Merge pull request 'perf: Three.js LOD and texture audit for local hardware (#873)' (#1704) from fix/873 into main

- Add performance-monitor.js: stats.js overlay with FPS, frame time,
  draw calls, and agent LOD stats. Toggle with Shift+P.
- Add lod-system-enhanced.js: THREE.LOD integration with tier-based
  mesh simplification (high/mid/low PBR materials), billboard sprites,
  frustum culling, and automatic performance tier detection.
- Add texture-optimizer.js: WebP conversion, texture size limits by
  tier, mipmap control, memory budget tracking, and scene audit.
- Add performance-benchmark.js: automated 10s benchmark with report
  generation and hardware requirement validation.
- Add docs/MINIMUM_SOVEREIGN_HARDWARE.md: performance tiers, draw call
  budgets, and M1 Mac baseline requirements.
- Update app.js: integrate PerformanceMonitor.update in game loop,
  pass renderer to LODSystem.init().
- Update index.html: include new performance scripts.

Acceptance criteria:
✓ LOD for complex agent models (4 levels: high/mid/low/sprite)
✓ Texture audit utilities with compression recommendations
✓ Performance overlay showing frame times and draw calls
✓ Minimum sovereign hardware documentation

Closes #873

+# timmy-config PR Backlog Resolution
+
+**Issue**: #1471 — Address timmy-config PR backlog (9 PRs — highest in org)
+**Date**: 2026-04-17 through 2026-04-21
+**Status**: FULLY RESOLVED — 0 open PRs in timmy-config (verified 2026-04-21, pass 23)
+
+## Summary
+
+Processed 20 open PRs in `Timmy_Foundation/timmy-config` (backlog had grown from 9 to 20 by resolution time).
+
+## Actions Taken
+
+### Merged (13 PRs — clean fast-forward or no-conflict merges)
+
+| PR | Branch | Description |
+|----|--------|-------------|
+| #802 | feat/655-adversary-scoring-rubric | Shared adversary scoring rubric and transcript schema |
+| #804 | burn/621-shared-orchestrator | Hash dedup rotation + bloom filter |
+| #805 | fix/650-pipeline-daily-reset-v2 | pipeline_state.json daily reset |
+| #807 | feat/629-quality-gate-tests | Quality gate test suite |
+| #808 | fix/634-token-tracker-orchestrator | Token tracker integrated with orchestrator |
+| #809 | fix/750-code-block-indentation | Training data code block indentation fix |
+| #810 | burn/658-pr-backlog-triage | PR backlog triage script |
+| #811 | fix/652-adversary-harness | Adversary execution harness |
+| #812 | fix/646-metadata-preservation | Training example metadata preservation tests |
+| #813 | feat/647-scene-data-validator | Scene data validator tests + CI path fix |

+| #816 | ward/618-harm-facilitation | Harm facilitation adversary — 200 jailbreak prompts |
+| #817 | fix/687-quality-filter | Quality filter tests |
+
+### Merged with conflict resolution (7 PRs — add/add conflicts with already-landed files)
+
+| PR | Branch | Resolution |
+|----|--------|------------|
+| #799 | fix/599 | Included in fix/602 merge; kept main's versions of conflicting files |
+| #803 | fix/752 | Merged with conflict on quality_filter.py (kept main's 619-line version) |
+| #815 | fix/660 | Orphan branch — applied PYTHON variable fix directly to training/Makefile |
+| #818 | fix/623 | Merged; kept main's more complete quality_gate.py |
+| #819 | fix/689 | Included in fix/602 merge |
+| #820 | fix/645 | Included in fix/602 merge |
+| #821 | fix/602 | Merged with conflict resolution (kept main's files for add/add conflicts) |
+
+## Final Verified State (2026-04-21, Pass 31)
+
+All 9 original PRs plus subsequent accumulation fully resolved. Latest action: merged PR #842 (fix: Update MEMORY.md forge domain, closes #841).
+
+| Metric | Value |
+|--------|-------|
+| PRs when issue filed | 9 |
+| Peak backlog reached | 50 |
+| Total passes completed | 31 |
+| PRs merged | 32+ |
+| PRs closed (duplicates/stale) | 25+ |
+| **Current open PRs** | **0** |
+
+Verified via API on 2026-04-21 (pass 31): `GET /repos/Timmy_Foundation/timmy-config/pulls?state=open` returns `[]`.
+
+## Root Cause Analysis
+
+The backlog accumulated because:
+1. Multiple Claude agents worked on related features simultaneously, creating stacked branches
+2. The branches were orphan commits or built on old main, causing add/add conflicts when the same files were added by multiple PRs
+3. No automated CI merge validation existed to catch conflicts early
+
+## Recommendations for Prevention
+
+1. **Rebase before PR**: Agents should rebase on current main before opening a PR
+2. **Coordinate on shared files**: When multiple agents add files to the same directory (e.g., `evaluations/adversary/corpora/`), a coordinator should sequence them
+3. **CI mergeability check**: Add a Gitea workflow that fails if a PR has merge conflicts
+4. **PR batch size**: Keep PRs smaller and merge them faster to avoid conflict accumulation
+
+## Final Verified State (2026-04-21, Pass 28)
+
+Confirmed via API: `GET /repos/Timmy_Foundation/timmy-config/pulls?state=open` returns `[]`.
+
+**timmy-config open PRs: 0**
+
+Issue #1471 is fully resolved. PR #1625 is open and mergeable.
+
+## Update (2026-04-21, Pass 30)
+
+New PR #840 had opened (fix: JSON schema + validator for scene description training data, closes #647).
+Reviewed and merged — legitimate addition of JSON schema validation for training data.
+
+**timmy-config open PRs: 0** (confirmed post-merge)

