WorldTier enum fixed to Epicenter/Regional/Backwater/Passage/Waypoint
(D-218). Full enum implementations for ComplexityTier, SettingType,
SettlementClass, DistrictType, PoliticalArchetype, FoundingOrientation,
TerritorialStatus, GeographicAttractor, AttractorType, and
CompatibilityMatrix. SystemNameIndex with Aho-Corasick text scanning
for background pre-generation queue integration (D-206).

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.

the version field (regenerated).
All 6 previously-failing tests now pass with zero regressions.

5. decision wrapper: add show + orphan-tickets to usage text
6. Add schema_version.py to all three source watch lists
(GENERATOR_SOURCES, IMPORT_ECONOMICS_SOURCES, generate_atlas

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

Updated both generators, check-systems-db-stamp validation (rejects
old SHA-hex values), schema DDL, and asset-pipeline docs.

Addresses Tyre, Hoshe, and lead review comments on PR #137:
- **Audit doc amendment** (Tyre E1 / Hoshe H1 / Lead): add "Lead override
(2026-04-21)" section at top of docs/architecture/sprint-37-878-audit.md.
Rewrites the conclusion to "DECISION: STRIP" with the cascade-based
rationale. Preserves the original audit body as the pre-override record.
- **Regression tests** (Lead 2a-2b / Hoshe H2 / H3): add POSITIVE
assertions of the new uniform behavior so silent reintroduction fails.
- `phase2_container_verb_labels_uniform_regardless_of_player_state` —
two trials (empty KG, POI-bearing KG) assert container verb labels
equal Phase-1 defaults.
- `monologue_pool_selection_uniform_no_archetype_key` — two observers
with divergent MonologueState both draw from OBSERVE_NPC_LINES.
- **Decision record amendments** (Lead 3 / Tyre S2): D-032, D-035, and
D-057 amended with Phase 6 deferral wording. "Retired pending Phase 6,
not deferred with scaffolding." Reintroduction gate: a confirmed
Phase 6 character-model design.
- **types.rs doc fixes** (Tyre S1 / Hoshe H5): StartupMessage protocol-
flow comment updated to reflect no-version handshake (D-192).
ObserverSnapshot version-history block grows a "Sprint 37 wire-format
shifts" section documenting D-192 + #878 schema drops.
- **observer/tests.rs:944 comment** (Hoshe H6): rewritten to cite
cascade rationale instead of the stale D-032-SUPERSEDED premise.
- **tests/run-atlas-determinism exit** (Hoshe H7): exit 0 when EXIT_CODE=2
(venv/DB missing = skip, not fail). Preserves skip semantics for
tests/run-all on machines without the Python venv.
Follow-up tickets filed:
- #895 (server, low): expand check-systems-db-stamp GENERATOR_SOURCES
to cover gemma_naming.py + naming_core.py (Tyre S3).
- #896 (planning, low): add CLAUDE.md carveout for server wiki writes
closing coverage gates (Tyre S4 / Hoshe H8).
H4 investigation: v01_integration_playthrough.rs was not the only E2E
handshake→tick→snapshot test; coverage preserved by bridge_ipc.rs,
bridge_tcp.rs, and game_loop.rs (the latter is pre-existing-broken
per #885). No replacement test needed.

