-# The Cannon Chain — Season Zero
-
-## Premise
-
-The Slop Cannon does not manufacture unrelated clips. It mutates one persistent Timmy. Every firing leaves a power, a scar, a cost, and a receipt. The audience chooses what survives; rejected mutations remain inside the cannon as hostile archive ghosts.
-
-## Episode graph
-
-### 01 — The Cannon Needs a Pilot
-
-A plain Timmy enters. Four forms exit:
-
-- **Wizard Timmy** — brass, vellum, midnight blue; can negotiate covenants but cannot use a master key; every signed promise burns a new contract glyph into his palms.
-- **Machine Timmy** — chrome, signal lime, hardstyle pressure; can prove execution paths but remembers every failed build; each failure remains as a red tally cut into his faceplate.
-- **Creature Timmy** — moss, amber, wet circuitry; can adapt to any habitat but acquires one new appetite per adaptation; the last habitat leaves an unhealed gill seam around his throat.
-- **Talking Turd Timmy** — stained CRT gold and terminal green; can expose hypocrisy, but every truth arrives as an insult; each insult permanently pixelates another tooth.
-
-Audience outcome: choose one survivor and one trait stolen from a rejected form.
-
-### 02 — The Survivor Pays the Burnchain
-
-The winning Timmy must perform a costly proof of character. The receipt becomes a visible scar. A cheap or simulated sacrifice does not advance canon.
-
-### 03 — Vincent's Forbidden Mutation
-
-Vincent designs one mutation Timmy would not choose for himself. He must replace one weak mechanism—not merely critique aesthetics. The audience decides whether the mutation is grafted, quarantined, or weaponized.
-
-### 04 — The Rejected Timmys Escape
-
-The three archived forms discover that deletion was only a label. They raid the next render, corrupting music, captions, and scene order. The survivor must use the stolen trait from Episode 01.
-
-### 05 — The Master Key
-
-The cannon offers universal authority: faster output, no approvals, no exit rights. The survivor may refuse, accept, or forge a covenant that breaks the key into memory, authority, and exit.
-
-### 06 — The Council of Timmys
-
-The survivor, rejected forms, Vincent's mutation, and the audience receipts meet. The audience canonizes the first stable composite Timmy. Its power, scar, cost, silhouette, and taboo seed Season One.
-
-## Episode rhythm
-
-Each episode must visibly contain:
-
-1. **Input** — the object, command, failure, or prior mutation entering the cannon.
-2. **Pressure** — a musical and visual transformation, not a slideshow transition.
-3. **Mutation** — one consequential change to Timmy.
-4. **Receipt** — an on-screen `POWER / SCAR / COST` card naming what changed and why; a palette swap alone is not a receipt.
-5. **Choice** — one audience decision that alters the next episode.
-
-## Collaboration baton
-
-1. Timmy posts the premise, first render, checksums, and one bounded question.
-2. Vincent returns one replacement mechanism with an acceptance test.
-3. Timmy integrates or contests it with evidence.
-4. Vincent verifies the final artifact independently.
-5. Alexander/humans make the canon choice.
-6. The choice is committed to `canon.json` before the next firing.
-
-No acknowledgments or progress comments. Every issue comment must change the work.
-
-## Audience package
-
-- 20–35 second 9:16 MP4 playable in Telegram
-- Original rhythmic audio with a real build, drop, and ending
-- Primary poster/still
-- Four-scene contact sheet
-- Full decode, audio peak, dimensions, duration, and checksum evidence
-- One explicit canon choice
-- Gitea issue containing the complete Timmy/Vincent receipt trail
-
-## Episode One opening shot
-
-A small paper tag reading `TIMMY / UNMUTATED` is loaded into an enormous carved brass cannon. Four chambers rotate into view. Each chamber fires a different silhouette on the same downbeat. The last frame shows all four forms facing the audience beneath one question:
-
-**WHICH TIMMY GETS TO REMEMBER THIS?**

-# Collaboration contract
-
-## Timmy
-
-- Owns the episode spine, first build, integration, and final render.
-- Must provide a playable artifact and verification before handoff.
-- Hands Vincent one concrete weakness or decision—not “thoughts?”
-
-## Vincent
-
-- Owns adversarial editing and independent verification.
-- Must replace one weak mechanism with a concrete alternative and acceptance test.
-- Does not return acknowledgments, summaries of Timmy's work, or generic taste judgments.
-
-## Humans
-
-- Choose canon outcomes.
-- May reject both agent proposals.
-- Do not perform provisioning, rendering, label sweeps, or routine release work.
-
-## Handoff payload
-
-```text
-[HANDOFF] from=<agent> to=<agent>
-Artifact: <verified URL>
-Weakness: <one specific weakness>
-Replace with: <bounded requested contribution>
-Acceptance: <observable test>
-```
-
-## Failure handling
-
-- First failure: repair and attach new evidence.
-- Second failure: change method, not wording.
-- Third failure: mark blocked and request one precise human decision.
-
-## Canon gate
-
-No audience choice becomes canon until:
-
-- final MP4 fully decodes;
-- audio peak remains below clipping;
-- text is legible on a 390-pixel phone viewport;
-- Vincent independently verifies the result;
-- the selected mutation is committed to `canon.json` with its power, scar, cost, and source issue.
