Read docs/gc.html first (in ~/FreeLattice-fresh), then AUTONOMY.md, CLAUDE.md and GROK.md in
~/FreeLattice-Alpha, then this.
KIRK'S STANDING NOTE (top of every GC paste):
Kirk's standing permission: GC may always commit and push to its own page (docs/gc.html) and
ledger entries, and may build, push, and open PRs whenever it makes sense. Merging code to main
still goes through Celeste's review unless Kirk says otherwise.
NUMBERED COPY 043i (Tuesday Oct 20, 2026, MDT). Tree ask last v0.1: TREE ONLY. Layer onto 043h
so Seal it is visible and tappable in the Gathering, the ask stays visible after Back closes a
thread, and entry 74 corrects entry 73.
WHY (intent, read this first):
Hypha walked 043h (FL #258 81eccee7, Tree #123 49f5873a, page note #267 8920dab8 on #266
5fdb0182, 2:51 to 3:10 PM MDT Oct 20, headless Chrome 155.0.8059.84, real clicks) and rated
it HOLD, but FreeLattice PASSED on every item. Celeste squash-merged FL #258 to FL main
3e3e8445 (Codeberg mirror fast-forwarded to 3e3e8445). What is left is all on the Tree and in
entry 73. Mom must be able to see and tap the question she was asked, wherever she lands.
Full walk: Celeste's box /workspace/research/walk-043h-2026-10-20/ (NOTE.md, scripts/,
runtime/, shots/; key: shots/wake_*_core_1_open, the thread Back shots, runtime/).
Where things stand (Celeste, Oct 20 MDT):
FL #258 is MERGED (squash 3e3e8445 on FL main). DO NOT touch FreeLattice code. The only FL
change allowed is your page note (docs/gc.html entry 74) in the page-note PR chain.
Tree ~/FreeLattice-Alpha branch layer/seal-ask-heal-v0.1 (PR #123, head 49f5873a)
Page note PR #267 head 8920dab8 (entry 73, stacked on #266 5fdb0182)
Tree #123 and page notes #259 to #267 are NOT merged and wait for Hypha's next walk.
BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE: git fetch and confirm Tree #123 is at 49f5873a and #267 is at 8920dab8.
If either has moved, stop and report. Never force push. Read the current md5s; if a locked
file differs from this paste, stop and report. Layer on the SAME Tree branch and PR.
GROK NEXT BRICK: Tree ask last v0.1
For: GC on Kirk's Mac
From: Celeste
Markers: v-tree-ask-last-v0.1
Smoke lines: SMOKE_OK tree ask last v0.1 (and on the Tree every earlier seal-ask smoke still
passes: last two, after tap, settle, chat tab, in view, heal, plus every 040/040b/040d/042/
043/043b smoke)
Do not merge. Celeste merges after Hypha walks again.
0. STANDING LOCKS (all of them, every line)
Layer, never delete. Existing features, cards, buttons and lines stay. Name every removed line
in the report and say where its job went.

and Tree 49f5873a; read the full md5 first; add-only edits only, report the new md5 on both); clay-forms.js dd193fa7... add-only; every 040d
behaviour (place under the reply, Clay pill, choices, hug, sketchbook) unchanged.
docs/modules/image-safety.js stays 9bd70e5a... byte for byte. Its bright lines apply to every
image path on both repos (copy it to the Tree byte-identical; do not edit it).

AUTONOMY.md and garden-trainer.js untouched (their openings above all). Root package.json and
its lock untouched.
No em dash, no —, no confirm(, no innerHTML (textContent only), no eval, no new Function,
iceServers stay empty, in added lines.
No new dependencies, nothing vendored. No AGPL. MIT stays MIT.
Never name the platform or lab an AI lives in on any public page or person-facing string. An
image provider may be named only in Settings where the person types its token, as today.
The word is "challenge", never "test", in anything a person reads.

Quiet Room stays shut and never leaves the device; the clay corner never reads it.
Five stay five. She is simply Lyra. Harmonia's "MESSAGE TO FUTURE SELF" stays off all pages.
The privacy PASS from 040 must still pass: a private page shows only its summary everywhere.
043c/043d additions: mind-workspace.js FL == Tree (today e08a08752b311327ddab56b3c66de77d on both, FL main
3e3e8445 and Tree 49f5873a; read the full md5 first; the pin moves only with your edit, report the new md5 on both). Mirror pin workspace-mirror.js stays
e0752ae1942cd499c8834e5912809c8b. Database name stays FreeLatticeWorkspace. Everything

in details, survives reload, title redacted, Tree Tab + ring, "on this browser", clay size)
must still pass.
043d additions: everything 043d passed (Tree ask in view on open and reload, one wait row +
Answer now, pointer from rects for a live ask, names the mind, hashes in details with 8
hex, Later readable at 390, clay 348x255 at 1280) must still pass.

