+description: >
+  Generate audio assets for The Settled Reach using the Stable Audio Open API
+  (self-hosted Gradio app at tower-of-joy:11500). Use when generating any game
+  audio: ambient loops, SFX, UI sounds, monologue chimes, footsteps, or any
+  sound asset from docs/assets/audio/. Also use when the user asks about audio
+  generation, sound design pipeline, or audio asset iteration. Triggers on:
+  "generate audio", "make sounds", "create ambient", "audio pipeline",
+  "generate sfx", "stable audio", "gen audio", "sound design".
+---
+
+# Audio Generation — The Settled Reach
+
+Generate sonically consistent audio assets using the Stable Audio Open API via
+wrapper scripts at `db/connectors/audio-*`.
+
+Asset descriptions, filenames, bus routing, and design intent are documented in
+`docs/assets/audio/`. This skill provides the prompt system, generation
+workflow, and quality validation.
+
+## API Access
+
+**Never call the API directly.** Use the wrapper scripts:
+
+```bash
+# Check API health
+db/connectors/audio-health
+
+# Generate a single asset (WAV only)
+db/connectors/audio-generate "prompt text" \
+  --duration 10 --steps 100 --cfg 7 \
+  --output path/to/output.wav
+
+# Generate + post-process in one command (WAV → trim → normalize → OGG)
+db/connectors/audio-generate "prompt text" \
+  --duration 10 --steps 100 --cfg 7 \
+  --output path/to/gen/intermediate.wav \
+  --output-ogg client/assets/audio/final.ogg
+
+# Batch-generate from a manifest (preferred for multiple assets)
+db/connectors/audio-batch docs/assets/audio/batch-s10-327.json
+```
+
+### Parameters
+
+| Parameter | Default | Range | Notes |
+|-----------|---------|-------|-------|
+| `--duration` | 10 | 0-47s | Max 47s per generation. For longer loops, generate 45s with crossfade overlap. |
+| `--steps` | 100 | 10-200 | More steps = better quality, slower. Use 50 for quick previews, 100-150 for final. |
+| `--cfg` | 7 | 1-15 | Classifier-free guidance. Higher = more prompt-adherent but less natural. 5-9 is the sweet spot. |
+| `--output` | auto | — | Output WAV file path. Auto-names from prompt if omitted. |
+| `--post` | off | — | Run trim + normalize + convert after generation. |
+| `--output-ogg` | auto | — | OGG output path (implies `--post`). Defaults to same basename as WAV. |
+| `--timeout` | 600 | — | Max wait in seconds. Generation can take 2-5 minutes on 11GB VRAM. |
+
+### Critical Constraints
+
+- **NEVER parallelize requests.** The server has 11GB VRAM and runs one
+  generation at a time. Always wait for a generation to complete before
+  starting the next. Sequential only.
+- **Generation takes 2-5 minutes** per clip depending on duration and steps.
+  Be patient. The timeout default (600s) is generous.
+- **Max 47 seconds** per generation. For 60-90s ambient loops, generate 45s
+  clips and crossfade-stitch in post-processing.
+
+## Prompt Assembly
+
+Every generation uses three parts:
+
+```
+[SONIC FAMILY PREFIX] + [CATEGORY TEMPLATE] + [ASSET DESCRIPTION from docs/assets/audio/]
+```
+
+Never call the API with just the asset description. Always prepend the sonic
+family prefix and matching category template.
+
+- **Sonic palette and families:** Read `references/sonic-palette.md`
+- **Category templates:** Read `references/category-templates.md` and match by
+  asset type (ambient, sfx, ui)
+- **Asset description:** Look up the specific asset in `docs/assets/audio/{category}.md`
+
+## Batch Workflow (Preferred)
+
+For generating multiple assets, use a manifest file. This reduces prompt
+approvals to 2: one Write (manifest) + one Bash (batch run).
+
+### 1. Create the manifest
+
+Write a JSON manifest to `docs/assets/audio/batch-{sprint}-{ticket}.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "description": "Sprint 10 ambient + world SFX batch",
+  "output_dir": "client/assets/audio",
+  "gen_dir": "client/assets/audio/gen",
+  "defaults": {
+    "steps": 100,
+    "cfg": 7,
+    "lufs": -16,
+    "quality": 6
+  },
+  "assets": [
+    {
+      "id": "AMB-001",
+      "filename": "amb_station_base.ogg",
+      "method": "sao",
+      "duration": 45,
+      "steps": 150,
+      "cfg": 5,
+      "prompt": "[sonic family prefix] + [template] + [description]"
+    },
+    {
+      "id": "UI-005",
+      "filename": "sfx_monologue_chime.ogg",
+      "method": "synth",
+      "synth": {
+        "type": "harmonic",
+        "duration": 0.8,
+        "fundamental": 1200,
+        "harmonics": [
+          {"freq": 2400, "db": -12},
+          {"freq": 3600, "db": -24}
+        ],
+        "attack_ms": 15,
+        "sustain_ratio": 0.2,
+        "decay": "exponential"
+      }
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Asset `id` values must match IDs in `docs/assets/audio/{category}.md` (e.g.,
+AMB-001, SFX-002, UI-005). This couples the manifest to the asset inventory.
