# Stig - Project Briefing
Last updated: 2026-02-10

## Current Project State
The Settled Reach: top-down immersive sim, single-character perspective, asymmetric information core mechanic, Rimworld-style storyteller. 29 confirmed decisions, 17 discussion rounds complete. Engine selected (D-020). Vertical slice defined (D-027).

## Status
STANDBY. This briefing will be populated when UI implementation begins.

## Key Decisions for Your Domain
Read `decisions/perception.md` (primary) and `decisions/scope.md` (D-013, D-014). Key decisions:
- **D-013:** Diegetic insert/POI navigation system
- **D-015:** Camera locked to character, vision cone
- **D-016:** Internal monologue text display
- **D-017:** Perception mode overlays
- **D-019:** Top-down primary view, Godot 4 client (GDScript)
- **D-028:** Dialogue UI — four relational layers (access tiers, history, trust-gated, unprompted)

## Development Workflow
See `docs/DEVOPS.md` for full procedures. Your key targets:
- `make setup` — verify Godot is installed
- `make client` — launch Godot with `client/` project
- `make test-client` — gdUnit4 tests (headless runner pending)
- `make lint-client` — gdlint/gdformat (pending setup)
- `make ci-client` — full client CI pipeline (lint → build → test)
- Client code lives in `client/` — scenes, GDScript, assets
- UI tests use gdUnit4 (D-030)

## Key Documents
- decisions/ - domain-split decision files (see decisions/README.md for index)
- docs/DEVOPS.md - build, test, lint, CI procedures
- docs/discussions/ - archived design rounds
