-Eleven checkpoints in six phases, one PR each after the read-only first:

-badges + a single entry point, the four test layers, fuzzing, caching + the

+63 steps in seven phases, covering: inventory, the decision seam, the `ci/`
+layout, runner identity, workflows + badges + a single entry point, the four
+test layers, fuzzing, caching + the linter gate, lanes, self-hosted exposure,
+and a depth pass asking whether any of the now-green gates would actually catch
+anything. A step is a **grind unit, not a PR** — it is sized to be handed to a
+cheap model with the file and nothing else, and steps land in groups across 14
+fixed PR boundaries that must not be merged partially. The last phase is the
+aftermath: the checks worth running once the adoption is green. Steps 1–6 work
+out how much of the standard the target already has, so you do not need to know
+in advance whether this is a first adoption or a top-up.
 
 It is a **merge into whatever CI the target already has**, not a greenfield
 install — the target's tests, thresholds and extra gates survive; the layout,
 ordering, naming and entry points become the standard's. A final section covers
 the inverse job once a module is fully adopted: forwarding one later skeleton
 change into it.

 The skeleton is only worth keeping if it stays ahead of its clones, and an
 adopter is the only party who ever runs it against an unfamiliar module. What
