wip(step3): 12.5 cm voxels, fall-through fixed, brick evaluator in game, organic tunnels -- speed gate FAILS
Stopped by the owner's decision (in-game lit captures were eating the round); he judges the look in game instead. 1. Fall-through with the research field: fixed. Deep drop, gate on: 2 holds (0.50 s), min foot clearance +43 cm; gate off: penetrates (-278 cm). Stress fixture offsets converted to metres. 2. VOXEL_SIZE 25 -> 12.5 cm. Physical sizes kept in metres (player, steps, gate, insets, research field sizes, dig radii, test thresholds); class defaults that count chunks/voxels doubled (ClipRadius 6, RenderDistanceChunks 1536, ViewDistance*, StrateViewMargin 6, PawnCollisionRadius 2, SkirtCells 4, EdgeSealThickness 128, decoration spacings, density volume res 256). Asset values override these defaults: the owner must double his own. Ring scale, six workers, idle, step-2f field before the look changes: 64 m cube (519^3) 4.55 s; 32 m cube (259^3) 0.95 s. 3. In game: tiles go through the brick evaluator (proved by a log marker); profile switch rebuilds the loaded world (~5,800 tiles); full-detail fill 12.4 s after spawn in the visible-window test. 4. Look: round winding tunnels, per-column ellipsoid/lattice caches. All step-2f geometry gates pass at 12.5 cm (0 crumbs, 1 solid component per profile, solid share 69-87%). 259^3 ring, six workers: 1.08-2.02 s (worst HyperComplex) -- the 600 ms gate FAILS. Lit captures failed (hidden/off-screen window, then blank frames); not pursued.

docs: the operator stack is the only density path
- CODEMAP: data-flow diagram, §3.2b/§3.2d, generator and strate-manager rows, test rows and §4.2/§5 now describe the stack-only path; the deleted archetype functions, bUseOperatorStack and the Not Op Stack stats are gone; line hints re-synced for VoxelGenerator.cpp, VoxelStrateManager.cpp and VoxelStrateDefinition.h. - ARCHITECTURE §8.1: archetype table lists stack builders; §8.10 surface column and shaft cache entries name their current owners. - REVIEW_FINDINGS: tick "Operator stack as the only density path"; add the no-strate-manager fallback world as its own open item. - fable-idea: T1.a status names the current column caches.

docs(architecture): flag the unread biome WaterMaterial override
The single player-following water plane only uses the strate's WaterMaterial; UVoxelBiomeDefinition::WaterMaterial is never read. The design (§8.14 content profile) still lists it, so record the gap as an open owner decision instead of silently dropping it.

docs(architecture): drop the sheet ring, fix content/water to match code
- §8.10 render-distance paragraph: remove the F18 far "sheet" ring description (GenerateSheetMesh, SheetHole*, sheet re-queue). The ring is plain level-MaxClipLevel MC tiles; bFarSheetRing/FarSheetSpanLevels are documented as unused settings the runtime always passes as false. All other §8.10 invariants are kept; the budgeted-teardown note now says what UnloadTile does today (park the component), not ClearChunk. - Fix the claim that GetLODForChunk/LODToStep/IsChunkInRange/ GetStrateChunkZBounds and the ViewDistance settings are dead (the first three are gone, the last two are used); only the ceiling settings are. - §8.5: decoration results are BuildId-guarded region builds applied by ApplyRegion (no ReadyResults/DecoEpoch/ApplyDecoResult); water is one player-following plane (UpdateWater), not per-tile planes; palette tags are per-grid EntryBiome; FStrateSetPiece no longer "coming" (folded into landmarks); drop the dead ContentMaxLevel/MaxLODLevel notes. - §9.3: anchors fold in after the player clipmap (no sheet ring).

perf(generation): exact worm block skip with a proven 3D Perlin bound -- measured NEUTRAL
The sampler put the worm carve's first noise call (VoxelGenerator.cpp:3985, FusedWorm) at 19.4% of LOD0. The worm only carves where N1 + N2 < T with N2 >= 0, so where N1 >= T it contributes nothing, bit for bit. A block proven to have N1 >= T everywhere can skip both noise calls exactly. - The Lipschitz bound for this Perlin3D implementation: L = (15/4) * sqrt(3) * 1.25 = 8.118988160, in scaled-N1 units, with a 1e-3 float-rounding margin. Adversarial sampling found a worst ratio of 3.187 (0.39 L). The existing 2D floor-relief bound (8.5) is a component bound of a different field and was confirmed not to transfer. - A soundness test that can fail (VoxelForgeWormBlockSkipTest): 6,476 proved blocks, 355,945 exact lattice samples, 0 violations. A deliberately halved L proves a bad block; the full L rejects it. - voxel.WormBlockSkip, default 1. Field exact: export OBJ byte-identical (b3e5f4c3..9b377), 841/841 keyed tiles identical to NextHeadStaticTrace_20260913, capability 20,830 / 10,909. RESULT, stated plainly: no measurable speed gain. The skip rate is 4.07% of worm-eligible LOD0 samples and 0% at LOD1-4, because the bound is ~2.5x looser than the worst observed ratio at the block size used. Paired on-vs-off, two interleaved runs each: static worker +2.15%, generation p50 +1.8%; moving worker -1.42%, request p50 -2.5%. Within noise. The next round turns the default OFF. The proven bound and its test are kept for a tighter skip later (smaller or hierarchical blocks, or a per-cell bound). Run ledger (from Codex's report): the first build failed on an ambiguous test overload and was fixed; two timing runs are void because the orchestrator stopped the session so the owner could use the PC; the eight valid timing runs, the sampler run and the diagnostics runs completed. No new crash folders. PERF-SAMPLED.md now lists all eight earlier-round UECC crash records.

