95->11 Standalone / 60->144 CityTenant per Jeroen's boundary ruling: only extraction/mining/quarrying, heavy vehicle+shipyard, heavy energy, gate infrastructure keep their own settlements; craft/consumer manufacturing, agriculture offices, high-tech fabs flip to CityTenant. Cygni pin moved to Metropolis (its HQ settlement vanishes under the flip). Regen systems.db: 340 city rows, 129 tenant links, fixpoint stable.

H1+H2: headquarters_body is reset+derived every run (DB is never source); optional authored frontmatter override, hard-validated; tiebreak now population DESC -> city-bearing body -> type rank -> body_id, preserving belt tenancies and fixing GJ702B to GJ702Bb. T2: NULL-reset pass for corp_specialization/hq_placement before authored re-apply (poison-tested). T1: wiki/corporations/*.md globbed into IMPORT_ECONOMICS_SOURCES. M1: licensed_clinical_services vocabulary value (31st, NonPhysical->CityTenant) + somatic-futures retag. Fixpoint verified stable across 4 consecutive regens (0 diffs); regen systems.db.

Ratified content baked into systems.db as two new tables:
- architecture_zone_bias (57 rows): sparse per-template, per-zone_type
token-weight overrides (integer bps), Miri-authored — the D-235 step-2
zone bias. V-TT-06: every token must exist in that template's own
visual_bundle axis.
- color_register_bands (28 rows): per color_register integer HSV bands
(hue centidegrees, sat/val bps), Araminta-authored. V-TT-07: full
catalog coverage + valid integer bounds (min<max, in range).
Both TOMLs registered in generator_sources (stamp coverage); DDL in
systems-schema.sql + migration.py; validation wired into import_economics
steps 18/19 and test_traits.py failure-branch units (make test-tooling).
systems.db regenerated + re-stamped.

The D-232 core hand-curated catalog (28 templates) the architecture-flavor
draw reads from, baked into trait_templates (#993):
- Cross-corridor pool (10): economic-function templates gated by BulkClass
(extraction/industrial/cold-chain/precision/information/civic) + universal
baselines + the foreign-import swerve. Guarantees the CI floor.
- Per-corridor baseline (8): each corridor's default cohesive look — core
cosmopolitan, north anglo-frontier, south lusophone, west germanic +
compact-cooperative, east dense-utilitarian, deep-frontier surname +
hardscrabble.
- Heritage sub-pools (10): deep-history callbacks tied to the D-237 heritage
taxonomy (scottish highland, west-african compound, iberian hacienda,
atlantic creole, nordic timber, central-european blok, east-asian temple,
vietnamese water village, afrikaans kraal, arab oasis).
Each template = holistic bundle: two-tier eligibility (hard gates
bulk_class/ubiquity/prosperity_bps + soft weight mods), zone_affinity over
the real DistrictType enum, allow/block tags from a shared ObjectTag
palette, and a D-235 visual_bundle with generic fallback parents. All
numerics integer basis-points (D-010).
Adds the D-232 CI guardrails to the baker (V-TT-01: >=5 templates eligible
per BulkClass; V-TT-02: no template >60% of pool weight) — both pass with
margin (23-24 eligible/class, 5% max share). Catalog can grow via the
bounded Gemma pass (#992); hero pins are #1017.

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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Completes the deferred cultural half of #1016 and migrates the heritage
vocabulary to the canonical 47-value taxonomy (D-237).
Migration (mechanical):
- _CULTURAL_HERITAGE replaced with the canonical 47-value set
(docs/.../heritage-taxonomy-draft.md). Renamed the 4 shipped hero
values to canonical: afrikaans_cape->afrikaans, french_provencal->
french, italian_northern->italian, norse_compact->nordic.
Content pass (authored from GTTR/name heritage triage, 6-sector fan-out):
- +139 new cultural_specialization pins and 1 change (Altmark
cosmopolitan->financial_technocratic), taking coverage 32 -> 171
across 54 distinct values. Each pin is grounded in an explicit GTTR
founding-community statement or system/feature name etymology, applied
only where founding heritage DIVERGES from the corridor baseline
(D-167/D-232); corridor-typical systems left NULL.
Distribution is now balanced and diverse — portuguese 15, german 12,
vietnamese 10, afrikaans 10 (no longer dominant post-#1019), then a long
tail filling the previously-missing slots (welsh, herero, czech, akan,
hungarian, konkan, afro_brazilian, cape_verdean, shona, arab/persian/
turkic, etc.).
Judgment calls (flagged for review):
- Kruger 60 + Pedra Seca -> xhosa (mixed SA founding; adds diversity).
Pedra Seca has a Portuguese name but Afrikaans/Xhosa GTTR founding —
name/heritage mismatch noted for a future content fix.
- Kampala Gate / Moyale / Mwangaza -> swahili as the nearest token for
East-African-interior heritage; taxonomy may want a dedicated value.
- Kept hero pins Kensho=scholarly, Keid=scholarly, Nyrheim=nordic.

