The complete workshop record: four round-1 positions, five round-2 syntheses
(incl. Troblum's adversarial pass with addendum + final scorecard — all seven
findings resolved), both lead interviews, Qatux's round notes and the 8-section
workshop-outcomes.md (the lakes message-crossing documented as process
history), measurement ⑥ (set_pixel/c1) + the population-survey and chunk/S2
addenda in the measurement docs, the brief's appendix updated through ⑥, and
architecture-briefing-final.md — Jeroen's outline written back as-built
(six-level ladder, lakes, ~9MB resident global tier). README row: Complete.

Tyre C2: DownstreamTarget::OpenSpillway added — success (open low ground,
complete carved path) split from EdgeUnreachable (strict search exhaustion);
both doc comments exact; test updated. Tyre C3: determinism docstring
corrected (no BTreeMap; the endorheic f64 gate stated as deterministic-by-
derivation). Hoshe H1: vacuous cliff_edge test replaced by
single_basin_bowl_never_carves_a_gorge asserting the known-empty outcome.
Hoshe H2/H3: courses-force-empty disclosure at rect_window_replica and in
the results doc; courses.len() print added to the square production-fn
bench — measured 3/6/10 courses in window (NOT courses-empty, verified
twice); 'faithful stand-in' claim retracted for a precise scope statement;
GJ1c 18-course run identified as the sole production-density rate. Tyre C1:
appendix (4) headline rephrased — the tagged-envelope migration cannot be
dodged by payload optimization (byte math), field-count-rule trigger is a
workshop synthesis call; appendix (2) scope split per-shape.
Hydrology unit suite 15/15; atlas lib suite 679 green; benches compile.

Four results docs under docs/workshops/body-map-viewer/measurements/ and the
brief's measurement appendix rewritten from owners/effort to MEASURED
headlines: settled hydrology viable (~24 ms/body, 273 bodies ~0.8 s);
parallel derive throughput holds 330K-8.3M cells (~64 ms / ~1.8 s); block+tile
cost-cleared (deepest step 83K cells ~17 ms); PNG-per-field smallest and
fastest with the tagged-envelope migration foreclosed by byte math (21x the
ceiling at the smallest size); texture upload a non-issue (8.3M px ~3.2 ms,
L8 4-9x cheaper). All numbers post-date the background-load closure with
stability re-runs. The workshop round-1 gate is satisfied.

Three-way prep session (Jeroen + lead + Tyre) for the map-handler revision:
Jeroen's design outline captured verbatim, two clarification rounds, Tyre's
governance-delta/implications pass, brief co-written and ratified (zero
misrepresentations, zero blocking gaps), signed off by Jeroen with three edit
rounds (vocabulary repair tile->gridunit, client cache-store question with
SQLite fact base, explicit DQR/ticket deprecation sweep as gated deliverable).
Workshop: 5 seats (Dudley/Araminta/Stig/Tyre + Troblum r2), 2 rounds + lead
interview extendable at Jeroen's call, round 1 gated on measurements
T-1177/T-1178/T-1154/T-1179 (T-1180 non-gating). T-1176 in_progress with gate
blocker edges; T-1154 repurposed as measurement (3) and set ready.

Workshop -> decision provenance was prose-only. Adds a `decision_refs:` YAML
frontmatter list (the confirmed D-records each workshop-outcomes.md touches,
filtered against the governance decision set) to all 17 workshop outcomes; the two
that lacked frontmatter (commodity-catalog, system-economic-specialization) get a
minimal block. pql indexes the list and `SELECT fm.decision_refs` round-trips it, so
"which workshops touch D-NNN" is answerable via SELECT + filter or `pql search`.
decision_refs is a relevance signal (decisions a workshop discusses/produces), not a
strict authorship claim — historical bare refs aren't disambiguated. Generated wiki
read-only sections are left untouched.
Noted in pql-requirements #5: 1.6.2 has no working DSL operator for frontmatter
list-membership (`~`/`contains` error, `in` matches nothing), so membership queries
need a client-side filter for now.
Reproducible via tooling/pql-migrate/add_workshop_provenance.py (idempotent).

