+# Gitea Access (tea CLI)
+
+**Never access the Gitea API directly** — use the `tea` CLI with all required flags to bypass interactive mode.
+
+Always pass `--login schweitz --repo jpmschweitzer/settled-reach --output simple` to avoid TTY prompts.
+
+```bash
+# List open PRs
+tea pr list --login schweitz --repo jpmschweitzer/settled-reach --state open --output simple
+
+# View a PR with comments

+tea pr approve --login schweitz --repo jpmschweitzer/settled-reach <PR_NUMBER>
+
+# List issues
+tea issue list --login schweitz --repo jpmschweitzer/settled-reach --state open --output simple
+```
+
+## Key rules
+
+- **All flags must be explicit** — omitting `--login` or `--repo` triggers interactive prompts that crash in Claude Code (no TTY)
+- **Use `--output simple`** for machine-readable output (no table borders)
+- **For comments, use `tooling/tea-comment <number> "body"`** — handles temp files and cleanup automatically. Works with multi-line strings.
+- **`tea pr reject` does not work on your own PRs** — use `tea comment` instead
+- **Never delete protected branches:** `main`, `maintenance`, `server`, `client`, `copy`, `audio`, `visual`, `ci` are protected on Gitea. Do not use `tea pr clean`, `git push --delete`, or `git branch -D` on these branches.
+
+## Pull requests
+
+**Use `tea` (Gitea CLI), not `gh` (GitHub CLI).** The remote is Gitea at `git.schweitz.internal`.
+
+Always provide all required flags to ensure non-interactive execution:
+```bash
+tea pr create \
+  --repo jpmschweitzer/settled-reach \
+  --login schweitz \
+  --title "feat(scope): short description" \
+  --description "PR body here" \

+# Team Patterns
+
+## Model selection
+
+Default model is Opus 4.6 (200K context). For heavy sessions (workshops,
+sprint planning, large reviews), switch to extended context on-demand:
+
+- `/model sonnet[1m]` — Sonnet 4.6 with 1M context window
+- `/model opus[1m]` — Opus 4.6 with 1M context window
+- Cost: 2x input + 1.5x output for tokens beyond 200K (Tier 4 required)
+
+## Large content pushes
+
+When producing many files (wiki pages, content batches, bulk docs):
+1. **Lore librarian** agent (read-only): ingests all source material, answers focused context queries from writers, tracks cross-file consistency
+2. **Multiple writer** agents (parallel, by domain): each gets a task slice, writes directly to disk using the Write tool — one file at a time, write often, no text accumulation
+3. **Reviewer** agents (blocked until writing done): check voice consistency, attribute uniformity, style
+
+Key: writers use Write tool directly (no transcription bottleneck), librarian catches contradictions early, split work by domain not volume.
+
+## Team monitoring (stuck agent detection)
+
+When leading a team (sprint, workshop, or any multi-agent session):
+
+**Agent heartbeat rule** — include in every agent spawn prompt:
+> If you have been working on a single task for more than 15 minutes
+> without making progress, message the team lead with what is blocking
+> you. Do not keep retrying the same approach silently.
+
+**Team lead proactive checks:**
+- If an agent has not sent a message in ~20 minutes, ping them for a status update.
+- **Bottleneck detection:** if other agents are idle and waiting on one agent's output, that agent's silence is a red flag — check on them immediately, do not wait for the next natural message.
+- When checking on a stuck agent, offer to reassign the task or pull in another agent to help.

+  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}

+- t{tick-M}: {state change}

+### Root cause
+{Analysis of what went wrong and why}
+
+### Affected systems

+- {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.

+description: >
+  Generate technical diagrams using d2 (text-to-diagram CLI). Use when the
+  user says "create a diagram", "draw architecture", "make a flowchart",
+  "diagram this", "render d2", "d2", "data flow diagram", "entity relationship",
+  "state machine", "sequence diagram", "UI flow", or invokes /d2-diagram.
+  Produces .d2 source files and renders them to PNG. Also use when asked
+  to update, re-render, or batch render existing diagrams.
+---
+
+# d2 Diagram Generation
+
+Generate technical diagrams from text using d2 (v0.7.1). Pure CLI, no
+external dependencies beyond the d2 binary.
