First of three M3 cycles (Theme -> shell 2a -> Title). Palette.gd consts
as the single source of truth; game_theme.tres for flat-bordered UI;
shaders for the three signature surfaces. EB Garamond replaces
proprietary Georgia. Proof is a human-eyeballed showcase harness.

Flip considering-state to done+merged+live-confirmed. Strike the streaming
item — the considering-state reframes the wait and is tested/live; real
streaming's transport rework + mid-stream failure surface isn't worth it for
the POC. Streaming spec retained as a record (banner SHELVED). Includes the
human's folded-in further-down roadmap ideas.

Pivot M2 anti-freeze from streaming to a lighter considering-state: a rotating
in-character 'the Master considers…' indicator (authored content, §13 spirit)
on the proven non-streaming loop, plus the HttpTransport request-timeout fix so
a hung call yields to the fallback instead of spinning forever. Meets §14's
anti-freeze goal by reframing the wait; near-zero new failure surface. Streaming
design PARKED (banner + roadmap ○), revisit if playtest shows the wait hurts.
Conscious §14 deviation recorded per §18.

Real token streaming to hide the ~2s call (§14). Proxy emits its own minimal
NDJSON (delta/done/error); /dm/narrate becomes a 200 stream (422 stays sync,
model errors become an in-stream frame). Client reworks to an HTTPClient
poll-loop StreamTransport behind a testable seam; hold-back tag filter;
keep-partial mid-stream degrade; folds in the HttpTransport timeout fix.
Narrator first; NPC fast-follow.

M2 core experiment. Server owns persona+knowledge (spoilers/IP, no DB);
client owns live state and computes available_moves. Free text straight
to the NPC prompt (no Adjudicator). Sibling NpcService + pure MoveValidator;
moves validated against state, invalid dropped, prose always kept (§6).

First M2 vertical slice: CanonLog -> HTTP -> /dm/narrate -> prose ->
screen -> fact-harvest, with a §13 degraded-DM fallback on any failure.
Pure DmService core behind an injectable DmTransport seam (headless-
testable); throwaway harness scene; one authored fallback line under
client/content (renderer owns the file's home).

The client half of the canon log contract: typed RefCounted model with
invariants-in-the-model, Luck-centric game state, new-game construction
from origin+world+creation, turn-to-turn mutators, and a pure regex tag
extractor. Headless GUT-tested logic layer; UI/HTTP/save-load deferred.

Design spec for the §11 canon log, plus origin seeds as thin initial-state
overlays over a single static world. Three layers (world content / origin seed /
runtime canon log), the in/out boundary (numeric Luck never enters the AI
payload, §7), field-level schemas, new-game construction order, turn-to-turn
maintenance, and JSON storage validated on both client and api.
Folds content/npcs and content/quests under content/world/; adds
content/world/{locations,items} and content/origins. fallback/ kept outside
world/ (authored prose, not id-referenced).