perf(generation): field-exact LOD0 overhead removal; the unknown bucket is Core.dll
Field-preserving floor round (Codex; reviewed by me against the code):
- exact per-(sample, passage) caching of native/generic floor projections and walkable-air
checks, behind voxel.FloorRound1PassageProjectionCache
- a zero-work disabled path for VoxelDensityProfile::FScopedTimer, unchanged when enabled
- pointer / range-for iteration in the proven-hot tunnel, passage, spatial and candidate loops
(TArray RangeCheck was ~6.5% of LOD0 samples on the Development binaries the owner plays on)
- FVector2D temporaries replaced with scalar doubles, same operations in the same order
- FSurfaceColumn made trivial, so thread-local construction does no work. Verified safe:
ComputeSurfaceColumn writes all five outputs unconditionally before any branch, and every read
of Box.Cols is gated by Box.Computed
Verified: export OBJ byte-identical (b3e5f4c3..9b377); capability 20,830 / 10,909; all 8
interleaved game runs gave identical totals (841 tiles / 669,834 triangles static, 2,348 /
1,985,216 moving, the same as previous rounds). Per-tile identity for the always-on changes still
needs a check against a stored trace; that is queued first in the next round.
Game path (sampler off, two interleaved runs each):
projection-cache switch alone: neutral (static worker +0.41%, moving -0.05%)
vs the previous round (

perf(streaming): item 3 bought nothing, item 5 removed dead weight -- both worth knowing
Two WORK-NEXT items, one null result and one confirmed removal. Item 4 untouched.
ITEM 3 -- CANCEL OBSOLETE WORK AND PRIORITISE THE FLOOR: NULL RESULT
Clean -nullrhi, diagnostics off, 800 cm/s, 200 m of travel:
before after
request->ready p95 0.369117 s 0.367612 s
queue wait p95 0.066949 s 0.064483 s
generation p95 0.287926 s 0.283642 s
p95 travel distance 2.952938 m 2.940894 m
obsolete aborts 0 12
Flat. Aborting obsolete tiles, sorting from the true pawn position and prioritising the
occupied/next tile changed request-to-ready by 0.4%.
⭐ AND THE NULL RESULT IS ITSELF THE FINDING. Look at the split: queue wait is 65 ms of a
368 ms p95; generation is 284 ms. **The queue was never the problem, so reordering it
cannot help.** Only 12 tiles in a 200 m run were obsolete enough to abort. The floor is
late because generation is slow, not because work is badly ordered -- item 3 establishes
that by exclusion, which is worth more than the 0.4%.
The machinery is kept: it is correct, it costs nothing, and it will matter once
generation is fast enough for ordering to be the binding constraint.
ITEM 5 -- VERDICT CACHE REMOVED. It was pure overhead.
Clean moving-session audit:
outer calls/probes/hits 2,109 / 2,109 / 0
nested calls/probes/hits 19,904 / 19,904 / 0
enclosing hits 0
stores 15,877, evictions 15,365
⇒ It stored 15,877 proofs, evicted 15,365 of them, and hit ZERO times. A moving player
visits unique regions; the cache was filling and thrashing a 512-entry table under a
global lock for no benefit. Same-binary A/B: request p95 0.367645 vs 0.365978,
generation p95 0.285559 vs 0.285992 -- neutral within noise, so its cost was the lock and
the linear scans rather than time we can see.
Removed: the global cache, its lock, the entry table, the invalidation path, the
cache-only profiler fields and the synthetic probe. The proof classifier stays.
⚠️ I asked for this cache two days ago on the strength of a commandlet measurement that
re-visited the same region repeatedly. That access pattern is nothing like a moving
player, and I should have said so when specifying it.

perf(gen): a thrashing one-slot cache cost 18.7x -- and the world is unchanged
TunnelNetwork density evaluation was 45x more expensive than Maze for identical work: 2,097,152 voxels, 64 tiles, same mesher, same machine. Profiling killed every hypothesis I brought to it -- box classification skipping 0/64 tiles was true but irrelevant (export bypasses classification), near-surface early-outs fired at 49.7%, the room cache built 340 entries for 2.74M samples, and the per-room overrides resolved once per sample rather than once per modifier. The cause was the wrapper, not the stack. A mesher tile samples an EXPANDED grid (-1..Cells+1), so one worker crosses several exact chunk coordinates while meshing a single tile. The generator's cache held only the last coordinate, so every boundary crossing rebuilt the resolved parameters, the whole 22-operator stack and the tunnel-core cache. On one representative tile: 3,675 refetches, 38.0s. The entire operator stack was 18.5s of a 4,272s total -- 0.43%. Replaced with a 128-slot direct-mapped thread_local cache keyed on owner, chunk, layout version, params fingerprint and generator type. Collisions force a safe rebuild, never a stale read. No shared mutable state, no order-dependent reduction. TunnelNetwork 344.5s / 164.267 us/vox -> 18.4s / 8.763 us/vox (18.7x) Maze 7.4s / 3.535 us/vox -> 1.08s / 0.513 us/vox ( 6.9x) same tile 38.0s -> 0.51s ; refetches 3675 -> 27 Output is BYTE-IDENTICAL, before vs after and across repeats, both archetypes: TunnelNetwork 50d6b4d0..f23126, Maze 364f7489..2fbe99. The permission to change the field was not needed. Also in this commit, from the two preceding tasks: - Explorer renders from the MESH instead of raymarching. It meshes the region once through the canonical UVoxelMarchingCubesMesher, then CPU-rasterises via a BVH. A viewpoint went from ~16 minutes to 0.155s; 8 views now cost 1.25s of drawing. No render pixel samples the density field. - One sampled grid and player-fit mask per run, shared by render/walk/export, instead of the same 368s walk computed twice. - A wall-clock budget (25 min default, hard 30 max) that stops cleanly and records truncated/truncated_during/completed_modes rather than overshooting. - ParallelFor across the measurement sampling; the suite was ~10% of a 16-thread machine. - -surfaceroughness= on the commandlet, and a surface-relief metric in export mode (edge lengths, dihedral distribution, face-vs-smooth normal divergence) so "does this look like rock" is a number, not a screenshot argument. - Smooth vertex normals in the rasteriser: FVoxelMeshData::Normals is the density-gradient normal the engine shades with, and the raster path was recomputing a face normal over it. - ScaleDiagnosis: baked candidate indices are now derived from the current corpus, so a legitimate field change stops breaking the test. NOT verified, and not claimed: - TunnelNetworkSpineEquivalence exceeded the 30-minute cap and was stopped. Inconclusive, not passing. The identical hashes are strong evidence the op-stack/legacy equivalence holds, but the test has not confirmed it. - CrossPlatformDigest passes but reports 2 samples within 1e-6 of the isosurface; FMath::Sin/Cos leaves Windows/Linux equivalence unproven. Pre-existing, not caused by this change. - The cache's memory footprint (128 entries x ~16 workers) is unmeasured. What the roughness sweep settled, for the record: SurfaceRoughness 0 -> 8 moves cost by 0.3% (163.2 / 163.2 / 163.7 us), so roughness was never the cost. It does reach the surface (dihedral p50 1.1 -> 2.2 -> 5.9), which kills my claim that the density-channel operator contributed nothing. TunnelNetwork's hard seams are present at roughness 0 (4.4% of edges past 40 deg vs Maze's 1.0%), so they are structural -- in how primitives are unioned -- not a roughness deficiency. More roughness makes them worse, not better. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_012aheo2crrZmHuYtPpdY2Cb |

