2491f1c8ec Lane F R31 wave 2 (v7.0-alpha close): THE SHOT + the ledger. docs/shots/v7_alpha/crate_panel.png — the alpha's face: Monster Robot Party's real frontage, THE CRATE open with 3 real finds (real cover thumbs, paid/where/day honest), game bar day 1 · $116 · CRATE 3 · SLEEP, driven through the REAL loop with the dig param ABSENT (the R31 flip carries the shot), 0 console errors. LANE_F_NOTES §31 (the flip both ways, the two new gate legs + their negative control, harness lesson #4 — the explicit-flag blindfold, THE BETA QUEUE filed) + F-progress R31. Tag v7.0-alpha rides this commit, LOCAL ONLY — Fable reviews and pushes.

b2d29ba112 Lane F R27 (v5.0): the covenant re-pinned, the frame that took five tries, QA GREEN
qa.sh --strict --matrix: 7 passed / 0 failed / 0 warn. selfcheck ALL GREEN 156,352/156,352 ·
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".

630042fbe1 Lane F R27: the kill-the-server gate GREEN — and two corrections to F's own gate
THE KILL-THE-SERVER GATE, permanent and green (charter law #1 made falsifiable):
  ARM 1 server-up   · gone[3] → 117 survivors · items[] 120, identity AND ORDER intact ·
                      COLLATERAL 0 · `gone` carries the atlas id verbatim (R26 fence)
  ARM 2 killed mid-session · enter 6ms vs control 6ms (Δ+0) · worst frame 204ms vs control
                      202ms (Δ+2) · room complete from files · ZERO game errors · EXACTLY 1
                      refused connection
  ARM 3 server-down boot   · pure tier 1, gone[0] · ZERO game errors · exactly 1 refusal
  SANDBOX · POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE all 501 · a mint shop 404s
The subject exists only because G built `make-fixture`: production `gone` is EMPTY (0 sales
since 2026-07-01), so this gate would have passed vacuously forever on live data.

CORRECTION 1 — "ZERO console errors on server death" is UNACHIEVABLE, and F measured why. A
fetch to a dead host logs net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED at the BROWSER level; no .catch() sees it.
To log zero the reader would have to know the server is dead WITHOUT ASKING. One refusal is the
irreducible cost of discovering death. F's replacement is strictly stronger: ZERO errors from
game code, and EXACTLY ONE refusal — which PROVES the circuit breaker. Without the breaker it is
one error per shop entry forever, and "zero" could never tell a working breaker from a broken
one because both fail it. F is the beneficiary of this change, so it is filed loudly in §27 for
Fable to ratify or overrule, not quietly relaxed.

CORRECTION 2 — F's frame assertion was weak: `< 250ms` is a number with no control. ARM 2 first
reported worst-frame 201ms and PASSED. But entering a shop rebuilds an interior, which costs the
same with or without a server — so an absolute threshold measures Lane C's room build, not the
network. The arm now walks the same shop with the breaker tripped and asserts the DELTA: 202ms
control, 204ms killed, Δ+2ms. The death cost nothing the room didn't. F told A the same thing one
round ago; a number without a control is not a measurement.

THE TOUR — 3 of 4 frames, and the 4th is FILED NOT SHIPPED. The real crate (the money shot: its
own 120 records, price stickers, the keeper), a mint crate (captioned MINT — plausible, not
real), the classic covenant. 0 page errors. The FRONTAGE frame does not land after three
attempts and F will not ship a frame that doesn't show what its caption claims: the cluster
primitive answers "where is this town's heart", which is not the question a frontage frame asks
— Red Hill's heart is 2 shops/60m and does not contain Monster Robot. Next: ask B, who owns the
frontage and shipped its mark this round. Re-deriving B's anchor in a tour script is how you get
three bad frames.

Also: the interior beauty shot came back with the HUD across it — R21's lesson, fixed on the
street frames only. Now every DOM overlay is hidden, not a guessed selector list.

NOT TAGGED. qa.sh --strict --matrix and the frontage frame remain.

8ac3b18b36 Lane F R22 (v4.0 — THE EPOCH CLOSE): the re-measure, the selector, the release tour, the tag
The blocking gate is CLOSED, and the epoch closes green.

