- heightmap.rs: read sea_level from the PNG tEXt chunk (bake writes it),
default-fallback param; new test reads_sea_level_from_text_chunk.
- client atlas_viewer.gd: load reliefmap.png (color display) instead of
heightmap.png (now 16-bit grayscale elevation, cascade-only).
- drop atlas_body_heightmaps: removed from systems-schema.sql; DROP TABLE in
import_economics MIGRATION_SQL (the PNG is the store now).
- D-202 amendment: implementation-status note (consumer + producer done),
resolving the review's 'reads done but producer pending' point.

Rework the regen-db atlas path for the names-only marker pool:
- populate_atlas_city_names now reads the names.cities pool instead of
the retired geometry-bearing cities[] records; population/kind are
deferred to placement (#955). Adds a deterministic clear-then-insert
(no UNIQUE on (body_id, name)) that fixes a latent duplicate-
accumulation bug — atlas_city_names dropped from an inflated 3276 to a
clean 329 pooled names + 134 corp-HQ rows.
- ensure_atlas_index_schema applies the canonical ATLAS INDEX block from
systems-schema.sql and empties the 8 geometry tables every regen; the
Phase 4 server cascade fills them (they start empty — the revealed gap).
- Sol (system 'GJ 0') is permanently exempt from the normal generators:
skipped in both the name-pool importer and the corp-HQ cross-ref.
- MIGRATION_SQL drops the retired generate_atlas meta stamp row so the
fail-closed stamp checker accepts older committed DBs.

New tables: atlas_body_heightmaps (D-202), atlas_city_names (D-207),
atlas_feature_names, atlas_province_boundaries (D-205), body_radius_km
column (D-204). Three new importers: heightmap BLOBs, city names from
wiki markers.json, province boundaries via D8 watershed analysis.
economic_role normalized to 7 canonical values (D-194). Stamp fix in
generate_atlas.py to hash all tracked source files. systems.db regenerated.

asset-pipeline.md (2 locations) and systems-schema.sql still pointed
at import_economics.py as the SCHEMA_VERSION home after the extraction
to a shared module.

Replace SHA-1 hash in meta.schema_version with an orderable semver
string ("1.0.0"). SHA preserved in new schema_sha column for tamper
detection. Enables savegame migration lineage in Phase 5+ — saves can
record their schema version and determine which migrations to apply.
Updated both generators, check-systems-db-stamp validation (rejects
old SHA-hex values), schema DDL, and asset-pipeline docs.

Adds systems.db regeneration discipline (#855) via a `meta` table (#856)
stamped by every generator, a pre-push hook that rejects stale DBs (#857),
and the top-level `make regen-db` / `make check-systems-db` targets that
drive the whole pipeline.
The stamp stores SHA-1 of generator source + schema, so the pre-push hook
can cheaply detect "you changed a generator but forgot to regen the DB"
before a binary merge conflict lands. Sprint 36 hit that class of conflict
on two branches touching systems.db simultaneously — this is the systemic
fix.
Regenerated systems.db is stamped; `make check-systems-db` passes.

