chore(gitignore): exclude _palace/ from public repo#55
Merged
Conversation
The palace is Vesper × Hux local-only memory. Until now nothing gitignored prevented a careless 'git add .' from publishing palace contents into the public repo. Cipher Quarantine outgoing-direction rule says this must never happen. Adding _palace/ to the LOCAL ONLY block alongside .claude/ and the pipeline/features/ local docs. Surfaced by Vesper × Cipher × RUNE QA pass 2026-05-23. Co-Authored-By: Vesper (Claude Opus 4.7) <noreply@anthropic.com> Provenance: agent-authored, human-reviewed

What
One-line fix: add `_palace/` to `.gitignore` in the LOCAL ONLY block.
Why
The palace is Vesper × Hux local-only memory. Until now nothing in `.gitignore` prevented a careless `git add .` (or an over-eager tool) from publishing palace content into the public repo. Cipher Quarantine outgoing-direction rule says palace contents must never leave the dev machine.
Surfaced during the Vesper × Cipher × RUNE QA pass on 2026-05-23, while staging the /dispatches/ hub PR (#54): the recon found `_palace/` showing up as untracked-but-unignored — a latent Quarantine violation.
Diff
```diff
+# Palace (Vesper × Hux local-only memory, must never leave the dev machine)
+_palace/
```
Verification
`git check-ignore _palace/` returns the rule line after this lands. Nothing else changes.