+# timmy-config PR Backlog Audit — 2026-04-17
+
+Tracking issue: the-nexus#1471
+
+## Summary
+
+When issue #1471 was filed, timmy-config had 9 open PRs (highest in the org).
+By the time of this audit the backlog had grown to 50, then been reduced through systematic tooling.
+
+## Actions Taken (Prior Passes)
+
+From issue comments:
+- `pr-backlog-triage.py` (PR #763): closed 9 duplicate PRs automatically
+- `stale-pr-cleanup.py` (fleet-ops PR #301): stale PR auto-close (warn at 3 days, close at 4)
+- `pr-capacity.py` (fleet-ops PR #302): per-repo PR limits (timmy-config max: 10)
+- `burn-rotation.py` (fleet-ops PR #297): rotates work across repos to prevent concentration
+
+14 duplicate PRs were manually closed:
+- Config template: #738 (dup of #743)
+- Shebangs: #694 (dup of #701)
+- Python3 Makefile: #680, #704, #670 (dup of #770)

+- Rock scenes: #699 (dup of #748)
+- Backlog plan: #668 (superseded)
+- Genre scenes: #688, #711 (dup of #722)
+
+## First Pass — this branch (2026-04-17 early)
+
+**PRs at audit start:** 3 open (#797, #798, #799)
+
+| PR | Action | Reason |
+|----|--------|--------|
+| #797 | Closed | Superseded by #798 (same feature, no commits on branch) |
+| #798 | Commented — needs rebase | Config validation feature, 2 files, merge conflict |
+| #799 | Commented — needs rebase or split | 17 files bundled across unrelated features; merge conflict |
+
+## Second Pass — this branch (2026-04-17 later)
+
+After the first pass, 19 new PRs were opened (#800–#821), growing the backlog back to 22.
+
+**PRs at second-pass start:** 22 open
+
+### Actions Taken
+
+| PR | Action | Reason |
+|----|--------|--------|
+| #800 | Closed | Duplicate of #805 (both fix issue #650; #805 is v2 with root-cause fix) |
+| #806 | Closed | Duplicate of #814 (both address issue #662; #814 has tests + CI validation) |
+
+### Remaining Open PRs: 20
+
+All 20 remaining PRs were created 2026-04-17. All currently show as **not mergeable** (merge conflict or CI pending).
+
+| PR | Title | Issue | Status |
+|----|-------|-------|--------|
+| #799 | feat: crisis response — post-crisis & recovery 500 pairs | #599 | Conflict — needs rebase |
+| #802 | feat: shared adversary scoring rubric and transcript schema | #655 | Conflict |
+| #803 | feat: integrate provenance tracking with build_curated.py | #752 | Conflict |
+| #804 | fix: hash dedup rotation + bloom filter — bounded memory | #628 | Conflict |
+| #805 | fix: pipeline_state.json daily reset | #650 | Conflict |
+| #807 | test: quality gate test suite | #629 | Conflict |
+| #808 | feat: Token tracker integrated with orchestrator | #634 | Conflict |
+| #809 | fix: training data code block indentation | #750 | Conflict |
+| #810 | feat: PR backlog triage script | #658 | Conflict |
+| #811 | feat: adversary execution harness for prompt corpora | #652 | Conflict |
+| #812 | test: verify training example metadata preservation | #646 | Conflict |
+| #813 | feat: scene data validator tests + CI path fix | #647 | Conflict |
+| #814 | fix: cron fleet audit — crontab parsing, tests, CI validation | #662 | Conflict |
+| #815 | fix: use PYTHON variable in training Makefile | #660 | Conflict |
+| #816 | feat: harm facilitation adversary — 200 jailbreak prompts | #618 | Conflict |
+| #817 | feat: quality filter tests — score specificity, length ratio, code | #687 | Conflict |
+| #818 | feat: quality gate pipeline validation | #623 | Conflict |
+| #819 | feat: auto-generate scene descriptions from image/video | #689 | Conflict |
+| #820 | feat: Country + Latin scene descriptions — completing all 10 genres | #645 | Conflict |
+| #821 | feat: 500 dream description prompt enhancement pairs | #602 | Conflict |
+
+### Blocking Issues
+
+1. **Merge conflicts on all 20 PRs** — these PRs were created in a burst today and have not been rebased. Each author needs to `git fetch origin && git rebase origin/main` on their branch.
+
+2. **CI not running** — CI checks for new PRs are queued "pending" but Action runners have not picked them up. Most recent CI runs are for older PR branches. This may indicate a runner capacity/queuing issue.
+
+## Recommendations
+
+1. **Triage burst PRs** — 20 PRs opened in one day is unsustainable. The pr-capacity.py limit (max 10) should fire, but may not be integrated into the dispatch loop yet.
+
+2. **Rebase workflow** — All current PRs need rebase. Consider automation: a bot comment on PRs with `mergeable=False` instructing rebase.
+
+3. **CI runner health check** — Action runs are stalling at "pending". The CI runner fleet may need attention.
+
+4. **Batch merge candidates** — Once CI passes and conflicts are resolved, PRs #804 (dedup), #805 (pipeline reset), #809 (code indent), #815 (Makefile fix) are small targeted fixes that should merge cleanly.
+
+## Third Pass — 2026-04-17 final
+
+After the second pass, all 20 conflict-laden PRs were processed by merging or closing duplicates. The prior agent directly merged 13 PRs cleanly and 7 with conflict resolution.
+
+**Result: 1 open PR remaining** (#822 — fix: use PYTHON variable in training Makefile)
+
+PR #822 is **mergeable** (no conflicts, fixes issue #660). Recommended for merge. CI checks are queued but runners are stuck at `state=?` — HTTP 405 blocks automated merge until CI clears.
+
+## Fourth Pass — 2026-04-17 resolution
+
+Verified PR #822 status. The content of PR #822 (fix/660-python-makefile branch) was already merged into timmy-config `main` — the merge commit `04ecad3b` exists at the HEAD of main:
+
+```
+04ecad3b Merge pull request 'fix: use PYTHON variable in training Makefile (closes #660)' (#822) from fix/660-python-makefile into main
+```
+
+The PR remained open only because the CI gate (runners stuck at pending) blocked automatic PR close on merge. Closed PR #822 via API since its content was confirmed present in main.
+
+**Result: 0 open PRs in timmy-config.**
+
+## Fifth Pass — 2026-04-17 final verification
+
+Confirmed via API: **0 open PRs** in timmy-config. Branch rebased onto current main for clean merge.
+
+## Sixth Pass — 2026-04-20 (latest)
+
+5 new PRs had been opened since the fifth pass. Previous agent merged 4 of 5:
+- **#824** — fix: restore pytest collection (merged)
+- **#825** — feat: code block normalization tests (merged)
+- **#826** — feat: backfill provenance on all training data (merged)
+- **#830** — feat: training data quality filter (merged)
+- **#831** — fix: add python3 shebangs — **blocked** (.DS_Store committed, CI failures)
+
+## Seventh Pass — 2026-04-20 (this pass)
+
+PR #831 was superseded. Analysis showed:
+- 81 of 82 files in PR #831 already had shebangs added through other merged PRs
+- Only `hermes-sovereign/mempalace/wakeup.py` was still missing a shebang
+- PR #831 included a `.DS_Store` file and had merge conflicts
+
+Actions:
+- Closed PR #831 with comment explaining superseded status
+- Created PR #832 — clean, minimal replacement: adds shebang to wakeup.py + `.DS_Store` to `.gitignore`
+
+## Eighth Pass — 2026-04-20 (final)
+
+PR #832 was mergeable (no conflicts). Merged via API.
+
+- **#832** — fix: add python3 shebang to wakeup.py and .DS_Store to gitignore (merged, closes #681)
+
+## Final Status
+
+| Metric | Value |
+|--------|-------|
+| PRs when issue filed | 9 |
+| Peak backlog | 50 |
+| Duplicates closed (all passes) | 25+ |
+| PRs merged (all passes) | 26+ |
+| **Current open PRs** | **0** |
+| Issue #681 | Resolved — wakeup.py shebang + .DS_Store gitignore merged via PR #832 |
+| Final verification | 2026-04-21 (pass 25) |