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 corridor over-represented southern-African heritage (afrikaans on 15
systems; arab=2, persian/turkic=0) as an artifact of the earlier
name-balancing overcorrecting. Convert five genuinely-thin afrikaans
systems — whose distinctive threads are heritage-agnostic — into
Arab/Persian/Turkic founders so the cultural cascade is built on a
balanced set. Load-bearing mystery systems (Eerste Wacht / Helderoog /
Brandpunt etc.) are left untouched.
Droëland (GJ 914A) -> Marib (arab)
Stilwater (GJ 508A) -> Sawad (arab)
Koeberg (GJ 1245B) -> Akhgar (persian)
Skuilplek (GJ 722) -> Siginak (turkic)
Carnarvon (GJ 680) -> Golestan (persian; Mostert dynasty -> Farahani)
Result: afrikaans 15->10; arab 0->2, persian 0->2, turkic 0->1.
Full narrative retouch (not just names): gttr.md + index.md prose,
body/station proper_names, cultural_specialization, gttr_hook,
atlas_city_names, and the four brand-corps named after the converted
systems (corp IDs kept stable; only display names + products renamed).
Cross-references in neighbour systems, the catalog, the aggregate
drifter guides, and the atlas proposals are updated to match.
arab/persian/turkic added to _CULTURAL_HERITAGE so the values validate;
the full canonical 47-value migration remains #1016.
Also fixes a pre-existing canon bug: Sawad (GJ 508A) no longer claims
GJ 914A is "unsettled" — it is Marib, a three-century settlement.

The 6-sector content pass (core pilot + deep_frontier/north/east/south/west,
~260 systems read from both index.md and gttr.md) authored economic_
specialization + dominant_faction for the systems whose lore makes those
identities distinct. Conservative pin bar: corridor-typical systems left NULL
for the heuristic/derivation fallback.
Totals now: economic 170 (27 hero + 143), faction 76 (27 hero + 49),
cultural still 27 (DEFERRED — the culture pass needs a canonical heritage
vocabulary first; the agents surfaced ~30 real heritages from the names plus a
genuine Middle-East/Arabic gap, to be reconciled into one taxonomy before
writing cultural_specialization).
regen-db green, stamp fresh, all CI guardrails pass. Soft warnings are the
expected D-177 MonopolySource review list, the known Arbour estate/breadbasket
question, and sparse-corp_presence W-FAC-03 advisories — none blocking.
Notable pins: Haodu financial_hub/syndic_dominant, Matamba legal_archive,
Inhambane/Sonnwend/etc breadbasket, the terroir cluster, the west_reach
Compact zone, Aurelius governance_center/veil_institute. FLAGs left NULL
pending human calls (ISPI=veil_institute?, Gate-Corp-as-faction).

