Phase 1 group 2 (L27, L26, L28, S21, L13, ST6, S20).
- L27: fixed_buffer.hpp + its test + the CMake entry — no consumers.
- L26: dislike_multiplier_ and its doubling/halving bookkeeping — upstream
InterfaceRL residue that drove nothing. The audit pointed at the wrong test
file for the surviving reference; the actual assert was in
test_mlp_geo_dislike.cpp:211, removed here.
- L28: added copy_weights_to(std::span<float>) to FixedStorage and
DynamicStorage and switched feedback.hpp's take_snapshot/push_undo/nudge to
it. Drops the permanent whole-net flat_ scratch buffer from FixedStorage and
the per-gesture double copy. Behaviour-identical: same source values, same
write order, same RNG draw order in nudge().
- S21 + L13: deleted NISPS_AUDIO_MEM / NISPS_APP_SRAM / NISPS_AUDIO_FUNC —
zero use sites outside perf.hpp and comments — and rewrote midi_io.hpp's one
misshapen NISPS_AUDIO_FUNC use as a plain `inline void`. perf.hpp now
documents only the inlining/hotness macros that actually exist, and
audio_driver.hpp no longer claims an SRAM discipline the code never had.
- ST6: feedback.hpp's header now describes the four current modes and the
Geometric default, dropping the retracted "geometric push NOT ported" claim.
S20 — OPERATOR DECISION (§7.1): the four legacy feedback behaviours
(RandomiseOutputs, RandomiseMlp, AvoidStyle::Diffuse, the RandomiseMlp branch of
on_drag) are KEPT, not deleted. They are wanted as building blocks for
experimenting with how different instruments feel under different behaviours.
Each is now marked at its definition as deliberately-retained research reserve
so future audits stop flagging it as dead code.
L25 (the 16 KB firmware loss-history buffer) is NOT done here — see the phase
report; it turned out to be coupled into the shared mlp.hpp, and its fate
belongs with the browser telemetry build (§7.3 / plan §6.5e).
Gates: run-all-tests.sh ALL GREEN.
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).
Add a "grab → move → drop" gesture that moves an existing positive
example's output to a new input position, preserving the output. This is
the new core's home for upstream InterfaceRL's drag-store/reposition-commit,
distinct from Explore→Place (which places newly-auditioned scratchpad sounds).
- nisps/ml/feedback.hpp: begin_reposition()/commit_reposition()/repositioning().
Reuses the Placing state (static_output holds the carried vector) but a
reposition_ flag makes commit AND the mode-switch teardown SKIP the weight
restore — the real net is never set aside here, so restoring snapshot_ would
clobber the live trained net. Guards cancel_place + abort_explore_place.
- firmware glue: state-gate Toggle B. Exploring → reroll/nudge (unchanged);
Idle → MomB1 grab, MomB2 drop (commit + add_example + train). The 4D variant
has no joystick button, so the gesture lives on the momentary toggle. Also
fix a stale top-of-file control-map comment that contradicted the bindings.
- tests: 4 reposition cases (hold without snapshot; commit stores carried
output with no restore; mode-switch aborts without clobber; begin-only-Idle).
- MAP.md: document the full ExploreAndPlace lifecycle + reposition wiring.
Audio-hold (carrying the sound audibly during the move) remains the existing
unwired static_output() TODO and affects Explore→Place identically.
Firmware compile unverified (no arduino-cli); host tests + lint pass.
New SLP-Workshop firmware variant (Synth Library Portland), built on the
MEMLCelium engine + MLP shape. Ports the two post-fork learning-algorithm
changes from upstream memllib InterfaceRL into the shared nisps/ml core,
runtime-configurable (no compile-time switch), inert by default:
- nisps/ml/jolt.hpp: Jolt — held continuous weight morph over the flat
weight buffer + post-release LR ramp (kJolt* constants verbatim).
- nisps/ml/ou_noise.hpp: OUNoise<N> — Ornstein-Uhlenbeck exploration walk
on the output vector (theta=0.02, dt=0.001, kMaxAmplitude=0.65).
Both wired into ModeBase so every mode gains jolt_press/jolt_release/
jolt_lr_scale + set_explore_intensity; gated so existing modes stay
bit-identical (parity + golden tests green). Firmware surfaces them on
TogB1 (Jolt) and RVX1 (explore). New SLPWorkshopMode mode + schema +
codegen; firmware alias + .ino variant; playground mode registration.
Tests: jolt + OU unit tests, ModeBase learning integration incl. an
inert-parity test proving SLP-Workshop == MEMLCelium with features off.
Verified: cpp tests, wasm build, native↔wasm parity, lint, codegen
golden, playground typecheck. Firmware compile/e2e/hardware are
environment-bound (no arduino-cli/submodules/browser here).
