Option B — Clear connections

Owner requested a separate option across all prototype pages, studying Acquire’s seller design and WCAG 2.2. Source: prototype/option-b/; entry: prototype/option-b/site/home.html. Scope: 115 original journey screens plus landing, listing/application, and accessibility review (118 HTML pages).

Original prototype and Listing-Design-2026-10-22 remain unchanged. The generator reads their registry/source and applies a separate shell, theme and local assets. Lavender, dark ink, white surfaces, strong typography and generous spacing distinguish this option. Existing statuses, decisions and onward links are retained in collapsible review controls. Fictional illustrations only. References: Acquire seller page and W3C WCAG 2.2. Detailed mapping: prototype/option-b/ACCESSIBILITY.md.

Structural checks: 118 pages, zero problems. Axe A/AA: zero reported violations in 118 initial desktop states plus application route; 41 pages retain manual-review flags. All pages fit at 320 CSS px after two upload fixes. Manual checks cover representative layouts, skip navigation, Free/Paid keyboard selection and completion, and orbit pause/resume. Reports/screenshots saved with the option.

Not a conformance claim. Screen-reader, zoom, text-spacing, full keyboard and integrated authentication tests remain. No integrated scenario status changes. Server authorization, cross-company denial, idempotency, outbox and audit are not implemented by this synthetic design. No real data/secrets, no runtime CDN/font requests, no security posture change. Existing gates including Q02, Q03, Q05 and Q06 remain.

No new issue/PR, commit or publication created for Option B in this task. Next eligible action: owner comparison of A/B, manual accessibility review and a separately scoped implementation task. No fees, staffing, verification policy or approval established.

Legacy whole-vault validation was rerun with self-tests: exit 1, three deliberate mutations detected. Report saved at prototype/option-b/verification/vault-validation.txt; unrelated evidence findings were not repaired in this visual-design task.