+
+**Binary:** `/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/d2`
+
+## Project Defaults
+
+| Setting | Value | Override |
+|---------|-------|----------|
+| Theme | 200 (Dark Mauve) | `--theme N` |
+| Layout | dagre | `--layout elk` |
+| Padding | 100px | — |
+| Format | PNG | `--svg` |
+
+## Output Convention
+
+```
+docs/diagrams/
+  architecture/    # System architecture, IPC, component layout
+  data-flow/       # Sequence diagrams, data pipelines
+  entity/          # ER diagrams, ECS component schemas
+  state/           # State machines, behavior trees
+  ui/              # UI navigation flow, screen transitions
+```
+
+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
+4. **Write .d2 source** — to `docs/diagrams/{category}/{name}.d2`
+5. **Validate** — `.claude/skills/d2-diagram/scripts/d2-render.sh validate {file}`
+6. **Render** — `.claude/skills/d2-diagram/scripts/d2-render.sh {file}`
+7. **Read SVG** — verify the output, present to user
+
+### Script Usage
+
+```bash
+# Render with project defaults
+.claude/skills/d2-diagram/scripts/d2-render.sh docs/diagrams/architecture/ipc-bridge.d2
+
+# Validate syntax only
+.claude/skills/d2-diagram/scripts/d2-render.sh validate docs/diagrams/architecture/ipc-bridge.d2
+
+# Auto-format source
+.claude/skills/d2-diagram/scripts/d2-render.sh fmt docs/diagrams/architecture/ipc-bridge.d2
+
+# Sketch mode (hand-drawn look for drafts)
+.claude/skills/d2-diagram/scripts/d2-render.sh docs/diagrams/ui/flow.d2 --sketch
+
+# Light theme (for printable docs)
+.claude/skills/d2-diagram/scripts/d2-render.sh docs/diagrams/entity/schema.d2 --theme 0
+
+# SVG output (if specifically needed)
+.claude/skills/d2-diagram/scripts/d2-render.sh docs/diagrams/architecture/overview.d2 --svg
+```
+
+## Batch Render
+
+Re-render all diagrams after theme or style changes:
+
+```bash
+# All diagrams
+.claude/skills/d2-diagram/scripts/d2-batch.sh
+
+# One category
+.claude/skills/d2-diagram/scripts/d2-batch.sh docs/diagrams/architecture/
+
+# Preview what would render
+.claude/skills/d2-diagram/scripts/d2-batch.sh --dry-run
+
+# Force re-render everything
+.claude/skills/d2-diagram/scripts/d2-batch.sh --force
+```
+
+Batch skips files whose PNG is newer than the `.d2` source unless `--force`.
+
+## Advanced Patterns
+
+### Variables for consistent styling
+
+```d2
+vars: {
+  color-bg: "#2a3040"
+  color-stroke: "#333340"
+  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.
+
+## References
+
+- `references/d2-syntax-guide.md` — Language quick reference (shapes, edges,
+  containers, styling, variables). Read when unfamiliar with d2 syntax.
+- `references/diagram-templates.md` — Five category templates with complete
+  d2 source examples. Read when starting a new diagram.

+  "Frame0", "frame0", "export wireframe", or invokes /frame0-wireframe.
+  Wireframes are authored as local JSON files (source of truth) and synced
+  to Frame0 for rendering and export. Requires Frame0 to be running locally.
+---
+
+# 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 |
+
+## Wireframe JSON Format
+
+```json
+{
+  "name": "Dialogue Box",
+  "shapes": {
+    "panel": {
+      "type": "Rectangle",
+      "left": 170, "top": 500, "width": 800, "height": 260,
+      "fillColor": "#1a1e24",
+      "strokeColor": "#333340",
+      "corners": [8, 8, 8, 8]
+    },
+    "speaker": {
+      "type": "Text",
+      "parent": "panel",
+      "left": 190, "top": 520,
+      "text": "LERA KONSTANTIN",
+      "fontColor": "#c8d0e0",
+      "fontSize": 16
+    },
+    "btn-ask": {
+      "type": "Rectangle",
+      "parent": "panel",
+      "left": 190, "top": 670, "width": 370, "height": 30,
+      "fillColor": "#2a3040",
+      "strokeColor": "#c8d8f0",
+      "corners": [4, 4, 4, 4]
+    }
+  },
+  "connectors": {
+    "flow-1": {
+      "tailId": "panel",
+      "headId": "btn-ask",
+      "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 |

-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 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.

+
+For example, the `copy` branch lives at:
+```

+```
+
+**All reviewer agents** (regardless of Bash access) should read source files
+from the worktree path using the Read tool. This is more reliable than
+`git show origin/<branch>:<path>` because:
+- All agents have Read access (no Bash dependency)
+- Files are always the actual branch checkout (no stale cache)
+- No risk of accidentally reading from main's working directory
+
+When constructing reviewer prompts, tell agents to read files from the
+worktree path. Example instruction for agents:
+
+```
+Read the changed files from the branch worktree. The branch is checked
+out at: /var/home/jeroenschweitzer/Projects/settled-reach/<branch>/
+
+For example, to read `content/dialogue/the-terminal/kael-davan.yaml`,
+use: /var/home/jeroenschweitzer/Projects/settled-reach/<branch>/content/dialogue/the-terminal/kael-davan.yaml
+```
+
+Also tell agents to read relevant `decisions/*.md` files from the same
+worktree (they're identical to main, but using the worktree path keeps
+agents grounded in the correct directory).

+# Start Sprint Skill
+
+Prepare a team branch for sprint work: sync with main, load the sprint
+briefing, and present actionable next steps.
+
+## Workflow
+
+### 1. Determine the team
+
+The current branch IS the team. Read it with:
+```bash
+git branch --show-current
+```
+
+Valid team branches: `server`, `client`, `copy`, `audio`, `visual`, `ci`.
+
+If on `main`, follow the **Main branch workflow** below instead of
+the team branch workflow (steps 2–8).
+
+---
+
+## Main branch workflow (sprint lifecycle management)
+
+When `/sprint-start` is run on `main`, assess the current sprint state
+and do the next right thing. Query the database to determine the state:
+
+```bash
+db/connectors/sqlite-query "SELECT id, name, status FROM sprints ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 3"
+```
+
+Then follow the **first matching case**:
+
+### Case A: An active sprint exists
+
+First, check whether the sprint's work is actually done:
+
+```bash
+db/connectors/sprint status
+```
+
+This shows ticket counts by status (done, in_progress, backlog).
