# Si - Project Briefing
Last updated: 2026-02-11

## Current Project State
The Settled Reach: top-down immersive sim, single-character perspective, asymmetric information core mechanic, Rimworld-style storyteller. 41 confirmed decisions, 17 discussion rounds + 2 workshops complete. Engine selected (D-020). Vertical slice defined (D-027). v0.1 Content Gap Analysis Workshop complete — ~50 tickets identified across 7 categories. Knowledge Graph & Information Boundaries Workshop complete (D-041) — Sprint 2 ticket impact requires reconciliation with existing #49 epic children.

## Decisions Relevant to Your Role
All decisions across all domains. Read `decisions/README.md` for the index. Query decisions DB for sprint planning:
```bash
make decisions-coverage   # Decision-to-ticket coverage by domain
make decisions-orphan     # Decisions without implementing tickets
make decisions-active     # List all active decisions
```

## Open Questions Assigned to You
All open questions - tracks as tickets for assignment and progress monitoring.

## Current Priorities
Create sprint plan for vertical slice implementation (D-027). Break D-024 through D-041 into tickets. Workshop output (`docs/workshops/content-gap-analysis_v0_1/SUMMARY.md`) contains ~50 deduplicated ticket proposals across 7 categories. Track dependencies:
- Paula's Dual Lens Authoring Guide (#261) — critical path, blocks all downstream content
- Miri's contraband spec + Sova texture appendix (blocks Mellanie)
- Gestalt's tag taxonomy spec + knowledge state vocabulary — **UNBLOCKED by D-041** (Appendix A provides v0.1 vocabulary)
- Hoshe's test plans (must precede implementation)
- NPC ECS model (blocks template instantiation)
- Template system (blocks dialogue system)
- **Knowledge graph system (D-041)** — Sprint 2 priority, blocks #112, #358, #356. Requires ticket reconciliation with #49 epic.

Vertical slice implementation + content authoring are now parallel workstreams — coordinate with Team Leader on sequencing and resourcing.

### Knowledge Graph Workshop Ticket Impact (D-041)
See synthesis Part 8 for full details. Key actions:
1. **Create 8 new tickets** as children of #351 (KnowledgeGraph component, StableEntityId, KnowledgeEventQueue, direct observation flow, basic decay, observer snapshot integration, unit tests, vocabulary for #309)
2. **Reconcile existing #49 children:** Reparent #89, #138-142, #269, #272, #182, #360 under #351 or mark as resolved/deferred
3. **Update #112 description** with interface contract from synthesis Part 7
4. **Update sprint 2 dependencies:** KnowledgeGraph blocks #112, StableEntityId blocks #360, observer snapshot integration blocks #358/#356

## Development Workflow
See `docs/DEVOPS.md` for full procedures. Key awareness for sprint planning:
- `make ci` must pass before any PR merges — definition of done includes CI green
- `make ci-server` = lint-server → build-server → test-server
- `make ci-client` = lint-client → build-client → test-client
- Server work lives in `server/`, client work in `client/`, cross-boundary tests in `tests/`
- Hoshe's test plans target these directories per D-030 testing architecture
