The closing half of F's bookend. All gates green on the flipped tree (qa.sh --strict --soak: classic
regression + default-boot gate + smokes + no-giants incl. the seated drummer + the full-week soak).
- tour_shots.py -> docs/shots/release_v3_1/: the money shots on the DEFAULT boot (no per-shot flag juggling
now the flip covers it) + a ?classic=1 before/after ("the town before v3"). 7 shots, settled, 0 page errors.
- week_soak.py: re-pointed to the default boot; the leak check now treats an at/below-baseline OR non-climbing
trail as leak-free (a decreasing tex trail is GC/atlas-settle, not a leak — it was false-failing at warn-level).
- docs: README v3.1 flags table (defaults on + ?classic=1), CITY_SPEC v3.1 amendment (the rewritten prime
law + classic covenant, A's deferred edit), LANE_F_NOTES §16, F-progress R16.
Numbers (seed 20261990): default @ venue block 124 draws / 57k tris (<=300/200k); ?classic 161 draws / 24k
tris (the v2 baseline); seated drummer 1.32 m stature; week soak 42 cycles leak-free (net +0/-6).

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.

tools/qa/tour_shots.py: one deterministic run capturing the release set into docs/shots/release_v3/
(+ contact.html), grouped by the flags each shot needs, all seed 20261990:
- venue_night, district_posters, queue_night (John's HERO — now with A's flipped frontage poster VISIBLE
by the door), gig_interior (the 4-piece + real instruments + a roster crowd — 2 punters carried through),
rain_verandah, tram_stop
- settled discipline (ledger #5): every shot measured after the async instrument GLBs / poster textures /
chunk stream land (shoot-twice), from a clean per-group load; the queue is driven LIVE (explicit admits,
not rAF auto-drain which automation throttles)
The hero confirms ledger #1: the frontage poster reads from the street for the first time. Interior settles
35k->182k tris (draws 56 <= 350 gate). All street shots <=300 draws / <=200k tris. 0 page errors.

tools/qa/week_soak.py: rolls the day-clock through all 7 nights in one context, entering every playing
venue each night. Asserts latch state per plan.gigs (dark venues stay quiet), the cover STAMP per venue
per night (debited once, re-entry free, due again next night), tonight's roster clears per night (no
accumulation), and geo/tex return to a WARMED baseline across >=20 enter/exit cycles — leak proven by a
plateau (a real leak climbs every cycle; warm-up cache residue plateaus). Opt-in --soak warn-gate in
qa.sh (never blocks the tag; the core 6 stay a fast strict run).
Verified seed 20261990: 2 playing (Exchange Hotel + RSL) + 1 dark, 28 cycles, $60 covers, geo/tex flat
across the back half (115/86 -> 115/84), 0 console errors.

The ped you followed into a venue now turns up in its crowd. D published the seam in R14; F wires the three touches:
- interior_mode.js: crew.spawn({ roster: rosterOf(shop.id) }) — the front crowd slots become tonight's roster
- index.html: rosterOf=(id)=>citizens.tonightRoster(id) into interior_mode; onAdmit=(e)=>citizens.recordVenueEntry(id,e)
on the queue (each admit relays into the roster); the clear is automatic on the existing setGig(id,false)
- flags_check.py: smoke_continuity — asserts the seam (crowd includes roster-cap, pedIndex in tonightRoster),
empty-roster injects nobody (shell side of D's byte-identical law), + ledger #5 settled-tris honesty
Verified: 2 queue admits carry into the crowd; empty roster 0-injected; settled interior 71k->182k tris
(C's finding — interior gate is draws <=54, no violation). 0 console errors.

