+# Zenbu UI wiki
+
+This wiki is the source of truth for future HTML and component work.
+
+## Pages
+
+- [HTML authoring](HTML_AUTHORING.md): native-underneath markup and ownership.
+- [Primitive map](PRIMITIVE_MAP.md): which primitive owns each native control.
+- [Tokens and sizing](TOKENS_AND_SIZING.md): reference, semantic, local, theme,
+  density, and xs-xl contracts.
+- [Review checklist](REVIEW_CHECKLIST.md): required searches, tests, and
+  accessibility checks.
+
+## Core rules
+
+1. Keep browser semantics. A Zenbu control contains the appropriate native
+   element rather than replacing it.
+2. Give every authored interactive control one owning primitive.
+3. Use `appearance="plain"` when only behavior and scale are shared.
+4. Consume `--zenbu-sys-*` intent in application/component CSS.
+5. Use reference values only while defining semantic mappings.
+6. Keep business state and workflows outside the design system.
+7. Add catalog and browser evidence for every public primitive.
