research: Floating Islands planned around fixed tunnels (L140, 0/16; kept as patch)

Native FI binds and its own route/clearance/mouth-support checks pass on seeds 0 and 10, but 14/16 seeds have no
island arrangement that clears the fixed passage tubes and reaches both mouth heights; seed 10 has one composed
collision; ripple 6-7 cm vs the 3.5 cm limit on both upper passages. Third failure of the 'islands adapt to fixed
tunnels' premise (L133 x2, L140).

+### 8.56 Native Vertical Shafts graph field — World Assembler M3 L139
+
+Vertical Shafts uses the same `PlanResolvedCavernNetworkV1` and `Core.Caves.PrimitiveField` as
+Tunnel Network. There is no separate shaft planner. The existing room/tunnel shapes do not express
+a capped bore spanning the strate height, so the shared cave field gains a shaft-cylinder record
+kind; resolved records then add access tunnels, shaft cross-connects, and internal ledges.
+`Core.Lattice.PrimitiveField` is not used: its L58 VerticalShafts route read as a corkscrew, so it
+does not satisfy this archetype's open-shaft identity.
+
+The basal owner strate has an arrival mouth from passage 2–3 and deliberately has no departure
+mouth. Here the primordial law's route is the arrival mouth to a walkable terminal landing above the
+bedrock seal. The shared planner extends its walk-only spine to that terminal with the same grade
+limit used for a two-mouth cave; it does not invent a second passage. Route landings and connectors
+are built as part of the graph. Shaft bores and their ledges are a separate exploration tier: an
+open vertical drop or a climb between ledges is not walk-only traversal. Climb and mine remain
+reporting tiers; they never relax the walk-only guarantee.
+
+`FVerticalShaftParams` mapping:
+
+| Field | Core behavior |
+|---|---|
+| `ShaftSpacing` | Planner room spacing, converting owner voxels to integer micrometres. |
+| `ShaftDensity` | `roomDensityQ16`; seeds shaft placement, with the route's initial shaft guaranteed when nonzero. |
+| `ShaftMinRadius`, `ShaftMaxRadius` | Minimum and maximum shaft radii. |
+| `CrossConnectChance` | `tunnelDensityQ16` for cross-shaft links; generic cave branches are disabled in shaft mode. |
+| `ConnectorRadius` | Fixed minimum/maximum radius for access and connector bores. |
+| `LedgeSpacing`, `LedgeDepth` | Shaft shelf spacing and intrusion depth; zero spacing disables ledges, while zero depth leaves them nonintrusive. |
+| `SurfaceRoughness` | Shaft-wall roughness amplitude. Frequency is derived as `max(0.5 m, 4 owner voxels)` because the legacy params have no frequency field. |
+| `BoundarySealThickness`, `BaseDensity` | Continue to feed the resolved top and basal boundary bands through `sealAndDensity`, not the planner settings. |
+
+L139 increments `WorldAssemblyEvaluatorVersion` to 237 and extends the versioned cavern graph
+vocabulary for shaft cylinders. The fast-tier dispatch report binds S3 to
+`Core.Caves.PrimitiveField` / `Caves-native`. The 16-seed composed acceptance gate is not green:
+seed 2 fails the passage-shell audit at the incoming mouth. Three geometry variants failed that
+same gate, so the remaining issue is recorded for a new design premise rather than another local
+patch. L139 does not claim promoted shaft generation; its L80 run is recorded as characterization
+of the current worktree. See
+[`Standalone/Research/WorldAssemblerM3/Linux139/REPORT.md`](Standalone/Research/WorldAssemblerM3/Linux139/REPORT.md).

+- **Core:** evaluator version **237** in the L139 worktree. Unreal's `AVoxelWorld::bUseVoxelForgeCore` remains opt-in and defaults to `false`; the legacy generator remains the default runtime path. [Core version](Standalone/Core/include/VoxelForgeCore/VoxelForgeCore.h), [runtime switch](Source/VoxelForge/Public/VoxelWorld.h), [L139 report](Standalone/Research/WorldAssemblerM3/Linux139/REPORT.md).
-- **Verified owner4 generator dispatch (L132):** SW binds `SurfaceWorld-native` because the owner export contains a matching `SurfaceWorld.Heightfield2D` v2 plan. FI binds `compiled-analytic/FloatingIslands` because its `FloatingIslands.ClusterField` v0 layout has no matching native island plan. TN and VS bind `compiled-analytic/TunnelNetwork` and `compiled-analytic/VerticalShafts`; their legacy recipe IDs provide neither a `NativeCaves`/`NativeLattice` graph recipe nor native field capability. The L132 fast-tier report prints the binding and generated tile-center share at each owner strate.

