bvandeusenandClaude Opus 5 5593f7ce17 feat(brand): replace the M mark with the traced bard-hat logo
test-web / test (push) Successful in 44s
android / Build + lint + test (push) Successful in 5m9s
The mark is now a feathered hat with an arc of eighth notes, traced from
the operator's reference artwork at 99.74% IoU. The hat takes the text
colour and the note arc holds the accent — the same construction the M
used, and for the same reason: parchment on a light surface is invisible,
so the silhouette has to flip with its background while the accent stays
constant.

This reverses the subject-neutrality argument recorded in Minstrel's
design system, which held that depicting a bard would tell a new user the
app is for renaissance-faire music and had twice rejected a hat. The
operator commissioned this artwork and chose it with that objection on the
table; the record is updated rather than silently contradicted.

Both accent-filled alternatives were measured and rejected: #4A6B5C is
3.04:1 on obsidian and 2.80:1 on the raised iron, so an accent hat drops
under the 3:1 graphics floor as soon as it sits on a card.

tools/gen-brand-assets.py is the single source for the four copies, which
cannot share a file because each needs a different colour mechanism —
currentColor inlined, a prefers-color-scheme swap in the favicon, literal
fills in mark.svg, flat pixels in the rasters. Hand-copying 20KB of path
data four ways is how a silhouette change lands in three of them.

Two notes on the trace, both non-obvious: it runs on the original
antialiased greyscale rather than a binary mask, because tracing a
supersampled mask scores ~100% IoU by reproducing the pixel staircase
exactly — a perfect number for jagged art at 120KB of path, versus 99.74%
at 20KB. And potrace reads PBM where bit 1 is black, so the ink mask is
inverted going in; backwards, it traces the background and still emits a
plausible-looking SVG.

The header lockup moves 20px → 28px: the hat carries far more detail than
the M and does not resolve below ~32px. The 16px browser-tab favicon is
still a blob at that size and is not addressed here.

bvandeusenandClaude Opus 4.7 750bc69204 chore(deps): Tier A cross-ecosystem patch/minor sweep
No expected behavior changes; CI verifies. Tracked in Fable #463
under audit note #460.

Flutter (pubspec.yaml):
- flutter_secure_storage ^10.1.0 → ^10.2.0
- mocktail ^1.0.4 → ^1.0.5

Web (package.json + package-lock.json):
- @sveltejs/adapter-static ^3.0.6 → ^3.0.10
- @types/node ^25.6.0 → ^25.9.1
- autoprefixer ^10.4.20 → ^10.5.0
- postcss ^8.4.49 → ^8.5.15
- svelte-check ^4.0.5 → ^4.4.8

Tools (package.json + package-lock.json):
- sharp ^0.33.5 → ^0.34.5 (the lockfile diff is large because
  sharp ships pre-built binaries for many platform/arch combos;
  each version revs all those entries)
