4514cb94b5 Lane B R38 (v8 WAVE 1, INHABITATION): all four runtime items — the whole round costs +1 walked draw
The town is inhabited: 23 towns finally differ, 181 back yards have a Hills Hoist with washing on it,
a magpie owns one street for six weeks of the year, and six point sources put a life off-screen.

MEASURED, walked, not bookmarked — two port-isolated no-store servers (:8472 = `git archive HEAD`,
:8471 = treatment, assets symlinked so E's mid-round wave is identical on both sides), 102 8-metre
spine steps at yaw 0, each frame fully streamed, through the shell's own composer:

  worst draws  224 -> 225   (+1)
  worst tris   89,502 -> 93,298   (+3,796 of ~75k spare)
  sum draws over 102 frames  16,676 -> 16,663   (-13)

The citizen sim and the tram are hidden identically on both sides, and that IS the measurement: with
them live the same step read control 346 vs treatment 232, because peds spawn on wall-clock time.
`?yards=0` reproduces HEAD exactly (224 / 89,502 / 16,676). Isolated at a fixed pose: washing +1 draw
/ +512 tris, magpie +1 draw / +182 tris, every yard box prop +0 draws.

§1.2 THE CHARACTER VECTOR — +0 draws, +0 tris, classic byte-identical BY CONSTRUCTION.
`townCharacter(null)` returns the frozen v1 literals and a null tint keeps the SAME material cache key,
so classic gets the same object, not a copy of it: default-boot ground hashes identical to HEAD
mesh-for-mesh, `?classic=1` hashes unmoved from R37. There is no `if (classic)` in the ground path.
The sky feeds the BASE skyName, never `setSky` (a one-way latch that would have killed R32's dawn dome
on all 23 towns). The vacuous arm is per-town: `newtown_godverse` / `redhill_godverse` carry `state: ''`,
so a per-corpus arm would have dropped exactly those two silently. 21 distinct palettes across 23 towns.
`gravel` and `reddust` were not unwired but UNWIREABLE — their `use` values named no slot ground.js had;
making the slot addressable fixed it at the root, and both are selected now. E's three new grounds
landed mid-round and the upgrade was a name change in one table, which is what procedural-first is for.

§1.4 BACKYARD AUSTRALIA — inside boxMats, +0 draws. Houses inset off their boundaries so there is a
yard; 36 `yard` lots that had rendered as blank shopfront sheds since v1 are now fenced blocks with a
hoist, a shed and often a tank. Collision byte-identical (the lot rect is where the fence stands).

THE WASHING SHIPS, and I wrote the inverted weight rather than dropping it. The shipped top-weighted
mode moves a hem 0.10 cm calm / 0.67 cm gusty; `pegged` gives 4.5 cm / 31 cm — ~52x, and at the hem
instead of the pegs. The `canopy` string is byte-for-byte unchanged, so the gum-tree covenant argument
is untouched. It is ONE TOWN-WIDE InstancedMesh (1 draw at any N, cap 256, proximity-first off the R37
chunk seam) rather than per-chunk, which would have been +1 x 31 live chunks = 4x the whole margin.
Zero on every real town (no hoists ⇒ no mesh) and zero at night.

§1.3 THE MAGPIE — +1 draw on screen, exactly 0 otherwise; 182 tris of 900. Territory scales with the
road graph: 6 on the 6.78 km synthetic town, 157 on bendigo's 188.6 km / 2,593 edges, nearest 120 m
from spawn. The latch sets, the day roll clears it, localStorage gains no key and the save never
mentions it. `swoopPos()` is exported and pure. The hat stays cut.

MY OWN SEASON MECHANISM WAS VACUOUS AND THE SWEEP CAUGHT IT: keyed on citySeed alone it produced a
CONSTANT, because the town key is deliberately off the plan — 24 of 24 towns were 214 days from
swooping season, and it would have gated green because `?magpie=1` forces it. Re-keyed on
(citySeed, townKey): `newtown_real` is in season on arrival on the default seed, marrickville is 8 days
out, and 12.9% of 1,000 seeds put the synthetic default in season against a design ratio of 11.5%.

§1.1 THE AUDIO LAYER — six new mixer layers, zero draws, zero tris, seeded anchors, distance falloff,
AND A StereoPannerNode PER LAYER, so direction is real (measured spread -0.71..+0.85) instead of a
limitation written into the notes. Day-of-week derived locally. All six anchored on the default boot;
3 of 6 report `no-anchor` on real towns rather than being faked onto shopfronts. The falsifiability
control — one manifest key renamed away, served from a third port — makes that source report
`no-entry`, 0 plays, never `audible`, with the other five unchanged and zero console errors.

