The URL is public, so this is the first thing a stranger meets.
ENTER, PINNED. The exploit shipped because the rule lived in a keydown closure
inside boot(), behind a canvas and a WebGL context — nowhere a test could
reach. That's WHY it went out: not carelessness, no seam. `enterCommits(phase,
cardOpen)` is a value now, asserted exhaustively over PHASES so a sixth phase
is covered the day it appears, and the safe default (may not advance) is the
one it gets. Mutation-checked: reverting the guard reddens forecast, storm and
aftermath.
SPLASH. A cold visitor used to land on a job sheet — an invoice-shaped card
from a business they'd never heard of, quoting money for a job nobody had
explained, controls revealed later on prep's help line. It's a good SECOND
card. One more .card, not a menu system: there is nothing to configure. Built
on E's letterhead because the masthead IS the game's name. boot({splash:false})
for benches and D's harness.
P PAUSE — and the test is the story. The pause lives in frame(), frame() is
only called by rAF, and rAF DOES NOT FIRE IN A HIDDEN TAB. My first probe drove
the real loop and reported success: simT advanced 0 while paused... and 0 while
running. It was measuring a frozen tab, and it would have passed no matter what
I wrote. So the rule is a value: accumulate(acc, raw, paused). Paused DRAINS
the accumulator rather than carrying it — a kept `acc` spends time that elapsed
while you were paused on the first frame after resume, which is a free sixtieth
of a second of storm and exactly how two runs of a deterministic sim come to
disagree. Storm-only, and cleared at every phase change: a pause flag left set
where P is inert would be a soft-lock built out of a comfort feature.
M MUTE — wired, honest, and not advertised yet. C's bus has no tap: createAudio
holds `master` inside skyfx's closure and exposes only unlockAudio(). Asked in
THREADS. `sky.setMute?.(on)` behind a key the splash promises would be D's
night-3 soft-lock with a keycap on it — `rigging.setWorld?.(world)` sat in this
same file for a sprint doing nothing, silently, because ?.() on a missing method
looks exactly like a call. So the UI asks before it advertises, and M lights up
by itself the day C lands the tap.
TOUCH NOTICE. The naive check is the bug: `(pointer: coarse)` asks what the
PRIMARY pointer is, so a touchscreen laptop answers coarse and gets locked out
of a game it can play — worse than the dead canvas it replaces. `(any-pointer:
fine)` asks whether a mouse exists at all. Detection errs toward letting people
in; unknown browsers get the game, not a lecture.
DEV LINE. Out from under B's anchor panel (both were top-left, typesetting on
each other), and off unless localhost or ?dev=1 — a stranger on partly.party was
reading "60 fps · storm 12.3s · debris 4" on the front door.
selftest 338/0/0 (was 335).

SHADES — rig it, then survive the night
Geometry/tower-defense: you're a small person rigging shade sails against Australian storms. three.js r175 (vendored, no build step) + a zero-dep Python server. Everything the repo needs is in the repo.
Run it
python3 server.py --port 8801 # any free port
# game: http://localhost:8801/web/world/index.html
# selftest: http://localhost:8801/web/world/selftest.html (must be all green)
# 2D proto: http://localhost:8801/prototype/index.html (the original thesis)
No pip, no npm, no build. Python 3.8+ and a browser.

The lane model (how this repo is built)
Five parallel Opus agents ("lanes"), each in its OWN clone, on its own branch:
| lane | owns |
|---|---|
| A | main.js, world.js, camera, hud, week, sites, server — shell & integration, merge shepherd |
| B | sail.js, rigging — cloth sim, economy, balance.test pen |
| C | weather, skyfx, debris, storm/site wind data |
| D | player, interact, ladder, broom — and the designated playtester |
| E | Blender asset factory (tools/blender), models/, textures |
Hard rules (they exist because each was earned — see THREADS):
- One clone per lane. Never two agents in one working tree.
- Rebase onto latest
mainbefore starting; small commits; push your branch. - File ownership is the merge strategy; cross-lane needs go in THREADS.md.
- Selftest green after every landing. Skips must be real. An assert that cannot fail is decoration.
- All sim code is deterministic
(dt, t)— no Date.now, no rAF. - Measure, don't reason: the repo's biggest bugs were all "a number gathered from the wrong harness". When two harnesses disagree, find the variable.
Setup on a new machine
Gitea's SSH runs over tailscale (the public host is Cloudflare-proxied, no
direct SSH). Add to ~/.ssh/config:
Host gitea.partly.party
HostName 100.71.119.27
Port 222
User git
Then:
git clone git@gitea.partly.party:monster/shades.git ~/Documents/shades
for L in A B C D E; do
git clone git@gitea.partly.party:monster/shades.git ~/Documents/shades-lane$L
git -C ~/Documents/shades-lane$L checkout -B lane/$(echo $L | tr 'A-Z' 'a-z') origin/lane/$(echo $L | tr 'A-Z' 'a-z')
done
~/Documents/shades is the integration checkout (main; where merges and
sprint docs happen). The five shades-lane* clones are where lane agents run.
Per clone, once: cp .claude/launch.example.json .claude/launch.json and pick
a port of your own (integration 8823, lanes A–E 8824–8828). The real
launch.json is untracked — six checkouts on one laptop can't share one port.
Sprint cycle
- Fire lanes with the newest prompts at the bottom of
LANE_PROMPTS.md(Lane A usually first if the sprint gives it rulings/blocking items). - Lanes work, push their branches, log in THREADS.md.
- Integrate in the main checkout: merge
origin/lane/{e,c,b,d}(THREADS.md conflicts resolve keep-both-chronological; real code conflicts get read), run selftest, play the result, writeSPRINT(n+1).md+ prompts, push main AND fast-forward all fivelane/*branches to main.