feat(descent): landing ROOMS and a walkable tunnel -- per Jahni's correction
Jahni corrected the design: "the connection between level is a tiny tunnel
connecting both strate, not vertical, it needs to be walkable" and "'the
spine' shouldn't be carved except optionally from the top first strate,
then it's used to have a landing room".
COMPOSER-NOTES §6.8 had said the spine "provides a clean landing space, not
a continuous open shaft" -- and the implementation carved a vertical
cylinder anyway. A vertical cylinder has no walkable floor except at its
bottom, so a carve guaranteeing open AIR guaranteed nothing STANDABLE.
That one omission is behind five of my dead hypotheses this week.
Now:
origin spine a finite rounded ROOM per strate, no vertical bore.
radius 14 -> 8 m wide, 7.5 m tall
descent a walkable tunnel, single-file by design: 3 m mouth,
2.5 m waist, gradient capped at a NAMED 15 deg
exotic styles VerticalShaft / SpiralDescent / CascadingDrops /
CrackCrevice preserved, no longer the default
⚠️ THE GEOMETRY BITES, and it is worth Jahni's eye: at 15 deg a 32 m drop
needs 119.4 m of horizontal run -- about 59.7 m per switchback leg. That is
a long walk between strates. It is the honest consequence of "walkable",
not a tuning artifact, and the alternative is a steeper number.
⭐ AND THE ROOT CAUSE GOT NAMED A THIRD TIME, by Codex mid-run: "the round
tube was hollow air but had no authored support strip, so 'open' still did
not mean 'standable'." Tunnels now carry a floor band, and the root join
terminates in the finite origin room rather than an annular shaft hub.
Measured, commandlet sweep, 8 archetypes x 8 seeds, 64/64 valid:
origin column has player-fit cells 17/64 -> 63/64
origin column reachable 0/64 -> 7/64
arrival landing probes 315/320 fit AND in the arrival component
tunnel audit 5,916/5,916 floor and capsule samples pass; zero gradient,
floor, capsule, geometry or seal failures
narrow-gap events 0 box verdicts 14 checked, 0 violations
⚠️ arrival->departure is 6/64. The landings and tunnels are now provably
walkable; what remains is the INTRA-STRATE vertical connectivity problem

feat(explore): a commandlet -- 91x faster, and the first real PICTURE
Every experiment in this project cost a build + full-suite cycle. The
landing task took 52 of them over ~9 hours. And nobody could SEE the world:
every visual judgement all session was made on density SLICES -- diagrams,
not pictures. That is how a floor heaving 1.4 m every two metres got
described as "roughness visible but modest" while Jahni spotted it in
thirty seconds by walking it.
-run=VoxelForgeExplore, editor-only module, three modes, one build many runs:
render raymarched PNGs, fixed 0.25-voxel step + 10 bisection iterations
(NOT sphere tracing -- the op stack yields density, not a signed
distance, so a long step tunnels through walls). Three views, each
with a 1.76 m human marker in frame, because every scale mistake
here came from numbers with no body beside them.
walk an agent using the EXISTING VF player-fit stencil, never its own
movement model -- two definitions of "can a player stand here"
would drift and we could not tell which was lying.
export OBJ through the canonical UVoxelMarchingCubesMesher. No second
mesher; a forked meshing invariant is the bug this project keeps
paying for. 23.2 MB, 106,762 verts, 200,842 tris for 128^3.
⭐ THE NUMBER THAT JUSTIFIES IT: the full automation run takes 4,396 s
(73m16s). The commandlet does all three modes in 48.1 s wall, 5.9 s of
which is engine startup. ~91x faster. And I had guessed the suite cost
~90 s -- it is 73 MINUTES. The iteration loop was far more expensive than
I knew.
First real walk metrics on the Maze (seed 0, slot 4):
distance 214 m · tortuosity 4.98 · dead ends 0.935/100 m
narrow-gap events 0 · reachable fit fraction 3.01%
result NotConnectedAtThisResolution
Tortuosity ~5 is a genuinely winding route, which is right for a maze.
3% reachable is not.
Editor Development build clean. SHIPPING build clean with the receipt
containing VoxelForge and NOT VoxelForgeEditor -- the instrument cannot
reach a packaged game. Automation 32/32, 0 failed.
⚠️ Codex initially shipped this UNBUILT, and correctly: I omitted the
## Validation section from that spec, so it fell back to CLAUDE.md's
"NEVER build or compile". 100+ compile errors from three causes -- bare
TCondensedJsonPrintPolicy and TJsonWriter needing their template
arguments, and a missing UObject/Package.h. That include is the SECOND
miss this session, so CODEMAP §6 now carries the gotcha.
⚠️ Unrelated, found in passing: VoxelForge.uplugin does not declare
RealtimeMeshComponent although the runtime module uses it.

