The production bar's cell E names en, ar, zh, ru and hi; the render check
measured two. It now server-renders the board in all five and requires
each panel to render with no error and the board's text to be the
locale's, not English.
check:public-hygiene is the white-label gate for the giveaway, and translator-org-links.json
shipped an internal role noun: the held-Bible-Society reason read "...is the Driver's ruling, not
this script's". A recipient reading our data files should not meet our process vocabulary. It now
reads "a product ruling", which keeps the meaning exactly — the point was always that this build
will not decide a doctrine question on its own.
Fixed in the script that writes the table, not the artifact, or the next build would put it back;
the same phrase in that file's header comment went too, rather than waiting to be flagged
separately now studio has closed the comment half of this class.
Regenerated by re-running the verifier: 16 of 16 organisations answered again, so the table is
current rather than hand-edited. My published tables now carry no internal vocabulary — checked
with word boundaries across all of them, which is also how I learned the six "rega" hits reported
in my sweep were the word "aggregates".
The join table's never_read note said 'pending the Driver'; it now says
'pending a product decision' (check:public-hygiene, the giveaway's
white-label gate). Fixed in the builder that writes it.
At 390px the toolbar was one sideways-scrolling row with no scroll cue, so Delete
selected, Select all, Clear selection and the count ran past the edge. On a phone
Draw, Print, More and the count now fit one row, and More opens the three list
actions as a row beneath; desktop is unchanged. "More" in all eleven languages.
Two status lines formatted their counts with an inline en-US; they now call
formatCount, the one place counts are formatted (fixed en-US while numerals are
held for the Driver), so the only remaining LOC-ENUS site is the library's own.
When the data arrived while the map was still loading tiles, the paint was skipped
and never retried, so Mobilize opened on an empty map (and Campaigns could miss its
dots the same way). A skipped paint now retries once the map is idle.
A server where Rudder is laptop-only (RUDDER_ENGINE=0) no longer starts a
leftover engine binary. If an engine that records its own machine's microphone
is reached from another machine anyway, Rudder shows the laptop notice and
disables Record instead of recording the server.
The dev backend answers /status with the same offline status as /events, and
Rudder reads it on mount and whenever the event stream drops, so a proxy that
buffers the stream no longer leaves it saying "Runs on your computer" on a
server that should run the engine. The local-microphone notice no longer shows
off this computer. The legend progress bar paints its grey band as a rounded
strip and rounds the first and last segment, which the 24px touch targets had
squared off.
The dev backend reports expected=true while an engine the server is set up to
run is down (RUDDER_ENGINE=1 or RUDDER_AUDIO=browser). Rudder then reads "Not
running yet" and says the engine is starting or failed to set up; "Runs on
your computer" remains for a server with no engine at all.
generate-tree derives each profile's tier from its composes edges (composing
anything is capability 4; composing a capability-4 plugin is capability 5). An
explicit type is checked against the derivation and a contradiction fails the
build naming both. check:capability-derived asserts every profile is 1-5 and
agrees. documentation/PRESET-PLUGIN-STANDARD.md describes the one
*.instances.json file a preset plugin declares.
Every plugin is capability 1 to 5, so the rail files each bundle under its
highest capability again. A bundle not yet in production says Experimental on
its own rows. check:studio-rail now asserts there is no section outside 1-5.
The Experimental section is a stage, not a tier, so its heading showed CAP 0
and the Research Gallery (capability 5) looked like a capability-0 plugin. The
heading now reads EXP and each of its rows names its own capability. Clicking a
plugin opens it without unfolding its folder or its parts; only the twisty
folds and unfolds, and a closed folder that stands for the plugin stays closed.
The engine's local device list does not apply when the page's own microphone is
used, so a server without pactl no longer shows its error above the draft.
On a loaded server the last words can land seconds after Stop, and the widget
read "Stop" until they did. Stop now releases the mic and returns to idle at
once while the session's socket stays open for the tail. Each engine session
sends its events to its own reader, so a session still draining never writes
into the next one, and Record again simply lets go of the old tail.
