d415101fa1 Njordr: engine and shell, seeded single-player mode
The engine is a pure deterministic step function over a state document and
an exogenous event stream it cannot attribute; the shell is the daemon.
Single-player Aetheria hands over the engine state and an event script,
never precalculated prices, so player choices stay live against the story.

b1167cce67 Njordr: shipments, two consumer profiles, dimensions settled
Economic flow is materialized as shipments a player can meet. Aetheria's
interspersed profile adds materialization, interception against a revision,
and per-zone cadence; Delvehold keeps the boundary profile. One ledger, one
quote function; only the subscription grain differs.

6133461d8e Spec the GameCult economy daemon
Dimensions, materials, lots with provenance, recipes as roles, products as
property vectors; markets as Ghostlight mirrors; prices as a pure function
of committed state; both directions through the consumer contract. The
economy owner is the consumer that owns a world's market mirrors.

855727f8a4 Take a turn's address as its spans in prose order
The Interpreter was citing correctly and the fold was discarding: an
utterance split by narration lost its second half and a turn's second
visible act became an ambiguity gap. Every span cited for a kind now joins
that kind's one statement in prose order; only an overlapping span is an
ambiguity. NarrativeCapture carries the spans, the invocation still carries
one utterance and one display. controller_work.v15.

0582321e2c Let a person be seen: nonverbal display by quote
An invocation may carry a display, the actor's own visible sentence, beside
or instead of its utterance. The kernel lowers it as speech's twin: an
AssertClaim and a Display whose room is re-derived at apply, landing
Seen { by } on everyone standing in the actor's place and on nobody else,
never over a channel. A speech-carrying entry given a display alone is an
address, not SpeechRequired; an empty display is EmptyDisplay; a placeless
actor has no room. The Interpreter gains a display tool quoting the visible
clause alone; the narrative capture carries both spans; the fold allows one
of each. Overheard rows and Projector knowledge rows say how a thing was
perceived: said by, seen doing, or known. The journal's event-shape rule
counts both lowerings. Kernel-only lowering: no patch tool, catalog stays
thirty. Schemas: world_state.consumer.v4, world_commit.consumer.v4,
controller_work.v14. Six tests pin the room, the silence, the refusals,
replay, the fold, and the interruption block.

d4d7bc3c07 Give a world its brief: authored once, guidance on every lane
world_create.v3 carries a required brief, trimmed at ingress, stored on the
state and its snapshot, and projected as the guidance of the Projector,
Persona, Interpreter, operational, and grouped lanes and both authoring
prompts. The two narrative stages that rebuild prompts on resume carry it
(controller_work.v13). The smoke titles its world by the seed root label and
hands its brief to the world rather than to each seed session, so a vow can
no longer name a test fixture.

c31f25415a Let the seed author meaning: persona material, commitment statements, presence
Plan step 12. PersonaMaterial is the ontology's thirteenth row, built:
values, voice, memories, and reads keyed by subject, set whole by
set_persona_material, refused for padded text or a doubled read, no-op when
identical, outside every scope digest. A commitment carries a statement of
what is promised, required at authoring; an affordance-made promise states
the action it came through. The Projector context carries material by label,
each promise's statement, and who else stands in the same place; the
Persona's identity is label, voice, and values. Schemas move to consumer.v3.

936aa71b8d Continue the conversation on refusal, and give the claude lane its descriptions
The first SDK-backed seeded runs. Run 1 refused both seed sessions: the
sidecar's schema conversion dropped every field description, `due` was an
undescribed integer against a clock the model never saw, and the subject
tool did not say a grant is required. Run 2 seeded six people in one round
and ticked three times.

A refusal used to reopen the session with an empty draft and a prompt that
named sites from a draft the model could no longer see. It now continues
the same conversation: `Refusal { after_round, mismatches }` on both
authoring checkpoints (controller_work.v12), the refusal as the next user
turn, and the draft rebuilt by one DraftFold shared by evaluator and oracle
from the calls after it. The harness takes the connector only when its
address is set, so an all-claude run needs none.