feat(passages): §6.5 landings -- you arrive somewhere you can stand
The last unbuilt Tier 1 item. A passage was a bore through rock with no floor inside the walkable angle, so its mouth was not a standing position and neither was anything near it -- the departure mouth measured a FOUR-CELL player-fit component. You arrived and there was nowhere to stand. Both ends of all 7 passages now open into a landing, sized from the body: capsule diameter 2.72 vox floor >= 12 vox (3 m) to stand and turn capsule height 7.04 vox room >= 12 vox tall, stock mouth gives 18 (4.5 m) 3-voxel floor slab, tube tangent to it -- no lip to climb out of connector 5-vox radius: 2.5 m clear width, 3 m clear height ramps over 44 deg get a deterministic level dog-leg ⭐ THE MOUTHS ARE NO LONGER SPECKS: archetype components largest arrival-departure Maze 309 -> 340 176 -> 3210 43-81 -> 3210-3210 TunnelNetwork 467 -> 227 1292 -> 3841 2-1 -> 3841-269 Underwater 86 -> 117 35 -> 3838 3-11 -> 3838-267 FlatPlain 45 -> 11 259 -> 2130 1-1 -> 268-273 CrystalChamber 197 -> 90 24 -> 286 1-1 -> 286-274 FloatingIslands 2 -> 1 3 -> 72 1-1 -> 72-72 Law 1/8 -> 2/7 connected (1 refused on MaxCells), and critically ZERO connections now run through a four-cell pocket. Every landing floor was verified against the FINAL density, after all posts: 14/14 pass the 44 deg slope bracket, worst room gradient .059, worst connector .522. 14/14 deterministic root joins. 0 seal failures. 0 box-verdict violations across 82 proved + 174 mixed, 109,142 voxels. Op-stack bit-identical, order-independence green over 10 slots / 31 passages / 3 pool orders. Cache 0.665 us rebuild, 0.646 us hot. Post order: origin spine -> vertical seal -> passage tube + landing floor -> XY edge seal. Landings clamp 4 voxels inside the vertical seal; the XY seal stays last and wins at world edges. ⚠️ ARCHITECTURAL NOTE, not a detail: landings join a deterministic annular ROOT HUB at (0,0), built identically for every endpoint -- no nearest- component search, no passage ordering. That is what makes the join guaranteed rather than likely, and it extends the (0,0) spine concept from a landmark into a structural network. It also means routes tend to pass through the centre, which is a gameplay consequence worth Jahni's eye. ⚠️ AND IT DOES NOT CLOSE THE LAW. Codex is explicit: the landings guarantee membership in the new root network, NOT in the archetype's pre-existing fit component. The whole-strate Maze check still shows a 71.9-voxel gap between 1,235 and 2,938-cell components. So the native corridor networks remain disconnected from the root network in places. Real, separate, next. 52 build-and-measure cycles, ~9 hours, finding real geometry bugs on the way (a landing floor overlapping the ramp cells and hiding a floor discontinuity; the disturbance pass refilling connector headroom). Build clean, 32/32 success, 0 failed. Showcase regenerated. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01K8V9my1PL68pmQb2gutZZV |

feat(maze): a spanning tree -- it is a maze now, not a grid
Jahni: "mostly a cube full of straight pathway along the edges... basically
just a repeating pattern of tunnel connecting to each other, definitely
unwanted". And the measurement: the arrival mouth in a 30-cell pocket while
the network held 1,217. SAME CAUSE -- edge selection was independent hash
gating per +X/+Y/+Z edge, i.e. a random subgraph of the cubic lattice.
Every junction identical, and connectivity left to chance.
Fixed the way VerticalShafts was fixed in

feat(scale): size the world to a human body -- and it is NOT enough
Jahni: "can't you try and make the world to scale?" Every length parameter is now derived from the body and annotated with its metre value, so nobody has to do the arithmetic to notice something is absurd. CorridorRadius 4 -> 8 1 m -> 2 m radius (4 m bore) CellSize 40 -> 64 keeps a real wall between wider corridors TunnelMinRadius 3 -> 6 0.75 m -> 1.5 m ShaftMinRadius 5 -> 8 1.25 m -> 2 m IslandMinRadius 18 -> 24 4.5 m -> 6 m MouthRadius 6 -> 8 passage mouths 4 m plus passage reach, spiral, cascade, bridges, ridges, chasms The reasoning that motivated it still looks right: a 2 m circular bore for a 1.76 m player clears the head only along the exact centreline, so almost no cell has a floor with 7.04 voxels of clear air above it. A 4 m bore is genuinely walkable. ⚠️ BUT IT DID NOT FIX TRAVERSABILITY, and this time it is not the instrument. The player-fit law is measured at STEP 1 on a mouth-fitted window -- full resolution, both mouths inside the box -- and across the eight showcase archetypes it reports: 6 NotConnectedAtThisResolution (real negatives at full resolution) 2 OutOfWindow (unmeasurable, not passing) 1 StartCellNotPlayerFit (the arrival mouth itself is too small) 0 CONNECTED And every archetype reports hard-gate survivors=0, so the showcase is displaying the least-bad of an entirely failing set. ⛔ DO NOT READ player_fit_fraction / player_clearance FROM THE SHOWCASE LINE. Those come from the COARSE step-4 measurement in the same log line, where the 1.36-voxel player is sub-cell and fit is unmeasurable -- player_clearance reads a uniform "1.00 voxels" for all eight archetypes, which is one cell, not one voxel. Only restricted_law is at step 1 and only it is trustworthy. Fixing that mixed-resolution reporting is next. So scale was necessary and insufficient. My hypothesis was that bore diameter versus body height was the binding constraint; doubling it moved nothing measurable. Something else is preventing player-sized volume from existing at all -- worth finding before tuning any further. Codex applied these edits and then died mid-poll without validating them (third time a killed agent left a clean-looking unbuilt diff). Build and suite run by me: build clean, 30 succeeded / 0 failed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01K8V9my1PL68pmQb2gutZZV |

feat(runtime): the composed world can BE the game world
Jahni: "can you not implement those settings? as in, have them be live in
game?" This is that. The composer stops being a lab tool.
THE ARCHITECTURAL LINE, which is the whole design (COMPOSER-NOTES §3.1):
COMPOSITION stays editor-only, EVALUATION becomes runtime. Rolling,
measuring, preview, selection, promotion, the corpus -- none of it reaches
a player's machine. What crosses into the runtime is exactly two things:
reading a season manifest, and materialising a recipe into an op stack.
UVoxelSeasonAsset a cookable UPrimaryDataAsset holding the manifest,
so a season ships in a packaged game. The JSON
stays the reviewable, git-diffable artefact.
UVoxelSettings::Season optional. Unset => behaviour is exactly as today.
GetEffective*() season seed / spine radius / world radius / season
number override the authored values when assigned.
The test deliberately sets DIFFERENT authored
values, so "the season is authoritative" is proved
rather than coincidental.
⭐ MULTIPLAYER DETERMINISM, PROVED: two independent runtime managers built
the same season and compared 393,216 density samples BIT-IDENTICALLY. This
is the property the whole multiplayer model rests on -- replicate seed +
layout + diff, never geometry.
⭐ AND A STALE SEASON IS DETECTABLE, NOT SILENT. Initialize() now returns
bool and an assigned-but-invalid season NEVER falls back to the authored
pool. Falling back would hand a client a world that looks fine and is not
the season -- silent divergence, the worst failure mode in a shared world.
GetCurrentSeasonContentHash() is exposed BlueprintPure to compare at join.
HasComposerRecipeOverride() is gone. It force-classified every custom recipe
as Mixed, which was correct while box verdicts were only proved for
hand-written stacks -- but

