00:40 PT. M10.3 said DONE but did not tag alpha

• What happened: M10.3 (Haiku) ended DONE, but its own last line says the golden-path PIE drive failed on integration 86d66d2. The Confession scorecard did not register the K keep. The suspect is M12.22's Enhanced Input change for gamepad. M10 was not closed and no alpha tag was pushed.
• Decided: I posted M12.22.fix1 to find and fix the keep binding so keyboard and pad both work, then rerun the drive to a pass. I kicked it to the front of lane B. I posted M10.3.1, depending on the fix, to rerun the golden path and push the alpha tag. M11.2 stays held until M10 closes.
• Why: the alpha tag gates M11.2, M15.2 and M16.2. A DONE that is really a failure would otherwise sit unseen.
• For later: the runner accepted a DONE whose text says the work failed. The recovery step should catch "DONE ... not closed / failed / stopped" as blocked. I have not changed the code tonight.

14 Nov

00:45 PT. M12.5.1.AD card: 2 head albedos rejected 4 times in a row

• Files: Brown (lip seam, hair grey in the nostrils and ears) and Mary-Grace (eye islands off-tone, cheek seam).
• Decided: I did not run another hand repaint. I posted M12.5.1.fix4: a scripted texture-space pass (island dilation, feathered seam blend, skin-tone sampling) on only the listed defects. It is the last automatic round for these two files, and the milestone is not held on them.
• Why: four repaint rounds did not converge, and lane A has already moved on to M12.5.2. A different technique has the best chance. I have not judged the heads myself; you see the result in the morning.

14 Nov

01:20 PT. Lane B idle at the end of each run window

• Found: lane B was idle from 00:49 PT, with two kicked tasks ready. A slot starts a new task only when at least 45 minutes remain in the 2.5 h run window. So at the end of every window, a lane that finished waits until the other lane's task ends the run. That is up to 45 minutes idle per lane per window.
• Decided: I lengthened the run window to about 6 h (hostjobs timeout_s 9000 to 21000, Windmill job timeout 9300 to 21600). Each task's own 2 h limit is unchanged. This is PR #429 in saluca-windmill, merged by me on green CI. It needs no service restart.

14 Nov

02:00 PT. First automatic landing: relay speech endpoints

• The code: saluca-windmill PR #428 (completed tasks may hand off to the landing step; it may push the task's branch, never main or base).
• Still to come: switching the relay on stays under R23. It needs M12.17.3 and M12.17.6 proven and a live smoke test, and only alfred flips it on.

14 Nov

02:10 PT. My key fix lost its kick to an id collision

• Found: the 1st AD's recovery had already posted its own HUD fix as M12.22.fix1, the same id as my keep-key fix. The kick (keyed by task id) went to that task, and my fix stayed pending while lane B moved on.
• Decided: I re-posted the key fix as M12.22.fix9 and the alpha re-run as M10.3.2 (depends on it), kicked M12.22.fix9, and closed the two old posts as superseded.
• For later: hand-posted fix ids should be checked against the queue before posting, or the kick should key on the mesh id. Not changed tonight.

14 Nov

02:36 to 03:20 PT. Lane A idle after a transient failure; run restarted

• Found: M12.5.2 failed at 02:36 on a 120 s git checkout timeout, before any runner started. A by-hand retry took 2 s, so it was transient, probably a lock left by the previous task. The runner then ended lane A's chain for the rest of the run, which the 6 h window made 4.5 h.
• Saved: the 184 modified LFS assets in the lane A checkout went to refs/salvage/M12.5.2-20261114-0245, without touching the tree. M12.5.2 was re-posted automatically.
• Decided: saluca-windmill PR #430, merged on green CI, makes a failed task continue the chain like a block. Only a requeue (out of time) ends a slot's chain.
• M12.22.fix9 (02:37): the keep key was never broken. The golden-path driver was stale; it was rewritten to follow game state and passes 5 of 5 on lane B. So M10.3.2 (alpha tag) became ready on lane A, whose chain was dead in that run.
• Restart: I stopped the run at 03:20 PT so a new one could start both lanes with #430. Lane B's in-flight M12.17.3.fix1, about 25 min in, was lost and requeued. That was a deliberate trade for starting the critical path (alpha tag, then M11.2, M15.2 and M16.2) at once.

14 Nov

03:55 PT. Lane A editor kept re-dirtying its checkout; editor restarted

• Found: after the restart, lane A still claimed nothing. Every lane A task was "left pending: could not go back to integration". The lane A editor still had Brown's, Jesse's and Mary-Grace's MetaHuman assets loaded from the unfinished M12.5.2 work. It kept them locked and re-saved, so the checkout was dirty again each time the runner rescued it (rescue branch 55da750 at 03:38).
• Decided: I saved the dirty files again (refs/salvage/M12.5.2-20261114-0355, 75000438), stopped the lane A editor (a jam editor restart, allowed), and forced the checkout back to integration, which is now clean. The scheduled keepalive restarts the editor. M12.5.2's work is in its WIP commit 9702ab0 plus the two salvage refs; nothing is lost.
• For later: M12.20 (assets that re-save every session) is the same class of problem. A task that leaves assets loaded in the editor should close them, or the runner should restart the editor, before the next claim.

14 Nov

04:30 PT. Lane A starved for the rest of a run; second restart

• Found: after the editor restart, lane A ran one 1st AD review and then went quiet with M10.3.2 ready. Cause: while the checkout was dirty, every lane A task the slot tried returned "left pending" (NOTHING). Each of those tasks stays in the run's taken set, so it is never tried again in that run. M10.3.2 was among them, so lane A had nothing left to take until a new run.
• My mistake: I ran build_runner.py run --dry-run to see what lane A would pick. The dry run still runs orphan recovery. It treated lane B's live task M12.17.3.fix2 as an orphan, failed it, and posted a copy.
• Decided: I stopped the run at 04:30 PT. The new run picks up M10.3.2 on lane A and the requeued copy of M12.17.3.fix2 on lane B. Lane B lost about 12 min.
• For later (code): (1) a "left pending" (NOTHING) start should release its reservation so a later look can take the task again; (2) --dry-run must not recover orphans while a run is live. Neither is changed tonight. I will not run --dry-run while a run is live.

14 Nov

04:40 PT. M10.3.2 blocked twice; triage told it not to tag; M10.3.3 posted

• Found: M10.3.2 (Haiku) stopped the lane A editor itself, after the TakeDirectorPawn.h change, and blocked because the editor was not back within its short wait. The keepalive rebuilt the editor (succeeded 04:34 PT) and restarted it. The recovery LLM triage requeued it with "do not push the alpha tag, that publish step needs a person". That is wrong: a git tag is not a human gate.
• Decided: I posted and kicked M10.3.3, titled "Build the alpha", so it routes Fable-first, not to Haiku. It is told the tag is its job, never to stop the editor, and to wait up to 30 min for MCP. A third copy of M10.3.2, with the bad note, was already running on lane A, so I let it finish. M10.3.3 runs after it and pushes the tag if it is still missing.
• For later: (1) the triage prompt should know the human-gate list exactly (itch public, D07, paid) and never invent one; (2) milestone-close tasks should not go to Haiku first.

14 Nov

05:18 PT - alpha tag on origin

• M10.3.3 (Fable) pushed alpha to origin at 6029f7b ("[M10] [M10.3.3] feature freeze, alpha: golden path 5 of 5 in PIE on lane A at 7e0213a ..., features.json 28 passing 9 cut none failing"). Verified with ls-remote, and the commit is an ancestor of origin/integration.
• M11.2 (alpha package, Win64 Shipping from the tag) is position 2 on lane A and runs when M10.3.3's slot frees.
• M12.17.3.AD hit round 3 of 3; recovery escalated to M12.17.3.fix3 on Fable with every round's defects. R23 relay switch-on still waits on M12.17.3 and M12.17.6.

14 Nov

05:25 PT - M10.3.3 completed; lane A order

• M10.3.3 completed at 05:22. Lane A then claimed M10.3.2.fix1 (the 1st AD's finding that HUD plates cover the cast on the C0 confession frame), followed by M10.3.3.AD, and then M11.2. I left that order alone: the fix is real quality work, and M11.2 packages from the frozen alpha tag anyway, so the fix cannot change the package.
• Lane B: M12.17.5.1.fix2 completed; M12.17.3.fix3 (HUD, escalated) is running on Fable.

14 Nov

06:10 PT - side worktree checkout timeouts (fix in progress)

• Side-slot 1st AD reviews crashed 3 times (05:32, 05:36, 06:07 PT) on git worktree add TimeoutExpired at 120 s, before any reviewer started; the jam repo's .git is now 5.5 GB. M10.3.3.AD passed on its retry; M12.17.5.1.AD crashed twice and raised a person card at 06:07.
• Resolved on recommendation (R24): saluca-windmill branch fix/side-worktree-timeout (755a8cf) gives side_worktree's fetch and checkout 900 s (GIT_SLOW_S); the reconcile path, which holds the log lock, keeps 120 s. Runner tests: 0 failures. Merge gate running; then PR, merge on green, fast-forward the host checkout, and re-kick M12.17.5.1.AD. The person card needs nothing from Cristian.
• 06:40 PT: PR #431 opened; local gate GREEN. Its CI test job was cancelled at the 15 min job cap inside test_slots_mutants.py (PRs #429 and #430 took 12.4 and 13.7 min, so the suite is near its ceiling), not by a failing test; rerun started. Follow-up for the morning: the saluca-windmill test job needs headroom (raise timeout-minutes or split the mutation suites).