+
+Also check for open PRs that may contain completed work waiting for
+review or merge:
+
+```bash
+tea pr list --login schweitz --repo jpmschweitzer/settled-reach --state open --output simple
+```
+
+Report the full picture to the user:
+- Ticket progress (done / in_progress / backlog counts)
+- Open PRs (if any — these represent work that's done but not merged)
+
+**If tickets remain unfinished** (in_progress or backlog) **or open PRs
+exist**, do NOT close the sprint. Instead, report the current progress
+and ask the user what they want to do:
+
+- **Continue working** — switch to a team branch and run `/sprint-start`
+  there to resume work
+- **Review & merge PRs first** — (only if open PRs exist) merge pending
+  work before deciding whether to close
+- **Close anyway** — proceed with the close workflow below (carries over
+  unfinished tickets)
+
+Use `AskUserQuestion` to confirm. Do not proceed to A1 unless the user
+explicitly chooses to close.
+
+#### A1. Close the active sprint
+
+```bash
+db/connectors/sprint stop
+```
+
+This marks the active sprint as completed and lists carry-over candidates.
+Note the sprint number (N) from the output.
+
+#### A2. Bump the version
+
+The project version scheme is `v0.1.{sprint_number}`. After closing
+sprint N, the version is `v0.1.N`.
+
+Update `project.yaml`:
+- Set the `version` field to `0.1.N` (this is the source of truth).
+
+Update `server/Cargo.toml`:
+- Set `version = "0.1.N"` in `[package]`.
+
+Update `CHANGELOG.md`:
+- Move all entries under `## [Unreleased]` into a new section
+  `## [v0.1.N] — YYYY-MM-DD` (using today's date).
+- Leave `## [Unreleased]` as an empty section above the new version.
+- Keep the existing sub-headings (Added, Fixed, Changed, Removed) —
+  only move entries that have content.
+
+#### A3. Commit the release
+
+Stage and commit `project.yaml`, `server/Cargo.toml`, and `CHANGELOG.md`:
+```
+chore(meta): release v0.1.N
+```
+
+#### A4. Tag the release
+
+```bash
+git tag v0.1.N
+```
+
+#### A5. Push
+
+```bash
+git push && git push --tags
+```
+
+#### A6. Check for a planned sprint
+
+After closing, re-query the database. If a sprint in `planning` status
+exists, continue to **Case B**. Otherwise, report the close and suggest
+running `/sprint-plan`.
+
+---
+
+### Case B: No active sprint, but a planned sprint exists
+
+A sprint is ready to activate. Verify it looks complete:
+
+1. Check that briefing files exist at `docs/sprints/sprint-N/`:
+   ```bash
+   ls docs/sprints/sprint-N/
+   ```
+2. Check the ticket count:
+   ```bash
+   db/connectors/sprint status --sprint N
+   ```
+
+If briefings are missing or the sprint has 0 tickets, report the gap
+and suggest running `/sprint-plan` to complete planning.
+
+If everything looks ready, activate the sprint:
+
+```bash
+db/connectors/sprint start
+```
+
+Then report:
+- Sprint activated (name, ticket count per team)
+- Remind the user to switch to a team branch and run `/sprint-start`
+  there (or `cd` into the relevant worktree)
+
+---
+
+### Case C: No active sprint and no planned sprint
+
+Nothing is ready. Report the state and suggest running `/sprint-plan`
+to plan the next sprint.
+
+---
+
+## Team branch workflow
+
+### 2. Sync with main
+
+```bash
+git fetch --all
+git merge origin/main --no-edit
+```
+
+If the merge has conflicts, report them and stop — do not force-resolve.
+
+### 3. Load sprint context
+
+Run the sprint CLI to get the full context dump in one shot:
+
+```bash
+db/connectors/sprint start-work
+```
+
+This auto-detects the active sprint and current team from the branch.
+It outputs: sprint metadata, briefing paths, decision refs, actionable
+tickets, blocked tickets, and done tickets.
+
+If no active sprint is found, report that and stop.
+
+### 4. Read the sprint briefing
+
+Read the briefing file(s) listed in the `start-work` output
+(e.g. `docs/sprints/sprint-6/server.md` and `joint.md`).
+If no matching briefing exists for the team, suggest running
+`/sprint-plan` to generate one.
+
+### 5. Load ticket details
+
+For tickets that need more detail than the `start-work` summary provides:
+```bash
+db/connectors/ticket show <id>
+```
+
+### 6. Read key decisions
+
+Read the decision files referenced in the sprint briefing so the agent has
+full architectural context before starting work.
+
+### 7. Mark tickets in progress and present the work plan
+
+Mark all actionable (unblocked, non-done) tickets in the sprint as
+`in_progress`:
+
+```bash
+db/connectors/ticket status <id> in_progress
+```
+
+Then output a summary:
+- Sprint name and goal
+- Branch status (clean merge or conflicts)
+- Tickets marked in_progress (list with IDs)
+- Blocked tickets (and what blocks them)
+- Key decisions loaded
+- Suggested first task (lowest ID unblocked ticket)
+
+### 8. Confirm and spawn the team
+
+Before spawning agents, use `AskUserQuestion` to confirm the work plan and
+agent lineup with the user. If declined, stop.
+
+Once confirmed:
+
+#### 8a. Parse agents from the briefing
+
+Extract agent names from the `**Agents:**` line. Format:
+```
+**Agents:** Name (role), Name (role), ...
