The audit's verdict was that Godstrument is short on REACH, not features:
everything hid behind an invisible right-click, and everything you made
died in one tab. Four builds against exactly that.
☰ EVERYTHING — a visible, grouped index of the whole instrument (view /
play / your world / together / out / start here). Labels lead with the
plain verb and wear the god-name behind: "arpeggiator · GODSPEED",
"record to a file · TESTAMENT". Critically it is ONE data-driven list
with TWO renderers — the ☰ panel and the right-click sky menu both
render skyGroups(), so a feature can never appear in one and not the
other. (The sky menu's 90 hand-written lines became a 17-line loop.)
Submenus expand in place, so touch works.
☄ THE OMENS — the instrument always knew when the world was doing
something rare and never said so. Reads the live feeds and ranks what's
remarkable: a full moon, a harmonious sky, satellites overhead, a quake
that just landed, your solar return. One line whispers into the ticker
on arrival; the full reading is a tap away. Verified against the real
planet — it read a 91%-lit moon, an unusually harmonious sky and a
convulsing bitcoin, all true at the time.
🌍 SHARED WORLDS — the whole instrument (cables, grooves, beat, kit,
scale, tempo) folded into one link, gzipped by the browser's own
CompressionStream: ~10KB of patch becomes a ~620-character URL. It
rides the fragment, so nothing is uploaded, no account or gallery is
needed, and there is nothing to take down. The receiver is always
asked, never overwritten, and ⌘Z restores theirs. Round-trip verified:
a 12-wheel hat and 137bpm came back exactly. Deliberately NOT gated on
the hub handshake — a shared link must open even when the hub is down.
📱 THE PHONE FORK — a touch device is offered lifestrument once
(remembered, never forced), and the top bar folds to fit a narrow
screen either way.
Plus: the expression-lane drag was written out byte-identically in
three places; it is now one shared helper that speaks pointer events,
so velocity/chance/ratchet/p-lock lanes work under a thumb too.
Grimoire documents all four; manual regenerated.

The front door becomes a skin: the first-visit card grows from three doors
to six, the walked door is REMEMBERED (gs_door) and opens the same way on
every arrival, and it's re-choosable any time (right-click sky → 🚪 the
doors, or say "doors"). Each door is one DOORS registry entry + one act —
delete the entry, the door is gone.
The classics (unchanged acts): 🌱 start from zero · 🌅 first light ·
⛈ the full storm. The new gig doors:
- 🎪 the rig — walk on stage: first light applied, beat panel + GODSPEED
already open, and the sleeper fold tightened so only the ~8 liveliest
uncabled hands stay in the field (8th-liveliest flowDisp sets the bar).
- 🃏 the deal — the world deals five cables from its liveliest feeds
(family-diverse) onto a shuffled spread of ten dests, ONE card always
⚡pulsing (÷16 or ÷8); "🃏 deal again" chip; every arrival deals fresh;
each hand is an ungodly mark so ⌘Z takes it back. Voice: "deal" redeal
while the deal is your door.
- 🌒 the dawn — first light applied, then the players take the stage one
at a time (~1.25s apart, cabled first, then by liveliness, 18 arrivals),
each narrated in the ticker; cables only draw once their player is on
stage (drawCables skips hidden sources); when the entrance ends the
sleeper fold reconciles the rest.
Verified live (static serve + temp hook, removed & grep-verified 0):
six cards render; deal → exactly 5 routes, 1 pulsing, chip visible,
gs_door saved; redeal changes the hand, marks undo, ⌘Z restores the
previous hand exactly; rig → beat+GODSPEED open, field folded tight,
deal furniture closed; dawn → 24/24 hidden at curtain, players arrive
one-by-one with ticker narration and their cables, finale reconciles to
0 hidden; zero console errors; T O B G S + ⌘Z regression green;
grimoire + manual regenerated.