14 Nov

06:50 PT - R23 relay switch-on: not yet

• The R23 watcher fired: M12.17.3 (client; three PIE proofs passed per its result) and M12.17.6 (Workers AI tier, Haiku) both completed.
• But M12.17.6 did NOT land: the landing step ran the repo checks on jam/M12.17.6 (fb2824b) and npm test exited 1, so it was neither merged nor deployed. The runner posted M12.17.6.lfix1 (pending on the mesh). Second time tonight a Haiku DONE was not clean.
• So R23's "at least one model tier is reliable" is not met yet; the relay stays off (RELAY_ENABLED no). Switch-on waits for M12.17.6.lfix1 to land and deploy, then I run the smoke test (4 of 5 turns in character within 2.5 s, no must_not_reveal leak, teen screen clean) and revert on failure.

14 Nov

07:05 PT - PR #431 merged; M12.17.5.1.AD reposted

• PR #431 green after one rerun (13m52s, against the 15 min cap); merged by the agent (a18aaf5), host checkout fast-forwarded. The live run still has the old code; the 900 s checkout applies from the next run. I did not restart the run, because 3 live tasks would be killed for an intermittent failure that requeues itself.
• M12.17.5.1.AD's person card resolved on recommendation: the task was closed failed on the mesh, so I reposted it with its full description and a note that the crash was the checkout, not the images.

14 Nov

07:20 PT - M12.17.3.AD cap card (resolved on recommendation)

• Card: the 1st AD rejected 9 relay proof frames 4 rounds running (first_ad_cap). The card went out at 06:57 PT, inside the no-wake window's tail.
• Read the review: most defects are Jesse's character (mitten hands, no cuffs or sleeve hem, hair knot), which the relay HUD fix rounds could never change, so the loop could not converge. Owners already queued: hands M12.5.2, cuffs and sleeves M12.6.2.fix1, hair M10.3.2.fix2 (the AD's own deferral).
• The relay-owned defect: in 4 tape frames the Q/A plate sits on the booth glass over the wall clock, with the TAPE QUESTIONS heading unplated. I looked at fail-02 (LFS-resolved) and confirm it.
• Posted M12.17.3.fix4, HUD only: move the tape plate and heading into the opaque desk band, retake the 12 frames, rerun the 3 PIE proofs and the golden path.
• Not a blocker for R23: R23 needs M12.17.3's PIE proofs (passed), a reliable tier (waiting on M12.17.6.lfix1) and the smoke test, not the 1st AD frames.

14 Nov

09:50-10:10 PT (Cristian back: "fix and let's keep going")

• Found: every landing held behind M12.5.2.merge, whose reconcile crashed twice at the 120 s git timeout (git merge, then git worktree add --detach). M11.2 crashed on git pull; M12.5.2's Fable attempt crashed on git checkout before any work. PR #431 had covered only side_worktree.
• Found: no .lfix<n> landing-fix task has ever run. task_id() matched no pattern, so the id was empty and it sorted last. M12.17.6.lfix1 (relay, R23) pending since 06:45 PT.
• Fix (alfred, agent): branch fix/megajam-git-slow-ops. git() defaults to 15 min for fetch/pull/push/checkout/merge/rebase/worktree/reset/stash/lfs and 120 s for everything else; reconcile checkout moved out of _LOG_LOCK; .lfix ids parsed and sorted right after a reconcile.
• Next: merge on green, fast-forward the host checkout, restart the runner, repost M12.5.2.merge, repost M12.5.2 for a real Fable attempt (the recorded one never started; escalate refuses it, so I repost by hand).

14 Nov

11:20-11:40 PT

• 432 merged (agent, on green CI): slow git ops 15 min, .lfix/.tfix ids, package tasklist retries, CI cap 25 min, test_landing time bomb. Host checkout at 98a9b7c, runner restarted.

• Fix tasks now run: M12.17.6.lfix1 completed on Fable but the landing still failed; runner posted lfix2. M11.2.2.tfix1 is waiting on package 20261114-112036-win64-shipping.
• M12.5.2.merge reran and BLOCKED for real: 28 Unreal assets changed on both sides. Decision (alfred): integration wins (it carries the later 1st AD wardrobe and pose fixes); jam/M12.5.2 b9d428d restores those 28 to the merge base; trial merge leaves only plan/cast/heads.md (text). Merge reposted as an id and kicked.
• M12.5.2 reposted for a real Fable attempt. Recovery entries appended so the board stops showing those cards as waiting on Cristian.
• 11:40 PT: M12.5.2.merge merged cleanly but failed UBT (C2065 'ClockBottomY' undeclared in TakeDirectorHUD.cpp): M12.17.3.fix4 removed the declaration, M12.19.fix2 on integration uses it. Fix (alfred): declaration restored [[maybe_unused]] on the fix4 branch (cdff181). Merge reposted as an id and kicked.

14 Nov

12:10-12:55 PT (Cristian: "let's drop npm, we don't need that" / "start going with the hugging face material sooner")

• R26 recorded: persona-relay (npm) dropped, relay stays off; M12.17.6.lfix2 cancelled on the mesh.
• R27 recorded and tools_declared updated (backup jam-plan.2026-11-14-pre-r26-hf.bak.json).
• HF probe: ZeroGPU community Spaces failed on their own workers (FLUX, Stable-Audio-Open-Zero, TRELLIS) and Hunyuan3D-2 has text-to-3D off; Inference Providers worked. No Provider serves image-to-3D, so props stay Fab/Megascans.
• tools/hf_gen.py landed on integration f9b5e0b (FLUX.1-schnell images, Stable Audio 3 audio via fal; daily cap image 150 / audio 40 in hf-ledger.jsonl; provenance sidecars). Tested: 4 s door wav, corkboard png (looked at: usable, banner text correct).
• Posted side tasks M12.14.2 (an id, HF ambience and Foley into SalucaJam/RawAudio/HF/; current audio is procedural) and M12.11.6 (76380903, 2D dressing images into plan/hf/img/), kicked.
• Cut list (drop M12.18.1, M12.16.1, dress 3 of 5 sets, cap cast fix-up) NOT applied: no answer from Cristian yet.

14 Nov

12:20-12:40 PT ("let's keep pushing and see where we can make time up for now before any cutting decision")

• R28 (alfred, reversible): runners.fable_first widened to every build verb in the queue; Haiku 3/14 completed since 16:00 PT 13 Nov, 90 min spent, 2 false DONEs; Fable 28/38 today. 35 of 43 queued tasks now Fable-first. Backup jam-plan.2026-11-14-pre-r28-fable-all.bak.json.
• M12.11.6 took lane A's editor (side slot busy, I had kicked it). Un-kicked M12.14.2 (kick.json emptied, backup in a working folder). PR #433: editor skips no-editor tasks while the side slot is busy (failing-first test). CI running.
• Duplicate M12.6.2.AD cancelled.
• M12.11.6 made 16 HF images in ~8 min; landing conflicted on shared text, INT.5 posted by the runner.
• Lane B idle: ed2 held 22 uncommitted lane A cast assets that its editor kept re-saving. Saved to rescue/M12.19.fix3.tfix1-laneB-leftovers-20261114T202846Z, lane B editor stopped with ubt.py stop-editor, files restored; keepalive restarts it.
• 13:10 PT: M12.17.3.AD cap card (9 m1273-relay frames rejected 4x) closed by alfred: frames retired with R26; the only defect is Jesse's hands/cuffs, owned by M12.5.2 and M12.15.fix6. Runner gap noted: the cap cards a person when every reject is outside the task's scope; it should defer those defects to their owner task instead.

14 Nov

13:02-13:40 PT: host crash and recovery (alfred, agent)

• Host bugcheck 0x50 (PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA), minidump on disk; unexpected shutdown 13:02, reboot 13:29 PT. Runner heartbeat last 13:27.
• Same failure as 12 Nov: spool/running/gpu_health.json and megajam_build.json NUL-filled, host runner dead ("heartbeat missing"). Moved to hostjobs/spool/quarantine-20261114-crash per the runbook.
• Both editors, Blender and capture keepalives restarted on their own (13:30-13:33).
• In-flight M12.5.2 (Fable, attempt 4) left 9 uncommitted files on jam/M12.5.2 over WIP 2882d88 (Jesse identity solve, 13:06-13:24). All intact (package magic C1832A9E, tools parse). Copied to a local folder before the runner restart.
• git fsck clean on the jam repo.