The compat alias delegating to the primary venue is gone — every read is now keyed by venueShopId.
B swept the cross-lane readers in R14; this migrates F's own tools + the spec, one atomic commit.
- gig_state.js: delete the alpha-shape alias block + the now-unused primaryId/P; update() just ticks all latches
- flags_check.py + gig_shot.py: .venueShopId->venueShopIds[0], .state->stateOf(id), .cover->coverOf(id), .bandName->bandNameOf(id)
- CITY_SPEC \S v3: delete the two alias sentences, add the omitted nightOf(id) to the accessor list
selfcheck 14264/14264 green (base 0x3fa36874, gig 0x4f4a549d); flags_off + smoke_gigs green, 0 warn.

Wires A–E + D's district together and fires it. Seed 20261990 → "Boolarra Heads": 3 venues, 2 playing
tonight (The Exchange Hotel pub gig-pubrock + an RSL gig-covers, one dark), Screaming Utes $10 on the door.
- gig_state.js → PER-VENUE latches off the shared procity:segment spine (one per venueShopId); all three
hard-won R12 laws kept. New runtime surface window.PROCITY.gigs.byVenue + onOf/openOf/gigOf/coverOf/
bandNameOf/paidOf(id) + markPaidOf/venueShopIds; the R12 single-venue alias kept for one round.
- interior_mode.js: crowd-walla rides the interior tone layer under the live band bed while `on`; an
applause sting fires once on the on->done edge. DELETE the GIG_BED bridge — debt #1, and it was a LIVE
BUG: E renamed pubrock-live->gig-pubrock, so the bridge (gig-pubrock->pubrock-live) pointed at a dead
key => the band would have mimed in silence. room.audio.gigKey (already the manifest key) feeds directly.
- index.html: per-venue cover charge (a night at two venues is two covers), concurrent per-venue setGig
surges, and the outdoor VenueQueue lifecycle (D shipped the class + left the street-side seam to F:
spawn at doors off B's queueZoneFor, drive each frame, dispose by done), exposed as queueCountOf(id).
- interior_scale_check.py: human-size assert now measures STATURE (crown-foot, platform-independent);
world-crown ceiling-clip assert kept as its own line (debt #6).
- flags_check.py smoke_gigs -> THE DISTRICT: band->4, per-venue loop (every gigKey resolves across 3
genres, crowd <= its own watchPoints, no-giants by stature), street budget at the busiest venue block,
the queue assert; plus the R12 determinism/cover/noassets/flags-off arms.
- CITY_SPEC: pin the window.PROCITY.gigs runtime surface. gig_shot.py -> r13 interior + venue_night shots.
qa.sh --strict GREEN 6/6, 0 warn. Interior 63 draws/35k tris; street @ venue block 121 draws/51k tris;
band+crowd stature 1.61-1.81 m under a 4 m ceiling; flags-off fingerprint 0x3fa36874 unchanged.

F last: five landed lanes → one Friday night. Seed 20261990 → The Thornbury Hotel,
tonight SCREAMING UTES, $10 on the door. qa.sh --strict GREEN 6/6.
- gig_state.js (new, F-owned): quiet → doors (DUSK) → on (NIGHT) → done (DAWN) → quiet.
Rides lighting's procity:segment event (a poll only sees the segments it samples, and
missed the night roll entirely); `state` is a getter because B's audio reads it from its
own rAF while the player is inside a shop.
- ?gigs=1 seam: custom_bands.json fetched in the bootstrap (no fetch flag-off or ?noassets)
→ generatePlanFor(seed, src, {gigs:true, customBands}). 7 of John's 10 names fill the week.
- Cover charge on the R8 buy seam, zero new UI: paid debits once with a toast, re-entry the
same night is free, broke → polite knockback, free nights walk straight in.
- interior_mode: opts.gig → C's gigKey; D's GigCrew (band 3 + crowd 8, 3 dancing) at C's
stage/watch points; both disposed with the room (leak-free over 4 cycles).
- Cross-lane fix at the glue: C emits gigKey 'gig-pubrock', E shipped the bed as
'pubrock-live' — unresolved the pub plays to a silent room and nothing errors. Bridged
here; C/E/Fable owe CITY_SPEC a contract line. Details + 2 more findings in LANE_F_NOTES §12.
- smoke_gigs (16 gates): schedule determinism, band==3, crowd ≤ watchPoints, dance mix, bed
resolves, ≤350 draws (47 rig / 171 placeholder), no-giants by STATURE (the band stands on a
0.32m deck, so world-crown fails a correct band), cover ruling, ?noassets+?gigs.
Flags-off regression gains a v3 arm: no state machine, no plan.gigs, no pub, no venue geo.