+- **Verified owner4 generator dispatch:** S0 SurfaceWorld binds `SurfaceWorld-native`; S1 FloatingIslands remains `compiled-analytic/FloatingIslands`; S2 TunnelNetwork binds `Core.Caves.PrimitiveField`; and the L139 fast-tier report binds S3 VerticalShafts to `Core.Caves.PrimitiveField` / `Caves-native`. This proves dispatch, not the full shaft gate: the composed 16-seed sweep fails the passage-shell audit at seed 2. [Dispatch](Standalone/Core/src/ShapeWorldInternal.h), [adapter recipe checks](Standalone/Core/include/VoxelForgeCore/VoxelForgeCore.h), [L139 report](Standalone/Research/WorldAssemblerM3/Linux139/REPORT.md).
 - **Passages:** continuous smooth swept tubes with a continuous floor profile. L125 stamps conservative route slabs and outside sentinels into the tile cache; exact route geometry is still evaluated. All 21,425 route samples passed the open-air walk check; the nine-station floor probe's maximum root offset was 7.884 mm. L130 sets the shared influence reach to **1.0533 m** (0.75 m shell + 0.21 m relief + 0.50 m smooth-max support / 6 + 0.01 m margin), converted once from metres to Core voxels for the proof, feature, fallback, and off-grid bounds. [L125](Standalone/Research/WorldAssemblerM3/Linux125/REPORT.md), [L130](Standalone/Research/WorldAssemblerM3/Linux130/REPORT.md).
 - **Streaming:** arrival uses a bounded startup apply burst: `voxel.StreamingStartupApplyBoost=1` by default, up to 24 visible meshes or 14 ms per frame for at most 30 seconds, until the initial desired set and walkable ring are ready. `voxel.StreamingFarApplySupplement=1` is also default-on: after the normal visible apply cap, at most one far result applies when under half the apply-time budget; it is inactive during the startup burst. Dynamic near reserve defaults on; coarse-first remains off; the legacy pending-result cap defaults off. The far-apply lane is Unreal-only. [CVar source](Source/VoxelForge/Private/VoxelWorld.cpp), [L121 report](Standalone/Research/WorldAssemblerM3/Linux121/REPORT.md), [architecture](ARCHITECTURE.md).
-- **Determinism:** proven on Linux with Clang and GCC at W1/W8/W12. L131's unchanged-output comparison covers owner4's SW/FI/TN/VS views in 24 compiler/worker cases; the canonical owner4/owner2 recipe matrix also passes. Windows determinism is unverified.

+# Linux134 — Tunnel Network cave planner
+
+`TunnelNetwork` dispatches native `Core.Caves.PrimitiveField` v1. Seed 0 is strict-valid: 30 compound rooms, 72 room primitives, 31 edges, 3 branches, and a destination chamber. Its 27-point backbone spans 400.620 m horizontally with a 59.021 m floor change and an 8.381° maximum grade.
+
+Design 4 gives backbone rooms and edges one continuous floor profile `h(s)`. Edge curves follow that profile; each room primitive is placed at its own profiled floor. Side branches keep independent flat floors. Overlap backing is capped at the lower floor. This removes the descending-joint capsule blockage. The incoming passage remains fully open: 21,425/21,425 samples.
+
+The final-source fast tier passes in 370.8 s, including owner passage, shell, floor, ripple and negative-control audits. The default composed route audit passes: 0 blocked, 0 unsupported, 0 grade failures across 51,975 cave-route capsule samples; blocked-route controls detect their controls. The tile seam audit also passes (4 pairs, 4,900 shared samples, 0 mismatches).
+
+Seed 2's cave route passes independently (0 blocked, 0 unsupported, 0 grade failures), but its full composed audit still fails at `passage/1-2/0`: 22 unsupported samples, first at `(15.153, 5.830, -754.680) m`. Seed 1's cave route has 24 blocked samples at the arrival mouth, beginning near `(8.380, -12.618, -864.420) m` on `passage/2-3/0`. Explicit seeds 0 and 3 produce no sweepable route candidates. The default seed is the only fully green composed audit among these runs.
+
+Clang and GCC W1/W8/W12 match all 13 pipeline hash lines at the cave camera; each route audit passes. Seven legacy/planner cutaway pairs cover the arrival room, two backbone rooms, two tunnels, destination chamber, and departure room. All planner views render; several legacy cutaways show sparse geometry. Review them in `Saved/Linux/l134/captures/COMPARE.html`.
+
+L80 timing used five interleaved samples per binary at W8/W12. Values below are the planner median change versus `assembler/world`; each cell is whole-view ready / LOD0–2 ready.
