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.

GUTS — a fantastic voyage through the alimentary canal
Browser flight-combat game (three.js, zero build step). You pilot ENDO-1, a microscopic probe, mouth → rectum through five anatomically-grounded biomes: ride peristalsis down the esophagus, cross the acid sea of the stomach, thread the villi forest of the small intestine, survive the gas swamps of the colon. Fantastic Voyage × Star Fox × Descent.

Run it
cd web && python3 -m http.server 8140
# http://localhost:8140 — the game
# http://localhost:8140/?stub=1&dbg=1 — stub world + debug HUD (works from day 0)
No bundler, no npm, no build. ES modules + import map; three.js r175 vendored in web/vendor/
(never CDN — the game must run offline). Before you finish a session: bash tools/qa.sh.
The one-paragraph tech pitch
The whole canal is a spline. World position is (s, θ, ρ) — distance along the canal,
angle and radius in the cross-section. Tube walls are chunked extrusions along
parallel-transport frames; peristalsis and breathing are vertex-shader displacement
(cheap, squishy, everywhere); collision is an analytic radius test (no physics engine).
Caverns (mouth, stomach) switch the same controller to free 6DOF. Look is synthetic
scanner — dark endoscope void, SEM-style monochrome walls with FLUX-generated detail
textures, emissive-coded enemies. Everything is seeded + deterministic, and every asset is
optional at runtime — the game boots and plays asset-free with procedural fallbacks.
Hard laws (all lanes)
- Determinism. No
Math.randomoutsidejs/core/rng.js. Seeded RNG only. qa.sh greps. - Assets are optional. Missing texture/model/audio ⇒ procedural fallback, never a crash.
- Eyeball everything. Visual work isn't done until a screenshot is in
docs/shots/laneX/. - Perf budget: ≤300 draw calls, 60 fps on M-series / mid laptop. Measure via
window.DBG. - Free-first. Local MODELBEAST generation before any paid API; fal.ai is a gated fallback (John's go). See PIPELINE.md.
- Git: stage only your exact paths, commit + push each session, never
git add ..
Deploy
Target: partly.party (static). Not wired yet — when it's time, consult the deploy-map skill
and run ship-check first. Origin: ssh://git@100.71.119.27:222/monster/guts.git.
