@@ -111,19 +111,6 @@ Still open:
 - **Content retag** — `daily_fun_mc` rows still carry `sex='neutral'` in the asset DB; after C3's HowWell-side exclusion this is purely Desire Sync pool hygiene (benign today via the binary filter). 48/150 sexual_preferences items are non-binary configs (Wheel-only) — intended?
 - **npm audit** — 9 moderate remain after the 2026-07-08 firebase-functions v7 bump (retry-request/teeny-request via @google-cloud/storage, i.e. **firebase-admin** transitive — untouched by the functions bump); revisit on the next firebase-admin major. _(Re-verified 2026-07-11: still 9 moderate, unchanged set; deliberately not running `npm audit fix` — no lockfile churn on the production backend for documented moderates.)_
 - **`scheduledOutcomesReminder` scaling cap** — the daily cron scans `couples` with a flat `.limit(200)` and no pagination (`functions/src/couples/scheduledOutcomesReminder.ts:35`), so couples beyond the first 200 silently never get 30/60/90-day outcome nudges. Fine pre-launch; **before the userbase approaches ~200 couples**, paginate with the same `orderBy(__name__)+startAfter` page loop `assignDailyQuestion` already uses (see `assignDailyQuestion.ts` PAGE_SIZE pattern).
-- **Compose stability: adopt `ImmutableList` for `*UiState` list/set fields (codebase-wide).** Strong-skipping (K2 default) is on, and the Home refactor added `@Immutable` to the Home card models — but `List<>`/`Set<>` params still only reference-skip. Add the `kotlinx.collections.immutable` dependency (JetBrains, first-party) and switch `*UiState` list/set fields to `ImmutableList`/`ImmutableSet` (with `.toImmutableList()` at each VM construction site) so repeated card/list params become structurally skippable. **Do it consistently across all ~20 screens in one pass — not per-screen — to avoid a snowflake.** `ui/home/HomeModels.kt` is already partly there (`@Immutable` on `HomeAction`/`PendingActionCard`/`HomeCategorySummary`), so Home is the natural reference implementation.
-
-- **Test `HomeViewModel.loadHome` (the honest follow-up to the Home decomposition).** The R31 Home split made
-  Home navigable, extracted its pure action logic into `HomeActionMapper` (12 JVM tests) and added a render
-  smoke — but deliberately did **not** touch `loadHome`, the ~180-line Firestore orchestration (5 parallel
-  retention fetches + streak/outcome calc + error handling) that remains the **highest-risk, still-untested**
-  code on the screen. The render-smoke exercises the render path, not `loadHome`'s data assembly. Real next
-  priority: a `HomeViewModel` test with fake repos covering the parallel-fetch success/partial-failure paths.
-  Needs the repo interfaces faked (no Hilt/Firebase) — its own follow-up, not a Home-UI change.
-- **De-duplicate `dueFollowUpDay` across Home / Settings / YourProgress (3 copies).** The 30/60/90-day
-  outcome-reminder day math is implemented three times (now `HomeActionMapper.dueFollowUpDay`,
-  `SettingsViewModel`, `YourProgressViewModel`), all on the API-safe `Instant.atZone().toLocalDate()` path
-  since R31. Lift to one shared helper so the three can't drift; low-risk once `loadHome` has a test around it.

-* The house register is adult deadpan: mock-formality and fake stakes for tiny real things. Not
-  chaotic-quirky, not children's-entertainer energy.
-* The weekday theme is the *angle*, not a template stem. Every Thursday prompt opening
-  "What's the funniest..." is a machine fingerprint. Approach each weekday's mood from a different

-* Wildcards get the single most absurd detail in the pack — still adult deadpan, still one absurd

-* The guides' example nouns ("two-song kitchen dance", "dessert walk", "snack board") are categories,
-  not vocabulary. Shipping them verbatim is a reject.