+
+| Strate | W8 | W12 |
+|---|---:|---:|
+| 0 | -0.70% / +1.52% | +0.97% / +3.50% |
+| 1 | +3.81% / +8.38% | +2.41% / +6.19% |
+| 2 | +3.38% / +12.90% | +3.98% / +10.26% |
+| 3 | +7.97% / +13.54% | +1.93% / +7.67% |
+
+The VFHost Linux Development build succeeds with `-NoUBA -MaxParallelActions=4`. Final Clang/GCC source stamp: `f3b69ea0ce186c855643702a88e0d0732c81c18ec93c17d1824c25210e6408a3`. Canonical owner hashes are pinned at v230.
+
+Logs and timing data are under `Saved/Linux/l134`; the timing summary is `timing/v230-summary.json`, the final fast log is `verify-fast-final-source.log`, and the host build log is `ubt.log`.
+
+The separate legacy `--audit-native-caves` signature check still fails its mouth offset (it expects 1.00 m; the route contract is 1.13 m) and ripple span (1.8878 m against its 1.25 m cap). Its center-air, floor-solid, and shell probes pass; the composed owner route audit above is green.

+# Linux135 — Tunnel Network planner
+
+Source v236 (`8dc4294ce0250a591ee4515471c3c547e796ffa4346ab44f0ae1740bbc3797f5`) on `wip/l134-cave-planner`.
+
+## Route audits
+
+Seeds 0–15 pass the composed passage, seam, shell, naturalness, mouth-profile, ripple, and blocked-route controls (16/16). The negative control still detects all three blocked routes. No audit threshold changed.
+
+The mouth joint now takes its floor/profile from the resolved mouth geometry and carries that shared profile into the planner's first and last edges. This fixes seed 1's blocked arrival and seed 2's unsupported arrival. For seeds 0 and 3, the first 648 regular route candidates exceeded the grade bound; the bounded deterministic fallback finds a route. “No sweepable route candidates” was a planner search miss, not an empty cave.
+
+## Cost
+
+L80 medians are near-ready / whole-view percent deltas. The serialized 144-run matrix started at load 0.81 / 98.4% CPU idle. Each cell gives `assembler/world` first, then exact L134 (`a3c8e36`).
+
+| Layer | W8 | W12 |
+|---|---:|---:|
+| 0 | +3.88 / +0.27%; +1.79 / -0.21% | +8.22 / +4.09%; +3.89 / +2.49% |
+| 1 | +8.82 / +4.96%; +4.14 / +1.71% | +11.83 / +5.35%; +4.10 / +2.09% |
+| 2 | +13.33 / +3.77%; +2.34 / -0.09% | +12.56 / +5.20%; +1.40 / +0.61% |
+| 3 | +13.65 / +3.99%; -0.25 / +0.44% | +12.71 / +5.14%; +2.97 / +2.12% |
+
+The two speed changes were bounded cave AABBs with a 1 mm float guard, and normalized edge-BVH bounds with one normalization per sample. This improves on L134, but misses the `assembler/world` target: near-ready remains 3.88–13.65% slower. Layers 1–3 overlap the native cave volume and spend time on roughly 4.95–5.76 million near-LOD cave samples per view; layer 0 has none at LOD0–3 and is still up 3.88% at W8, showing some generic composer/classification cost as well.
+
+Planning is about 3.75–4.19 ms per view (cavern planning 0.46–0.49 ms). At LOD0–3, room/edge candidates average 0.39/0.23 per composer tile on layer 1, 0.47/0.27 on layer 2, and 0.06/0.04 on layer 3. Tile proofs skip work at LOD0–3; measured cave views have no tile skips at LOD4–8. The reported 180–320 ns density-call estimate includes all shape fields, not cave-only time. Profile: `Saved/Linux/l135/profile-summary-speed2.json`.
+
+## Gates and pictures
+
+Fast tier passes in 301.7 s. Clang and GCC each match 13 hash lines at W1/W8/W12. Route seams and the negative controls pass; canonical baselines are v236. The post-timing VFHost Linux Development build succeeds: 27/27 actions, 77.70 s, using `-NoUBA -MaxParallelActions=4`.
+
+The seven-view gallery has four planner views at the planned floor plus 1.6 m and three legacy views at legacy coordinates. Open `captures/COMPARE.html`; camera coordinates and renderer settings are in `captures/capture-index.json`.
+
+Sweep: `Saved/Linux/l135/optimized-seed-sweep.json`. Timing: `Saved/Linux/l135/timing/summary.json`. Determinism: `Saved/Linux/l135/determinism-summary.json`. Host build log: `Saved/Linux/l135/ubt-l135-console.log`.

+# Linux136 — cave planner speed
+
+Source stamp `ebe6b32a7cd96c5aa69c6dc64ae6b9c6ff4bc18bc484efc5148611c48723c28f` (v239; v236 is commit `2d89023`).