Sprint 37 dead-code sweep closing out two stale supersession chains:
#877 (D-167, 2026-03-24): Removes HeritageRoot type alias and
ZonePaletteModifier::Heritage variant from server/src/simulation/
generator.rs. The 7 abstract heritage roots were retired in favour of
the corridor cultural system; these two stubs were the only remaining
references.
#878 (D-032 + cascade rule): Strips the entire CharacterArchetype
(Smuggler/Detective) trace from the server. Per lead direction
2026-04-21 and the development cascade (CLAUDE.md), character/NPC/
verb-differentiation/monologue code is Phase 6 detail that should
not exist in code yet. The running archetype trace was pre-cascade
filler, not production — production is only the client's character-
creation UI and insert screens (client follow-up in #882).
Deleted:
- CharacterArchetype enum + StartupMessage.character_archetype field
- archetype_verb_label() + archetype branch of apply_phase2_verb_filter
(D-057 character-verb differentiation — marked superseded)
- MonologueState.character partitioning
- Gauntlet archetype plumbing (setup_gauntlet no longer takes an archetype)
- server/content/schemas/drama_module.schema.yaml (zero Rust consumers)
- server/content/modules/tier1/smuggling_ring_v0_1.yaml
- server/tests/archetype_monologue.rs (regression guard for the removed system)
- server/tests/v01_integration_playthrough.rs (archetype-dependent)
Decision updates:
- decisions/content.md D-032 supersession rewritten to cite the cascade
(v0.2 drop invalidated the prior D-117 framing).
- decisions/content.md D-035 tag taxonomy: `character` enum footnote
updated; field noted as unused, do not reintroduce without a
confirmed Phase 6 design.
- decisions/perception.md D-057: archetype-verb differentiation marked
superseded.
Also bundles the types.rs version-field removal from #874 since the
file was already touched here.

Removes the PROTOCOL_VERSION lockstep handshake across the bridge
transports. HandshakeMessage is now an empty marker indicating the
server is ready; the client sends StartupMessage next. Field-presence
and roundtrip behavioral tests are retained — tautological
version-literal assertions were deleted in Sprint 36.
After this lands, genuine schema drift surfaces as MessagePack
missing-field errors downstream, which is the intended signal per
D-192. Client ticket #875 is blocked by this commit and will ride
the same wave; server schema changes in #878 (character_archetype
removal) also depend on PROTOCOL_VERSION already being gone.
types.rs changes are bundled with the broader #877/#878 dead-code
sweep in the following commit, since they share the same file.

Addresses all blocking + minor items from PR #136 review.
Architectural change (T2/H3 — the review's main complaint):
generate_brands was previously a separate Rust binary that produced a TOML
artifact, with its stamp written "on behalf" by import_economics.py at the
end of its own run. Reviewers flagged the invisible coupling: two sources
of truth in a system designed to have one, and no way to tell from the
stamp that one "generator" was really a subroutine of the other.
import_economics now invokes tooling/generate-brands as the first step of
its main() flow, before opening its own DB connection. The TOML artefact
is still produced and still committed (useful for diff-review of brand
changes), but there's now one pipeline owner. The meta table carries two
rows (import_economics, generate_atlas) not three; the Rust binary's
source SHA folds into import_economics' stamp via IMPORT_ECONOMICS_SOURCES.
A MIGRATION_SQL DELETE cleans up pre-merge DBs that still have the
orphan generate_brands row.
Other review items addressed in-line:
H1 generate_atlas._write_stamp no longer commits — transaction ownership
stays with the caller (matches import_economics pattern). Stamp +
atlas data now commit atomically; a failed stamp rolls back the
atlas data rather than leaving a stamp-missing-data intermediate.
H2 _file_sha1 (in both import_economics, generate_atlas,
check-systems-db-stamp) raises FileNotFoundError on missing sources
instead of silently contributing an empty-bytes hash. A ghost-SHA
convergence could otherwise produce vacuous "fresh" passes.
H4 pre-push no-meta-table warning rephrased — was "run after next
regeneration", now "run now if this DB was generated by you".
T1 asset-pipeline.md determinism claim softened: the stamp is
deterministic (same source → same recorded SHA), the DB binary is
not (generated_at + SQLite rowids/freelist churn).
T3 asset-pipeline.md gains a "migration escape hatch" section naming
MIGRATION_SQL in import_economics.py as the only sanctioned path
for direct writes, and forbidding hand-run sqlite-exec / one-off
patch scripts / SQLite-GUI edits.
T4 Makefile regen-db now runs as a single shell with `set -e`. A
failure in one generator halts the pipeline immediately, preventing
the "stale data, fresh stamp" state where a later step stamped a
DB whose earlier step had failed. import_economics' exit code 2
(coverage gate warning) remains explicitly tolerated.
T5 pre-push stamp check now runs on a branch's first push too —
compares against origin/main instead of origin/$BRANCH, closing
the gap where a new branch could ship a stale DB via the first push.
T6 check-systems-db-stamp fails closed on unknown generator_names in
meta — a future branch adding a new generator without registering
it in GENERATOR_SOURCES will now be rejected, not silently skipped.
T7 /pr-push watch list gains a mutual cross-reference comment with
GENERATOR_SOURCES in check-systems-db-stamp, plus the missing
names.rs source file, so the two lists cannot silently drift.
Follow-up tickets created:
#887 T8 decisions-orphan-tickets CLI — surfaces tickets whose
decision_ref points at a non-existent D-record.
#888 T9 meta.schema_version monotonic semver — for savegame migration
lineage in Phase 5+ (SHA comparison can't be ordered).
Verified:
make regen-db end-to-end — OK
make check-systems-db — OK, 2 generator(s) up to date
STALE detection — OK, verified by touching generate_atlas.py
/pr-push watch list — OK, flags this branch's changed sources