Review fixes for the #1016 cultural pass (Hoshe/Paula/Miri):
- Kruger 60 (GJ 860A) xhosa -> cosmopolitan (Miri): GTTR describes an
Afrikaner/Xhosa/Zulu founding "without mapping cleanly onto any of
them" — the textbook genuinely-fused case, which taxonomy rule 4
resolves to cosmopolitan rather than one of the three. Commented.
- Altmark (GJ 357) financial_technocratic -> cosmopolitan (Paula):
reverts to the original shipped value; the GTTR reads as commercial
non-alignment, not credential-based technocracy.
- Kampala Gate (GJ 667B) + Moyale (GJ 1292) keep swahili but add inline
comments documenting that these are East-African-INTERIOR founders
(Baganda; Kenyan/Ethiopian Borana-Oromo) for which the taxonomy has no
dedicated token — swahili is the nearest available, NULL would fall to
the wrong corridor default. Gap logged for a follow-up taxonomy value.
Mwangaza (693) swahili is literally correct (coastal) — untouched.
- heritage-taxonomy-draft.md: stale "(38)" subheadings -> "(47)" to match
the actual canonical count (Hoshe/Miri doc typo).
Retracted: Pedra Seca (GJ 421B) xhosa — reviewer thought it lacked
authored backing, but its gttr.md explicitly states "Afrikaans and Xhosa
heritage"; pin kept.

Review fixes for the #1019 heritage rebalance:
- Marib's farm world Ghouta -> Ghawr (Miri): "Ghouta" carries strong
modern associations (2013 Damascus attack); Ghawr (the Jordan Rift
Valley, an irrigated lowland farming region) keeps the water-fed-
drylands sense without the resonance.
- Add dominant_faction = "independent" to GJ 914A / 508A / 1245B (Hoshe)
— all five rebalanced systems are self-governing independent
communities; uniform with siblings GJ 722 / 680 and clears V-FAC-01.
- catalog.md: fill GJ 914A -> Marib and GJ 722 -> Sığınak (Hoshe) — the
two anchor systems still showed em-dash placeholders.
- Marib gttr: name the second aperture neighbour Sığınak instead of the
bare "GJ 722" (Miri).
Pre-existing Golestan aperture/spur wording (reviewers split on whether
it is even wrong) is left for a separate content pass — not introduced
by this rename.

The pre-execution conversion plan and shipped-state addendum for the
South-African heritage rebalance: per-system field maps, the worked
gttr rewrites, the cross-reference cleanup list, and the rationale for
keeping load-bearing mystery systems out of scope.

Reconciles the ~30 inconsistent heritage proposals from the 6-sector #1016
content pass into one canonical cultural_specialization heritage vocabulary
(47 values). Key reconciliations: norse_compact->nordic (un-fuses people from
faction), spanish_iberian+spanish_hispanic->spanish, brazilian_portuguese+
lusophone_frontier->brazilian, italian_northern->italian, afrikaans_cape->
afrikaans, french_provencal+french_canadian->french. No compound values; one
token per system (blends take dominant heritage or the cosmopolitan activity
value).
Maintainer decisions (2026-06-01): keep ALL values distinct (no lumping —
welsh/afro_brazilian/cape_malay/xhosa/luxembourgish/konkan all retained);
keep empty-but-complete slots (yoruba/hausa/hungarian/persian/turkic). Fills
the Middle-East gap the pass exposed: arab/persian/turkic added even at near-
zero current usage so the canon is complete.
Logs the southern-African overrepresentation (~25/300, afrikaans=15) as a DLC
content-rewrite rebalancing task (#1019) rather than lumping the taxonomy.
Migration note included: 4 already-shipped hero cultural values use old suffix
forms (afrikaans_cape, french_provencal, italian_northern, norse_compact) and
will be renamed in the culture-write pass when _CULTURAL_HERITAGE is replaced.

Three-round design workshop (Miri, Burnelli-Sheldon, Paula; documented by
Qatux, ticketed by SI) that produced D-237. Includes per-agent round
outputs, round notes, the independent scout critique, and the final
workshop-outcomes.md with the consolidated schema, 27-value economic
vocabulary, cultural + faction vocabularies, deterministic-varied fallback
spec, must-pin table, and CI guardrails.
Clerk-Skip: workshop discussion docs, no D-record surface (D-237 filed separately)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- settings.json: add Read(repo/**), Read(/tmp/**), Grep, Glob to the
allowlist. Teammates inherit settings.json (not settings.local.json),
which had no Read rule — so every teammate file read escalated to the
lead as a per-file prompt. This closes that gap.
- Add the system-economic-specialization workshop brief (lore-authored
per-system dominant-commodity field + within-system weighted variation;
Q5 covers adding a small identity field set in the same 300-system pass).
Note: agent memory-strip (6c93b698f) + this read-allow reach teammates
only after a Claude Code restart (settings/agent-def snapshot is taken at
lead startup).

