What changed

• adds a progressive visual layer with a responsive field-map signal, scroll reveals, subtle project-card depth, and rope page transitions
• adds six lightweight animated SVG scenes tied to the verified featured projects
• brings the cow mascot back as an optional clickable field assistant and decorative pointer trail without hiding the native cursor
• loads the enhancement from the existing shared script, so the underlying HTML, content, and no-JavaScript fallbacks remain unchanged

Why

The consolidated redesign improved structure and credibility, but it became more restrained than Quinton's original rope-and-cow personality. This pass restores movement, surprise, and recognizable character without undoing the editorial field-notebook foundation.

Accessibility and behavior

• honors prefers-reduced-motion
• disables pointer-following and tilt behavior for coarse/touch pointers
• preserves native cursor behavior and keyboard focus styles
• keeps decorative scenes and trail imagery out of the accessibility tree
• retains existing no-JavaScript and JSON failure fallbacks

Validation

• python scripts/validate_site.py
• node --check js/main.js
• node --check js/coolness.js
• node --check js/projects.js
• git diff --check
• local HTTP smoke test for all four pages, project JSON, stylesheet, and enhancement script

Review note

The in-app browser backend was unavailable in this session, so this remains a draft for visual review at desktop and mobile sizes before merge.