+
+## Findings
+
+The tile query now keeps sorted passage IDs with route candidates, so the composer skips unrelated routes. A route-free tile returns before per-sample coordinate and scale math. Native cave evaluation also returns the exact host-rock value when its conservative tile feature list is empty. These paths preserve v236 output; no version bump was needed.
+
+The LOD0–2 census shows the shared composer does substantial work outside Tunnel Network. Surface World has zero native cave samples at LOD0–3, yet near-ready passage visits are 19.61M on both `assembler/world` and v236. The route-ID path reduces that count to 3.20M, but cumulative near-ready composer worker time stays around 3.5 s (3.42 s baseline, 3.51 s v236, 3.52 s v239). Whole-view classification worker time is 584 ms / 641 ms / 623 ms. Planning is about 4 ms. This rules out cave evaluation and planning as the Surface World regression, but the census does not isolate mouth-profile checks from the other shared composer/classifier work.
+
+Floating Islands and Vertical Shafts have unrelated-route churn: v236 adds 7.79M and 8.43M passage visits over baseline. v239 brings those totals to 7.89M and 2.54M, and reduces composer worker time by about 9% and 8% versus v236. Tunnel Network falls from 34.63M visits in v236 to 7.47M; its composer worker time returns to baseline. The views still process about 4.7–5.4M native cave samples. The attempted LOD4–8 cave tile proofs produced no skips: every cave-view tile at those LODs remained unclassified.
+
+## L80 timing
+
+Five interleaved measured runs per version and cell, one warmup per version. The pre-run gate was load 0.74 and 99.3% CPU idle. Cells show near-ready and whole-view median deltas versus `assembler/world`, in W8/W12 order; the last column shows near-ready deltas versus v236.
+
+| Stratum | Near-ready Δ | Whole-view Δ | Near-ready Δ vs v236 |
+|---|---:|---:|---:|
+| Surface World (0) | +4.29% / +5.78% | +2.45% / −0.17% | +0.52% / −1.99% |
+| Floating Islands (1) | +8.88% / +5.48% | +1.31% / −0.48% | −2.40% / −4.29% |
+| Tunnel Network (2) | +8.23% / +8.26% | +0.35% / +0.88% | −3.51% / −3.97% |
+| Vertical Shafts (3) | +13.29% / +6.36% | +1.26% / −1.97% | −4.22% / −3.81% |
+
+v239 improves on v236 in seven of eight near-ready cells, but misses the requested ≤+3% target in all eight cells versus `assembler/world`. Whole-view deltas stay within +2.45%/−1.97%.
+
+## Gates
+
+- Fast tier: PASS, 289.9 s.
+- Composed passage, seam, shell, mouth, ripple, naturalness, and blocked-route audits: 16/16 seeds PASS.
+- Clang and GCC at W1/W8/W12: all six runs match 13 hash lines.
+- Linux VFHostEditor Development: PASS, 5/5 actions in 41.33 s with `-NoUBA -MaxParallelActions=4`; no `prlimit`.

+## Measurement
+
+Two `assembler/world` binaries had identical SHA-256. On Surface World, their L80 near-ready medians differed by +0.52% at W8 and −0.59% at W12. The no-op v228 control differed by −0.37% and −0.05%; its stream hashes matched v227. Use ±1% as the median noise floor. Individual paired controls varied by up to about 2.5% (3.6% for one no-op pair).
+
+The three-run L77 profile sampled LOD 0–8 with no lost samples. Function share changes, `HEAD` versus `assembler/world`: `CachedColumn` +0.93 pp, shared column `TryRead` +0.58 pp, `prepareSweptTubeBase` +0.38 pp, and `sweptSample` +0.17 pp. `ApplyResolvedStratePassageCarves` fell by 0.97 pp and `FindBoundStratumForManagerZ` by 0.39 pp. The profile points more toward column-cache work and the sweep lookup than mouth-profile work; it does not isolate one cause for every world.
+
+Changes retained: removed the unused `floorShellSignedDistance` sample field; removed per-lookup shared-pointer refcounting and batched diagnostic counters per query scope.
+
+## L80 near-ready medians
+
+Each delta is candidate versus `assembler/world`; the A/A median noise floor is ±1%.
+
+| World | W8 delta | W12 delta |
+|---|---:|---:|
+| Surface World | +3.58% (±1%) | +2.90% (±1%) |
+| Floating Islands | +0.19% (±1%) | +2.20% (±1%) |
+| Tunnel Network | −3.60% (±1%) | +6.84% (±1%) |
+| Vertical Shafts | +4.31% (±1%) | +3.96% (±1%) |
+
+The requested targets are not met except Floating Islands W8 and Tunnel Network W8. Whole-view medians were within −8.39% to +0.27% of baseline.
