5815dfbd58 Lane E R24 (v5.0-alpha): the crate's real street, the honest gate, and Ballarat retired
THE STREET (ledger #3). redhill_real: Red Hill, Brisbane — 36 shops (9 heroes + 27 texture,
-29 subsampled), 884 roads, median NN 73 m. **Musgrave Road is in roads[] (41 ways, primary +
residential)** — that was the point: Monster Robot Party's real shop now has its real street.
One bounded Overpass fetch under the standing authorization; raw snapshots in _raw/, ODbL, C's
mapping. This is G's donor for godverse_town.py -> redhill_godverse.

TWO HAZARDS HANDED TO G/A, both measured against the real geometry (notes R24 §1):
(a) The shop is NOT in OSM — no shop=music node, no name match anywhere in the bbox (checked the
raw snapshot, not the emitted cache). It cannot arrive via the fetch; G must inject id 3962749
from the census or the town ships without the shop the release is about.
(b) THE SEATING HAZARD: A's lift seats on the NEAREST edge, and from G's geocode three streets
are nearer than the addressed one — Zig Zag Street 38.6 m (residential), Craig Street 46.1 m,
Musgrave Road 51.6 m. The shop would seat on Zig Zag St and the headline would quietly become
false. Measured fix (G's call): the point on the real Musgrave centreline nearest G's geocode is
-27.455169, 153.006902 — 0 m to Musgrave, next candidate 43 m. Snaps the street, does NOT verify
the house number; I have no address data for where #147 sits along the road.

THE HONEST GATE (ledger #4). F's catch was right and there were FOUR bugs: the glob used the
published-contract name the runtime can never load (0 matches -> returned 0: it passed identically
whether atlases were absent, misnamed, or perfect); the code read provenance top-level while my own
docstring said nested (G nested it correctly — the gate would have failed G's real artifact);
licence/license; and a stale ceiling. Rebuilt on the "runtime is the authority" ruling: globs
stock_godverse/<id>/stock_<type>_index.json, type in {record,book,toy}. Vacuous-gate law implemented
literally — 0 matches + stray files FAIL (listing them); 0 matches + empty dir prints
"atlas-QA SKIP: no atlases present (0 files matched glob ...)"; plus an id equality
(shop.godverse_id == dir) so it proves it touched its subject. Proved on four cases: empty -> loud
SKIP, misnamed (F's exact bug) -> FAIL, unparseable -> FAIL, G's real atlas -> PASS (120 items,
2 atlases, licence printed). My own test found a fifth hole — the glob still matched the old
stock_shop_* name, so the misnamed case failed only incidentally; added a STOCK_TYPES name check
so it fails for the RIGHT reason. A gate that fails for the wrong reason will pass for the wrong
reason later.

BALLARAT — RETIRED, counted, and a DIFFERENT illness from Toowoomba (notes R24 §3). Toowoomba was
dead everywhere. Ballarat is alive exactly where the game isn't: 103 POIs, densest 400 m disc = 47
of them (Toowoomba's was 3) — but that disc is cafes/clothes/bakeries while the op-shops sit 854 m,
1042 m and 1709 m out. Heroes and density don't coincide, so no bbox holds both. Real builds at
every span: 1.0 km -> 8 shops/184 m/hub 4-8 but ZERO op-shops (a thrift town with no thrift shop);
2.0 km -> 12/186 m/3-12; 3.0 km as shipped -> 20/255 m/4-20. Every row worse than any shipped town.
THE BINDING CONSTRAINT WAS MINE, NOT OSM'S: with 2 heroes the 3x texture cap keeps 6 of 47 texture
POIs and the subsample is spatially blind, so survivors scatter at any span — part of the 255 m A's
warn caught was my own cap's fingerprint. Seeding texture near heroes fixes the class but moves
every town's golden -> filed as a v5.x proposal, not done in a release round.

I OVERSTATED MY R23 ADVICE TO A: the hub fraction is NOT a standalone discriminator — glebe (shipped,
healthy) reads 13% and redhill 14%; a hub threshold would false-flag both. Median NN is the robust
primary; hub is only comparable at equal shop counts (toowoomba 2/12 vs darwin 7/12 was fair because
both had 12). The raw-vs-seated calibration point stands.

