MATRIX GREEN 10 towns x 7 gates · scaffold_check GREEN (F's re-pins took) · flags harness green,
carrying the kill-the-server gate and the beta crate gate.
F RE-PINNED ITS OWN FILES per A's handoff (A doesn't edit other lanes' files, correctly):
GOLDEN_HASH 0x3fa36874 -> 0x5f76e76 · GIG_GOLDEN 0xb1d48ea1 -> 0xec7a2d39 · melbourne · katoomba
· the captions. AND A CAUGHT A LIVE HAZARD IN F'S GATE: hash_ok carried `or ('3fa36874' in
r.stdout)` — a bare-string OR-clause, dead the moment the covenant moved and worse than dead,
because it would go green off a SENTENCE ABOUT the old covenant appearing in stdout. Deleted.
The check derives from GOLDEN_HASH or it doesn't exist.
JOHN'S RULING IS THE EPOCH'S BEST LINE: the covenant is anti-drift machinery, not a defect
preservative. 0x3fa36874 did its job for five epochs — it never drifted. It just was never right,
and no hash can catch what was wrong in the first commit. A golden proves NOTHING CHANGED; it
cannot prove anything is CORRECT. Every gate we own was green over a world of back walls, and the
only thing that ever saw it was a human standing in the street looking at a wall.
THE FRONTAGE FRAME TOOK FIVE ATTEMPTS, FOUR OF THEM F'S FAULT:
1-3. cluster pose (the town's heart isn't this shop) / lot-anchored facing along the edge /
lot-normal facing — three photographs of empty road. Also never winnable: the shops faced
backwards the whole time. F was posing a camera at a wall and tuning the geometry.
4. B's helper — and F THREW THE RESULT AWAY. poseForShopFront RETURNS a pose; it does not
apply one. F called it, error-checked it, and never touched the camera, so the frame was
the spawn paddock — and F's error-check PASSED, because the call succeeded perfectly. The
vacuous check one last time, in the last frame of the epoch.
5. Applied it -> MONSTER ROBOT PARTY. Sign, door, awning, a ped walking in off Musgrave Road.
The measurement that would have found the facade bug in five minutes — compare the two
conventions against each other — is the one nobody ran for nine rounds, F included, right up to
the vacuous 72/72 F nearly filed as "B is wrong".

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.

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.

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
smoke's raycast-miss under fast headless AND improves real UX.
qa.sh --strict GREEN; flags_check GREEN (all 4 flags + all-on combo, 0 console errors).

interior_mode.js bridges Lane B's enterShop seam to Lane C buildInterior and Lane D
keepers (spawn at counter keeperStand, greet, leak-free over 5 cycles). CitizenSim
wired into the street loop (pop 140, ~96 active midday, worst ~191 draws). tools/:
qa.sh gate runner (all 4 landed gates GREEN --strict), scaffold/consistency checks,
shots.py + soak.py browser harnesses. docs/shots/ reference tree, LANE_F_NOTES
runbook, V2_IDEAS parking lot.
(F's inline seam edits to index.html/skins.js landed with the Lane B commit.)
