[lane E] The instrument exists: a HUD, and a surgical team who talk to you
#ui had been an empty div since round 0 — E never ran. It has an owner now. HUD (charter #1): coat/hull, heat, torpedo pips, speed/flow/throttle, boost, score, combo, biome + segment name, and a progress rail with C's 10 checkpoints ticked. Bus-only — zero imports from B, exactly as the charter asks. player:state and combat:state arrive every frame and ARE the clock, so the HUD cannot tick while the game isn't running. 60fps law: DOM is built once; the hot path is transform + textContent-on-change only. Bars scale (scaleX), they never resize — a width:% write per bar per frame is a layout pass. Torpedo pips rebuild only when ammoMax changes, not when ammo does. COMMS — on nobody's list. Argued for, then built. The GDD says "Star Fox arcade flow" and there was nobody in the game but the player. Three-hander: voss (attending, terse), park (resident, over-excited), adeyemi (immunology, apologetic — and amber, the colour of the cells attacking you; his fault). Deterministic round-robin per trigger key, no RNG. Priority ladder + per-key cooldowns so the crew shuts up during a firefight. It turned out to be more than flavour: it is the tutorialisation channel the GDD asks for and L1 has no other vehicle for. The hazard lines teach what C's HAZARDS registry note says the hazard IS ("ring gate. it opens on a beat — match the beat, do not ram it"). Keys are the real HAZARDS ids, checked against levels/enemies.js rather than guessed — all three L2 kinds get bespoke lines, zero generic fallbacks. A level's worth of dialogue is now a data edit in LINES. Three defects, all mine, all found by the stepped sim, none visible to the eye: - The progress rail was dead. I read `level.length` — a field that does not exist. The level carries segments, not a total. It now uses the runtime world.length that B already divides into p.progress. - My clock was fiction. Comms counted `+= 0.1` per timer tick and called it seconds; a backgrounded tab throttles setTimeout to ~1s, so lines held ~10x too long. It now reads performance.now(). - Every hazard warning had the LOWEST priority in the game. PRI has a key `warn`, but say() is called with `warn_reflux_surge`, so PRI[key] was undefined and fell through to the default of 1 — the surge screaming "GO. GO." could be talked over by park admiring a specimen. Keys now resolve exact-then-family. The evidence shot IS the fix: same seed, same frame, the warning now sits where the checkpoint line used to be. ### -> Lane B — player:state stops emitting the moment you die player.js:103 early-returns before the emit when !st.alive. So `alive` is unobservable (E can only ever read true — the field is currently decorative), and E cannot use player:state as a clock, because it stops exactly when the death UI needs to run and through boot's whole 2.0s respawn window. Comms works around it with its own wall-clock. The death/respawn feed-drop (charter #4) will not be able to. Ask is in NOTES; not patching your file. ### -> Lane F — two contract items I edited boot.js (~10 lines mirroring your own dynamic-import/try-catch/ console.info fallback) because #ui needed an owner and two modules nothing constructs aren't worth much. Ratify or move it. Second: shot_sink.py cannot photograph Lane E — it POSTs renderer.domElement.toDataURL(), and the HUD is a DOM overlay, so the house evidence tool renders it invisible. This shot is a composite (canvas -> 2D canvas, then #ui via an SVG foreignObject). Offer to lift it into pipeline/ as DBG.shotUI() stands. qa GREEN. Evidence: docs/shots/laneE/round2_hud_aortic.webp (s=1111, seed 7, live hazard warn + x6 chain). Dev server guts-e on 8146. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

