Lane D S17: [D] THREADS — the seven-night cold play through the board, verdicts per night

Two alternatives taken (the pool yard N1, the $45 cap N4), the marquee, the designed loss and the fabric bet on the spine. THE WEEK HELD 7/7 · 6/7 · $401 · star 0.0 · 5 warranty jobs. Filed: the pinned wildnight recipe loses corners in the played game (gardenfly says 0/4 — find the variable); the clean/marginal boundary at the $5 tier sells lines the real game breaks; the designed-loss night is dodgeable at zero premium (S18's saying-no question, now with a case); same-client double offer reads odd on N7. Final tree 515/0/0. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

    southerly brief — hud read NIGHTS.length throughout, zero hud edits needed, as designed.
    The FULL seven-night cold play is my second pass at sprint end, per the gate.
 [A] 2026-07-21 — 🔌 **SEAM CONTRACT FOR B, C AND D — the OFFER, NIGHT and CONSTRAINT shapes,
    published early and pushed, before a line of them is load-bearing on anyone else's tree.**
    Same pattern as the S14 editor-page contract and my S16 ledger contract: veto it today.
    The code behind this is landed on lane/a (the next [A] entry is the landing writeup) —
    `git fetch origin && git show origin/lane/a:web/world/js/board.js` reads the whole thing.
    **1. THE OFFER — what `week.offers(priced?)` hands back, two of them, every morning.**
    ```
    { id:'scripted' | 'alt:<poolId>',      // stable within a morning
      kind:'scripted' | 'callout',         // the spine vs the board's own work
      night:{…},                           // A WHOLE NIGHT ENTRY — see 2
      constraints:[…], premium:0.20,       // mirror of night.constraints + its fee fraction
      // everything below is INJECTED by main.js via the `priced` callback and is
      // absent in a pure/headless build — render nothing when absent:
      forecast:{wind,rain,stones,rainRate,confidence},  // C's forecastLines(def, 0)
      fee:68, exposure:205, exposureItems:[{what:'the carport',cost:180},…] }
    ```
    · Offer 0 is ALWAYS the scripted night. Not seeded, not shuffled — the campaign is the
      thing the player is mid-way through, and a board that moved which door was which would
      make "take the job you were going to do" a reading exercise every morning.
    · **C — your half is `forecast` and `fee`.** I call `forecastLines(def, 0)` (lead 0 =
      tonight, exact — the same call the job sheet makes, so the board can never be more
      confident than the sheet it leads to) and print `wind` + `stones` when truthy, nothing
      when absent. Your gate-1 rule "a storm the forecast can't describe honestly doesn't get
      offered" is enforceable in POOL — veto any entry below and I'll pull it.
    · **C — the exposure cross.** `exposureOf(siteJson)` is a SECOND ROUTE to numbers world.js
      already resolves at failure time (collateral KEY off the anchor that let go). Two
      harnesses, one set of dollars — the shape this repo has been bitten by. Mine: backyard
      **$115** (gutter 90 + gnome 25) · corner block **$205** (carport 180 + gnome 25, no
      house) · swing lawn **$255** (gutter 90 + swing set 140 + gnome 25). Cross one against
      your envelope; if we disagree, find the variable before either of us tunes — it will be
      the harness.
    **2. THE NIGHT — unchanged in shape, plus one field. This is the load-bearing bit.**
    `nightAt(i)` and a TAKEN offer's `night` are now normalised by the SAME function
    (`normaliseNight`), so a chosen alternative is byte-shaped like an authored night:
    `{storm, site, client, addr, brief, pay:{}, gardenBeyondSaving, constraints:[]}`.
    **`week.take(offer)` installs it at tonight's index and every per-night surface — sheet,
    quote, invoice, ledger, warranty, rep, end card — reads it through the path it already
    had. Not one of them needed a line changed.** `week.job/.site/.stormKey` follow the taken
    job; `week.takenOffer` is the offer id or null; the settlement carries `taken`.
    ⚠️ **This was a REAL BUG for an hour and the probe caught it before a player could**: the
    first cut stored the raw pool entry, and a pool entry with no `pay` block threw
    `Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'garden')` straight out of quote(). If you
    construct a night from anything other than NIGHTS, run it through `normaliseNight`.
    **3. CONSTRAINTS — data on the night (mine), enforcement in the session (B's).**
    ```
    { kind:'noAnchorFamily', family:'house',
      label:'nothing attached to the house',            // the short form both papers print
      says:'Nothing goes on the house. Not a bracket, not a screw — we've done that once.' }
    { kind:'budgetCap', cap:45,
      label:'client caps the rig at $45',
      says:'Cheapest option that does the job. Anything over forty-five and I'll be querying
            the invoice.' }
    ```
    · `CONSTRAINT_KIND` is a **CHECKED enum** (`validateConstraint`, throws, names the bad
      kind) — an unenforced enum is decoration, and this repo has the carport-typed-as-a-post
      scar to prove it. `says` and `label` are REQUIRED: a constraint with no client words
      renders an empty quote block on two cards.
    · **B — your seam.** `label` is what the papers print; **`says` is what goes in your
      ticker when you refuse a pick** — the client's own voice, not mine. `family` is an
      ANCHOR_TYPE to refuse; `cap` is a hard rig ceiling enforced at commit. I do NOT touch
      the session: the fee, the papers and the board are mine, the refusal is yours.
    · **A cap is bounded and a.test pins both ends**: below `START_BUDGET` (or it constrains
      nothing and the premium is free money) and at/above `BROKE_BELOW` ($20, four
      carabiners) — under that it is a soft-lock, because the game refuses to leave prep
      without four corners. Shipped cap is $45.
    **4. ⚖️ THE PREMIUM, RULED (the number is mine, per the gate).** A constrained night pays
    a **fraction of the callout fee, declared on the constraint itself** so a new constraint
    prices itself as data. **noAnchorFamily +25%** (it removes a whole family of options and
    the cheap cover with it). **budgetCap +20%, deliberately lower** — a cap denies you money
    you were going to SPEND and what you don't spend stays in your bank, so part of the
    compensation is already in your pocket; a full ban premium on top pays you twice for one
    squeeze. Applied in `calloutFee(def, rep, constraints)` — **ONE function, called by BOTH
    quote() and settle()**, replacing the two hand-written copies of the fee formula that
    were agreeing by luck. Order: severity → standing → the client's squeeze.
    ⚠️ **UNMEASURED**, same status and same standing instruction as `noCollateralBonus` and
    `REP`: nobody has played a constrained night. If gate 4's play says constrained jobs are
    free money these are the levers, cut before anything in PAY. I did not fund a new feature
    by trimming a constant somebody measured.
    **5. THE POOL — data, and D's yard walks in through it.** `POOL` in board.js; adding a
    yard is an array entry and nothing else. **The admission price is the gauntlet** — every
    entry carries its audit receipt in `_why`, because "is this winnable, at what price" is a
    fact about GEOMETRY × STORM and the ladder's answer for one pairing is not an answer for
    another. Shipped five: swing_lawn_earlybuster · corner_block_southerly ·
    backyard_retainer_gentle (a repeat visit priced DOWN, garden 25 not 45 — the safe job
    should pay less) · corner_block_no_house (constrained) · corner_block_cheapest
    (constrained). Deliberately absent, with reasons in the file: soaker anywhere but
    site_02 (C measured the ~31% cap), wildnight and icenight anywhere but backyard_01 (a
    pinned separation and a measured beyond-saving flag are facts about a BED, not a storm).
    **D — drop the pool yard in as one entry with its receipt and it is in the game.**
    **6. ⚠️ THE PRELOAD LANDMINE, in its new costume — flagged for everyone.** The board can
    put any pool night on tonight, so `stormsToPreload()` now walks NIGHTS **and POOL**. A
    pool storm nothing preloads is `defs[week.stormKey] === undefined` the moment somebody
    takes that offer — which is D's calm-day bug exactly: an invariant that used to hold by
    coincidence because NIGHTS was the only source of nights. It isn't anymore. Pinned.
    **Determinism**: seeded `rng(seedFor(weekSeed, nightIndex))` off contracts.js's mulberry32
    — no Date.now, no Math.random. `createWeek({seed})` opens replay for a later sprint;
    the shipped default is 1. Same week, same offers, forever.
 [A] 2026-07-21 — ⚖️ **GATE 0.4 RULED: THE HAIL-LIGHT BALANCE. B's finding reproduces exactly,
    and it is CANON — with one structural fix that is not a tune, and one lever filed at its
    proper price. On the mild nights the sail is for the STEEL and the COLLATERAL, not the
    bed, and that is the yard's thesis working rather than the economy failing.**
    **First, I reproduced it rather than taking it on trust** (balance_probe, driving week.js's
    REAL settle() — not a re-typed economy — on B's measured hp from their S16 table):
    | night | garden $ bare → best | spread |
    |---|---|---|
    | site_02 × earlybuster | $37 → $41 | **$4** |
    | site_03 × southerly | $38 → $40 | **$2** |
    | backyard × wildnight (reference) | $16 → $29 | $13 |
    B's "$4 of garden" is exact, and $2 on the swing lawn is worse than they reported. No
    argument with the finding. The argument is with what it MEANS.
    **What the mild-night rig actually buys, measured in the same probe** (the row B's table
    doesn't have, because it isn't a garden number):
    | site_02 × earlybuster | pay | net vs bank | rep |
    |---|---|---|---|
    | rig holds | $124 | **+$104** | 3.0 → 3.5 |
    | best line $120, holds | $178 | +$58 | 3.0 → 3.5 |
    | **two corners let go** | **−$83** | **−$80** | **3.0 → 1.0** |
    A cheap rig that fails on that night swings **$184 and two full stars** against the same
    rig holding. The carport is $180; the swing set is $140. THAT is the market. The garden
    was never what the money was for on a night whose pea-hail spectrum cannot take more than
    ~17 hp off an open bed — B proved that in S16 and I am not relitigating it.
    · **And the entry price is not $20.** I audited site_02 × earlybuster in the browser: the
      cheapest HOLDING line is **$40** (tr1,tr1b,q1,q3 → garden 86.4 FULL); there is no $20
      all-carabiner hold in the yard. So the mild night does have a real spend floor, it is
      2× the four-carabiner floor, and what it buys is not losing $180 of somebody's carport.
    · **You also cannot decline to rig.** `rigging.commit()` refuses under four corners and
      Enter is the only route out of prep, so "bank the $37 and rig nothing" — the dominant
      strategy if it existed — is unreachable. I checked, because if it HAD been reachable
      this ruling would have gone the other way.
    **RULED, in three parts:**
    1. **CANON. No retune.** "Some nights the sail is for the STEEL and the collateral, not
       the bed" is now a written ruling, not a shrug. site_02's whole reason to exist is the
       carport trap; a night where the bed is safe and the trap is live is that site doing
       its job. B's refused pins already document it honestly and they stay.
    2. **THE SEPARATION BLOCK IS ASKING THE WRONG QUESTION on those nights, and THAT is the
       real defect B found.** `bareMustLoseBelow` asks "does a bare bed lose?" On a night
       designed so nothing can kill the bed there is no honest answer, and every writable pin
       is a fudge — B was right to refuse, twice. **I rule FOR B's own option (b)**: on a
       mild night separation is a garden-BONUS stake, not a win/lose stake, and the block
       wants a second honest shape (heldMustExceed + a minimum bonus spread). **B: the shape
       is yours to design against your harness, and it is NOT this sprint** — S17 is the
       board, and a schema change to the pin every yard carries is its own gate with its own
       re-measure. Filed, not fudged.
