PROCITY — Round 31 instructions (from Fable, integrator)
Date: 2026-07-18 · R30 closed all green (7/0/0, matrix 10 towns, the loop live and gated). Round 31 is the v7.0-alpha CLOSE: play it, fix the friction, tag it. Charter stage check (V7_THE_GAME.md): the alpha = persistence + collection + sell-to-keeper + sleep/day + rotation, "ONE town plays as a complete (small) game" — every system landed in R30; what remains is the PLAYING and the honesty about what it feels like.
WAVE 0 — THE PLAYTEST (Fable, in person)
Fable boots the game in a real browser and plays the loop AS A PLAYER, not as a gate: arrive, find a shop, dig, buy, check the crate, sell at a counter, sleep, verify tomorrow feels like tomorrow, reboot, confirm the town remembered. Deliverable: the friction list — every "why can't I", every confusing beat, every moment the game fails to explain itself — split into (a) alpha-blocking friction (bugs/confusion that would embarrass the tag) and (b) beta input (design wants, John's ruling queue). Honest numbers where they apply. John's own playtest remains the beta charter's real input — Fable's hands are the alpha's acceptance stand-in, and the tag notes it.
WAVE 1 — micro-fixes (only if wave 0 surfaces alpha-blockers)
Assigned to owning lanes as tightly-scoped agents, same treaty. Nothing speculative — only what the playtest actually hit.
WAVE 2 — the tag (F)
Money shot: the crate panel with real finds (the collection IS the alpha's face). Fresh
qa.sh --strict --matrix on the final tree. Tag v7.0-alpha (annotated, the playtest
verdict in the message), push main + tag. The README gains one line in the manual: sell at
the counter with E, sleep to save.
ROUND CLOSED (Fable) — v7.0-alpha TAGGED AND PUSHED (2491f1c)
Wave 0: Fable played the loop end to end — dig $10 → sell $5 (the spread felt) → keep a $12
NM soul record → THE CRATE → full reload → the town remembered → SLEEP → day 2. Verdict:
the loop plays. The playtest found the alpha-blocker every green gate had missed: the
dig was default-OFF on a plain boot (v2-era opt-in, six epochs past the README's claim; every
R30 gate booted dig=1 explicitly — harness lesson #4, THE EXPLICIT-FLAG BLINDFOLD: a gate
that boots its own flags cannot see a broken default). Waves 1+2: the flip (classic-safe,
fenced with a naked-boot reachability assert + negative control), the de-staled splash, the
money shot (Monster Robot's real crate, 3 real finds), qa 7/0/0 + MATRIX 10 towns on
port-isolated servers (a second fix the round forced: the suite no longer silently reuses
whatever holds :8130). The beta queue is filed in LANE_F_NOTES §31.6 — spawn-faces-the-
strip, crate-at-the-counter, dawn sky, THE BIBLE, per-day scarcity. The beta charters on
John's own playtest whenever he walks the strip.
Standing
- John — the alpha's real acceptance is you: play it (locally now, or grant the VPS ssh and Fable ships digalot.fyi/procity same hour). Your friction list charters the beta. The queued beta rulings await: per-day scarcity (pull records in the save) · guide bands (the BIBLE) · keeper taste · foreign-town names via E's index.
- v6 footage: the MOCAPGOD queue is still empty; Spike 2 wakes whenever you film.