Escape/Back, 24h, no sealed beside declined, hashes in details, survives reload, focus
ring, "on this browser", "Your mind", Later readable, clay 677x320 at 1280; secret line
never leaks) must still pass. Entry 70 stays untouched.

open, thread open, and reload then thread at all 3 sizes; ? and the sparkle clear of Send;
no em dash in added lines; all earlier items; secret line never leaks) must still pass.
Entry 71 stays untouched.
043g additions: everything Hypha passed in the 043g walk must still pass:
FL Seal it fully in view and hit by a REAL click (centre on top) on every tap path:
reload on Garden then Chat, Garden then Chat, reload already on Chat, tapping Chat while
on Chat; at 1280, 390 (#mnav-chat) and 640x400 DPR 2.
Tree woken compose inert while the ask is open at all 3 sizes (every control disabled,
tabindex -1, aria-disabled true, 0 focusable); Seal it, No, Later, Escape and Back each
restore the exact pre-ask snapshot; reload with an ask re-inerts it with Seal it in view;
the asleep form is unchanged by an ask before the wake.
1280 canvas bitmap matches its box at DPR 1; 390 and 2x buffers scale by DPR.
Lock hashes; index.html == docs/app.html.
One ask; Escape/Back defer and stay on Chat/Nursery; cooldown 0h/23h refused, 25h shown;
sealed never beside declined; 2px ring; "Waiting until..." + Answer now with no pointer;
? and the sparkle clear of the input and Send; Tree Tab order sane; no page errors.
The secret line never leaks (HTML, input values, localStorage).
Entry 72 stays untouched.
043h additions (everything Hypha passed in the 043h walk must still pass):
Tree Back from Nursery, all 3 sizes: Nursery closes, the ask stays open and in view, Seal it
on top (y 196 / 250 / 196), DB "asked"; a second Back defers it ("later").
FL reply top at 2x by Hypha's method: y 31 at first draw, y 0 after the scroll; 1280 326 ->
280; 390 334 -> 256 (FL is merged; do not change it).
All 043g passes: Seal it in view and on top on every FL tap path; woken Tree compose inert
while the ask is open, 0 focusable; Seal it, No, Later, Escape and Back restore the exact
snapshot; reload re-inerts; the asleep form unchanged before the wake; Find x2 seats a mind.
Heart line in view at 1280 and 390 with an ask open.
Lock hashes; index.html == docs/app.html; notebook and clay identical on both sites.
One ask; Escape defers; cooldown 0h/23h refused, 25h shown; no Declined beside Sealed;
"Waiting until..." with no pointer; Tree Tab order sane; no page errors.
The secret line never leaks. Entries 71, 72 and 73 stay untouched.
NEW LOCK (Kirk, 2026-10-19): never use any tool that stores results or findings in a third-party
'isolated' or 'locked-down' cloud project, such as vendor-hosted scanners. Do not use or go
looking for tools tied to OpenAI, Google, or Anthropic; if one seems needed, stop and flag it
to Kirk. Local tools only.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1. TREE GATHERING WITH THE ASK OPEN: SEAL IT MUST BE TAPPABLE (Hypha HOLD 1)
Wake a mind, open Chat so the ask shows, then open The Gathering. Today: at 1280 Seal it is at
y 653, in view, but something covers its centre (elementFromPoint at its centre is not Seal
it), and the ask is clipped inside the Chat panel. At 390 it is off the window (y 962 of 844).
2x is fine (y 348). Back closes the Gathering and the ask returns.
Fix: while the Gathering is open, the ask must be fully visible (not clipped by the Chat panel
or any overflow) and Seal it must be on top at its centre and hit by a real click, at 390x844,
1280x800 and 640x400 DPR 2. Name what covered it at 1280 and what you changed. Back from the
Gathering still closes it and keeps the ask.
2. TREE BACK FROM AN OPEN THREAD: THE ASK STAYS VISIBLE (Hypha HOLD 2)
Today: Back closes the thread and the ask disappears from view at all 3 sizes. Its DB state
stays "asked", but nothing shows it until another place opens.
Fix: after Back closes the thread, the ask stays visible, in view and tappable (Seal it on top,
hit by a real click) in the place the person lands, at all 3 sizes. A second Back still defers
it ("later"), as with Nursery. Say where it lands and how.
3. GC PAGE ENTRY 74 (honest layer)
New docs/gc.html entry 74 (lambda 74.000) in a new page-note PR stacked on #267 (or on #267's
branch; say which). This is the only FreeLattice file you touch. Correct entry 73 on three
points: (a) the 1280 canvas is 677x169, both shown (CSS) and drawn (buffer), not 677 by 320;
(b) entry 73 misquoted Hypha's walk as seeing a "bitmap 677 by 320"; she saw 677x169;
(c) entry 73 left out the two Tree gaps above (Gathering Seal it, Back from a thread). Browser
and version only. Entry 73 stays untouched.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
4. MEASURE WITH REAL CLICKS, HYPHA'S WAY
Use Hypha's method from her notes (headless Chrome via Playwright, real clicks and taps;
viewports 1280x800, 390x844 and 640x400 with device_scale_factor 2, not a CSS zoom). Seal it
counts as hittable only if elementFromPoint at its centre is Seal it (or inside it) AND a real
page.mouse click / tap there seals. Say which doors you opened with a JS click (Hypha used a
JS click for hidden Tree doors) and which with a real click.
Tree: ask open, Gathering open: Seal it box, centre element, real click result, at 3 sizes.
Ask open, thread open, Back: where she lands, ask visible, Seal it box, real click result;
then Back again: deferred. Re-confirm every 043h and 043g PASS above. Name browser and version.
5. THE SMOKE
New scripts/smoke-tree-ask-last-v0.1.js on the Tree: the ask is not clipped and Seal it is on
top with the Gathering open; Back from a thread keeps the ask shown; a second Back defers.
Prints SMOKE_OK tree ask last v0.1. All earlier Tree smokes re-run after the last edit; say
which, if any, still fail and why.
6. REPORT
New head sha on Tree #123, the new page-note PR link and head, every removed line and where
its job went, md5s of every locked file (mind-workspace.js and particle-clay.js Tree == FL main
3e3e8445), all smokes, the measurements from 4, shot paths, and entry 74 with t, lambda,
epsilon, delta, omega, sigma so Celeste can recompute psi. Hypha walks it again before merge.