79206dfce7 Carry the road's rules from the seeded live smoke
The seeded smoke passed on the twelfth run: six persons authored into
Low Sere from the Kalsa vault in one round, the deficit to zero, nine
subjects and six boundaries at activation, eight cells per tick, the
seeded people speaking to each other. Each earlier failure became a rule
in the tree: strict function schemas (anyOf, typed tags) with an offline
totality test over both authoring lanes; a content-addressed provider
request identity so repair rounds do not collide with the connector's
replay record; the connector's expiry skew separated from the response
read timeout; the seed lane's own round budget with parallel tool calls
and a budget-end submit; canonical ids and the placement rule in the
brief; the commitment shape rule in its tool description; inference
faults and cell outcomes logged where the operator can read them; and a
harness that fails on an empty seed or a silent world.

4ae1d6181d Restore the scale target as design, not load fixture
The operator's design is detail first, then a ten-percent choke: generate
goal-bearing actors at every level, then budget cells so attention is scarce
and selection is forced. The mvp doc's teardown-era sentence calling the
2,400-subject profile "test data, not a production elaboration target"
contradicted that and is amended. The ontology now carries an authored
WorldScaleIntent with a structurally counted deficit that elaborators pursue
after boundaries, a budgeted connected cover every tick with singleton detail
cells and grouped coarse cells, partitioned views and per-constituent
attribution in groups, and debt rotation. Gestalt as canonical identity,
arena knowledge union, and semantic qualification stay deleted. Plan step six
is nine passes; two proofs added; evidence records the correction.

The multiresolution demotion undersold what survives. Coarse-by-construction
populations, deterministic clocks, debt-ordered scheduling, and batched
runner-owned representation with per-constituent attribution all carry many
subjects on few inferences without a second identity layer. Routine
commitments auto-fulfill on Time.advance so unattended ordinary life does not
default into spurious pressure. Two proofs added.

34ce8c8a63 Unify elaboration and action under one deterministic verifier
Ontology v2. Affordances become world-authored data over a closed
twenty-nine-operation kernel set: preconditions read the actor's own typed
components, effect slots bound what an invocation may propose, and kernel
entropy selects the outcome band so no model ever decides success. That
deletes the legacy wave-level outcome resolver along with the reconciler.
Proposals bind to the scope digest of the components their verification
reads instead of the whole state digest, so eight elaborator loops and many
subjects stop serializing on one revision. Elaborator tools are a projection
of the operation set and cannot drift from the reducer.

Demotes the multiresolution agency doc to teardown evidence, keeping only
resumable sessions, compact drafts, and the complete mismatch set. Plan step
six now lists eight passes with the affordance pipeline fourth.

The steward found the handoff pointing at legacy Persona runners that do not

surfaces now carry the elaboration-ontology order, the world fan-out layout,
and the deferred deployment gate. The BFL script defaulted to a key path on
the lost E: drive. The consumer API doc is marked as drift pending rewrite
against the ontology.

9c662bda23 Design the elaboration ontology
Run 115 died on a dangling reference, and the vocabulary is why. Legacy
transition.rs took caller-supplied SubjectRef{kind,id:String}, admitted
entities in two phases, and permitted mutations one at a time in a flat
batch, so a plausible-looking id was indistinguishable from a referent until
reduction. Reconciliation existed to repair that class and exhausted after
four steps. Depth lived in free strings, so the previous attempt to fix
shallowness grew model tribunals instead of structure.

The closed vocabulary: reducer-issued typed ID namespaces, draft-handle
references resolved inside one closed WorldPatch before any ID allocates,
twelve components that each constrain a decision, four derived CausalBoundary
kinds, and one AdmitPatch command shared by seed admission and boundary
elaboration. Twenty component kinds become twelve, eighteen mutation variants
become one primitive, five qualification and verification types become none,
and waves and quotas become derived boundaries.

Demotes the transition algebra doc to teardown evidence and slots the stage
into the implementation plan ahead of the deferred deployment cutover.
