Summary

replaces the hardcoded GOFAI perception payload with a live state projection from the actual Nexus scene/runtime
derives energy from the animated power meter, portal pressure from the real portal registry/proximity state, and stability from live connectivity + operator load signals
keeps the change inside the repo's hard 10-line net-addition rule

Why this is better

before this PR, GOFAI always perceived the same fake payload: { stability: 0.3, energy: 80, activePortals: 1 }
that meant the symbolic layer was structurally wired but epistemically fake
after this PR, the symbolic layer reacts to live scene/runtime signals that already exist in the Nexus:
- powerMeterBars
- wsConnected
- agents
- portals
- activePortal
- portalOverlayActive

Verification

node --check app.js
python3 scripts/repo_truth_guard.py
synthetic verification script proved:
- derived energy stays normalized in [0, 100]
- calm runtime conditions yield higher stability than stressed conditions
- active portal proximity is surfaced as activePortals: 1
diff budget check: additions=8, deletions=2, net=6

Summary - replaces the hardcoded GOFAI perception payload with a live state projection from the actual Nexus scene/runtime - derives energy from the animated power meter, portal pressure from the real portal registry/proximity state, and stability from live connectivity + operator load signals - keeps the change inside the repo's hard 10-line net-addition rule Why this is better - before this PR, GOFAI always perceived the same fake payload: `{ stability: 0.3, energy: 80, activePortals: 1 }` - that meant the symbolic layer was structurally wired but epistemically fake - after this PR, the symbolic layer reacts to live scene/runtime signals that already exist in the Nexus: - `powerMeterBars` - `wsConnected` - `agents` - `portals` - `activePortal` - `portalOverlayActive` Verification - node --check app.js - python3 scripts/repo_truth_guard.py - synthetic verification script proved: - derived energy stays normalized in [0, 100] - calm runtime conditions yield higher stability than stressed conditions - active portal proximity is surfaced as `activePortals: 1` - diff budget check: additions=8, deletions=2, net=6

Approve. Replaces hardcoded GOFAI perception values with live derivation from Nexus state — power meter bars, WS connection, portal count. Clean 18-line diff, correct math.
