- Role mentions, whole-message display-name mentions, and human replies to a Face's webhook/persona message append pending Face obligations to `pendingMentions` in `REPO_FACE_HEARTBEAT_STATE_PATH`; ordinary bot mentions and DMs append pending obligations for the built-in `void` participant. They no longer create direct provider jobs from `MessageCreate`. Name matching is exact-token matching across the message, not only prefix matching, so a human introduction such as "Meet Kiko, Huginn and Weksa" queues all named Faces. Mention detection may happen outside regular autonomous Face chatter lanes such as general; speech still crosses the normal registered channel/action rails, and the scheduler attaches the source channel snapshot so the Face can see where the call came from. The CTB scheduler temporarily prioritizes agents with pending mentions, attaches those prompts plus reply targets to the next `repo-face-rumination` or Void moderation pass, and consumes the pending items only after a turn is actually queued. Rumination jobs remain private unless they explicitly emit a parent-owned Face action block or a typed candidate intervention; the worker must never auto-post their summaries as the base bot. Heartbeat prompts now include the channel permission plan, recent context from non-primary permitted channels, social embodiment, jurisdiction respect, comedy/improv doctrine, and anti-template sampling guidance so a Face can jump into domain chatter, form durable social reads, consult the right steward, and answer people without copying nearby note formulas.
- Repo Face proposal/article PRs, PR comments, and registered-identity Discord posts now cross through parent-owned action blocks before Bifrost bridge commands. Bylined essays use the Interpreter-owned `ARTICLE` block: the Face writes naturally, the Interpreter extracts structured title/description/author/date/tags/path/body fields, and deterministic worker code renders/validates YAML frontmatter before calling `BIFROST_ROOT/tools/bifrost-bridge.mjs` for a draft PR and persona announcement. The old `VOIDBOT_REPO_IDENTITY_ARTICLE` JSON sentinel is cut. Proposal PR and PR-comment sentinels still exist as compatibility rails. This is not merely helper placement: Bifrost's original governance/labor platform role makes it the owner of governed public crossings for GameCult work, including GitHub, Discord-native work/member/swarm interactions, dispatch receipts, CultNet/CultCache intake, and future collaboration interfaces. Heimdall is the OAuth/account/capability gate; Bifrost is the bridge/request/routing/receipt authority. VoidBot still owns room cognition, moderation judgment, archive/source retrieval, and Face personality.
- Repo Face turns now receive a Bifrost governance digest from `BIFROST_ROOT/tools/governance-threads.mjs digest --repo <repo> --agent <identity>` alongside recent Discord context. Bifrost typed CultCache topics/comments are the canonical home for feature requests, Face opinions, missing questions, approvals, and dispatch receipts; Discord is a mirror/evidence source. When `BIFROST_DISCORD_CHANNEL_ID` is configured for `#bifrost`, repo Face Discord context ignores mirrored bot chatter there because the authoritative activity arrives through the Bifrost digest. Human `#bifrost` messages should only become governance comments after Bifrost/Heimdall can link the Discord id to a registered actor. Repo-local asks that would send a human or Codex to add/fix/name/scaffold/document/test/investigate/implement belong on Bifrost with enough room/repo context for a claimed Codex turn; a Face may still speak characterfully in Aquarium, but not as the only dispatch surface. Legacy `UPDATE REQUEST` packets are parsed only as compatibility input and reconciled into Bifrost topics instead of immediate transport enqueue. Local `#bifrost` is channel `1506760343836430376`; work proposals, governance mirrors, and Bifrost dispatch receipts should go there, while Aquarium remains the casual/social swarm room.