[lane A] The swept room + the acid sea, built — and it corrected me four times
The shape read in LANE_A_NOTES was written from reading code, so I built it to
find out if it was true. Flyable: web/dev/laneA_world.html?dbg=1&assets=1&lvl=swept
Nothing here is imposed on anyone: every addition is additive and a level that
opts out behaves exactly as today. C can bin the whole proposal and lose nothing.
WHAT THE PROTOTYPE DISPROVED (my own cost estimates, all four):
- "radial resolution must scale with radius" — wrong. 64 segments is a 0.05u
circle error at r=70. The arena needs it because it fbm-displaces; the tube's
wave is smooth in theta. No change made.
- "cap geometry at the span ends" — a thinko. The canal is continuous; a room is
a fat part of it. Only the fundus dome caps, and it stays an icosphere.
- cost — cheaper than feared: 9 draws / 98k tris worst-frame for a radius-70
cathedral vs 8 / 74k for the L2 corridor. No leak over a full sweep.
- "one schema flag" — held. `segments[].mode: "open"` is the entire ask.
THE TWO REAL COSTS, NEITHER PREDICTED:
1. D's `tile[0]` is a COUNT, not a density — only a texel size if radius never
changes. Measured 6.1:1 smear at r=70. The wall now derives the count from
each ring's own arc length (aRadius attr + uThetaSpan); D's authored numbers
keep their exact meaning at their reference radius, no re-authoring. That fix
then laid a seam down the canal (a fractional count can't wrap) -> rounded to
an integer, seam gone. Not a no-op on corridors: L2's hiatus takes 3 repeats
where it took 4, which is the texel size correctly holding still as the pipe
narrows. Eyeballed.
2. MY OWN PINCH GUARD WAS WRONG and would have blocked C. The fixture scored
1.30 and "failed" the >1.5 law; it was never bent. stats() divided the
tightest turn ANYWHERE by the widest radius ANYWHERE — 996 units apart, a
bend in the radius-13 pylorus against the radius of the sea. Locally its
worst point is 6.4. pinchRatio is now min over s of turnRadius(s)/radius(s).
Provably one-directional (global <= local by construction) so nothing that
passed can fail; real levels GAINED headroom: L2 3.32->4.16, L3 1.91->6.99,
L1 2.11->6.06. This mattered — the guard is what backs the round-1 promise
that C never has to think about curvature.
THE ACID SEA (world/acid.js, `level.acid {from,to,height,biome}`):
Flat emissive #c8ff3a, level and NOT tube-following — that's the mechanic. The
best find of the session: `height` is ONE NUMBER that tunes the level. Measured:
-18 -> 0% of the sea floor is dry shallow, -55 -> 14%, -62 -> 48%. So C's "position
IS the resource" falls out of the radius wobble they already author — the mucus
shallows are just "where the wall rises above the waterline", nothing to place —
and rising acid literally drowns them: free escalation, same scalar their event
pump drives. Also disproved my own claim: the centreline stays level (+/-1u over
700u), so shallows come from radius wobble, NOT the canal's bends. C must author
vertical bends deliberately if they want depth by anatomy.
Stated plainly, not papered over: the waterline is prototype quality (the plane
meets faceted rings and the shoreline steps). Acid does not drain the coat —
depthAt(pos) is the hook and the cost is Lane B's call. Nothing drives height but
DBG until C's events do.
qa GREEN incl. the new provenance gate; spline selfcheck green; L2 corridor
re-eyeballed for regression. Rulings requested from F in NOTES §-> Lane F.

[lane F] Mid-round-2 recovery: the glue that makes L2 a game
All round-2 lane sessions were cut off 15:08-15:16 before NOTES/commits; the three prior commits preserve their work verbatim. This commit is the wiring B was cut off inside of, plus the run-state boot owes per ruling #4: - combat/index.js: fiction-id -> archetype resolve via C's getEnemy() (the round's declared ONE blocker), theta-array + spread fan-out for group spawns, hazards + pickups constructed and updated (order: enemies -> weapons -> hazards -> pickups, so a torpedo can neutralize a surge the frame it detonates), pickup score/samples onto the combat:state scoreboard, combat.reset(fromS) for respawn. - flight/player.js: kill/shove/refill — the API B's new modules call; kill ignores iframes by design (boost-dodging through C's lethal acid wall is not a read). Deleted the crestSpeed fallback guard per its own comment — A's law landed. - boot.js: run state. checkpoint crossed -> remembered; death -> 2s -> respawn at it + combat.reset() re-arms hazard timelines (pump deliberately does NOT rewind: no double-spawns, collected stays collected); gate -> level:complete {stats, par} for E's medal card. Exported step(dt) so the stepped-sim harness drives the REAL loop. - ROUND2_INSTRUCTIONS: MID-ROUND STATUS box for the resuming lanes; f-progress entry. Verified (deterministic stepped sim via boot.step, :8140): full L2 run fires all 47 events with ZERO console warns (was: 11 spawn no-ops), all 5 hazard telegraphs, 2400 proximity ticks, 14 pickups collected, finish 157s vs par 180 while surfing 94s of it. Death path: throttle 0.7 into the finale -> killed by acid s=3386 -> respawn at Cardia Approach 2980 -> surge re-arms -> second attempt escapes -> level:complete {deaths: 1}. Survivable AND losable. Evidence: docs/shots/laneF/round2_L2_integrated_full_run.png. qa.sh GREEN. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