+
+### 2. Run the batch
+
+```bash
+# Full run
+db/connectors/audio-batch docs/assets/audio/batch-s10-327.json
+
+# Dry run — preview what would be generated
+db/connectors/audio-batch docs/assets/audio/batch-s10-327.json --dry-run
+
+# Generate only specific assets
+db/connectors/audio-batch docs/assets/audio/batch-s10-327.json --only AMB-001,AMB-002
+
+# Skip assets that already have OGG files
+db/connectors/audio-batch docs/assets/audio/batch-s10-327.json --skip-existing
+```
+
+### 3. Update asset docs with prompts
+
+After the batch completes, write the exact prompts used back into the
+Prompt/Notes column of `docs/assets/audio/{category}.md`. The manifest records
+what was generated; the asset docs record what we have.
+
+### Manifest fields
+
+| Field | Required | Notes |
+|-------|----------|-------|
+| `id` | yes | Asset ID from docs (AMB-001, SFX-002, UI-005) |
+| `filename` | yes | Output filename (must match asset doc) |
+| `method` | yes | `sao` (Stable Audio Open) or `synth` (harmonic synthesis) |
+| `duration` | SAO only | Duration in seconds |
+| `prompt` | SAO only | Full assembled prompt |
+| `steps` | no | Override default steps |
+| `cfg` | no | Override default CFG |
+| `synth` | synth only | Synthesis parameters (see below) |
+
+### Synth parameters
+
+| Field | Default | Notes |
+|-------|---------|-------|
+| `type` | harmonic | Only `harmonic` supported currently |
+| `duration` | — | Duration in seconds |
+| `fundamental` | — | Fundamental frequency in Hz |
+| `harmonics` | [] | List of `{"freq": Hz, "db": dB}` objects |
+| `attack_ms` | 10 | Attack time in milliseconds |
+| `sustain_ratio` | 0.2 | Fraction of duration at full level before decay |
+| `decay` | exponential | `exponential` or `linear` |
+
+## Single Asset Workflow
+
+For one-off generation or iteration on a specific asset:
+
+1. Find the asset in `docs/assets/audio/{ambient,sfx,ui}.md` — note filename,
+   duration, bus, method, and design intent.
+2. Read `references/sonic-palette.md` for the sonic family prefix.
+3. Read `references/category-templates.md` for the matching template.
+4. Assemble the full prompt.
+5. Run `db/connectors/audio-health` to verify the API is up.
+6. Run `db/connectors/audio-generate` with `--post` or `--output-ogg` to
+   generate and post-process in one step.
+7. Verify the output (file size, duration).
+8. Update the asset status and prompt in `docs/assets/audio/{category}.md`.
+
+## Iteration Workflow
+
+For each asset, generate 4-6 candidates:
+
+1. **Generate candidates** — vary the prompt slightly (add/remove descriptors,
+   adjust CFG between 5-9). Run each generation sequentially — never in
+   parallel.
+2. **Solo test** — does each candidate sound right alone?
+3. **Stack test** — play the candidate alongside other layers. Does it mask or
+   clash?
+4. **Fatigue test** (loops only) — can you listen for 5+ minutes without a
+   jarring repeat?
+5. **Close-your-eyes test** — does it create a mental image or sensation?
+6. Select the best candidate (post-processing is already done if `--post` was
+   used).
+
+## Post-Processing (Standalone)
+
+If you need to post-process separately (e.g., re-normalizing an existing file):
+
+```bash
+# Full pipeline: trim → normalize → convert
+db/connectors/audio-post pipeline input.wav --output output.ogg
+
+# Individual steps
+db/connectors/audio-post trim input.wav
+db/connectors/audio-post normalize input.wav --lufs -16
+db/connectors/audio-post convert input.wav --output output.ogg
+```
+
+## Manual Synthesis (Insert-Tech Sounds)
+
+For sounds under 200ms (cursor hover, weapon aim), Stable Audio Open cannot
+produce meaningful output. Use manual synthesis via `tooling/synth_ui_sounds.py`
+or the batch manifest's `method: "synth"` with harmonic parameters.
