+## Context
+
+Physical objects have measurable dimensions. A CD jewel case is 142×125 mm. A CD leaflet is 120×120 mm. A disc is 120 mm in diameter. These are not arbitrary numbers — they are ISO 15727 specifications, the result of decades of industrial design refinement.
+
+OpenCD maps these measurements directly to CSS custom properties at 2× scale. Built on Open Props v2 and following the Agentic Semantic Web philosophy of semantic HTML plus zero-classes styling, OpenCD is a study in how physical media constraints can inform and enrich digital design.
+
+The framework ships seven components, each a CSS module mapping to a physical CD packaging element: jewel case, spine, leaflet, disc, tray, booklet, and back insert.
