Workshop Outcomes: v0.1 Content Scoping
Workshop: v0.1 Content Scoping
Date: 2026-02-12
Rounds: 2 + closing round (lead resolutions)
Participants: Gestalt, Paula, Tyre, Mellanie, Stig, Dudley, Si, Qatux
Facilitator: Jeroen
Documenter: Qatux
Status: CLOSED — all recoverable decisions filed, tickets created

What the Workshop Accomplished
Applied the Wiki Review's long-term generator strategy to the immediate v0.1 hand-authored proof. Produced 20 decisions (D-042 through D-061), 38 new tickets, canonical NPC mapping for 17 characters, the 16-key EntityKnowledge specification, full content directory architecture, and a Sprint 3-5 roadmap. Tyre and Dudley independently produced structurally identical ObserverSnapshot v3 definitions without coordination — confirmed the architecture was sound. Lead issued 4 decisions resolving the major Round 1 disagreements between rounds, then resolved 3 remaining questions in a closing round.
Note on decision IDs: Several IDs assigned at this workshop collided with later numbering. Genuinely new decisions identified in retrospect were filed as D-087 (content directory structure), D-089 (NPC canonical mapping method), D-091 (EntityKnowledge 16-key canonical set), Q-031 through Q-034.
Decisions Produced
From Round 1 Consensus (7)
| ID | Decision | Domain |
|---|---|---|
| D-042 | Drin promoted from Tier 3 to Tier 2 | content.md |
| D-043 | THE NOBODY mechanic deferred to v0.2; hidden data ships in v0.1 content | scope.md |
| D-044 | v0.1 interaction model: 7 verbs (Move, Look, Monologue, Examine Object, Examine NPC, Talk, Overhear) | scope.md |
| D-045 | v0.1 scope IN: news ticker, PC-as-NPC, time progression, relationship state transitions | scope.md |
| D-046 | v0.1 scope OUT: inventory, stealth, combat, save/load, lattice modification | scope.md |
| D-047 | v0.1 triangles: 3 active forks (T1, T2, T4), 2 passive tensions (T3, T5) | content.md |
| D-048 | Client receives all text from server via state updates; client does not load content files | architecture.md |
From Round 2 + Closing (13)
| ID | Decision | Domain |
|---|---|---|
| D-049 | YAML is the content file format for v0.1; RON is optional build-time optimization | architecture.md |
| D-050 | Gestalt's NPC pattern/motivation mapping canonical for v0.1; Paula's emotional layer becomes v0.2 annotations | content.md |
| D-051 | v0.1 ships single context-sensitive verb; multi-verb architecture modeled underneath | architecture.md |
| D-052 | 3-state pause: Normal (100%), Overlay (50%), Paused (0%); server-authoritative | architecture.md |
| D-053 | Self-contained triangle forks for v0.1; no cross-triangle cascade (v0.2) | content.md |
| D-054 | ObserverSnapshot v3: adds sim_speed, nearby_interactions, active_dialogue, monologue, overheard, knowledge_updates, examine_result, ticker_headlines | architecture.md |
| D-055 | 16 EntityKnowledge keys; 4 new role-perspective keys; trust_read merged into trust_level; secret_held → leverage_held | architecture.md |
| D-056 | PC voice registers: smuggler (feeling-first, fragments, physical); detective (analysis-first, complete sentences, institutional) | content.md |
| D-057 | Content directory: content/ with _schema/, global/, districts/ top-level split; JSON Schema validation at build time | process.md |
| D-058 | THE FRIEND content pack template: Kael Davan, 91 lines across 5 arc phases | content.md |
| D-059 | Monologue display: 160 char max, 2-line max, 4-6s display, 2s cooldown, queue depth 1, 9-level priority | architecture.md |
| D-060 | actions[] renamed to verbs[] across all surfaces | architecture.md |
| D-061 | No ticket merges across domain teams | process.md |
Retrospective Filings (ID collisions resolved)
| ID | Decision | Domain |
|---|---|---|
| D-087 | Content directory structure (content/ split) | process.md |
| D-089 | Canonical NPC pattern/motivation mapping method | content.md |
| D-091 | EntityKnowledge 16-key canonical specification | architecture.md |
Open Questions Carried Forward
| ID | Question | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Q-031 | NPC surnames for Drin, Sess, Tav awaiting Miri validation | Informational |
| Q-032 | Interaction struct naming: AvailableActions (Tyre) vs EntityInteractions (Dudley) | Resolved at implementation |
| Q-033 | 695 authored items: validated as scope input but not independently verified | Informational |
| Q-034 | Dialogue max-width: pixel value for 20% height / max-width constraint | Pending lead call |
None blocked Sprint 3.
Tickets Created
38 new tickets + 10 existing ticket updates. See si-ticket-changes.md for full list.
Teams: copy (21), server (13), client (2), ci (1).
Critical path: #261 (Dual Lens Authoring Guide) is the single biggest blocker — directly blocks 9 downstream tickets across the content pipeline. Five-day time-box recommended.
| Series | Count | Domain |
|---|---|---|
| A (Wiki content fixes) | 8 | copy |
| B (Style guides + specs) | 5 | copy |
| C (Content directory + schemas) | 10 | copy/server/ci |
| D (Design specs) | 2 | server/copy |
| NEW 1-7 (Workshop rounds) | 7 | copy |
| NEW 8-14 (Lead decisions, excl. killed NEW-12) | 6 | server/client |
Killed: NEW-12 (client pause state machine — pause is server-authoritative, client sends IPC command only).
Sprint allocation: Sprint 3 — foundations and specs. Sprint 4 — content conversion and authoring begins. Sprint 5+ — content at scale.
NPC Canonical Mapping (17 NPCs)
The Gestalt-Paula synthesis produced the v0.1 canonical pattern/motivation mapping for all 17 Sova NPCs. This is the authoritative reference for content authoring.
| Name | Tier | Pattern | Motivation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kael Davan | T1 | FRIEND | OPERATOR |
| Sera Venn | T1 | FRIEND | WITNESS |
| Naia Tamm | T1* | MIRROR | CIVILIAN |
| Voss, Lera, Torek, Devra, Maret, Resha, Drin, Renn, Pell, Harek | T2 | (varied) | (varied) |
| Sess, Olin, Sabel, Tav | T3 | (varied) | (varied) |
Off-stage: Nils Davan — GHOST + HANDLER.