METHODOLOGY, recorded because it nearly shipped: I picked Ballarat's span from an offline simulation
that predicted 68 m / hub 5-8, and had already written those numbers into a config comment as fact.
The real build returned 184 m / 4-8 — same counts, different sample. Never trust a re-implementation
of the pipeline's own selection; run the pipeline.

-> A (batched pins): ADD REAL_TOWN_GOLDENS['redhill_real']=0x6046700f and
REAL_TOWN_GIG_GOLDENS['redhill_real']=0x673785ee (the headline town currently only WARNS as
UNPINNED — ungated until you pin it). REMOVE ballarat_real 0xf0a9e8a1 / 0xf097c331 — dead config by
your own R23 note.
-> F: tools/qa/tour_shots.py still shoots town=toowoomba_real, which I deleted in R23 — the v4 tour
breaks on a missing town. Your file, your call. A retirement isn't done when the cache is deleted;
it's done when the consumers are swept.
-> C: built to the runtime + G's real artifact per the ruling; LANE_C_PUB §7 line 271 still names the
contradictory stock_shop_<id>_index.json. I reconcile when your corrected contract lands.

Determinism receipt: the retirement forced a full 21-town rebuild from cached raw (no refetches) and
every existing cache came back byte-identical — only ballarat, redhill and index.json moved. Pack:
21 real towns · 1196 shops · 299 heroes (22 rostered with G's newtown_godverse). Selfcheck ALL GREEN
149,696, synthetic golden 0x3fa36874 unchanged. qa.sh --strict --matrix: 7 passed / 0 failed, MATRIX
GREEN 10x7.

84e0a1b764 Lane E R23 (v5.0-alpha): the atlas validator + toowoomba retired (ledger #4)
1. validate_atlas (the G2a format gate). pipeline/validate_atlas.py, wired into validate_manifest so it
   runs in qa gate 3. Judges Lane G's tier-1 atlases from the COMMITTED FILES ALONE -- no dealgod DB, no
   network. No atlases yet => clean pass, so it's in place before G's lands. Enforces: provenance
   {license, attribution, generator, snapshot} (charter law #3 + determinism); NO private-individual item
   fields (law #3); 1 atlas/shop hard cap 2 (C §7.1); <=1024², 2048² only for a 60+ item shop (C §7.2);
   declared atlas_px == the atlas's REAL pixels + every listed atlas exists; schema/UV/bands/dup-ids
   (C §7.3). The licence string is PRINTED, not pattern-matched -- clearing photos for public release is
   a human call, so the gate surfaces it. Dependency-free PNG/WebP header parser. Tested against a
   10-case matrix (real 2048² WebP + 1024² PNG): good passes clean, all 9 violations caught.

2. toowoomba RETIRED (my call, counted). Tried the re-bbox FIRST: 3.0km CBD-wide -> 1.6km on the Ruthven
   St heart. It fixed the named metric (median NN 395.7 -> 89.4m raw, 'passes') but made the real thing
   WORSE: hub density 3/12 -> 2/12 within 160m, the pack's worst (D's alive-darwin is 7/12). Its shops
   are PAIRS strung along a road, not a high street; densest 300m cluster is 3 shops (< MIN_TOWN_SHOPS),
   so no tighter box exists. Shipping it would have gamed the number while leaving a town nobody shops in
   (D: 0 finds / 1417 checks). Config entry kept commented with the rationale. Pack: 21 real + 1 godverse
   = 22 rostered, 1180 shops, all 8 states/territories (QLD keeps westend). selfcheck ALL GREEN 152015.

-> Lane A, before you freeze the spacing warn (#5): (a) your validator sees the CACHE (raw lat/lon) but
   D's numbers are SEATED (post-lift) -- darwin is 27m seated vs 68.3m RAW, so a threshold picked off D's
   table would FALSE-WARN darwin; calibrate on the raw spread (daylesford 11.6 ... braddon 119.2,
   ballarat 254.6 -- a ~200m line has daylight). (b) median NN alone is GAMEABLE: my re-bbox improved it
   4.4x while the town got worse -- the hub fraction is the discriminator, and my raw hub metric
   reproduces D's darwin exactly (7/12), so it's directly encodable (alive ~38-75%, dead <=20%).
   (c) ballarat is a SECOND spread town D's two-town comparison missed (NN 254.6m, hub 4/20 = 20%) -- it
   will trip your warn, correctly. Not retired: the ledger named toowoomba only.

