The spec stays normative: 5.4 now describes the slower trickle playback
(1000 ms rounds, per-node appearance moments, live counting) that Justin
converged on during implementation, 5.3 the readable seed range, section
6 the taller viewBox and anisotropic layout forces, and StudyPreset its
readingCaption field.
The M4 handoff covers the single-binary embed (with the go:embed vs
gitignored-dist decision called out), Dockerfile, GHCR workflow, and the
Portainer/Caddy stack, plus the traps M3 paid for: lockfile
regeneration, the prettier ignore on generated types, screenshot
helpers, and reviewing perceptual work live.
Self-contained brief for the frontend implementation session: current
state (slice 1 done, /api/scenario live, parity page to be replaced),
the normative pointers (ui-spec.md, approved mockup), method (drive
Vue fast, the design bar and how to self-check against it with
headless screenshots, tmux dev stack, per-slice commits, a11y as you
go), the four remaining micro-choices to batch into one question
round, and first steps.
One panel's whole world in one call: effective config in, echoed
config + cascade result + undirected edge list out. Edges are
[from, to] pairs with from < to in deterministic node order;
Graph.Edges() walks the adjacency once, GraphEdges(config) rebuilds
the seeded world (~25us) so Result stays lean and /api/comparison
stays untouched. This closes the topology gap the design brief
flagged; the frontend's seeded d3-force layout consumes these pairs.
Go bits: [][2]int is a slice of fixed-size arrays; [2]int is a value
type, comparable, and JSON-marshals to [a, b], exactly the wire
shape the spec asks for.
tygo regen includes a fix: engine.Strategy now maps to the generated
Strategy type instead of decaying to 'any' in ScenarioRequest.
Verified live through the dev stack: 7/120 reached, 351 edges.
The design session runs in the VS Code extension from the course
workspace, one level above this repo; spell every referenced path from
there so nothing depends on the session's working directory.
Self-contained setup for a dedicated design session: product goal and
audience, the inherited visual language from the Python prototype,
what exists today (including the API's missing graph-topology
endpoint, a known gap), the locked decisions the spec must respect,
the questions it must answer (accessibility criteria among them, still
undefined), and the required shape of the deliverable, docs/ui-spec.md.
Design before build; the implementation session executes the spec.