Four hands-on changes from live-play feedback (Jono's "what speed are those
things going at?"):
- ghost cables: a patched cable whose source is silent no longer vanishes —
alpha/width floor (va = max(activeDisp, 0.10)) on the idle line, dashes and
dot; glow still reserved for active cables.
- speed at a glance: flowLabel() speaks each source's rate in bars of the
current godtime ("streaming · ≈ 1/8 bar · ≈ every 5 bars · asleep, still
12m · glacial"); shown in the node right-click live readout and as a second
line in every loupe source row. Sources track _lastMoveT (last real data).
- ⚡ PULSE: per-cable clocked throb — r.pulse ∈ {16,8,4,1} pulses/bar; the
shaped value rides a raised-cosine synced to seqPhase, so a glacial feed
(debt, declination) becomes a ≥1/16 groove whose DEPTH is the slow value.
Cycled via the ⚡ chip on each cable row (off → ÷16 → ÷8 → ÷4 → bar),
serialized with the patch, undo-marked, whitelisted on load.
- 💤 sleeper fold: cableless sources with no signal (norm ≤ 0.02) and no
movement for 45s fold out of the field; they wake THEMSELVES when their
feed speaks (lastMove refresh). Bottom-left chip shows the count and
toggles the fold (localStorage gs_fold). Field view only — skins keep
their full cosmologies, zero stays zero, disconnected dev view unaffected.
Verified live (static serve + temp hooks, removed & grep-verified 0): pulse
active == norm·window to 0 error over 12 same-frame samples and cycles
⚡÷16→÷8→÷4→bar→off; ghost cable visible on a dead venus.dist route;
labels discriminate (mercury "≈ every 5 bars", neptune "glacial", earth.beat
honestly "waiting…" — it never moves); fold hides dead feeds with chip
"💤 2 quiet feeds folded", chip toggle restores, woken feed rejoins field;
zero console errors; T O B G S + ⌘Z regression green; grimoire + manual
regenerated.

Vendor SOLARGOD@6391273's dependency-free JPL ephemeris (viz/spheres.js) and
make the solar system a modulation source, computed locally at the instrument's
own clock — no network, no server, no sockets.
- viz/spheres.js: ephem.js verbatim + the minimal lib subset inlined; loaded via
a <script type="module"> bridge that self-checks (Mars @ JD 2461236.5 within
0.005 AU of Horizons ground truth) and hangs a frozen window.SPHERES; every
consumer guarded so a missing/broken file still boots the app.
- sphere.<planet>.{phase,dist,beat} sources for the 8 planets, routable like any
S&H source; the great-year clock maps 1 bar = N days of sky (log knob 1..3650,
default 30) off seqPhase alone, so scrub/tempo/reload reproduce the same sky.
- 🪐 spheres panel (S / right-click sky): per-planet live meters, rate knob,
☸ orbital-ratios button (drum wheels → 4:8:16 Io:Europa:Ganymede, 8:13
Venus:Earth pentagram), on/off; godspeak: spheres on/off·faster/slower,
"<planet> drive <dest>". spheres {on,rate} travel in the patch.
- grimoire chapter + regenerated viz/manual.html.
Verified: self-check green; determinism (jupiter.phase@bar16 identical across
reload); pentagram (venus.beat period 1.59 bars ≈ 583.9/365, within 2%); ratios
set exact wlens and ⌘Z reverts; zero console errors; ♪ T O B G + ⌘Z all work;
spheres default off on fresh boot.

Four grimoire entries in the house voice, fact-checked against what was
verified: 📼 TESTAMENT ("it is written"), ☸ WHEELS (Ezekiel 1:16 — "a
wheel in the middle of a wheel"), 🕊 PSALM (the local-listening privacy
line — nothing leaves the machine), ✦ CANON (the read-only shelf of
worked examples). Manual regenerated (27 sections).
Cross-feature QA: all four surfaces coexist with the pantheon and the
crossover — TESTAMENT ⏺ button, WHEELS chips in all 5 beat lanes,
PSALM/TESTAMENT/GODSPEED ctxItems — zero console errors, groove
self-check green.