Interior audio (interior_mode): enter -> PROCITY.audio.playInterior(room.audio) with Lane C's
{musicKey,toneKey} (fade in), exit -> stopInterior() (0.7s fade). Guarded/no-op when
muted/noassets/pre-gesture -- silent-and-happy.
New smoke_audio gate (flags harness, fresh Chromium per the R10 standing law): pre-gesture silence
(ctx not unlocked), 0 boot errors, ?mute=1 muted, ?noassets=1 zero audio fetches, enter/exit
AudioNode leak-free (12 cycles, 8 shops with a music bed, live sources bounded at 5). Gesture via
keyboard -- a mouse-click gesture tripped PointerLockControls in headless.
scaffold_check: scoped the Math.random generation-ban to exempt runtime FX PLAYBACK
(web/js/world/audio.js) -- Lane B's footstep SFX variant/gain jitter is transient, not world
generation (which shop plays which bed is seeded upstream in interiors.js). Noted to B.
Soak with audio on PASS (heap 48MB stable, 0 errors, no drift). qa.sh --strict GREEN 6/6.

Verified Lane D's R10 buildFigure span-normalize fix: qa.sh --strict GREEN 6/6 incl. the new
no-giants scale gate (24 interior figs / 6 shops all crown 1.4-2.0m, under-ceiling). The 3.83m I
first measured live was a STALE ES-module cache in a day-old browser tab, not a regression
(served rigs.js + fresh-chromium gate both correct).
Re-shot the v2 tour on the fixed tree: browsers.png now shows human-sized figures (browser at the
rack + keeper at the counter). night_crowd.png re-framed to a readable clean-night "lit VIDEO REGAL
amid CLOSED town" (pulled out of the rain group; reuses night_neon's tighter dist-12 pose).
Honest finding: night_crowd has no visible street crowd and can't without new work. Lane D's night
patronage parks ducked-in patrons hidden INSIDE the shop (they are the interior browsers), and this
seed's video shop is a low-traffic corner (tested: 0 patronage / 0 visible at night). Flagged for D;
a visible outdoor night queue is a v3 mechanic. ~20fps in night captures is a headless software-GL
artifact (scene is light: 128 draws / 65k tris).
Full-default soak PASS (heap 54MB stable, no perf drift, 0 errors). Tour README updated with stable
v2 filenames. v2.0 annotated tag staged separately (push held for John — public release + the
night_crowd caveat on his flagged money shot).

R9 blocker: interior rig figures were ~2x too tall (keeper crown 3.83m in a 3.4m room,
clipping the ceiling). Root cause in rigs.js buildFigure: it normalised scale by height/headY,
where headY is the head bone's world Y in BIND POSE — but the Mixamo skeleton origin is the hips
(~mid-body), so headY is head-above-hips (~half the standing height), not feet->crown. Every rig
came out ~1.83-2.0x too tall. (The head does NOT move when posed — bind crown 3.209m vs idle
3.205m — so it's a hips-relative measure, not an animation issue.)
Fix: normalise by the feet->crown span (headY - minY, both already computed). buildFigure(rig, h)
now lands the crown at exactly h above planted feet. Fixes keepers, browser rigs, near-tier street
rigs AND the impostor bake (all ride buildFigure). Verified: all 19 fleet rigs crown==1.75m; live
keeper 3.83m -> 1.82m; determinism + dispose-leak soak unchanged.
Regression guard (required): new tools/qa/interior_scale_check.py (Playwright) enters a sample of
shops, injects browser rigs at browse points, asserts every interior fig crown in [1.4,2.0]m AND
< room dims.H AND feet planted. Wired into tools/qa.sh --strict (run_gate => a giant fails qa).
Proven bidirectional: PASS on the fix (24 figs/6 shops), FAIL on a reintroduced giant. Full
qa.sh --strict: 6 passed, 0 failed.
Re-shot laneD/r10_browsers_fixed.jpg. Figures human-sized relative to doors/fittings: yes.