+
+## Verification
+
+Fast tier passed (273 checks); the composed sweep passed 16/16 seeds with seams and blocked controls; Clang/GCC W1/W8/W12 matched all 13 hashes. Linux UE host build passed with `-NoUBA -MaxParallelActions=4` and no `prlimit`. Output audits stayed green, so version and baselines were left unchanged. No commit, push, or stash.

+# Linux138 — final cave planner speed pass
+
+Source stamp: `9aade4e6cb33e86c36b89440644d9ef5d440288fb6ff0af03af128291c95f93f`.
+
+## Result
+
+The suspected column-cache regression is not present in the measured counters. Calls and formula evaluations per tile match `assembler/world`; the small miss deltas change sign between W8 and W12. The L77 `CachedColumn` and shared `TryRead` increases were normalized sample-share changes, not evidence of more cache calls.
+
+I removed repeated route identity checks and added a fast path for prepared sweep samples that are stamped outside all passage influence. The path preserves the sample's flat distance in the union and skips wall/floor shell work whose bounds are positive. The speed bar is still missed on several near-ready cells, especially Vertical Shafts. No version bump or baseline update was needed: output audits remained green.
+
+## Before-change cache census
+
+Means per near-ready LOD0–2 tile, averaged across the five measured L137 L80 runs per worker count. Each cell is `assembler/world / L137 candidate`.
+
+| Stratum / workers | Point calls | Local hits | Local misses | Shared hits | Formula evaluations |
+|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|
+| Surface World / W8 | 6529.395 / 6529.396 | 5712.251 / 5720.303 | 817.144 / 809.092 | 570.207 / 562.158 | 246.937 / 246.934 |
+| Surface World / W12 | 6529.395 / 6529.396 | 5642.386 / 5641.558 | 887.009 / 887.838 | 639.976 / 640.851 | 247.033 / 246.987 |
+
+Floating Islands, Tunnel Network, and Vertical Shafts had zero generic heightfield column calls and cache hits/misses per near-ready tile in both binaries. Floating Islands' separate local/shared cache counters were also zero in its profiled LOD0–2 tiles. The shared `TryRead` path is reached on local misses: W8 had about 8 fewer misses per tile on the candidate, while W12 had 0.83 more. Cache code, key, and window are unchanged versus `assembler/world` in `WorldAssemblerInternal.h`, `SharedColumnCache.h`, and `FloatingIslandsInternal.h`.
+
+L77 reports each function's share of sampled worker ticks. A higher share can result when other work takes a smaller share; it is not a cache-call counter. The before-change census is in `Saved/Linux/l138/prechange/column-cache-counts.json`; the separate Floating Islands counters are in `Saved/Linux/l138/prechange/island-cache/summary.json`.
+
+## Change and timing
+
+`ShapeWorldInternal.h` now reuses the already-computed Tunnel Network stratum predicate in the passage loop. For a swept sample with no exact contribution, it adds the same flat outside distance to the union, then skips relief, mouth, wall, and shell calculations. The influence bound is 1.053 m (0.75 m shell + 0.21 m relief + 0.083 m corner support + 0.01 m guard); the stamped sentinel is one subvoxel beyond it.
+
+Final L80 used one warm-up and five interleaved runs per binary, at W8/W12 across all four strata. The quiet-host gate passed at load 1.34 and 98.9% CPU idle. Deltas are candidate medians versus `assembler/world`; the L137 A/A noise floor is ±1%.
+
+| Stratum | Near-ready W8 / W12 | Whole-view W8 / W12 |
+|---|---:|---:|
+| Surface World | +0.34% / +1.72% | −0.48% / −0.93% |
+| Floating Islands | −4.34% / +2.87% | −3.11% / −1.50% |
+| Tunnel Network | −2.54% / +2.86% | −3.96% / −1.73% |
+| Vertical Shafts | +4.66% / +3.25% | −1.73% / −2.06% |
+
+Only Surface World W8 is within ±1% near-ready. The per-LOD worker totals show LOD2 down 24–39% on Floating Islands, Tunnel Network, and Vertical Shafts, but Vertical Shafts LOD0/1 are up 5–22%; that remaining work keeps its near-ready medians outside the bar. Tunnel Network W8 is the closest of its two near-ready cells.
+
+## Checks
+
+- Fast tier: PASS, 273 checks, 286.0 s.
+- Composed sweep: PASS, 16/16 seeds, with passage, seam, shell, mouth-profile, naturalness, ripple, and blocked-route controls.
+- Clang/GCC W1/W8/W12: PASS, all 13 determinism hash lines match.
+- Linux `VFHostEditor` Development: PASS, 5 actions, 38.19 s with `-NoUBA -MaxParallelActions=4`; no `prlimit`.