Two related quality fixes observed mid-run on Sirius + ACB + Ran:
1) Cosmopolitan corridor palettes. The six corridor inflection labels
were single-culture dominant ("administrative English / Gateway-era",
"British / Australian / Irish", "Korean/Japanese/Taiwanese", etc).
Gemma 2 2B interpreted these as "produce ONLY in this register" and
every core body came out anglophone, every east_reach body came out
East Asian. The real Earth diaspora in the setting is cosmopolitan —
a British surveyor on an east_reach moon still names a river after
their aunt in Dorset. The labels now spell out the dominant register
AND explicitly invite cross-cultural variety so Gemma samples from
the full few-shot pool instead of collapsing to one culture.
2) Per-system gttr context (the big one). The gttr.md files under
wiki/star-systems/<slug>/gttr.md already carry a vivid one-sentence
characterisation of every system — "where the rules live", "forty
years old and still in the draft", "the most connected system in
the Reach", "grandparents owned the land". This is a far stronger
cultural signal than the corridor inflection alone.
New column `star_systems.gttr_hook` stores a pre-extracted 45-word
hook per system. `tooling/db/populate_gttr_hook.py` parses each
gttr.md, regex-matches the first `**NAME**` paragraph, normalises
whitespace, truncates softly at a word cap, and stores it. Covers
all 301 systems (full coverage). Idempotent, safe to re-run after
any wiki update. Explicit transaction wrapper.
gemma_naming.py loads the hook cache at startup via
`load_system_gttr_hooks` and threads `system_hook` plus the system
and body proper names through process_body → name_feature →
_build_prompt. The prompt now carries:
System: <proper_name>. Planet: <body_name>.
About the system: <gttr_hook>
Style: British. Answer: Cooper's Creek
Style: Dutch. Answer: Meijer Beek
...
Real-mode smoke on 10 cases across 4 contrasting systems shows the
hook is doing exactly what it should. Sample output on the same
body_id / local_id pairs:
Tau Ceti (cosmopolitan hub) → Oakham River, Riverwood, Bridle Way
Ran (old-family agricultural) → Hart's Well, Blackwood Ridge
ACB (Lattice Commission seat) → Greenhaven, Rudge Brook
Posto Avançado (PT frontier dead-end) → Rio Preto, Serra de Caxias, Cunha's Cove
Posto Avançado went from "likely-English under the old corridor-only
prompt" to actual Portuguese names with a real Brazilian place stem
(Caxias), because the hook explicitly mentions wave_5 Portuguese
founders and frontier dead-end context. The gttr cultural one-liner
is the single strongest lever available for per-system cohesion —
this was the mono-culture issue observed in the first run, now fixed.
Token cost: ~60-90 extra tokens per prompt (hook + ident line).
Inference slowdown: ~5-10% per call. Acceptable for the quality gain.
Also restores 10 markers.json files that were stale from the aborted
run just killed — they were all core bodies at hop 0-1 which benefit
most from the gttr-context upgrade, so re-running them with the new
prompt is worth the ~3 minutes of re-inference.
- ON DELETE CASCADE added to every atlas_* foreign key (atlas_body_grids,
atlas_cities, atlas_roads, atlas_railroads, atlas_pois, atlas_rivers,
atlas_oceans, atlas_mountain_ranges). Previously, deleting a body from
the bodies table or NULL-ing its terrain_reference would leave orphan
atlas rows forever — sync_markers_to_db only cleans up for bodies it
re-processes. The existing atlas tables in systems.db were dropped and
recreated with the new constraint; FK list now reports CASCADE.
- Atlas DDL deduplicated. systems-schema.sql is now the single source of
truth, bracketed by `-- BEGIN ATLAS INDEX` / `-- END ATLAS INDEX`
markers. generate_atlas.py reads that block via `_load_atlas_schema()`
and applies it at runtime, so there is no second copy of the DDL to
keep in sync. Adding a column requires one edit, not two.
- Uniqueness guard on city coordinates. `_enforce_unique_city_coords`
runs at the end of `place_cities` and deterministically perturbs any
duplicate (row, col) via a fixed spiral walk to the first free
walkable land cell. Rare in practice but the MST collapses to a
zero-distance edge otherwise, producing an empty A* path and silently
dropping the road.
- Grid header validation. `load_markers` now raises `AtlasGridMismatch`
if the loaded `grid: {w, h}` header does not match `GRID_W`/`GRID_H`.
Both the incremental-skip path and the regenerate path route through
this loader, so a hand-authored template shipping a different grid
size fails loud with a per-body error rather than silently producing
half-scale coordinates.
- Unused `seed_rng` parameter removed from `_analyse_terrain`. The
function is RNG-free (continent flood-fill, habitability scoring,
river-mouth dedup, cost grid — all pure functions of terrain). The
false API contract made it look like terrain analysis consumed RNG
state and had to be sequenced with downstream RNG use.
- `_score_capital_sites` river-mouth bonus now builds one sparse
accumulator with all mouth points set at once and runs a single
`gaussian_filter` call, instead of O(n_mouths) filter calls over
single-point images.
- `binary_dilation(analysis["land_mask"] == False)` replaced with the
idiomatic `~analysis["land_mask"]`, matching the convention used
elsewhere in the file.
- `atlas-generate` Makefile target now guards on
`SELECT COUNT(*) FROM bodies WHERE terrain_reference IS NOT NULL`.
On a fresh DB that count is 0 and the generator previously exited
"success" after processing zero bodies. The target now fails loud
with a pointer to `populate_terrain_reference.py`.
- `main.rs` SimRng defensive re-insertion gains a long comment
explaining the exact plugin-ordering hazard it guards against, so
future readers don't treat the line as dead code. Tied to #826.
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.
Implements the Phase 3 atlas content generator per D-191 §3, §8, and §9.
Pipeline per body (terrain-aware, deterministic per seed + body):
1. Simulate terrain via planet_simulation.simulate().
2. Analyse continents (flood-fill), habitability (temp/moisture/slope +
coastal bonus), river mouths, and a terrain A* cost grid.
3. Place cities sequentially — capital first (habitability + river-mouth
bias), then corridor growth via multi-source Dijkstra, quadrant-spread
penalty after 2 cities in a quadrant, port-on-new-continent bonus at
cities 3–4. ±25% noise for seed variation.
4. Generate roads and railroads as an MST over city positions, with
A* paths on the terrain cost grid (rail follows roads where possible).
5. Place a transit POI at the capital (15% chance to scatter to a
secondary city).
Output (canonical markers.json schema, pixel space per D-191 §8):
- cities: {id, name, kind, center:[r,c], population}
- roads: {id, name, kind, path:[[r,c],...]}
- railroads: {id, name, kind, path:[[r,c],...]}
- pois: {id, name, kind, center:[r,c]}
- existing rivers/oceans/mountain_ranges preserved untouched.
City names are left empty for gemma_naming.py (#833). Body population is
split across cities with geometric decay (capital ~50%, each subsequent
city half the previous). The 6 hand-authored bodies (Lendel, Edict,
Vuurkloof, Røros, Cairnside, Estrade) are detected by existing
`cities` and skipped for regeneration; their markers are still synced
to the DB index below.
Atlas index in systems.db (new):
- atlas_body_grids, atlas_cities, atlas_roads, atlas_railroads,
atlas_pois, atlas_rivers, atlas_oceans, atlas_mountain_ranges
- Scalar metadata mirror of every markers.json — the implant atlas app
and development queries can lookup cities/POIs/features without
scanning 267 JSON files. Polyline geometry stays in the markers.json
files next to the heightmaps (used by the renderer); the DB only
stores filterable scalar fields plus `point_count` as a length proxy.
- Schema lives in server/data/systems-schema.sql; generate_atlas.py
mirrors the CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS block so it runs against any
DB state (matches the economy-db importer pattern).
- Populated and refreshed on every run. Each body's rows are deleted
and reinserted deterministically — no stale state.
Also fixes a pre-existing WIP bug in the quadrant-saturation penalty
loop (a stray outer `for r in range(GRID_H)` with unreachable breaks
meant only the NW quadrant was ever checked).
Runtime: 280s for all 267 inhabited bodies on a single core. 265 bodies
updated this run, 6 hand-authored bodies synced to DB without
regeneration.
Atlas index after run:
atlas_cities 329 (15 hand-authored + 314 awaiting #833)
atlas_roads 46
atlas_railroads 44
atlas_pois 287
atlas_rivers 2034
atlas_oceans 696
atlas_mountain_ranges 1953
atlas_body_grids 267
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.
Extends systems.db schema with gate_links, commodities, production_chains,
chain_inputs, corp_presence, and currency_zones tables required for the
Phase 2 economics layer.