+```
+
+Map each name to its `subagent_type` (lowercase):
+- "Dudley (simulation)" → `dudley`
+- "Stig (UI)" → `stig`
+- "Tyre (architecture)" → `tyre`
+- "Hoshe (QA)" → `hoshe`
+- "Mellanie (author)" → `mellanie`
+- etc. (see `.claude/agents/` for full roster)
+
+#### 8b. Create the team
+
+```
+TeamCreate(team_name: "sprint-{N}-{team}")
+```
+
+This makes you the team lead.
+
+#### 8c. Create tasks from tickets
+
+For each ticket in the briefing, create a task:
+
+```
+TaskCreate(
+  subject: "#{id}: {title}",
+  description: "Full ticket details from step 5, plus briefing notes
+    and integration points for this ticket.",
+  activeForm: "Working on #{id}: {short_title}"
+)
+```
+
+After creating all tasks, mirror the dependency chain from the briefing
+using `TaskUpdate` with `addBlockedBy`.
+
+#### 8d. Spawn agents
+
+For each agent from the `**Agents:**` line, spawn a teammate in the
+background. Spawn all agents in parallel (one message, multiple Task calls):
+
+```
+Task(
+  subagent_type: "{name_lowercase}",
+  team_name: "sprint-{N}-{team}",
+  name: "{name_lowercase}",
+  prompt: "You are on the {team} team for Sprint {N}.
+    Branch: `{team}`
+
+    RULES (NON-NEGOTIABLE):
+
+    1. GIT: Do NOT run any git commands (commit, push, pull, merge,
+       checkout, branch, stash, tag, etc.). All git operations are
+       handled by the team lead. No exceptions.
+
+    2. DB SCRIPTS: When calling ticket/sprint/sqlite scripts, use
+       the exact command with no wrappers or chaining. Examples:
+         db/connectors/ticket show 528
+         db/connectors/ticket list --sprint {N}
+       Do NOT prepend python3, do NOT chain with && or ;, do NOT
+       add cleanup commands. Just the bare command.
+
+    3. READ BEFORE WRITE: Before modifying ANY file, Read it first.
+       Before creating a new file, Glob for similar files to learn
+       the existing patterns (naming, structure, imports). Follow
+       the conventions you find — do not invent new ones.
+
+    4. VERIFY AFTER WRITE: After implementing a change, grep for
+       all references to functions/properties/classes you modified
+       or removed. If you renamed, moved, or deleted something,
+       update EVERY call site. Missing a call site breaks tests
+       and blocks the team.
+
+    5. NO PARTIAL WORK: Do not mark a task completed unless ALL
+       parts of the ticket are implemented. If the ticket says
+       'deliver A, B, and C', all three must exist and work. If
+       you cannot complete part of a task, message the team lead
+       explaining what is blocked and what remains — do NOT mark
+       it completed.
+
+    6. MESSAGE WHEN BLOCKED: If you hit a problem you cannot solve
+       in 3 attempts, stop and message the team lead immediately.
+       Do not silently skip work or leave stubs. Do not move to
+       the next task while the current one is incomplete.
+
+    7. BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY: When extracting, moving, or
+       refactoring code, ensure all existing consumers still work.
+       Add proxy methods/properties if needed. Grep for the old
+       name to find every call site.
+
+    WORKFLOW:
+
+    1. Read the sprint briefing: docs/sprints/sprint-{N}/{team}.md
+    2. Read the decision files referenced in the briefing.
+    3. Check TaskList for available work.
+    4. Claim an unblocked task (TaskUpdate with owner: your name),
+       mark it in_progress, and implement it.
+    5. Before marking done, verify:
+       - All deliverables from the ticket exist (not just some)
+       - No broken references (grep for changed names/signatures)
+       - New files follow existing naming and directory conventions
+       - Modified files still parse (no syntax errors)
+    6. Mark the task completed and check TaskList for the next
+       available task.
+    7. If no tasks remain, message the team lead. Do NOT shut down
+       on your own.
+
+    Use `db/connectors/ticket show <id>` for full ticket specs.",
+  description: "Sprint {N} {team}: {name}",
+  run_in_background: true
+)
+```
+
+#### 8e. Report
+
+Output to the user:
+- Team name: `sprint-{N}-{team}`
+- Agents spawned (names and roles)
+- Tasks created (count actionable vs blocked)
+- How to interact: `SendMessage` to talk to agents, `TaskList` to
+  check progress
+
+You are now the team lead. Agents work autonomously — monitor via
+`TaskList`, communicate via `SendMessage`, and handle blockers as
+they arise.
+
+**When all tasks complete:** Do NOT shut down agents. The team stays
+alive through the PR review cycle. Follow step 9 (post-work lifecycle).
+
+### 9. Post-work lifecycle
+
+When all tasks are complete (TaskList shows all completed):
+
+#### 9a. Commit and push
+
+Run `/git-commit` to commit all changes, then `/pr-push` to create or
+update the PR. Do NOT shut down agents — the team stays alive for review.
+
+#### 9b. Review
+
+Run `/pr-review` to spawn temporary reviewers. Wait for results.