+- The full verification tier and Windows UE build were not run. No Unreal `Source/` files changed.
+
+The first fast-tier invocation used the verifier's default `l42` output directory and refused its stale binary. I reran it with `--out Saved/Linux/l138`; the final-source run passed.
+
+Build, fast-tier, seed, determinism, cache-census, and timing logs are under `Saved/Linux/l138/`; the final timing matrix is `Saved/Linux/l138/timing/summary.json`. Changes are uncommitted.

+# Linux139 — Vertical Shafts on the Core planner
+
+## Result
+
+S3 now reports `Core.Caves.PrimitiveField` / `Caves-native`, using the shared Tunnel Network
+planner. The composed acceptance gate is not green: **15/16 seeds pass; seed 2 fails the passage
+shell and tile seam checks at the arrival from passage 2–3.** This worktree is not promoted as an
+accepted Vertical Shafts generator.
+
+The basal primordial route law means arrival passage 2–3 to a walkable terminal landing above the
+bedrock seal. There is no departure mouth at the bottom of the owner world. The shared planner
+builds that walk-only spine, its access tunnels, and landings within the existing grade contract.
+The full-height open shafts and their ledges are an exploration tier: a drop or climb is not
+walk-only traversal, and climb or mine access stays in the reporting tiers. `Core.Lattice` was not
+used because L58's VerticalShafts lattice route looked like a corkscrew, not an open shaft.
+
+## Plan and parameter mapping
+
+`PlanResolvedCavernNetworkV1` is reused without a planner fork. `Core.Caves.PrimitiveField` is the
+shared evaluator, extended with `shapeKind=1`: the existing room/tunnel shapes do not represent a
+capped, full-height vertical bore, and the L58 lattice route was a corkscrew. Shaft records use
+that cylinder primitive with ledges, short access bores, and cross-shaft links. Generic cave
+branches are disabled in shaft mode.
+
+| `FVerticalShaftParams` field(s) | Core setting |
+|---|---|
+| `ShaftSpacing` | Shared planner room spacing; owner voxels convert to integer micrometres. |
+| `ShaftDensity` | `roomDensityQ16`, controlling shaft placement; a nonzero setting guarantees the route's initial shaft. |
+| `ShaftMinRadius`, `ShaftMaxRadius` | Minimum and maximum shaft radii. |
+| `CrossConnectChance` | `tunnelDensityQ16` for links between shafts. |
+| `ConnectorRadius` | Equal minimum/maximum radius for access and connector bores. |
+| `LedgeSpacing`, `LedgeDepth` | Vertical shelf interval and intrusion; zero spacing disables shelves and zero depth makes them nonintrusive. |
+| `SurfaceRoughness` | Roughness amplitude; frequency derives as `max(0.5 m, 4 owner voxels)` because no frequency field exists. |
+| `BoundarySealThickness`, `BaseDensity` | Existing resolved top/basal boundary bands via `sealAndDensity`, outside planner settings. |
+
+## Measurements
+
+The final source stamp was `b8603b6cb3975ca0f9669759e4e2464561c557fdb7aa6836acef123ecf0b99d1`.
+The composed sweep covered seeds 0–15 with one run per seed (reported process time 320.485 s in
+total; individual runs 10.296–34.015 s). Seeds 0, 1, and 3–15 passed passages, route, seams, shell,
+and blocked-route controls. Seed 2's route grades/support, naturalness, mouth profile, ripple,
+dispatch, and negative controls passed; its composed passage, seam, and shell summaries failed.
+The shell audit reported eight `wall_missing` samples on `passage/2-3/0`, at route stations
+489.627–490.321 m. The final log records positive native density at those samples and negative
+wall-shell margins. See `Saved/Linux/l139/seeds/seed2-final.log` and
+`Saved/Linux/l139/seeds/summary.json`.
+
+Three geometry variants were tried against this same shell gate: starting passage clearance at
+12 m, adding a guarded cubic lateral bow, and starting clearance at 8 m. The first and third still
+failed wall checks; the bow failed floor checks. Per the three-failure stop rule, these were
+discarded. The final binary retains the successful Q16 endpoint-normalization correction needed
+for seed 1 and no seed-2 geometry patch.
+
+L80 ran after the seed sweep. The host gate was **load 1.31, CPU idle 99.4%**. It used one warm-up
+per build and stratum/worker cell, then five interleaved measured runs for each of three builds at
+W8 and W12 across all four strata: 120 measured runs total. Comparisons use `fa4417a`,
+`assembler/world`, and the L139 binary; the established L137 A/A noise floor is ±1% ([A/A report](../Linux137/REPORT.md)).