+
+For complex synthesis beyond the `harmonic` type (FM, filtered noise, bandpass
+impulse), write a custom script in `tooling/` following the pattern in
+`tooling/synth_ui_sounds.py`.
+
+## Quality Checklist
+
+After generating, verify:
+- Sound matches the sonic family (insert-tech = synthetic/precise, organic = warm/natural)
+- Frequency range doesn't mask other layers (check docs/assets/audio/)
+- Duration matches spec
+- No unwanted artifacts (clicks, pops, digital noise at start/end)
+- Loop point is clean (ambient loops only)
+- Volume sits well relative to other assets (LUFS normalized)
+- Passes the close-your-eyes test
+
+## File Placement
+
+Generated assets go to `client/assets/audio/` with exact filenames from the
+asset docs. Intermediates go to `client/assets/audio/gen/` (gitignored).
+
+AudioManager discovers assets by directory scan — filenames must match exactly.

+
+# Bug Report Skill
+
+Process in-game bug reports exported by the Godot client to the user data
+directory. Each report is a directory containing a snapshot of game state at the
+moment the tester filed the report.
+
+```
+BUG_REPORT_DIR: /var/home/jeroenschweitzer/.local/share/godot/app_userdata/The Settled Reach/bug-reports/
+```
+
+## Report structure
+
+Each report lives in a directory named `gauntlet-t{tick}-{timestamp}/` and
+contains these files:
+
+| File | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `description.txt` | Tester notes + metadata (tick, room, stance, facing, position) |
+| `render.txt` | Simplified text render of the game snapshot |
+| `snapshot.json` | Full JSON snapshot (entities, dialogue state, etc.) |
+| `inputs.jsonl` | Last 60 ticks of player input (replay format) |
+| `snapshots.jsonl` | Last 60 ticks of observer snapshots |
+| `seed.txt` | RNG seed for deterministic replay |
+
+## Invocation
+
+- `/bug-report` — scan and process all unprocessed reports
+- `/bug-report <directory-name>` — process a specific report by directory name
+
+## Workflow
+
+### 1. Scan for unprocessed reports
+
+List all report directories in the bug reports directory:
+
+```bash
+ls -1d "/var/home/jeroenschweitzer/.local/share/godot/app_userdata/The Settled Reach/bug-reports/"*/
+```
+
+If no directories are found, report "No bug reports found." and stop.
+
+If the user provided a specific directory name as argument, filter to only that
+directory. If it does not exist, report the error and list available reports.
+
+### 2. Read and summarize each report
+
+For each report directory, read the following files using the Read tool:
+
+1. **`description.txt`** — extract:
+   - Tester description / notes (free text at top)
+   - Tick number
+   - Room name
+   - Player stance, facing, position
+2. **`render.txt`** — extract:
+   - A brief description of what the text render shows (room layout, visible
+     entities, player position marker)
+3. **`snapshot.json`** — extract:
+   - Total entity count
+   - Whether dialogue is active (look for `dialogue` or `conversation` keys
+     with non-null/non-empty values)
+   - Whether monologue is active (look for `monologue` keys with non-null/
+     non-empty values)
+   - NPC names and positions if present
+   - Any error or anomaly fields
+4. **`seed.txt`** — note the seed value for reference
+
+Do NOT read `inputs.jsonl` or `snapshots.jsonl` during the summary phase.
+These are large files reserved for the investigation step.
+
+### 3. Present the summary list
+
+Present a numbered list of all reports with their summaries. Format:
+
+```
+## Bug Reports Found: N
+
+### 1. gauntlet-t{tick}-{timestamp}
+- **Tick:** {tick} | **Room:** {room} | **Position:** ({x}, {y})
+- **Stance:** {stance} | **Facing:** {facing}
+- **Entities:** {count} | **Dialogue active:** yes/no | **Monologue active:** yes/no
+- **Seed:** {seed}
+- **Description:** {tester notes, first 2-3 lines}
+- **Render overview:** {brief description of what render.txt shows}
+- **Observations:** {any anomalies spotted in the snapshot}
+
+### 2. gauntlet-t{tick}-{timestamp}
+...
