godverse_stock.py splits at THE SNAPSHOT BOUNDARY: `snapshot` (runs where the DBs are; freezes
every source row + every cover's sha256) -> `pack` (pure: snapshot + bytes -> atlas, no DB, no
network). That split is what lets E's validate_atlas gate G's output on m3 without dealgod.
Artifact: web/assets/stock_godverse/3962749/ — crate 550 "DEEP HOUSE", 120 real records, 2
atlases (2048^2, 256px cells, E's contract verbatim). Byte-identical re-bake verified; resolves
through C's untouched stockAdapter (120 items, real titles/prices, one material per atlas =>
one draw); missing atlas -> null -> parody, zero console noise.
THE BRIEF'S PREMISE DIDN'T HOLD (measured): no Newtown record shop has stock in any database
(Egg Records / Papa Disquo / Haze Guitars / Vintage Record / Downtown Music: 0 items each).
dealgod.stores is not a census — 8,754 of 9,285 are Discogs seller accounts, zero Newtown.
thriftgod.item is a demo seed (2,221 items, 29 shops, all Brisbane/Newcastle charity, zero
record shops). mint() cannot produce tier 1: TABLESAMPLE SYSTEM (0.5) + unseeded random.* —
random.seed appears nowhere in server.py — and it assigns other sellers' listings to shops that
never owned them, voiding the licence law's "the stores' own product shots" green and making
write-back meaningless. Not risk #3's fuzzy matching: a population mismatch, nothing to match to.
What we shipped instead is truer: monsterrobot (147 Musgrave Rd, Red Hill, Brisbane — John's
ruling) is one real shop in three datasets — recordgod (its POS: 28,624 live vinyl, 24,914 in
357 real crates with real labels and slot numbers), monsterrobot.party (its own site: the covers
are the SHOP'S OWN product shots), dealgod store 3962749 (the cover cache + the godverse id;
clear of the census space, thriftgod max shop id = 2992). 99.3% of its crate stock joins to a
cached cover by Discogs release_id. Drops counted: 120 of 122 baked, 2 lacked an own photo.
John's R23 rulings recorded: the crate ships as the shop it really is (Red Hill, not Newtown);
real titles/artists at tier 1 — an amendment to the no-real-trademarks law build_stock_pack.py
enforces, same shape as the licence law (in-house green, flagged before anything public).
G3_ECONOMY_DESIGN.md drafts the API surface, async enrichment (the dig never blocks), failure
modes, identity, the PII fence (recordgod holds real customer/staff/sales — pipeline reads only
inventory/crate/disc_cache), and frames the write-back question for John (§7) against a real
trading shop with Square sync and an existing hold_expires_at primitive. No default, per law #4.
Asks in G-progress (both outside G's namespace, both gate the crate reaching a room): per-shop
packs aren't wired (stockpack.js caches by type alone — confirmed live: a base override is
silently ignored, so two stocked shops collide; C owns the wording, G re-emits), and redhill_real
doesn't exist (needs E's build_towns.py + one Overpass fetch; G touched neither).
