◉ System Information

The Nexus is Timmy's canonical sovereign home-world — a local-first 3D space that serves as both a training ground and a live visualization surface for the Timmy AI system.

The WebSocket gateway (server.py) runs on port 8765 and bridges Timmy's cognition layer, game-world connectors, and the browser frontend. The HERMES indicator in the HUD shows live connectivity status.