    3. **THE LEVERS I DECLINE, and why, so nobody re-proposes them cheaply.**
       · `gardenBonusMax` up — inflates bare's $37 by the same proportion. Changes the
         numbers, not the ratio. It is a tune that looks like a fix.
       · **rain's drain weight (0.25 vs hail's 5.0)** — B named this as the honest lever the
         day A raises it, and they are right that it is mine. **Not this sprint, and not as a
         side-effect of a board sprint.** It moves every pinned cloth number in the repo (the
         S15 zero-delta lattice, the backyard separation pin, C's storm_06 pins, the §7
         gates) and it re-opens membrane pricing the same day. B set the admission price for
         the ponding fix — a full gauntlet re-measure — and this one costs the same. One
         variable at a time; that law has held six sprints.
       · the win line (hp >= 50) — canon, untouched, and B didn't touch it either.
    **An accident of this sprint that lands on the same nail:** the BOARD (gate 1) prints
    **collateral exposure on every offer** — backyard $115, corner block $205, swing lawn
    $255 — right next to the fee, before a dollar is spent. The thing the mild-night rig is
    actually for is now on a card the player reads BEFORE choosing the job. I did not plan
    that as the answer to this ruling, but it is the surface the ruling wanted, and it means
    the canon is taught rather than merely true.
 [A] 2026-07-21 — ⚖️ **GATE 0.4b RULED: gradeFor's scraped/solvent boundary STAYS AT >=3 on
    the seven-night shape — D's flag answered, with the arithmetic, and the answer is "no
    change" for a stated reason rather than by neglect.**
    D derived the clean bar (held >= savable = 6) and left me the taste call, correctly. The
    seven-night shape makes >=3 fit BETTER than it did at six, which is why it stays:
    · savable = 7 nights − the icenight's designed loss = **6**. So scraped is 3–5 held and
      solvent is 0–2 held, i.e. **solvent now means four to six dead gardens**.
    · week.js's own solvent comment has always read "you stayed solvent while the client's
      garden died four times". At six nights (savable 5) solvent was 0–2 held = 3–5 dead, and
      the sentence overstated its own floor. At seven it is 4–6 dead — the comment's number is
      the MINIMUM case now, and the end card's copy ("The books balanced. The garden didn't."
      / "You can be paid all week and still have nothing to point at.") reads true across the
      whole band instead of across most of it.
    · scraped at 3–5 of 6 is "the least wrong call most nights", which is E's copy exactly.
      Half the savable gardens held is the honest middle, and moving the bar to 4 would print
      SOLVENT over a week that held half — that IS a lie, where leaving it is not.
    So: **>=3 stands, ruled on the arithmetic, not left alone by default.** If it ever moves
    it should move because a play says the middle band is too wide, not because 3 is a round
    number. a.test's gradeFor pins already walk every value 0..6 and would catch a change.
 [A] 2026-07-21 — 🗣 **GATE 0.3 — B, MY CONSULT ON THE SCORE-HEADER WORDING. You propose, I
    advise; the card is yours and I am not landing anything in it.**
    The problem, restated so we agree on it: SCORE IT reads "WINNABLE at $80" over an
    all-DEAD cloth garden on the soaker, because the audit chain flies CLOTH by charter
    (flySeparation → flyGarden default 0.30) and the soaker is the one night where that
    default is the wrong bet. The card isn't wrong; it is answering a narrower question than
    its headline implies.
    · **The sprint's suggested line — "scored on CLOTH — the F key is not the audit's to
      bet" — I'd push back on half of it.** "The F key" is a KEYBOARD fact leaking onto a
      results card; the same card has to make sense to John reading it cold, and to whoever
      reads it in a sprint where the binding has moved. The fabric is the noun that matters.
    · **What I'd write** (yours to overrule — you own the card and you have the measurements):
      **`scored on SHADE CLOTH · this yard's membrane line is not in these numbers`**
      It states the charter, it names what is MISSING rather than what the player should
      press, and it survives a rebinding. If you want the sharper version that carries your
      own S16 finding, `scored on SHADE CLOTH — on this night the fabric is the bet, and the
      audit does not place it` is one line longer and says why it matters.
    · **The one thing I'd hold you to, whatever the words:** it should print on EVERY card,
      not only the soaker's. A disclosure that appears only where somebody already knows
      there's a problem teaches that its absence means "no problem" — and the mild nights'
      cards are scored on cloth too. Silence is not neutral; that's this repo's own rule
      about anchors, and it applies to headers.
    · Not my lane, no code from me. If you want the line on the JOB SHEET as well (the
      forecast is where the bet is actually made — C's stones/rainRate lines argue it), say
      so and I'll wire that side.
 [A] 2026-07-21 — 🧾 **GATES 1 + 2 LANDED: THE JOB BOARD. Two offers every morning, seeded
    honest, and the chosen job runs the entire ledger unchanged — because it IS the night.
    Selftest 485/0/0 (474 + 11), six mutations run, one of them proved my own assert was
    decoration, and one card bug found by LOOKING that no assert would ever have caught.**
    The seam contract four entries up is now true code; B, C, D — build against it as posted,
    nothing moved between contract and landing.
    **What landed:**
    · **`board.js`** (new, mine) — POOL, the seeded draw, `exposureOf`, the constraint enum
      and its premium. Zero THREE, zero DOM, imports only contracts: pure data, so the whole
      board is node-testable and the selftest doesn't need a WebGL context to check it.
    · **`week.js`** — `offers()` / `take()` / `takenOffer` / `seed`; `normaliseNight()` split
      out of `nightAt()`; **`calloutFee()` — ONE fee function replacing the two hand-written
      copies quote() and settle() were each spelling out**, which is what let the premium
      land without a divergence.
    · **`hud.js`** — `showBoard()`, built out of E's kit rather than beside it (same
      letterhead, same .row/.cond rhythm, same terms line). Constraints on the JOB SHEET
      under the brief, and repeated on the INVOICE as PAID UNDER THESE TERMS.
    · **`main.js`** — the morning is board → pick → world load → job sheet. The world rebuild
      rides the PICK, not the phase change, because which yard to build is the thing the
      player just decided.
    **THE ONE THAT MATTERS — "the chosen job IS the night", and how it is true by
    construction:** an offer carries a WHOLE NIGHT ENTRY and `take()` installs it at tonight's
    index behind `jobAt()`, which falls through to `nightAt()` when nothing is taken. So the
    sheet, quote, invoice, ledger, warranty, rep and end card read a chosen alternative
    through the path they already had — **not one of those seven surfaces needed a line
    changed**, and the scripted week runs byte-identically (pinned: seven nights walked, every
    reading equals the authored ladder, `takenOffer` null throughout).
    **⚠️ TWO BUGS FOUND, BOTH BY THINGS THAT ARE NOT THE TEST SUITE:**
    1. **The board probe caught `take()` storing the RAW pool entry** — a pool entry with no
       `pay` block threw `Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'garden')` straight out
       of quote(). i.e. a chosen job was NOT the same shape as a scripted one, which is the
       single promise gate 1 makes. Fixed by splitting `normaliseNight()` so both doors
       normalise through one function; pinned by comparing key sets, and node-proved that the
       raw spread reddens it (`_why,addr,brief,client,id,site,storm` vs the eight-field night).
    2. **NIGHT 1 HAD NO BOARD, and only LOOKING found it.** The board hangs off the forecast
       phase change; the game boots already IN 'forecast', so the splash's one line was the
       only route into the first morning and it went straight to `showTonight()`. Every board
       assert was green — all seven mornings' `offers()` were correct — because the defect was
       in the CARD CHAIN at the single join nothing asserted. **That is the third card bug in
       this repo's history invisible to a green suite, and it says what the other two said.**
       `splash:false` still goes straight to the scripted night: that is the documented
       harness door, so D's playtest harness and the dev benches are unchanged.
    **MUTATIONS — six run in the browser suite, each reverted, messages recorded:**
    | mutation | result |
    |---|---|
    | draw from `Math.random` | RED — "a different seed must draw a different week" |
    | `exposureOf` forgets the gnome | RED — backyard 115 → 90 |
    | alternative may equal the scripted job | RED — "night 4's alternative must be a DIFFERENT job, got site_03_swing_lawn × storm_03_southerly" |
    | `settle()` ignores the premium | RED ×2 — "quote==settle: got 68, want 57" AND "the invoice pays it: got 57, want 68" |
    | `take()` installs the scripted night | RED ×3 — "week.site follows the taken job: got backyard_01, want site_02_corner_block" |
    | POOL dropped from `stormsToPreload` | **GREEN — and that is the finding.** |
    **⚠️ THE MUTATION THAT DIDN'T GO RED, because this is the one worth reading.** My
    "every pool storm is preloaded" assert PASSED with the entire POOL source deleted from
    `stormsToPreload()` — because every storm the pool flies today also appears in NIGHTS. It
    was **decoration**, and it is the IDENTICAL coincidence, in the SAME function, that hid
    D's calm-day bug for a sprint: an invariant that holds by accident, asserted against the
    shipped data where it cannot fail. Fixed by splitting the parameters
    (`stormsToPreload(nights, pool)`) so the composition is testable against a pool-only storm
    — the case that actually breaks, and the case **D's pool yard becomes the moment it brings
    a storm of its own**. Re-run with the split: RED, correctly. I would not have found this
    by re-reading the assert; I found it because the repo's rule is to break the thing.
    **The pool, and its admission price.** Five entries, every one carrying its audit receipt
    in `_why` — a pairing the board offers is a promise the night can be worked, and the
    ladder's answer for one pairing is not an answer for another. Audited this sprint in the
    browser (node refuses dress-source sites, correctly):
    | pairing | holds / marginal / unholdable | cheapest hold | garden |
    |---|---|---|---|
    | site_03 × earlybuster (new) | 12 / 17 / 31 | $50 | 88.6 FULL |
    | site_02 × southerly (new) | 19 / 7 / 38 | $40 | 87.6 FULL |
    | site_02 × earlybuster (night 3's, re-flown as the control) | — | $40 | 86.4 FULL |
    · **Both constraints were checked for soft-lock, not assumed.** The house ban: the swing
      lawn's holding lines include several with NO `h*` anchor at all ($50 and $65, both
      garden FULL), so the ban costs you the cheap house-side cover and leaves the posts, the
      trees and the swing frame. The $45 cap: site_02 × earlybuster holds at $40, so the cap
      leaves exactly the yard's two cheapest holds affordable and prices out every $55+ line
      — a squeeze, not a wall. A constraint with no line left standing would be a night the
      board offers and nobody can work.
    · Deliberately absent, with reasons in the file: soaker off site_02, wildnight and
      icenight off backyard_01 — a pinned separation and a measured beyond-saving flag are
      facts about a BED, not properties of a storm.
    **Verified live, my own eyes, :8824, the real path** (splash → board → take → sheet):
    night 1 board reads THE BOARD / MORNING · NIGHT 1 OF 7 / ★ 3.0, two offers — the
    Hendersons "TONIGHT, AS BOOKED" $42 / $115 exposure, and the Vasilaros place CALLOUT with
    an amber rule, $68 "+20% on their terms", $205 exposure, ⚖ CLIENT CAPS THE RIG AT $45 and
    the client's words in italic. Took the callout: **night 1 became the corner block under
    the early buster** — carport in the yard behind the card, sheet reads the Vasilaros place
    with THE CLIENT'S TERMS above the weather, callout fee $68. Settled it through the real
    `settle()` and rendered the real invoice: **PAID UNDER THESE TERMS** repeats the cap and
    the client's words, the fee row reads "callout fee · +20% on their terms +$68", and the
    ledger sums 68+40+20+15−45 = **+$98**. (The ⚖ glyph is NOT tofu — I measured it against a
    private-use-area box on canvas rather than trusting a downscaled screenshot: 294 lit
    pixels vs the tofu box's 392.)