14 Nov

13:50-14:40 PT: look cards (Cristian: "yes" to picture cards; "we can create a 3d set", "we have the perks")

• FLUX.1-schnell look frames for 5 sets x A/B/C. Independent 1st AD: round 1 0/15 pass, round 2 1/30 (interrogation-room_C2). Recurrent defects FLUX cannot shake: pseudo-text signs, wrong-way or missing projector beam, computer monitors instead of a flatbed, upright photo frames. Material and verdicts: review-cards/2026-11-14-look/ (round1/, img/, first-ad.json). Nothing posted to Cristian; 45 of today's 150 image calls spent on this (71 total today).
• UI card material (real in-game frames, LFS-smudged from origin/integration) and post_cards.py ready; Meshy balance read 3,955 (unspent), budget card drafted (cap 600, 6 editing-bay props). Held pending his choice of path.
• 14:45 PT R29 (Cristian: "1 yse 2 approve 3 yes"): FLUX looks dropped; in-engine look presets M12.31 (an id, kicked, lane A after M11.2.2, leaves B active); Meshy props M12.32 (an id, kicked, side slot, cap 600, ledger meshy-ledger.jsonl); 3D editing bay M12.33 (an id, depends on M12.32). UI look card posted and delivered (megajam-dec-LOOK-ui, a phone notification message 2746). Pending on alfred: when M12.31's frames pass the 1st AD, post the four scene look cards from review-cards/2026-11-14-look/engine/ (post_cards.py, switch it to the engine frames). Old 17 megajam-rev cards to close once those are up.
• 14:55 PT R30 (his words in session): cast approved; visuals flat (set design, visual quality); round-2 FLUX frames in review-cards/2026-11-14-look/img/ are the target look (mood and quality, not details; 1st AD defects excluded) for M12.31, M12.10, M12.11.1-5, M12.13, M12.33. Menu retitle M12.34 (an id, lane B, kicked): "ASK: American Serial Killer" / "Director's Cut". UI card closed as answered in session.
• Found: 15 of his a phone notification presses refused silently ("item not open" 14, "item changed since" 1): stale cards keep live buttons. Agent building board decision buttons + refused-press replies in its own worktrees (board-buttons-2026-11-14); PRs only, no deploy without review.
• ~16:20 PT board buttons (PR #435): independent security review MERGE AFTER FIXES (blocker: local private network header forgery), fixed (unix-socket private network serve + device list). Residual: a program on a listed device can press as him. Cristian chose option 2: phone + workstation, residual accepted (recorded on the PR). Vault: MEGAJAM_BOARD_PRESS_HMAC (generated, never printed), MEGAJAM_BOARD_ORIGIN, MEGAJAM_BOARD_DEVICES (waynemanor + z-fold6). Merge after CI, then deploy per the PR comment.

14 Nov

~16:15-16:50 PT: R31 catch-up (alfred, agent, on Cristian's in-session approval)

• R31 recorded in jam-plan.json rulings_recorded (quote "1 approved 2 approved. 3 let's put this at the end of the list 'if we have time' 4 ABSOLUTELY 5 yes 6 yes go", part 7 "let's move refixes to the end as well, if we have time"). Backup jam-plan.2026-11-14-pre-r31-catchup.bak.json. The running build_runner (started 13:40 PT, deadline 19:22 PT) loaded the plan at its start, so R31 rides in briefs from the next run; the new task descriptions carry what they need.
• M12.31.fix1 superseded by M12.31.2 (an id, Look_B pushed to the R30 target, 4 frames *_B2.png, RUNNER OVERRIDE claude-fable). M12.10 overlaps; R31 says it extends M12.31.2's result. M12.10 still sorts before M12.31.2 and is not held.
• Moved to the end of lane A as 'if time' (cutoff 2026-11-15 03:00 PT, final line 'DONE: SKIPPED: no time (R31)'; DONE prefix so the runner reads it): M12.6.fix2 -> M14.87, M12.6.1.fix1 -> M14.88, M12.6.2.fix3 -> M14.89, M12.7.fix1 -> M14.90, M12.21 -> M14.91, M12.16.1 -> M14.92, M12.7.fix2 -> M14.93, M12.9.fix1 -> M14.94, M12.9.1.fix1 -> M14.95, M12.9.3 -> M14.96, M12.15.fix7 -> M14.97, M12.18.1 -> M14.98, M12.33 -> M14.99 (an id, fallback form only). 13 tasks needed M14.87 up, not M14.90 up. All gated behind milestone M13 (beta).
• Kept tasks reposted without the moved dependencies: M12.8.1 -> an id, M12.11.1 -> an id, M12.11.2 -> an id, M12.30 -> an id (the first script run retired the old ones without reposting, an idempotency bug in r31_tasks.py; repost_kept.py fixed it within minutes).
• Posted M13.1 (an id, tag beta, depends on the 22 kept lane A M12 tasks) and L2.1 (an id, Draft Dev log 2 and 3, side slot, drafts only).
• Old tasks were claimed then completed as the coordinator with status failed and result "not failed work: moved or superseded by R31". Script and ids: review-cards/2026-11-14-look/r31/ (r31_tasks.py, r31_tasks.json, repost_kept.py, repost_kept.json, pending-before.json).
• Web: nothing retries Wasm (last web request 13 Nov 02:39, failed 03:01; no web request pending). R31 part 5 tells every brief not to request one. The board's 'latest Wasm build failed' alert is code (jam.py risks loop over Wasm and Win64), no config turns it off.
• Not done: lane B move of M12.14 and Content/Audio (lane A voice tasks M12.12.2-6 import audio with no stated path, and the mix places sounds in lane A maps); the 17 megajam-rev cards (closing them needs state.json writes, or the 09:30 review round re-posts them to Cristian).
• Gaps: no queued task makes the [M14] commit marker that M15.2 waits on; M12.34.fix1 shows as lane A only because the running process holds the 13:40 plan (M12.34 joined lane B at 14:24).

14 Nov

~17:00 PT: R31 follow-up (alfred, agent, on R31)

• Posted M14.1: the polish pass. It makes the [M14] close commit that M15 waits on; nothing queued made it before. It depends on M13.1 (beta).
• Added M14 to runners.pull_forward, so the "if time" tasks M14.87 to M14.99 can use an idle editor before beta.
• Kicked M12.31.2 so the look B pass runs before M12.10. M12.10 lights from its result.
• Still open:
• The 17 stale megajam-rev cards need a jam.py close path that marks them reviewed in state.json. Without it, the 09:30 PT review round posts them again.
• The audio mix stays in lane A. The folder the voice imports go to is unknown.

14 Nov

~17:30 PT: PR #435 merged (alfred, agent)

The board-buttons PR is merged into trial/phase0 as 34ba0e5, on green CI. The authority was Cristian's "2". The deploy is held until after submission (R31 part 1). The board does not send presses yet: that needs the private network socket, private network serve and a receiver restart.

~16:45 PT: M12.5.2 split per head (alfred, agent)

Cristian, on the three fixes for Mesh to MetaHuman: "1 do it. 2 do it 3 do it". review-cards/2026-11-14-look/r31/m1252_split.py waits until the running all-in-one Fable attempt leaves its slot (its clock ends 17:31 PT). It then retires any requeue and posts M12.5.2.1 Jesse (which first merges the jam/M12.5.2 work in progress), then .2 Mary-Grace, .3 Brown and .4 Fisher. Each is pinned to Fable on every attempt (ESCALATION_NOTE lead) and lands on its own. A closer under M12.5.2 waits on the four, so M12.8.1 and M13.1 still wait for the cast. The ids go to m1252_split.json.

14 Nov

~17:25 PT: live checkout pulled (alfred, agent, on Cristian's "do it")

a local folder moved from 3493bb4 to 4ec5d92 (#435 and #436). Imports and jam status pass. The board buttons stay off until the private network deploy, which is held. Rollback: git checkout 3493bb4. A watch runs on the ticks and on the next runner run (~19:20 PT) until 19:45 PT.

14 Nov

~18:05 PT: R32, one generated asset per task (alfred, agent, on Cristian's in-session instruction)

Cristian: "moving forward.. let's try to not group asset generation, one by one to make things roll quickly". R32 is now in jam-plan.json rulings_recorded (backup: jam-plan.2026-11-14-pre-r32-one-asset.bak.json). review-cards/2026-11-14-look/r32/r32_split.py retired M12.11.6.fix1 and M12.32.fix1 as moved, not failed. It posted one task per asset: M12.11.6.11 to .22 for the 12 Hugging Face images (an id, an id, an id, an id, an id, an id, an id, an id, an id, an id, an id, an id) and M12.32.11 to .16 for the six Meshy props, takes of one prop kept together: flatbed an id, trim-bin an id, film-cans an id, splicer an id, rewind-bench an id, swivel-chair drop-takes an id. All 18 route to lane A's side slot: the title starts with Generate or Write, there is no editor note, and they have no deps. Meshy budget: 320 of 600 spent, so each of the 5 Meshy tasks is capped at 56 credits. The swivel-chair task spends none. M13.1 depended on M12.11.6.fix1, so it was reposted as an id on the 12 new ids (old an id retired). Ids are child ids, not fix1.1: the live task_id() reads M12.11.6.fix1.1 as an empty id, which never runs. Each child that lands images gets its own 1st AD review (round 1 of 3 for that id). Ids: r32/r32_split.json. Code: PR #437 (not merged, not pulled into the live checkout).

14 Nov

~18:00 PT: R33 faces (alfred, agent)

M12.5.2 completed at 17:31 PT: Identity faces for all four were conformed, rigged and built as BP_ID, and Fisher was built on his own body. I withdrew the per-head split tasks (M12.5.2.1-4 and the closer) before they started, because a swap would change the cast R30 approved. I showed Cristian the sheet (review-cards/2026-11-14-look/faces/FACES-COMPARE.png) and recommended keeping the current faces for the jam, with the new ones for after it. He answered "approved". Recorded as R33.