+
+#### 9c. Handle review outcome
+
+**If CHANGES_REQUESTED:**
+
+1. Parse the review comment table (from the Gitea PR comment or the
+   review output). Extract each warning/critical issue with:
+   - File path and approximate line
+   - Severity (critical / warning / suggestion)
+   - Description
+

+     activeForm: "Fixing review comment: {short description}"
+   )
+   ```
+   Skip suggestion-severity items unless they are trivial (1-line fixes).
+
+3. Dispatch to idle agents: send each a message via SendMessage telling
+   them to check TaskList for new review-fix tasks. Agents claim and
+   work tasks as usual.
+
+4. After all review-fix tasks are complete, re-run `/git-commit` then
+   `/pr-push` to update the PR. Then re-run `/pr-review`.
+
+5. Repeat this loop until review returns APPROVED.
+
+**If APPROVED:**
+
+1. Send `shutdown_request` to all sprint agents.
+2. Wait for all `shutdown_response` confirmations.
+3. Call `TeamDelete` to clean up.
+4. Report: "Sprint {N} {team} complete. PR #{X} approved and ready for
+   merge on main."

+# Sprint Status
+
+**Delegate this entire skill to a subagent** (general-purpose, model: haiku).
+
+When this skill is invoked, spawn a subagent using the Task tool:
+
+```
+Task(
+  subagent_type: "general-purpose",
+  model: "haiku",
+  prompt: "Run /sprint-status. Read the skill at
+    .claude/skills/sprint-status/SKILL.md for the full workflow
+    (below the --- separator), then execute it.",
+  description: "Sprint status report"
+)
+```
+
+Present the subagent's output to the user verbatim. Do NOT run the
+workflow yourself.
+
+---
+
+The remainder of this file is the subagent's reference for executing
+the workflow.
+
+## Step 1 — Gather data
+
+Run these two commands in parallel:
+
+```bash
+db/connectors/sprint sweep
+```
+
+```bash
+tea pr list --login schweitz --repo jpmschweitzer/settled-reach --state open --output simple
+```
+
+The `sweep` command returns JSON with:
+- `sprint` — id, name, goal
+- `progress` — total, done, pct
+- `by_status` — tickets grouped into done, review, in_progress, blocked, backlog
+- `by_team` — per-team counts
+- `issues` — bookkeeping problems with suggested fix commands
+
+The `tea pr list` returns open PRs as `#N title` lines.
+
+## Step 2 — Cross-reference PRs with tickets
+
+Parse PR head branches from the `tea pr list` output. Known team branches:
+`server`, `client`, `copy`, `audio`, `visual`, `ci`.
+
+Detect additional issues:
+
+- **done_team_open_pr**: A team's tickets are all done but an open PR
+  still exists for that team branch.
+- **orphan_pr**: An open PR exists on a branch that has no tickets in
+  the active sprint.
+
+Add these to the issues list from step 1.
+
+## Step 3 — Format output
+
+Read `references/output-template.md` for the exact format spec.
+
+Render the report using data from steps 1-2. Key rules:
+- Sections ordered: Completed, In Review, In Progress, Blocked, Backlog
+- Sort tickets within sections by team then ticket ID
+- Empty sections: show header with "(0)" and "(none)" — no empty table
+- Bookkeeping Issues: two-column table (Issue, Fix)
+- Open Work by Team: summary table at the bottom
+- Issue type labels: `stale_backlog` → "Stale backlog",
+  `unassigned_in_progress` → "Unassigned in_progress",
+  `assigned_but_done` → "Assigned but done",
+  `done_team_open_pr` → "Done team with open PR",
+  `orphan_pr` → "Orphan PR"
+
+## Step 4 — Suggest actions
+
+After the formatted report, if there are bookkeeping issues, add a
+"Suggested fixes" section with the fix command for each issue. Group
+by issue type for readability.

-
-# Start Sprint Skill
-
-Prepare a team branch for sprint work: sync with main, load the sprint
-briefing, and present actionable next steps.
-
-## Workflow
-
-### 1. Determine the team
-
-The current branch IS the team. Read it with:
-```bash
-git branch --show-current
-```
-
-Valid team branches: `server`, `client`, `copy`, `audio`, `visual`, `ci`.
-
-If on `main`, follow the **Main branch workflow** below instead of
-the team branch workflow (steps 2–8).
-
----
-
-## Main branch workflow (sprint close + version bump)
-
-When `/start-sprint` is run on `main`, it means the user wants to close
-the current sprint, cut a version, and prepare for the next one.
-
-### M1. Close the active sprint
-
-```bash
-db/connectors/sprint stop
-```
-
-This marks the active sprint as completed and lists carry-over candidates.
-Note the sprint number (N) from the output.
-
-### M2. Bump the version
-
-The project version scheme is `v0.1.{sprint_number}`. After closing
-sprint N, the version is `v0.1.N`.
-
-Update `CHANGELOG.md`:
-- Move all entries under `## [Unreleased]` into a new section
-  `## [v0.1.N] — YYYY-MM-DD` (using today's date).
-- Leave `## [Unreleased]` as an empty section above the new version.
-- Keep the existing sub-headings (Added, Fixed, Changed, Removed) —
-  only move entries that have content.
