 ## Entry points
-- **Firmware**: `scripts/build-firmware.sh`, `scripts/flash-firmware.sh`, or `scripts/build-and-flash-firmware.sh` (requires submodules initialised). `build-firmware.sh` can take an explicit variant name like `memlcelium` or prompt interactively from the parsed `MEMLNautMode*` list and rewrite the active mode in `MEMLNaut-NISPS.ino`. The scripts target `rp2040:rp2040:solderparty_rp2350_stamp_xl:opt=Optimize3` and force C++20. Execution = `setup()`/`loop()` on Core 0, `setup1()`/`loop1()` on Core 1, audio ISR on Core 1.
+- **Firmware**: `scripts/build-firmware.sh`, `scripts/flash-firmware.sh`, or `scripts/build-and-flash-firmware.sh` (requires submodules initialised). `build-firmware.sh` can take an explicit variant name like `MEMLCelium` or prompt interactively from the parsed `MEMLNautMode*` list and rewrite the active mode in `MEMLNaut-NISPS.ino`. Matching is case-insensitive, but user-facing prompts preserve the canonical mode capitalization. The scripts target `rp2040:rp2040:solderparty_rp2350_stamp_xl:opt=Optimize3` and force C++20. Execution = `setup()`/`loop()` on Core 0, `setup1()`/`loop1()` on Core 1, audio ISR on Core 1.
 - **Playground**: `cd playground && python3 -m http.server` (or `serve.sh` / `serve-coop.py`), open `a-immersive.html`. Append `?debug=1` to expose `window.__nisps`.
 - **WASM rebuild**: `cd playground/wasm && ./build.sh` (needs `emcc`).
 - **Tests**: `npx playwright test` (auto-spawns server on 7331).

 Notes:
 - The scripts build for `rp2040:rp2040:solderparty_rp2350_stamp_xl` with `Optimize3`.
 - The build forces C++20 because the firmware uses `std::span` and concepts.
-- `build-firmware.sh` accepts an optional variant name such as `memlcelium` or `breakor`. If you omit it in an interactive shell, the script parses `MEMLNaut-NISPS.ino`, prompts for a variant, and rewrites the active `MEMLNAUT_MODE_TYPE` before building.
+- `build-firmware.sh` accepts an optional variant name such as `MEMLCelium` or `BreakOr`. Matching remains case-insensitive, so `memlcelium` still works. If you omit it in an interactive shell, the script parses `MEMLNaut-NISPS.ino`, prompts for a variant, and rewrites the active `MEMLNAUT_MODE_TYPE` before building.
 - `flash-firmware.sh` accepts an optional mountpoint argument, or auto-detects common UF2 bootloader mounts such as `/run/media/$USER/RP2350` and `/run/media/$USER/RPI-RP2`.