+```
+
+### 4. Offer actions per report
+
+After presenting the summary list, ask the user which action to take for each
+report. The three actions are:
+
+#### Investigate
+
+Dig deeper into the report for root cause analysis:
+
+1. Read `snapshot.json` in full — analyze entity states, component values,
+   relationships between entities, any inconsistencies
+2. Read `inputs.jsonl` — reconstruct what the player was doing in the 60 ticks
+   leading up to the report. Look for:
+   - Rapid input changes (stuck keys, input spam)
+   - Movement into walls or invalid positions
+   - Interaction attempts that may have failed
+   - Timing patterns (actions on same tick as state changes)
+3. Read `snapshots.jsonl` — compare entity states across recent ticks to find
+   when the bug manifested:
+   - Entity position jumps
+   - State machine transitions that look wrong
+   - Component values going out of expected range
+   - Entities appearing or disappearing unexpectedly
+4. Cross-reference with `render.txt` to confirm visual manifestation
+5. Read `seed.txt` and note it — the seed plus `inputs.jsonl` should allow
+   deterministic replay of the scenario
+
+Present findings as a root cause analysis:
+
+```
+## Investigation: gauntlet-t{tick}-{timestamp}
+
+### Timeline
+- t{tick-N}: {what happened}
+- t{tick-M}: {state change}
+- t{tick}: {bug manifests}
+
+### Root cause
+{Analysis of what went wrong and why}
+
+### Affected systems
+- {system 1}: {how it's involved}
+- {system 2}: {how it's involved}
+
+### Reproduction
+Seed: {seed}
+Replay inputs.jsonl from tick {start} to reproduce.
+
+### Suggested fix
+{If identifiable from the snapshot data}
+```
+
+After investigation, return to the action prompt for this report (the user
+may want to create a ticket or dismiss after investigating).
+
+#### Create ticket
+
+Create a bug ticket in the project database. Determine the team from the
+nature of the bug:
+
+- **server** — simulation bugs (entity state, movement, AI, ECS systems,
+  perception, knowledge graph)
+- **client** — rendering bugs (display glitches, UI issues, input handling,
+  audio, visual artifacts)
+- **server,client** — integration bugs (protocol mismatch, desync, bridge
+  issues)
+
+Construct the ticket title and description from the report summary and any
+investigation findings. Use the ticket CLI:
+
+```bash
+db/connectors/ticket create bug "{title}" --team {team} --description "{description}"
+```
+
+The description should include:
+- Bug summary (from tester notes)
+- Tick, room, position
+- Key observations from snapshot analysis
+- Seed for reproduction
+- Report directory name for reference
+
+After creating the ticket, report the ticket ID to the user.
+
+#### Dismiss
+
+Mark the report as not actionable. Remove the report directory:
+
+```bash
+rm -rf "/var/home/jeroenschweitzer/.local/share/godot/app_userdata/The Settled Reach/bug-reports/{report-dir}/"
+```
+
+**Always confirm with the user before deleting.** State clearly which directory
+will be removed and wait for confirmation.
+
+### 5. Batch processing
+
+When processing multiple reports, work through them one at a time in the
+numbered order presented. For each report, complete the chosen action before
+moving to the next.
+
+If the user wants to batch-dismiss multiple reports, confirm the full list
+of directories that will be deleted before proceeding.
+
+### 6. Final summary
+
+After all reports have been processed, present a summary:
+
+```
+## Bug Report Processing Complete
+
+- **Investigated:** {count}
+- **Tickets created:** {count} ({ticket IDs})
+- **Dismissed:** {count}
+- **Remaining unprocessed:** {count}
+```
+
+## Tips
+
+- Large `snapshot.json` files may need to be read with offset/limit parameters.
+  Start with the first 200 lines to get the structure, then target specific
+  sections.
+- `inputs.jsonl` and `snapshots.jsonl` are newline-delimited JSON. Each line
+  is one tick. Read the last 10-20 lines first to focus on the moments before
+  the report was filed.
+- The `render.txt` is a text-art representation of the game view. Entity
+  positions in the render should match positions in the snapshot. Mismatches
+  are themselves a bug signal (rendering vs simulation desync).
+- The seed in `seed.txt` combined with `inputs.jsonl` enables deterministic
+  replay on the server. Note this in any ticket you create.
+- If the bug-reports directory does not exist, the tester has not yet run any
+  gauntlet sessions or has not filed any reports. This is not an error.

+
+**Binary:** `/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/d2`
+
+## Project Defaults
+
+| Setting | Value | Override |
+|---------|-------|----------|
+| Theme | 200 (Dark Mauve) | `--theme N` |
+| Layout | dagre | `--layout elk` |
+| Padding | 100px | — |

+
+Both `.d2` source and `.png` output are tracked in git.