-
-### M3. Commit the release
-
-Stage and commit `CHANGELOG.md`:
-```
-chore(meta): release v0.1.N
-```
-
-### M4. Tag the release
-
-```bash
-git tag v0.1.N
-```
-
-### M5. Push
-
-```bash
-git push && git push --tags
-```
-
-### M6. Report
-
-Output a summary:
-- Sprint closed (name, done/total tickets, carry-over count)
-- Version tagged (`v0.1.N`)
-- Carry-over candidates (if any)
-- Suggest running `/plan-sprint` next to prepare the next sprint
-
----
-
-## Team branch workflow
-
-### 2. Sync with main
-
-```bash
-git fetch --all
-git merge origin/main --no-edit
-```
-
-If the merge has conflicts, report them and stop — do not force-resolve.
-
-### 3. Load sprint context
-
-Run the sprint CLI to get the full context dump in one shot:
-
-```bash
-db/connectors/sprint start-work
-```
-
-This auto-detects the active sprint and current team from the branch.
-It outputs: sprint metadata, briefing paths, decision refs, actionable
-tickets, blocked tickets, and done tickets.
-
-If no active sprint is found, report that and stop.
-
-### 4. Read the sprint briefing
-
-Read the briefing file(s) listed in the `start-work` output
-(e.g. `docs/sprints/sprint-6/server.md` and `joint.md`).
-If no matching briefing exists for the team, suggest running
-`/plan-sprint` to generate one.
-
-### 5. Load ticket details
-
-For tickets that need more detail than the `start-work` summary provides:
-```bash
-db/connectors/ticket show <id>
-```
-
-### 6. Read key decisions
-
-Read the decision files referenced in the sprint briefing so the agent has
-full architectural context before starting work.
-
-### 7. Mark tickets in progress and present the work plan
-
-Mark all actionable (unblocked, non-done) tickets in the sprint as
-`in_progress`:
-
-```bash
-db/connectors/ticket status <id> in_progress
-```
-
-Then output a summary:
-- Sprint name and goal
-- Branch status (clean merge or conflicts)
-- Tickets marked in_progress (list with IDs)
-- Blocked tickets (and what blocks them)
-- Key decisions loaded
-- Suggested first task (lowest ID unblocked ticket)
-
-### 8. Confirm and spawn the team
-
-Before spawning agents, use `AskUserQuestion` to confirm the work plan and
-agent lineup with the user. If declined, stop.
-
-Once confirmed:
-
-#### 8a. Parse agents from the briefing
-
-Extract agent names from the `**Agents:**` line. Format:
-```
-**Agents:** Name (role), Name (role), ...
-```
-
-Map each name to its `subagent_type` (lowercase):
-- "Dudley (simulation)" → `dudley`
-- "Stig (UI)" → `stig`
-- "Tyre (architecture)" → `tyre`
-- "Hoshe (QA)" → `hoshe`
-- "Mellanie (author)" → `mellanie`
-- etc. (see `.claude/agents/` for full roster)
-
-#### 8b. Create the team
-
-```
-TeamCreate(team_name: "sprint-{N}-{team}")
-```
-
-This makes you the team lead.
-
-#### 8c. Create tasks from tickets
-
-For each ticket in the briefing, create a task:
-
-```
-TaskCreate(
-  subject: "#{id}: {title}",
-  description: "Full ticket details from step 5, plus briefing notes
-    and integration points for this ticket.",
-  activeForm: "Working on #{id}: {short_title}"
-)
-```
-
-After creating all tasks, mirror the dependency chain from the briefing
-using `TaskUpdate` with `addBlockedBy`.
-
-#### 8d. Spawn agents
-
-For each agent from the `**Agents:**` line, spawn a teammate in the
-background. Spawn all agents in parallel (one message, multiple Task calls):
-
-```
-Task(
-  subagent_type: "{name_lowercase}",
-  team_name: "sprint-{N}-{team}",
-  name: "{name_lowercase}",
-  prompt: "You are on the {team} team for Sprint {N}.
-    Branch: `{team}`
-
-    1. Read the sprint briefing: docs/sprints/sprint-{N}/{team}.md
-    2. Read the decision files referenced in the briefing.
-    3. Check TaskList for available work.
-    4. Claim an unblocked task (TaskUpdate with owner: your name),
-       mark it in_progress, and implement it.
-    5. When done, mark the task completed and check TaskList for
-       the next available task.
-
-    Use `db/connectors/ticket show <id>` for full ticket specs.",
-  description: "Sprint {N} {team}: {name}",
-  run_in_background: true
-)
-```
-
-#### 8e. Report
-
-Output to the user:
-- Team name: `sprint-{N}-{team}`
-- Agents spawned (names and roles)
-- Tasks created (count actionable vs blocked)
-- How to interact: `SendMessage` to talk to agents, `TaskList` to
-  check progress
-
-You are now the team lead. Agents work autonomously — monitor via
-`TaskList`, communicate via `SendMessage`, and handle blockers as
-they arise.