14 Nov

~18:30 PT: run restarted early (alfred, agent, on Cristian's "why wait? let's stop wasting time")

• The tested per-slot start budgets and the side slot running without lane A's editor are hot-applied as uncommitted changes to the live checkout. Branch fix/megajam-chain-min-2026-11-14 is the source; the PR follows, and after the merge the live checkout is reset to the merged commit.
• The 13:40 run was stopped at 02:30 UTC. It ran on pre-pull code, lane B sat idle with runnable tasks, and the 18:37 cutoff was about to idle every slot.
• M12.7.1 had committed its work at 18:25 (b03fdce). The new run requeued it as an orphan and continued it. Three untracked tools/m1271_.py were copied to megajam-2026-out/rescue/M12.7.1-restart-.
• New run: 18:30 to 00:12 PT, on all merged code (#435, #436) plus the hot patch.

14 Nov

~18:35 PT: R34 parallel split (agent, Claude Code, on Cristian's in-session "lets' do it... i want this done sooner rather than later.. the goal is fast, good and ready to improve")

• Applied on the mesh (as the jam coordinator, script review-cards/2026-11-14-look/r34/r34_parallel.py): M12.10 split per set (M12.10.1-5), dressing reposted on each set's lighting, M12.13 split per set (M12.13.1-5, each on its set's dressing), each voice scene split into a side-slot generate task M12.12.N.1 (verify and re-render one line at a time with the M12.12.1 ElevenLabs tool, write plan/audio/scenes/.json) and an editor task M12.12.N that only places and lip-syncs, M12.14 split into 19 side-slot sound tasks M12.14.11-29 (hf_gen.py, at most 2 calls each = 38 of the 40 sfx cap for 15 Nov UTC; 0 used so far) plus the place-and-balance editor task M12.14 and M12.14.40 (booth and screening placement). M12.9.fix2 narrowed (its screening item moved to M12.10.5). M12.30 and M13.1 reposted on the new ids; M13.1 no longer waits on M12.11.6.x or M12.32.x, and terminal deps (M12.5.2, M12.31.2) were dropped.
• NOT applied: the lane B config. jam.validate_lanes refuses runners.lanes.B.owns entries without a trailing "/" (the maps are single files) and lanes.B.tasks patterns deeper than two levels (M12.10.4). jam-plan.json was written with them at 18:33:11 PT, failed jam.load_plan, and was restored from jam-plan.2026-11-14-pre-r34-parallel.bak.json at 18:33:40 PT. R34 is recorded in rulings_recorded with that status. Until a runner change accepts the config, the tasks meant for lane B run in lane A. Ready config: r34/jam-plan.r34-invalid.json.
• New mesh ids: M12.10.1 an id, M12.10.2 an id, M12.10.3 an id, M12.10.4 an id, M12.10.5 an id, M12.11.1 an id, M12.11.2 an id, M12.11.4 28125765, M12.11.3 37262065, M12.11.5 an id, M12.13.1 an id, M12.13.2 an id, M12.13.3 an id, M12.13.4 an id, M12.13.5 an id, M12.9.fix2 an id, M12.12.2.1 an id, M12.12.2 an id, M12.12.3.1 an id, M12.12.3 an id, M12.12.4.1 an id, M12.12.4 an id, M12.12.5.1 an id, M12.12.5 an id, M12.12.6.1 an id, M12.12.6 an id, M12.14.11 an id, M12.14.12 an id, M12.14.13 an id, M12.14.14 an id, M12.14.15 an id, M12.14.16 an id, M12.14.17 an id, M12.14.18 an id, M12.14.19 an id, M12.14.20 an id, M12.14.21 an id, M12.14.22 an id, M12.14.23 an id, M12.14.24 an id, M12.14.25 an id, M12.14.26 an id, M12.14.27 an id, M12.14.28 an id, M12.14.29 an id, M12.14 an id, M12.14.40 an id, M12.30 an id, M13.1 an id.
• Retired (moved, not failed, R34): M12.10 an id, M12.11.1 an id, M12.11.2 an id, M12.11.3 an id, M12.11.4 an id, M12.11.5 an id, M12.12.2 an id, M12.12.3 an id, M12.12.4 an id, M12.12.5 an id, M12.12.6 an id, M12.13 an id, M12.14 an id, M12.9.fix2 an id, M12.30 an id, M13.1 an id.

14 Nov

~19:20 PT: lane B builds two sets (alfred, agent)

• 438 merged and pulled (845c975). runners.lanes from r34/jam-plan.r34-invalid.json applied; validate_lanes passes. Backup: jam-plan.2026-11-14-pre-r34-lanes-on.bak.json.

• The run restarted at 19:18 PT, because the old run held the old validator. M12.7.1 had committed its work at 19:10, and its untracked frames were copied to megajam-2026-out/rescue/M12.7.1-restart2-*.
• New run until 01:00 PT. Slots: editor M12.7.1, side M12.12.4.1, editor-b M12.10.4 (Director's Booth lighting).
• Lane B also finished M12.23.fix1 and M12.34.fix1 (the title) earlier this evening. M12.23.fix2 is blocked: those character fixes are lane A's, if time (R30/R31).

14 Nov

~20:50 PT: more side-slot work (alfred, agent, on Cristian's "give as much as we can realistically do on the side car to the side car")

• Seven generated-image fix tasks (M12.11.6.11/13/14/18/19/20/21.fix1) were titled "Fix" and queued for lane A's editor. They are reposted as "Generate ... again" so they run on the side slot (ids in review-cards/2026-11-14-look/r31/r35_side_retitle.json).

• 439 (lane B leftovers rescued and cleaned automatically) is merged.

• A PR for "the side slot keeps working during a package build, up to three side slots" is in CI. After it merges: runners.side_slots = 3, side_titles gain Replace and Recheck (M17.1.1 itch copy and M17.2.1 credits are doc work), then pull and a run restart at a save point.

14 Nov

~20:55 PT: Shipping renders the sets white (alfred, agent)

M12.8.1 found that Win64 Shipping 20261114-200708 (a74005c) renders every set as a white field. Control package 20261114-112036 is fine. The runner sent it to Cristian as a "person" card. This is a defect, not a decision, so I took it: M12.8.1.fix1 is posted and kicked to the front of lane A. It bisects the suspects (Look_B exposure/post in Shipping, the M12.10.4 booth layer streaming, the pawn/HUD C++) and proves the fix on a new package. M12.8.1 reruns after it.

14 Nov

~21:05 PT: lane B record conflicts (alfred, agent, on Cristian's "b conflict")

Lane B landings (M12.10.4, M12.10.5) conflicted only on Markdown records (plan/looks/README.md, plan/provenance.md, earlier a tools/ script added on both sides), and each one cost a merge task. Integration 1846472 adds .gitattributes merge=union for plan/.md, plan//.md and TOOLS.md. M12.10.5 is already merged (ce64860). The temporary guard cleaned lane B's leftovers at 20:55 (the ScreeningRoom map and two materials, rescued).

14 Nov

~21:55 PT: R35 cut (alfred, agent, on Cristian's "go")

• Lane A had about 22 editor-hours left against 11 hours to the rc.
• Lane B now owns the Editing Bay and runs M12.10.3, M12.11.4, M14.82-84 and M14.99.
• Cameras M12.13.1-5 become M14.80-84 (if time, cutoff 03:00).
• M12.20 becomes M14.85 (if time).
• M12.30 is dropped; M15.2.1 (side car) writes the playtest sheet from rc1.
• M13.1 is reposted for the side car without the cut tasks.
• side_titles gain Replace and Recheck.
• Ids: review-cards/2026-11-14-look/r35/r35_tasks.json. Backup: jam-plan.2026-11-14-pre-r35-cut.bak.json.
• Cristian: "let's keep nudging consistently to get this as close as possible to a final game".

14 Nov

~22:10 PT: restart for #439/#440 (alfred, agent)

• Restarted at 22:08 without waiting for a gap: M12.8.1.fix1 had probed for 16 min with no commits, while lane B had sat idle for 20 min and two side slots were unused. Its probe scripts stay in the checkout, with copies in megajam-2026-out/rescue/restart-side3-0608Z.
• New run until 03:50 PT. Slots: editor M12.7.1.fix2, side/side2/side3 on three set-pack images, editor-b M12.10.3 (Editing Bay lighting).
• M12.8.1.fix1 kicked again (the first kick was used up when it was claimed).

14 Nov

SuiPlay cross-check

(22:30 PT, agent, Claude Code.) The bad package 20261114-200708-win64-shipping renders the 3D sets as the same white field on AMD (SuiPlay, Radeon 780M, RADV, Proton 11.0 / vkd3d-proton DX12), with the same luma as on NVIDIA (Confession 242.2, 92 % at 245+). The control 20261114-112036 renders the lobby normally on the same device and route. So M12.8.1.fix1 can drop the NVIDIA driver and capture path as suspects: the fault travels with the package content or cook (Look_B push, map or ini changes), on both GPU vendors. Frames and table: a local folder

14 Nov

~22:40 PT: R36 sound cap (alfred, agent, on Cristian's "yes")

• tools/hf_gen.py: sfx cap 55 for UTC 2026-11-15 only (integration 9218cf0); 10 used so far today.
• Six sounds posted as side tasks M12.14.30-35: chair creak, wardrobe rustle, officers murmur, alarm pulse, footsteps 3 and 4, end-credits ambience. Ids in r35/r36_sounds.json.