Add 5 new tables: gate_links (668 bidirectional edges from star-map.json),
commodities (36 types from commodities.toml), production_chains (21
Leontief recipes), chain_inputs (52 input requirements), corp_presence
(empty, populated by future pipeline). Add currency_zone column to
star_systems (D-172), archetype columns to corporations (D-175).
New import pipeline: tooling/economy-db/import_economics.py reads
TOML/JSON source files and populates the DB. Idempotent — safe to
rerun via `make economy-db`.

"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.

Schema: added orbital_period_days and rotation_period_hours to bodies
table. Proposal format now includes surface_gravity, orbital_period_days,
rotation_period_hours with sensible defaults per body type.
New sync-wiki command generates a Celestial Bodies section in wiki
pages from DB data. All 16 fields rendered including Year (d) and
Day (h). Re-authored Gateway (GJ 71) with full physics.

New tables for the celestial body hierarchy below system level:
- bodies: planets, moons, gas giants, asteroid belts, oort clouds
with physical properties, settlement data, and cultural overrides
- stations: orbital/surface facilities with type, population,
docking class, and gate infrastructure flag
Naming convention: GJ-{n}b (planet), GJ-{n}b-1 (moon),
GJ-{n}b-S1 (station), GJ-{n}-oort (oort cloud).
Self-referential parent_body_id for moon→planet relationships.

Replaces flat star_systems table with 7 normalized tables: star_systems,
system_gates (with hop_distance_from_gateway), system_history,
historical_events (1:N), system_economy, system_factions, system_culture.
Primary key is now the GJ astronomical ID (e.g., "GJ 244A") — S-number
identifiers removed entirely. The astronomical_id column is dropped as
redundant. Database moved to server/data/systems.db (ships with game).
10 core systems fully populated with structured data.