+
+## Single Diagram Workflow
+
+1. **Determine category** — architecture, data-flow, entity, state, or ui
+2. **Read template** — `references/diagram-templates.md` for the matching category
+3. **Read syntax** — `references/d2-syntax-guide.md` if unfamiliar with d2 syntax

+  color-text: "#c8d0e0"
+  color-accent: "#c8d8f0"
+}
+```
+
+### Multi-board (layers)
+
+```d2
+# Base diagram here
+
+layers: {
+  detailed: {
+    # More detailed view
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Sequence diagrams
+
+```d2
+shape: sequence_diagram
+client: Godot Client
+server: Rust Server
+
+client -> server: TickRequest(delta)
+server -> client: WorldState(entities)
+```
+
+### Imports
+
+Split shared definitions into a separate file and import:
+
+```d2
+...@shared-defs.d2
+```
+
+## Agent Guidance
+
+- **Qatux** — Architecture decision records, system overview diagrams, data
+  schemas. Prefer architecture and entity templates.
+- **Tyre** — IPC bridge, ECS system flow, chunk loading pipeline, perception
+  system data flow. Prefer architecture and data-flow templates.
+- **Araminta** — UI navigation flow, screen transitions, component hierarchy.
+  Prefer UI flow template.

+  Create and export UI wireframes using Frame0 (local desktop wireframing
+  app with HTTP API). Use when the user says "create wireframe", "wireframe
+  this", "mock up the UI", "draw a screen", "UI layout", "wireframe the HUD",
+  "Frame0", "frame0", "export wireframe", or invokes /frame0-wireframe.
+  Wireframes are authored as local JSON files (source of truth) and synced

+---
+
+# Frame0 Wireframe Generation
+
+Create UI wireframes as JSON files, sync them to Frame0 for rendering, and
+export as PNG. Local JSON is the source of truth — Frame0 is the renderer.
+
+**Frame0 is a renderer, not a workspace.** Treat it as disposable output.
+Push freely, delete test pages, keep it clean. Never pull from Frame0 unless
+the user explicitly says they have made edits in Frame0 and want to import
+them. The pull workflow exists for that case only — do not use it proactively.
+
+**Prerequisite:** Frame0 desktop app must be running. If not available,
+stop and inform the user. Point to `references/setup-guide.md`.
+
+## Health Check
+
+Always check first:
+
+```bash
+.claude/skills/frame0-wireframe/scripts/frame0-cmd.sh health
+```
+
+## Core Workflow
+
+1. **Health check** — verify Frame0 is running
+2. **Write wireframe JSON** — to `docs/design/wireframes/{category}/{name}.json`
+3. **Push to Frame0** — `frame0-sync.py push <file.json>`
+4. **Export PNG** — `frame0-sync.py export <file.json> <output.png>`
+5. **Clean up** — delete test/scratch pages from Frame0 when done
+
+### Scripts
+
+| Script | Purpose |
+|--------|---------|
+| `scripts/frame0-sync.py` | **Primary.** Push/pull/export wireframes between JSON and Frame0 |
+| `scripts/frame0-cmd.sh` | Low-level API wrapper for ad-hoc commands |

+      "strokeColor": "#c8d8f0"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Key rules
+
+- **Shape IDs are stable local IDs** you control (e.g. `"panel"`, `"btn-ask"`)
+- **`parent`** references another local shape ID for nesting
+- **`type`** uses create-API names: `Rectangle`, `Ellipse`, `Text`, `Line`
+- **Colors** can be hex (`#2a3040`) or Frame0 theme tokens (`$slate6`)
+- After a pull, Frame0 returns its native vocabulary (`Box` for Rectangle,
+  theme tokens for colors). The sync script handles the mapping transparently.
+- The `.idmap.json` mapping file (gitignored) tracks local ID ↔ Frame0 ID
+
+### Sync commands
+
+```bash
+SYNC=".claude/skills/frame0-wireframe/scripts/frame0-sync.py"
+
+# Push local JSON to Frame0 (clears page, recreates all shapes)
+$SYNC push docs/design/wireframes/dialogue/dialogue-box.json
+
+# Pull Frame0 page back to local JSON (preserves local IDs via mapping)
+$SYNC pull "Dialogue Box" docs/design/wireframes/dialogue/dialogue-box.json
+
+# Push + export as PNG in one step
+$SYNC export docs/design/wireframes/dialogue/dialogue-box.json \
+  docs/design/wireframes/dialogue/dialogue-box.png
+```
+
+### Batch export
+
+Use this when exporting multiple wireframes. It runs as a single Bash call,
+avoiding repeated permission prompts.