- #1b THE BLOCKING RE-MEASURE: F's R21 re-measure made the tri diet blocking; B diagnosed layer-by-layer,
  the driver traced A -> E (A's own commit: "B's numbers say the fix is E's"), E fixed it, F re-measured:
  katoomba venue_night 221,935 (+11%) -> 108,365 (-51%); bendigo 201k -> 124,682; fremantle -> 88,397.
  Worst 124,682 — the 200k stress edge is closed. The measure-first loop worked end to end.
- #3 DBG.enterShop(selector) (Lane G's ask): id · registry type · exact name · name substring, resolved
  most-specific-first so an id-shaped string can't be shadowed. One-liner QA on any of 23 towns.
- #4 The release tour -> docs/shots/release_v4/: the Fremantle hero · the Fitzroy mecca · the Toowoomba thin
  tail · the synthetic control · the ?classic=1 covenant. Every real-town frame poses through F's R21
  cluster primitive; B's R22 bookmarks anchor on the same retail heart, so tour and bookmarks agree by
  construction. HUD hidden throughout (F's R21 ruling corollary).
  The primitive earned itself twice: the first cut posed via street_noon and the MECCA CAME OUT AS BARE
  BITUMEN — the same trap as R21. Re-posed through the cluster, Fitzroy reads.
- HONEST FINDING (filed v4.x): the brief asked for the thin tail as "proof the floor holds". It does not,
  and the frame says so — Toowoomba reads as an empty road. The floor is a RATIO, not a count: 0.008
  shops/edge vs the heroes' 0.06-0.08. Shipped labelled honestly rather than swapped for a flattering town.
- #6 Docs: README v4 section (the towns ARE the product), LANE_F_NOTES §22, F-progress.

qa.sh --strict --matrix GREEN 7/7; MATRIX GREEN — 10 towns × 7 gates (the budget gate green everywhere for
the first time); selfcheck 161,300/161,300 (A's 36 goldens + the 23-town pack).

201a2bb868 Lane F R21 (v4.0-beta close): the beta gate — tram dimension, the re-measure, the beta shot
All five lanes in (A's venue cluster bias, B's selector-from-index, C's density door-soak, D's relocation
verify PASSES, E's 22-town pack non-gating); F gated and tagged.

- town_matrix.py: a `tram` dimension — B's R20 shop-adjacency ruling verified EXACTLY (newtown runs 16 stops
  after B's phantom-stop fix, castlemaine 10; katoomba/fremantle/bendigo FENCED at 3/2/1 shops fronted, all
  below the 5-shop floor). 10 towns x 7 gates: boot/determ/district/roads/tram/noassets green on all ten.
- index.html: expose window.PROCITY.tram — B built `routeInfo` FOR F's smoke but nothing published it; F owns
  the shell, so F wired the seam.
- RECORDED (ledger #6b — the instruction was "record the new number"): the venue_night re-measure. A's cap
  WORKED (posters 438->111) but E's density widening ate it — katoomba 200,965 (+965, R19) -> 221,935
  (+21,935, +11%); bendigo 201k (+0.5%); fremantle/newtown/castlemaine in budget. Draws fine everywhere
  (151/300 — half budget); tris-only, at the worst night stress view. Filed as R22's first item, where the
  tri-diet backlog (instrument LOD, tram tri diet) already lives. katoomba is the outlier: 966 edges, 72 shops.
- Ruling (ledger #6d): the town selector stays ALWAYS-IN-HUD, not ?dbg-gated — THE REAL MAP's product IS the
  towns. Corollary (F's own gap): money shots hide the HUD; the R19 alpha shot had the selector in-frame
  because F's harness screenshotted the full viewport.
- Beta money shot: Fremantle's real street at golden hour — a corridor of shopfronts, footpaths, a crossing,
  gum trees, and a genuinely busy crowd (the density widening, visible). 126d/167k tris, HUD hidden.
- docs: LANE_F_NOTES §20 (the honest why-R20-had-no-tag record) + §21, README beta paragraph, F-progress.

qa.sh --strict GREEN; selfcheck 154141/154141 (A's re-pinned goldens hold).

ddd1e6827e Lane F R19 (v4.0-alpha close): the alpha gate + roads dimension + the first real-street money shot
A resolved the R18 findings (fragmentation cull/join, poster clamp, goldens pinned) + D verified; F gated.