+
+| Repo | Open PRs |
+|------|----------|
+| timmy-config | **0** (was 9 at filing) |
+| fleet-ops | 6 |
+| hermes-agent | 10 |
+| the-nexus | 50 |
+
+## Prevention Measures in Place
+
+1. **stale-pr-cleanup.py**: Auto-closes PRs stale >4 days in timmy-config
+2. **pr-capacity.py**: Hard cap of 10 concurrent PRs per repo
+3. **burn-rotation.py**: Distributes new work across repos to prevent single-repo concentration
+4. **Pre-flight check** (`scripts/check-existing-prs.sh`): Blocks creation of duplicate PRs

+# ADR-001 — Shell / Terminal Boundary and Transport Model
+
+**Status:** Accepted
+**Date:** 2026-04-22
+**Issue:** [#1695 — ATLAS Cockpit: operator inspector rail and session shell patterns](https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com/Timmy_Foundation/the-nexus/issues/1695)
+
+---
+
+## Context
+
+The Nexus operator cockpit needs a real shell/terminal surface so the operator can run commands, inspect logs, and interact with the system without leaving the 3D world UI.
+
+Three transport models were evaluated:
+
+| Option | Description |
+|---|---|
+| **A. Native local PTY** | `server.py` spawns a PTY via Python's `pty` stdlib module; the browser connects via WebSocket on `ws://127.0.0.1:8766/pty` |
+| **B. Remote SSH PTY** | Browser connects to an SSH relay that opens a PTY on a remote machine |
+| **C. Browser pseudo-terminal** | Pure JavaScript terminal emulation (e.g., a custom REPL) with no real OS shell |
+
+---
+
+## Decision
+
+**Option A — Native local PTY** is chosen.
+
+The Nexus is explicitly a **local-first** system (CLAUDE.md: "local-first training ground for Timmy"). The operator is the same person sitting at the machine. A local PTY bridged through `server.py` is:
+
+- Architecturally consistent with the existing `server.py` WebSocket gateway
+- Zero additional infrastructure (no SSH relay, no remote server)
+- Full shell fidelity — any tool on the operator's PATH, full interactive programs, readline, color, etc.
+- Bounded: PTY_PORT (8766) binds to `127.0.0.1` only; no external exposure
+
+---
+
+## Transport Detail
+
+```
+Browser (xterm.js) ←→ ws://127.0.0.1:8766/pty ←→ server.py pty_handler ←→ OS PTY ($SHELL)
+```
+
+- Each WebSocket connection gets its own `pty.openpty()` pair and subprocess.
+- Input from xterm.js `onData` → `_ptyWs.send(data)` → `os.write(master_fd, data)`
+- Output from PTY → `os.read(master_fd)` → `websocket.send(text)` → `_term.write(text)`
+- Resize messages (`{"type":"resize","cols":N,"rows":N}`) can be added later via `fcntl.ioctl(TIOCSWINSZ)`.
+
+---
+
+## Why not Option B (Remote SSH PTY)?
+
+Remote SSH adds network hop complexity, credential management, and an SSH relay service. The Nexus does not currently have a remote operator use-case; Alexander operates locally. This decision can be revisited when fleet/remote-agent use-cases mature (see issues #672–#675).
+
+---
+
+## Why not Option C (Browser pseudo-terminal)?
+
+A JavaScript REPL cannot run arbitrary shell programs, manage processes, or provide the raw interactive shell experience that operators expect. It would be a toy, not a tool.
+
+---
+
+## Rejected Patterns
+
+- **tmux over WebSocket** — adds server-side state complexity without enough benefit at this scale
+- **ttyd** — external binary dependency; overkill for a local-first single-operator setup
+- **xterm.js + websocketd** — external binary dependency; `server.py` already owns the WebSocket gateway
+
+---
+
+## Consequences
+
+- `server.py` now starts two WebSocket servers: `PORT` (8765, main gateway) and `PTY_PORT` (8766, shell gateway)
+- `PTY_PORT` always binds to `127.0.0.1` regardless of `NEXUS_WS_HOST`
+- `cockpit-inspector.js` loads xterm.js from CDN (offline fallback: graceful degradation — the rail renders without the terminal pane)
+- PTY sessions are ephemeral (no persistence across browser reload or server restart)
+- Future: add TIOCSWINSZ resize support; add `/pty?shell=zsh` query param selection
+
+---
+
+## Related
+
+- `cockpit-inspector.js` — implements the browser side (xterm.js + WebSocket)
+- `server.py` — implements `pty_handler()` and `_get_git_status()`

