<p>The production release followed several failed preview builds. Those failures were resolved rather than suppressed:</p>
<ul>
<li class="">Node 24 / Webpack compatibility conflict</li>
<li class="">Docusaurus package-version mismatch</li>
<li class="">Vercel base-path mount configuration</li>
<li class="">presentation-library broken links</li>
<li class="">Vercel <code>ignoreCommand</code> length validation</li>
<li class="">shallow-clone <code>bad object</code> behavior in ignored-build checks</li>
</ul>
<p>The production Design deployment from merge commit <code>7a63c98097db491e619bf1287ab58278775f47c4</code> reached <code>READY</code> after the fixes were applied.</p>
<h2 class="anchor anchorTargetStickyNavbar_Vzrq" id="narrative-and-visual-system-distinction">Narrative and visual-system distinction<a href="https://jobtura.io/design/blog/design-system-deployment-2026-08-26#narrative-and-visual-system-distinction" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Narrative and visual-system distinction" title="Direct link to Narrative and visual-system distinction" translate="no">​</a></h2>
<p>The current design surface uses the approved monochrome presentation language as a visual reference. Narrative content must continue to follow the assigned content lock. Variant A (<code>The AI Interview Copilot</code>) and Variant B (<code>The Candidate Intelligence Layer</code>) are separate narratives and must not be mixed.</p>
<h2 class="anchor anchorTargetStickyNavbar_Vzrq" id="known-visual-issue">Known visual issue<a href="https://jobtura.io/design/blog/design-system-deployment-2026-08-26#known-visual-issue" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Known visual issue" title="Direct link to Known visual issue" translate="no">​</a></h2>
<p>Code blocks in the current Variant B dark theme have insufficient foreground/background contrast and are difficult to read. Treat this as an unresolved design-system defect, not an accepted Variant B pattern. The next design pass should normalize code-block surfaces, inline-code treatment, syntax-token contrast, copy controls, and focus/selection states using monochrome accessibility targets without introducing unauthorized accent colors.</p>

<p>The remaining identity package will focus on canonical logo assets and variants, typography families and weights, iconography, deterministic SVG-first exports, raster fallbacks where required, final asset-library documentation, and the code-block readability correction noted above. Precision-critical assets must be reused from approved sources rather than regenerated.</p>]]></content:encoded>
