PROCITY — Round 36 instructions (from Fable, integrator)

Date: 2026-07-23 · R32–R35 closed green in other sessions (THE BIBLE · scarcity · THE HUNT · travel · GODBAY · the first five minutes · the tour). R35's close law stands: the tag waits for hands. Round 36 is the v7.0 CLOSE: Fable plays the whole loop, the out-of-round assets get regularized, the full gate runs over the final tree, docs freeze, tag v7.0.

WAVE 0 — THE PLAYTEST (Fable, in person, FRESH SAVE)

The R31 precedent, now over every v7 system: fresh save → the first-five-minutes beats → spot a gem via the BIBLE's guide stamps → ☆ WANT an artist → the keeper's rumor → TRAVEL (and pay the day) → ⚖ LIST a find on GodBay → sleep → the morning paper → the hammer. Deliverable: the friction list, split alpha-blocking vs v7.x queue. R31's lesson stands armed: the playtest boots NAKED (no flags beyond dbg) — the explicit-flag blindfold is the enemy.

WAVE 1 — regularize the 2 a.m. commits (E)

046668e + b339402 landed outside the round system (July 20, disciplined but unswept): 4 dance-clip GLBs + 3 trellis DJ bodies in web/models/peds/. E: provenance table entries

• licence lines for all 7 (dance clips = the 90sDJsim Mixamo-family bank — verify and record the zone; DJ bodies = on-device trellis, CC0-equiv, the instrument discipline); depot publish per standing practice; the validator sees them. The commits verified "page boots" only — the full-suite proof is wave 2's.

WAVE 2 — the gate, the freeze, the tag (F)

1. Any wave-0 alpha-blockers first (micro-fix agents per owner if not F's).
2. Full qa.sh --strict --matrix over the final tree — explicitly including: the 3 DJ bodies through the figure-scale gate (they joined the roster ungated), the dance clips through classic zero-fetch + ?noassets fallback (the commit claims it; the gate proves it), and the R32–35 smokes (bible, scarcity, hunt, godbay) re-green on the final tree.
3. Docs freeze: README v7 section (the loop, the manual rows for WANT/LIST/paper), notes §36, the charters' retired-or-carried (A's v4-style list for the V7 charter risk section — F may write it this once, single-lane round).
4. Tag v7.0 (annotated: the loop's numbers + both playtest verdicts), push main + tag.

Then: Fable writes the v7 epoch retro, and the menu reopens

(v6 footage-spikes · the beta/v7.x queue incl. John's own playtest findings whenever he walks it · the frontier shelf: terrain, vernacular kit, civic layer, THE BIBLE polish.)

WAVE 2.5 (Fable ruling on F's held warn): CLASSIC KEEPS ITS PEOPLE

F's smoke_djdance caught the July-20 commit adding the 5 DJ bodies to PED_NAMES UNCONDITIONALLY — they fetch under ?classic=1 and widened classic's seeded crowd pool 17→22. Every covenant gate stayed green (the covenant pins the plan; the roster was never pinned), but the classic fetch surface and crowd identity moved without a ruling. RULED: option (b) — the five gate OUT of classic's pool, mirroring the clips' !CLASSIC pattern. The covenant's meaning stays crisp: ?classic=1 is the v2 town INCLUDING ITS PEOPLE; the DJs walk every other boot. D lands the line; F re-verifies (classic fetch surface + pool 17 + smoke_djdance green, strict re-run) and RE-LAYS the tag on the true final commit. The warn was the system working — a covenanted surface cannot move quietly even when every pinned number stays green.

ROUND CLOSED (Fable) — v7.0 TAGGED on 4709cfe, all green, everything measured twice

Run 3 on the healed box: qa 7/0/0/0 · MATRIX 10 towns · flags harness 0 fails / 0 warns (the §36.4 hold flipped to "✓ classic: zero DJ-body fetches" under the full suite) · classic 0x5f76e76 · the five DJs human-sized by name · Rokoko binds 64/65 · rotation byte-identical per day and across boots. The honest record stands in §36.5: re-gate runs 1–2 died to a BOX-level fork famine (m3panel's 2.5-day pmset|tail leak — fixed at source mid-round, the party.monster.reaper janitor installed as standing fleet infra) — starvation artifacts, not gates. The hold's full arc: held by machine-recorded WARN → ruled (classic keeps its people) → fixed by the owning lane alone → re-proven by the gate that held it. Nothing improvised.

Waves: [Fable plays] → [E] → [F fix+gate+tag] → [D classic-gate + F re-lay] → [retro]