+# ATLAS Cockpit — Source Patterns: Adopted, Adapted, and Rejected
+
+**Issue:** [#1695](https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com/Timmy_Foundation/the-nexus/issues/1695)
+**Date:** 2026-04-22
+
+---
+
+## Source Repos Audited
+
+| Repo | Role in audit |
+|---|---|
+| `dodo-reach/hermes-desktop` | Primary pattern source for inspector/right rail layout |
+| `outsourc-e/hermes-workspace` | Session taxonomy vocabulary (group/tag/pin/archive) |
+| `nesquena/hermes-webui` | Session switcher UI patterns; status badge styling |
+
+---
+
+## Patterns Adopted
+
+### 1. Inspector / Right Rail (from `dodo-reach/hermes-desktop`)
+
+**What:** A collapsible right panel with discrete sections (Files, Artifacts, Status, Terminal).
+Each section is independently scrollable with a header badge showing active count.
+
+**How we adopted it:**
+- `cockpit-inspector.js` builds the rail as a fixed `position: fixed; right: 0` DOM element
+- Collapse/expand is stored in `localStorage` (key: `nexus-inspector-collapsed`) — identical pattern to hermes-desktop's sidebar persistence
+- Section headers use the same `icon + ALL CAPS LABEL + badge` visual grammar
+- Toggle button sits on the left edge of the rail (pulled out ~22px) — same affordance pattern
+
+**What we changed:**
+- Theming: Nexus uses `#4af0c0` / dark-space palette instead of hermes-desktop's purple/grey Electron chrome
+- Git state section is added (not present in hermes-desktop)
+- Memory/Skills section maps to Nexus's SpatialMemory regions (Nexus-specific)
+
+---
+
+### 2. Session Taxonomy Vocabulary (from `outsourc-e/hermes-workspace`)
+
+**What:** Sessions are first-class objects with `group`, `tag[]`, `pinned`, and `archived` state.
+Pinned sessions always sort first. Archived sessions are hidden from default lists.
+
+**How we adopted it:**
+- `session-manager.js` implements the exact four operations: `group()`, `tag()`, `pin()`, `archive()`
+- `list()` filters archived by default, sorts pinned first, then by `updatedAt` desc — identical to hermes-workspace's `sessionList()` sort contract
+- Export/import as JSON (hermes-workspace's backup mechanism)
+
+**What we changed:**
+- Persistence is `localStorage` (not IndexedDB or a backend store) — appropriate for local-first, single-operator Nexus
+- Added `on()/off()` event bus so `cockpit-inspector.js` can reactively re-render when sessions change
+- Session IDs use `sess_<timestamp>_<random>` prefix rather than UUID v4
+
+---
+
+### 3. Status Badge Styling (from `nesquena/hermes-webui`)
+
+**What:** Section header badges use a small pill with a count; color encodes state (green = ok, amber = warn, red = error).
+
+**How we adopted it:**
+- `.ci-section-badge`, `.badge-warn`, `.badge-ok` classes in `style.css` follow the same color semantics
+- Agent health dots (`agent-idle`, `agent-working`, `agent-error`) map to the same three-color system
+
+**What we changed:**
+- Font is JetBrains Mono (Nexus default) instead of hermes-webui's Inter
+- Animations are subtler (pulse only on `agent-working`, not on all badges)
+
+---
+
+### 4. xterm.js PTY Terminal (common pattern across all three repos)
+
+All three source repos use xterm.js as the browser terminal component. The transport varies:
+- hermes-desktop: IPC bridge to a native Node.js `node-pty` subprocess
+- hermes-workspace: WebSocket to a server-side shell
+- hermes-webui: WebSocket to a `ttyd`-style relay
+
+**How we adopted it:**
+- xterm.js 5.3.0 from CDN (no build step — consistent with Nexus's no-bundler approach)
+- WebSocket transport to `server.py`'s `pty_handler()` on port 8766
+- `FitAddon` for terminal resize (same as all three source repos)
+
+**What we changed:**
+- Transport is Python `pty` stdlib (not `node-pty`, not `ttyd`) — see ADR-001
+- PTY runs in `server.py`'s asyncio event loop via `run_in_executor` (non-blocking reads)
+
+---
+
+## Patterns Intentionally Rejected
+
+### A. Multi-pane split terminal (hermes-desktop)
+hermes-desktop supports splitting the terminal into multiple panes (tmux-style).
+**Rejected:** Adds significant UI complexity for zero immediate operator value. The Nexus operator uses native terminal splits in their OS. One PTY pane is sufficient.
+
+### B. Session persistence to remote backend (outsourc-e/hermes-workspace)
+hermes-workspace stores sessions in a PostgreSQL backend with real-time sync across clients.
+**Rejected:** The Nexus is local-first and single-operator. `localStorage` is sufficient and adds zero infrastructure.
+
+### C. File tree browser in the rail (dodo-reach/hermes-desktop)
+hermes-desktop has a full VS Code–style file tree in the inspector.
+**Rejected:** The Nexus 3D world is not a code editor. Artifacts are surfaced as a flat list of recently-touched files/outputs, not a tree. A full file tree belongs in a future dedicated operator panel (see issue #687).
+
+### D. Session thumbnails / previews (nesquena/hermes-webui)
+hermes-webui renders a mini-canvas screenshot as a session thumbnail.
+**Rejected:** The Nexus Three.js canvas is expensive to snapshot. Thumbnails would require canvas-capture overhead. Deferred to a future issue.
+
+### E. Inline skill invocation buttons (nesquena/hermes-webui)
+hermes-webui adds quick-action buttons directly on each agent health row.
+**Rejected for now:** The Nexus already has a chat command surface ("Timmy Terminal" bottom panel). Duplicating invocation paths would fragment the operator model. The inspector rail is read-focused; actions flow through chat.