8a383e494e Lane E R21 (v4.0): the town pack — 22 towns, 1192 shops (DATA-ONLY, non-gating)
Ledger #5 pull-forward. Nothing here touches a golden until A absorbs in R22; F tags v4.0-beta with
or without it. selfcheck ALL GREEN 154141/154141, synthetic 0x3fa36874 unmoved, all 22 byte-identical
on re-run.

- Curated 18 candidates on secondhand density first (heroes are the game), a walkable 2-3.4km centre,
  and a national spread; 17 survived -> 22 towns, 1192 shops, 298 heroes, all 8 states/territories.
  fitzroy is the mecca (40 heroes/160 shops, 2x katoomba); thin tail toowoomba/darwin (3 heroes) left
  in as honest data -- A/Fable may drop them in R22.
- FINDING: the 3x-hero cap is a CURATION FILTER, not just a density knob. Wollongong had ~62 real
  shops but 1 hero -> capped to 4 -> dropped by the >=6 floor. A town without a secondhand strip
  cannot inflate into a retail strip; John's SUBTLE directive does quality control for free.
- Newcastle: my centre was wrong, not the town (CBD held 2 heroes; the strip is Hamilton/Beaumont St).
  Re-centred: 2 -> 9 heroes, 8 -> 36 shops.
- BUG (mine, shipped R18, caught here): fetch_roads_raw had no query-comparison while fetch_raw did,
  so re-centring refetched shops but silently reused the OLD CBD roads -> Hamilton shops seated against
  a graph 2.5km away -> the town marched out with ZERO shops (surfacing as 32 bogus 'open-late
  invariant' failures; ten other no-video towns passing is what proved it wasn't the open-late rule).
  Fixed: the roads path now compares its query too -- the bbox lives in the query, so a re-centre must
  invalidate BOTH snapshots. Newcastle rebuilt: 34 shops seated, openLate=1.
- Discipline: bounded bboxes, raw snapshots committed (shops+roads), C's §6 mapping, SUBTLE guardrails
  (heroes never subsampled, texture 3x, 2392 drops counted), ODbL. Overpass rate-limits hard at pack
  scale (batch 1 died on a fatal 504 after 25 retries) -- courtesy sleep 4s, two polite batches.

-> Lane A (R22): 34 goldens to pin (17 new towns x base+gig); sizes 12->160 shops load-test your
   capacity/overflow fences. -> Lane B: index.json now lists 22 towns (your selector already reads it).

078245f7bd Lane E R20 (v4.0-beta): the density widening — widened fetch, 5 caches re-emitted, towns index
Ledger #2 (E's half), built to C's LANE_C_PUB §6 table under John's SUBTLE directive.

- Widened fetch: C's tasteful staple list (shop=* + amenity=cafe per C's dagger note), mapped through
  C's copy-paste table onto EXISTING registry types (no new archetypes). Guardrails honoured: no
  vehicle/fuel/funeral/storage/industrial, no pure services. New raw snapshot per town (the fetcher
  auto-refetches when the class list changes -- query recorded in each snapshot), committed like the first.
- SUBTLE by construction: secondhand HEROES never subsampled; texture capped at 3x heroes (top of C's
  ~2-3x band), over-cap towns seed-subsampled deterministically (sha256(townKey:osmId)) with every drop
  counted in counts.textureDropped. Result 3.0x in all five: katoomba 20+60 (-4), newtown 18+54 (-156),
  fremantle 20+60 (-81), bendigo 9+27 (-81), castlemaine 6+18 (-43). Density 6-21 -> 24-80 shops (3-4x).
- web/assets/towns/index.json (new, E-owned): {schema, generated, license, attribution, towns[{key, town,
  state, shops, roads}]} -- B's selector can drop the REAL_TOWNS hardcode (hud.js:11).
- Deterministic (byte-identical re-run, 0 re-fetch). ODbL: SOURCES.md + per-cache license/attribution.