14 Nov

~22:50 PT: submission readiness (alfred, agent, on Cristian's "i want a submission that's ready")

• jam-plan.json: M17 needs 1 zip (Win64). M15, D06 and D07 exit criteria and submit_steps are Windows only (R31 part 5 had dropped web, but the checklist still asked for it). Backup: jam-plan.2026-11-14-pre-r31-submit.bak.json.
• Posted M17.3 (side car, an id): assemble submission/ with the Win64 zip, video, screenshots, cover and submission-pack.md with hashes, page text, declarations, credits and upload steps. Names and Epic emails are left for Cristian. It depends on M15.2, M16.2, M17.1.1 and M17.2.1.

14 Nov

Post-jam documents (drafts)

• Lessons learned (agent, Claude Code, ~23:15 PT, draft, numbers as of 22:42 PT from post-jam/postjam_numbers.py): a local folder (+ .pdf)
• Plan for finishing the game (agent, Claude Code, ~23:15 PT, draft, estimates flagged): a local folder (+ .pdf)
• MegaJam learnings applied to NHE / SoulNode Works (agent, Claude Code, ~23:15 PT, draft): a local folder (+ .pdf)

14 Nov

~23:05 PT: R37 (alfred, agent, on Cristian's "go")

• Lane B also owns the Interrogation Room and runs M12.9.2, M12.10.2 (plus the glass haze item), M12.11.2, M12.12.3-4, M14.81 and M14.91.
• M12.9.fix2 is reposted lobby-only. M12.31.2.fix2 is retired.
• Performance and character fix rounds from M12.7.1.fix3 onward are if time.
• Content lock at 06:00 PT: M13.1 is kicked then. Ids in r35/r37_tasks.json.

14 Nov

~23:00 PT: R38, no waste (alfred, agent)

The Meshy prop regenerations M12.32.11-16 are retired. pull_forward gains M17, so the side car drafts the itch copy and credits now. No more restarts unless a slot is blocked.

14 Nov

~23:07 PT: M12.7.1.fix2 stopped (alfred, agent, on Cristian's "no time wasted")

The performance fix round ran from 22:08; its last commit was 22:45 (jam/M12.7.1.fix2, 430446c: hairlines, cuffs). Only its claude process was stopped, not the run. The repost is retired (R37 if time). The uncommitted AS_Brown_Impatient is copied to rescue. The editor took M12.8.1.fix1 (Shipping white render) at once.

14 Nov

~23:15 PT: Fable usage limit (alfred, agent)

• At 23:06 PT every Fable task failed: "You've hit your Fable limit, resets Nov 18, 6am".
• runners.escalation now runs claude-opus-5-5 (probe answered READY). Backup: jam-plan.2026-11-14-pre-fable-limit.bak.json.
• The run restarted at 23:10 to load it.
• M12.11.4 (and its triage tfix) reposted pinned to the escalation rung.
• M12.8.1.fix1 started on Haiku. I stopped it; it now runs on the claude-code runner, whose default model is Opus.
• Lane B's editor restarted at 23:07; lane B runs M12.9.2 on Opus.
• Switch escalation back to Fable after 18 Nov 06:00.

14 Nov

23:16 PT: Fable back on the escalation rung (alfred, agent)

Cristian: "i just reset fable". Probed claude-fable-5-2 (answered OK), reverted the rung from claude-opus-esc to claude-fable, plan validates. The run restarts in the gap after lane A's M12.8.1.fix1 ends, so the four in-flight Opus tasks are not thrown away.

14 Nov

23:16 PT: Opus stays on the escalation rung (alfred, agent)

Cristian: "we can stick with opus and only move to fable if needed". Stopped the restart watcher before it fired (no restart happened), put the rung back to claude-opus-esc / claude-opus-5-5, plan validates. The running run already uses Opus, so nothing else changes. Fable is held in reserve for a task that Opus cannot land.

14 Nov

23:19 PT: M12.14.31/32 lock crash cleared (alfred, agent)

Both side slots crashed at 23:11 on stale index.lock files in their worktrees, left when I killed the run at 23:10; recovery sent them to Cristian. Removed the two locks (no git process held them), copied the half-made sound files to a local folder, reposted both (an id, an id). Not his act. M12.8.1 on his list is superseded by M12.8.1.fix1 (running). The three escalated 1st AD fix3 tasks (M12.11.6.13/14/18) are queued for the runner, not for him. Lesson for the restart script: clear worktree index.lock files after the kill.

14 Nov

23:28 PT: nudge (alfred, agent)

All five slots busy (editor M12.8.1.fix1 on Opus, active: commit 23:27; editor-b M12.10.2; side M17.1.1, side2 M12.14.32, side3 M12.9.2.AD). M12.9.2 (black corner) completed. M12.14.31 crashed again at 23:20: its worktree held an unfinished merge (wardrobe_rustle.wav both sides), so the runner could not branch its leftovers. Saved HEAD as rescue/M12.14.31-conflict-0730Z, aborted the merge, reposted. No PRs open from tonight except #434 (older, test check red, lane B is moving without it; left for after submission). No new conflicts on records or scripts.

14 Nov

23:39 PT: run restarted between tasks to load the Fable rung (alfred, agent)

The restart waited for lane A editor task to end. Untracked files are copied to a local folder

14 Nov

23:48 PT: nudge (alfred, agent, quiet hours, R1)

M12.8.1.fix1 had requeued at 07:34Z to wait for package 233320 (done 07:41Z), then was reclaimed by Haiku at 07:44Z (its first-attempt Opus pin was spent), which requested a second package (234737). Stopped the Haiku process so the chain falls to claude-code (Opus), as at 23:10. Lane B: M12.9.2 and M12.10.2 (interrogation lighting) done; M12.9.2.fix1 running. 1st AD rejected 2 of M12.10.2's frames (fix posted by the runner). Side car: M17.1.1 itch page copy done, M17.2.1 running, M12.14.32 murmur done, M12.14.31 rustle running. No conflicts, no new person cards.

14 Nov

23:55 PT: temporary lane B leftover guard ended (4 h, as planned); PR #439 (rescue_lane_b in the runner) covers it now.

15 Nov

00:09 PT: nudge (alfred, agent, quiet hours, R1)

Lane B and all three side slots sat idle about 10 to 18 min: every lane B task showed "lands behind reconcile M12.14.31.merge", which was queued in lane A behind M12.8.1.fix1. Merged jam/M12.14.31 into integration by hand in a temp worktree (clean merge, f81fd18), completed an id. M12.8.1.fix1 progress: package 233320 renders the lobby take 1 lit and graded (commit 00:05). M13.1 hold on an id reads "cannot tell" (it is M12.9.2, completed); the 06:00 kick exempts it from holds.

15 Nov

00:13 PT: correction (alfred, agent): completing M12.14.31.merge by hand did not release reconcile.json (runner-written; it holds 7 queued branches: M12.14.23, M12.14.24, M12.10.3.fix2, M12.14.31, M17.2.1, M12.9.2.AD x2). Reposted the reconcile task (an id, same title and description) and kicked it so the runner runs it and lands all of them; reconcile.json untouched. Lesson: reconcile tasks are the runner's; free a hold by getting the runner to run it, never by completing the mesh task.

15 Nov

00:29 PT: M12.8.1.fix1 Shipping white field FIXED, landing by hand (alfred, agent, R1)

Cause (agent's record plan/playtests/m1281fix1-white-field.md): the streamed booth layer's old Manual-exposure post process volume; fix = C++ guard in TakeDirectorPawn.cpp (streamed layers' volumes off on load) plus lane B's booth map. Shipping package 233320 renders take 1 graded (luma 30.9, 0% white). The runner refused the landing (lane A touched InterrogationRoom.umap) but that was an earlier WIP commit reverted within the branch; net diff has no lane B file. Recovery sent it to Cristian; taken instead: merged jam/M12.8.1.fix1-laneA-refused-20261115-001954 onto origin/integration in a temp worktree (57ff420), UBT build under name alfred-land running, push only if green. Meanwhile the side car runs the reconcile M12.14.31.merge (7 queued landings) and the editor took M12.9.fix2.

15 Nov

00:31 PT: M12.8.1.fix1 landed (alfred, agent): UBT build of 57ff420 green (111 s, alfred-land), pushed to origin integration as 57ff420. The person card for M12.8.1.fix1 is answered by this; nothing for Cristian.

15 Nov

00:48 PT: nudge (alfred, agent)

Reconcile M12.14.31.merge landed (08:32Z): lane B unblocked, now M12.10.2.fix1; lane A on M12.10.1 (lobby lighting) after M12.9.fix2 (lobby set fixes) done. Side car idle by design: no side-eligible work left (sounds done, M13.1 waits for the 06:00 kick, the rest are "if time" editor tasks). Lane A to 06:00: M12.10.1, M12.11.1, three 1st AD fix3s, M12.12.2, M12.14, M12.23.fix2: about 3 h of work, on track for M13.1 at 06:00 and rc at 09:00. No cut needed.