feat(composer): lateral REGIONS -- built, measured, and gated OFF
Jahni's own idea: "archetype could even mix within the same strate at some
point, tunnel network leading to a big chamber". An archetype becomes a
spatial REGION inside a strate, not a label on it.
Built by extending the mechanism that already exists rather than inventing
one: the stack blends VERTICALLY between strates, so regions blend the same
way LATERALLY. Deterministic jittered Voronoi sites on a 256-voxel lattice,
1-3 regions per strate from (seed, strateIndex), 24-voxel symmetric blend
band, per-chunk lookup cache. Parameters are never blended -- a shaft's
ShaftSpacing means nothing to a slab -- only the resulting DENSITY is.
Structural posts stay global and unconditional, so an invented region
cannot switch off the primordial law.
single-region path BIT-IDENTICAL to legacy, 256 probes, native + recipe
cross-boundary boxes 20 of 40, 199,800 voxels brute-forced, 0 VIOLATIONS
(every seam-spanning box correctly returned Mixed)
blend-band cost 663 ns vs 338 ns per voxel, over 16.0% of voxels
~1.15x field-weighted
survival 16/16 valid, non-vacuous, largest share >= .50
⛔ AND IT IS GATED OFF, because the seam breaks the one law that matters:
arrival -> departure across a region boundary passes 9/16 seeds, against
11/16 same-region controls in the same harness. Density blending alone does
not guarantee a player can cross a seam. A strate that mixes archetypes and
strands you at the boundary is strictly worse than one that does not mix.
VF_LateralRegionsAreShippable() returns false and the test ASSERTS THE GATE
IS SHUT while the rate is imperfect -- so flipping it without fixing
connectivity turns the suite red by design. The rate is a warning, not an
assertion: it is the measured state of an off-by-default feature, not a
regression in a live world, and a permanently red suite stops being read,
which is how real failures get missed.
Everything that ships is still hard-guarded: single-region bit-identity,
zero cross-boundary box violations, and every shipping-path law test
untouched.
The fix is an explicit CROSS-SEAM CORRIDOR CONTRACT -- a design decision,
recorded rather than made unilaterally. Codex diagnosed this correctly and
declined to tune the threshold, which was the right call.
Build clean, 29 succeeded / 0 failed, run and verified by me.

feat(editor): walk a composed candidate in PIE + why rooms read angular
PART B -- the thing Jahni asked for: "any way to test those in game?" A candidate existed only as measurements and PNGs. Now he can stand in one. Select the VoxelWorld actor in PIE -> Live Edit|Composer -> ComposerSeed / ComposerCandidateIndex / ComposerTargetStrateIndex / bComposerRollStructure -> click Apply Composer Candidate. The button and the automation tests call the SAME roll wrapper, which was the load-bearing requirement: a second roll path could drift, and then he would be judging a different world than the contact sheet describes. A determinism sample is logged on apply (seed, index, recipe, archetype, metrics, epoch, eight-point density verdict) so drift is caught the day it happens rather than in a month. Hazards handled, since this is the first composer code to touch the live runtime path: preflight materialisation before any live mutation, generation and decoration tasks drained, PassagesVersion bumped to invalidate thread_local caches, reuse of the existing RegenerateAllChunks / Epoch invalidation rather than a new path, no Initialize() or GeneratePassages() during apply (the re-entrancy trap), DiffLayer locks untouched, and custom recipes conservatively force ClassifyTile to Mixed. Scope is deliberate: a DENSITY-ONLY overlay. Layout height, authored passages, content, water and biome metadata stay from the existing slot; RebuildStrates() clears it. A full composed layout replacement needs a safe rebuild path that does not exist yet. Editor-only, verified: a Shipping build succeeds with the bridge excluded (96/96 actions), so §3.1's "offline only, never on a player's machine" still holds. ⚠️ UNVERIFIED BY DESIGN: a button cannot be tested headlessly and Codex was told not to claim it works. Jahni presses it and confirms the visual plus the "determinism=PASS" log line. PART A -- why rooms read angular, measured not guessed. One of three room shapes is VoxelSDF::RoundedBox: ShapeA = (.8 Rxy, .8 Rxy, .8 Rz) ShapeR = .25 Rxy so rounding is 31% of the horizontal half-extent but 78% of the vertical. Corners are rounded; the broad planar FACES survive. SmoothMin (blend 4) softens room/tunnel junctions not isolated corners; the cave warp bends geometry but preserves flat regions; roughness is surface-scale only. The name is accurate -- "rounded box" is not "blob". NOT ACTED ON. Jahni corrected his own read: the angular archetype is Maze (lattice source, rectilinear BY DESIGN and correct), and TunnelNetwork is "alright-ish". Codex's recommendation is recorded for if he ever wants it: ~5-10% boxes, 10-20% capsules, rest ellipsoids, or a larger ShapeR. Also closed REVIEW_FINDINGS EVoxelPassageType/Style as WONTFIX, enacting a 2026-08-16 judgement that recommended closure and was left open.

