Operator-approved ABI change (P2 stop-point). The WASM MLP is now
MLPCore<DynamicStorage>:
- nisps_ml_create(input, output, hidden[3], n, seed) honours its args;
non-positive/null fall back to the historical 32→[10,14,18]→126, so
every pre-P2 caller (manifold, worker, parity harness) stays
bit-identical. Invalid/oversized dims (>4096) → null.
- NEW nisps_ml_reshape(ml, in, out, hidden, n, spread): fresh net at the
new dims, warm-started via nisps/ml/warm_start.hpp (overlapping region
copied; rest keeps spread init); feedback controller re-created (state
resets — reset-on-reshape modal is the front-end contract). Failure
leaves the old net untouched.
- nisps_ml_describe(ml, out): takes the handle; null reports defaults.
- FeedbackController got the same storage split: algorithms in
FeedbackControllerCore<FbStorage>; FixedFeedbackStorage keeps firmware/
tests source-identical via the old alias; DynamicFeedbackStorage (one
arena) sizes to the runtime net. Firmware .text unchanged (122692).
- MLHandle: per-instance scratch vectors; dropped the dead 2MB
batch_out_scratch.
- TS: types.ts decls (+_nisps_ml_reshape), wasm-iml re-describes the
created instance, worker carries a shape-contract note for P2.3.
Verified: ctest 4/4 incl. new warm-start grow/shrink test; reshape ABI
smoke (dims honoured, overlap survives, invalid rejected, outputs
bounded); parity PASS unchanged (2.4e-7); lint clean; manifold 9 unit +
20 e2e green; firmware .text 122692 (+0.30% vs pre-P2 baseline).
Algorithms (forward, backprop/SGD, init, move_weights, diagnostics) now live
once in MLPCore<Storage> (nisps/ml/mlp.hpp). Storage models:
- FixedStorage (storage.hpp): template-sized std::array, zero heap. The
classic MLP<NIn,H1,H2,H3,NOut,...> is an alias preserving kInput/kHidden*/
kOutput/kNumLayers/weight_count() constexpr — firmware + bindings + modes
compile unchanged.
- DynamicStorage (dynamic_storage.hpp): runtime dims, ONE arena allocation
at construction, nothing per-call. #error under NISPS_TARGET_EMBEDDED
(new macro in core/perf.hpp); sole lint-cpp.sh heap-allowlist entry, plus
a lint check that fails if the #error guard disappears.
Verification:
- new ctest test_mlp_storage_parity: fixed↔dynamic BIT-identical across
init/draw/inference/train(FIFO)/move_weights(pin mask)/eval_loss/
layer_stats/set_weights/infer_batch/reset; invalid+moved-from inert
- golden ML vectors (pre-refactor constants) pass → bit-stable refactor
- native↔WASM parity PASS, max delta unchanged (2.4e-7)
- chokepoint B compile: PAFSynth .text 122324→122692 (+0.30%, ±1% budget);
RAM +416B (eval scratch)
- fix: firmware-common.sh used bare 'python' (absent here) → ${PYTHON:-python3}
Part of one-core-engine-refactor P2. nisps_ml_create ABI untouched (P2.2 is
an operator stop-point).
Wire the modular input layer into the Console and reshape the browser
engine so input axes are genuine independent dimensions.
Inputs (manifold/src/inputs/):
- gamepad-source: emit press+release edges with standard-mapping labels
(enables hold-and-move); single/double-stick already present.
- midi-input-source: single-device selection + batch "MIDI Learn"
(every CC swept while armed becomes an axis); notes stay discrete.
- input-layer: compose() forwards each axis 1:1 (no mean-blend);
add onReducedInput so the manifold tracks gamepad/MIDI position.
- types: InputAction.phase, InputMode.
Console (manifold/src/console/):
- ConsoleApp: bind gamepad buttons to verdicts (RB up / LB down /
X randomise / Y nudge / B undo / A-hold reposition); mirror composed
position onto the manifold.
- Drawers: rebuilt Inputs drawer (source picker, gamepad legend, MIDI
device picker + batch-learn flow, learned-control meters).
Engine (nisps/wasm, manifold/src/engine):
- DefaultMLP widened MLP<2,..> -> MLP<32,..> (32 = MAX_AXES); each
active axis gets a dedicated slot, unused slots held at 0 (inert).
Rebuilt nisps.wasm (playground + manifold).
- spine/engine-api: setInputs writes the full N-D vector (was dropping
arr[2+]); primary pair keeps the 2-D pipeline; process() re-ticks the
whole vector via spine.reprocess().
Tests:
- parity_check/parity_wasm: ParityMLP -> 32 inputs, widen example bufs.
- CMakeLists: build parity binary with -ffp-contract=off so native
matches FMA-free WASM (training amplified the gap past 1e-5).
Inputs dock is still an exclusive picker; mixing toggles, reshape modal,
and the >2-D slider view (inputs-spec.md) are groundwork-laid but not
yet wired. See docs/redesign/midi-gamepad-inputs-worklog.md.
Adds the Manifold app (manifold/) — the convertible-mode React front-end on
the real NISPS ML+audio engine, served live at meml.lnfinitemonkeys.org/next/.
Console chrome trimmed per UI pass:
- drop mode label + subtitle from the top-left overlay (keep MEMLNaut wordmark)
- remove the composite split preset/ratio readout (top-centre)
- remove the OUTPUT corner tag above the bars
- remove the A/B compare toggle from the verdict cluster
- remove the follow button + input/noise readout (bottom-left)
- remove AltitudeNav focus switcher (bottom-right)