+Times are medians in seconds; deltas are L139 relative to each comparison build. Paired values in
+each cell are W8 / W12.
+
+| Stratum | LOD0–2 L139 | Δ vs `fa4417a` | Δ vs `assembler/world` | Whole-view L139 | Δ vs `fa4417a` | Δ vs `assembler/world` |
+|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|
+| S0 Surface World | 0.838 / 0.886 | +1.71% / +3.97% | +2.92% / +5.06% | 1.862 / 1.804 | +2.42% / +1.63% | −0.11% / −0.33% |
+| S1 Floating Islands | 1.036 / 1.038 | +4.72% / +4.61% | +2.09% / +5.35% | 1.842 / 1.830 | +0.11% / +1.16% | −6.73% / −1.24% |
+| S2 Tunnel Network | 1.105 / 1.078 | +2.44% / +3.07% | +3.57% / +7.57% | 1.876 / 1.808 | −1.11% / +0.00% | −4.33% / −1.15% |
+| S3 Vertical Shafts | 0.899 / 0.884 | −3.81% / −0.94% | −0.95% / +2.00% | 1.706 / 1.657 | −6.57% / −2.53% | −6.21% / −4.77% |
+
+Whole-view medians are numerically lower than `assembler/world` in all eight cells; the S0 W8 and
+W12 differences are within the ±1% noise floor. Seven of eight LOD0–2 cells are slower than
+`assembler/world`; the remaining cell is within the noise floor. This is characterization of an
+unaccepted build, not a promotion claim. Raw runs and medians are in
+`Saved/Linux/l139/timing/summary.json`.
+
+## Checks and captures
+
+- Fast tier: **PASS**, 284.0 s; the S3 dispatch line is `VerticalShafts` → `Core.Caves.PrimitiveField` v1 / `Caves-native` / `FCavesFieldAdapter`.
+- Clang and GCC determinism: **PASS**, W1/W8/W12 (six cases), 13 hash lines and resolved-layout identity matched. Both compilers built the final source stamp above.
+- Canonical v237 baselines added for Surface World and Floating Islands; both match their v236 values.
+- Five eye-height views were captured before and after: arrival mouth, shaft access landing, looking down, looking up from a ledge, and basal terminal landing. All five L139 views pass the existing quality threshold. Two L138 baseline views fail it: the old layer has no shaft at the selected site, so the down-shaft view is flat, and the upward view is low contrast. The threshold was not relaxed. Images and camera details are in `captures/`.
+- The outside views are `captures/after-whole-layer-density-cutaway.jpg` (coarse LOD density-mesh slice at y=−5 m) and `captures/after-whole-layer-side-elevation.svg` (resolved-plan projection that labels the walk route and all 53 shaft primitives). The cutaway passes the unchanged image-quality threshold; its plan companion makes the full shaft layout clearer.
+- Linux `VFHostEditor` Development build: **PASS**, 27 actions, 72.58 s, run after timing with `-NoUBA -MaxParallelActions=4` and no `prlimit`. It emitted three pre-existing deprecated RealtimeMesh API warnings from `VoxelWorld.cpp`; that file was not changed.
+- `git diff --check` and Python bytecode compilation of the L139 runners passed. Windows build and Windows determinism were not run.
+
+Logs and source-stamped binaries are under `Saved/Linux/l139/`. The only changed Unreal `Source/`
+file is `Source/VoxelForge/Private/VoxelForgeCoreAdapter.cpp`.
+
+## Remaining risk
+
+The passage shell and seam break at the incoming mouth on seed 2 remain unresolved. The local
+clearance/heading premise failed three geometry attempts; a new route-to-mouth design premise is
+needed before another geometry change. Walk-only connectivity stays guaranteed by construction;
+vertical drops, climbs, and mine access remain reporting tiers.

+# L140 — Floating Islands planned around passages
+
+**Not accepted: 0/16 composed seeds passed.** The new Core recipe reaches native S1 dispatch and meets its dedicated route, passage-clearance, and mouth-support checks on seeds 0 and 10. Seed 10 still has one blocked capsule in the composed owner route; both seeds fail the unchanged passage-ripple gate. Fourteen seeds cannot produce a corridor-aware plan.
+
+## Change
+
+Core evaluator version is 239 and Floating Islands geometry version is 10. The owner adapter resolves the fixed passage layout first, then plans nine native islands and a walk route around the 0–1 arrival and 1–2 departure tubes. The plan records route and island anchors in the resolved layout. The clearance check reserves the 1.053 m passage influence reach plus the 0.880 m capsule half-height and checks five support probes at each mouth. Shape composition preserves native landing support and passage shell distance for this recipe. Direct legacy recipe fixtures retain their earlier attach-before-layout order.