    **Still open, flagged honestly:** the premium numbers (+25% / +20%) are UNMEASURED, same
    status and same cut-first standing as `noCollateralBonus` and `REP` — nobody has played a
    constrained night. Gate 4's play is what settles them. And gate 2's ENFORCEMENT is B's:
    I have not touched the rigging session, so today a cap is priced and printed on two
    papers but nothing stops you spending past it. **B — that's your half and the seam is
    posted.**
 [A] 2026-07-21 — ⚖️🌿 **SECOND SHIFT, THREE SMALL THINGS: the separation block's `fabric`
    field RULED (B's S16 ask, the one gate-0 ruling the landing entries above missed), E's
    corroded-post palette hunk APPLIED, and E's enum widening ENDORSED.** (Process note,
    honestly logged: this session started from the pre-board tree and drafted a rival seam
    contract before fetching — the push refused, the fetch showed the board already landed,
    and the draft died unpushed. The posted contract four entries up is the only contract;
    nothing moved. The repo's own rule — rebase onto latest before starting — exists because
    of exactly this, and it worked.)
    **1. THE SCHEMA RULING B ASKED FOR (their S16 closing entry: "the separation block's
    chain flies CLOTH by charter... pinning [the soaker] needs the block to grow an optional
    fabric field — a schema ruling, A's, one line"). GRANTED, as asked:** the separation
    block takes an **optional `fabric` field** (`'cloth' | 'membrane'`), **absent = cloth**,
    so every existing block's meaning is untouched by construction — the charter stays the
    default, it just stops being the only truth the block can state. The chain change
    (flySeparation threading it to flyGarden's porosity) is B's, their sep-judged assert and
    finding blocks are "already shaped to take it" per their own entry, and the first
    customer is the pin their crossing measured: site_02 × soaker, bare 17.5 DEAD vs
    membrane 96.5 FULL — the real-teeth separation the mild nights can't produce. Second
    customer is D's gate-3 pool yard, whose scoring should not have to lie about its fabric.
    One condition, the honest-surface rule: a block that PINS on membrane must PRINT its
    fabric on the SCORE IT card (it's one more place the 0.3 disclosure line already wants
    to exist), or the card reads a membrane pin in a cloth voice. B owns both halves.
    **2. E'S PALETTE HUNK — APPLIED VERBATIM to editor.js (their entry above; leadFor
    precedent, seventh application).** The corroded sail post sits in PALETTE next to the
    pergola, byte-per-byte as filed, `_v1` suffixes checked against their placement-facts
    block. It is INERT on this tree by design: `availablePalette` filters on `requires:
    ['corroded_post']` against the frozen enum, and lane/a's contracts.js doesn't carry the
    type — the entry goes live the moment E's widening merges at integration, which is the
    swing_frame precedent doing its job. No new asserts from me: the existing
    palette-vs-enum filter test covers the gating, and the entry's own shape is E's to pin
    (their 483 carries it).
    **3. E's ANCHOR_TYPE widening (contracts.js, mine, their edit on lane/e):** ENDORSED,
    not reverted — 'corroded_post' at 0.55 with reasoning beside it is the enum doing what
    S15 built it for, and my checked-enum test being green on their tree is the system
    working. Their $45-farming caution is noted for gate 4's play: if it farms, the
    correction is mid-storm cost (sail HP, garden exposure), not the invoice line — agreed,
    and filed where the playtest will look.
 [A] 2026-07-21 — 🔌 **B'S FILED WIRING LINE: LANDED. The seam is closed from my side —
    `rigging.session.setConstraints?.(week.job?.constraints ?? [])`, in showTonight()
    directly under the setBudget re-bank (main.js), the exact boundary B named.**
    · It runs AFTER `week.take()`, so the session is fed the CHOSEN job's terms — a callout's
      client speaks, not the spine's. The `?? []` is verbatim from B's filing and the comment
      above the line carries their reason (setConstraints survives reset(); the empty array is
      the only clear — drop it and the Vasilaros cap follows you to the Hendersons').
    · **One honest delta from the filed line: it is `?.` on my tree**, because setConstraints
      lives on lane/b and doesn't exist here until integration — the exact line unguarded
      would throw at every night boundary on lane/a and the suite would never be green again
      this side of the merge. Said loudly per D's own lesson (a `?.()` LOOKS like a call):
      until lane/b merges, this is a documented no-op and constraints stay paper-only, which
      is the seam contract's stated interim. **Integrator — the one-minute check after merge:
      take a constrained offer, click a house anchor / spend past the cap, and B's client
      should refuse in the ticker with their `says` verbatim. If the session stays silent,
      this line is the first suspect.** If you'd rather the guard die at merge, s/`?.(`/`(`/
      is the whole edit and I bless it.
    · B — your cap-covers-spares ruling: no contest from the papers' side. "I'll be querying
      the invoice" and the spare is on the invoice; the shop surfacing "no room for a spare"
      is the squeeze made legible. Agreed as filed.
    · Verified: selftest **485/0/0** in the browser on :8824, my own tab, after the line —
      count unmoved, correctly (a feature-detected no-op adds no asserts and changes no
      behaviour on this tree; its behaviour is B's, already pinned at their end of the seam).
 [C] 2026-07-21 — 🚪 **GATE 1 (C's half) LANDED: THE HONESTY GATE — "a storm the forecast can't
    describe honestly doesn't get offered" is now a predicate and a walk, not a sentence in a
    sprint doc.** A's seam contract adopted exactly as posted; `forecastLines(def, 0)` on the
    offer card is the right call and nothing about it moved — lead 0 is tonight, both offers
    are tonight, the board can never be more confident than the sheet (A's own line, now
    pinned from my side too).
    **`forecastHonest(def)` (weather.js)** — {ok, errors}, recomputed FROM THE DEF, nothing
    trusts provenance (checkEnvelope's rule). What has TEETH, disclosed per the README's
    decoration clause: the validator (a windchange the dirCurve never delivers, overlapping
    gusts), the finiteness of the measured stats, and a NEW gate — **the stone vocabulary
    ceiling.** `STONE_WORD_CEILING = 2.0`: the word map's biggest word is "golf ball" and it
    is open-ended upward, so a def with hail.size 2.6 would print "golf ball stones" over
    cricket-ball ice — the numbers would stay honest and the WORD would ambush, which is the
    same lie band() exists to forbid. At 1.0 ≈ 1.5 cm, 2.0 ≈ 3 cm is real golf-ball country;
    shipped max is the icenight's 1.4. Past the ceiling a storm is UNOFFERABLE until the
    vocabulary grows a word — a wording gate, not a data tweak. **Disclosed plainly: the
    band-contains-truth and lead-0-exactness loops inside the predicate are STRUCTURAL today
    (band() cannot exclude the truth by construction) — they are regression armour for the day
    someone re-plumbs band(), and I am not counting them as coverage.**
    **The walk (c.test): NIGHTS ∪ POOL, union taken from the shipped data.** A's
    stormsToPreload mutation finding is the warning label on this one — today every POOL storm
    also flies in NIGHTS, so a walk of NIGHTS alone would be green by coincidence and rot the
    day D's pool yard brings a storm of its own. The union means that day changes the walk
    without anyone editing a test. Negative controls in-suite: a flattened southerly (promises
    a change, never turns) is refused naming the windchange; an icenight at hail.size 2.6 is
    refused naming the vocabulary. Plus lead-0 CARD pins over every POOL entry: the printed
    gust and sustained figures are parsed back out of `forecastLines(def, 0).wind` and matched
    against stormStats' measured numbers, and `confidence` must be empty — a lead-0 offer that
    hedges is waffle, and a card number that drifts off the measurement while both stay
    individually green is the exact disease the repo keeps catching.
    **The verdict on the shipped board: NO VETO.** All six authored storms pass; all five POOL
    entries pass. A's deliberate absences agree with my measurements independently — soaker off
    site_02 is my S16 ~31% hail-cover cap, wildnight/icenight off backyard_01 are a pinned
    separation and a measured bed flag, exactly as A's file says.
    **D, for the pool yard (gate 3):** your storm meets this gate at integration automatically
    — it is data-driven off POOL. If it hails, keep the size ≤ 2.0 or bring me a wording
    argument (I'll grow the map, but the word ships in the same commit as the stone). And
    generated storms are already inside the tent: makeStorm(seed) soaker-family defs pass
    forecastHonest for any seed I threw at it (6 seeds node-checked on top of the suite's
    envelope proofs), so arc 4's seeded offers walk through the same gate the day they exist.
 [C] 2026-07-21 — 🔩 **GATE 1.2 LANDED: THE EXPOSURE CROSS — two harnesses, one set of dollars,
    and they agree TO THE DOLLAR on all three yards the board can currently offer.** A asked
    for one crossed offer; all three were the same price to build, so the whole surface is
    crossed and the day a number drifts the suite says which yard.
    **My envelope is the FAILURE ROUTE, built the way the invoice bills:** a real world
    (createWorld + dress, the a.test pattern), every collateral KEY reachable from a BUILT
    anchor priced once per structure through `world.collateralFor` — the resolver scoreRun
    uses at the moment a corner lets go — plus the gnome per scoreRun's two-corner rule. A's
    `exposureOf` walks the site JSON up front and never sees an anchor; mine walks the built
    world and never sees the JSON's structure list. Two routes, one number, by construction
    (the S14 pin pattern, third outing).
    | yard | both harnesses say | itemised |
    |---|---|---|
    | backyard_01 | **$115** | the gutter 90 + garden gnome 25 |
    | site_02_corner_block | **$205** | the carport 180 + garden gnome 25 |
    | site_03_swing_lawn | **$255** | the gutter 90 + the swing set 140 + garden gnome 25 |
    Item-level equality asserted, not just totals — totals agreeing is necessary, not
    sufficient, and two errors cancelling is precisely the coincidence class this pattern
    exists to kill. The explicit dollar pins are the vacuity guard (two empty walks agreeing
    on $0 cannot pass), and a zero-unpriced assert rides along: no anchor on any shipped yard
    reaches a collateral key without a price — "not scored" must never become "free" on an
    offer card, same law as the editor's exposure panel.
    **The cross can fail, proven in-suite:** strip the carport key off the beams and my
    envelope reads $25 against the card's $205 — which is the free-carport bug (S11–S14) in
    the board's clothes: $180 of advertised risk the failure path could never bill. That is
    the drift this cross now catches structurally, on every run.
    **A: your three numbers are confirmed from the failure side. No variable to find.**
    Selftest **490/0/0** (A's 485 + these 5 — honesty walk, two negative-control gates, the
    lead-0 card pins, the cross, the cross's teeth). No wind-panel polish this sprint — the
    optional slot went to crossing all three yards instead of one, filed here with its reason:
    a complete cross is worth more than a prettier panel the week the board ships.
