Vendored + adapted into posterly from ARIS (Auto-claude-code-research-in-sleep),
skill paper-poster-html. Origin: https://github.com/wanshuiyin/Auto-claude-code-research-in-sleep
Upstream tokenization: MIT (c) 2026 wanshuiyin -- ../LICENSES/aris-MIT.txt
This is the tokenized form of posterly's own neutral template; the class names and
content are posterly's own (c) 2026 Ruishuo Chen. As an adapted derivative this file
ships as part of posterly under AGPL-3.0. See ../NOTICE.md.

<!--
============================================================
TEMPLATE: landscape_4col (ARIS fork)
CANVAS: 60in × 36in landscape (ICML / NeurIPS / generic landscape)
LAYOUT: header → optional banner → 4 body columns → optional takeaways → footer
USE WHEN: standard ML conference poster with 3-5 content cards per column,
mix of figures + equations + small tables.
HOW TO USE:
1. Copy this file to your working directory as `poster.html`.
2. Edit the DESIGN TOKENS in `:root` to your lab/venue colors.
3. Replace TODO content placeholders (search for "TODO").
4. Run `python tools/run_gates.py poster.html --tokens design_tokens.json` (the default driver: preflight -> style -> measure -> polish; design_tokens.json is the design-direction pack written at lock time -- SKILL.md Step 2.5) to align columns and check style/structure.
5. Run `python tools/render_preview.py poster.html` to produce the PDF.
NOTE: as shipped, this scaffold passes `preflight` (structure) but is
EXPECTED to FAIL `measure`/`polish` -- figures are commented out and copy
is TODO stubs, so columns only fill the top of the canvas. Those two gates
judge a FILLED poster; balance them once you've added real content. See
templates/README.md ("Scaffolds, not finished posters").
MEASURE ROLES: every layout-critical element carries `data-measure-role`.
Generic measurement scripts depend on these — do not remove.
CANVAS RETARGETING: to print at another size, change the canvas in exactly
TWO places that must stay in sync -- the `@page { size: ... }` rule and the
`.poster { width/height }` (also the `@media print .poster { width/height }`).
Example: ICLR 2026 main conference uses 185cm 90cm landscape (official print
service spec) -- set @page to `185cm 90cm`, width to `1850 * var(--u)` and
height to `900 * var(--u)` (and the print-override .poster to `185cm`/`90cm`).
Adapted from posterly (MIT, © 2026 Ruishuo Chen) — see LICENSES/ & NOTICE.md;
ARIS modifications: flat de-gradient, --fs token scale, zero-inline-style
utilities, data-source/data-color-exempt contracts.

EXTEND the selector lists with your own prose/display
classes -- a hand-rolled skeleton that drops it strands
single-word widows and ragged titles; polish warns as
TEXT-WRAP).
- pretty: fills each line, protects the last-line orphan
(single-word widow). Safe on all prose.
- balance: evens CENTERED display text only -- never pair
it with left-aligned multi-sentence prose (SKILL.md wrap
rules).
- Any inline class you add that paints a background (a
.mark highlight, a keyword chip) must declare its own
`color` (Gate G -- never inherit ink across a ground
change) plus `box-decoration-break: clone;
-webkit-box-decoration-break: clone;` so a wrapped
highlight keeps its padding on both fragments (then it
never needs &nbsp;-gluing to hold one line).

The paper reports RelErr crossing 0 <strong>"between d=500 and d=1000."</strong> Our full-scale run crosses between <strong>d=100 and d=200</strong> instead — a genuine quantitative mismatch, documented rather than hidden.