- town_matrix.py: a `roads` dimension — a schema-v2 cache (roads[]) must build the REAL street graph
  (norm.mode==='roads', read via the plan_osm opts.report sink); synthetic/fixtures stay marched/synthetic.
  10 towns x 6 gates: real roads green everywhere; classic/default proven untouched (roads ride the cache
  schema, not a flag — 0x3fa36874 frozen).
- docs/shots/v4_alpha/katoomba_mainstreet.png: the first real-street money shot — Katoomba's actual main
  street (asphalt + lane markings, footpaths, a pedestrian crossing, a walking crowd, gig posters, B's town
  selector in-frame), PROCITY's look on real bones, 121k tris midday.
- docs: LANE_F_NOTES §18 (why F correctly HELD in R18 — the gate would have failed by design) + §19 (the
  close), README real-roads note, F-progress.

qa.sh --strict --soak GREEN 7/7. One filed NON-blocking finding: katoomba_real venue_night 200,965 tris
(+965 / 0.5% over the soft ceiling, poster-count-scales-with-real-edges driven; midday play is 121k) — a
v4.0-beta hardening item (A caps posters per real town), on the opt-in --matrix warn-gate, not a play view.

9277238462 Lane F R16 (v3.1 THE FLIP) — close: default-boot tour + week soak + docs
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).

b322c998db Lane E R16 (v3.1): the drummer's sit clip — sit.glb produced + published
Ledger #2 asset half (E produces, D wires). Fetched Adobe Mixamo Sitting_Idle.fbx (533KB) by scp
from the tailnet source box, converted on-device via Blender (new pipeline/fbx_to_clip.py: import ->

structurally identical to walk/idle: 66 nodes, 65 mixamorig bones, dangling skin, 195 channels).
Verified: three.js loads + 195/195 tracks bind to peds + 0 NaN; Blender confirms seated (hips
0.955->0.299m, stature 1.276->0.758m) + eyes-on bone-dot render (docs/shots/laneE/sit_clip.png).
Published to depot via tailnet under John's R13 auth (_published.json 38->39; benign non-procity_
drift note). Provenance: Adobe Mixamo royalty-free, same zone as the shipped walk/idle; LANE_E_NOTES
v3.1 amendment marker.

6a35b29352 Lane F R15 (v3.0): the release money-shot tour (ledger #4) + settled measurements (ledger #5)
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.

a358c5d9ef Lane F R13 (v3.0-beta, the district): per-venue gig state + walla/applause + queue wiring; qa --strict 6/6
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.

  reusing the pub machinery via a new per-kind venueSpec (deck size/height + crowd cap).
- layout.js: parametrized placeStage/placeWatchPoints; 4th `drums` pose seated on the riser

- interiors.js: robust gig-<genreKey> resolution (gig.genreKey -> shop.genreKey -> kind
  default) matching E's renamed manifest beds (debt #1); API doc for the 4-piece + riserY.
- LANE_C_PUB.md: 3-kind venue contract + pinned ry convention and the empirically-verified
  keeper/browser back-to-front finding + source-normalise fix for Lane D (debt #4).

Verified fresh (seed 20261990 + 90-build soak): watch caps 8/8/12, gigKeys
gig-pubrock/gig-grunge/gig-covers, determinism 0, path/carve 0, gig-night worst RSL 237 draws
asset-free (16 rigs) / 77 GLB <=350, leak geo0/tex0. Shot: docs/shots/laneC/rsl_gig_r13.jpg.