Merge pantheon/integrate (GODSPEED ⚡ · GODSQUASH 🫀 · GODSPEAK 🗣 ·
UNGODLY ⏪ + the ε closer, reviewed & committed from the m3ultra rig)
into main (keyroll · sats · planes cache · god's eye · 18 review
fixes). Two conflict hunks, both in the beat panel where behavior
fixes met undo instrumentation — resolved keeping both: the bpm field
stays always-editable AND marks undo; master ▶/■ keeps per-lane mute
memory AND marks undo. Manual regenerated from the merged grimoire.
Verified: zero console errors, groove self-check, beat/G panels,
godspeak chip + keyroll CSS all present, python gates green, the
godspeak worker skips gracefully where MLX is absent (and the
supervisor now retires clean exits instead of churning them).

The GODSPEAK grammar: tempo/bpm with spoken numbers (one twenty → 120),
squash N percent, AMPLER capture/chop, open/close every panel, play/stop
the beat, mood, skin, zen — and take it back, the voice of god un-doing.
First match wins; unmatched words arrive in the ticker, never an error.
A 🗣 chip pulses while the mic is held. Polish: arp.up pruned, the arp
breathes with groove.velo, tempo edits mark undo, serializePatch carries
godtime.locked so undoing a mood restores the lock. Grimoire chapter for
all four gods + regenerated manual + worker permission notes.
Reviewed by fable: two fixes folded in — matchSkin normalizes candidate
names (so god-s-eye matches post-convergence) and a virgin session
saying play-the-beat gets the seed pattern first.

A fresh-eyes adversarial pass over the 15 pulled commits (godrum +
keyroll + sats + planes cache + god's eye): 21 raised, 18 confirmed,
all fixed.
The instrument: .mid export no longer smuggles the seeded demo beat
(lanes export only if playing or edited off the seed — same test
zeroHasBuild uses); master ▶/■ remembers per-lane mutes; the beat
panel's bpm field is always editable like the dial (🔒 blocks the
world's hands, not the user's); ⏺ rec with the beat stopped anchors
step 0 at arm instead of the invisible free-running clock; note-length
drags speak pointer events (touch works, window-level so mid-drag
re-renders survive); the resize handle no longer eats 40% of a
sixteenth's click width; the god's eye clears a stale ISS trail after
an rAF nap or resize; the "Agent A" dev-process string is gone; the
grimoire now tells the truth about kit knobs and which voices hold
note length (manual regenerated).
The workers: world_sats — partial Celestrak fetches backfill from the
old cache instead of clobbering it, pass-detection state survives the
6-hourly refresh, the no-TLE exit naps 15 min so the supervisor can't
hammer Celestrak, and the venue default now matches world_sky's
Brisbane instead of Null Island; world_planes bounds its stale-cache
fallback to 1h so a days-old sky can't resurrect as live; world_sky's
docstring admits the lat/lon it emits. run.py retires workers that
exit 0 instead of reviving them every 10s (the sgp4-missing churn).

A new map-layout skin — the world's own sensor picture read AS the cosmology,
ported from the GODSIGH view. A minimal equirectangular Earth (a sparse hand-drawn
continent set kept inline — no heavy geo data in the one-file console), a 30°
graticule refit to a 2:1 rect each frame (dynamicStations), and nine geographic
"posts" the sources are seated at by godseyeOf. The overlay seats every feed at its
LITERAL coordinates: earthquakes flash at quake.lat/lon (venue-antipode fallback if
absent), the ISS and recon birds sweep as a moving point + trail from sats.iss_lat/
lon, aircraft are a shimmer band, the markets pulse at NY/London/Tokyo, the solar
wind washes the poles as an aurora, the word sparks at civilisational coordinates,
and your own hands are the ring at the venue. Cold watch-floor palette (near-black,
cyan, warning amber) and a Bb minor-pentatonic retune. Registered in SKINS +
SKIN_HOME beside the bagua; grimoire + manual entry ("the eye that hears").
To give the console the venue's location (it had none), world_sky now emits
/gs/sky/lat,lon; config.json declares sky.lat/lon and quake.lat/lon so the eye can
place "here" and the quakes. (sats.* signals + routes already landed with world_sats.)
Verified: full viz parses/runs with the groove self-check passing and zero console
errors; an isolated harness renders the REAL overlay code into a coherent world-map
with every layer; and an end-to-end run (feeds -> hub -> WS) delivers all the eye's
input signals. Adversarial review found one wrap bug — the ISS trail streaking
across the map at the ±180° antimeridian — now fixed by breaking the polyline at the
seam (verified: a seam-crossing sine trail renders split, no full-width streak).

