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.

Sprint 2: See — Server Tasks

Goal: Fog of perception working through the bridge — server computes LOS visibility, client renders fog.

Branch: server Agents: Dudley (simulation), Oscar (networking)

Design Tasks

Key Decisions

decisions/perception.md — D-011 (fog non-negotiable), D-015 (locked camera + vision cone), D-018 (three-range sound model)
decisions/architecture.md — D-010 (information boundaries), D-020 (ObserverSnapshot), D-031 (time system), D-041 (Knowledge Graph Data Model)
docs/workshops/knowledge-graph-information-boundaries/round2-synthesis.md — canonical reference for knowledge graph structs and Sprint 2 scope

Open Questions to Resolve Early

Q-018 (#359): Shadowcasting algorithm selection — symmetric (Albert Ford) vs recursive. Needs benchmarking at 150x150 scale. Resolve before #110 starts.
Q-019 (#360): Entity ID stability — how entity_id: u64 maps to bevy Entity. Affects client entity lifecycle. (Joint ticket, blocks #130.)
Q-021: Tick budget overflow policy — what happens when a tick exceeds 100ms. (Not yet ticketed.)

Notes

#236 (Sprint 1, done): WalkabilityMap and validate_movement are implemented (server/src/simulation/movement.rs). Walls are both collision barriers AND LOS occluders — the shadowcasting system reads the walkability map (or a parallel opacity map) to determine what blocks vision.
#110: Core of the sprint. Implement LOS calculation per z-level. Output: set of visible tiles for a given observer position.
#111: Vision cone sectors (forward/peripheral/behind per D-015). Facing direction component needed. Forward = full LOS range, peripheral = reduced range + dimmer, behind = blind. The cone modulates the shadowcast output.
#112: Given an observer entity, return visible entities and tiles. This is the system that populates ObserverSnapshot.entities with only what the observer can see. Currently the snapshot includes ALL entities (no filtering). This ticket adds the filter.
#25: SimulationTime already exists (server/src/simulation/time.rs) with tick/pause/day-phase. Remaining: include time data in ObserverSnapshot so the client can display it. May also need FacingDirection component for vision cone.
ObserverSnapshot expansion: The ObserverSnapshot struct (server/src/bridge/types.rs) needs new fields: visible_tiles: Vec<VisibleTile> (or bitmap), player_facing: Direction, game_time: TimeData. Design this before implementation starts.

Dependency Chain

#359 (Q-018) → #110 (shadowcast) → #111 (vision cone) ──┐
#361 (KnowledgeGraph) ─┬─→ #112 (observer query) → ...  │
#362 (StableEntityId) ─┘                                  │
#358 (snapshot v2) → #112, #113, #25  ────────────────────┘
#25 (time) → parallel track, blocked by #358

Knowledge graph parallel track:
#361, #362 (day 1-3, no blockers) → #363, #364 (day 3-4) → #365, #367 (parallel)