bf98b41b16 Lane E R13 (v3.0-beta): gigKey rename + grunge/covers beds + instrument decimation
- debt #1: the manifest music key IS the gigKey, always gig-<genreKey>. Renamed
  pubrock-live -> gig-pubrock (files + gen_audio + build_manifest); old files deleted.
  B/F switch readers, F deletes the GIG_BED bridge (both fail soft to silence til then).
- two new gig beds: gig-grunge (band_room, quiet-loud dynamic) + gig-covers (RSL, mellow
  organ-led); procedural/seeded/loopable/$0. New organ() + grungechord() synth helpers.
- decimate the 5 instrument GLBs to 14k tris each (was 43-96k; fleet 236k->70k, -70%) via
  collapse (thin features survive); _hi hi-poly originals kept for depot; thumbs re-rendered.
- manifest regen (validates 0/0 incl --depot); app boots clean flags-off / ?gigs=1 (3-venue
  district, all 3 beds resolve) / ?noassets=1&gigs=1 (0 audio+GLB fetches).
- depot re-publish (14k bytes + _hi originals) gated on John's OK.

2498fdc892 Lane F R12: wire the v3.0-alpha gig layer (?gigs=1) — state machine, cover charge, band+crowd, gig audio
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.

888335d633 Lane D round 12: gig band + crowd + patronage surge (?gigs=1)
v3.0-alpha — Friday night at the pub. New web/js/citizens/band.js (GigCrew):
- Band trio on C's stage.bandPoses (deckY), distinct fleet peds (seeded per gig), each with a
  primitive instrument on the chest (guitar/mic/bass; E's GLBs drop in via opts.instrumentFor).
- Crowd (<=8) at C's watchPoints on the gate-protected spawnRig path: dance:false = weight-shift
  idle, dance:true = bounce/sway/step with seeded phase (no metronome).
- Deterministic from citySeed; placeholder crew under ?noassets.

sim.js: setGig(venueShopId, on) gig-night surge — patronage pulls peds from further (GIG_RANGE)
and ducks in harder (GIG_SURGE) at the venue; occupants drain at close per A's closing-time ruling.
Guarded by _gigVenue==null so gig-off is byte-identical (prime flag law; goldens unmoved).

Verified standalone (A withGigs + C buildInterior + D): band 3, crowd 8, dancing 3, all 11 figures
human-sized (1.60-1.83m under a 4.0m ceiling; R10 no-giants holds), band faces audience + crowd
faces stage, deterministic, leak-free (8 cycles, 0 delta). Crew ~40 draws. Surge: venue occupancy
1 -> peak 5, identity stable. Shot: docs/shots/laneD/r12_gig_night.jpg.

Flag for C/F: band.js flips C's watchPoints/bandPoses ry by pi (RY_FLIP) — the fleet mesh's visual
front is local +Z, not the -Z the comments assume. Remove RY_FLIP if C re-fronts the gig poses.

9b1c54ea81 Lane F R10: verify giant-rig fix + re-shoot tour + re-frame night_crowd
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).

3432fccd1f Lane D round 10: fix interior giant rigs + no-giants QA gate
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.

Follow a ped into a shop and find them browsing. D owns occupancy truth; C owns browse points;
F wires the handoff. Validated end-to-end in-shell (?stock=real). qa --strict GREEN; v1 untouched.

Occupancy (D1): patronage records who's inside which shop by shopId. New
citizens.occupancyOf(shopId) -> {count, occupants:[{seed,enteredAt,pedIndex}]} (pedIndex = the
exact ped who ducked in, for identity continuity). Cleaned on emerge/chunk-drop/stream-toggle.
Deterministic: 17 shops + occupants byte-equal across two runs (fixed a stale-occupancy leak on
stream toggle).

Browsers: keepers.js gained browse:true (faces the shelf via ry, no player-greet) + pedIndex +
seedKey. Each = a merged ped ~1 draw. 12 enter/exit cycles: count == min(occupancy,3) 12/12,
worst 61 draws <=350 (C's headroom holds), leak-free (0 GPU delta after warmup), disposed every
exit via keepers.disposeAll().

Consistency (D2): inside peds hidden on the street (0 rendered), re-emerge at the door.

F handoff verified by running F's exact interior_mode wiring (enter -> occupancyOf ->
browsePoints.slice(0,min(count,3)) -> keepers.spawn). index.html setShops door points need
shopId:s.id added. Closing-time handled by the dwell model (pending A's explicit ruling).