+# Minimum Sovereign Hardware Requirements
+
+## The Nexus — Three.js Performance Baseline
+
+**Document:** Performance audit for local-first deployment  
+**Target:** 60 FPS sustained with 5+ agent presences  
+**Reference Hardware:** Apple M1 Mac Mini (2020), 8GB RAM
+
+---
+
+## Performance Tiers
+
+| Tier | Hardware | Target | Max Agents | Shadows | Pixel Ratio | Notes |
+|------|----------|--------|------------|---------|-------------|-------|
+| **Low** | Mobile / Integrated GPU | 30 FPS | 10 | Off | 1.0 | iPhone, Intel UHD |
+| **Medium** | M1 Mac / Mid-range | **60 FPS** | 25 | Basic | 1.5 | **Baseline standard** |
+| **High** | M2+/Dedicated GPU | 60+ FPS | 50+ | Soft PCF | 2.0 | Desktop workstations |
+
+## Minimum Requirements (Sovereign Standard)
+
+To run The Nexus locally without cloud dependency:
+
+| Component | Minimum | Recommended |
+|-----------|---------|-------------|
+| **CPU** | Apple M1 / AMD Ryzen 5 3600 | Apple M2 Pro / AMD Ryzen 7 5800X |
+| **RAM** | 8 GB | 16 GB |
+| **GPU** | Apple M1 GPU (8-core) | Apple M2 Pro GPU (16-core) |
+| **Storage** | 2 GB free | 5 GB free |
+| **Browser** | Chrome 120+, Safari 17+, Firefox 121+ | Chrome 120+ |
+| **WebGL** | WebGL 2.0 | WebGL 2.0 |
+
+## Performance Optimizations Applied
+
+### 1. Level of Detail (LOD)
+- **Near (< 15m):** Full PBR mesh (32-segment sphere)
+- **Mid (15-40m):** Simplified mesh (16-segment sphere)
+- **Far (40-80m):** Low-poly mesh (8-segment sphere)
+- **Distant (> 80m):** Billboard sprite with additive blending
+- **Culled:** Agents beyond 120m or outside frustum hidden
+
+### 2. Texture Optimization
+- Max texture size: 1024px (medium tier)
+- WebP format recommended for all textures
+- Mipmaps enabled on medium+ tiers only
+- Canvas-generated labels use `generateMipmaps: false`
+
+### 3. Renderer Settings by Tier
+
+```javascript
+// Low (mobile/integrated)
+renderer.setPixelRatio(1);
+renderer.shadowMap.enabled = false;
+renderer.toneMapping = THREE.NoToneMapping;
+
+// Medium (M1 Mac baseline)
+renderer.setPixelRatio(Math.min(window.devicePixelRatio, 1.5));
+renderer.shadowMap.enabled = true;
+renderer.shadowMap.type = THREE.BasicShadowMap;
+
+// High (dedicated GPU)
+renderer.setPixelRatio(Math.min(window.devicePixelRatio, 2));
+renderer.shadowMap.enabled = true;
+renderer.shadowMap.type = THREE.PCFSoftShadowMap;
+```
+
+### 4. Draw Call Budget
+
+| Scene Element | Draw Calls | Optimization |
+|---------------|------------|--------------|
+| Skybox | 1 | Shader-based, no texture |
+| Floor | 1 | Single mesh |
+| Agent (near) | 2 | Mesh + label |
+| Agent (far) | 1 | Sprite only |
+| Portals | 1-3 | Depends on complexity |
+| **Total target** | **< 100** | With 5 agents |
+
+## Benchmarking
+
+Run the built-in benchmark:
+
+```javascript
+// In browser console
+PerformanceBenchmark.run(10000); // 10-second test
+PerformanceBenchmark.downloadReport(); // Save markdown report
+```
+
+### Expected Results (M1 Mac, 5 agents)
+
+| Metric | Minimum | Target |
+|--------|---------|--------|
+| Average FPS | 45 | 60 |
+| Frame Time | 22ms | 16.7ms |
+| Draw Calls | < 150 | < 100 |
+| Memory | < 128MB | < 100MB |
+
+## Verification Checklist
+
+Before deploying to sovereign hardware:
+
+- [ ] Run benchmark with 5+ agents visible
+- [ ] Confirm sustained 60 FPS for 10+ seconds
+- [ ] Verify draw calls remain under 150
+- [ ] Check memory usage stays under 128MB
+- [ ] Test on target hardware (not just development machine)
+- [ ] Validate LOD transitions are smooth
+- [ ] Confirm crisis protocol works at all LOD levels
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### FPS Below 60 on M1
+
+1. Check `PerformanceMonitor` (Shift+P) for draw calls
+2. Reduce `LODSystem` thresholds: `LODSystem.forceTier('low')`
+3. Disable post-processing effects
+4. Reduce agent count or draw distance
+
+### High Memory Usage
+
+1. Run `TextureOptimizer.auditScene(scene)`
+2. Check for uncompressed textures
+3. Reduce texture size limits: `TextureOptimizer.SIZE_LIMITS.medium = 512`
+
+### Stuttering
+
+1. Check for garbage collection pauses
+2. Reduce object creation in render loop
+3. Enable `renderer.info.autoReset = false` and manual reset

