Plan §3 marked burned down, noting where execution departed from the written
plan and why: L35 deleted rather than relocated (zero consumers), and S35's
describe ABI widening forcing two out-of-scope buffer fixes. Also records the
package.json test-glob bug found en route — new unit tests were silently not
being run.
ALIGNMENT defect 5's trailing sentence updated: the behaviour bugs it listed as
pending are fixed.
The three top-level orienting docs are each falsified by several of the eight
preceding commits, so they land here as one sync rather than being split
across commits that would each leave them half-true. Same phase, same push.
MAP.md — removed fixed_buffer.hpp, voice_space.hpp, the src/daisysp entry and
its symlink from the sketch-tree list, input_router.hpp/wire_inputs (inputs are
wired by bind_peripherals now), test_fixed_buffer.cpp, SplitStage/ReadoutStrip/
InputMini, BackendAdvanced.tsx, and feedback/rng.ts; corrected the primitives
count 12 -> 7; replaced the "engine LIFTED from playground/src" provenance;
rewrote the perf-attribute convention and deleted the NISPS_AUDIO_FUNC gotcha
(both macros and gotcha are gone).
docs/AGENT-REFERENCE.md — the memory-section-attribute instruction now names
only the macros that exist; input_router.hpp dropped from the firmware tree;
symlink list and the submodule-init note no longer mention daisysp.
ALIGNMENT.md — defect 5 (dead mass and registry sprawl) rewritten: the deletion
half is done, so the entry now scopes to what actually remains, which is the
registry/dual-truth half (Phase 3) plus the stale specs (docs pass). Per the
ALIGNMENT convention this is a rewrite-to-current, not a checkbox.
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).
Replace the vendored runtime MLP in vcv/src/iml.hpp (DetRng + 3D-weight-store
MLP + Dataset + IML) with a THIN, Rack-free adapter over the shared core:
nisps::ml::MLPCore<nisps::ml::DynamicStorage> (8->[16,24,16]->16, the P2 dynamic
case), nisps::Rng, and the core MLP's own FIFO dataset. Behaviour changes from
the vendored approximation to core-exact firmware/WASM semantics.
- MEMLNaut.cpp: staged/pending weight buffers and patch JSON now use the core's
flat [weights..][biases..] vector (nisps::IML<float>::Weights); patch version
bumped to 3. Double-buffer / single-writer threading discipline unchanged.
- New ctest tests/cpp/test_vcv_iml_parity.cpp: seeded train/infer/move_weights
session through the adapter is memcmp-equal to a bare MLPCore<DynamicStorage>.
- Docs: vcv-module.md delta #5 marked CLOSED (2026-07-18); MAP.md vcv/ updated.
Closes vcv-module.md delta #5.
- plan P2 marked landed (hardware timing spot-check deferred to the
chokepoint-B session on physical MEMLNaut)
- ALIGNMENT: defect #3 resolved by the runtime-shaped browser MLP
- MAP/AGENT-REFERENCE/nisps-wasm-README: describe the honoured-dims
create + reshape ABI; note per-mode dims become schema-real at P5
- fresh wasm artifacts from the gate run
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).
Consolidate docs/slp-workshop/SPEC.md into docs/specs/slp-workshop-
firmware.md so the project has a single SLP-Workshop spec. The unified
spec is now two parts:
- Part I (§1-8, shipped/stable): the mode + Jolt & OU-explore gestures.
- Part II (§9-13, planned): the output-mode evolution — Continuous/Rhythm
stream model, gate sequences, CV/MIDI output config, Manifold UX, and
the locked operator decisions (2026-06-28).
Frontmatter bumped stable -> evolving (the doc now spans shipped +
planned). Donor docs/slp-workshop/SPEC.md removed; README.md row and
MAP.md ## Specs note updated. No code change.
Self-contained stable reference spec crystallizing the SLP-Workshop
firmware: the MEMLCelium-based mode, the two adaptive-learning gestures
ported from upstream InterfaceRL (Jolt held weight-morph, OU output
walk) with exact constants, the runtime-not-compile-time + inert-by-
default design, the ModeBase integration incl. the GCC -Wstringop-
overflow workaround, control mappings, schema/codegen, and the
browser-parity caveat. Adds the spec to docs/specs/README.md and a
## Specs section to MAP.md per the specs-skill config format.
Refs commits 4e60d01, 57c9ede (merged at 527b8fc).
Spec-only (firmware fork is WIP, built by another agent). Captures: memlcelium
is a single shared-net hybrid (14 ratio-seq + 42 synth outputs); the two-stream
model (Continuous + Rhythm); firmware 3 compile-time modes + browser's 4th
split-net hybrid; gate-sequence config for CV & MIDI (counts + shared/separate
net toggle; XY-pad→2nd pad / gamepad→double-stick); CV jack allocation
(11 CV + 3 gate, swap CV→gate); RatioSeq gate generation; no wire-protocol change.
Restores the April-2026 "uSEQ-Celium" functionality (browser → uSEQ
hardware + CV expander over USB Web Serial) as a first-class Manifold
Outputs backend, and re-vendors the RP2040 firmware into the repo.
- protocol v2 (uSEQ-CV): firmware/useq-celium/shared/protocol.h is the
single source of truth, mirrored by manifold/src/backends/useq-protocol.ts.
26-byte OUTPUT frame, 11×u16 CV (12-bit) + 3-gate bitfield + XOR; fixed
topology; host-agnostic so the MEMLNaut RP2350 can emit identical bytes.
Spec in docs/useq-celium/protocol.md.
- firmware/useq-celium/{main,expander}: PlatformIO RP2040 firmware rewritten
to v2 from the real April pin maps (expander I2C addr 0x10).
- UseqCvBackend (id cvgate): Web Serial connect/identify/disconnect, 100 Hz
stream, per-channel dead-zone, gate thresholding; modeled on midi-backend.
Per-output CvSpec (channel + gateThreshold) on MFParam; config UI in
OutputsBackendConfig + BackendAdvanced; new "CV / uSEQ" top-dock mode.
- bun-test for the protocol frame layout; MAP.md updated.
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.
Source: archive/playground-redesign-2026-snapshot branch (commit 287e3a1).
Reference-only — playground is being rewritten in SolidJS, so the redesign's
implementation will not be merged, but its design intent is preserved here
for the rewrite team.
