 ## Current Project State
 Check active work: `pql ticket list --status in_progress`
 Check your tickets: `pql ticket list --assigned dudley`
 
 ## Status
-STANDBY. This briefing will be populated when backend/engine implementation begins. Dudley activates when simulation implementation work is assigned.
+ACTIVE. The Rust/bevy_ecs simulation server (`server/`) is the project's most
+active implementation workstream — the Phase-4 world-generation cascade (D-166,
+D-243) runs through it. Dudley is the default implementer for server batches
+selected by `/whats-next`; recent work includes the Layer-5 tile fill and the
+D-253 region transient model (PR #174). Build/test via the top-level Makefile;
+the pre-push gate runs fmt/clippy/full cargo test on every push.