Book/toy shelves get pull-and-buy over the SAME wallet; records keep the
deep dig. New stockpack.buildBuyableShelf(): a real shelf is merged,
per-item-ADDRESSABLE meshes — one per atlas (all covers drawn from one
seeded atlas → one draw/shelf), tagged noBatch so batch.js leaves them

collapseBuyItem() zero-areas the item's quad in place (removed from the
shelf, no geometry churn). Parody stock → no buy mesh → no card. Fail-

1. Selfcheck PARITY: extracted structuralSuite(plan,label) and run the FULL invariant suite
   on every (source, town) — synthetic + both OSM towns get identical coverage (storeys,
   one-shop-per-lot, facing, within/cross-block overlap, corridor coverage, determinism,
   exactly-one-openLate). ALL GREEN 1727/1727 (was 1362; OSM went subset → full ×2 towns).
2. SECOND TOWN: Katoomba (Blue Mountains, 19 shops, op-shop/book heavy) — regional contrast
   to inner-Melbourne. osm_fixture.js → OSM_TOWNS{melbourne,katoomba}+DEFAULT_TOWN;
   generatePlanFor(seed, source, {town}); ?plansrc=osm&town=katoomba. Golden 0x0f652510.
   Melbourne 0x34cfdec0 + synthetic 0x3fa36874 UNCHANGED (town key kept off the plan).
3. "Add a town" recipe in LANE_A_NOTES (R8): extract → OSM_TOWNS → pin golden → tell F.
4. Normalization + LOG: importer bends real data to the contracts (unknown kind→opshop,
   hours-clamp so only one shop is openLate, video-preferred landmark w/ fallback) and logs
   it via {report}; selfcheck prints per-town (e.g. melbourne hoursClamped:5, openLate:video).

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

The stockAdapter seam built in v1 finally eats. Lane E's stock pack (parody-
transformed Discogs metadata + cover atlas) feeds record-shop bins + the dig
riffle behind ?stock=real. Economy stays a stub (buying = toast).

- Contract handshake (task 1, unblocked E): confirmed E's index schema as-is
  in LANE_C_NOTES (items[{id,title,artist,price,price_band,atlas,uv}]; uv
  origin top-left, C flips V for WebGL; fail-soft; per-type packs).
- stockpack.js (new): preloadStockPack/getStockPack (cached) + makeStockAdapter.
  Atlas texture + material are shared/cached (like depot GLBs); each sleeve is
  a cover PLANE sampling the atlas at its baked UV, so all real sleeves in a
  room batch to ONE draw (record: 59 draws).
- stock.js binFan: real cover planes (else parody canvas). dig.js: riffles real
  covers, pull card shows title/artist/$price/band. interiors.js: opts.stock=
  'real' wires the adapter (warn-once + parody fallback if pack absent). Test
  page reads ?stock=real, preloads record/book/toy, passes the adapter to the dig.

Validated (E's staged 24-sample; real covers drop in unchanged when E gets the
DB): determinism 0/30, leak-free rooms + real dig (0/0 over 25 cycles), draws
<=139 all rooms (record 59), fail-soft on no-pack types, ?dig=1&stock=real

- layout.js: fixed placeNearCounter — it picked one random side and gave up,
  so counter-zone fittings (the glass case) rarely landed. Now it tries both
  sides + offsets, then falls back to a free aisle spot, so a min>=1 fitting
  reliably lands.

7131f530a4 Lane C R5 C2: crate-riffle dig behind ?dig=1 (v2)
Ported 90sDJsim/web/world/dig.js → web/js/interiors/dig.js. Walk to a record
bin, press E, riffle its sleeves (scroll/drag), click the front sleeve to pull
it, BUY IT. Faithful to the source: hinge-forward riffle, pull-and-inspect
panel, procedural fwip/thunk audio.

- Riffle items = seeded procedural sleeves per bin via the stockAdapter(shop,
  'sleeve') seam (parody 90s-AU records now; real GODVERSE records feed the
  same seam in round 6+). Same bin ⇒ same order.
- Buy is STUBBED (toast + remove-from-bin; getCash returns a constant) —
  economy is round 6+ per integrator decision #1.
- Own scene + camera; leak-free: per-open GPU resources (sleeve textures/
  materials, crate parts) freed on every close(), persistent set freed on
  dispose(). Dig soak (20× enter/leave) → leakGeo 0 / leakTex 0.
- Flag-gated (?dig=1): buildInterior is UNTOUCHED, so ?dig=0 boot is
  byte-identical to v1 (prime law). The dig is wired only in the test page via
  an E-key raycast; F owns the shell input/mode seam — hook documented in
  docs/LANES/LANE_C_NOTES.md.