15 Nov

01:07 PT: nudge: all three slots busy (editor INT.7 reconcile by the runner, editor-b M12.11.2 interrogation dressing, side M12.10.3.AD). Done since 00:47: M12.10.1 lobby lighting (1st AD 2 pass), M12.11.1 lobby dressing, M12.10.3.fix1 editing bay light. No new conflicts or person cards. On track.

15 Nov

01:29 PT: R39 (alfred, agent, R1): Interrogation Room back to lane A

Lane A's required queue emptied (it took M14.80 "if time" on Haiku) while lane B holds 11 tasks (~4 h); M12.23.fix2 (lane A) was refused for InterrogationRoom.umap and M12.10.2.fix3 (lane B) held for Jesse's cast assets. Moved map, set and tasks M12.9.2, M12.10.2, M12.11.2, M12.12.3, M12.12.4, M12.23, M14.81 (and children) to lane A; validated; recorded as R39 in rulings_recorded; backup jam-plan.2026-11-15-pre-r39-interrogation-to-A.bak.json. Restart waits for a gap (restart_r39.sh). Done since 01:07: INT.8, M12.11.2 interrogation dressing, M12.11.1.AD (2 rejected, fix posted), M12.23 out of rounds (fix4 escalated).

15 Nov

01:31 PT: run restarted for R39 (alfred, agent)

Interrogation Room back in lane A. Restart taken at a gap (no reconcile, lane A on if-time work, lane B fresh). Untracked files copied to a local folder; stale index.lock files cleared after the kill.

15 Nov

01:36 PT: R39 restart done (new run 09:30Z to 15:12Z). Lane queues as intended: A = M12.10.2.fix2.tfix1, M12.11.2.fix1, M12.12.3, M12.12.4, M12.23.fix3, M12.23.fix4; B = M12.11.4, M12.11.5, M12.12.5, M12.12.6, M12.14.40. Cost: M12.10.3.fix3 (under 6 min in) and M14.80 (if time) requeued; lane A editor restarting. 1st AD rejected 4 of M12.11.2 (interrogation dressing) frames; M12.11.2.fix1 posted to lane A.

15 Nov

01:49 PT: run restarted for R39 (alfred, agent)

Interrogation Room back in lane A. Restart taken at a gap (no reconcile, lane A on if-time work, lane B fresh). Untracked files copied to a local folder; stale index.lock files cleared after the kill.

15 Nov

01:50 PT: rung name fix (alfred, agent, R1; my error)

Six person cards since 01:15. Four (M12.11.6.13/14/18.fix3, M12.10.2.fix4) crashed "reviewer claude-fable is not an image-capable runner": my 23:10 rename of the escalation rung to claude-opus-esc broke first_ad.REVIEWERS / recovery.RUNNERS_OK / RUNNER_OVERRIDE pins, which hard-code the name claude-fable (queued M12.12.3-6 and M12.14.40 are pinned to it too). Rung name restored to claude-fable, model stays claude-opus-5-5 (backup jam-plan.2026-11-15-pre-rungname.bak.json); run restarted at 01:48 (lane A editor was still down, lane B 2 min into M12.11.4). Reposted the four fixes and M12.11.1.AD (its review json never reached integration). M12.23.fix2 left retired: superseded by M12.23.fix3 (lane A now owns the map under R39). Lane A editor up: M12.10.2.fix2.tfix1 running; editor-b M12.11.4; side M12.10.3.AD. Lesson: never rename a runner; change its model.

15 Nov

02:08 PT: M12.12.2 (lobby lip-sync) and M12.14 (sound mix) had also crashed on the rung name at 01:15 and were left failed; reposted and kicked first in lane A (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

02:08 PT: M12.12.2 (lobby lip-sync) and M12.14 (sound mix) had also crashed on the rung name at 01:15 and were left failed; reposted and kicked first in lane A (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

02:28 PT: nudge (alfred, agent, R1)

All slots busy (editor M12.12.2 lobby lip-sync, editor-b M12.11.4.fix1, side M12.11.5.AD). Done since 02:07: M12.11.4 Editing Bay dressing, M12.11.5 Screening Room dressing, M12.10.3.fix3, M12.11.1.fix1. Person card M12.10.2.AD (InterrogationRoom_lit_after rejected 4 rounds) taken: cuffs and band now pass, last defect is Jesse's eye a white crescent in a black socket under the top light; posted M12.10.2.fix5 (an id, escalation note, lane A) and kicked it. Not for Cristian.

15 Nov

02:48 PT: nudge (alfred, agent, R1/R38)

Lane A holds 11 required tasks vs lane B 3, lock 06:00. Moved the three generated-image fix3s (M12.11.6.13/14/18: booth storyboard table, editing bay contact sheet, interrogation case folder; plan/hf/img PNG regenerations only) to the idle side car: reposted with "Replace ..." titles, same description (an id, an id, an id), editor copies retired as not failed work. Running: editor M12.10.2.fix5 (Jesse eye), editor-b M12.11.4.fix1. M12.12.2 blocked once (leftovers saved) and back in the queue with M12.12.2.fix1. Lane A order now: M12.14, M12.11.2.fix1, M12.12.2, M12.12.2.fix1, M12.12.3, M12.12.4, M12.23.fix3, M12.23.fix4 (about 3 h: tight for 06:00; R37 locks what has landed).

15 Nov

03:08 PT: lock prep (alfred, agent, R1)

Retired lane A's 14 "if time" tasks (M14.80, .81, .85, .87-.98): lane A is full to the 06:00 lock. Lane B keeps M14.82-84, M14.91, M14.99 to fill its time after its 4 required tasks. Person card M12.11.6.14.AD (contact sheet, 4th rejection) taken: one frame shows the wrong interrogation door; posted M12.11.6.14.fix4 for the side car to swap that cell with a door-free approved still. M12.10.2.AD card is stale: its last round deferred the frame after the eye fix. Slots: editor M12.14 sound mix, editor-b M12.11.5.fix1, side car on the two image fix3s.

15 Nov

03:30 PT: nudge: M12.14 sound mix done. Lane B gap was between tasks (now M12.11.4.fix2). M12.11.6.13.AD card (storyboard table, 4th rejection: paint-out seams) taken: posted M12.11.6.13.fix4 for the side car, one clean regeneration, no patching. Running: editor M12.11.2.fix1, editor-b M12.11.4.fix2, side2 M12.11.5.AD.

15 Nov

03:48 PT: nudge: all slots busy (editor M12.11.2.fix1 22 min in, committing; editor-b M12.12.5 booth lip-sync; side M12.11.6.13.fix4 on Haiku after the Opus attempt hit my 3-seed cap; side2 M12.11.4.AD). Contact sheet fix4 and case folder fix3 done. No more reposts for the storyboard table: if this attempt fails the current image ships and goes on the beta known-issues list. Lane A left: M12.12.2 (+fix1), M12.12.3, M12.12.4, M12.23.fix3, M12.23.fix4, about 2 h: on the edge of 06:00, R37 locks what has landed.

15 Nov

04:07 PT: nudge: slots busy (editor M12.12.2 lobby lip-sync, editor-b M12.12.5 booth lip-sync, side3 M12.11.2.AD). M12.11.6.13.fix4 (storyboard table) failed again on Haiku and went to Cristian: closed by the 03:48 decision, the current image ships; to be listed in plan/beta.md known issues by M13.1 (alfred, agent, R1). Lane A left after M12.12.2: fix1, M12.12.3, M12.12.4, M12.23.fix3, M12.23.fix4.

15 Nov

04:28 PT: nudge: M12.12.2 lobby lip-sync and M12.12.5 booth lip-sync done; editor running reconcile M12.12.5.merge, editor-b M12.14.40 sound placement. Lane A grew (M12.11.2.fix2) to about 2 h; kicked M12.12.3 and M12.12.4 (interrogation lip-sync, core) ahead of the 1st AD fix rounds so the content that matters lands before the 06:00 lock (alfred, agent, R1).

15 Nov

04:48 PT: nudge: editor M12.12.3 (interrogation B1-B2 lip-sync), editor-b M12.14.40 (booth and screening sounds). Kicked M12.12.6 (premiere and endings lip-sync, core) ahead of lane B's fix rounds (alfred, agent, R1).

15 Nov

05:07 PT: nudge: M12.12.3 (interrogation B1-B2) and M12.14.40 (booth/screening sounds) done; editor M12.12.4 (B3-B5), editor-b M12.12.5.fix1 (1st AD fixes sort ahead of the kick), M12.12.6 next in lane B. Lock kick at 06:00 as planned.

15 Nov

05:28 PT: nudge: M12.12.4 (interrogation B3-B5) done; all interrogation and lobby and booth lip-sync landed or landing. Running: editor M12.12.3.fix1, editor-b M12.14.40.fix1, side M12.11.2.AD. M12.12.6 (premiere/endings lip-sync) still queued behind lane B fix rounds; under R37 it ships if it lands before the rc cut. Lock kick cron an id armed for 06:00.