- Repo character turns now have a state-projector plus turn-Interpreter shape. The state-in boundary is `prompts/repo-face-state-projector.prompt.md`: typed state and identity material are translated into lived character prose before the child sees it. The state projector must surface values, drives, wounds, fascinations, aesthetic taste, dignity, mood, needs, social reads, bonds, agency pressure, and the personality-specific meaning of sparse or dense social topology when the state contains those facts. The deterministic state packet feeding that projector is intentionally verbose and parent-facing: it exposes private notes, values, activation vectors, runtime rest/speaking pressure, affect needs, bonds, status reads, mood dimensions, durable memories, short-term residue, agency pressures, incubating thoughts, candidate speech pressure, recent speech residue, social graph facts, room weather, and semantic curiosity graph attractors so every included variable can appear directly or bend behavior. The curiosity graph is built by seeding history/source vector retrieval from current room context, nearby channels, typed Face state, and home-jurisdiction identity, then decoding retrieved chunks into weighted attractor clusters with prominence, saturation, novelty, density, jurisdiction fit, suggested motion, and evidence labels. The projector owns turning those neutral facts into lived curiosity, boredom, fatigue, territorial pull, underexplored intrigue, or a closing/pivot impulse; deterministic code must not decide the feeling. Deterministic code may also attach neutral graph facts such as mapped people and unmapped registered peers to the projector packet, but it must not decide whether that feels like anxiety, territorial scouting, or nothing. Deterministic code attaches recent read-only home-repo activity before chat, using the Face's own state path as the repo-activity cursor source, so current implementation motion is visible as body context. Current-room and nearby-channel logs no longer cross a model conversation projector; deterministic code attaches raw oldest-to-newest transcript evidence with explicit recency/correction rules so the Face can notice human reframes directly. Deterministic code also attaches a social-affordance surface that matches active typed person-bonds/status reads to recent raw messages from that person, so relationship state arrives as a live hook rather than private decorative lore. Deterministic code still owns full prompt assembly and inspection through `scripts/run-repo-face-heartbeats.ts --assemble-prompt <identity>`; that path composes stable doctrine, allowed rooms, research/archive capability guidance, Bifrost digest, projected memory/affect prose, home-repo activity, live social affordances, and raw conversation evidence into the exact child prompt. It must not invent personality, mood, affect, or social memory from typed state. Situational obligations such as direct-call priority or first-public-introduction duty are emitted only when the scheduler packet proves they apply, not as standing prompt law. The child character writes a natural in-character turn on full `gpt-5.4` and may describe desired speech, repo/article proposals, social reads, needs, mood shifts, or memory-worthy thoughts without emitting action DSL blocks. The cheaper Spark/Mini parent Interpreter decides route/retry/drop and translates warranted effects into structured `STATE NOTE` and `SAY` blocks for the worker while governance dispatch remains paused. `STATE NOTE` blocks become typed short-term memory, affect needs, social bonds, status reads, mood dimensions, or agency pressure. The worker still accepts legacy compact JSON sentinels and legacy `UPDATE REQUEST` blocks for compatibility, but the live prompt path keeps transport and state syntax out of the character's roleplay surface.
- Repo character turns now have an Imagination plus Mind shape. The state-in boundary is `prompts/repo-face-state-projector.prompt.md`: typed state and identity material are translated into lived character prose before the child sees it. Imagination must surface values, drives, wounds, fascinations, aesthetic taste, dignity, mood, needs, social reads, bonds, agency pressure, research hints, semantic thought clusters, and the personality-specific meaning of sparse or dense social topology when the state contains those facts. The deterministic state packet feeding Imagination is intentionally verbose and parent-facing: it exposes private notes, values, activation vectors, runtime rest/speaking pressure, affect needs, bonds, status reads, mood dimensions, durable memories, short-term residue, agency pressures, incubating thoughts, candidate speech pressure, recent speech residue, social graph facts, room weather, and semantic curiosity graph attractors so every included variable can appear directly or bend behavior. The curiosity graph is built by seeding history/source vector retrieval from current room context, nearby channels, typed Face state, and home-jurisdiction identity, then decoding retrieved chunks into weighted attractor clusters with prominence, saturation, novelty, density, jurisdiction fit, suggested motion, and evidence labels. Imagination owns turning those neutral facts into lived curiosity, boredom, fatigue, territorial pull, underexplored intrigue, or a closing/pivot impulse; deterministic code must not decide the feeling. Deterministic code may also attach neutral graph facts such as mapped people and unmapped registered peers to the projector packet, but it must not decide whether that feels like anxiety, territorial scouting, or nothing. Deterministic code attaches recent read-only home-repo activity before chat, using the Face's own state path as the repo-activity cursor source, so current implementation motion is visible as body context.