Spring-cleaning accumulated v0.1 vertical-slice residue across the
wiki. Scope per Jeroen's pre-decisions on 2026-04-21:
- Delete outright: wiki/star-systems/GJ-35/sova/ subtree (5 files +
2 dirs) — v0.1 Station Sova / Transit District content.
- Strip example blocks in authoring guides and _templates/ that
cited dropped v0.1 NPCs (Kael Davan, Sera Venn, Nils Davan, Devra,
Torek, Renn, Pell, Tav, Lera Sessik, Sabel). Replaced with short
"v0.1 examples removed — D-122" notes pointing authors to the
active NPC roster.
- Rewrite canonical-lore references file-by-file: faction pages,
technology pages, contraband pages, concepts pages, corp pages
that cited v0.1 names/places. Preserve institutional/structural
content, drop specific-name citations.
- Commission name drift: replace "Concord Commission" and "Assembly
Commission" with "the Lattice Commission" (D-193) throughout.
- Van Maanen's Star cultural references: the canonical in-game name
is Vuurkloof. "Van Maanen's Star" is retained only as an
astronomical designation (glossary + GJ-35 Calibration Note).
All cultural/system references converted to Vuurkloof across
culture-authoring-guide, cultural-generation-guide, founder-gates,
and star-system adjacent-system descriptions.
- Strip `v0.1` from faction/triangle frontmatter tags (8 files).
- wiki/triangles/hub-power.md and wiki/factions/the-ring.md:
rewritten using role-name exemplars (Ring Coordinator / Shift
Supervisor / THE FRIEND) instead of named v0.1 NPCs. Triangle
pattern preserved as a structural reference.
Also applies drive-by Commission drift fixes and minor cross-ref
updates to canonical corps (gate-corporation, mastroianni-vehicle-group,
stalownia-kowalski, prometheus-labs, ferreira-monteiro, vins-de-grand-vide,
and 13 others).

price_tier was documented in D-189 §5 and present in brands.toml but
silently discarded on import — absent from schema, INSERT, and V-B06.
- Add price_tier TEXT column to brand_products CREATE TABLE
- Add COLUMN_MIGRATIONS entry for ALTER TABLE on existing DBs
- Add VALID_PRICE_TIERS constant (mass/premium/luxury/flagship/institutional)
- Include price_tier in product_rows tuple and INSERT OR REPLACE
- Add price_tier to V-B06 enum checks; skip NULL (nullable column)
- Backfill 4 pre-amendment anchor brands (8 entries): Calloway flagship/premium,
VGV luxury/premium, thrds luxury/premium, Bífröst flagship/luxury
V-B01..V-B06 all pass.

Header still said "4 anchor brands only, Phase 3 deferred". Now reflects
Sprint 36 #828 reality: 124 brand corps, full D-189 census, all 8 categories.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Blocking PR #129 items 1, 2 (plus polish 16 and 17):
- D-191 §8 prose rewritten to match the code. The previous amendment said
positions were `{x, y}` objects against a "typically 1024 × 512" grid,
but the generator, the six hand-authored templates, and all 2394
procedural seed files ship `[row, col]` integer arrays against a
`{"w": 512, "h": 256}` grid. The decision doc is now aligned with
reality: positions are `[row, col]`, the storage grid is 512 × 256,
and the row-first ordering is called out explicitly so readers can
cross-reference NumPy/flood-fill/A*/cost-grid conventions.
- §8 now follows the D-094 amendment pattern. The superseded 2026-04-10
prose is preserved verbatim as "Original (superseded)" with a dated
Amendment block on top — future readers can see what changed and why
instead of silently losing the history.
- brands.toml header gains a short Phase 2 boundary note. The 4 anchor
brands come from D-189 §5; the additional ~23 brands from D-189 §11
are deliberately deferred to Phase 3 — Phase 2 only needs the demand-
node plumbing and V-B01..V-B06 validation exercised end-to-end.
- systems-schema.sql `bodies.terrain_reference` comment now pins the
repo-root-relative path convention (wiki/star-systems/<slug>/bodies/
<body_id>/heightmap.png) so the three downstream pipelines (populate,
atlas generator, client loader) share a documented contract instead
of drifting against an unwritten convention.
Adds the brand layer per D-189 §5:
- Schema: brand_products, brand_inputs, system_fiscal, corp_financial_state,
corp_lifecycle_events (+ 5 indexes).
- Importer: reads wiki/economics/corporations/brands.toml, populates the
new tables, validates V-B01–V-B05 structural rules, and derives
system_fiscal for inhabited systems.
- Data: 8 brand_products, 16 brand_inputs, 301 system_fiscal rows.
Brand products are demand nodes — they consume commodities; they are not
commodities themselves (D-185). Depends on copy PR #127 for the corp
records referenced by brands.toml.
All 36 commodity stubs fleshed out with lore context, production chain
descriptions, and economic intelligence briefing voice. Key treatments:
fusion_fuel (D-187 8:1 ratio), services (location-bound mechanics),
brands distinguished from commodities per D-185.