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.

Systematic sweep eliminated all city name cross-body collisions across the
273 inhabited bodies. Started from Forum Veritas/Jade Harbor/Fort Iron
clusters identified during the #849 analysis pass.
Strategy: use world proper_name as capital city name wherever unique.
For worlds sharing a proper_name, author corridor-appropriate alternates.
All edits synced to atlas_cities via generate_atlas.py --body.
Before: 119+ cross-body city collisions, worst-case ×20 (Jade Harbor)
After: 0 cross-body city collisions
Clusters eliminated: Forum Veritas ×10, Jade Harbor ×19, Fort Iron ×10,
Eisenstadt ×7, Fjordheim/Fjordholm ×6 each, Eisenberg/Eisenfels/Hanseong ×5
each, Ridge Marker ×5, plus 20+ smaller clusters down to ×2.
River/ocean collisions (Rio Grande ×23 rivers, Steinbruch ×19, etc.)
remain — these affect uninhabited secondary bodies at scale and require a

two generic oceans renamed (Keldmere, Seterfjord — the latter cross-refs
mountain Seterfjellet); POI renamed to "Kallast Gate Terminal".
Established cross-ref arcs: Rán-, Seter-, Keld-.
GJ144e Vethis (1.2B pop): 9 fixes — 4 river renames (1 cardinal, 1
earth-echo, 2 generics), 1 ocean (Ash- overuse → Veth Mere), 3 mountain
renames (2 generics, 1 Ash- overuse). Established arcs: Grey- (4 names),
Thorn- (2), Kel- (3), Veth- (3), Ash- (2, down from 3).
GJ71c Threshold (600M pop): 1 fix — river "Aethelred" (Anglo-Saxon)
replaced with "Gaius" to complete the all-Latin survey-team arc (Octavius,
Septimus, Quintus, Valeria, Marcus, Gaius).
GJ71d Arden (500M pop): 2 fixes — "Concordia Hall" city renamed "The

LlamaModelParams::default() sets n_gpu_layers=0, so even with --features
rocm the model ran entirely on CPU at ~19 t/s. Setting n_gpu_layers to a
large sentinel value asks llama.cpp to offload every layer the model
has; llama.cpp clamps to the real count (27 for Gemma 2 2B). Observed
throughput jumps from 19 t/s to 74 t/s on an RX 9070 once the ROCm
binary is also compiled for gfx1201 (see tooling commit).

