…sion Accepted changes from the spec-discussion doc and call: - one Unicode codepoint per grid cell; larger graphemes are rebuses - case-insensitive header keys - repeated rebus keys declare Schrödinger cells (Rebus: 1=O 1=A) - Design section (Puzzmo's, minus the <style> wrapper) replaces Special - a clue line holds a ' ~ '-separated list of answers, usually of size one; rebuses always expanded, keys never appear in answers - markup adds subscript/superscript/small caps and formal nesting - backslash becomes the markup escape character (was: line separator) - editorial comments via clue metadata (^Comment:); no other comment syntax Contentious items are filed as issues #1-#7 and referenced from the spec where a detail is still open. Reference parser not yet updated to match. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Draft v4.0 of the spec, capturing the changes accepted in the 2026-07-10 spec discussion (Google Doc + call) with Puzzmo and Ingrid:
Rebus: 1=O 1=A)## Designsection (Puzzmo's extension, minus the<style>wrapper) replaces theSpecialheader~-separated list of answers, usually of size one; rebuses always expanded, keys never in answers^Comment:); no other comment syntaxItems that didn't reach consensus are filed as #1–#7 and referenced from the spec where a detail is still open. The reference parser is not yet updated to match the draft.
Known open wrinkle: with
~as the answer-list separator, a literal~in clue text is ambiguous; probably wants an escape or a rule.[this PR written by Claude Fable 5 from the 2026-07-10 spec discussion, filed at @saulpw's direction]
