Each participating site keeps a DIRECTION.md ledger beside its code, and each suppression must name the approved design device that permits it.

A local quality check that keeps visual exceptions tied to explicit, reviewable design decisions.
Local tool, public summary
Design QA checks whether every suppressed visual finding still points to an explicit, authorized decision in that site’s design-direction ledger.
Each participating site keeps a DIRECTION.md ledger beside its code, and each suppression must name the approved design device that permits it.
The check fails for missing reasons or pointers, missing devices, rejected verdicts, invalid ledgers, ignore rules, and missing repositories or records.
The first pass covers five sites and is not wired into CI. It proves the check can work, not yet that every visual exception is governed.
