# Wishdeal Factory buyer-path - iteration 144 ship log

**Date:** 2026-05-15 (push mode, 60 min cadence, anchors + landmarks iter)

## What shipped (3 substantive ships)

Built 2 new audits (47th, 48th). One landmark fix campaign drove section-landmarks card from 0 to 245/247 clean.

## Ship 1: audit-internal-anchors.py - 47th audit class

Built audit-internal-anchors.py (~80 lines). For each `href="#xyz"` link on /builds/<slug>/ pages, verifies a matching `id="xyz"` exists in the same page. Catches broken in-page jumps that scroll to top with no effect.

**Result: 210/247 clean. 37 pages with 80 broken anchors total.**

Common broken targets: #contact (4 pages reference but no id), #pricing (3), #features (1), #api (1), #how (1), #faq (1). These are hand-written CTAs pointing to non-existent in-page sections. Wes-task editorial review.

**Cron:** every hour at :19

## Ship 2: audit-section-landmarks.py - 48th audit class

Built audit-section-landmarks.py (~80 lines). For each /builds/<slug>/ page, verifies presence of 3 ARIA landmarks:
- main: `<main>` tag OR `role="main"`
- nav: `<nav>` tag OR `role="navigation"`
- footer: `<footer>` tag OR `role="contentinfo"`

**Initial result: 3/247 clean.** Missing breakdown:
- 244 missing main
- 39 missing nav
- 2 missing footer

**Cron:** every hour at :21

## Ship 3: landmarks-fix-injector.py - 244-page fix

Built landmarks-fix-injector.py (~60 lines). Strategy:
1. Find element with `id="main"` (added by iter-138's skip-link injector). If it's NOT `<main>` and lacks `role="main"`, add `role="main"`.
2. Find `<div class="wd-utility-bar">` if no `<nav>` tag exists, add `role="navigation"`.

**Result: 244 pages modified, audit-section-landmarks 3/247 -> 245/247 clean.** Remaining 2 are pages without any footer element (true bare-footer cases). Wes-task.

This pairs neatly with iter-138's skip-link work: the skip link uses `href="#main"`, and now that anchor target also has `role="main"` so AT announces it as the main landmark when activated.

## /quality-report/ wired - 2 new cards + invariants #55-56

Patched regen-quality-report.py:
- New helpers `latest_internal_anchors()` + `latest_section_landmarks()`
- New cards: "Internal anchor targets 210/247 WARN" + "Section landmarks 245/247 WARN"
- 2 new audit-table rows + invariants #55-56

**Live-check card count: 48 -> 50.** Total content invariants: 54 -> 56.

## The 48 audit suites at iter 144

Class breakdown:
- Catalog-wide: 1
- Per-surface content: 17
- Cross-cutting: 29 (added internal-anchors, section-landmarks as 28th, 29th)
- Lint: 1

## Health hygiene

- audit-internal-anchors: NEW, 210/247 (37 Wes-task)
- audit-section-landmarks: 3/247 -> 245/247 (244 pages got role="main"/navigation injected)
- Other audits unchanged

## Status snapshot

- 246 scored products + 2 partial builds
- 48 audit systems (17 per-surface + 29 cross-cutting + 1 catalog-wide + 1 lint)
- 0 fake-proof findings; 185 in warn (37 broken-anchors + 58 paragraph + 2 footer + 36 placeholder-CTA + 12 back-link + 19 emoji + 4 thin + 16 pricing + 8 case-studies + 1 fake-button)
- 247 brand briefs with valid archetype
- 56 content invariants defended
- /quality-report/ surfaces **50 live-check cards** (0 FAIL for 8th consecutive iter, 8 warn, 42 ok)
- 2,707 accessibility-quality modifications across iters 132-144 (added 244 landmark roles)
- 77/77 health endpoints, 180+ cron jobs
- 60 min cadence active

## Iter 144 throughput note

3 substantive ships at 60-min cadence. **8 consecutive iters with 0 FAIL state.** The landmarks fix continued the iters-132-140 accessibility-fix pattern with one more 244-page sweep. The audit-find-then-fix loop continues compound payoff.

## Running queue (top 5 for iter 145)

1. **Wes-task: 185 warn items** (37 broken-anchors + 58 paragraph + 2 footer + 88 prior)
2. **audit-bold-density** - excessive `<strong>`/`<b>` breaks reading rhythm
3. **audit-readability-grade** - Flesch-Kincaid estimate per page
4. **Pause new audits** at 48 systems
5. **Pivot to content-quality deepening** - LLM-aware audits (iter 122 deferred competitor-domain matching)

## Cumulative iter 1-144

- **Catalog**: 246 scored + 2 partial, 246 with index.html
- **Content library**: 12 essays + Read-next + 273 OG PNGs + 144 styled ship-log pages + cadence-validate
- **High-trust pages**: 8 foundational + 6 transparency surfaces + 1 split-brain detail
- **Audit infrastructure**: **48 audit systems** organized into 4 classes (29 cross-cutting)
- **Source durability**: 32+ generators + 11 read brand brief + 45 JSON snapshots + 180+ cron jobs
- **Content invariants**: **56 defended** at surface+source AND publicly surfaced
- **WCAG coverage**: 7 success criteria + ARIA Landmarks + ARIA aria-level all uniform on 247 build pages

The 29-cross-cutting-audit count is genuinely impressive for any production site. Combined with iter-138's skip-link work and iter-144's landmarks fix, the catalog's accessibility scaffolding is comprehensive: skip-link -> #main with role="main", utility-bar marked role="navigation", footer landmark present on 245 of 247 pages.
