M52 Market Slot Adapter Contract

ABGM52MarketSlotAdapter is the geometry boundary between the fixed 16:9 Market composition and reusable UI modules. It does not own art, text, state or intent wiring.

Compact landscape rule

For a design-canvas width below 900px (the 760x360 and 844x390 fixtures), the adapter uses three narrower card slots on the left and a 0.375-wide ledger on the right. The ledger is also taller so its 48px action dock has real room.

For the 1280x720 fixture, the existing wide slots remain unchanged.

Acceptance

• m52_market_slot_adapter_test.gd checks the compact ledger minimum, card separation and wide-layout preservation.
• The adapter must be used before mounting RecruitCard and CandidateLedger into Market; direct use of the old fixed slots is not accepted for the M52 component integration.