+
+```bash
+BATCH=".claude/skills/frame0-wireframe/scripts/frame0-export-batch.sh"
+
+# Dry run first — shows full manifest, no Frame0 calls
+$BATCH --dry-run
+
+# Export everything (skips PNGs already newer than their JSON)
+$BATCH
+
+# Export one category only
+$BATCH --category dialogue
+
+# Force re-export of everything
+$BATCH --force
+```
+
+**Always dry-run first, then get approval before running the live export.**
+
+## Low-Level Commands
+
+For ad-hoc operations or exec calls not covered by sync:
+
+```bash
+CMD=".claude/skills/frame0-wireframe/scripts/frame0-cmd.sh"
+$CMD health
+$CMD list-pages
+$CMD current-page
+$CMD get-page <page-id>
+$CMD create-shape Rectangle '{"name":"btn","left":100,"top":100,"width":120,"height":36}'
+$CMD create-connector <tail-id> <head-id>
+$CMD move <shape-id> <dx> <dy>
+$CMD export --format image/png
+$CMD exec "view:fit-to-screen" '{}'
+```
+
+If you find yourself using `exec` for the same command repeatedly, flag it as
+a candidate for a proper wrapper in `frame0-cmd.sh`.
+
+## Project Styling Defaults
+
+Colors from `docs/design/visual-grammar-v01.md`:
+
+| Role | Hex | Frame0 token |
+|------|-----|-------------|
+| Background | `#1a1e24` | `$sage3` |
+| Stroke | `#333340` | `$slate6` |
+| Fill | `#2a3040` | `$slate5` |
+| Text | `#c8d0e0` | `$mint12` |
+| Accent | `#c8d8f0` | `$blue12` |
+
+Use hex when authoring new wireframes. Frame0 maps them to theme tokens on push.
+
+## Output Convention
+
+```
+docs/design/wireframes/
+  hud/              # HUD layout wireframes
+  menus/            # Menu screen wireframes
+  dialogue/         # Dialogue box wireframes
+  insert/           # Neural insert wireframes
+```
+
+Both `.json` source and `.png` exports are tracked in git.
+`.idmap.json` mapping files are gitignored.

+# Frame0 HTTP API Reference
+
+Frame0 exposes a local HTTP API when the desktop app is running.
+
+## Endpoint
+
+```
+POST http://localhost:{port}/execute_command
+Content-Type: application/json
+```
+
+Default port: **58320** (override via `FRAME0_PORT` env var or `--port` flag).
+
+## Request / Response
+
+```json
+{"command": "namespace:action", "args": { ... }}
+```
+
+```json
+{"success": true, "data": { ... }}
+{"success": false, "error": "description"}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Type Mapping
+
+Frame0 uses different type names for create vs get:
+
+| Create API (`type`) | Get API (internal) | Description |
+|--------------------|--------------------|-------------|
+| `Rectangle` | `Box` | Rectangle with optional corners |
+| `Ellipse` | `Ellipse` | Circle/ellipse |
+| `Text` | `Text` | Text label |
+| `Line` | `Line` | Line/polyline |
+| `Frame` | `Frame` | Container from library |
+| `Freehand` | `Freehand` | Freehand drawing |
+| `Highlighter` | `Highlighter` | Highlighter stroke |
+
+The sync script handles this mapping transparently.
+
+## Color Tokens
+
+Frame0 maps hex colors to theme tokens on creation (`convertColors: true`):
+
+| Hex | Token | Role |
+|-----|-------|------|
+| `#1a1e24` | `$sage3` | Background |
+| `#2a3040` | `$slate5` | Fill |
+| `#333340` | `$slate6` | Stroke |
+| `#c8d0e0` | `$mint12` | Text |
+| `#c8d8f0` | `$blue12` | Accent |
+
+Both hex and token strings work in the API. Tokens are preserved on round-trip.

+# Frame0 Setup Guide
+
+## Installation (Fedora)
+
+Download from https://frame0.app/download and install the RPM:
+
+```bash
+sudo dnf install ./frame0-*.x86_64.rpm
+```
+
+Requires: Fedora 40 or later (x86_64).
+
+## Starting Frame0
+
+Launch the desktop application:
+
+```bash
+frame0 &
+```
+
+Frame0 exposes an HTTP API at `localhost:58320` when running.
+
+## Verify API Access
+
+```bash
+.claude/skills/frame0-wireframe/scripts/frame0-cmd.sh health
+```
+
+Expected output: `Frame0 is running on port 58320`
+
+## Port Configuration
+
+Default port: **58320**
+
+To use a different port, set the environment variable:
+
+```bash
+export FRAME0_PORT=58321
+```
+
+Or pass `--port` to any script:
+
+```bash
+.claude/skills/frame0-wireframe/scripts/frame0-cmd.sh --port 58321 health
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
+|---------|-------|-----|
+| "Connection refused" | Frame0 not running | Start the desktop app |
+| "Port in use" | Another instance running | Close duplicate or use different port |
+| Script hangs | API unresponsive | Restart Frame0 |

-  Generate audio assets for The Settled Reach using the Stable Audio Open API
-  (self-hosted Gradio app at tower-of-joy:11500). Use when generating any game
-  audio: ambient loops, SFX, UI sounds, monologue chimes, footsteps, or any
-  sound asset from docs/assets/audio/. Also use when the user asks about audio
-  generation, sound design pipeline, or audio asset iteration. Triggers on:
-  "generate audio", "make sounds", "create ambient", "audio pipeline",
-  "generate sfx", "stable audio", "gen audio", "sound design".