The sky's own schedule joins the orchestra. Unlike world_iss (which begs a web
API per position), world_sats fetches TLEs once from Celestrak — the stations
plus the named recon birds GAOFEN and COSMOS — caches them to
~/.cache/godverse/tles.txt (24 h freshness, atomic writes, stale-on-failure),
and propagates every craft locally with SGP4 at any rate, no per-fix HTTP.
For the venue city (--lat/--lon, retargeted by run.py) it computes each craft's
elevation above the horizon and emits:
/gs/sats/best_elev highest elevation among all tracked (-30..90 deg)
/gs/sats/overhead_count how many above 10 deg
/gs/sats/iss_lat/iss_lon ISS sweep (available even without world_iss)
/gs/sats/recon_elev best elevation among only the GAOFEN/COSMOS watchers
/gs/sats/pass.event impulse when any craft crosses rising through 30 deg
Wiring: config.json declares the six signals with norm ranges + labels, three
starter routes (best_elev -> pad.brightness, pass -> delay.feedback,
recon_elev -> lfo.rate) and adds sats.best_elev to the cosmos group; run.py adds
the worker to the WORLD profile and the lat/lon retarget set; requirements notes
the pure-python sgp4 dep. The worker is import-safe (sits out if sgp4 is absent)
and exits politely with no cache and no network. Grimoire + manual entry added.
Math ported from GODSIGH's verified satellites layer: TLE -> Satrec.twoline2rv
(handles no_kozai), SGP4 -> TEME km, GMST rotation -> WGS-84 geodetic, then an
ECEF up-vector for elevation. Verified end-to-end against live Celestrak data:
98 sats tracked, ISS position/altitude plausible, and all signals arrive over
the hub WebSocket correctly normalized with their routes active.

Feature-gap analysis of local/groove-editor (c0c3a98) vs current main showed
godrum independently built almost everything the branch had — per-step
velocity/chance/ratchet, euclid, swing/humanize, scale/root, Play-One stacks,
Follow Actions. The one genuine, valuable gap was NOTE LENGTH (the "key-roll"):
main's notes were all one-16th. Ported that natively; skipped the rest as either
already-covered, a deliberate divergence (global scale, Play-One vs polyphony),
or too invasive to land without regressing godrum (clip-length/polymeter would
rewrite the fixed-16 architecture that migrateSeq/arranger/beat/commune assume).
What landed (all back-compat; len defaults to 1 = one 16th, so old patches are
unchanged except un-ratcheted sequenced notes now gate to their drawn length —
which is the feature):
- len[16] on seqFor/drumSeqFor + migrateSeq back-fill + two self-check guards
- attachNoteLengths(): .seqnote overlay blocks with an ew-resize drag handle,
used by the voice-inspector roll and the arranger grooves-tab roll; len is
per-voice (shared across A/B/C clips) exactly like vel/chance/rat
- playback: seqTick gates rat==1 notes to len*sixteenth; Synth.pluck gains an
optional durMs (null = byte-for-byte the old natural decay); ratchets unchanged
- MIDI: export emits length-scaled note-offs with a same-pitch overlap clamp;
live midiPluck now tracks pending offs per (channel,pitch) so a held note
retriggered on its own pitch ends cleanly instead of being cut by a stale off
- grimoire + regenerated manual
Verified: groove self-check passes (incl. len guards); an isolated harness
confirms overlay render/drag/clamp at both grid sizes + Play-One stacks + the
getter that keeps overlays in sync when the arranger swaps sq.steps per bar.
The reference branch local/groove-editor is the only copy of this work and is
deleted now that note-length is landed and pushed.