-- duplicate exact or normalized question text
-- blocked near-duplicates
-- unknown categories
-- partial packs or patch manifests under production filenames
-- values that will be coerced or silently ignored

-- a production pack must use the top-level shape `{ "category": {...}, "questions": [...] }`
-- the `category` object is required and must include `id`, `display_name`, `description`, `access`, and `icon_name`
-- every question must include `id`, `category_id`, `type`, `text`, integer `depth`, `access`, and `tags`
-- `category_id` must exactly match `category.id`
-- `depth` must be an integer: `1` = light, `2` = medium, `3` = deep
-- `tags` must be present as an array; use at least one meaningful tag unless a documented exception exists
-- `sex` is optional and nullable for ordinary packs; require it only when a product feature actually filters or routes by sex
-- question-type-specific fields must match `QUESTION_SCHEMA.md`
-- never rely on the filename to create or repair a missing category
-- a batch file, continuation note, validation report, or patch manifest is not a production question pack

-
-## The house humor register
-
-Closer's humor is adult deadpan: mock-formality and fake stakes applied to tiny real things.
-
-```text
-official pick
-formal ruling
-lifetime achievement award for couch positioning
-a binding decision
-this week's championship
-```
-
-Not random wackiness. Not chaotic-quirky. Not children's-entertainer energy. Two adults keeping a
-straight face about something small — that is the register.
-
-## Punch at the situation, never at the partner
-
-If the laugh needs a target, the target is the couple's shared circumstance — the fridge, the
-algorithm, the weather, the errand that ate the afternoon. Never either person's body, habits,
-competence, or effort.
-
-## The snort test
-
-The best daily lines make one partner snort and show the other the phone. Aim for roughly one in four
-questions to genuinely hit that bar. The rest should land warm and concrete. A pack where every line
-strains to be funny is as exhausting as a pack with no jokes at all.
-
-## Example lists are categories, not vocabulary
-
-The example lists in these guides (snacks, tiny dates, silly bets...) name *kinds* of content. They
-are not words to reuse. Do not put the guides' own example nouns — "two-song kitchen dance",
-"dessert walk", "snack board", "fake award" as literal text — into shipped questions. Invent your
-own specifics of the same kind.
-
-If a guide example appears verbatim in a pack, that question is a reject.
-
-## No template blocks
-
-Within any 10 consecutive questions:
-
-- no repeated game mechanic
-- no two prompts opening with the same first three words
-- no option set where all options share one grammatical template
-  (four options all shaped "A + adjective + noun" is a machine fingerprint)
-
-## Distribution should look human
-
-A human writer favors some mechanics and neglects others. Exactly N of each mechanic, evenly spaced,
-is a machine fingerprint and a reject signal at review. Uneven is correct.
-
-## The texting test
-
-Read the question as a 6pm text to your partner. If it reads like a brand's Instagram caption or an
-app talking, rewrite it. A person wrote this for one specific other person — it should sound that way.

