearing trailing paragraphs relocate rather than vanish: the fs no-timeout rationale becomes a filesystem.md section (both languages), session's four sectioned tables merge into one 12-row table, examples' legacy-bin H2 collapses to a pointer at jsonrpc-demo's README, and design rationale that already lives in an Agent Note or subsystem page is now linked instead of restated. All 40 pair records re-recorded.
core.md doubled as the folder index: its intro claimed "this folder catalogs the data structures" and carried the 38-row page table, wording that predates the one-page-per-subsystem shape where every page also carries its generated Cordis surface. The folder index now lives in docs/subsystems/README.md (page table plus the type-equiv note), and core.md is one subsystem page among siblings: the spine vocabulary. Structural referents move with it: the docs/AGENTS.md tier table and update rule, development.md's type-equiv pointer, the dsh-code-review skill, the two owning catalog Agent Notes, and website/docs.ts (README projects as reference/subsystems/index.md and takes the docs/subsystems folder alias; sidebar orders shift by one). Remaining "data-structure catalog" / "sub-page" phrasing in active notes and READMEs is reworded to subsystem-page terms in both languages; touched pairs re-recorded; translation-prompt snapshot re-recorded (its example embeds development.md).
