id: design: portable theme format & precedence (from #5680)

Summary

Follow-on design ticket from #5680 — its decomposition sketch names this as a separate design, and the parent's acceptance requires these tickets to be filed and linked. Filed in the 2026-11-04 gap pass (WS-F) so the design work exists and can be prioritised on its own merits; implementation timing is a separate decision, possibly months out.

What this design must settle

Theme-as-object, the post/board/viewer precedence order, and safety validation for portable themes.

Context from the parent

The parent design fixes boards' sharing flows, portable themes, playable posts, and moderation as the step after boards v1 (#2054). The parent issue carries the surrounding decisions this ticket must not re-decide; where this ticket's answer would change a parent decision, record that explicitly rather than silently forking it.

Decision record expected

Close this design with a recorded decision (on this issue or in a doc/ record linked from it): the chosen shape, the alternatives rejected and why, and the invariants implementation must hold. If the design splits further, file the splits and link them here rather than growing this issue.

Relations

Parent: #5680. Programme: epic #2056. Filed by WS-F (2026-11-04 ID design gap & expansion pass).

Task: Triage of issue id: design: portable theme format & precedence (from #5680) #5858 at current state.
Findings: Issue id: design: portable theme format & precedence (from #5680) #5858 is OPEN and still live — a follow-on design ticket from parent id: design: Boards next steps — sharing flows, portable themes, playable posts, moderation #5680, filed 2026-11-05T01:56Z in the WS-F gap pass and linked from the parent (parent comment 2026-11-05T02:01Z confirms the decomposition filing). No PR implements or references this design (search hits are unrelated dependency PRs); no hard-stop labels are present. Parent id: design: Boards next steps — sharing flows, portable themes, playable posts, moderation #5680 is still OPEN with no decision record yet (its own triage, task 10113, was handed to the opencode lane today), and the parent design is itself the step after boards v1 (id: design: ID boards v1 #2054). Programme epic epic: ID platform expansion — apps, comms, currency, hosting, boards (2026-10-28 directive, LIST 6–15) #2056 is OPEN.
Ordering / blocker: This design must not re-decide parent decisions — theme-as-object, the post/board/viewer precedence order, and safety validation for portable themes all build on the sharing/theme decisions id: design: Boards next steps — sharing flows, portable themes, playable posts, moderation #5680 fixes. The decision record for id: design: portable theme format & precedence (from #5680) #5858 is therefore ordered AFTER the id: design: Boards next steps — sharing flows, portable themes, playable posts, moderation #5680 decision record. The issue body already states implementation timing is a separate decision, possibly months out; nothing here is closable or implementable yet.
Expectation: When id: design: Boards next steps — sharing flows, portable themes, playable posts, moderation #5680 records its decision, this ticket is unblocked for its own design pass; close it only with a recorded decision (chosen shape, rejected alternatives, invariants) per its Decision record section.