-# 12. Production JSON Contract and Quality Rules
+# 12. JSON Quality Rules
 
-A JSON file is production-ready only when it is both valid content and a complete importable pack.
-
-## 12.1 Required top-level shape
-
-Every production pack must use:
-
-```json
-{
-  "category": {
-    "id": "example_category",
-    "display_name": "Example Category",
-    "description": "User-facing description.",
-    "access": "mixed",
-    "icon_name": "favorite"
-  },
-  "questions": []
-}
-```
-
-Required category fields:
-
-```text
-id
-display_name
-description
-access
-icon_name
-```
-
-Optional category fields such as `schema_version` and `metadata` may be included, but they do not replace the required fields.
-
-Do not use the old simple-pack shape:
-
-```json
-{
-  "id": "example",
-  "title": "Example",
-  "count": 25,
-  "questions": []
-}
-```
-
-Do not rely on filename parsing to create a category. A missing `category` object is a hard production failure.
-
-## 12.2 Required question fields
-
-Every production question must include:
-
-```text
-id
-category_id
-type
-text
-depth
-access
-tags
-```
-
-Rules:
-
-- `category_id` must exactly equal the enclosing `category.id`
-- `depth` must be the integer `1`, `2`, or `3`
-- `tags` must be an array and should contain at least one meaningful tag
-- `access` must be `free` or `premium`
-- `sex` is optional and nullable for ordinary category packs
-- `sex` becomes required only for a documented feature that routes or filters by it
-- choice options and `answer_config` must follow `QUESTION_SCHEMA.md`
-- top-level `options` and `answer_config.options` must match when both are required by the active schema
-
-
-## 12.2A Type-specific importer contract
-
-The active importer reads:
-
-| Type | Production source |
-|---|---|
-| `single_choice` | top-level `options`; mirror into `answer_config.options` |
-| `multi_choice` | top-level `options`; mirror into `answer_config.options` |
-| `this_or_that` | exactly two top-level `options`; mirror into `answer_config.options` |
-| `scale` | `answer_config.min`, `max`, `min_label`, `max_label` |
-| `written` | `answer_config`, including `max_length` when customized |
-
-Do not place scale settings in a top-level `scale` object.
-
-Do not place written settings in a top-level `answer` object.
-
-Do not ship `this_or_that` without two explicit choices.
-
-
-## 12.3 Production pack versus work artifact
-
-These are not production packs:
-
-```text
-25-question batch files
-continuation notes
-coverage maps
-validation reports
-marked-fix lists
-patch manifests
-apply scripts
-review summaries
-```
-
-A work artifact must never overwrite a production filename.
-
-A partial batch may be saved only outside importer-scanned production directories and must be clearly labeled as work in progress. The last complete validated production pack stays in place until the full replacement is ready.
-
-A patch manifest must:
-
-- use a clearly non-production name such as `*.patch.json`
-- live outside any importer-scanned production directory
-- identify the complete source pack it applies to
-- be applied to the full source pack
-- produce a complete validated production JSON before shipping
-
-A patch manifest is never itself renamed to the production filename.
-
-## 12.4 Daily pack protection
-
-`daily_fun_multiple_choice_v3.json` is the compatibility filename for the Daily Single-Choice Weekday System.
-
-That production file must always contain the complete documented pack:
-
-```text
-500 weekday questions
-11 wildcard questions
-511 total questions
-86 free
-425 premium
-511 single_choice
-```
-
-A daily patch document containing only changed IDs is not the daily pack. Restore or retain the complete 511-question source, apply the patch to that source, then validate and ship the complete result.

-## 12.6 Catalog-wide hard gate
-
-Per-file validation is not enough.
-
-Before rebuilding `app.db` or shipping question content, validate every production pack together.
-
-The full catalog must have:
-
-- globally unique question IDs
-- globally unique exact question text
-- no normalized duplicate question text after case and whitespace normalization
-- no blocked near-duplicates across categories
-- no production filename containing a patch or partial batch
-- no category resolving to `unknown`
-- no schema mismatch that would coerce or zero a field
-
-A duplicate in two different category files is still a hard failure. The importer may abort the entire build, not merely skip the duplicate question.
-
-When the same idea belongs in two packs, rewrite each prompt around its category-specific purpose rather than copying the same text.
-
-## 12.7 Catalog impact reporting
-
-When replacing or trimming an existing pack, report:
-
-```text
-old question count
-new question count
-net catalog change
-old free/premium counts
-new free/premium counts
-whether the change is intentional and approved
-```
-
-A planned reduction from a legacy 250-question pack to a stronger 150-question pack is not a schema defect, but the live catalog shrink must be visible in the completion report.
-
+---
 