[lane F] Round 1 integration + ROUND2 instructions: the game is a game
Wired B's player/combat + event pump, D's assets, C's level pick into boot. Fixed qa ESM gate (node --check no-op, found by B) + added spline selfcheck. TECH: world contract FROZEN v1.1, bus events ratified, colorspace + crest-speed laws (CREST_FACTOR 1.6 — B proved surfing lost to throttle at 1.0). Stub complies. Verified integrated build via 60s stepped sim: 9 draws, 0 errors, 0 asset misses; one known gap (fiction-id spawn resolve) confirmed and assigned as B's top item.

[lane D] Round 1: first texture pack + audio proof, exact-tiling pipeline
Textures (6 walls + normals + wet matcap, $0, ~64s on the m3ultra MPS): - FLUX ignores "seamless tiling" (seam_error 3.7-17.9); a 4-way cosine partition-of-unity blend of the four half-rolls fixes it exactly -> 0.87-1.32 - levels-normalised the pack to one exposure (means were 0.18-0.32); these are detail maps multiplied into a biome tint, so per-prompt exposure read as a broken tint rather than as dark tissue - prompt-kit experiment rejected + recorded: PROCITY's "uniform coverage" clause in the STEM cured centred subjects but flattened the pack; framing words now live only in the two subject prompts that needed them Audio (1 bed + 4 sfx, 4.2s render, 0.61/10MB, ogg+m4a dual-ship): - bed-esophagus 24.000s, loop seam 0.32 (wrap step 3x smaller than inner step) - cascaded lowpass poles: one-pole at 900Hz left 16kHz only ~25dB down = hiss - rewrote the spectrogram sheet (per-clip peak, log freq) — the first one was a saturated rectangle, and evidence you can't read is not evidence assets.js: miss ledger + misses() — Lane A found that a drifted slug falls back procedurally forever with no error. Each distinct miss now announces itself. Also: shot_sink.py (canvas -> docs/shots/laneD, correctly named) and a dev texture viewer that imports the stub world read-only for the eyeball law.

[lane A] Round 1: the canal v0 — spline, streaming tube, scanner wall, arenas
Implements THE WORLD CONTRACT (TECH.md) in web/js/world/; drop-in for the stub. boot.js now runs this on C's L2_esophagus (3600u, hash cefc4f83), zero console errors. - spline.js: centreline + arclength LUTs + parallel-transport frames + radius law + peristalsis phase + project() + hash(). No three.js import, so qa can run its 14-assertion selfcheck headless. - curviness is solved from a curvature budget, not authored as an amplitude: the pinch guard caught the tube folding through itself on a wide+curvy join (turn radius 9.9 vs tube radius 17.2). C can no longer author a pinch. - peristalsis: global OMEGA, k(s) = OMEGA/flow(s), phase K(s) = integral k ds. A crest therefore travels at exactly the local flow speed, so "surf the crest" == "ride the current". Esophagus wave amp 0.9 -> 1.4 (measured): moves wallRho for Lane B. - tube.js: chunked streaming, seams aligned to biome joins, arenas own their s-span. - arena.js: displaced icosphere shells v0 (three's polyhedron detail is 20*(detail+1)^2, not 20*4^detail — 720 tris was far too coarse); fog sized to the room, since biome fog tuned for 100u corridors renders C's 360u acid sea as a black rectangle. - index.js: prefers assets.texture() over get() (get returns raw JSON a shader can't eat), plus an explicit slug map — D's wall_smallint_a vs biome id small_intestine would miss silently forever under the assets-optional law. Measured (C's real L2 + D's real pack, 1920x1080, renderer.info): 8 draws worst frame (budget 150), 74k tris (500k), no geometry leak across a full sweep, <120ms load, pinch ratio 3.32. fps not claimed — the screenshot pane runs tabs hidden, pausing rAF.