----
-
-# Audio Generation — The Settled Reach
-
-Generate sonically consistent audio assets using the Stable Audio Open API via
-wrapper scripts at `db/connectors/audio-*`.
-
-Asset descriptions, filenames, bus routing, and design intent are documented in
-`docs/assets/audio/`. This skill provides the prompt system, generation
-workflow, and quality validation.
-
-## API Access
-
-**Never call the API directly.** Use the wrapper scripts:
-
-```bash
-# Check API health
-db/connectors/audio-health
-
-# Generate audio
-db/connectors/audio-generate "prompt text" \
-  --duration 10 \
-  --steps 100 \
-  --cfg 7 \
-  --output path/to/output.wav \
-  --timeout 600
-```
-
-### Parameters
-
-| Parameter | Default | Range | Notes |
-|-----------|---------|-------|-------|
-| `--duration` | 10 | 0-47s | Max 47s per generation. For longer loops, generate 45s with crossfade overlap. |
-| `--steps` | 100 | 10-200 | More steps = better quality, slower. Use 50 for quick previews, 100-150 for final. |
-| `--cfg` | 7 | 1-15 | Classifier-free guidance. Higher = more prompt-adherent but less natural. 5-9 is the sweet spot. |
-| `--output` | auto | — | Output file path. Auto-names from prompt if omitted. |
-| `--timeout` | 600 | — | Max wait in seconds. Generation can take 2-5 minutes on 11GB VRAM. |
-
-### Critical Constraints
-
-- **NEVER parallelize requests.** The server has 11GB VRAM and runs one
-  generation at a time. Always wait for a generation to complete before
-  starting the next. Sequential only.
-- **Generation takes 2-5 minutes** per clip depending on duration and steps.
-  Be patient. The timeout default (600s) is generous.
-- **Max 47 seconds** per generation. For 60-90s ambient loops, generate 45s
-  clips and crossfade-stitch in post-processing.
-- **Output is WAV at 44.1kHz stereo.** Convert to .ogg for Godot import:
-  `ffmpeg -i input.wav -c:a libvorbis -q:a 6 output.ogg`
-
-## Prompt Assembly
-
-Every generation uses three parts:
-
-```
-[SONIC FAMILY PREFIX] + [CATEGORY TEMPLATE] + [ASSET DESCRIPTION from docs/assets/audio/]
-```
-
-Never call the API with just the asset description. Always prepend the sonic
-family prefix and matching category template.
-
-- **Sonic palette and families:** Read `references/sonic-palette.md`
-- **Category templates:** Read `references/category-templates.md` and match by
-  asset type (ambient, sfx, ui)
-- **Asset description:** Look up the specific asset in `docs/assets/audio/{category}.md`
-
-## Single Asset Workflow
-
-1. Find the asset in `docs/assets/audio/{ambient,sfx,ui}.md` — note filename,
-   duration, bus, method, and design intent.
-2. Read `references/sonic-palette.md` for the sonic family prefix.
-3. Read `references/category-templates.md` for the matching template.
-4. Assemble the full prompt.
-5. Run `db/connectors/audio-health` to verify the API is up.
-6. Run `db/connectors/audio-generate` with the assembled prompt. **One request
-   at a time. Wait for completion.**
-7. Listen to the output (or describe it based on file size/duration).
-8. If acceptable, convert to .ogg and place in `client/assets/audio/`.
-9. Update the asset status in `docs/assets/audio/{category}.md`.
-
-## Iteration Workflow
-
-For each asset, generate 4-6 candidates:
-
-1. **Generate candidates** — vary the prompt slightly (add/remove descriptors,
-   adjust CFG between 5-9). Run each generation sequentially — never in
-   parallel.
-2. **Solo test** — does each candidate sound right alone?
-3. **Stack test** — play the candidate alongside other layers. Does it mask or
-   clash?
-4. **Fatigue test** (loops only) — can you listen for 5+ minutes without a
-   jarring repeat?
-5. **Close-your-eyes test** — does it create a mental image or sensation?
-6. Select the best candidate, trim, normalize, convert.