 # 13. Pack Structure Recommendation
 
-Normal category packs may contain **no more than 150 questions**. A complete 150-question mixed pack should normally target:
+For a 250-question pack:
 
 ```bat
-SET TOTAL_QUESTIONS=150
-SET FREE_QUESTIONS=45
-SET PREMIUM_QUESTIONS=105
-SET MULTI_CHOICE=90
-SET SINGLE_CHOICE=30
-SET SCALE=15
-SET THIS_OR_THAT=10
-SET WRITTEN=5
+SET TOTAL_QUESTIONS=250
+SET FREE_QUESTIONS=75
+SET PREMIUM_QUESTIONS=175
+SET WRITTEN=150
+SET SINGLE_CHOICE=40
+SET MULTI_CHOICE=20
+SET SCALE=25
+SET THIS_OR_THAT=15
 ```
 
-This mix is a planning target, not permission to add filler. A smaller pack is valid when the topic cannot support 150 distinct, strong questions.
+This structure is acceptable if the current app expects those counts.
 
-Rules:
-
-- 150 is the maximum for a normal category pack.
-- written questions should normally total 0 to 5
-- do not force every pack to use every question type
-- preserve the intended free/premium value split when using a smaller pack
-- only a documented special product pack may exceed 150
-- the 511-question daily single-choice system is a documented special exception
+But quality matters more than exact counts. If a pack cannot support 250 good questions without filler, reduce the pack or split it.

-# Closer Question Guide Correction Summary
-
-## Why this update was required
-
-The writing documents and the active importer disagreed about production depth and file shape.
-
-The old guide allowed human-readable depth strings such as `light`, `medium`, and `deep`. The active Room-backed importer expects an integer field, so string depth can be read as `0`.
-
-The old workflow also did not clearly forbid a partial batch or patch manifest from replacing a production JSON filename.
-
-## Correct production authority
-
-Production packs now require:
-
-```text
-top-level category object
-top-level questions array
-category.id
-category.display_name
-category.description
-category.access
-category.icon_name
-question.category_id
-question.type
-question.text
-question.depth as integer 1/2/3
-question.access
-question.tags array
-```
-
-`sex` remains optional and nullable unless a documented feature specifically reads it.
-
-## Work artifacts
-
-The corrected guides explicitly classify these as non-production:
-
-```text
-partial batches
-simple-pack batch JSON
-patch manifests
-validation reports
-coverage maps
-continuation notes
-apply scripts
-review summaries
-```
-
-They must not overwrite production filenames or live in importer-scanned production locations.
-
-## Daily pack rule
-
-`daily_fun_multiple_choice_v3.json` must always remain the complete 511-question Daily Single-Choice Weekday System.
-
-A JSON document containing only changed IDs is a patch manifest. It must be applied to the complete 511-question source; the resulting complete pack is the file that ships.
-
-## Catalog-wide rule
-
-Every production file must pass individually, then the complete catalog must pass together.
-
-The catalog gate rejects:
-
-- duplicate IDs across files
-- duplicate exact or normalized question text across files
-- blocked cross-category near-duplicates
-- unknown categories
-- partial or patch artifacts under production filenames
-- depth or other field coercion caused by schema mismatches
-
-## Immediate file remediation implied by the corrected guide
-
-### `rebuilding_trust.json`
-
-Do not ship the 25-question Batch 1 artifact.
-
-Rebuild or complete the production pack using:
-
-- full `{ "category": ..., "questions": [...] }` shape
-- required category object
-- `category_id` on every question
-- integer depth `1`, `2`, or `3`
-- tags arrays
-- the approved final count and access/type distribution
-
-Keep the last complete production version in place until the full replacement passes validation.
-
-### `daily_fun_multiple_choice_v3.json`
-
-Restore the complete 511-question source.
-
-Apply the 17-ID patch to that complete source.
-
-Ship the complete validated 511-question result, not the patch manifest.
-
-### Cross-file duplicate
-
-Reword one instance of:
-
-```text
-Comfort first or solutions first?
-```
-
-Do not allow identical question text in both Emotional Intimacy and Stress. Give each version a category-specific angle, then rerun the complete catalog gate.
-
-## Catalog count changes
-
-Intentional 250-to-150 pack reductions are allowed under the 150-question cap.
-
-Every completion report must still show:
-
-```text
-old pack count
-new pack count
-net catalog change
-free/premium change
-approval or product rationale
-```