Wiring (F owns index.html + interior_mode.js):
• Interior presence (C->D->F seam): occupancyOf closure -> interior_mode spawns browser rigs at
C's room.browsePoints (one per patronage occupant, cap 3); freed by exit()'s keepers.disposeAll.
Door points now carry shopId for D's occupancy truth.
• Tram (Lane B, ?tram=1): createTram + update in loop (2 draws, non-blocking).
• Buy-anywhere (Lane C C2): E aimed at a book-spine/toy-box buyMesh buys over the same wallet
(collapseBuyItem + toast); preload book+toy packs too. Records keep the dig.
Harness: graduated buy-v0 / patronage / book-toy stock warn->STRICT (katoomba golden already
strict). New warn smokes: interior presence (browsers==min(occ,3), dispose clean), shelf-buy
(book spine bought, cash drops), tram (present). Book-stock check now counts isStock OR buyMesh
(C2 tags book spines buyMesh, not isStock). flags_check GREEN 0/0; qa.sh --strict GREEN 5/5.

Shell seams (F owns index.html): A &town=<key> -> generatePlanFor(seed,'osm',{town}) (Katoomba);
B weather (createWeather on ?weather=1; PROCITY.weather={state,intensity}, {clear,0} off; update in
loop); C session wallet bound to the dig BUY (getCash/onBuy in interior_mode); D patronage door
points -> citizens.setShops + ?patronage=0 off-switch + setWeather each frame.
Harness: stock=real + weather=rain graduated warn -> STRICT. New warn smokes: buy-v0 (dig BUY ->
wallet, cash 191->179 bag 0->1), patronage (7 peds visit shop doors/~18s), book/toy stock (6/11
real atlas meshes). Determinism gate: pinned osm/katoomba golden 0x0f652510 keyed on (seed,plansrc,
town) + fixed a hex zero-pad bug the katoomba golden exposed (0x0f652510 vs unpadded 0xf652510).
No patronage baseline re-pin needed (nets fewer draws, within tolerance). qa.sh --strict GREEN 5/5.

qa.sh: flags harness warn_gate → run_gate — flags-off regression + the 4 existing flags +
all-on combo are now STRICT (a harness FAIL fails qa). New flags stay warn-level in-harness.
?stock=real wiring (F owns the shell + interior bridge): shell preloads the record stock pack
(preloadStockPack('record'), fail-soft, off under ?noassets) + passes stockReal to the bridge.
interior_mode builds makeStockAdapter(getStockPack(shop.type)) and passes it to BOTH buildInterior
(static crate sleeves) and dig.open (riffle) — null pack → parody canvas (Lane C fail-soft).
Harness: added stock=real smoke (assert non-parody = batched userData.isStock atlas meshes > 0;
verified 7 real sleeves in the record shop) + weather=1 smoke (auto-skips until Lane B lands),
both warn-level (decision #4). qa.sh --strict GREEN (5 gates); crates now show real covers.