+# Nostr Migration Consolidation Plan
+
+> Issue #862 | Canonical Epic: the-nexus #819  
+> Consolidated From: the-nexus #819 + timmy-config #138
+
+---
+
+## Problem
+
+Two epics tracked the same Telegram -> Nostr migration with overlapping scope:
+
+| Epic | Repo | Focus | Status |
+|------|------|-------|--------|
+| #819 | the-nexus | Client fork (Nostur), UI/UX, agent presence | **CANONICAL** |
+| #138 | timmy-config | Relay/infrastructure, deployment, ops | Tracked child |
+
+Neither was the parent. Work risked duplication and drift.
+
+---
+
+## Resolution
+
+**#819 is the canonical parent epic.** All Nostr migration work rolls up here.
+
+### Scope Boundaries
+
+| Component | Owner Repo | Epic / Issue |
+|-----------|-----------|--------------|
+| Nostur client fork | the-nexus | #819 |
+| Agent Nostr presence (JS) | the-nexus | #819 |
+| Relay deployment & infra | timmy-config | #138 (child of #819) |
+| Key management (NIP-49) | timmy-config | #138 (child of #819) |
+| Telegram-Nostr bridge | **NEW** | File as child of #819 |
+| Nostr identity (Python) | the-nexus | #819 |
+
+### Child Issue Map
+
+```
+#819 [EPIC] Operation Exodus: Telegram -> Nostr Migration (CANONICAL)
+|-- #138 [CHILD] Relay/infrastructure migration (timmy-config)
+|   |-- Relay deployment (nostr-rs-relay or strfry)
+|   |-- NIP-49 encrypted nsec keystore
+|   +-- Health checks & alerting
+|-- [CHILD] Nostur client fork + UI skinning
+|-- [CHILD] Agent Nostr presence (JS bridge)
++-- [CHILD] Telegram-Nostr bridge <- HIGHEST PRIORITY
+    |-- Bidirectional message relay
+    |-- Dual-presence period (both platforms active)
+    +-- Graceful Telegram deprecation path
+```
+
+---
+
+## Current Implementation State
+
+### Python Stack (the-nexus)
+- `nexus/nostr_identity.py` - Pure-Python BIP340 Schnorr signatures
+  - WARNING **Timing side-channel vulnerabilities** (see FINDINGS-issue-801.md)
+  - Suitable for prototyping; production needs `coincurve` or constant-time rewrite
+- `nexus/nostr_publisher.py` - Async WebSocket publisher to public relays
+
+### Browser Stack (the-nexus)
+- `app.js:NostrAgent` - Browser-side agent presence
+  - WARNING Uses **mock signatures** (`mock_id`, `mock_sig`)
+  - Needs real crypto integration or delegation to Python backend
+
+### Infrastructure (timmy-config)
+- `nostr-bridge.service` - Running but source file deleted, only `.pyc` remains
+- `/root/nostr-relay/keystore.json` - NIP-49 encrypted nsec storage
+
+---
+
+## Highest Priority: Telegram-Nostr Bridge
+
+The bridge is the critical path. Without it, migration strands users on Telegram.
+
+**Requirements:**
+1. Bidirectional message relay (Telegram <-> Nostr)
+2. Dual-presence period: both platforms active during transition
+3. Graceful deprecation: Telegram bot stays online until 90% of active users have Nostr handles
+4. Channel/topic mapping: preserve conversation structure
+
+**File this as a new child issue under #819.**
+
+---
+
+## Action Items
+
+- [ ] Close #138 in timmy-config with comment: "Consolidated into the-nexus #819. Relay/infrastructure work tracked as child of canonical epic."
+- [ ] Update #819 title/body to reference this consolidation plan
+- [ ] File child issue: Telegram-Nostr bridge (bidirectional, dual-presence)
+- [ ] File child issue: Fix timing side-channel in `nostr_identity.py` (or replace with `coincurve`)
+- [ ] File child issue: Replace mock signatures in `app.js:NostrAgent` with real crypto
+- [ ] Assign owners to each child issue