-## Importer-aligned schema snapshot
-
-Every production replacement must preserve:
-
-```text
-top-level category object
-top-level questions array
-category_id on every question
-integer depth 1/2/3
-tags array on every question
-answer_config for scale settings
-answer_config for written settings
-two explicit options for this_or_that

-If the intended future schema differs from the importer, create a separate engineering migration task. Do not make content agents bridge the mismatch by shipping incompatible JSON.

-## Production Replacement Rule
-
-Writing in batches does not permit shipping a partial pack.
-
-During a rewrite:
-
-1. Keep the last complete production JSON in place.
-2. Draft each batch in a controlled workspace or clearly labeled WIP artifact.
-3. Do not save a 25-question batch under the production filename.
-4. Do not switch the production file to the old simple-pack shape.
-5. Merge reviewed batches into the full `{ "category": ..., "questions": [...] }` structure.
-6. Use integer depth `1`, `2`, or `3`.
-7. Include `category_id` and `tags` on every production question.
-8. Validate the complete pack.

-## Production pack shape
+## Question Types
 
-Every production pack must use:
+Use these type names exactly:
+
+* written
+* single_choice
+* multi_choice
+* scale
+* this_or_that
+
+Do not rename them unless the app code is updated first.
+
+## multi_choice
+
+Select every option that applies.
+
+Use 4 to 6 options.
+
+Example:
 
 ```json
 {
-  "category": {
-    "id": "quality_time",
-    "display_name": "Quality Time",
-    "description": "Questions about being present and enjoying meaningful time together.",
-    "access": "mixed",
-    "icon_name": "schedule",
-    "metadata": {}
-  },
-  "questions": []
+  "type": "multi_choice",
+  "text": "What helps you feel relaxed on a date with me?",
+  "options": [
+    { "id": "no_rushing", "text": "Not feeling rushed" },
+    { "id": "phones_away", "text": "Putting phones away" },
+    { "id": "good_food", "text": "Good food" },
+    { "id": "easy_conversation", "text": "Easy conversation" }
+  ]
 }
 ```
 
-Required top-level fields:
-
-```text
-category
-questions
-```
-
-Required category fields:
-
-```text
-id
-display_name
-description
-access
-icon_name
-```
-
-`metadata` is optional but recommended.
-
-Do not use a flat or simple-pack wrapper such as:
-
-```json
-{
-  "id": "quality_time",
-  "title": "Quality Time",
-  "count": 25,
-  "questions": []
-}
-```
-
-The importer reads `data["category"]`. A missing category object can cause the file to resolve to `unknown`.
-
-Do not rely on the filename to recover category identity.
-
-## Required question fields
-
-Every production question requires:
-
-```text
-id
-category_id
-type
-text
-depth
-access
-tags
-```
-
 Rules:
 
-- `category_id` must exactly match `category.id`
-- `type` must be a supported type
-- `text` must be non-empty and catalog-unique
-- `depth` must be integer `1`, `2`, or `3`
-- `access` must be `free` or `premium`
-- `tags` must be an array
-- use at least one meaningful tag unless a documented product exception exists
-- `sex` is optional and nullable for ordinary packs
-- require `sex` only when a documented feature actually reads it
+* Prompt should clearly allow multiple answers.
+* Options should not shame either partner.
+* Options should be practical, emotional, or playful when possible.
+* Options must not overlap too much.
 
-## Depth: production values
+## single_choice
 
-| Meaning | Production value |
-|---|---:|
-| Light | `1` |
-| Medium | `2` |
-| Deep | `3` |
+Select one best answer.
 
-Production example:
+Use 4 to 6 options.
 