The first deliberate flags-off baseline change. On D's GO (43edabf: E1 ped sub-mesh merge
447188a validated → ~1 draw/near-rig → full density 241 worst-street draws <=300, leak-free).
index.html: chunk-streamed roster default-on (chunkStream:{radius:2}); ?roster=v1 restores the
old fixed roster (escape hatch); ?roster=stream still accepted (now a no-op). Hours-aware
setNightLivelyChunks keeps the open-late block lively at night.
Flags-off regression baseline RE-PINNED (same commit, prime-law amendment):
OLD (roster-off, v1.1): 163 draws, 19000 tris
NEW (roster default-on, R7): 164 draws, ~66000 tris
Draws barely move — E1's merge makes each near-rig ~1 draw (exactly what gated the flip). The
tris jump is the streamed crowd (D worst-view 65,899); it is frame-variable, so the drift WARN
is now DRAWS-ONLY, tris guarded by the STREET_TRIS_MAX hard cap. PLAN GOLDENS UNCHANGED
(synthetic 0x3fa36874, osm 0x34cfdec0).
Also fixed the harness roster probe (read a nonexistent prop c.streaming → was blind to
streamMode) + flipped the assertion to REQUIRE streamMode on default boot + added a ?roster=v1
escape-hatch check. flags_check GREEN; qa.sh --strict green; 0 console errors both modes.

Added an interior draw-budget sweep to flags_check.py (decision #2): enter all 9 shop types,
assert <=350 draws/room, dig on so it also confirms C1's batching kept ?dig=1 riffling.
The sweep caught a real bug in interior_mode.js (F-owned): the interior/dig render never called
renderer.info.reset() while the shell runs autoReset=false (for the composer), so
renderer.info.render.calls ACCUMULATED every frame — inflating any interior draw read (and the
HUD were it shown). Fixed: reset per interior frame before both the dig and the walk render.
True per-frame result after the fix: all 9 room types <=350 draws (worst dept 96) — C1 batching
(35981ad) verified. flags_check GREEN (regression + interior budget + 4 flag smokes + all-on combo).

A landed the plansrc seam (52eb109); F owns the shell bootstrap. index.html: ?plansrc=osm
-> citygen.generatePlanFor(seed,'osm') (real-data 'Melbourne' 95 shops); default synthetic
'Boolarra Heads' unchanged (prime law). scaffold_check.mjs: pin BOTH goldens keyed by
(seed,plansrc) — synthetic 0x3fa36874, osm 0x34cfdec0 (deterministic) — + assert the selector
routes synthetic|osm. flags_check auto-detects + smokes plansrc + the all-on combo (4 flags).
interior_mode.js: restored binUnderAim's nearest-bin fallback (Lane C test-page parity) so E
riffles a nearby bin without perfect aim / before the bin GLB async-loads — fixes the dig

tools/flags_check.py — the machine version of the R5 review, headless, self-contained
server, ~90s:
• flags-off regression (prime-law enforcement): plan fingerprint == golden 0x3fa36874,
all v2 subsystems inactive, street view within v1 budget (<=300 draws / <=200k tris),
within 40% of the v1.1 snapshot, 0 console errors.
• per-flag smoke (winmap/dig/roster, +plansrc auto-detected when A lands): boot flag-on,
cross >=2 chunks, enter an interior; dig also opens+closes a riffle. 0 console errors.
• all-on combo (flag-composition law, decision #4): every landed flag on at once.
Wired into qa.sh as a WARN-level gate (strict in r7): --no-flags skips fast; auto-skips
without the Playwright venv; a soft_skip so it never trips --strict readiness. Current tree:
all smokes GREEN, regression clean.

Gate table (LANE_F_NOTES §4) rewritten to R4 all-green with measured evidence:
1 determinism (selfcheck 1301/1301, fingerprint 0x3fa36874) · 2 soak (37 chunks/20 shops,
heap 38->38MB, 0 errors, leak-free) · 3 budget (draws 138/tris 31k, decimated peds) ·
4 asset-free (heap 13->13MB, 0 net) · 5 selfchecks (qa.sh --strict 4/4, 23 GLBs on depot) ·
6 shots (10 full-frame 1280x720, no letterbox, night closed-facade + real interiors).
shots.py: interior tour shots (record/opshop) now capture via DBG.enterShop(id) directly —
they were passing {type} to enterShop (needs id) then calling shot() (which forces street
