Phase 1 group 8 (S8, ST2, L14).
- S8: the vendored src/daisysp tree (96 files, 41 .cpp compiled into every
firmware build) and its sketch-tree symlink. Zero consumers — nisps replaced
daisysp's PitchShifter with a custom granular implementation. Corrected
firmware/README.md and setup-firmware-toolchain.sh, which called it a live
submodule. The attribution comment in nisps/dsp/pitch_shift.hpp stays: it is
an honest provenance note about a port, not a dependency.
Noted while verifying: src/memllib/examples/KassiaAudioApp includes
../../daisysp/..., but examples/ is not symlinked into the sketch tree and is
never compiled by the firmware build, so the deletion stands.
- ST2: input_router.hpp was a zero-logic speculative layer with one consumer;
the .ino now calls bind_peripherals directly.
- L14: peripherals.hpp — deleted kAnalogInputCount, PeripheralBindings and the
unused spread local, and extracted the duplicated commit-and-train block into
one helper. The audit's suggested commit_and_train(mode, feedback) signature
could NOT be behaviour-identical: repositioning() implies placing() (both
live in ExploreState::Placing), so dispatching on feedback state inside the
helper would silently reroute a TogB2 press mid-reposition from commit_place
to commit_reposition, which differs (no snapshot restore, clears
reposition_). Implemented as commit_and_train(mode, feedback, bool
reposition) with the branch decided at the call site, preserving behaviour.
Firmware is not compiled by any gate yet (that arrives with the PlatformIO
migration, plan §5/S9), so this group is verified by reading and grep only.
Gates: run-all-tests.sh ALL GREEN.
Phase 1 group 4 (S33, S34, L54).
- S33: removed 12 dead entries across the full 5-layer registration chain
(bindings.cpp KEEPALIVE -> EXPORTED_FUNCTIONS -> the NispsModule declaration
table -> the WasmIML wrapper -> the EngineApi facade): nisps_ml_reset,
example_count, move_weights, feedback_learning_paused, feedback_drag,
jolt_lr_scale, jolt_tick_lr_ramp, pipeline_state_size/save_state/load_state,
feedback_placing and feedback_state. Each was grepped against manifold/src,
manifold/tests, the e2e specs, manifold/tests/wasm-load.ts and
tests/cpp/parity_wasm.mjs — the parity gate builds its own API via cwrap and
is a real consumer, so it counts.
KEPT deliberately: EXPORTED_RUNTIME's heap views + ccall/cwrap (the parity
harness and wasm-load.ts depend on them), and nisps_ml_feedback_static_output,
whose C export IS called directly by parity_wasm.mjs even though no TS
wrapper reaches it. Also dropped parity_wasm.mjs's moveWeights cwrap, which
was declared but never invoked.
- S34: deleted the publishWeights_ channel — EngineSink.setWeights,
Spine.setWeights/weights()/liveWeights and every call site. It ran a C->heap
copy plus a fresh Float32Array allocation at up to 200 Hz into a field
nothing read. getWeights survives for persistence and the debug probe.
- L54: worklet loader — deleted the unused imports object, the 'c' branch,
exMap and the duplicate second loop, and replaced the silent `() => 0` stub
with one that throws, so a missing import fails loudly instead of returning
plausible zeros into the audio path.
manifold/public/nisps.{js,wasm} rebuilt with the trimmed export list (emcc
3.1.69, the CI-pinned version) and committed — the freshness gate added in
Phase 0 requires it, and the webhook ships this artifact to production.
Gates: run-all-tests.sh ALL GREEN, parity 1273 floats within 1e-5.
Third failure uncovered by the restored pipeline. With checkout and the C++
build fixed, CI reached the WASM step and died on `[build-wasm] emcc not found
at emcc`: ci.yml passed `EMCC: emcc`, but the script's existence check
(`[[ ! -x "$EMCC" && ! -f "$EMCC" ]]`) only understands paths, so it looked for
a file literally named "emcc" in the working directory. This has been broken
for as long as the override existed; it was invisible because CI never got past
checkout to run it.
Resolve a bare command name through `command -v` before the check, and drop the
now-redundant EMCC override in ci.yml — setup-emsdk already puts emcc on PATH,
which is what the script's own default looks for.
Verified by invoking it the way CI does: `EMCC=emcc bash scripts/build-wasm.sh`
now builds. Incidentally confirms the new freshness gate is sound — the local
toolchain is the same pinned emcc 3.1.69, and the rebuild reproduced the
committed artifact byte-for-byte.
run-all-tests.sh ALL GREEN.
Phase 0 of the 2026-07 simplification audit (plan §1). CI has been 100% red on
main since 2026-07-13 and every "gates green" claim since rested on local runs.
- S7 / critic gap 2: push memllib `feat/nisps-core-swap` (3 commits incl. the
pin b37fc53) to monkey-w1n5t0n/memllib and repoint .gitmodules at the fork.
Those commits existed on exactly one disk; `git ls-remote` now resolves the
pin, so `submodules: recursive` checkout and fresh clones work again. Drops
the compensating unreachable-pin error paragraph in build-firmware-arch.sh.
- S24 / S31: the manifold-tests job regenerates from schemas/, runs the codegen
golden test, and fails on a dirty diff — the "schema changes ship with both
generated outputs" rule is now enforced rather than assumed.