Stage 4 docs. Four entries added to the grimoire's living-patch list, alongside
the groove-grids/tracks/Groove entries, in the house voice:
- 🥁 the beat — five drum lanes on the godtime clock; draw/▶; velocity/chance/
ratchet; ⬢ euclid; the feel shared with tracks; the 🎛 kit drawer incl. duck
("the kick parts the sea"); saves with the patch; moods never silence it; a
beat drawn in zero counts as a build.
- keys 1–5 & ⏺ rec — finger-drum the kit (⇧ ghost); rec quantizes taps to the
nearest sixteenth.
- 🌾 AMPLER — "there is ample, for god is abundant": capture the sounding world
(a fed tab counts), chop 8/16, audition, ⇄ reverse, seat slices onto voices;
slices ride level/pan/duck/choke; session-only.
- the beat leaves the building — GM drums on MIDI channel 10 (36/38/39/42/46)
and a ch-10 track in export .mid.
viz/manual.html regenerated via build_manual.py (27 sections, self-check ok).
GODSTRUMENT_MANUAL_SOURCE.md left untouched (viz/index.html is canon).

A 13-agent adversarial whole-app sweep (client controls / runtime / server-auth /
new features / feed-config-honesty, each finding reproduced-or-refuted) found ZERO
broken functions — verdict healthy. Fixed the reachable low-severity edges it did
confirm:
- viz/index.html:1804 — arranger 'grooves' tab threw TypeError (nSel.isNote) when
dests is empty in the cold-connect window (post-sign-in, pre-WS-hello). Guard:
dests.get(arrSelKey) || {isNote:false} (the 'clips' tab already tolerates empty).
- viz/index.html — picking a skin from the sky menu / F4 next-skin / F4 prev while
in ZERO mode force-enabled an invisible, un-toggleable chakraMode (every clear
path is zeroMode-guarded). Added the same !zeroMode guard to all three sites
(byte-identical outside zero — no regression).
- hub.py:117 — GODSTRUMENT_READONLY parse treated any non-empty non-'0' value as
true (so 'false'/'no'/'off' enabled read-only). Now an explicit truthy set
{1,true,yes,on}; prod uses '1' → stays read-only (verified before deploy).
- viz/index.html:2996 — removed a dead else branch in zero 'save as vibe' (its
'vibes land in the next update' placeholder was unreachable; saveVibe is a real
sibling method) → call this.saveVibe(gk) directly.
- transform.py:40 — collapsed a no-op ternary (both branches float(v)).
- viz/manual.html — regenerated (was stale vs build_manual.py; picked up the
admin-panel CSS added in 764e28b; grimoire prose was already in sync).
Left as documented cosmetic: sanitizeVibe caps emoji at 2 code points (can split a
ZWJ/flag glyph on a shared vibe — display only, no XSS). Verified: node --check,
all .py compile, auth --selftest green, app boots into zero clean, console clean.

The public site only had the in-app grimoire (behind the ✦ overlay); there was no
shareable, linkable user manual. build_manual.py extracts the grimoire (the canon,
per CLAUDE.md) + its styles from viz/index.html into a self-contained, always-
visible page with a generated 27-section table of contents and a 'play the
instrument →' back-link. Single source → no drift; re-run after editing the grimoire.
Served at godstrument.pro/manual.html (docroot is viz/). Verified: renders as a
normal page (overlay/close-button overridden away), TOC anchors resolve, all
feature sections present (zero, OMNI panel, vibes, dimensions), console clean.
Also refine the deploy convention: exclude dev docs/scripts (CLAUDE.md, README,
ZERO_OMNI_BRIEF.md, GODSTRUMENT_MANUAL_SOURCE.md, godstrument.txt, build_manual.py,
tests) so working notes never land on the public box.