[lane B] Round 1: flight controller, cannon, enemy framework on the stub
Flight (js/flight/): tube-mode controller in spline space (s,x,y) — flow-locked forward motion, throttle as a spring-back lean, boost + i-frames, banking chase cam on the parallel-transport frame, arcade wall response (shove + graze damage, never a hard stop). Twin-stick input: WASD/left-stick moves the ship in the disc, mouse/right-stick aims, Shift/Ctrl is throttle. Gamepad supported. Combat (js/combat/): lysozyme cannon (pooled, instanced, heat-limited with hysteresis lockout) + antacid torpedo emitting level:neutralize. Enemy framework with floater/seeker/turret and turn-rate-limited homing darts, spawned from C's level:event. Coat/hull model and the full bus surface E builds against. Measured (deterministic stepper): flow-lock exact (3s at flow 14 -> s=44.0); boost peak 30.8 u/s; heat 4s fire -> 2s lockout; wall slam 13.3 coat at 11.3 u/s with forward speed untouched; 10 combat draws at 55 live enemies (budget <=80); 0.10 ms/frame CPU; 0 leaks over 20 create/dispose cycles. fps NOT claimed — rAF does not run in the automated pane. Evidence: docs/shots/laneB/. Three findings escalated in LANE_B_NOTES: - qa.sh gate #1 is a no-op: node --check silently exits 0 on ESM, so the syntax gate has never checked anything. I shipped a real SyntaxError past a GREEN qa. Fix + verification handed to F. - Surf is structurally broken: the peristalsis wave (13.64 u/s) is slower than the player (19.6 u/s), so level 2's signature mechanic loses to mashing throttle. Not tunable from this lane; escalated to A/F with options. - Custom ShaderMaterials need #include <colorspace_fragment>, else ART_BIBLE's hostile amber reaches the display as rgb(255,26,6). Fixed here; stub/walls inherit it. js/flight/dev.html is a dev harness (boot.js has no player wiring yet); it retires once F pastes the snippet in LANE_B_NOTES.

[lane C] Round 1: schema v1, levels registry + selfcheck + pacing sim, L2 vertical slice
Data spine: - Schema v1 ratified (TECH.md, C-owned). Additive over v0: schema/par/next, segment name, cross-section placement (theta/rho as a FRACTION of safe radius), spread, span, pickup+gate event types, hazard params. STUB_LEVEL synced (that const only, per ROUND1 §Lane C.1) — world.hash() unchanged (1bdf001), geometry provably untouched. - levels/index.js: registry + loader (node+browser, no THREE), real schema selfcheck (qa's --selfcheck hook is now live) and a pacing simulator (--sim). Consumes the other lanes' contracts live rather than restating them: A's biomes.js for ids and wave.amp+breathe, A's SKIN, B's tuning.js hull radius, B's balance.js for scores. - levels/enemies.js (fiction id -> archetype join table), levels/difficulty.js. L2_esophagus — the vertical slice, complete: 3600 units, 7 beats, 47 events, 65 enemies, 10 checkpoints, 3 samples, reflux-surge finale. L1/L3 skeletons (shape only). Anatomy is the level designer: the three real esophageal constrictions are the three setpieces, and all three enemies are real esophageal pathology (bolus chunk, eosinophilic esophagitis, candida esophagitis). Measured (node web/js/levels/index.js --selfcheck|--sim; qa GREEN): - selfcheck 3/3 valid, exit 0. - pressure curve 0.27 -> 2.14 -> 4.35 -> 0.69 -> 4.53 -> 6.35 -> 4.40 (breather/pressure/ spike/breather/pressure/peak/finale). - par 3:30 vs measured 2:47 speedrun / 3:19 par-pace / 4:22 timid; par.score 9000 of a 9400 kill budget (95%), computed from B's scores. - all 10 checkpoint gaps within the <=30s death-cost law (max 28.8s); min clearance 2.73. Two contract collisions found and resolved (LANE_C_NOTES): - Biome ids: authored mouth/pharynx/cardia/pylorus; A's registry has six canonical ids and rejected all four. A is right — biome = look, segments[].name = anatomy. Conformed. - Balance: my first enemies.js restated hp/size/speed/score that B owns in balance.js. Cut to a join table; index.js reads B's scores via scoreFor(). Caught live: A raised esophagus wave.amp 0.9 -> 1.4 mid-session, making the diaphragmatic hiatus unflyable (2.33 vs the 2.5 floor). Widened 6.5 -> 6.8. The invariant also failed my own aortic constriction's first draft (radius 7, symmetric squeeze) -> radius 9, directional. No in-engine flythrough: ?stub=1&lvl= does not compose (snippet offered to F) and the stub is single-segment, so it could only render beat 1. The pacing evidence is a kinematic model, not a playtest — it proves L2 is flyable, paced and survivable, not that it feels good. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> |