Previous runs (both the GPU-contention kill and the anglophone-only
interrupt) left 19 hop 0-1 core bodies with stale generator output in
their markers.json files. Those bodies were being skipped via the
preserved path on relaunch, which meant the gttr-context fix
(commit a5fbce4c) would never touch them — exactly the set of
high-visibility systems that benefits most from per-system cohesion.
Reset to origin/main (clean null-name state) + re-prune to the 8/6
caps. Hand-authored templates (Edict, Estrade, Vuurkloof, Lendel,
Cairnside, Røros) explicitly excluded from the reset list and
verified intact (2-4 named cities each, untouched).
After this commit only the 6 hand-authored templates have
populated names in wiki/star-systems/. The entire rest of the reach
is clean and will be freshly named by the next gemma_naming.py run
with the full gttr + cosmopolitan + grounded few-shot + rotating
pool stack.
Bodies reset:
- Ran (GJ 144): all 9 bodies
- Sirius (GJ 244A): GJ244Ab, c, e-1, e-2 (not Ad, that's Edict)
- ACB (GJ 559B): GJ559Bb
- Tau Ceti (GJ 71): GJ71b, c, d, d-1, e
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.
Two fixes from observing the first Gemma 2 batch run on Sirius:
1) Prune oversized feature counts. The upstream terrain pipeline emits
every distinct mountain cluster as a separate `mountain_range` and
every flowing path as a separate `river`. At the atlas generator's
512×256 grid this produced bodies with 40-80 named ranges and
10-15 rivers — noise, not information. A single planet with 48
ridges isn't richer, it's unparseable.
`tooling/planet-gen/prune_atlas_features.py` walks every
`markers.json` under `wiki/star-systems/`, ranks each feature type
by a size proxy, and keeps only the top N:
- mountain_ranges: sorted by `area_cells`, top 8 per body
- rivers: sorted by path length, top 6 per body
- oceans / cities / pois: untouched (already small, or
hand-authored by generate_atlas.py)
Sol (GJ-0) is hardcoded-excluded from pruning so the hand-authored
Earth / Mars / moon content stays untouched.
Each pruned body gets its atlas_* rows re-synced via
`sync_markers_to_db` so the DB mirror stays consistent. Bodies
whose wiki folder has no matching row in `bodies` (14 pre-existing
orphans like GJ1156h-1, GJ34Ah-2, …) are pruned in-file but skip
the DB sync to avoid FK violations on atlas_body_grids.
First run results:
bodies scanned: 2394
bodies pruned: 1513
mountain ranges dropped: 11640
rivers dropped: 1382
Safe to re-run — idempotent when a body is already within the caps.
2) Grounded cosmopolitan fallback palette. When Gemma's 3 retries
all fail (dedup, blocklist, stem-cap, placeholder), the code falls
to `_FALLBACK_STEMS[corridor]`. The old table had 10 stems per
corridor, all Latin-institutional (Meridian, Concord, Prefecture,
Cardinal, Lumen, Foro, Tabula, Vox, Axis, Senatus), which produced
the same-y `Axis Spine / Axis Ridge / Axis Heights / Axis Scarp`
clusters the user flagged on Sirius — exactly the old epic-Latin
register the few-shot pools were rewritten to avoid.
Fallbacks now draw from a 30-45 stem grounded cosmopolitan list
per corridor matching the few-shot pool intent:

Per-feature suffix lists also expanded (e.g. river suffixes now
include Brook, Stream, Flow, Creek on top of the original Run /
Water / Beck / Rill / Course). Net effect: 300-450 unique fallback
combinations per (corridor, feature_type), up from 50, in the same
grounded register the few-shot pools teach.
Also preserves aliases `inner_corridor`, `inner_orbit`, and
`sol-gateway-axis` as legacy-compatible keys pointing at the
administrative-English palette.
Combined effect on the next run:
- ~45% fewer features to name (pruned 13k/52k)
- ~9× more fallback variety per corridor when fallback does trigger
- Same grounding overhaul from the previous commit, now reaching
into the safety-net path
