jpmschweitzerandClaude Opus 4.6 93abd9b9d0 docs(workshops): complete Knowledge Graph & Information Boundaries workshop
Two-round workshop producing D-041 (Knowledge Graph Data Model):
- Round 1: independent analyses from Dudley, Gestalt, SI, Tyre, Paula
- Round 2: synthesis resolving debates + Gestalt mechanics validation

Key decisions:
- 4-level confidence hierarchy (Suspects < KnowsOf < KnowsDetails < Direct)
- BTreeMap for deterministic iteration (D-010 principle 4)
- Per-entity Component model, not centralized Resource
- StableEntityId + EntityRegistry for save/load stability (partial Q-019)
- Sprint 2 stub: structs + direct observation + basic decay (~6.5 dev-days)

Resolved Q-016 (knowledge hierarchy), raised Q-024/Q-025/Q-026.
Created tickets #361-#368 under epic #351, reconciled #49 children.
Updated sprint 2 briefings, agent briefings, and decision files.

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:

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
