# HyperTwist Phase 6R-AS qbr bundled-font review boundary preparation packet

Created on `2026-05-31`

## Status

- first-party HyperTwist packet
- bounded permissive `Phase 6R-AS` preparation/control slice

## Purpose

This packet freezes one narrower retained widening above the already landed
`Phase 6R-AK` locale-routing overlay and `Phase 6R-AN` locale-presentation
posture.

The intended kept value is:

- a first-party font-review profile for the retained `qbr` locale set
- per-locale routing to explicit review descriptors
- active shell and solve-guidance visibility for the chosen review descriptor
- explicit visibility that bundled donor-font shipping still stays deferred

This packet does not open:

- bundled-font redistribution
- donor asset shipping
- direct standalone multilingual solve-shell rendering
- generic text or localization platform ownership
- broader recognition or explanation-shell displacement

## Current authority basis

This preparation packet stands on:

- `docs/REPO_LICENSE_TRACKING.md`
- `docs/v6_5_deep_manual_pack/HyperTwist/ROADMAP.md`
- `docs/arch/HYPERTWIST_PHASE6R_AN_QBR_MULTILINGUAL_SOLVE_SHELL_PRESENTATION_POSTURE_IMPLEMENTATION_PACKET_2026-05-31.md`
- `C:\Workspaces\HyperTwist\mirrors\permissive\kkoomen\qbr\README.md`
- `C:\Workspaces\HyperTwist\mirrors\permissive\kkoomen\qbr\src\constants.py`
- `C:\Workspaces\HyperTwist\mirrors\permissive\kkoomen\qbr\src\helpers.py`
- `C:\Workspaces\HyperTwist\mirrors\permissive\kkoomen\qbr\src\assets\arial-unicode-ms.ttf`

## Why this slice is justified

The already landed locale-routing and locale-presentation seams preserve locale
identity, text direction, and shaping posture, but they do not yet expose a
clean first-party contract for reviewing the donor-bundled font boundary per
locale family.

The donor exposes a narrow remaining layer:

- a bundled multilingual font asset that is visibly present in the checked row
- locale families that imply distinct script-coverage and shaping needs
- a licensing/provenance boundary that should stay explicit before any shipping
  decision is made

So the correct next retained move is not donor-font shipping and not standalone
multilingual shell ownership. It is the narrower first-party review boundary
that keeps per-locale font-review truth visible while preserving the shipping
defer line.

## Acceptance shape

The bounded `Phase 6R-AS` slice may land:

- locale-bound font-review descriptor ids in the live recognition contracts
- review-profile ids and definitions for the bounded qbr shell and
  solve-explanation lane
- active shell-state and solve-guidance-state exposure for the chosen review
  descriptor
- focused automation for:
  - locale-to-review-descriptor routing
  - review-profile alignment across shell and solve-guidance state
  - explicit donor-font defer visibility

The slice must keep these exclusions explicit:

- no donor font asset incorporation or shipping
- no standalone multilingual renderer
- no generalized asset-download or licensing workflow platform

## Queue effect

If this packet lands, it consumes the current `Phase 6R-AS` widening slice.

The next clean move after landing should be:

- no new qbr widening by default unless a real font-safe shipping path or a
  first-party standalone multilingual rendering gap is later proven