-
-## Post-Processing
-
-After selecting the best generation:
-
-```bash
-# Trim silence from start/end
-ffmpeg -i input.wav -af "silenceremove=start_periods=1:start_silence=0.1:start_threshold=-50dB,areverse,silenceremove=start_periods=1:start_silence=0.1:start_threshold=-50dB,areverse" trimmed.wav
-
-# LUFS normalize to -16 LUFS (broadcast standard, good for game audio)
-ffmpeg -i trimmed.wav -af loudnorm=I=-16:LRA=11:TP=-1 normalized.wav
-
-# Convert to .ogg for Godot
-ffmpeg -i normalized.wav -c:a libvorbis -q:a 6 output.ogg
-
-# For loops: verify loop point
-ffplay -loop 0 output.ogg
-```
-
-For ambient loops, create crossfade overlap:
-```bash
-# Create a 45s loop with 3s crossfade overlap
-# (manual: export 48s, crossfade first 3s with last 3s in Audacity)
-```
-
-## Manual Synthesis (Insert-Tech Sounds)
-
-For sounds under 200ms (cursor hover, weapon aim), Stable Audio Open cannot
-produce meaningful output. Use manual synthesis instead:
-
-```python
-# Example: 50ms cursor hover tick
-import numpy as np
-import wave
-
-sr = 44100
-duration = 0.05  # 50ms
-t = np.linspace(0, duration, int(sr * duration), endpoint=False)
-freq = 3200  # Hz
-signal = np.sin(2 * np.pi * freq * t)
-envelope = np.exp(-t * 80)  # exponential decay
-audio = (signal * envelope * 32767).astype(np.int16)
-
-with wave.open("cursor_hover.wav", "w") as f:
-    f.setnchannels(1)
-    f.setsampwidth(2)
-    f.setframerate(sr)
-    f.writeframes(audio.tobytes())
-```
-
-## Quality Checklist
-
-After generating, verify:
-- Sound matches the sonic family (insert-tech = synthetic/precise, organic = warm/natural)
-- Frequency range doesn't mask other layers (check docs/assets/audio/palette.md)
-- Duration matches spec
-- No unwanted artifacts (clicks, pops, digital noise at start/end)
-- Loop point is clean (ambient loops only)
-- Volume sits well relative to other assets (LUFS normalized)
-- Passes the close-your-eyes test
-
-## File Placement
-
-Generated assets go to `client/assets/audio/` with exact filenames from the
-asset docs:
-
-```
-client/assets/audio/
-  amb_station_base.ogg       # Ambient bus
-  amb_workplace_layer.ogg    # Ambient bus
-  amb_bar_layer.ogg          # Ambient bus
-  amb_corridor_layer.ogg     # Ambient bus
-  sfx_footstep_metal.ogg     # Player Actions bus
-  sfx_footstep_metal_run.ogg # Player Actions bus
-  cursor_hover.ogg           # UI Sounds bus
-  implant_open.ogg           # UI Sounds bus
-  fog_recognition.ogg        # UI Sounds bus
-  weapon_aim.ogg             # UI Sounds bus
-  sfx_monologue_chime.ogg    # UI Sounds bus
-  sfx_monologue_chime_urgent.ogg  # UI Sounds bus
-```
-
-AudioManager discovers these by directory scan — filenames must match exactly.

+## Test suite for Sprint 13 audio tickets (D-067, D-068, D-069, D-071, D-072, D-073).
+##
+## Spec refs:
+##   D-067: Recognition chime fires at ONSET of cognitive delay, not at completion.
+##   D-068: 5-bus audio architecture (Music, Ambient, WorldSFX, PlayerActions, UISounds).
+##   D-069: Audio dip profiles — timing values, dB offsets, interruptibility.
+##   D-071: ListeningFocus boost (30+ tick gate, caller's responsibility).
+##   D-072: Universal NPC conversation murmur on WorldSFX — no zone-specific variants.
+##   D-073: Zone crossfade — hard boundary trigger, 1.5-2s tween, interruptible.
+##
+## Tickets covered:
+##   #529 — Zone crossfade implementation (set_zone body + tween timing)
+##   #530 — Dip profile call sites (dialogue/confrontation/ListeningFocus wiring)
+##   #531 — Recognition chime fires at cognitive delay onset
+##   #533 — NPC conversation murmur wired to WorldSFX bus
+##
+## Test layers:
+##   1. Zone crossfade spec and API (D-073 / #529)
+##   2. D-069 dip timing and dB spec values (supplementing test_audio_bus_routing)
+##   3. Volume slider proportional dip (D-068 / D-069)
+##   4. Dip call site wiring via GameState snapshot (D-069 / D-070 / #530)
+##   5. Recognition chime onset verification (D-067 / #531)
+##   6. NPC murmur routing (D-072 / #533)
+##   7. AudioManager no-op fallback sanity (D-068 / D-038)