Verified: riffle + pull + buy-stub work; dig soak leak-free; placement
determinism unaffected; close returns to the interior. qa.sh --strict GREEN.

93a3168a99 Lane D round-5: chunk-streamed roster (v2) behind ?roster=stream
Implements the R3 design note (was design-only). Default-off; the v1 whole-graph path is
byte-identical when the flag is off (shell citizen-0 signature matches the R4 golden exactly).

- chunk-local identity keyed (seed, chunkKey, i) — same seed + chunk -> same residents,
  independent of town size / visit order; home edge picked from that chunk's edges.
- windowed spawn/despawn: hook-driven via Lane B's onChunkBuilt/onChunkDisposed (sim auto-
  detects and stops polling) + a camera-poll fallback that needs zero Lane B changes.
- global near-cap + mixer stagger + rig pool + impostor layer unchanged, run across live chunks.
- owner-chunk despawn (no cross-boundary re-keying); per-chunk time-of-day thinning (hours-aware).

Proven on a 9x9 fixture grid: constant far-field density (~58-129 within 70m at spawn AND 150m
out, vs v1's uniform ~12-15); deterministic (507 chunk-keyed identities re-derive from seed);
leak-free (2 full grid walks / ~380 chunk cycles -> 0 geom/tex delta, pool capped 30); budget
unchanged (near-cap 24 + 1 impostor draw, 2.31ms/frame). qa.sh --strict GREEN.

Only web/js/citizens/sim.js + web/citizens_test.html changed. Flag + shell call-site documented
in LANE_D_NOTES for Lane F to wire web/index.html.

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_*.

aa9c140eca Lane C R5 C1: v1.1 re-map — record_crate (fixed) + counter_till
Round-5 §Lane C task 1 (the v1.1 gate). Map Lane E's R4-late re-exports in
glb.js:

- record_crate FIXED (E stripped sourceless AO/roughness slots) → crate/
  recordBin upgrade to plastic crates with the procedural sleeves inside;
  removed the stale "fails to load" comment.
- counter → 'counter_till' (the real ~1.6m timber counter WITH a modelled
  till; NOT the 4m balcao). Footprint-fit + floor-plant + keeper-stand pose
  unchanged.
- Double-till resolved (documented): counter_till carries its own till, so
  the separate cash_register attach is dropped whenever the counter GLB is
  live (falls back to cash_register on the primitive counter otherwise);
  milkshake_mixer stays on the milk-bar bench, lifted +0.10m onto the taller
  GLB counter.

Validated (GLB on, via depot): sweep+soak {throws 0, path 0, det 0, worst
10.4ms}, 0 rooms with a visible primitive till, leak-free vs a saturated
baseline (the transient 2geo/4tex first-sight is record_crate + counter_till
cache-fill). Primitive path byte-unchanged (glb.js-only edit). qa.sh --strict

2698b402d1 Lane F R4 finalize: gate table all-6-green + v1 tour shots + interior-shot fix
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
mode), so both showed streets. Now they show the themed interiors with keeper + hero props.

Verified by a 6-auditor adversarial v1-readiness workflow -> GO.

6323d58736 Lane B round-4: closed facades (§3.5) + shot poses/letterbox + furniture GLB + novelty_record

  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

a5e4b64a9d Lane D round-4: in-shell verify (D1) + decimated-ped validation (D2) + impostor tone-map fix (D3)
D1: peds+keepers upgrade placeholder->rig in the shell; 12 enter/exit shops leak-free
(renderer.info.memory back to exact baseline); determinism holds across reload; ?noassets
fully placeholder with zero ped fetches.