- S32: a WASM freshness gate runs the parity harness against the *committed*
manifold/public/nisps.{js,wasm} before the CI rebuild overwrites it. That
artifact is what the webhook ships to production, so a stale commit now fails
loudly instead of shipping.
- critic gap 3 / operator decision §7.4: the VPS webhook
(~/.config/webhooks/meml-deploy.sh, not in this repo) waits for the `CI`
workflow to conclude success on the pushed SHA before building. Fail-closed;
MEML_SKIP_CI_GATE=1 for an emergency hand-deploy. Verified the gate query
returns `failure` for fa37047, i.e. it would have blocked that deploy.
- S31: corrected run-all-tests.sh's false "single command CI invokes" header.
Docs moved with the code: ALIGNMENT defect 1 deleted (resolved) and the rest
renumbered; MAP.md's unreachable-pin warning replaced with the fork pin and a
pointer to the §7.5 vendoring decision; ONBOARDING documents the deploy gate
and the tracked-WASM-ships-to-prod hazard; plan §1 marked burned down.
Gates: scripts/run-all-tests.sh ALL GREEN (ctest 4/4, parity 1273 floats within
1e-5, lint, typecheck, 33 Playwright specs).
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).
Map enter/exit-explore, reroll, nudge, begin-place, commit-place to the
peripheral buttons via the shared FeedbackController. (Not compiled here —
no arduino-cli; Placing-audition static_output hook is a flagged follow-up.)
Move the Arduino sketch into firmware/MEMLNaut-NISPS/ and bridge the
hardware (memllib) to the platform-agnostic nisps/ library through a
slim glue layer. Delete the legacy root-level *AudioApp.hpp,
modes/MEMLNautMode*.hpp, voicespaces/, IMLInterface.hpp, XiasriAnalysis,
and the src/memlp submodule.
Glue layout (firmware/MEMLNaut-NISPS/glue/):
audio_driver.hpp - bridge memllib block callback to Mode::process
via per-Mode templated trampoline (no virtual dispatch)
peripherals.hpp - joystick/pots/buttons -> Mode::set_input + ML primitives
midi_io.hpp - MIDI in -> mode.note_on/update_bpm/set_playing,
drains mode ControlEvent ring -> MIDI UART
mode_select.hpp - using-aliases mapping MEMLNautMode<Name> to
nisps::modes::*Mode (build script rewrites the
#define MEMLNAUT_MODE_TYPE line)
input_router.hpp / output_router.hpp - top-level wire/drain entry points
The sketch tree uses src/{memllib,daisysp,nisps} symlinks because
Arduino-CLI rejects ".." in include paths from sketch-tree headers.
mode_select.hpp #undefs Arduino's sq/min/max/abs/round macros before
including nisps headers (some nisps engines use those identifiers as
method names). The audio bridge struct is extern in the header and
defined in the .ino because inline + __not_in_flash section attribute
collide at link time.
Verification: arduino-cli compile succeeds for PAFSynth, ChannelStrip,
and BreakOr (rp2040:rp2040:solderparty_rp2350_stamp_xl:opt=Optimize3,
-std=gnu++20). Host C++ tests under nisps/build still pass (3 binaries,
110+ tests). Build script (scripts/build-firmware.sh) updated to point
at the new sketch path; mode-rewrite logic unchanged.
Closes meml-gkm.
Stream 7 wires nisps/ml + nisps/engines into the playground via Emscripten.
Highlights:
- nisps/wasm/bindings.cpp: flat C API per architecture.md §6.2. Fixed-arch
MLP<2, 10, 14, 18, 126>; engine string→type dispatch table with NoOp
fallback.
- scripts/build-wasm.sh: emcc invocation, MODULARIZE=1, exports listed
explicitly; produces playground/public/nisps.{js,wasm}.
- playground/src/ml/wasm-iml.ts: main-thread MLP host (sync inference,
sync training, RL ops, weights I/O, layer stats, localStorage).
- playground/src/ml/wasm-worker.ts: disposable Web Worker for off-thread
async training, owns its own WASM instance.
- playground/src/ml/dataset.ts: Float32Array-backed FIFO with sample-weight
modes (uniform/global/local/combined). Port of legacy dataset.js.
- playground/src/audio/engine-host.ts: AudioContext + AudioWorkletNode
lifecycle, with start/stop/setEngine/setParams.
- playground/src/audio/worklet/nisps-processor.ts: WASM-loading
AudioWorkletProcessor that runs engine.process_block per 128-sample
block. Loads its own WASM instance from main-thread-supplied bytes
(no fetch in worklet).
- playground/src/stores/ml-store.ts: wired stub methods to WasmIML
singleton; lazy initialize().
- playground/src/debug/probe.ts: window.__nisps now calls real WasmIML
via the store; lazy-init on first use.
Verified:
- bash scripts/build-wasm.sh succeeds (94 KB nisps.wasm)
- bun run typecheck OK
- bun run build OK (production bundle)
- vite dev server serves /nisps.{js,wasm} with COOP/COEP
Known limitation: WASM is fixed at one MLP shape. Multi-arch deferred —
documented in nisps/wasm/README.md.
