Replace every occurrence of "Krenn" with "Van Maanen's Star" (or contextual variants like VMS for locale codes, Van Maanen for proper noun contexts). Covers CHANGELOG, briefings, workshop docs, sprint briefings, environmental text examples, templates, ticker content, and architecture docs.

# Sprint 25: Emerge — Copy Tasks
|
|
|
|
**Goal:** Prove the generator can extrapolate from minimal input — a rural Van Maanen's Star area AND an industrial Van Maanen's Star zone from zone type and culture profile alone, no per-location spec. Two zone types, one culture, side-by-side comparison.
|
|
|
|
**Branch:** `copy`
|
|
**Agents:** Miri (worldbuilding lead), Mellanie (voice/dialogue review)
|

## Key Decisions
|
|
|
|
- `decisions/scope.md` — D-114 (generator-first proof-of-life), D-119 (generator spike critical path)
|
|
- `decisions/content.md` — D-121 (voice is culture-driven, job as modifier), D-122 (all NPCs generated), D-128 (culture implicit in starting location), D-129 (NPC personality: traits + behavior first)
|
|
- `decisions/architecture.md` — D-012 (chunk-based map, borderless generation future)
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
**How this sprint works for copy**
|
|
|
|
Server starts first. Tyre (#611) defines `ZoneSpec`, `CultureProfile`, and `NpcBlueprint` as Rust structs and writes example RON files showing the expected format. The Rust structs ARE the schema — no separate schema file to maintain. Copy fills real content into that format.
|
|
|
|
Wait for #611 to deliver its example RON before writing the real files. Tyre also ships a **RON validator CLI** (`tooling/validate-content <file.ron>`) that deserializes into the actual Rust structs and prints errors. Use it to lint your files before submitting.
|
|
|
|
Coordinate with Tyre at sprint start to agree on file locations (`content/global/zone-identity-spec.ron` and `content/global/culture-van-maanens-star.ron` are the expected paths, but Tyre's struct design is authoritative).
|
|
|
|
**#609 — Zone identity spec**
|
|
|
|
- Output: RON file the generator deserializes at runtime. Schema defined by Tyre's `ZoneSpec` struct from #611.
|
|
- Minimum two zone types with real content: **rural** and **industrial**. These are the two the sprint proof runs. Remaining types can be stubs with plausible values.
|
|
- The taxonomy must make the generator produce visibly different output per zone type — if rural and industrial look the same, it has failed.
|
|
- Content scope: what varies between zone types (density, pace, social site mix, NPC role distribution). Not prose worldbuilding — structured parameters that the Rust generator can read.
|
|
- Do not invent the schema. Read #611's example RON first.
|
|
|
|
**#610 — Van Maanen's Star culture profile**
|
|
|
|
- Output: RON file the generator deserializes at runtime. Schema defined by Tyre's `CultureProfile` struct from #611.
|
|
- Must provide enough cultural signal that generated NPCs feel Van Maanen's Star, not generic-space-village.
|
|
- Sprint scope: **name lists** (not phoneme generation rules — Tyre's generator picks from lists), speech markers, economic values, social norms.
|
|
- Phoneme-based name generation is explicitly out of scope for this sprint. A curated list of Van Maanen's Star-sounding names is sufficient.
|
|
- Existing Van Maanen's Star atmosphere and naming examples in `decisions/content.md` D-036 (amended post-workshop) are a starting point. Go deeper on concrete values (specific speech markers, actual name examples) not broader on atmospheric description.
|
|
- Do not invent the schema. Read #611's example RON first.
|
|
|
|
## Dependency Chain
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
server #611 (schema + validator) ──> #609 (zone spec RON) ──┐
|
|
├──> server #612 (generator)
|
|
──> #610 (culture RON) ──────┘
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Server defines the shape. Copy fills it. Both #609 and #610 can be written in parallel once #611 delivers its example RON.

## PR Workflow
|
|
|
|
When ready to submit, create a PR with `tea` CLI. All flags are required to avoid TTY prompts (see CLAUDE.md "Gitea access" section):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
tea pr create --repo jpmschweitzer/settled-reach --login schweitz --title "feat(copy): zone identity spec and Van Maanen's Star culture profile" --description "body" --base main --head copy
|
|
```
