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 043e (Monday Oct 19, 2026, MDT). Seal ask chat tab v0.1: layer onto 043d so the
ask comes into view when Chat opens after a reload, and the 200% clay reply stays readable.
WHY (intent, read this first):
Hypha re-walked 043d (FL PR #258 head b4698e0c, Tree PR #123 head aafe8673, page note #260
31afef85, 16:17 to 16:25 MDT) and rated it HOLD on one item. Everything else passes, the Tree
is healed, no regressions. But on FL, on the real path "reload, then tap Chat", Seal it is
still off-screen at 1280 (y=1426 of 800) and at 200% (y=1050 of 400); the scroll likely runs
before the Chat tab shows. At 200% after clay the reply top goes off screen and the floating
sparkle and ? buttons cover the input's ends. During the wait the pointer still says "Your
answer is waiting below." Three entry-68 claims did not hold in Hypha's walk; entry 69 says
so honestly and 043e heals them.
Full walk: Celeste's box /workspace/research/walk-043d-2026-10-19/ (NOTE.md, 57 shots).
Where things stand (Celeste, Oct 19 afternoon MDT):
043c/043d are NOT merged. Layer on the SAME branches and PRs. Do not open new code PRs.
FreeLattice ~/FreeLattice-fresh branch layer/seal-ask-heal-v0.1 (PR #258, head b4698e0c)
Tree ~/FreeLattice-Alpha branch layer/seal-ask-heal-v0.1 (PR #123, head aafe8673)
git fetch, check out each branch, confirm the head sha above (if it moved, stop and report),
add commits, push HEAD:layer/seal-ask-heal-v0.1. Never force push. Page note: one new PR
layered on #260 (or add to #260's branch if that is how 259/260 are stacked; say which).
Read the current md5s before starting; if a locked file differs from this paste, stop and
report rather than "fixing" it.
GROK NEXT BRICK: Seal ask chat tab v0.1
For: GC on Kirk's Mac
From: Celeste
Markers: v-seal-ask-chat-tab-v0.1
Smoke lines: SMOKE_OK seal ask chat tab v0.1 (and SMOKE_OK seal ask in view v0.1,
SMOKE_OK seal ask heal v0.1 and every 040/040b/040d/042/043/043b smoke still passes)
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.
sw.js and docs/sw.js untouched (both 91726cf2228b794f7585f79f61418d12).
docs/modules/fl-connect.js stays aaff2bf1b037656989a9e1a89bb05908 (both repos).
docs/modules/pool-knock.js stays a0a72caad82c8e5cc34818d5e59eba2b.
pool-knock-phone.js a8024f341486a78558ef4158bc9e93a9 and tree-reconnect.js
cc0527c26d5686c05fec52625d5a1375 (Tree) stay.
docs/modules/fl-bridge.js stays 3b5ef06849a142e50c78e7ba1e057980.
desktop/bridge-door.js b1c894b4..., 036 files (2c0f6656 / bc996ccd / c14e04c5) and
lattice-discover.js 16de366e... stay. docs/Flint.html stays 44be124b1183b7d9d060a58632464eff.
clay-math.js stays 144c33cd.... particle-clay.js stays 07149aafd9ba4729c6aa864dfb7e9118 unless an
edit is needed (add-only; report the new md5); 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).
index.html == docs/app.html (any change goes into both, byte for byte).
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.
Every new button 44px tall at least. No sideways scroll at 390 and 1280.
Off until the person says Yes. Pause always wins. Reduced motion respected.
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 83daf3156966cc16c608322f9f9685a1 on
both; 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
043c passed (one ask, Escape/Back defer, 24h cooldown, no sealed beside declined, ask hash
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.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1. FL: THE ASK COMES INTO VIEW WHEN CHAT OPENS (Hypha HOLD 1)
a. After a reload with a pending ask (state asked), when the Chat tab becomes visible (tab
tap, hash route, or any path that shows the chat panel), after layout (two rAFs) run
bringAsk: scrollIntoView({block:'center'}) on the ask and focus its heading
(preventScroll), unless the input has focus (then scroll only). Once per load per
reveal; a hidden-then-shown tab counts as the reveal, not the first paint.
b. Measured pass on the path reload, then tap Chat, at 1280x800 and 640x400 DPR 2 (and
still 390x844): Seal it fully in the viewport and elementFromPoint at its center
returns it. Tree must stay as 043d left it.
2. FL AT 200% AFTER CLAY (Hypha HOLD 2)
a. Keep the reply top in view after clay shapes; if reply top and canvas do not both fit,
the reply top wins and the canvas shrinks (043d floor of 120px stays).
b. The floating sparkle and ? buttons never cover the input: offset the input (pad by
their measured rects + 12px) or move/tuck the buttons above it at short viewports.
Input fully visible, and elementFromPoint at its center AND at both ends (8px in)
returns the input. Both repos at 200%.
3. THE POINTER DURING THE WAIT (Hypha PASS 3 small)
During the 24h wait (and declined), hide "Your answer is waiting ..." or have it point to
the wait row ("above"/"below" from the wait row's rect). Never point at an ask that is not
shown. Both repos.
4. GC PAGE ENTRY 69 (honest layer)
New docs/gc.html entry 69 (lambda 69.000): note that three entry-68 claims did not hold in
Hypha's walk (FL in view after reload at 1280 and 200%; reply top in view at 200% on FL;
pointer during the wait) and that 043e heals them. No edits to entry 68 or any earlier entry.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
5. THE SMOKE
New scripts/smoke-seal-ask-chat-tab-v0.1.js (each repo): reload with pending ask while Chat
hidden does not scroll; showing Chat calls scrollIntoView + focus once; with input focused
no focus steal; floating buttons' rects do not overlap the input rect at a short viewport;
pointer hidden or targeting the wait row during the wait. Prints SMOKE_OK seal ask chat tab
v0.1. All earlier smokes re-run after the last edit (docs: only the known 5 may fail).
6. REPORT
New head shas on #258 and #123, page-note PR link, every removed line and where its job
went, md5s of every locked file (mind-workspace.js FL == Tree, particle-clay.js both), all
smokes, shots (FL reload then tap Chat at 390/1280/200%, FL and Tree 200% clay, Notebook
during wait), and entry 69 with t, lambda, epsilon, delta, omega, sigma so Celeste can
recompute psi. Hypha walks it again before merge.