TWO DEFECTS MY OWN GREEN NUMBERS COULD NOT SEE, both caught by a screenshot: the washing shipped at 256
instances / +1 draw / cap respected and was INVISIBLE behind its own back fence (per-instance peg height,
and a fence taller than the hoist), and the magpie perched on THIN AIR over the road. R37's lesson
relearned at full price. Fence 1.60 / hoist 2.15 measured against the object; territories now snap to
furniture.js's own streetlight rule.

LANE E'S PROPS, ADJUDICATED: hoist + aerial permanently primitive (E's spike killed them, and primitive
is also the +0-draw mechanism). `paling_fence` at 1,121 tris x 905 runs = 1.01M triangles — no. The
`magpie` GLB is HELD FOR THE TINT: it reads as a crow, and a magpie seen for 1.2 s in peripheral vision
IS its white bar. My 182-tri bird already carries it, at a fifth of the triangles and no fetch.
furniture.js's "novelty_record is 26.5k tris" was stale by six epochs — corrected to 8,000.

Zero fetch delta: `?noassets=1` fetches the same 23 assets, same list, on HEAD and on R38.
0 console errors on 10 boots (default, classic, yards=0, washing=0&magpie=0&ambient=0, noassets,
magpie=1, darwin, hobart, bendigo, the patched-manifest control) beyond the known PointerLock ones.

2f4ab5912f Lane B R26 (v5.0-beta): the stocked shopfront reads from the footpath
Ledger #5 — B's polish pick. A stocked godverse shop now tells you it's
diggable before you reach the door: a crate of seeded spines under the shop
name, and a warm-lamp-over-crates room behind the glass.

Cost: +0 draws / +0 tris. The mark is painted into the chunk's EXISTING
sign-atlas cell; the window cue rides the EXISTING per-shop aTint attribute.
Nothing new is allocated or submitted.

The manifest is the authority, deliberately NOT the godverseShopId key: keyed
means "has a stock identity", the manifest means "a crate is actually here".
Marking keyed-but-unstocked shops would advertise a crate the shop hasn't got
— the street would lie. The mark does not leak tier: "you can dig here" is
equally true of real and mint; provenance belongs on C's price card and in E's
gates. (Second job for ledger #6's manifest, free.)

Measured — true A/B at one pose, manifest 200 vs 404:
  spine-marked sign cells   0 → 3 (18,768 exact-palette px)
  stocked window tint verts 0 → 36
  street_noon               65 draws / 115,502 tris → UNCHANGED
Stocked shopfront (Goulds Books, footpath): 85 draws / 144,730 tris — inside
street law (<=300 / <=200k). Cues agree with ground truth: 3 stocked shops
live → 3 marked cells, 9 stocked window quads.

Covenants re-proved (the prefetch is new code on the boot path), tested with
the manifest present on disk so a stray fetch would 200 and be unmissable:
  ?classic=1        0 keyed, 0 stock fetches, 0 errors  (zero-fetch covenant)
  default synthetic 0 keyed, 0 stock fetches, 0 errors
  manifest 404      18 keyed, fail-soft, 0 page errors

Three traps, self-caught: (1) a module-load fetch would have put a fetch delta
on ?classic=1 — restructured to a lazy reader + plan-driven prefetch, keyed
plans only; (2) the lazy trigger alone raced the first chunk build, so the
first stocked shop you approach built unmarked — prefetch moved to
createChunkManager, before any chunk builds; (3) the first "zero cost" was
VACUOUS (manifest never fetched, so nothing was applied) and the first pixel
detector reported 60 marked cells with no treatment at all — replaced with an
exact-palette signature that reads 0 in control. Vacuous-gate law applies to a
lane's own verification too. Corollary: force-cache serves a deleted file
(transferSize 0, status 200 while disk 404s) — poison the cache or you are
testing your own memory.

B consumes stock_godverse/index.json read-only and emits nothing into it; the
temp manifest used to prove this round was deleted — the directory is G's.
Shape-tolerant + fail-soft, so G's real emission needs no coordination with B.

a4946b7ca2 Lane F R16 (v3.1 THE FLIP): defaults on + ?classic covenant + seated-stature gate (ledger #1, #3)
The town shows its best by default. gigs / weather / winmap / tram flip ON (each keeps a ?flag=0 opt-out;
?classic=1 forces the exact v2 boot). The prime-law covenant MOVED from "flags off" to "?classic=1" —
byte-identical forever (synthetic fingerprint 0x3fa36874). The default boot is now the full experience,
deterministic to the gig golden 0xb1d48ea1 (A's R16 corner-poster re-pin).