-> Lane A (absorb pass): (1) 10 expected golden re-pins -- the widening moves every real town's base+gig
   golden (designed E->A handoff); synthetic 0x3fa36874 UNMOVED, fixtures frozen. (2) SEAM: index.json
   trips selfcheck's town glob (selfcheck.js:467 takes every top-level towns/*.json as a cache) -- one-line
   fix in your file: .filter(f => f.endsWith('.json') && f !== 'index.json'). Didn't touch selfcheck.js
   (yours, you're mid-round in it); Fable spec'd the index at this path so the path stays.
-> Lane C: kept video_games -> video (absent from your §6 table; was already shipping as video pre-widening,
   so the fallback would have regressed it to opshop). Same family, same target -- flagging for your table.

dbb52c2390 Lane E R18 (v4.0-alpha): katoomba_real real road geometry (schema v2, ledger #3)
Extend build_towns.py: bounded way[highway](bbox) out geom per town -> raw cached in-repo -> roads[]
in A's v2 contract ({id,kind,pts:[[lat,lon]]}, kind=raw OSM highway class). katoomba_real is now
schema v2 with 484 real streets (Bathurst Rd, Cliff Drive, ...). Fidelity cut (charter risk #4, flagged
to A): fetch every ROAD_KIND tier -> raw; EMIT the town street tier only, excluding service/track/
footway/path/steps/cycleway (1461 of 2506 Katoomba ways = bushwalking tracks/sidewalks/stairs/driveways).

A's lift builds a real town from it (verified): 484 streets -> 872 nodes/799 edges (main 232 side 531
arcade 36) -> 12 blocks, 20 lots, 3 venues (pub/band_room/rsl), 12 gigs. pickVenues lands venues on the
real graph (ledger #2 met).

FINDING for A (alpha failure-list, charter risk #3): on the real graph, spine posters overhang crossing
carriageways -- selfcheck kerb-clearance fails on 4 seeds (-1.6 to -2.5m; e.g. seed 20261990 poster 50 vs
edge 58 = -2.42m). Same class as A's R15/R16 corner-poster fix, now on real cross-street geometry. Owner:
A (pickVenues/POSTER_CLEAR on the real graph, the 'A again' harden step) -- my roads data is VALID (cache
validates; failures are plan-level poster placement). Golden settles after A's fix (pre-fix 0x6014a8e6).
ODbL: raw roads committed, SOURCES.md updated.

-> Lane A: katoomba roads live; harden the lift + resolve the poster finding + re-pin the golden.

483a4b75c6 Lane E R17 (v3.2): the real-map scout — 5 AU town caches + publish --verify fix
Ledger #4 (warm-up): publish.py --verify no longer false-flags non-procity_ published assets
(sit.glb, vintage-cash-register). It compares the _published.json name record against the depot's
full file list (fetch_depot_files) instead of a procity_ prefix filter; only OUR namespace flags as
unrecorded. --verify now: all 39 recorded assets live.

Ledger #6 (the scout): new pipeline/build_towns.py ports thriftgod build_city()'s Overpass route to
per-town caches in A's procity-town-cache/1 contract. 5 real compact AU towns under web/assets/towns/
(katoomba/newtown/fremantle/bendigo/castlemaine, 6-21 shops, spans <2.4km): bounded Overpass query ->
raw cached in-repo (re-runs never re-fetch) -> dedupe/suburb-fill/parody (trademarked chains only;
indie shops keep real OSM names)/type-map. Deterministic (byte-identical re-run, no RNG). ODbL:
SOURCES.md licence table + license/attribution on every cache. All 5 boot through the full
structural+gig suites (selfcheck 16596/16596 green; synthetic golden 0x3fa36874 unmoved). Overpass
fetch John-authorized (Standing #2).

-> Lane A: caches live under web/assets/towns/; pin the per-town goldens selfcheck printed (katoomba
   0x61760542 newtown 0x95978b45 fremantle 0xee9fd09a bendigo 0x5e3e76a6 castlemaine 0xf1a628a1) +
   feed through plan_osm. E->A handshake.
