Artifact Tool: HTML Skeleton Wrapping at Publish Time

What

The Artifact tool now wraps content in a <!doctype html>…<head>…</head><body> skeleton automatically at publish time, so content files should be written without those outer tags.

Details
  • Write the page content directly (body content, CSS, scripts) — no <!DOCTYPE>, <html>, <head>, or <body> tags of your own
  • Unless the user specifies a location, the recommended place for artifact files is the scratchpad directory listed in the system prompt
  • All other existing rules (self-contained, no external resources, responsive, favicon) are unchanged
Evidence

Updated Artifact tool description (search for "wrapped in a", "<!doctype html>", "write the page content directly")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