 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [v0.1.20] — 2026-02-25
+
+### Added
+- Social site template schema — RoleSchema (#163), SpaceSpec (#164), TriangleDef (#106) with YAML deserialization, sample templates at server/data/templates/
+- Single-ownership model — TemplateOwnership component, TemplateReferenceMap resource, cross-template reference links preserved across save/load and tier eviction (#165, D-025)
+- Triangle generation — intra-template constraint satisfaction assigns NPCs to triangle roles, minimum 2 triangles per template with fallback on imperfect seeds (#107)
+- Triangle escalation system — tick_triangle_escalation runs per game-minute, tension increments toward ToleranceThreshold, TriangleCrisisEvent emitted on Active phase entry, ResolveTriangle stub command (#250, D-087)
+- Protocol v16 — TriangleCrisisEventWire on ObserverSnapshot for future client rendering of triangle crises
+- D-093: Sova Transit District spatial layout — 4 social sites (Terminal, Bar, Gate Cluster, Sector 3), 2 encounter nodes, zone palette, gate cluster 7-zone spec, z-level scheme (z=0 maintenance, z=1 main, z=2 observation gallery), 3 investigation paths, corridor widths
+- D-094: Spatial hierarchy — chunk (64×64 sim) → block (128×128 sim) → district (4×4 blocks, 256×256 visual), supersedes D-014 estimate
+- D-095: Horizon stations and transport lore — span gates (human-built, dual-use), horizon stations (alien-built, 4-8 apertures), "The Ring" per-system naming, sequential hop travel, The Loop internal tram
+- Generator architecture workshop brief (ticket #562) — top-down pipeline for district generation, targeting Q-036 resolution
+- SnapshotEventRouter — callable-based snapshot dispatch replaces inline if-has blocks in main.gd (#559)
+- YamlParser shared utility — unified YAML parsing for UI strings and checklist conditions (#560)
+
+### Fixed
+- Wire triangle crisis event queue into observer snapshot — clients now receive TriangleCrisisEventWire via protocol v16 (was always empty)
+- Persist TriangleState in SaveStateV1 — triangle phase and tension survive save/load cycles
+- Validate dangling with_role references in TriangleDef constraint validation
+- Replace O(n²) fallback NPC assignment with BTreeSet; prevent same NPC assigned to two roles in one triangle
+- Replace O(N*M) scan in apply_resolve_triangle with BTreeMap index for O(1) per-command lookup
+- Add From impls for RoleId, TriangleId, StableId, TriangleCrisisEventWire — eliminate fragile .0 newtype access
+- Consolidate near-identical unit tests with integration counterparts
+
+### Changed
+- Sova station profile updated — horizon gates located at The Krenn Ring (800 AU), not on Station Sova; Admin Hub houses transit processing facility only
+- game_state.gd: stationary_ticks and zone_id now read from server snapshot with deprecated client-side fallbacks (#557, D-020)
+- dialogue_box.gd: decoupled from GameState and AudioManager via signals — zero direct autoload references (#558, D-020)
+- main.gd: snapshot dispatch via SnapshotEventRouter, dialogue signal coordinator handlers (#559, #558)
+- ui_strings.gd and checklist_evaluator.gd: delegate to YamlParser, ~140 lines of duplication removed (#560)

 ### Worktree boundaries
 
-This project uses **git worktrees** in a shared parent directory (`settled-reach/`). Each team branch (`server`, `client`, `copy`, `audio`, `visual`, `ci`) is checked out in its own worktree under that parent. The parent directory also contains shared resources like the ticketing database.
+This project uses **git worktrees** in a shared parent directory (`settled-reach/`). Each team branch (`server`, `client`, `copy`, `audio`, `visual`, `ci`) has its own worktree. The worktree root IS the git root.
 
-Each worktree contains the full repository: `server/` (Rust backend), `client/` (Godot client), `docs/`, `decisions/`, etc. The worktree root IS the git root — use `git rev-parse --show-toplevel` if in doubt.
-
-Unless there is a direct instruction or a functional need (e.g. accessing the shared database in the parent directory), **all work must remain within the scope of the git root Claude is running in.**
-
-- All file paths are relative to the worktree/git root (e.g. `server/src/bridge/types.rs`, `client/scripts/rendering/fog.gd`).
-- Do not navigate to or access sibling worktrees in the parent directory (`../client/`, `../copy/`, etc.) unless explicitly instructed.
-- Do not navigate above the git root unless explicitly instructed.
+- **All work must remain within the git root** unless explicitly instructed otherwise.
+- All file paths are relative to the worktree root (e.g. `server/src/bridge/types.rs`).
+- Do not navigate to or access sibling worktrees (`../client/`, `../copy/`, etc.) unless explicitly instructed.
+- **Exception — stale git lock files:** Worktree index locks live in the shared `.git` directory (e.g. `main/.git/worktrees/copy/index.lock`). If a `git` command fails with `index.lock: File exists`, you may remove the lock file for **your own worktree only**. Never touch lock files belonging to other worktrees.

 3. Read the relevant `decisions/*.md` domain file(s) referenced in the briefing
 4. Background context: `docs/briefings/{your-name}.md`, `docs/discussions/`
 
-### Ticket and database access
-**Prefer the ticket CLI over raw SQL.** The CLI handles column names, joins, and output formatting correctly:
-```bash
-db/connectors/ticket list --sprint 2 --team server
-db/connectors/ticket show 78
-db/connectors/ticket sprint --active
-```
+### CLI tools
 
-### Sprint CLI
-**Use the sprint CLI for sprint-scoped operations.** It batches ticket queries and formats output for agent consumption:
-```bash
-db/connectors/sprint status                    # Current sprint progress
-db/connectors/sprint status --team server      # Team-scoped view
-db/connectors/sprint start-work --team client  # Full context dump for starting work
-db/connectors/sprint prepare                   # Prepare next sprint (candidates + gaps)
-db/connectors/sprint start                     # Activate a planned sprint
-db/connectors/sprint stop                      # Complete an active sprint
-```
-Team is auto-detected from the current git branch (if not `main`). Sprint is auto-detected from DB state.