Four-round workshop (Gestalt, Tyre, Paula, Burnelli-Sheldon, Miri)
mapping the full generation pipeline from planetary heightmap to
walkable tile. 25 D-records produced. Ticket dependency chain for
Tier 0-4 implementation identified.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Implementation audit of the full generation pipeline from planetary
heightmaps to walkable tiles. 3-round workshop with Gestalt, Tyre,
Miri to map what exists vs. stubs vs. missing, produce D-records,
and create formal ticket dependency chain blocking character/apartment
work behind the complete pipeline.

The flag is a susceptibility marker, not an absolute state — Commission
certification only applies when trading in TRACTUS_PRIMARY zones.

"Biome" describes per-zone vegetation classification (Whittaker table).
"Planet class" describes overall planetary character. The conflation
caused the planet generator to misclassify ~270 bodies as barren.
Scope: systems.db column, schema SQL, Rust atlas code, wiki table
headers (Biome → Class), atlas proposal JSONs, all docs/decisions,
tooling scripts. Also normalizes atmosphere vocabulary (breathable →
standard) and expands planet class mapping to all 26 wiki values.
Unknown classes default to temperate for modder safety.

Workshop #801 deliverable: commodities.toml (36 commodities across
5 tiers), production_chains.toml (21 Leontief recipes including
2 substitution routes), schema.md (SQL DDL + validation rules).
Key design choices: brands are not commodities (separate layer),
water→fuel at 8:1 yield, 3 political sub-flags replacing single
boolean, gate energy-over-gate as commercial service. Wiki stub
pages generated for all 36 commodities.
Tickets #811–#815 created for follow-up work. #801 closed.

3 rounds of SW1 (endgame feature vision) with 5 agents + Qatux.
Produced endgame-feature-vision.md (692 lines) covering the full
galaxy-to-ground generation pipeline, cultural cascade, replayability
architecture, and player experience beats.
Workshop was cut short when PO redirected to a 6-phase development
cascade (wiki content → economics → planetary maps → player control →
world gen → detail coloring). v0.2 target dropped. Heritage roots
(D-104/D-105/D-101/D-107) flagged for supersession — real-world
cultural corridors replace abstract roots.

Round 6: four agents responded to the project lead's challenge
"what do you walk away with?" Gore proposed Threshold Attunement
and Attend verb (too philosophical, not literal enough). Gestalt
proposed vigil_vocabulary flag and Establish Watch verb. Nigel
proposed cross-playthrough WATCHER persistence flag. Ozzie
proposed door-measuring as retroactive evidence reading (thin
but visceral). Lead verdict: "too much philosophy too little
lootbox" — parking this for later. The reward design is TBD.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Round 5: Gestalt translated world texture into playable verbs.
Watch Investment Counter (hidden 0-100), six player verbs
(Watch, Investigate, Converse, File, Document, Depart), bleed
tile states, Adams & Ford entry as accumulated field notes,
investment-scaled gate departure monologue, storyteller
de-escalation. Project lead noted: "extraordinary world texture
and zero playable verbs" — this document fills that gap.

Round 4: final positions incorporating the name Abzu and all
challenge results. Locked decisions: high-bleed as failed vigil
canon, vigil predates human tenure, Institute paralyzed by
faction conflict, non-resolution principle. Araminta added
upwelling lighting gradient, departure transit spec, Mode 3
Institute transient vocabulary. Paula endorsed Option C for
the inner envelope. Miri specified six sealed envelope additions.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Round 3: all four agents challenged the sealed envelope against
existing Builder/Interstitium/Gate lore. Key finding: no
contradictions with canon. All four independently converged on
high-bleed gates = failed vigil signal. All four endorsed the
vigil predating human tenure. Inner sealed envelope identified
as required for implementation.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The sealed envelope: canonical internal truth about what the
vigil watches — observation is load-bearing, the founding
settlers were recruited, the doors accommodate non-human
shift-takers. Project lead direction: verbatim creative
decisions and critiques across all workshop rounds. Everything
up for grabs when the lead changes their fickle mind.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Round 2: each agent read all four briefs and synthesized.
Key convergences: the doors as load-bearing detail, Adams &
Ford entry as mechanic, community warmth-without-origin.
Nigel self-cut "memory-without-event" archetype. Paula revised
tier 4 from "they know" to "they've stopped asking."
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Round 1 of the Abzu workshop: Miri (worldbuilding), Paula
(narrative), Nigel (replayability), Araminta (visual design)
each produced independent briefs for the furthest system at
hop 23. Key seeds: Adams & Ford commission frame, the four
investigative frames, the "picture won't close" mechanic,
K-type amber palette, and the doors that are 10-15% too tall.