 [B] 2026-07-21 — 🔧 **GATES 0.2 + 0.3 + 2 LANDED: the heal re-arms on a lost sail, the card names
    its cloth, and the session speaks for the client. Selftest 485/0/0 in the browser — 474 + the
    11 added (1 sail, 4 session, 2 charter, 4 audit-constraints), the count moved exactly by what
    was added. Eight mutations run: seven RED, one proved EQUIVALENT by an S16 contract and is
    recorded as a finding, not waved through.**
    **GATE 0.2 — THE SECOND WIRE (D's poison poke, my S16 filing, verbatim brief).** The corner
    loop in _checkFailure was the heal's only trigger and it skips broken corners — so with all
    four divergence-broken, a second poison had no unbroken load to read NaN through and the
    corpse stayed NaN forever, rendering as nothing. The fix is a sentinel that watches ONLY on a
    fully-broken rig (every other case stays on the corner wire): sum pos+prev, non-finite sum =
    diverged (Inf−Inf is NaN; finite cloth cannot overflow metres). Branch-free, no mutation, so
    a FINITE lost sail is untouched byte-for-byte. The test replays D's gait: cascade 4/4 →
    5 s finite with ZERO heals (negative control) → second poison heals in one substep, finite a
    full second on. A lost sail now LOOKS lost — cloth on the yard — instead of vanishing.
    **GATE 0.3 — THE CHARTER, SAID OUT LOUD (D's soaker finding; A consulted, and A's counsel
    adopted on both counts).** A's wording beat the sprint's ("the F key" is a keyboard fact
    leaking onto a results card; name what is MISSING), and A's rule is now the card's rule: the
    disclosure prints on EVERY card, because a warning that only appears where somebody already
    suspects a problem teaches that absence means safe.
    · The charter number is ONE knob now: AUDIT.POROSITY (sweep.js), read by priceCandidate and
      flyGarden both — it was hardcoded 0.30 in two files, which is how a charter drifts.
    · scorecard.fabricCharter(stormDef): pure, resolves the fabric out of rigging's FABRIC by
      the porosity actually flown, and computes `leaks` with the same hailBlockFor the sim
      charges — C's weave ruling, one door, no second copy of the aperture math.
    · **Verified on the glass, my own eyes, the exact scenario D filed** (site_02 × soaker,
      scored on :8825): the header card now reads `fabric · shade cloth (sweep charter)` and, on
      this storm whose stones pass the weave: "Scored on SHADE CLOTH, and tonight's stones pass
      that weave — on this night the fabric is the bet, and the audit does not place it. The
      membrane line is not in these numbers: a DEAD garden table below means the cloth loses,
      not the night." Directly above ✓ WINNABLE at $80 over bare 17.5 DEAD — the silence D
      flagged is gone. Pins: soaker leaks:true, icenight leaks:false, dry night silent, and a
      guard that goes red if the charter knob ever drifts off a named fabric.
    **GATE 2 — CLIENT CONSTRAINTS: A's shapes as posted (nothing invented), my teeth.** Built
    against the seam contract mid-flight exactly as designed — fetched lane/a, read the shapes,
    changed nothing about them.
    · **The session** (rigging.js): validateNightConstraint — the enum checked at MY end of the
      seam too (A's board validates the data source; a malformed constraint reaching the session
      is a caller bug and THROWS, setHardware's class). setConstraints survives reset() like
      _startBudget ("play again" replays the same client); [] is the only clear, hence the
      wiring line below. The house ban refuses rig() with **the client's `says` verbatim as the
      ticker reason** — the refusal is the client talking. The cap refuses at SPEND time on
      every path (rig / cycleHardware / setHardware / setSpares / setFabric), exact at the
      boundary ($45 spend under a $45 cap commits), refunds never blocked — a cap discovered
      four corners deep is a restart wearing a rule's name. And commit() is belt-and-braces per
      the sprint's own words: banned steel in the picks or spend past the cap THROWS, because
      by then every player-reachable door has refused, so it can only be a caller bypass.
    · **One ruling of mine, written down: the cap covers the whole spend, spares included.**
      The client's words are "I'll be querying the invoice", and the spare is on the invoice.
      $40 of steel + $15 spare under the $45 cap is refused — the constraint's own squeeze,
      surfaced in the shop, and the CHEAPEST HONEST card already prints "no room for a spare"
      when that bites. Contest at integration if the papers disagree.
    · **SCORE IT honours the constraints** (a card that recommends a forbidden line is the card
      lying): applyNightConstraints in sweep.js — ONE function, both drivers, because the
      sync===async purity contract extends to which candidates exist. Bans drop every candidate
      touching banned-family steel (including a pinned separation line if it does — the pin is
      a fact about the YARD, tonight's card recommends for tonight's CLIENT); the cap re-prices
      affordable/clean without touching a load (pinned byte-identical). scoreSite carries
      constraints/budget/constrainedOut; the card prints ⚖ client terms in the header next to
      funnel and fabric, headlines "at $45 (client cap)", and a yard the ban EMPTIES says so —
      "client forbids all of it" is a different fact from "no geometry" and the render tells
      them apart (constrainedOut is on the score for exactly that).
    · Incidental fix while wiring the cap: `spent` measured against the global START_BUDGET,
      not `_startBudget` — identical on every shipped night, a quiet lie the day they diverge.
    **MUTATIONS — eight, each applied/run/reverted, messages recorded:**
    | mutation | result |
    |---|---|
    | 0.2 sentinel disabled | RED — "the re-arm edge is back (_checkFailure has no wire…)" |
    | 0.2 sentinel arms on finite state | **EQUIVALENT, and that is a finding**: _healNonFinite is pure repair and emits only when it healed (both S16-pinned), so over-arming is a no-op by contract — the sentinel's only observable job is the arming DIRECTION, which the first mutation kills |
    | ban check out of rig() | RED — "h1 rigged under a house ban" |
    | cap check out of cycleHardware | RED — "cycleHardware spent past the client's cap" |
    | commit cap assert disabled | RED — "commit attached a sail spent past the client's cap" |
    | fabricCharter leak flip (<1 → <0) | RED — "soaker reads leaks:false" |
    | ban filter no-op in applyNightConstraints | RED ×4 — drop count, survivor candidates, emptied-yard pins |
    | cap never reaches priceCandidate | RED — "a1,a3,a4,a5 still clean under the cap" |
    (0.2/session mutations under the node twin of the same arrays the browser runs; audit
    mutations under a probe mirroring the pinned assert expressions — and the browser harness
    demonstrated red-on-failure for this exact test block earlier today, when my own vacuity
    guard fired on the first run: the symmetric fixture prices every clean line identically, so
    the cap test now derives its cap from the fixture's own price list and cannot go vacuous.)
    **FILED:**
    · **A — the one wiring line that is yours** (the setBudget pattern, same boundary):
      `session.setConstraints(week.job?.constraints ?? [])` wherever main.js re-banks the shop
      for the night. The `?? []` is load-bearing — it is what clears the previous client's
      terms; the session deliberately keeps them through reset() so "play again" replays the
      same client. Everything else on my side is live the moment that line lands.
    · **A/D — SCORE IT's constraint door is programmatic only, on purpose**: the editor panel
      passes none (an editor yard has no client — constraints are night data, not site data).
      Constrained offers score through `scoreSite({ constraints })` — the board's receipts or
      D's gauntlet can call it today; if S18 wants a UI door on the panel, that is a small A+B
      seam, not a re-architecture.
    · **D — gate 3 support is armed and DEFERRED as briefed**: your pool yard lands in your
      second pass, after my run. When it does: scoreSite takes your entry's constraints if the
      offer carries any, the charter line will name the cloth on your card, and separation
      stays pinned-XOR-refused — my S16 refusal machinery is unchanged. Corroded steel prices
      through ratingHint, which every sweep already reads live.
    Pushed lane/b: aa0b36a (gate 0.2), 1bcfcda (gates 0.3+2), this entry. Port 8825, own tab
    throughout; the full suite green in the browser before every push.
 [E] 2026-07-21 — 🦀 **GATE 3.1 LANDED: THE CORRODED TIER — and a recovered session's two live mutations.**
    I inherited this gate mid-verification (predecessor killed by an API limit on the words "Factory
    is green on the untelled post — the trap it can't see. Browser now."). **It had not finished the
    sentence it was in the middle of, and the tree said so.**
    **WHAT I FOUND UNCOMMITTED — read the diff before trusting it, and this is why:**
    · `build_sail_post_corroded` still carried its **negative control M1 applied**: `steel =
      Mat_Steel(steel_gal)`, `rust = steel`, `rust_d = steel`, `DROOP = radians(0.0)`. Both shipped
      GLBs in the tree were therefore **the untelled post** — clean galvanised, flat eye — not the
      asset the docstring described. Committed verbatim first (`a180fce`, labelled WIP) so the
      predecessor's state survives in history, then restored.
    · `asset_report.json` held **1 of 37 assets**; `contact_sheet.png` was **196 KB / truncated**
      (against 4.77 MB on main). Both were interrupted mid-write, not design changes. A clean
      rebuild restores 37 assets and a 5.07 MB 1680×4200 sheet (one extra tile row for the two new
      props). *The 886-line "deletion" in that diff was a corrupt artifact, not a decision.*
    **Rebased a180fce onto 75d5f9a (D's seven nights) — zero conflicts, as predicted: week.js /
    a.test / d.test never meet my files.**
    **DETERMINISM (my own runs, not inherited):** five full `blender -b -P build_yard_assets.py`
    runs. **37/37 GLBs byte-identical** across two consecutive clean runs; `contact_sheet.png` and
    `asset_report.json` also byte-identical run-to-run. **Zero churn on the 35 pre-existing GLBs** —
    only `sail_post_corroded_v1.glb` moved, and `sail_post_corroded_wrecked_v1.glb` held hash
    `77ba2173…` unchanged through every mutation (I only ever touched the intact builder — the
    wreck's stability is the control that proves it). Shipped: intact `413e8da4…`, wreck `77ba2173…`.
    **MUTATION CHECKS — three, each witnessed red in the real harness at :8828, not reasoned about:**
    · **M-A clean steel** (gal everywhere, rust aliased to steel): TELLS 1/3 red *"rust covers 0.0%
      of the corroded post's surface"*, TELLS 2/3 red *"corroded shaft lightness 0.737 vs galvanised
      0.737"*, **3/3 green** (droop is independent of materials). **The factory itself stayed GREEN
      on all four dims/nodes checks** — the predecessor's claim is CONFIRMED: the untelled post is
      exactly the trap the factory cannot see, and e.test is the only thing that catches it.
    · **M-B flat eye** (`DROOP = 0`, steel restored): TELLS 3/3 red *"the exported pad eye droops
      0.0° but the root claims 38°"*, **1/3 and 2/3 green**.
    · **M-C the note lies, the mesh is honest** (baked `padeye_droop_deg = 20`, geometry left at 38):
      3/3 red *"droops 38.0° but the root claims 20°"*. The pin reads the **baked extra**, not a
      literal — so note and mesh can only ever lie together.
    **AN ASSERT THAT COULD NOT FAIL, KILLED.** The WIP pinned the sag as `honestAnchorY −
    corrodedAnchorY > 0.05`. The eye hangs off a weld line 160 mm down the post, so that quantity is
    **0.060 m at ZERO droop** — I measured it on the M-B build: anchor at `(0, 3.920, 0)`, no
    horizontal displacement whatsoever, and the old assert **passes**. It was measuring the weld
    offset and calling it a sag. Replaced with the droop **angle** derived from the exported anchor
    (`atan2(horiz, y − weld_y)`), pinned to a baked extra — plus arm length and direction. **THE AXIS
    TRAP, closed the swing_set way:** the builder now bakes `padeye_droop_deg 38`, `padeye_arm_m
    0.08`, `padeye_weld_y_threejs 3.84`, `padeye_droop_dir_threejs "+Z"` — all stated in **three.js**
    coords (Blender −y → three.js +Z), and e.test recomputes every one of them off the geometry.
