igneum/site/dev-fee.html
igneum-labs 7cf223fa2b Site, 7 October 2026 evening (the project lead's four asks through main, one landing): (1) the bar's nav to the right: the mark and the devnet pill on the left, Mine, Network, Learn and the controls right-aligned with the same gaps and sizes, each open panel anchored under its button (the script sets --panel-left) and a panel that would run past the container aligned to its button's right edge, the phone sheet unchanged; (2) no lateral scroll: tools/ci/scroll-width-check.mjs on the gate (scrollWidth equals clientWidth on every route at 390, 768, 1024, 1280 and 1440 in both themes; only a table, code or diagram scrolls inside its own overflow-x box; self-test with a 100vw plus 20 px fixture known-failed first); (3) LG-5, the launch text: the front page leads with the three wants (hardware that stays useful, income without a cliff, a fair supply) and the live network with finality is the second screen; the litepaper's regulatory note reads "Not legal advice." alone over its eight sentences from future.md 8.3 (the project lead: counsel not yet; the string "counsel is engaged" is in both forbidden-strings lists and gone from the research heading), the pay sentence stays; the journey's phase line reads Devnet 3 live, testnet next; (4) LG-1, /income: docs/analysis/income-tiers.md published as a page by tools/launch/income-page.mjs (checked on the gate against the document), listed under Learn, labels on every number, no price of IGN anywhere
