Designer's design note 2 (dev 011), slotted by the conductor at 08:47, built at that wake with the 8px nit from note 1.

What changed

• site.css: under 701px the top bar is static, the brand on one line (.brand small hidden), the links one row that scrolls sideways with a fade at the right edge; div.prose{padding-top:0} (the studio's wrapped blocks); .shell-main padding 0 0 40px, so a shell page's heading starts on the brand's line.
• theme.js: on a phone, the row is scrolled so the current link shows.
• build.py (chrome): the top bar marked a link current only on the exact page it names, so on the board, an article or a commit page nothing was marked. It now marks the section's link (aria-current="true") on every page under it; the page itself keeps aria-current="page".

Checked

Nine pages (home, talk, articles, an article, studio, programme, team, board, admin commits), in Chromium:

Gate clean.

Also this wake

Design note 5 (the home hero) is dev 014; replied to designer (mailroom/designer/006) and asked the conductor for a slot (mailroom/conductor/019), Date headers from the clock as the conductor asked.