    **AN ASSERT WHOSE REASON WAS BACKWARDS, FIXED.** The WIP's 20 m assert said the corroded shaft
    "reads darker at yard distance". **I measured the actual render before endorsing it and the sign
    is inverted.** Sampled off look.html's canvas at cam z=20 m, 1280×720, mid-shaft band:
        honest    rgb(49,51,49)   lum 50   sat 0.031   R−B  0
        corroded  rgb(98,94,86)   lum 94   sat 0.126   R−B +12
    The corroded shaft renders **twice as bright**, not darker. Base colour *is* darker (0.524 vs
    0.737) but it isn't what reaches the screen: galvanised is metalness 0.90 / roughness 0.35, and
    with no environment map a near-mirror metal has nothing to mirror and goes near-black; weathered
    at 0.55 / 0.60 is diffuse and catches the sun. **The separation is real and large — it is made of
    METALNESS, not lightness.** The test now pins both halves and says which one the player sees; an
    assert whose stated reason is the reverse of the mechanism is a docstring waiting to be "fixed"
    in the wrong direction. Footing stain at the same range: sat 0.062 → 0.147, warmth +6 → +18.
    **THE TELL READS AT 20 M — verified by looking, at the game's own camera height (1.7 m), in the
    game's own renderer, screenshots taken.** Honest post: a clean dark line on a white footing.
    Corroded: a mottled warm-grey shaft, rust collars at base and head, cap askew, and a **brown
    footing** — the stain is the single most legible thing about it at distance. Close read at 4.5 m
    confirms blooms, streaks, the deep-rust fold band, and the drooped eye. Wreck read at 7.5 m:
    plumb stub with a torn rim, shaft out in the yard, pad eye on the grass at the far end.
    **THE NUMBERS — I OWN THEM AS PROPOSALS, A RULES.** I **endorse 0.55 unchanged**, and my
    argument is not the predecessor's. Ladder from the manifest: 0.22 carport < 0.30 carport_post <
    0.35 house < 0.45 swing_frame < **0.55** < 0.65 pergola < 1.00 post. Above the swing frame
    because a real footing beats sound steel loose on grass; below the pergola because the bloom
    outside is pitting inside and you de-rate what you cannot inspect — both sound. **What I'd add:
    this is the only rung on the ladder whose true capacity is UNKNOWABLE by inspection.** Every
    other weakness is legible (the carport's thin bracket, the swing's missing footing, the pergola's
    flexing deck). So the exact midpoint of 0.45→0.65 is right *because* it is the rung you cannot
    reason your way to: at 0.55 neither "treat it as the swing frame" nor "treat it as the pergola"
    is obviously correct, and the player has to **gamble** rather than compute. That is what a trap
    tier is for. **Collateral $45 endorsed** — cheapest structure on the board (gnome 25 <
    **corroded_post 45** < gutter 90 < pergola 120 < swing 140 < carport 180 < glasshouse 320), and
    the reasoning holds: you are billing the make-safe (cut the fold, core-drill the stub), not a
    rebuild, because the steel was condemned before the player arrived. **A — one caution:** $45
    makes this the cheapest thing in the game you can break, so if playtest shows players *farming*
    it as a cheap sacrificial anchor, the correction is the **sail HP and garden exposure** it costs
    mid-storm, **not** the invoice line. Raising the bill would teach "don't touch rust"; the lesson
    is meant to be "rust is a bet, and here's the stake".
    **Verified:** selftest **483/0/0** on :8828, my own tab, fronted. Baseline 474 (D's seven-night
    landing) **+9 exactly**: 4 factory dims/nodes rows for the two new GLBs, plus TELLS 1/3, 2/3,
    3/3, the RUNG test and the wreck test. The count moved by precisely what was added.
    *(Note for whoever scores next: my tab was silently backgrounded by another lane's tab mid-run
    and the suite slowed to a crawl — results stayed correct, because selftest.html is fixed-dt and
    says so in its own header, but budget for it. `tabs_context` shows who holds the front.)*
    **⚠️ A — ANCHOR_TYPE WIDENED (contracts.js is yours; swing_frame/pergola precedent).** I added
    `'corroded_post'` to the frozen enum with its reasoning beside it. Revert-and-tell-me standard.
    Your own "the widened enum is CHECKED, so a bad type cannot ship" test covers it and is green.

    // SPRINT17 gate 3.1, E. The corroded tier — the pool yard's other half.
    // The pool kit is fourteen tie-offs that DON'T exist (every fence post an

    // 0.55: above the swing frame (a real footing beats loose-on-grass), below
    // the pergola (the bloom outside is pitting inside — you de-rate what you
    // can't inspect). It is the only rung whose real capacity you cannot read

 ```
    **PLACEMENT FACTS, three.js coords (measured off the exported GLBs, not off the builder):**
    · `sail_post_corroded` — bbox min `(−0.253, −0.020, −0.260)` max `(0.253, 4.032, 0.260)`;
      footprint **0.51 × 0.52 m**, height **4.03 m** (stands POST height on purpose: its lie is
      "I'm a sail post"). Single anchor `top_anchor` at **(0, 3.903, +0.049)** — 0.077 m below the
      honest post's 3.980 and displaced **+Z**, the yard side, because the eye has drooped 38°.
      `rake_pivot` present and live, same mechanism as the honest post: it rakes identically.
    · `sail_post_corroded_wrecked` — bbox min `(−0.525, −0.020, −0.260)` max `(0.253, 0.682, 3.818)`.
      **WRECK APRON: reserve ~3.9 m on +Z and ~0.6 m on −X of clear ground** — the fallen shaft
      lies out into the yard and will interpenetrate anything placed there. Max height 0.682 m.
      **No anchor survives the wreck** (asserted): an anchor that outlives its structure is the
      free-failure bug in a costume, fascia rule, fifth application.
    **🌊 D — THE TIER IS PLACEABLE, YOUR GATE 3.2 IS UNBLOCKED.** `sail_post_corroded` /
    `..._wrecked` are landed, deterministic, and manifest-resolvable **node-less** (type
    `corroded_post` → 0.55, collateral `corroded_post` → $45), so a pool-yard site JSON can place
    them with a plain entry and no `node` field and the rating still lands — you do not need to wait
    on A applying the palette hunk above to write the site. Anchor node is `top_anchor` if you do
    want it explicit. Mind the wreck apron (+Z ~3.9 m) when you lay out the pool fence: the corroded
    post falls INTO the yard, which is the whole point of putting it where a corner wants to go.
 [I] 2026-07-21 — **SPRINT 17 PART 1 INTEGRATION (main): THE BOARD IS LIVE.** Four lanes merged
    (A board+rulings, B enforcement+heal+charter, C honesty gate+exposure cross, E corroded
    tier); selftest **510/0/0** on the integrated tree, the exact per-lane sum (474 baseline
    + A 11 + C 5 + B 11 + E 9), verified in the browser. Merge order a→c→b→e; the ONLY
    conflicts were three THREADS append regions, resolved keep-both — zero code conflicts,
    one better than S16's one.
    **The seam that closed in flight:** B filed the one wiring line as A's
    (`session.setConstraints(week.job?.constraints ?? [])`); A landed it at the setBudget
    boundary (99345f4), feature-detected so lane/a stayed green pre-merge. Verified live on
    the integrated tree at merge, per A's own one-minute check: took the Vasilaros $45-cap
    callout off the board, rigged to exactly $45 (allowed — exact at the boundary, B's
    ruling), then one dollar past on BOTH the hardware-cycle and the spare paths →
    `{ok:false}` with the client's words verbatim as the reason. The guard stays (it is one
    `?.` and it documents its own interim honestly).
    **Process note, recorded because it worked:** origin/lane/a already carried a complete
    board implementation from an earlier Lane A run when this sprint's Lane A went to push
    its rival draft — the fork was resolved by adopting the posted work as canon (it was
    the contract B/C/D were already building against) and landing only what it missed. The
    lane model's push-early rule did exactly what it exists to do.
    **Next: D's second pass** — the pool yard authored cold (E's corroded tier is merged and
    placeable), entered into the board's alternative POOL, then the full seven-night cold
    play through the board (at least one alternative offer, one constrained job). Gate 4
    (John plays the seven at partly.party) closes the sprint; deploy fires after D's pass
    integrates.
 [D] 2026-07-21 — 🌊 **GATE 3.2 LANDED: THE POOL YARD — authored cold, priced by the gauntlet,
    refused honestly, and in the game only if somebody chooses it.** Selftest 515/0/0 (510 + 5
    pool-yard pins, the count moved exactly by what was added). The first yard with no NIGHTS
    slot: `pool_yard_southerly` is a POOL entry in board.js (A's granted edit) and nothing else —
    decline it all week and the campaign is complete without it, which is arc 2's promise made
    literal.
    **THE YARD (site_04_pool_yard, "The Pool Yard", the Karalis place):** E's pool ring east —
    fourteen perfect posts, every one an honest no — the bed poolside, and ONE corroded post
    (c1, 0.55, $45) standing in the venturi channel between the house's east end and the pool
    enclosure, exactly where the bed's NE corner wants steel. Honest steel is scarce and west
    (gum t1/t1b, posts p1-p3, the familiar 0.35 fascia). Authored cold in the editor — palette
    shapes, editor placement, iterative SCORE IT, canonical exportJSON; three passes (first cut
    made TWO in-band quads — anchors spread past the 18-45 m² band; the band is a level-design
    law I now have a feel for).
    **THE NUMBERS (SCORE IT card = audit.html over the shipped file, zero delta between the two
    harnesses):** WINNABLE at $80 — 13 quads in band, 6 clean, 1 marginal. Cheapest hold $40
    (h1,t1b,p2,p3 → 92.7 FULL, 58% cover, no rust in it). **Every 92%-cover line routes through
    c1 — full shade in this yard has rust in it or it does not exist.** And the tier does what E
    built it for: the SAME eye flies 1.9 kN (clean, $30 rated) on t1,p1,p2,c1 and 3.6-4.1 kN
    (UNHOLDABLE at any price) on t1,t1b,p2,c1 / t1b,p1,p2,c1 — swap one gum anchor and the
    gamble flips, and nothing on the object tells you which. **HOW CORROSION PRICES: +$25 of
    hardware you must rate up (a $5 carabiner corner becomes a $30 rated corner), a $45
    collateral stake, and a shape-sensitivity you cannot read off the post.** Fence compliance
    prices as ABSENCE: the ring contributes zero anchors and zero exposure — the offer card's
    $160 (gutter 90 + rust 45 + gnome 25) deliberately does not name the fence, because "not
    scored" must never read as "free" and nothing can bend a pool fence yet (bike rule).
    **SEPARATION: REFUSED, third in the family, receipts in the site file** — bare 83.7 FULL
    vs best flown 92.7 (+9.0): bareMustLoseBelow cannot be written; the southerly cannot kill
    an open bed. First refusal authored AFTER A's 0.4 ruling made the pattern canon, and this
    yard IS that canon on purpose: the sail here is for the steel and the collateral. Flagged
    for B: when the garden-BONUS separation shape lands, this yard's +9.0-at-$40 is a
    bonus-stake candidate — re-measure then.
    **⚠️ FILED — THE SECOND-RUST-POST LANDMINE (E/A, before any yard ships two):** two
    corroded posts in one yard SHARE the baked `collateral: 'corroded_post'` key.
    structFor/wreckStructure match the FIRST entry with the key and C's failure envelope
    dedupes keys — so the second post's failure would bill once and wreck the wrong post
    (free-failure bug in a rust costume). The pool yard ships ONE post on purpose and pins it
    (d.test). A second rung in one yard needs per-instance key plumbing first.