+
+S1 binds to `FloatingIslands-native` in the explicit Core owner mode. `bUseVoxelForgeCore` remains opt-in; the fast-tier default owner pose still reports the legacy analytic S1 path.
+
+## Composed sweep
+
+The final-source Clang run covered seeds 0–15. Results and per-seed logs are in [`summary.json`](../../../../Saved/Linux/l140/seeds/summary.json) and `Saved/Linux/l140/seeds/` (source stamp `6205e6c180ef32c41792dc3e0d8bf443a96df41974f40334af4bf3a157ab88da`).
+
+- **Seed 0:** the planner tried 11 detours; its 94.5 m route has 1.47 m conservative tube clearance. Native route audit: 128 points, 0 blocked capsule samples, 0 unsupported points, 0 grade failures. Passage check: 5,325 tube samples, 0 island conflicts, 676,275 route checks, 0 route conflicts, arrival and departure support 5/5, 2.824 m minimum excess clearance. The composed S1 route and seams pass. Ripple is 1/3: wall ripple is 6.85 cm on 0–1 and 7.10 cm on 1–2 against the unchanged 3.50 cm limit.
+- **Seed 10:** the native route and passage checks pass, with 5/5 mouth support and 0 isolated route conflicts. The composed S1 capsule audit finds one blocked sample at `(-6.246, -28.615, -737.982) m`, inside the resolved 0–1 passage; composed density is `-0.002062` while native island density is `+1.730469`. Ripple is again 1/3 (6.22 cm on 0–1 and 7.19 cm on 1–2). Seams and negative controls pass.
+- **Seeds 1, 2, 7, 8, 9, 12, 13, 15:** no candidate clears the tubes; best conservative clearances range from −5.994 m to −0.406 m. **Seeds 3, 5, 6, 14:** candidates clear the tubes but the supported island profile cannot reach both fixed mouth heights. **Seeds 4 and 11:** candidate islands escape the sealed vertical layout.
+
+The dedicated gate is therefore 0/16. No geometry variant was attempted after these results. The repeated 0–1/1–2 ripple failure is also consistent with L67's closed authored-radius experiment: it measured 7.27 cm on 1–2 against the same 3.50 cm limit ([L67 report](../../Linux67/REPORT.md)).
+
+## Other checks
+
+- **Fast tier:** PASS, 287.8 s; negative controls and existing worker-hash checks passed. It continues to verify the default legacy S1 dispatch.
+- **Determinism:** PASS, six runs (Clang/GCC × W1/W8/W12). All produced the same 512-tile density, mesh, payload, topology, material, and exact-query hashes, with layout identity `resolved-layout-v3-fnv64:08da20d55ff6820f`. Native recipe hash: `0b6a23bc73a3b867`. See the [baseline](baselines/native-owner-fi-seed0.json) and [`summary.json`](../../../../Saved/Linux/l140/determinism/summary.json).
+- **Captures:** ten before/after JPEGs passed the existing image-quality gate. The [manifest](captures/manifest.json) records eye-height arrival, island edge, route between islands, departure, and wide silhouette views for both versions. See [before](captures/before-arrival-mouth.jpg), [before edge](captures/before-island-edge.jpg), [before route](captures/before-walk-between-islands.jpg), [before departure](captures/before-departure-mouth.jpg), [before wide](captures/before-wide-silhouette.jpg); [after](captures/after-arrival-mouth.jpg), [after edge](captures/after-island-edge.jpg), [after route](captures/after-walk-between-islands.jpg), [after departure](captures/after-departure-mouth.jpg), [after wide](captures/after-wide-silhouette.jpg).
+- **Linux VFHostEditor:** PASS in 73.58 s. Build log: [`ubt.log`](../../../../Saved/Linux/l140/ubt.log).
+- **L80 timing:** not completed. The machine gate passed (load 0.97, 2-second CPU idle 98.5%), but the candidate warm-up could not construct native S1 around the checked-in Unreal-exported passage layout: 0 detours, best clearance −3.509 m. No measured L80 pairs were recorded; the ±1% A/A floor remains the L137 reference. A separate 30-second setup probe with a regenerated seed-0 owner plan timed out during passage-route planning, so I did not run a mismatched or incomplete timing matrix.
+- `git diff --check`: PASS.
+
+## Remaining issues
+
+The fixed exported owner layout and many generated seeds leave no route-clear island arrangement. On seed 10, the native-only clearance check also misses a collision that the final composed owner route catches. Ripple remains above the existing limit on both upper passages. Native S1 is still opt-in and is not promoted by this round.
+
+Changed Unreal source: [`VoxelForgeCoreAdapter.cpp`](../../../../Source/VoxelForge/Private/VoxelForgeCoreAdapter.cpp). Windows compilation remains for the owner.