D2 (gate-3 critical path): validated Lane E's decimated fleet — all 19 peds <=3k tris
(1564-2805, avg 2450), rigs bind+animate (skinning/skeleton preserved), 0 broken meshes under
eviction churn, silhouettes+identity intact, atlas bakes clean. Near fleet ~59.6k tris at the
24-cap (was ~1.2M) — F clear to re-measure gate 3.

D3: fixed a real bug found only in-shell — the impostor self-tone-mapped (toneMapped:false +
in-shader ACES), correct on the direct-canvas test page but DOUBLE-tone-mapped under the shell's
EffectComposer/OutputPass. Reworked to a standard toneMapped:true material outputting linear via
three's own tonemapping/colorspace chunks, so it matches the near rigs on both render paths.
setExposure is now a no-op (exposure is global). Verified noon+night in-shell.

34926324bd Lane C R4: hero props into rooms (arcade/booth/fridge/mixer/register)
Round-4 §Lane C — map the 4 new hero props + cash_register (manifest now
14 fittings), validate, measure, clean up.

- glb.js: map listening_booth→listeningCorner (record), drinks_fridge→fridge
  (milkbar), arcade_cabinet→new arcadeCabinet primitive (video focal prop).
  New attachCounterTop() places cash_register on every counter's till slot
  (hides the primitive till) + milkshake_mixer on the milk-bar benchtop;
  counter primitive + keeper stand untouched. All yaw 0 (no correction).
- fittings.js: new arcadeCabinet primitive (footprint/height matched to the
  GLB); counter exposes counterTop attach points + tags the primitive till.
- theme.js: arcadeCabinet in the video recipe; the 3 focal props (arcade,
  listeningCorner already, +) raised to priority 6 + placed first so the
  door-counter path loop can't pull them → 24/24 appearance.
- interiors.js: thread recipe.key to upgradeRoom (gates milkshake_mixer to
  milk bars).
- interior_test.html: load GLBs via the live depot: path (drop the deleted
  _local_glb localBase shim; ?localdepot=1 still works offline).

Validated (all via live depot): primitive sweep 810 {throws 0, pathFail 0,
detFail 0}; GLB-on soak {throws 0, path 0, det 0, leakGeo 0, leakTex 0,
worst 7.3ms}; all 5 new props render planted/scaled/facing right (contact
sheet docs/shots/laneC/glb_heroprops_r4.jpg). Room tris measured: milk-bar
GLB-on ~468k (drinks_fridge 77k + milkshake_mixer 73k) — reported to Lane E
as the #1 bake-pass target (not fixed, per integrator decision #2; interiors
render one-at-a-time so gate 3 is unaffected). record_crate still broken +
counter still oversized — both await Lane E re-export (C task 5). Deleted the
stale web/assets/_local_glb/ validation copy. qa.sh --strict GREEN.

53f472d0d7 Lane F R3: hours/closed-shops + manifest/rig-fleet/?noassets + --depot + QA harness fixes
§3.5 hours: isOpen() gates enterShop — closed shops locked; at night only the openLate video
rental opens. §3.4: ?noassets (zero-network primitive path, verified via Performance API),
interior fitting GLB upgrades from the 3GOD depot (useGLB), and the rig-fleet upgrade
(models/peds/*.glb) so peds + keepers become shared GLB rigs, leak-free (shared loadGLB cache
proven, not a leak). qa.sh manifest gate now --depot (16 GLBs live) — GREEN 4/4.

Browser QA harness fixes so shots.py/soak.py actually run: DBG async-poll (was racing the async
install), plan via window.PROCITY (DBG.plan unexposed), enterShop bare-id, shop.lot is a lot id,
midday pin (§3.5 else closes shops mid-walk), GLB-cache warmup, budget peaks -> warnings (gate 3
clean pass is authoritative). Gate 2 soak PASS both asset modes; gate 4 asset-free PASS;
docs/shots/v1_tour/ (10 shots) + contact sheet captured.

Findings (LANE_F_NOTES §9): D/E decimate tri-heavy ped GLBs (gate 3 tris ~279k > 200k budget;
draws fine ~200/300). B: add 3 shots bookmark poses, fix headless composer letterbox in
DBG.shot(), render the §3.5 closed-facade visual (predicate window.PROCITY.isOpen).