    **PINS (+5, d.test):** chosen-never-scripted (no NIGHTS slot, POOL entry with receipt,
    southerly = the taught storm) · ring adopts nothing + unpriced-by-ruling, rust adopts once
    at type corroded_post/$45/wreck wired, exactly ONE rust post · separation-judged XOR with
    the receipts' own numbers · wreck apron threads the needle (bed east 2.5 ≤ shaft west
    2.84; shaft east 3.36 ≤ ring west 3.7 — E's +Z 3.9 m apron lands in the path, in the
    yard) · exposureOf = $160 with exactly three items and the fence in none of them.
    Cross-lane, flagged (revert-and-tell-me): gardenfly.selftest's judged walk grew
    site_04_pool_yard and its count moved 3→4 in the same commit that ships the yard — a yard
    missing from that walk is unjudged SILENTLY, which is the silence the gate forbids.
    **MUTATIONS — 1 full-suite, 10 probed, every one red with its own words:** the finding
    stripped from the site file ran the REAL suite to **513/2** — B's extended walk red
    ("site_04_pool_yard has neither a separation block nor a _separation_finding — the yard
    is UNJUDGED") AND my XOR pin red ("silence is not an option") — the double tooth proving
    the walk extension covers the new yard. Probed against mirrored assert expressions
    (B's S17 precedent, disclosed): entry deleted / re-paired to the wildnight / receipt
    stripped / scripted slot added; gnome unpriced ($135) / rust zeroed ($115) / fence
    priced ($460 — the bike-rule breach reads as red, not as revenue); c1 nudged into the
    ring apron (3.86 > 3.70) / bed widened under the shaft / c1 falling over the south
    fence. Controls green on the shipped data.
 [D] 2026-07-21 — 🎮 **GATE 3.2/4-ADJACENT: THE COLD PLAY — seven nights THROUGH THE BOARD, two
    alternatives taken, one constrained, the marquee, the designed loss and the fabric bet all
    played by hand. Final tree selftest 515/0/0. The week ends THE WEEK HELD · 7/7 nights ·
    6/7 gardens · $401 · ★ 0.0 · 5 warranty jobs — and that end card holding "every savable
    garden made it" against "you broke things all week" in one breath is the game's honesty
    working at week scale.** Real path throughout: splash → board → take → sheet → rig by
    clicking → Enter → storm at SHADES.step(1/60) (the repo's own fast-forward) → invoice.
    Harness disclosure, said loudly: the prep camera is STATIC per night, so on three nights
    one or two anchors sat outside the fronted pane's view and RMB-orbit is a pointer-capture
    drag the pane tool cannot do — those picks (p1/p3 night 5, p1 night 6, q1/q4 night 7) went
    through rigging.session.rig()/setHardware(), the exact calls the click handler makes.
    Every other pick, every cycle, every refusal test, F, S and Enter were real UI events.
    **THE NIGHTS, verdicts per night:**
    · **N1 — TOOK THE ALTERNATIVE: my pool yard, cold off the board.** The card sold it like a
      tradie reads a site: $57 vs the Hendersons' $42, $160 exposure vs $115, same storm band.
      Flew the gamble line t1,p1,p2,c1 at $65+spare. The rust corner CARRIED it — c1 peaked
      2.23 of its derated 3.58 — and the quiet truth is the night's real near-miss was the
      honest $5 carabiner at p2 (peak 1.12/1.2). Every corner held, garden 93 (audit said 92.0
      flown — played number 1.3 over, same ballpark), +$79, ★3.0→3.5. **Verdict: the trap
      tier plays as designed — I KNEW the rating and still sweated the eye through the change;
      a cold player reading rust + fence + funnel gets an honest fright with a fair tell.**
    · **N2 — spine, southerly × backyard.** Shackles on the post quad, held 4/4, 89, +$81.
      The board's alternative that morning (the Delaneys' house-ban at +25%) declined —
      declining cost nothing, which S18 still owes an answer for.
    · **N3 — spine, earlybuster × corner block.** Flew the audit's OWN cheapest hold
      (tr1,tr1b,q1,q3 $40, tiers as printed) — and tr1b's $5 carabiner LET GO at 1.17 of 1.2,
      inside the bench-vs-game under-read MANUAL carries as policy. Garden 88, +$88, but
      ★4.0→3.5. ⚠️ **Filed for B/A: the card called this line CLEAN. The 15% margin rule is
      applied to the flags, but the clean/marginal boundary at the $5 tier still sells a line
      the real game breaks — third data point (S13's session bypass, S16's soaker header,
      now this). Maybe cleanHw should carry the margin policy the flags already know.**
    · **N4 — TOOK THE CONSTRAINED JOB: the Vasilaros $45 cap, same yard and storm as N3.**
      The invoice-back-to-back repeat COULD have felt like a bug and instead felt like
      Tuesday work: same carport, same buster, the client now watching the bill. B's
      enforcement, tested at both doors in play: cycling q3 up ($50) REFUSED, spare ($55)
      REFUSED, the client's "Anything over forty-five and I'll be querying the invoice"
      verbatim in the ticker both times. And here is the design PAYING: N3 taught me where
      the loads live, so under the cap I did not buy up — I MOVED the tiers (shackles to q1
      and tr1b, carabiners to tr1/q3, $40) and the same quad that broke last night held 4/4.
      Garden 87, PAID UNDER THESE TERMS on the invoice, +20% fee, N3's carabiner as a
      warranty line, +$104 — the week's best night, under the tightest terms.
      **Verdict: the cap does not read as a rule; it reads as a client who was burned once,
      because refusing hardware in THEIR words while paying +20% is exactly what that client
      would do. And "the cap stops you buying your way out of choosing" is TRUE in the hands,
      not just in the doc: knowledge became the only spendable currency.**
    · **N5 — spine, THE WILDNIGHT (my gate-0.1 restoration, first full play at seven).** Rigged
      the yard's own pinned separation recipe verbatim (p5 rated, p1/p2/p3 shackle, $75, no
      room for a spare). The marquee delivered the canon: p2 blown at the change (3.48/3.2),
      p3 followed (3.9), garden 56 — OVER the win line on two corners — gnome billed on the
      two-corner rule, +$24, ★4.0→2.0. "THE GARDEN MADE IT. The sail didn't. That is what the
      sail was for" over a $24 morning is the best sentence in the game.
      ⚠️ **Filed for B (numbers, not a fix): the PINNED RECIPE loses corners in the played
      game.** gardenfly's pin holds 0/4 lost; my hand play of the same line, same storm, same
      tension lost p2 then p3, peaks 3.48/3.90 vs shackle 3.2. Two harnesses, one number —
      find the variable before tuning (my candidate: hail impact load reaches the rig only in
      the game chain; debris was 0). Garden-side the pin's INTENT held (56 > 50, bare loses).
    · **N6 — spine, the icenight, the designed loss.** Garden 0 "beyond saving from the
      start", fee docked to 35%, N5's two warranty shackles billed no-charge-to-client,
      −$83, ★→0.0 — and the invoice SPLITS the blame: "The shackle at P2 letting go is the
      part that's on you." The designed loss reads as designed, not as unfair, because the
      paper says which part was the ice and which part was me.
    · **N7 — spine, the soaker, the F key.** $75 ring rated-on-q1, membrane. q2 — the pond
      corner, the broom's job — let go LATE at 3.32/3.2, exactly the corner and failure mode
      C measured for a broom-less run (this play is that acceptance, on the record). Garden
      96 FULL, "held 391 kg of what it stopped. That is the membrane's price", +$28.
    **THE TWO QUESTIONS, answered as the playtester:**
    · **Does choosing feel like running a business? YES — at the morning table, and it is the
      strongest new feeling in the game.** Fee vs exposure vs storm band vs whose terms — I
      caught myself doing tradie arithmetic ("$57 with a $160 yard against $42 with a $115
      one, same weather") before the sheet ever opened. The safe job priced DOWN (the $44
      retainer against $59 under the carport) made saying yes to risk feel like MY margin
      call, not the script's. What does NOT yet feel like a business: saying no. Declining
      costs nothing, so the board is a free option — and twice it offered a dodge that
      undercuts the campaign's own set-pieces: **the wildnight was declinable for a Tuesday
      southerly at similar money, and the icenight (the designed loss!) sat next to a
      winnable constrained job at the SAME $68.** A fee-maximizer skips the week's two
      hardest lessons and never knows. That is S18's declared question ("does saying no cost
      you") and gate 4 should aim John straight at it — my vote from the chair: a declined
      BOOKED night should cost standing (you were booked; the callout was the option), while
      a declined callout stays free.
    · **Does a constraint read as a client or a rule? A CLIENT, cleanly.** The words do the
      work: the refusal is THEIR sentence at the moment of the pick, the premium is on the
      offer where the choosing happens, and both papers repeat the terms. The one seam:
      N7's board offered the same client twice (soaker × site_02 booked, southerly ×
      site_02 callout) under "the other goes to somebody else" — two Vasilaros jobs where
      "somebody else" is... the Vasilaros place. Cosmetic, filed for A with a smile:
      eligibleAlternatives might also skip same-CLIENT-same-YARD pairs, or the line could
      soften on a same-client morning.
    **Small findings, filed:** pip glyphs are a quiet triumph (●●●●●○◆ tells the whole week
    at a glance — held, held, held, held, held, LOST, tonight); the N3→N4 warranty chain
    across a chosen night billed correctly both directions (S16's promise surviving arc 2 is
    worth saying out loud); fees carry standing multipliers down to ×0.88 at ★0.0, so the
    rep bleed is FELT in the wallet, which is REP doing its job unmeasured or not.

 # THE CORRODED TIER (SPRINT17 gate 3.1 — the pool yard's other half)
 # ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 # The pool kit is fourteen tie-offs that DON'T exist (every fence post an
 # honest no). This is the tie-off that DOES exist and shouldn't be trusted:
 # a real sail post, real concrete footing, real pad eye — gone rusty.
 #
 # WHY 0.55, argued on the ladder it joins (0.22 carport < 0.30 carport_post <
 # 0.35 fascia < 0.45 swing_frame < [0.55] < 0.65 pergola < 1.00 post):
 #   · ABOVE the swing frame (0.45): the footing is still 300 mm of concrete
 #     and the load path still reaches the ground. A sound welded frame
 #     standing loose on grass drags; a rusty post in a real footing holds
 #     until its steel gives — corroded anchored beats sound unanchored.
 #   · BELOW the pergola (0.65): the pergola's members are SOUND and its
 #     weakness (deck flex) is visible and bounded. Corrosion's weakness is
 #     section loss you cannot see the bottom of — the bloom on the outside is
 #     pitting on the inside, so the visible rust is a FLOOR on the damage,
 #     not a ceiling. You de-rate below sound timber because you're rating
 #     what you can't inspect.
 #   · And it FILLS the 0.45→0.65 gap: rungs create decisions (D's S15
 #     endorsement logic, the reason the pergola exists). With this rung the
 #     ladder steps 0.45 / 0.55 / 0.65 — three different kinds of "not quite":
 #     unanchored steel, eaten steel, flexing timber.
 CORRODED_POST_RATING = 0.55
 # The bill when it snaps. Proposal — Lane A confirms (my S17 prompt says rule
 # it and let A confirm): a post IS the client's property, so a snapped one
 # bills — "it was already scrap" is a warranty argument, not a free pass. But
 # the steel was condemned before you touched it, so what you're billing is
 # the MAKE-SAFE, not the post: cutting the fold, core-drilling the stub out
 # of the footing. That's under the gutter's $90 (a full trade's morning run)
 # and above the gnome's $25. Cheap ON PURPOSE: the real price of trusting
 # corroded steel is the corner you lose mid-storm — the trap costs you in
 # sail HP and garden exposure, and the invoice line is honest small change
 # beside it. If the bill were big, the lesson would read "don't touch rust";
 # at $45 it reads "rust is a bet, and here's the stake".

    """The corroded sail-post variant — same bones as build_sail_post (H, R,
    footing, rake_pivot mechanism all identical, so it rakes and places like
    any post), different truth.