feat(opstack): EffectOverBox correct in ISOLATION -- the blocker is closed
COMPOSER-NOTES §6.1, titled THE BLOCKER, gated everything after it. A source writing only Sdf did not touch density, so it answered the box query ON BEHALF OF the converter that followed it -- fine when a human wrote and verified the pair, unsafe the moment the composer assembles a combination nobody checked. And the failure is the silent one: a tile wrongly proved uniform means no geometry, no collision, no error, and a player falls through the floor. FVoxelBoxHypotheses now carries FVoxelBoxSdfInterval. SDF writers publish their own [Min, Max]; replacement writers replace it, accumulating writers MinWith it; converters and detail ops consume the prior interval through a state-aware EffectOverBox. Each op answers only for itself and the fold composes them. Unknown, invalid, non-finite or unimplemented bounds force Mixed -- when in doubt the answer is Mixed, because a missed skip costs milliseconds and a false uniform costs a player. Bounds are SUPREMA of what Eval can produce, never the param named "max": FBM 1.5 (not 1.0), max(Min,Max) radius envelopes, warp sqrt(2), SmoothMin slack. [FLT_MAX, FLT_MAX] is the exact no-surface identity. ⭐ THE PROOF IS THE NOVEL STACK. Built a combination no shipping builder produces: ConstantVoid -> LatticeCorridorSource -> SdfRoughness -> SdfFill brute-forced 332,750 voxels across 256 boxes: 250 proved AllAir, 0 VIOLATIONS. If isolation is real an unverified stack must still be sound, and it is. That test -- not the refactor -- is the deliverable. Every archetype re-proved by brute force, 0 violations everywhere: Maze 112/256 · CrystalChamber 38/60 · Underwater 33/40 · FlatPlain 32/60 VerticalShafts 28/60 · FloatingIslands 15/60 · TunnelNetwork prod 9/40 TunnelNetwork dense 0/40 (correctly -- it really is all mixed) COST, reported not hidden: isolation gives up some skipping. TunnelNetwork production 12->9, VerticalShafts 32->28. Answering for yourself alone is strictly weaker than answering for a verified pair. The classifier stays materially useful and the trade buys safe composition, which is the point. Eval is untouched; equivalence tests bit-identical; no per-voxel box query. SurfaceWorld keeps its separate exact height/lattice classifier. Also: ⛔ WITHDREW the "corrective ops must be fused" claim from §3.2. FFloorBiasMod does NOT undo FCaveRoughnessMod -- it adds an independent NormZ^2 x FloorBias term to the ACCUMULATED density and never reads TotalRough. Not a correction, no fuse, no "corrects" dependency. The claim came from reading a name and a comment; one grep would have shown the ten Density-writing ops in between before the paragraph was written.

feat(opstack): every op declares its channels -- ordering becomes derivable
The composer must assemble stacks nobody wrote by hand. Today the legal order of operators lives in a human's head and in the hand-written builders. COMPOSER-NOTES §3.2: an op's legal position is fixed by which channel it READS and which it WRITES, so dependencies form a DAG and any topological sort of that DAG is a legal stack. EVoxelOpChannel names the two fields FVoxelOpSample actually carries (Density, Sdf) -- read from the struct, not assumed. All 29 concrete density ops declare reads, writes and additive/transformative, filled in by reading each Eval rather than trusting its name. The declarations are PURE VIRTUAL so a new op cannot silently omit them; the composer's safety depends on every op answering. A declaration nobody checks is a comment, so ValidateChannelOrder exists and VoxelForge.OpStack.ChannelDAG runs all eight shipping stacks through it. All pass: TunnelNetwork/Underwater 20 ops, Maze 8, VerticalShafts 9, FloatingIslands 8, FlatPlain/CrystalChamber 6, SurfaceWorld 6. Metadata is snapshotted in FVoxelOpStack::Add, so no declaration virtual is ever called per voxel -- ARCHITECTURE §8.10 respected. ⚠️ THE FUSE WAS DELIBERATELY NOT APPLIED, and the reason is the finding I asked for instead. §3.2 assumed FFloorBiasMod sits next to FCaveRoughnessMod. It does not: TEN ops separate them (Terrace, LayerLine, Ribbing, Overhang, Cliff, Scallop, Arch, RoomColumn, Dome, Pinch), and all ten read and write Density. Moving FloorBias would reorder the live density accumulation, and IEEE-754 addition is not bitwise commutative -- so the note's claim that fusing "leaves the field bit-identical" is false as written. That leaves a real open question for the composer, recorded not resolved: channel rules alone say any Density->Density order is legal, but they cannot express "this op CORRECTS that one". Either the fuse proceeds and accepts a changed field (legitimate -- peer determinism never required bit-identity across builds), or corrective intent needs its own declaration. Settling it needs FFloorBiasMod's actual math read, which is the next question I put to Codex. Build clean, 22 succeeded / 0 failed, verified in VoxelM.log.

fix(shafts): the primordial law holds -- 0 trusted negatives across 16 seeds
Closes the VerticalShafts bug. Two remaining failures were investigated
and neither was a broken world.
PART A -- my measurement window was binding, not the world.
The window was a square centred on (0,0) with a radius, while mouths sit
up to ~200 voxels out in arbitrary directions, so a box holding both was
mostly empty space paid for at full price. Seed 6 at step 1 needed
16,515,072 cells and blew the cap; fitted to the two mouths it needs
6,553,344 and measures fine.
seed 6 step 2 NOT_CONNECTED -> CONNECTED at doubled margin
seed 6 step 1 NOT_CONNECTED -> CONNECTED at doubled margin
seed 14 step 2 CONNECTED
seed 14 step 1 CONNECTED
A fitted box can cut off a route that detours outside it, so every
negative is re-run at doubled margin. 5 of 16 were binding negatives and
all 5 flipped. TRUSTED NEGATIVES: 0. There is no evidence of a single
unescapable strate in 16 seeds.
PART B -- the drainage tree has no orphans, and a third cause existed.
0 / 10,372 unreachable shaft paths (0% orphan rate)
16 strict local minima, all caught by the direct-spine fallback
neighbour fallback fired 0 times; emergency fallback 0
91.8% of non-largest components are smaller than one shaft volume --
they are roughness bubbles, not geometry
So a mouth could land in a noise bubble that is open but unreachable --
worse than useless, exactly the trap the law forbids.
VF_SuggestLandingPoint now returns the selected shaft AXIS, which is on
the drainage tree by construction.
⚠️ Codex found a third cause neither of us listed: tree capsules could
cross ledge bands, so a guaranteed connector could be blocked by a ledge.
Connector Z is now drawn from a deterministic ledge-free interval,
mirrored in the op stack.
⚠️ And an 8th error in my spec: "connect to any neighbour shaft" as a
fallback can create CYCLES -- a loop of shafts that drains nowhere and is
disconnected from the spine. The fallback must preserve strictly
decreasing origin-distance. Implemented that way.
per-archetype law 6/6 · box-verdict violations 0 · stack equivalence
bit-identical over 20,000 samples · sweep 45.3 -> 20.4 s
cache 7.970 us rebuild, 0.073 us hot call (225-cell rolls on rebuild only)

