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).

Platform-agnostic neutral-pin mechanism (set_input_pinned/pin_value) on
ModeBase, lifted from ebb953a. Consumed by the firmware Joystick Dual/Single
settings menu; the browser fixed-MLP<4> half of ebb953a is superseded by main's
MLP<32> N-D input work and intentionally dropped.
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.
CMakeLists.txt:
- Native host build by default; Emscripten-target detection plumbed but
WASM emit deferred to stream 7 (playground build script).
- Header-only INTERFACE library `nisps_core`.
- Host test executable `nisps_core_tests` compiled with -Wall -Wextra
-Werror -Wpedantic (Chris's rules: clean build is non-negotiable).
tests/cpp/test_helpers.hpp:
- Minimal NISPS_TEST / NISPS_EXPECT / NISPS_EXPECT_NEAR macros, no external
deps. Rationale documented in-file: Catch2/doctest would add ~10MB and 30s
for what is currently <100 LOC of test runtime.
22 unit tests covering FixedBuffer (5), RingBuffer (5), Rng (7), math (5).
All green; verified via `cmake --build nisps/build && ./nisps/build/nisps_core_tests`.