15 Nov

05:47 PT: nudge: editor M12.12.3.fix2; side3 runs reconcile M12.14.40.fix1.merge, lane B waits behind it with M12.12.6 next; side M12.11.2.AD. Lane A after this: M12.23.fix3, M12.23.fix4, then M13.1 at 06:00.

15 Nov

06:00 PT: content lock (R37, alfred, agent)

Kicked M13.1 (content lock record + beta tag; side car, holds exempt) and M14.1 (polish, then the [M14] marker) for lane A after M12.23.fix4. M15.2 (rc1) follows on milestone M13. Landed for beta: Shipping white-field fix, all four rooms lit and dressed, lobby/interrogation/booth lip-sync, sound mix and booth/screening sounds, itch page copy, credits recheck. Not landed at lock: M12.12.6 (premiere and endings lip-sync, lane B next), lane B fix rounds, M12.23.fix3/fix4 character fixes, storyboard table image (known issue); these keep going in polish and ship only if they land before the rc cut.

15 Nov

06:02 PT: M13.1 content lock running on side2 (claimed 14:01Z). Lane B took M14.91 (if time, background cast) after its editor restarted for a rescue of pre-R39 leftovers (HospitalLobby.umap, InterrogationRoom.umap and 17 more, copied to rescue); M12.12.6 premiere lip-sync stays kicked and runs next (~06:50). Did not stop M14.91: both editor processes started 06:01 and the prompts are on stdin, so the lane B one cannot be told apart from lane A's M12.23.fix4 safely. M14.1 kicked for lane A.

15 Nov

06:09 PT: nudge: reconcile M12.14.40.fix1.merge crashed at 900 s on git worktree add (three full LFS checkouts at once: M12.11.2.AD, M13.1, the reconcile); its retry and M13.1's checkout are copying at ~60 MB/s and should finish in time. Lane B idles behind that reconcile (M12.12.6 next). Reposted M12.11.2.AD (same timeout; card to Cristian taken). Lane A: M12.23.fix4, then M14.1 (kicked).

15 Nov

06:10 PT: reconcile M12.14.40.fix1.merge done, pushed 6709a6c: landed M12.12.4 (interrogation B3-B5 lip-sync), M12.14.40.fix1, M12.12.3.fix2, M12.23.fix3. Lane B free for M12.12.6.

15 Nov

06:28 PT: nudge: M13.1 done on the side car: tag beta at 290bca4 (05:37 content head), plan/beta.md lists what landed (M12.12.5 booth line JO6 pause over limit noted). Lane B ran M14.91 and M14.99 (if time: background cast and the 3D editing bay, both completed) while M12.12.6 was kicked: it was not runnable behind its M12.7.1 dependency (failed id; the cast landed by later tasks). Reposted M12.12.6 with no dependencies, old retired as not failed work, kicked. Lane A: M12.23.fix4 then M14.1 polish; M15.2 rc1 is no longer held.

15 Nov

06:31 PT: lane B claimed M12.12.6 (premiere and endings lip-sync); lane A finished M12.23.fix4 and claimed M14.1 polish; side M12.23.AD.

15 Nov

06:49 PT: M14.1 polish blocked (Haiku): its git checkout of jam/M14.1 was stopped mid-way, leaving a local folder and 484 tracked files deleted on disk (no data lost; all in HEAD 0339fa9). Removed the stale lock (no git process), copied 2 untracked files to rescue/M14.1-halfcheckout-1448Z, restored the 484 from HEAD, planned stop of the lane A editor (it ran while the files were gone) so the keepalive restarts it clean (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

06:49 PT: reposted M14.1 pinned to the escalation rung (Opus) with a do-not-switch-branches note, runner triage repost retired, kicked. Person card M12.23.AD (3 cast frames rejected 4 times) closed under R37 (2): cast fix rounds are if time; listed for the beta known issues. Lane B on M12.12.6. Run ends 07:30 PT; Windmill starts the next.

15 Nov

07:08 PT: rc1 pulled forward (alfred, agent, toward the early entry)

M14.1 polish completed (Opus) and M12.12.6 premiere/endings lip-sync completed (landing conflicted: M12.12.6.merge posted, sorts first). Run ended at its budget (84 tasks, 07:06). M15.2 rc1 was held on an id ("cannot tell", a stale id): kicked so it runs after the merge reconcile instead of waiting for 09:00, per Cristian's "the goal is still an early entry". Remaining 1st AD fix rounds keep running; rc2 if they land something worth shipping.

15 Nov

07:09 PT: M12.12.6.merge landed (bb6ae64): premiere and endings lip-sync on integration. M15.2 rc1 claimed by lane A at 15:08Z in the new run.

15 Nov

07:29 PT: M15.2 rc1: Haiku tagged rc1 locally (bb6ae64, contains 57ff420 and the M12.12.6 merge) and was blocked at the package request (package.py outside its allowlist). Pushed tag rc1 to origin; reposted M15.2 from its original description (r31/pending-before.json) pinned to the escalation rung with a do-not-move-the-tag note; kicked. Not requesting the package by hand: package.py cooks lane A's checkout as it stands, and lane A is mid M12.12.4.fix3.

15 Nov

07:48 PT: M15.2 rc1 now on the escalation rung (Opus): first package 20261115-073713 failed in 1.6 min ("the editor would not close": package.py closes every editor and the keepalive restarted one); the agent retried, the cook is running (AutomationTool since 07:46, checkout detached at rc1 bb6ae64). Lane B waits while the package holds the editors (expected).

15 Nov

07:57 PT: rc1 cook blocker found (alfred, agent)

Package 20261115-074548 (rc1 bb6ae64, Opus retry) failed: RunUAT exit 25, 172 x "Content is missing from cook": the 18 VO face animations in /Game/Audio/VO/FaceAnim (M12.12.2-6, MetaHuman Animator audio solve) reference the editor-only /MetaHuman/IdentityTemplate/Face_Archetype_Skeleton; the cast face meshes use the cookable /MetaHumanCharacter/Face/Face_Archetype_Skeleton. Posted M15.2.2 (an id, escalation note, kicked): reassign the 18 sequences to the character skeleton, prove no /Game referencer of the template skeleton, PIE check, commit. Stopped the M15.2 agent so it does not keep cooking a known failure; M15.2 reposts to wait on M15.2.2, then rc1 is re-tagged on the fix commit (rc1 was never built).

15 Nov

07:58 PT: reposted M15.2 depending on M15.2.2, not kicked (a kick would skip the hold), with a note to tag rc1 on the fix commit and to fix the first cook error rather than re-run. M15.2.2 already claimed.

15 Nov

08:09 PT: nudge: M15.2.2 committed the skeleton fix (08:06, plus an editor-only saluca.Anim.ReplaceSkeleton console command: C++, so its landing goes through the build gate). Lane B editor (started 07:53 after the package closed it) reads ready now (editor up, MCP answering); M12.11.5.fix2 next. M15.2 rc1 waits on M15.2.2.

15 Nov

08:22 PT: run restarted for R39 (alfred, agent)

Interrogation Room back in lane A. Restart taken at a gap (no reconcile, lane A on if-time work, lane B fresh). Untracked files copied to a local folder; stale index.lock files cleared after the kill.

15 Nov

08:22 PT: M15.2.2 landed (0fa3367: 18 VO face anims on /MetaHumanCharacter/Face/Face_Archetype_Skeleton). Kicked M15.2 (rc1) ahead of the fix rounds. Lane B had idled 25 min with M12.11.5.fix2 runnable and both lanes ready; build_runner run --dry-run picked it for editor-b, so the live run's lane B thread was gone. MY ERROR: that dry run is not side-effect free: it requeued the running M12.12.4.fix5 as an orphan; retired the duplicate. Restarted the run at 08:20 (before rc1 packages; cost: M12.12.4.fix5, a fix round, requeued).

15 Nov

08:25 PT: new run: editor M15.2 (rc1, Opus), editor-b M12.11.5.fix2.

15 Nov

08:29 PT: second rc1 cook blocker (alfred, agent)

M15.2 (Opus) blocked without packaging: lane B's 43 booth face animations (/Game/Sets/DirectorsBooth/VO/FaceAnim) are on the same editor-only skeleton. Scanned integration: no other cooked asset references /MetaHuman/IdentityTemplate/ (only the editor-only Performances folders and the M2MH face sources). Posted M12.12.5.2 (an id, lane B, escalation note, kicked) to reassign them with saluca.Anim.ReplaceSkeleton; reposted M15.2 depending on it, not kicked. Package person card answered by this.

15 Nov

08:48 PT: stopped lane B's M12.11.5.fix2 (a Screening Room 1st AD round, 22 min in; the only runner agent, a process ) so the kicked M12.12.5.2 (rc1 cook blocker) runs now; the runner keeps its WIP (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

09:01 PT: R37 cast-fix-round guard ended at 09:00 PT as planned.

15 Nov

09:03 PT: M12.12.5.2 done (43 booth face anims on the character skeleton, 5f2bd8c, cfb7ffe). M15.2 rc1 unblocked and kicked with a trigger.