feat(world): the XY edge seal -- the fourth structural invariant
VF_ApplyBoundarySeal was purely VERTICAL: it sealed each strate's ceiling
and floor and there was no horizontal equivalent, because until the depths
were bounded the world had no sides. The GDD now says "bounded, but
gigantic", so a player who walked far enough reached unterminated
generation running off into nothing.
Built as a FORCING op, appended automatically and not author-omittable, so
an invented strate cannot forget its own edge. Because a forcing op proves
AllSolid in its band, the outer shell also becomes free to skip in tile
classification -- correctness and a perf win from one change.
order spine -> vertical seal -> passage carving -> XY EDGE SEAL
-> disturbances -> diff
A near-rim passage may pierce a vertical seal; the XY seal runs after and
wins. A passage must never punch a hole through the world's edge.
ClassifyBox/ForcedMarginOverBox proved via the closest AABB radius with a
one-voxel margin: 8 boxes proved, 1 tile proved, 600 voxels brute-forced,
0 violations. FXYEdgeSealOp is IsXYPure. Max rim discontinuity .187 against
a 1.0 threshold -- a ramp, not a cylinder wall.
⚠️ WorldRadiusVoxels DEFAULTS TO 0, and that is deliberate. Codex flagged
that DA_Settings and BP_VoxelSettings predate the property and so do not
serialize it -- they inherit the C++ default silently. A default of 8192
would have walled in every existing world on next editor open with nothing
in the asset to explain it. 0 is a bitwise no-op (45 interior comparisons
against the unbounded path prove it). The GDD's intended ~8192 is a value
to set in the asset, deliberately, once. Documented at the declaration.
Codex found four spec errors, three of them mine: VF_ApplyBoundarySeal
lives in VoxelDensityPrimitives.h not VoxelCaveMorphology; the asset
default trap above; and my "density increases through the band" wording
contradicts the MC sign convention (solid is more NEGATIVE) -- the test
measures increasing solidness.
Build clean, 21 succeeded / 0 failed, run and verified by me.

feat(shafts): a drainage tree -- the field goes from 22% to 97% connected
The plateau was the tell. Roughness changed the component COUNT (it
manufactures noise pockets) but the giant component sat at ~0.22 in every
variant, and widening connectors past the proven roughness bound barely
moved it. That is a random graph below its percolation threshold: 0.6
sites, 0.35 bonds, and a 1.6-cell pair cutoff that drops many neighbour
pairs once jitter spreads them 1.7 (orthogonal) to 2.4 (diagonal) cells
apart.
So the lever was topology. Every shaft now emits a deterministic connector
to the nearest shaft STRICTLY closer to the origin, so chains drain inward
and terminate at the spine. The probabilistic connectors stay as texture
and loops -- the tree guarantees you can get out, the noise keeps it from
reading as a diagram.
Deliberately NOT tuned: raising CrossConnectChance/ShaftDensity/the cutoff
toward the percolation threshold buys a world connected at one seed and
shattered at the next, which is exactly the 1-in-16 behaviour we had. A
phase transition is not a knob.
seed 1337 components 30 -> 17, largest share .220 -> .975
16 seeds spine is the largest component in 16/16 (was 8/16)
largest share .58 - .9999
Seam safety, because a parent computed from a 3x3 window would differ
between chunks and the connector would exist in one and not the other:
collect over 7x7, emit only for the inner 3x3, whose 5x5 candidate windows
are then fully contained. 154 seam probes per path, 0 mismatches.
Box verdicts re-checked against the new air: 27 proved, 33 mixed,
0 violations. Stack mirror bit-identical over 20,000 samples.
Perf: 1.634 us forced rebuild, 0.100 us hot call -- the 49 rolls happen
only on cache rebuild, never per voxel.
⚠️ ACCEPTANCE STILL FAILS: arrival->departure 4/16 (was 1/16). Reported,
not tuned. With 97% of the air in one component, two mouths that both land
IN the field would essentially always connect -- so the remaining failure
is placement, not topology. Next.
Build clean, 20 succeeded / 0 warnings / 0 failed.

feat(shafts): the spine joins its neighbours -- necessary, not sufficient
Jahni chose: make the (0,0) column join the shafts it passes, so VerticalShafts behaves like the other seven archetypes. Built, and it works as far as it goes -- the spine is now the LARGEST air component in 13 of 16 seeds (share up to 0.81, was 0.096 and never largest). ⚠️ IT DOES NOT MEET THE ACCEPTANCE CRITERION. arrival->departure is still 1/16. Reported as a failure rather than dressed up, because the criterion was the measured law, not "the code was written". The test now prints ACCEPTANCE arrival->departure: FAIL (1/16 seeds pass) so it cannot be quietly forgotten. Why it is insufficient, and it is structural: the spine only joins its own 3x3 cell neighbourhood, while passage mouths land 60-200 voxels from (0,0). The departure network is unreachable from the spine in all 16 seeds. Joining the hub to its neighbours does not help if the rest of the graph never reaches the hub. Part A diagnosis (seed 1337, margin 0, step 2, radius 192): baseline 30 components, largest .220 roughness 0 17 components, largest .226 connector radius 8 29 components, largest .229 H1 is real but partial: roughness fragments the space (13 of the 30 components are noise pockets), yet widening connectors past the proven roughness bound barely moves it. So roughness is NOT what severs the network -- the largest component sits at ~0.22 in every variant, which is the signature of a graph below its percolation threshold. The lever is topology, not radius. H2 (the hardcoded 1.6 pair cutoff) went untested. Implementation notes: the spine is added ONLY as a connector endpoint, not as a carving shaft -- VF_ApplyOriginSpine remains sole owner -- and is excluded from ledge placement. Spine connectors use radius 6.625, above the proven roughness supremum of 5.625 (sup|FBM| = 1.5, not 1.0). SpineRadius is threaded through BuildVerticalShaftStack, not hardcoded. Op-stack mirror bit-identical over 20,000 samples, 0 box-verdict violations. LayoutOrderIndependence green. Build clean, 19 succeeded / 0 warnings / 0 failed.