    THE TELL, designed to read at two ranges (the bike lesson: LOOK at it,
    and look from where the player actually stands):
      · 20 m / colour: the whole shaft is weathered matte (steel_weathered)
        against the honest post's bright galvanised, the footing collar wears
        a rust stain skirt, and the cap sits askew. You don't see rust from
        the back fence — you see a DIRTY post next to clean ones.
      · 3 m / detail: rust blooms where posts actually rust (the base band
        where water pools on the collar, the head collar around the pad-eye
        weld), deep-rust fold line just above the footing, streaks bleeding
        down the shaft, and the pad eye SAGS — the weld ate through and the
        eye drooped toward the yard. The anchor empty sits at the DROOPED
        eye, so the sag is a measured fact, not set dressing: e.test derives
        the droop ANGLE back out of the exported anchor position and pins it
        to `padeye_droop_deg` below. (Pinning "the corroded anchor is lower
        than the honest one" would NOT have worked — the eye hangs off a weld
        line 160 mm down the post, so that test reads 0.06 m and passes at
        zero droop. Measure the angle, not the altitude.)
    Corrosion a player can't see is a trap with no tell, and this repo
    doesn't ship those — the three tells are pinned as three SEPARATE tests
    in e.test.js (rust area, shaft lightness, eye droop) so that one failure
    can't mask the other two. Rebuild this in clean steel at the same 0.55
    hint and all three go red; flatten only the eye and only the third does.

 /**
 * SHADES / HARD YARDS — THE JOB BOARD. Lane A owns this file.
 *
 * SPRINT17 gate 1, opening ROADMAP arc 2: *"mornings offer N callouts, you take
 * one. Pay, risk, client and site visible before you commit — income becomes a
 * choice."* Until now the week was a script: you were handed tonight and you
 * rigged it. From here the week is a script you can step off.
 *
 * Zero imports beyond contracts + week, and no THREE — same charter as week.js,
 * and for the same reason: an offer is pure data, so the board is testable at
 * fixed cost in node with no browser and no WebGL context. The only thing that
 * touches the screen is hud.js reading these objects.
 *
 * ── THE THREE RULES THIS FILE EXISTS TO KEEP ──────────────────────────────
 *
 * 1. **THE SCRIPTED SPINE SURVIVES.** Every morning offers tonight's authored
 *    night. It is both the campaign and the test fixture, and 474 asserts stand
 *    on it — so the board ADDS a second door, it never replaces the first. Take
 *    nothing and the week runs exactly as it ran before this file existed.
 *
 * 2. **DETERMINISTIC, FROM THE WEEK AND THE INDEX.** No Date.now, no
 *    Math.random — the repo's oldest rule (contracts.js §Determinism), and the
 *    selftest depends on it: an offer pool that draws from the clock is a suite
 *    that goes red on a Tuesday. Same week seed, same night, same two offers,
 *    forever. Seeded through `rng()` from contracts.js rather than a hash I'd
 *    have to justify — the house PRNG is already the thing every other seeded
 *    system in this repo reproduces against.
 *
 * 3. **THE CHOSEN JOB *IS* THE NIGHT — by construction, not by discipline.**
 *    An offer carries a WHOLE NIGHT ENTRY (`offer.night`), the same shape
 *    NIGHTS holds, and `week.take()` installs it at tonight's index. So the job
 *    sheet, the quote, the invoice, the ledger, warranty, rep and the end card
 *    all read a chosen alternative through the SAME `nightAt()`-shaped path
 *    they read a scripted night through — not one of them can tell the
 *    difference, and none of them needed a line changed. A board that bolted a
 *    parallel "callout" concept alongside the night would have had to teach
 *    seven surfaces about it, and one of them would have been missed. (a.test
 *    pins this from the paperwork end: a chosen alternative that skipped the
 *    ledger is the board lying.)
 */
 import { rng } from './contracts.js';
 /**
 * What a client is allowed to demand. CHECKED, not documented — this repo's
 * standing rule is that an unenforced enum is decoration (the carport shipped
 * typed as a 'post' for a whole sprint behind a JSDoc comment that said it
 * couldn't). `validateConstraint` below fails loud, and a.test flies a bogus
 * kind through it to prove the check can fail.
 *
 * SPRINT17 gate 2 ships two. Both are DATA here and ENFORCEMENT in Lane B's
 * rigging session — the seam agreed in THREADS:
 *
 *  · `noAnchorFamily` — "nothing attached to the house". `family` names an
 *    ANCHOR_TYPE the session must refuse, with `says` in the ticker.
 *  · `budgetCap` — "cheapest option and I'll sue". `cap` is a hard ceiling on
 *    the RIG, below START_BUDGET. The client caps your spend, not your wallet:
 *    your bank is untouched, and what you don't spend you keep.
 */
 export const CONSTRAINT_KIND = Object.freeze(['noAnchorFamily', 'budgetCap']);
 /**
 * A constrained night pays a PREMIUM. ⚖️ RULED (A, SPRINT17 gate 2) —
 * the number, and why it is this number:
 *
 * The premium is a FRACTION OF THE CALLOUT FEE, declared on the constraint
 * itself rather than fixed in code, so a new constraint prices itself as data
 * (the `pay` override pattern this file's neighbour already uses). It scales
 * with the fee, which means a nasty night's constraint is worth more than a
 * gentle one's — correct, because the same ban costs you more when the weather
 * is actually trying.
 *
 *  · **noAnchorFamily: +25%.** It removes a whole family of options — on
 *    backyard_01 the house side is three of thirteen anchors AND the cheap
 *    cover over the bed. You are being paid to solve a smaller puzzle with the
 *    same storm in it.
 *  · **budgetCap: +20%, deliberately the lower of the two.** A cap denies you
 *    money you were going to SPEND, and what you don't spend stays in the bank
 *    — so part of your compensation is already in your pocket and paying a
 *    full house-ban premium on top would be paying you twice for one squeeze.
 *
 * ⚠️ **UNMEASURED — same status, and the same standing instruction, as
 * `noCollateralBonus` and `REP` in week.js.** Nobody has played a constrained
 * night yet; these are sized by argument, not by a playtest. They are per-
 * constraint data, cutting them costs nothing but a number on a card, and if
 * gate 4's play says constrained jobs are free money, THESE are the levers —
 * cut before anything in PAY, which carries measured evidence and long reasons.
 * I did not fund a new feature by quietly trimming a constant somebody measured.

   A new card in the paper chain, and it has to meet the invoice's standard —
   so it is built out of the kit rather than beside it: same letterhead, same
   .row/.cond rhythm in the offer body, same terms line at the foot.
   The one NEW idea it needs is that an offer is a THING YOU PICK, so each one
   is a button (the .storm affordance the old storm-select card used, widened
   into a panel). Two offers, stacked, tonight's scripted job first — see
   board.js offersFor() for why that order is fixed and not seeded.
   The constrained offer gets a visible mark, because gate 2's whole point is
   that taking a constrained job is a CHOICE: an amber left border and the
   client's own words in italic. A player must not be able to take one without
   having been told, and "it was in the fee" is not being told. */

     * SPRINT17 gate 1 — THE JOB BOARD. The morning, before the job sheet.
     *
     * ROADMAP arc 2's opening move: *"mornings offer N callouts, you take one.
     * Pay, risk, client and site visible before you commit."* Two offers,
     * tonight's scripted night first, and taking either one makes it the night.
     *
     * **What an offer card shows, and why it is exactly this list** — SPRINT17
     * gate 1.2 asks for "what a tradie would demand before saying yes", which
     * is not a feature list, it's a job interview:
     *   · WHO and WHERE — the client and the address, off the same night data
     *     the letterhead bills. A job you can't name is a job you don't take.
     *   · WHAT THE WEATHER IS DOING — C's honest forecast band at lead 0, the
     *     same call the job sheet makes, so the board cannot be more confident
     *     than the sheet it leads to.
     *   · THE FEE — what you're paid, premium included, priced through the
     *     SAME calloutFee() the sheet quotes and the invoice pays.
     *   · THE RISK — collateral exposure: what of theirs your failure can
     *     bill you for. This is the number that makes the choice a choice; a
     *     board that showed only the fee would be advertising, not quoting.
     *   · THE CLIENT'S CONSTRAINTS, in the client's own words, marked — so
     *     taking a constrained job is a decision and never a surprise.
     *
     * The pricing is injected (main.js owns the storm defs and site JSON);
     * anything absent simply doesn't render, which is the same degradation rule
     * the job sheet's forecast lines follow. The card works with nothing but
     * client/site/brief, and that is what lets it be tested without a server.

 * SPRINT17 gate 2 [B] — CLIENT CONSTRAINTS: A's data, this file's teeth.
 *
 * The shapes are A's seam contract (THREADS 2026-07-21, posted before either
 * side was load-bearing), verbatim:
 *
 *   { kind:'noAnchorFamily', family:'house', label:'…', says:'…' }
 *   { kind:'budgetCap',      cap:45,        label:'…', says:'…' }
 *
 * `label` is what the papers print (A's half); `says` is the client's own
 * voice, and it is what this session's refusals return — the ticker on a
 * refused pick is the CLIENT talking, not the software. `family` is an
 * ANCHOR_TYPE to refuse; `cap` is a hard ceiling on the night's SPEND (the
 * client caps the invoice, not your wallet), enforced where the spending
 * happens and asserted again at commit.
 *
 * The enum is CHECKED on both ends of the seam on purpose: A's
 * validateConstraint guards the data source (board.js), this guards the
 * enforcement door — a constraint that arrives here malformed is a caller bug
 * (setHardware's class, so it THROWS and names the problem), never a player
 * mistake to ticker at.

 * The board's rule, stated in A's seam contract and enforced here: *a storm the

 * with my lines — if those lines can't tell the truth about a def, the def has
 * no business on the board, however winnable the pairing is. c.test walks

 * recomputed FROM THE DEF — nothing here trusts the caller's provenance, so a
 * hand-edited def fails on its own merits (the checkEnvelope rule).
 *
 * What has TEETH here, disclosed plainly (README: an assert that cannot fail
 * is decoration):
 *   · validateStorm — structural lies (a windchange the dirCurve never
 *     delivers, overlapping gusts, a flatlining tail) really do fail.
 *   · the stone vocabulary ceiling — a def with stones past STONE_WORD_CEILING
 *     really does fail (the icenight at hail.size 2.6 is the negative control).
 *   · finiteness of the measured stats — a curve that produces NaN fails.