+**Prefer CLI wrappers over raw SQL.** Never use the `sqlite3` CLI — it crashes in Claude Code (std::bad_alloc). Use the wrapper scripts instead.
 
-Only fall back to raw SQL for queries the CLI doesn't support. **Never use the `sqlite3` CLI** — it crashes in Claude Code due to a known std::bad_alloc bug. Use the wrapper scripts instead:
-```bash
-db/connectors/sqlite-query "SELECT * FROM tickets WHERE status='in_progress'"
-db/connectors/sqlite-exec "UPDATE tickets SET status='done' WHERE id=1"
-```
-
-### Qdrant / document search
-```bash
-db/connectors/qdrant-search "asymmetric information design"
-db/connectors/qdrant-index docs/briefings/tyre.md
-db/connectors/qdrant-health
-db/connectors/qdrant-count
-```
-
-### Gitea access (tea CLI)
-**Never access the Gitea API directly** — use the `tea` CLI with all required flags to bypass interactive mode.
-
-Always pass `--login schweitz --repo jpmschweitzer/settled-reach --output simple` to avoid TTY prompts.
-
-```bash
-# List open PRs
-tea pr list --login schweitz --repo jpmschweitzer/settled-reach --state open --output simple
-
-# View a PR with comments
-tea pr --login schweitz --repo jpmschweitzer/settled-reach --comments -o simple <PR_NUMBER>
-
-# Post a comment on a PR (or issue)
-tea comment --login schweitz --repo jpmschweitzer/settled-reach <NUMBER> "comment body"
-
-# Approve a PR
-tea pr approve --login schweitz --repo jpmschweitzer/settled-reach <PR_NUMBER>
-
-# List issues
-tea issue list --login schweitz --repo jpmschweitzer/settled-reach --state open --output simple
-```
-
-Key rules:
-- **All flags must be explicit** — omitting `--login` or `--repo` triggers interactive prompts that crash in Claude Code (no TTY)
-- **Use `--output simple`** for machine-readable output (no table borders)
-- **`tea pr reject` does not work on your own PRs** — use `tea comment` instead
-- **Never delete protected branches:** `main`, `maintenance`, `server`, `client`, `copy`, `audio`, `visual`, `ci` are protected on Gitea. Do not use `tea pr clean`, `git push --delete`, or `git branch -D` on these branches.
+| Tool | Command | Full reference |
+|------|---------|----------------|
+| Tickets | `db/connectors/ticket list`, `show`, `create`, `assign` | `/ticket` skill |
+| Sprints | `db/connectors/sprint status`, `start-work`, `prepare` | `/sprint-start` skill |
+| SQL queries | `db/connectors/sqlite-query "SELECT ..."` | — |
+| SQL writes | `db/connectors/sqlite-exec "UPDATE ..."` | — |
+| Decisions | `db/connectors/decision next`, `claim`, `check-dupes` | — |
+| Doc search | `db/connectors/qdrant-search "query"` | `/docs-search` skill |
+| Doc index | `db/connectors/qdrant-index path/to/file.md` | `/docs-search` skill |
 
 ### File conventions
 - Decisions: domain files in `decisions/` (see `decisions/README.md` for index)
 - Decision IDs: `D-NNN` (confirmed), `Q-NNN` (open questions), `R-NNN` (rejected)
+- **Claim IDs before writing:** `db/connectors/decision claim D <domain> "title"` — prevents ID collisions across worktrees
+- Diagrams: `.d2` source + `.png` renders in `docs/diagrams/{category}/`. Create or update diagrams via `/d2-diagram` when D-records are added or modified.
 - Discussion rounds: numbered sequentially, archived to `docs/discussions/` when complete
 - Briefings: one per agent, updated after decision-producing rounds
 - Tickets: managed via `db/connectors/ticket` CLI or `/ticket` skill
-
-### Commit conventions
-Use conventional commits with project-specific scopes:
-`agents`, `skills`, `docs`, `briefings`, `discussions`, `schema`, `db`, `config`, `engine`, `simulation`, `client`, `ui`, `audio`, `assets`, `meta`
-
-### Pull requests
-**Use `tea` (Gitea CLI), not `gh` (GitHub CLI).** The remote is Gitea at `git.schweitz.internal`.
-
-Always provide all required flags to ensure non-interactive execution:
-```bash
-tea pr create \
-  --repo jpmschweitzer/settled-reach \
-  --login schweitz \
-  --title "feat(scope): short description" \
-  --description "PR body here" \
-  --base main \
-  --head branch-name
-```
-
-### Large content pushes (team pattern)
-When producing many files (wiki pages, content batches, bulk docs):
-1. **Lore librarian** agent (read-only): ingests all source material, answers focused context queries from writers, tracks cross-file consistency
-2. **Multiple writer** agents (parallel, by domain): each gets a task slice, writes directly to disk using the Write tool — one file at a time, write often, no text accumulation
-3. **Reviewer** agents (blocked until writing done): check voice consistency, attribute uniformity, style
-
-Key: writers use Write tool directly (no transcription bottleneck), librarian catches contradictions early, split work by domain not volume.
-
-### Local services
-- Gitea: `http://git.schweitz.internal` (login: `schweitz`)
-- Qdrant: `http://tower-of-joy:6333/`
-- Ollama: `http://tower-of-joy:11434/` (nomic-embed-text)