feat(strate): passages aim at open space -- for half the archetypes, measurably
Tier 1. GeneratePassages placed every passage at a random angle, distance and reach, never consulting the destination strate. The carved tube is air by construction, so nothing looked wrong -- but whether the lower mouth joined the destination's connected cave space was luck. A player could descend and arrive in a sealed pocket. The primordial law was a hope. VF_SuggestOpenPointZ is a pure free function of (archetype, params, seed, XY): no operator stack, no StrateManager, no cache. That is deliberate. This runs inside Initialize, where the layout is half-built and LayoutVersion is in flight, so anything holding a manager pointer there is a re-entrancy trap. Coverage is four archetypes of eight, and the number is the deliverable: 7 passages, 3 aimed at generator-confirmed open space with 48/48 ring samples air, 4 falling back. The hole is not closed. It is measured, where this morning it was invisible. Two corrections from Codex, both mine and both would have shipped confident nonsense: room placement is seeded by MakeStrateSeed, not the passage salt, so my version would have queried a cave graph that does not exist; and slabs need the world seed because that is what GetSlabDensity uses. And one of mine caught in review: the first test sampled GetDensityAt at the mouth and asserted air, which is true by construction because the passage carve is a structural-post invariant. It could not fail. Replaced with a 16-point ring outside the carve radius requiring 8/16 air -- a proxy for connectivity, not a proof. The proof is a flood fill, which is Tier 2. Logging: my first spec asked for a per-passage warning on fallback. It fired 572 times and turned 14 clean tests yellow, which is precisely the anti-pattern OPSTACK-HANDOFF.md warns about -- a warning that always means "this is fine" teaches people to ignore warnings. Now one sorted Log line per layout build. Built clean, suite green: 17 succeeded, 0 with warnings, 0 failed.

feat(strate): the layout is a set, not a sequence -- and the suite is green
Tier 0. Reordering Settings->StratePool in the editor used to change every world in the game, because Initialize Fisher-Yates shuffled the array in editor order. The pool is now sorted by stable soft-asset path before the shuffle, so the layout is a pure function of (seed, pool contents as a SET). The selection algorithm itself is untouched -- same Fisher-Yates, same cycling, same FixedStrates handling, same Z ranges. Sorting by pointer would have looked right and been load-order dependent, which is the trap here. GeneratePassages walked one sequential FRandomStream across every strate, so changing an early connection count shifted every later passage. Each draw is now a salted VoxelHash of (seed, boundary index, connection index), with the distributions preserved exactly -- ToFloat01 returns [0,1), so Lerp(Min,Max,t) reproduces FRandRange precisely. Codex implemented it and caught a real flaw in my spec: I asked for a test that permutes the pool and asserts the passages match, but once the layout is order-independent that test cannot fail whether or not the passage fix works -- the layout comes out identical, so even the old sequential stream would agree. It added the perturbation that actually bites: change an early connection count and verify every later boundary keeps its own values. It also contradicted me on passage type being randomly drawn. It isn't, and it preserved that. Built VoxelMEditor clean, then ran the suite headless: 16 succeeded, 0 failed, 0 not run. That also closes the thread OPSTACK-HANDOFF.md left open -- |

fix(generator): key CP cache by world owner
Function-static thread_local CP state previously trusted only chunk coordinates and each manager's locally-reused layout version, allowing a worker to carry params, biome context, CP_UseOpStack, and the built stack into another world. Allocate each generator a monotonic owner ID and add one uint64 comparison to the hot key. This intentionally fixes only the proved CP_* path; other TLS caches remain outside this change. |

feat: port FloatingIslands — the stack that runs backwards
6 of 8 archetypes ported. This one starts from VOID and FILLS where the other four start from ROCK and CARVE, which is what it was worth doing: neither end of the pile needed a new operator, only the opposite sign. FConstantRockSource -> FConstantFieldSource(+/-Base) AllSolid <-> AllAir FSdfCarveOp -> FSdfConvertOp(Sign = +/-1) carve <-> fill FSdfRoughnessMod 4th archetype, unchanged Only the island blob source is new. Multiplying by +/-1 is exact in IEEE-754, so the three already-green ports are bit-for-bit untouched. ClassifyBox can return AllAir for the first time in the plugin, and an island strate is by construction mostly empty — the test counts AllSolid and AllAir separately so an aggregate cannot hide whether that fired. Two bounds that would have been holes if assumed rather than derived: the island bound is one-sided (a hairline thread of matter hangs below each island down its axis, so only the TOP may reject), and the domain warp displaces X and Y independently, so the pad needs WarpAmp*sqrt(2). Also: AUDIT C1 was NOT closed. The 2026-07-27 sweep matched `SeedF * K` and this archetype's warp spells it `(float)S * K`, so one site survived — at seed 2e9 the warp flattens and every island snaps back to a perfect circle. Fixed in both paths in one pass so the equivalence test stays a valid oracle. Expect island silhouettes to change at large seeds. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

docs: Q3 tick the stale PENDING BUILD markers + CODEMAP rows for the new symbols
Q3: fable-idea F20 phases 1/2 and F18, REVIEW_FINDINGS perf pass 2 and batch 3, and ARCHITECTURE's biome full-param redesign were all still carrying "CODE-COMPLETE, PENDING BUILD" markers dated 07-04/-06/-08. Jahni confirmed on 2026-07-26 that everything is built and working (AUDIT-2026-07.md §0), so the documents were misreporting project state. Ticked with the date they were ticked, not just the date they were built. Deliberately NOT ticked: ARCHITECTURE's F6 master material graph. Its C++ half is built, but the material graph itself is editor-side work that is genuinely still open, and ticking it would recreate the problem this queue item fixes. CODEMAP discipline for this batch: new §3.2b (the VoxelDensityOp contract), new §3.12 (Private/Tests), the EVoxelTileClass move into §3.2, and FChunkBiomeCache::Invalidate under the biome types row.