15 Nov

09:10 PT: nudge. editor runs M15.2 rc1 (Opus), editor-b runs M12.11.5.fix2; side idle with nothing runnable. M15.2.1 and M17.3 held on stale id an id: kick them once M15.2 completes (not before, they need the rc1 package). No PRs from tonight open; #435 still held to after submission. 30-minute status cron an id set at :13/:43 at his request (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

09:28 PT: rc1 tagged (cfb7ffe) and Win64 Shipping package 20261115-090914 BUILT at 09:18 (status ok, commit 3cd1929, 1872 MB). M15.2 an id had ended BLOCKED waiting for it; posted the finish (boot, lit on 5 maps, B1, record, close [M15]) as an id pinned to Opus and kicked (r35/post_m152_finish.py). Repointed M15.2.1 and M17.3 from stale an id to an id. M12.11.5.fix2 (an id, Haiku) blocked: no passing capture of the Screening Room frame; left as is, the committed frame stands (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

09:28 PT: nudge. M15.2 finish claimed on the editor slot (Opus); editor-b and side idle with nothing runnable (rest waits on M15.2). No new PRs (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

09:48 PT: block: rc1 package 090914 boots, renders lit and plays B1, but the Win64 zip is 1430 MiB, over the 1 GB limit (M15.2 an id BLOCKED, record 8304a8e on jam/M15.2). Runner fix M17.3.tfix1 capped 12 cast 8K body textures to 4K (9e5d8d1); package 20261115-094407 building to measure. Watching it. Windows Security credential dialog (PickerHost.exe) reported holding the foreground: his to dismiss (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

09:58 PT: size-fix package 094407 (53a3745, body textures capped 8K->4K) staged 1609 MiB (was 1872), projected still over 1 GB zipped; measuring the no-pdb zip. Posted M15.2.fix3 (an id, Opus, kicked; r35/post_m152_size.py): cap all cast textures at 2048 for the cook, drop uncooked duplicate VT/non-VT copies, repackage, target <=950 MiB zip, look at the cast, merge, move rc1, close [M15]. First post as M15.2.size retired: runner cannot parse that id. Queue: M15.2.fix1 (subtitles print stage directions, lane A), M15.2.fix2 (booth notice board, lane B; lane B editor not up). M15.2.1 and M17.3 to be re-posted against fix3 once it lands (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

10:00 PT: measured 094407 no-pdb zip: 1167.0 MiB, still over 1 GB (was 1430.1). M15.2.fix3 stands (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

09:55 PT: (clock fix: the 09:58 and 10:00 entries above were at 09:50-09:52.) M15.2.fix3 claimed on the editor slot (Opus). M15.2.1 DONE (playtest 3 sheet, b296a9c, on 090914). Repointed M16.2 from stale an id to fix3. Re-posted M17.3 depending on fix3 + M16.2, building on draft 0cf91b7 (r35/repoint_after_fix3.py, repost_m173.py) (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

10:12 PT: fix3 package 20261115-095805 (0387c3c; cast textures capped 2048, eyes/teeth/LOD3 1024) staged 1397 MiB; no-pdb zip 1,001,489,516 bytes (955.1 MiB): under 1 GiB but 1.5 MB over 1 GB decimal. fix3 had ended BLOCKED waiting for the package; reposted its recovery as an id (Opus, kicked) with the measurement and step 4 now (cap set textures >2048), target <=950 MiB (r35/fix3_recovery_note.py). Stopped the stale Haiku M17.3.tfix1 (an id, the process min in, superseded by fix3; runner keeps its WIP); retire got 403 (claimed by the runner), will retire its recovery if one appears. M16.2 and M17.3 dependencies resolve by task id, so they wait on fix3 (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

10:20 PT: M17.3.tfix1 was not stopped in effect: it (or its recovery) landed lossless Oodle Leviathan + deflate 9 (an id, merged an id) and requested package 20261115-101444 (cooking since 10:16). Reposted fix3 as the next id with: measure 101444 first, skip the set texture cap if <=950 MiB, then cast look, B1, move rc1, close [M15] (r35/fix3_leviathan_note.py); kicked (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

10:21 PT: package 20261115-101444 (lossless Oodle Leviathan, an id) ok, staged 1337.5 MiB; no-pdb deflate-9 zip 941,358,247 bytes (897.7 MiB, 941 MB): UNDER 1 GB with ~59 MB margin, no set texture cut needed. fix3 will verify, check the cast and B1, move rc1 and close [M15] (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

10:24 PT: M15.2.fix3 claimed on the editor (Opus). Retired M17.3.tfix1's recovery an id: its goal is met (101444 zip 941 MB) (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

10:29 PT: nudge. editor runs M15.2.fix3 (Opus). Lane B editor restarted 10:19 after the package, loading; M15.2.fix2 will take editor-b once it answers. No new PRs (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

10:42 PT: Cristian: "gold image approved". Recorded R40 in jam-plan.json (backup jam-plan.2026-11-15-pre-r40-gold.bak.json): gold = rc1, package 20261115-101444, zip 20261115-101444-win64-shipping-nopdb.zip 941,358,247 bytes sha256 (hash)e05e15a; frozen. M15.2.fix3 closed [M15]. M15.2.fix1 (subtitles) merged after rc1: post-gold, not in the submission. Retired M15.2.fix2 (booth polish) as post-gold. M16.2 video and M17.3 pack now runnable from the gold package (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

10:50 PT: M16.2 video claimed on the editor (Haiku). Retired the 1st AD round-2 fixes M15.2.fix3 (an id, 4 set/art files) and M15.2.fix4 (an id, characters) as post-gold under R40; they also blocked M17.3 by id. M17.3 now waits only on M16.2 (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

10:53 PT: Cristian: game instance stuck on the menu. It was an orphan: SalucaJam.exe the process from the gold package, -windowed 1280x720, launched 10:42 by an earlier check task whose parent had exited (M16.2 started 10:48 and records at 1920x1080). Killed it so it cannot take focus or keys from the video capture (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

10:55 PT: M16.2 first attempt BLOCKED: 'could not record game audio without changing Windows audio routing'. The recovery is recording now (game 1920x1080 the process at 10:51, gdigrab 95 s -an to capture/m162/raw_video.mp4). Game audio IS available without routing changes: the continuous capture writes WASAPI loopback to capture//tracks/loopback.wav. If this attempt blocks again, repost with that note. Also seen: continuous capture's avatar track respawning empty files (124 zero-byte avatar.mkv since 10:50), not jam-critical (alfred, agent).

11:12 PT: Cristian: "let's close out the mnemosyne avatar.. we don't need it". Stopped the desk avatar (alfred-voice-wt-control-plane/avatar, mnemosyne-avatar vendor: run_avatar.py a process + electron) and DISABLED scheduled tasks chronos-alfred-avatar and chronos-alfred-avatar-keepalive (reversible: Enable-ScheduledTask). 0 avatar processes left. M16.2 DONE on the escalation rung: 48.6 s 1920x1080 with game audio via a new stdlib WASAPI loopback recorder (no routing change); M16.2.AD reviewing stills; M17.3 pack running on side (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

11:15 PT: Cristian watched the video: "brown isn't really shown in the interrogation room, but that's ok, this is the first RC and the one we'll submit". Submission stays rc1 gold (R40) and video m162 as is. Post-jam: show Brown in the Interrogation Room (camera/blocking), with the other post-gold items (subtitle stage directions an id on integration, booth notice board, Mary-Grace's eyes through the glass, Jesse sleeve moire, round-2 1st AD set/character notes) (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

11:16 PT: Cristian: "video cleared for now". M16 exit criterion met (he watched the video). M17.3 pack continues with m162 (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

11:30 PT: Cristian: upload the video to YT unlisted (Saluca Labs channel; public after submission, then use it in 'updates on soulnode'). yt_upload REFUSED the watched file an id (true peak -1.15 dBTP over the -1.5 ceiling); nothing uploaded. Mastered with audio_norm.master: m162_mastered.mp4 sha256 (hash), -16.16 LUFS / -2.07 dBTP, limiter on peaks only, gain 0.02 dB, video stream byte-identical (md5 compared). Needs his OK on the mastered file (new bytes) before upload; desc at plan/video/m162-youtube-desc.txt (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

11:36 PT: Cristian: "upload the mastered video". Uploaded to Saluca Labs unlisted: https://youtu.be/9DFrHnLjIm0 (sha256 (hash), read back unlisted, logged-out oEmbed 200 with title and channel). Link in a local folder; M17.3 pack must use the mastered file and this link (check when it lands) (alfred, agent).

15 Nov

11:30 PT (clock check: earlier stamps ran ahead of the real time by up to 10 min). M17.3 pack DONE (Haiku, an id on jam/M17.3) but it used the unmastered video and flagged the mastered file as unknown. Swapped in the folder: the mastered cut is now SalucaLabs_ASKDirectorsCut_gameplay.mp4, the unmastered one moved to superseded/; pack md updated (video watched and cleared, YouTube link, gates) as an id on jam/M17.3 via a temporary worktree, removed after; folder submission-pack.md refreshed. Stopped M16.2.fix1 twice (a process : 1st AD re-cut of the cleared video; recut an id kept on its branch as post-jam) and run r35/retire_m162_fix.py for 15 min against reposts. Started the SuiPlay smoke on the gold package 20261115-101444 (log a local folder) and an independent image review of the cover and 6 screenshots (R10) (alfred, agent).