-```json
-"depth": 2
-```
-
-### Future depth migration — not production-ready
-
-String values are a planned possibility:
-
-```json
-"depth": "medium"
-```
-
-Do **not** ship them today.
-
-The current importer writes depth into an integer column, and Room reads the field as an integer. A string can be stored or coerced incorrectly and then read as `0`, breaking depth routing and help text.
-
-String depth becomes valid only after a coordinated code and data migration updates:
-
-```text
-build_db.py
-Room entity and schema
-database migration or asset rebuild path
-all integer depth readers
-depth routing and help text
-validation
-tests
-all production content
-```
-
-Until that migration lands, integers are mandatory.
-
-## Supported question types
-
-Use these names exactly:
-
-```text
-written
-single_choice
-multi_choice
-scale
-this_or_that
-```
-
-## `single_choice`
-
-Use when the player chooses one best answer.

+Reject options centered on clean counters, bills, laundry, dishes, appointment scheduling, bedtime planning, saved blankets, or oddly specific domestic logistics unless the question clearly frames the option as playful and worth choosing.
 
-```text
-partial batch JSON
-simple-pack batch JSON
-patch manifest
-marked-fix list
-validation report
-coverage map
-continuation note
-apply script
-review summary
-```
+Schema validation only proves the file can be parsed. It does not prove the content is good.
 
-A patch must be clearly named as a patch, applied to the complete source, and followed by validation of the complete resulting pack.
+Daily packs must also pass the fun gate in `QUESTION_QUALITY_CHECKLIST.md` and the loop in `QUESTION_REWRITE_PLAN.md`.
 
-## Per-file validation
+## Weekday Tags
 
-Before shipping:
+Daily questions must include the correct weekday tag:
 
-- JSON parses
-- top-level `category` exists
-- top-level `questions` exists
-- all required category fields exist
-- every required question field exists
-- every `category_id` matches `category.id`
-- every `depth` is integer `1`, `2`, or `3`
-- all IDs are unique inside the file
-- all question text is unique inside the file
-- all access values are valid
-- every tags value is an array
-- choice option IDs are unique per question
-- mirrored option arrays match exactly
-- scale and written settings are in `answer_config`
-- every `this_or_that` has exactly two choices
-- metadata counts match actual counts
-- the file is complete, not a batch or patch
+* daily_monday_mood_check
+* daily_tuesday_tiny_win
+* daily_wednesday_real_one
+* daily_thursday_laugh
+* daily_friday_flirty
+* daily_saturday_side_quest
+* daily_sunday_slow_burn
 
-## Catalog-wide validation
+If app code still uses older mode tags, include compatibility tags as needed without removing the new weekday tag.
 
-Before rebuilding `app.db` or shipping content, validate every production pack together.
+## Depth
 
-Reject the build for:
+Documented depth values:
 
-- duplicate question IDs across files
-- duplicate exact question text across files
-- duplicate normalized question text after case and whitespace normalization
-- blocked near-duplicates across categories
-- any category resolving to `unknown`
-- any production filename containing a work artifact
-- any schema mismatch that can coerce a value or silently discard configuration
+* light
+* medium
+* deep
 
-A duplicate in two otherwise valid files can abort the entire import.
+Do not use numeric depth values unless the active app import code still requires numeric depth for compatibility.
 
-Per-file success does not override catalog failure.
+If compatibility requires numeric depth, document the exception in the pack README and fix the import code later.
+
+## Access
+
+Valid access values:
+
+* free
+* premium
+
+## Validation Requirements
+
+Before shipping any pack:
+
+* JSON must parse
+* all IDs must be unique
+* all question text must be unique
+* every type must be valid
+* every required field must exist
+* option IDs must be unique within a question
+* options must directly answer the prompt
+* access values must be valid
+* depth values must match current app compatibility rules
+* special packs must match their documented counts
+
+## Content Validation Reminder
+
+Do not confuse schema validity with quality.
+
+A file can be valid JSON and still be bad content.
+
+Daily packs require schema validation plus human content review.