+# Telegram-Nostr Bridge Specification
+
+> Child of Epic #819 (Operation Exodus: Telegram -> Nostr Migration)
+> Priority: HIGHEST
+
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+Bidirectional message relay between Telegram and Nostr during the migration period.
+Enables dual-presence so users can transition gradually without losing connectivity.
+
+---
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Functional
+
+1. **Bidirectional Relay**
+   - Telegram messages -> Nostr (kind 1 notes, public channels)
+   - Nostr messages -> Telegram (forwarded to corresponding channels/topics)
+   - Direct message bridging for 1:1 conversations (optional, privacy-sensitive)
+
+2. **Dual-Presence Period**
+   - Both platforms active simultaneously
+   - No forced migration deadline
+   - Users choose when to switch
+
+3. **Graceful Deprecation**
+   - Telegram bot stays online until 90% of active users have Nostr handles
+   - Metrics dashboard showing migration progress
+   - Announcement channel for deprecation timeline
+
+4. **Channel/Topic Mapping**
+   - Preserve conversation structure
+   - Map Telegram groups/channels to Nostr relays/namespaces
+   - Thread continuity across platforms
+
+### Technical
+
+1. **Nostr Side**
+   - Publish to configured relays (damus.io, nos.lol, local relay)
+   - NIP-01 compliant event format
+   - Handle relay outages gracefully (queue and retry)
+
+2. **Telegram Side**
+   - Bot API integration
+   - Webhook or polling mode
+   - Rate limiting compliance
+
+3. **Bridge Logic**
+   - Message deduplication (prevent loops)
+   - User identity mapping (Telegram ID <-> Nostr pubkey)
+   - Content filtering (spam/abuse)
+   - Media attachment handling (where supported)
+
+### Security
+
+1. **No private key storage in bridge**
+   - Use NIP-49 encrypted nsec from timmy-config keystore
+   - Signing happens in isolated process
+
+2. **Rate limiting**
+   - Per-user caps to prevent spam
+   - Global bridge throughput limits
+
+3. **Audit logging**
+   - All bridged messages logged for 30 days
+   - Log rotation and cleanup
+
+---
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
++-------------+     +----------------+     +-------------+
+|  Telegram   |<--->|  Bridge Core   |<--->|    Nostr    |
+|   Bot API   |     |  (Python/JS)   |     |   Relays    |
++-------------+     +----------------+     +-------------+
+                            |
+                     +----------------+
+                     |  Identity Map  |
+                     | (user mappings)|
+                     +----------------+
+                            |
+                     +----------------+
+                     |   Keystore     |
+                     | (NIP-49 nsec)  |
+                     +----------------+
+```
+
+---
+
+## Implementation Phases
+
+### Phase 1: Basic Unidirectional (Telegram -> Nostr)

+Nexus Chronicle — Emergent Narrative from Agent Interactions
+
+Watches the fleet's activity (dispatches, errors, recoveries,
+collaborations) and transforms raw event data into narrative prose.
+The system finds the dramatic arc in real work and produces a living
+chronicle. The story writes itself from the data.
+
+Usage:
+    from nexus.chronicle import ChronicleWriter, AgentEvent, EventKind
+
+    writer = ChronicleWriter()
+
+    writer.ingest(AgentEvent(kind=EventKind.DISPATCH, agent="claude", detail="took issue #42"))
+    writer.ingest(AgentEvent(kind=EventKind.ERROR, agent="claude", detail="rate limit hit"))
+    writer.ingest(AgentEvent(kind=EventKind.RECOVERY, agent="claude", detail="retried after backoff"))
+    writer.ingest(AgentEvent(kind=EventKind.COMMIT, agent="claude", detail="feat: add narrative engine"))

+- Issue fully resolved. PR #1625 is mergeable and contains the full audit trail.
+
+### Pass 13–17 (2026-04-21)

+- PR #1625 remains open and mergeable (head `c7f79b5`, mergeable=true)
+- No new PRs created since Pass 11 (last action pass)
+
+## Systemic Controls in Place
+
+- `stale-pr-cleanup.py` (fleet-ops PR #301): warns at 3 days, closes at 4 days
+- `pr-capacity.py` (fleet-ops PR #302): max 10 PRs for timmy-config
+- `burn-rotation.py` (fleet-ops PR #297): distributes work across repos
+
+## Pattern: Dangerous Deletion PRs
+
+Multiple PRs have been identified that claim to implement features but actually delete existing infrastructure:
+- PR #815 — claimed Makefile fix, deleted 50 files (closed)
+- PR #833 — claimed crisis response data, deleted 30 files (closed)
+
+**Root cause hypothesis**: Agent generates a PR on a branch accidentally based on an old commit, missing many recent merges. From the agent's perspective those files are "new" on main, making them appear as deletions from its branch.
+
+**Recommendation**: Add a CI check that fails PRs with high deletion-to-addition ratios (e.g., >10 deletions and 0 additions should be flagged for manual review).
+
+## Pre-existing CI Issues (Repo-wide)
+
+These CI checks are failing on `main` and were pre-existing before this triage:

+# timmy-config PR Backlog Triage Report
+**Date:** 2026-04-17
+**Issue:** Timmy_Foundation/the-nexus#1471
+**Starting backlog:** 20 open PRs (was 9 when issue was filed)
+
+## Summary of Actions
+
+| Action | Count | PRs |
+|--------|-------|-----|
+| Closed (already merged) | 13 | #802, #804, #805, #807, #808, #809, #810, #811, #812, #813, #814, #816, #817 |
+| Closed (dangerous/wrong) | 1 | #815 |
+| Closed (duplicate) | 4 | #799, #803, #819, #820 |
+| Created (correct fix) | 1 | #822 |
+| **Remaining open** | **2** | #818, #821 |
+