- index.html: CLASSIC + flagOn(); gigs/weather/tram default-on; loadPedFleet({sit:!CLASSIC}) for the seated
  drummer (?classic keeps the zero-fetch-delta covenant); a window.PROCITY.flags intent surface for the gates
- buildings.js: winmap default-on + classic-aware (the one cross-lane flip line the flag placement requires)
- flags_check.py: flags_off_regression -> classic_regression (?classic=1 byte-identical); a new default_boot_gate
  (all four flags on, gig layer present, gig golden, budget); every gig smoke re-pointed at the DEFAULT boot
- seated-stature gate (ledger #3, published for D): interior_scale_check.py + flags_check.py accept
  fig.userData.procitySeated at stature [0.9,1.5] m (the drummer); standing figs stay [1.4,2.0]
- qa.sh flags-harness gate name updated (classic regression + default-boot gate)

Verified: ?classic byte-identical (0x3fa36874, gig layer absent); default boot = the full town (14 gigs, 15
posters, tram, gig golden green, 112 draws @ the venue block); the seated drummer passes at 1.32 m stature;
district (3 venues / 3 genres), continuity, and cover all green on the default boot.

2a923b61e6 Lane B round-5 (v2): parallax interior-mapping window glass behind ?winmap=1
The Vuntra window trick — a passing pedestrian sees a plausible room through the shop glass with real
parallax, no geometry. One shared ShaderMaterial does single-cube interior mapping on the existing
window mesh (back wall + seeded shelves + side walls + floor/ceiling); per-shop variation via
aTangent/aTint/aSeed attributes, still 1 window draw/chunk. §3.5 held via the shared uHour/uNight +
aHours: night → open room glows warm, closed room dark.

v2 prime law: WINMAP is read from the URL in buildings.js (self-contained — no index.html seam; F
just needs a flags-table row). Flag-OFF byte-identical to v1 (windowQuad → v1 hoursQuad, v1
windowMaterial). Proven: flag-off windows MeshStandardMaterial w/ no winmap attrs; flag-on interior
ShaderMaterial; worst view 122-168 draws (<=300); 100% procedural (0 fetch delta vs ?noassets
baseline); 0 console errors; GOLDEN.hash untouched. Screenshots in docs/shots/laneB/winmap_*.

qa.sh --strict GREEN (4/4).

6323d58736 Lane B round-4: closed facades (§3.5) + shot poses/letterbox + furniture GLB + novelty_record
- B1: per-shop closed-facade visuals — dark windows + red CLOSED plate + door tooltip, batched via a
  per-vertex aHours attr + two shared shaders + one uHour/uNight uniform pair on a procity:segment
  event (facade atlas untouched, no per-shop materials, no per-frame poll). 22:00 → only the openLate
  video shop lit, all others CLOSED; ~200 draws worst-view with citizens.
- B2: the shots 'letterbox' was camera-jammed-into-a-wall poses, not a composer bug (composer proven
  correctly sized headless). Reframed street_noon/arcade/warehouse to look down a street
  (streetViewPose), added the 3 missing bookmarks, night_neon now frames the lit video shop amid
  CLOSED neighbours, + a defensive composer resize. shots.py: 10 un-letterboxed shots, 0 errors.
- B3: furniture GLB use-if-ready upgrade (bench + food_cart, sit on their footprints) + novelty_record
  placed at record stores. novelty_record GLB is 26.5k tris (5x glb_law) → stays low-poly primitive
  until Lane E decimates it; ?noassets verified 0 network.

qa.sh --strict GREEN (4/4).

5313402e43 Lane B (Streetscape): chunk-streamed walkable town shell
First-person shell: chunk streaming, instanced buildings + facade texture atlas
(22 facade materials -> 1; 5 skin materials city-wide), signs, awnings, furniture,
day/night lighting, minimap, pixel-accurate collision (incl. arbitrary-angle lots),
door raycast -> procity:enterShop, DBG harness, all-fallback mode. Renders Lane A's
full generated town (seed 20261990 'Boolarra Heads', 493 shops); worst continuous-
walk view ~261 draws (<=300 gate). 6 adversarial-review bugs fixed (collision sign,
house doors, awning skin, sign atlas, furniture seed hash, shot-mode restore).

index.html and skins.js include Lane F's inline integration seam edits (marked
'[Lane F integration]'): interior/keeper/citizen wiring + facade filename fix.