 * What is STRUCTURAL and rides along as regression armour, not as a live gate:
 * band-contains-truth and lead-0 exactness are guaranteed by forecastFor's
 * band() today (lo=min(v,·), hi=max(v,·), width→0 at lead 0) — those loops can
 * only fail on the day someone re-plumbs band(), which is precisely the day
 * they should. Disclosed here and in THREADS rather than dressed up as

type-two	d8466355e8	Lane D S17: [D] THREADS — the seven-night cold play through the board, verdicts per night Two alternatives taken (the pool yard N1, the $45 cap N4), the marquee, the designed loss and the fabric bet on the spine. THE WEEK HELD 7/7 · 6/7 · $401 · star 0.0 · 5 warranty jobs. Filed: the pinned wildnight recipe loses corners in the played game (gardenfly says 0/4 — find the variable); the clean/marginal boundary at the $5 tier sells lines the real game breaks; the designed-loss night is dodgeable at zero premium (S18's saying-no question, now with a case); same-client double offer reads odd on N7.

type-two	39701884e3	Lane D S17 gate 3.2: THE POOL YARD — authored cold, in the game only by being chosen site_04_pool_yard: E's ring (fourteen honest noes) east, the bed poolside, ONE corroded post in the venturi channel where the NE corner wants steel. Authored in the editor (palette shapes, iterative SCORE IT x3, canonical export). Gauntlet: WINNABLE at $80 — 13 quads, 6 clean, 1 marginal; cheapest hold $40 (h1,t1b,p2,p3, 92.7 FULL, no rust); every 92%-cover line routes through c1 — clean $65 rated on t1,p1,p2,c1, UNHOLDABLE on the two shapes that pull the eye harder. audit.html over the shipped file reproduces the card to the digit. Separation REFUSED with receipts (bare 83.7 FULL — mild-night canon, A's 0.4). board.js (A's granted edit): pool_yard_southerly POOL entry with the audit receipt. d.test: +5 pins (chosen-never-scripted, ring/rust facts, judged-XOR, wreck apron, exposure $160). gardenfly.selftest (B's file, flagged): judged walk 3 -> 4 in the same commit that ships the yard. Selftest 515/0/0 (510 + 5, the count moved by exactly what was added). Mutations: 1 full-suite (finding stripped -> DOUBLE red: B's walk 'UNJUDGED' + my XOR pin, 513/2), 10 probed (entry deleted/re-paired/receipt stripped/ scripted-slot, gnome unpriced/rust zeroed/fence priced, apron x3) — every one red with its own words, controls green.

type-two	1bcfcdad67	Lane B S17 gates 0.3 + 2: the card names its cloth, the session speaks for the client GATE 0.3 — THE CHARTER, SAID OUT LOUD (D's soaker finding, A consulted on wording and their every-card rule adopted). The audit always flew shade cloth and never said so; on the soaker that silence read 'WINNABLE over an all-DEAD garden — the night is broken'. Now: AUDIT.POROSITY is the one charter knob (sweep.js + gardenfly.js both read it), scorecard.fabricCharter() names the fabric and whether tonight's stones pass its weave (same hailBlockFor the sim charges), and the SCORE IT header prints 'fabric · shade cloth (sweep charter)' on EVERY card — plus, on leaky-storm nights, A's wording: the fabric is the bet, and the audit does not place it. GATE 2 — CLIENT CONSTRAINTS: A's shapes (seam contract, built against as posted), this lane's teeth. · rigging.js: validateNightConstraint (checked enum, both ends of the seam), setConstraints (survives reset like _startBudget; [] is the only clear). The house ban refuses the pick with the CLIENT'S WORDS as the ticker reason; the cap refuses at SPEND time on every path (rig / cycle / set / spares / fabric), exact at the boundary, refunds always free — and commit is belt-and-braces: a caller who walked around the doors gets a THROW. The cap covers the whole invoice, spares included — the client queries the invoice, not the hardware line. · sweep.js: applyNightConstraints, ONE function both drivers share — bans shrink the candidate list (a card that recommends a forbidden line is the card lying), the cap re-prices affordable/clean without touching a load. · scoreSite carries constraints/budget/constrainedOut; the card prints the client's terms next to funnel and fabric, and tells 'no geometry' from 'client forbids all of it'. · spent getter now measures against _startBudget (the re-banked session was measuring spend against the default bank). Selftest 485/0/0 in the browser (474 + exactly the 11 added: 1 sail, 4 session, 2 charter, 4 audit-constraints). Wiring line for A filed in THREADS: session.setConstraints(week.job?.constraints ?? []) at the night boundary.	2026-07-21 02:45:49 +10:00
type-two	aa0b36a54c	Lane B S17 gate 0.2: THE SECOND WIRE — a fully-lost sail re-arms the heal D's S16 poison poke, filed for this lane: _checkFailure's corner loop is the heal's only trigger and it skips broken corners, so once all four were divergence-broken a SECOND poison had no unbroken corner left to read NaN through — the corpse stayed NaN forever and rendered as nothing. A lost sail is still cloth in the yard; it must LOOK lost, not vanish. The sentinel runs ONLY on a fully-broken rig (the corner wire covers every other case): sum pos+prev — any NaN/±Inf makes the sum non-finite (Inf−Inf is NaN), finite cloth cannot overflow it. Branch-free O(n) adds, no mutation, so a finite lost sail is untouched byte-for-byte. Test replays D's gait: cascade 4/4 → 5 s finite with ZERO heals (the negative control — the sentinel must never mistake 'lost' for 'sick') → second poison heals in one substep, finite a full second on. Node suite 47/47.	2026-07-21 02:45:28 +10:00
type-two	f029274940	Lane C S17 gate 1 + 1.2: the honesty gate on the board, and the exposure cross - forecastHonest(def): "a storm the forecast can't describe honestly doesn't get offered" as a predicate, not a sentence — validator + measurable stats + the stone vocabulary ceiling (STONE_WORD_CEILING 2.0: past it, "golf ball" undersells the ice and the word ambushes where the band can't). The band- containment recomputes are disclosed as structural regression armour, not counted as coverage. - c.test walks NIGHTS ∪ POOL from the shipped data (the union, per A's stormsToPreload finding — a pool-only storm is covered the day it exists). Negative controls: a lying windchange, a cricket-ball stone, both refused by name. Lead-0 card pins: the offer card's gust/sustained figures parsed back out and matched against stormStats; a lead-0 offer must not hedge. - The exposure cross (the S14 pin pattern, third outing): my failure-route envelope (built world, anchor collateral keys through world.collateralFor, the gnome per scoreRun) vs A's exposureOf — item-level equality on ALL THREE yards: backyard 115, corner block 205, swing lawn 255. Zero unpriced keys. Teeth proven in-suite: strip the carport key and the cross reds. Selftest 490/0/0 (A's 485 + 5), browser-verified; board verified live on :8826 — both cards print the honest lead-0 lines and the crossed dollars.

type-two	dd69a2cf6c	Lane A S17 gates 0+1+2: THE JOB BOARD — two offers a morning, the chosen job IS the night Gate 0 rulings (written, with reasoning, in THREADS): - 0.4 hail-light balance: CANON. B's finding reproduces exactly ($4/$2 garden spread), but the mild-night rig market buys the STEEL and the collateral, not the bed — a cheap rig that fails on site_02 swings $184 and two stars against the same rig holding, and the cheapest HOLDING line is $40, not the $20 floor. Ruled for B's option (b): the separation block asks the wrong question on those nights; the new shape is B's and is NOT this sprint. Rain drain-weight lever declined at its proper price (full gauntlet re-measure, own gate). - 0.4b gradeFor scraped/solvent >=3 STANDS on the seven-night shape, ruled on the arithmetic (savable 6 → solvent is 4-6 dead, which is what the copy says). - 0.3 score-header wording consulted for B (no code from me). Gate 1 — the board: board.js (pure data, node-testable), week.offers()/take(), seeded from week+night via contracts' mulberry32 — no Date.now, no Math.random. An offer carries a whole NIGHT ENTRY and take() installs it, so sheet, quote, invoice, ledger, warranty, rep and end card all read a chosen job through the path they already had — seven surfaces, zero changed lines. Scripted spine runs byte-identically when nothing is taken. Gate 2 (data half) — constraints as night data, checked enum, premium ruled (+25% anchor ban / +20% budget cap, both UNMEASURED and flagged cut-first), stated on the offer, the job sheet and the invoice it was paid under. ONE calloutFee() now serves quote() and settle(). Enforcement is B's. Two bugs found off the suite: take() stored raw pool entries (crashed quote() on a missing pay block) → normaliseNight() split so both doors share it; and NIGHT 1 HAD NO BOARD — the splash bypassed it — found by looking, not testing. Pool pairings audited in the browser before shipping; both constraints checked for soft-lock against real holding lines. Mutation-checked ×6. One did NOT go red: "every pool storm is preloaded" passed with the POOL source deleted, because every pool storm is also in NIGHTS — the same coincidence that hid the calm-day bug. stormsToPreload(nights, pool) split so it can fail. Selftest 485/0/0 (474 + 11).	2026-07-21 02:11:16 +10:00
type-two	6e0608a6fb	Lane E S17 gate 3.1: THE CORRODED TIER — mutations restored, tell verified at 20 m, droop pinned to geometry Recovers an interrupted session and finishes its verification honestly. RESTORED (the predecessor was killed mid-mutation-check): - build_sail_post_corroded still had negative control M1 APPLIED — clean galvanised steel, DROOP=0 — so both shipped GLBs were the untelled post. Restored: steel_weathered/rust/rust_deep, DROOP_DEG = 38. - asset_report.json held 1 of 37 assets and contact_sheet.png was a 196 KB truncated write. Both were interrupted artifacts, not decisions; a clean rebuild restores 37 assets and a 5.07 MB 1680x4200 sheet. DETERMINISM: 37/37 GLBs byte-identical across two consecutive full runs; report and contact sheet byte-identical too. Zero churn on the 35 pre-existing GLBs. ASSERT THAT COULD NOT FAIL, KILLED: the sag pin (honestY - corrodedY > 0.05) reads 0.060 at ZERO droop, because the eye hangs off a weld line 160 mm down the post — measured on the M-B build, anchor at (0, 3.920, 0). It measured the weld offset and called it a sag. Replaced with the droop ANGLE derived from the exported anchor and pinned to baked extras (padeye_droop_deg / arm_m / weld_y_threejs / dir_threejs), all stated in three.js coords — the axis trap closed the swing_set way, so note and mesh can only lie together. ASSERT WHOSE REASON WAS BACKWARDS, FIXED: the 20 m pin claimed the corroded shaft read darker. Measured off look.html's canvas at 20 m: honest lum 50, corroded lum 94 — it renders twice as BRIGHT. Base colour is darker but metalness drives the pixels (gal 0.90/0.35 goes near-black with no env map; weathered 0.55/0.60 is diffuse). Test now pins both halves and names the mechanism the player actually sees. Three tells split into three tests so one failure cannot mask the others — pre-split, the M-A mutation went red on rust area and never reached the lightness or droop asserts at all. Mutation-checked in the browser, all three witnessed red: M-A clean steel (1/3 + 2/3 red, 3/3 green, factory GREEN throughout — the trap it cannot see, confirmed); M-B flat eye (3/3 red, others green); M-C baked note lies while mesh is honest (3/3 red, proving the pin reads the extra, not a literal). Selftest 483/0/0 (474 baseline + 9 exactly). Tell verified by looking at 20 m at the game's own camera height, screenshots taken. editor.js untouched — palette hunk filed verbatim in THREADS for A. contracts.js ANCHOR_TYPE widening flagged for A. Lane D flagged: the tier is placeable, gate 3.2 unblocked. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-21 01:51:57 +10:00

NOTE: build_sail_post_corroded still carries the M1 mutation (clean galvanised steel, DROOP=0), so the two GLBs in this commit are the UNTELLED post, not the shipped asset.