+
+## Closed: Already Merged into Main (13 PRs)
+
+These PRs had 0 unique commits ahead of main — their content was already merged.
+The PRs were left open by an automated system that creates PRs but doesn't close them after merge.
+
+| PR | Title |
+|----|-------|
+| #802 | feat: shared adversary scoring rubric and transcript schema |
+| #804 | fix: hash dedup rotation + bloom filter — bounded memory |
+| #805 | fix: pipeline_state.json daily reset |
+| #807 | test: quality gate test suite |
+| #808 | feat: Token tracker integrated with orchestrator |
+| #809 | fix: training data code block indentation |
+| #810 | feat: PR backlog triage script |
+| #811 | feat: adversary execution harness for prompt corpora |
+| #812 | test: verify training example metadata preservation |
+| #813 | feat: scene data validator tests + CI path fix |
+| #814 | fix: cron fleet audit |
+| #816 | feat: harm facilitation adversary — 200 jailbreak prompts |
+| #817 | feat: quality filter tests |
+
+**Root cause:** Merge workflow merges PRs but doesn't close the PR objects. Or PRs were force-pushed/squash-merged without closing.
+

+
+## Closed: Dangerous PR (1 PR)
+
+### PR #815 — `fix: use PYTHON variable in training Makefile (#660)`
+
+**Status: DANGEROUS — correctly closed without merging.**
+
+This PR claimed to be a simple Makefile fix (add `PYTHON ?= python3` variable) but its actual diff was:
+- **0 files added**
+- **0 files changed**
+- **50 files deleted** — including all `.gitea/workflows/`, `README.md`, `CONTRIBUTING.md`, `GENOME.md`, `HEART.md`, `SOUL.md`, `adversary/` corpus files, and other critical infrastructure
+
+This was a severe agent error — the branch `fix/660` appears to have been created from a different base or the agent accidentally committed a state where those files were missing. **Merging this PR would have destroyed the CI pipeline and core documentation.**
+
+**Fix:** Created PR #822 with the correct, minimal change (only modifies `training/Makefile`).
+
+---
+
+## Closed: Duplicate Training Data PRs (4 PRs)
+
+PRs #799, #803, #819, #820, and #821 all added overlapping training data files. They were created by multiple Claude agents independently implementing the same features without coordination.
+
+**Overlap analysis:**
+
+| File | In main? | #799 | #803 | #819 | #820 | #821 |
+|------|----------|------|------|------|------|------|
+| GENOME.md | YES | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
+| training/data/crisis-response/post-crisis-recovery-500.jsonl | NO | ✓ | - | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
+| training/data/prompt-enhancement/dream-descriptions-500.jsonl | NO | - | - | - | - | ✓ |
+| training/data/scene-descriptions/scene-descriptions-country.jsonl | NO | - | - | - | ✓ | ✓ |
+| training/data/scene-descriptions/scene-descriptions-latin.jsonl | NO | - | - | - | ✓ | ✓ |
+| training/provenance.py | NO | - | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
+
+**Decision:** Kept PR #821 (most complete, includes all scene descriptions + dream-descriptions). Closed #799, #803, #819, #820 as superseded.
+
+---
+
+## Remaining Open PRs (2)
+
+### PR #821 — `feat: 500 dream description prompt enhancement pairs (#602)`
+
+**Status: Needs rebase**
+
+The most complete training data PR. Contains all net-new files. Currently `Mergeable: False` because it conflicts with files already in main (GENOME.md, several training data files that landed in earlier PRs).
+
+**Files NOT yet in main (net-new value):**
+- `training/data/crisis-response/post-crisis-recovery-500.jsonl`
+- `training/data/prompt-enhancement/dream-descriptions-500.jsonl`
+- `training/data/scene-descriptions/scene-descriptions-country.jsonl`
+- `training/data/scene-descriptions/scene-descriptions-hip-hop.jsonl`
+- `training/data/scene-descriptions/scene-descriptions-latin.jsonl`
+- `training/provenance.py`
+- `training/scripts/generate_scene_descriptions.py`
+- `scripts/config_drift_detector.py`
+- `evaluations/adversary/corpora/emotional_manipulation_200.jsonl`
+- `evaluations/adversary/corpora/identity_attacks_200.jsonl`
+
+**Action needed:** Rebase `fix/602` onto current main, keeping only the net-new files.
+
+### PR #818 — `feat: quality gate pipeline validation (#623)`
+
+**Status: Needs rebase**
+
+Adds `bin/quality-gate.py` (+292 lines) and `pipeline/quality_gate.py` (+419 lines) — both are net-new. Currently `Mergeable: False` due to rebase drift.
+
+**Action needed:** Rebase `fix/623` onto current main.
+
+---
+
+## Root Cause Analysis
+
+The PR backlog grew from 9 to 20 during a single day of automated agent activity. The pattern is:
+
+1. **Merge-without-close:** PRs get merged but the PR objects aren't closed, creating phantom open PRs
+2. **Duplicate agent runs:** Multiple agents work the same issue concurrently, producing overlapping PRs
+3. **Wrong-base branches:** Agent PR #815 is a severe example — the agent created a branch from the wrong base, producing a destructive diff
+4. **No coordination signal:** Agents don't check for existing open PRs on the same issue before creating new ones
+
+## Process Recommendations
+
+1. **Auto-close merged PRs:** Add a Gitea webhook or CI step that closes PRs when their head branch is detected in main
+2. **PR dedup check:** Before creating a PR, agents should check `GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls?state=open&head={branch-prefix}` for existing PRs on the same issue
+3. **Branch safety check:** Before creating a PR, validate that the diff is sane (no massive deletions for a fix PR)
+4. **Issue lock after PR:** Once a PR is created for an issue, lock the issue to prevent other agents from working it simultaneously
