ShipSchemaPinTests reads each factions/*.scad maker literal against its Faction
record key in GameData/Aetheria.cc. test_ship_cc pins that Manufacturer keys are
not case folded and that a bare string product body is refused, not read as a
maker. hardpoint-sizes-prior-art.md no longer describes the deleted derivation.

Generator rules read from the band law's reach (Roche margin, cusp bound, window ending
before the parent's fade, sibling spacing, capacity folding into the parent), applied as a
re-placement of today's zones; basin metrics for ruling wells-read-as-nested-basins (cusp,
blob, nesting, saddle curvature, dead ground, steep share, lanes) and a numpy port of
IsolinesUI.shader rendering four zones per candidate. Stable series branch for the band
potential when the softening is comparable to the band (tau > 1).

Each node pulls exactly as its body inside its outermost child, exactly as one body
of its family's mass beyond its own support, and nothing beyond its reach; the root
has no reach, so the zone's far field is exactly c(M_zone) however the generator
splits it. C4 on every band edge, closed-form potential (grid = K phi), Plummer core.
Probe against today, a2, c2, b1 and the tapered draft: ratio, funnel, 12-18 u/s,
far field, split invariance, whole-zone depth, and evaluation cost.

Eyes pass eyes-ag3-smooth-wells (aetheria-gravity, self-2026-10-15-ag3). Extends
gravity-tail-taming: smoothness class per law, measured A&S K0/K1/E1 seam jumps,
log-ratio, screened Plummer, Lamb-Oseen (with and without halo), Plummer log and
conserving-halo families on the same probe, plus zone far-field against merged mass.

Eyes pass eyes-ag3-tail-taming, session self-2026-10-15-ag3. Facts file plus
numpy probe over the orbit-probe bodies: enclosed/parent speed ratio by child
class, mid-zone inward pull, planets round a median sun, HLSL cost per well.

Eyes facts for aetheria-gravity: regular and twisted alternating polygon
equilibria (log closed form, Newtonian sources), linear stability
(Muscas-Pasca-Stoica log thresholds reproduced, Klemperer, Thomson),
the soft core's reach, PeriodAround's ring rule against the twisted
equilibrium spin, and rotating-frame stationary points against the drawn
potential. Solver scripts beside the note.

Imagination probe of the operator's sketch: the bodies as Voronoi sites, the distance metric varied
(power, additive, multiplicative, equal potential, flow-stretched, Minkowski), the lattice web pulled
toward the edges. Images, logs and scripts in docs/research/2026-10-14-body-voronoi-probe/.

Applies rulings habitat-trophic-dag and voronoi-primitive and the operator's
correction that CultMath owns shader/C# parity. The target's Placement law
becomes a layered, donor-controlled DAG (environment, the Skein, producers,
grazers, predators and ambushers) with pointwise and stencil operators only,
nodes in CultMath and compositions in Aetheria; invariants trophic-dag-acyclic,
-pointwise, trophic-nodes-in-cultmath and skein-gate-continuous are added. The
map gains r4 body facts B28-B36 (CultMath's node and parity surface, the tape,
the probe), decisions, two questions and the r4 cut sequence. The probe renders
filament candidates and trophic layers on the orbiting B20 zone and measures
popping and turnover.

Moves the closed-form habitat probe scripts and the images each habitat
question option names into docs/research/2026-10-14-fauna-habitat-probe/,
points the map there, and adds the option renders under the spec's law and
the probe that shows the convergence lattice is FlowField's own structure.

Imagination pass (imagination-aeth-fauna, self-2026-10-13-ag2). Target: fauna are
simulated props seen through the one gain rule, each class with a legible motion
law (ruling disguise-held-by-flying). Map: body facts B1-B14 with a cost probe on
Yggdrasil, nine draft questions, first cut fauna-krill-swarms as a draft spec,
later cuts one line each. Docs only.

The committed font is not rebuilt yet, so test_fe0f_twins.py's first test is red against it; the font lands next. Builds nothing in Unity.

Map R2/R3 rewritten after Soul failed paint-modes h1: the pinging sensor
keeps a per-ping reached set and posts PingReturn to allies through the
zone inbox; ally credit gated by the bistatic oval (R_t * R_r < range^2).
Research section 7: bistatic radar, cooperative engagement, game gaps.
Serves cut_spec paint-modes r3.

Map: hull layout and aim point (V15, V16), model rows for layout, located
item and the scan, rules R8-R11, and cuts layout-aim and inspection-scanner,
for ruling quiet-gear-identifiable-hull-layout-known. Research section 6:
game scanners and identification of non-emitting equipment, serving
questions scanner-reveals-its-user and scanner-held-or-pulse.

Eyes pass for the operator's lock and visibility rethink: how Aetheria
represents visibility today, LOBL/LOAL and loitering munitions, warning
receivers, provocation, graded contacts in games, and the novella passages.

Serves follow-ups vectored-thruster-rows and gimballed-thrusters: virtual
actuators, nonlinear and cascaded allocation, rate and gimbal limits as
per-tick bounds, the zero-thrust singularity, games, shared-angle rows.

Eyes pass before the hull shader fork: DECALmachine 2.17 export paths,
forward-renderer decal practice, parallax for panel lines, layered wear
on the built-in pipeline, and this project's rendering constraints.