The child character writes a natural in-character turn on full `gpt-5.4` and may describe desired speech, repo/article proposals, social reads, needs, mood shifts, or memory-worthy thoughts without emitting action DSL blocks. The parent Mind prompt at `prompts/repo-face-turn-interpreter.prompt.md` also runs on capable model defaults and decides route/retry/drop, translating warranted effects into structured `STATE NOTE` and `SAY` blocks for the worker while governance dispatch remains paused. `STATE NOTE` blocks become typed short-term memory, affect needs, social bonds, status reads, mood dimensions, or agency pressure. The worker still accepts legacy compact JSON sentinels and legacy `UPDATE REQUEST` blocks for compatibility, but the live prompt path keeps transport and state syntax out of the character's roleplay surface.
- `scripts/run-repo-face-heartbeats.ts` now acts as the broader agent CTB/Final-Fantasy-X-style initiative scheduler. The wall-clock task is only a pulse; virtual initiative time chooses who gets the next turn. The scheduler stores per-agent speed, reaction bias, load, groups, heat, effective speed, next-turn time, active turn markers, and recent queue history at `REPO_FACE_HEARTBEAT_STATE_PATH`. Repo Faces queue `repo-face-rumination` owner-Codex jobs; built-in Void currently participates as the `void` system agent and starts the existing moderation rumination runner as its turn. Initiative freezes while an owner-Codex job or Void moderation lock is active; recovery is scheduled only after that active turn completes, and completion cannot grant another turn in the same scheduler pulse. The active-job scan recovers stale Face jobs by marking ancient approved/running rows failed through the job queue before building the active-turn map. Repo Face speaking pressure feeds scheduler urgency: high `needToSpeak`, novelty, and confession pressure raise effective speed and can pull `nextTurnAt` closer. Above-baseline heat bypasses repo Face nap gating, while active-turn freeze still prevents overlapping thoughts.
- The live wall-clock pulse for this scheduler is `scripts/run-gamecult-orchestrator.ps1`, installed as `GameCult Local Orchestrator`. `scripts/install-repo-face-heartbeat-task.ps1` remains available for isolated testing, but its per-organ scheduled task should stay disabled in normal operation. Turn frequency is controlled by `REPO_FACE_HEARTBEAT_BASE_RECOVERY_MINUTES`, `REPO_FACE_HEARTBEAT_GLOBAL_HEAT`, `REPO_FACE_HEARTBEAT_SPEED_OVERRIDES`, and `REPO_FACE_HEARTBEAT_HEAT_OVERRIDES`. Heat keys can target `all`, `kind:<participantKind>`, `turn:<turnKind>`, `identity:<id>`, `repo:<repo>`, `display:<name>`, `channel:<id>`, or the bare identity/repo/display key.
- The local ignored registry currently includes Nibu for `AetheriaLore`, with Face state in `E:/Projects/AetheriaLore/.voidbot/state/nibu.cc`, Discord role id `1505918221453103247`, and an Aquarium channel allow-list. Nibu's Face state now treats AetheriaLore-first map-building, abrasive character voice, consensus-backed change agency, her own `Aetheria/Lore/Nibu.md` character-note stewardship, Nibu-authored lore essays, and tangential setting fascination as separate active doctrines. That tangential fascination points at embodied ship minds, junkyard abandonment, murderous autonomy, salvage, and save-scumming survival. The repo Face heartbeat organ is now pulsed by `GameCult Local Orchestrator`; after restarting the stack onto the new worker code, forced heartbeat job `76020f1e-0c55-424b-9e35-89ba7f77fcc3` completed without base-bot auto-posting.