Collapsed, the pill reads "Rudder · voice to text". While recording it drops the
label for a red dot, a mic that lights only while speech is detected, and the
last few words on one truncated line, so a closed panel still shows the reader
is being heard. Rudder reports this through an `activity` event. Open, the
panel no longer scrolls: the draft fills it and scrolls on its own, stays
editable while recording, and notices sit above it; with settings or info
open the panel scrolls so they stay reachable.
With RUDDER_AUDIO=browser the engine records no local microphone. The page
captures the reader's mic, converts it to 16 kHz mono PCM in an AudioWorklet,
and streams it over a WebSocket at /api/rudder/stream into the same speech
session a local recorder feeds. The words come back on that socket to that
reader only, never on the shared event stream. One session at a time; a second
reader is told the engine is busy. The engine honours RUDDER_HOME, accepts the
public host named in RUDDER_ALLOW_HOST, and refuses a socket from another
origin. The dev proxy now carries WebSockets to backends.
The engine records the microphone of the machine it runs on, so a cloud dev
server has none by design. Off loopback (and not the desktop app), an absent
engine now reads "Runs on your computer" with where to open Rudder instead,
rather than build instructions for a missing binary.
Collapsed, the corner is a round bubble that turns red, pulses and shows a dot
while Rudder listens. Open, it is a 360px panel (a 60vh bottom sheet on a phone)
with a one-line header, the draft as the main element, and record and copy under
it; language, microphone, clear and debug sit behind a settings button.
Collapsing only hides the panel, so a recording keeps going and the draft stays.
tOr() rendered English while a key was in flight. All eleven keys it guarded are on main, so it
is gone and every call site reads the catalogue: nParts, engineMissing, sheet.loading,
guide.wayInAll/wayInSome/wayInWhat, legend.hnrTip, guide.howNumbersMade, guide.isSignLanguage,
sheet.linkCopied, sheet.share.
I compared each default against the catalogue before deleting it, rather than assuming they
matched — deleting a fallback silently changes what a reader sees. Ten were identical. The
eleventh was not: gospel.sheet.share held my "Share this card" against the catalogue's "Share".
The catalogue wins, because it is translated in eleven locales where my phrase was not and a
button inside a card need not restate its container, so THE SHARE BUTTON NOW READS "Share" —
a visible change, deliberate, and the shorter label suits the 390px screen where those tap
targets were just fixed.
The four parameterised calls needed doing by hand: my regex for tOr(key, english, params)
stopped at the first ")" inside fmt(...), so it silently converted seven of eleven and left
four. Counted the remainder instead of trusting the count it printed.
gates:pre 11/11, ENGLISH-LEAKS PASS, and the built bundle no longer contains the inline English.
The panel clipped its content, so at 390x844 the lower controls and the draft
could not be reached. The widget element now scrolls inside the panel, the
panel height follows the dynamic viewport minus the safe-area insets, the
corner host sits inside the safe area, and on a narrow screen Rudder uses less
padding and a shorter draft so the draft stays visible below the controls.
Two gaps found while checking the corner widget (1775f5ac: "Needs eyes: open, HMR, collapse" — all
three verified in Firefox against the running Plugin Studio: opens, keeps the SAME element across a
Studio hot update, collapses).
- LIVE MIC WHEN COLLAPSED: rudder-voice emits `recording` (true/false); the Studio's corner button
turns red with "● " while it listens, so closing the panel never hides that the mic is on.
- DEV BACKENDS SURVIVE VITE RESTARTS: Vite restarts itself when vite.config.js or anything it imports
changes. The backend was stopped on every restart and a new one started at once; the old process
still held the port, the new one died "address already in use", and Rudder showed "engine offline"
until `bun run dev` was restarted by hand (measured twice). Backends now live in a process-wide
registry: reused across restarts, stopped only when the dev process exits, restarted if they crash.
The "engine not running, quietly" answers (89ff2238) are unchanged and read the same registry.
rega: the Scripture scope stayed English under ar, because gospel.res.newTestament and
gospel.res.fullBible exist in NO locale — while gospel.charts.newTestament and
gospel.charts.fullBible have existed, translated, in all eleven all along. Every locale was
falling back to my English defaults, and even en read my lowercase "full Bible" against the
catalogue's "Full Bible".
I asked studio for three new keys without checking whether the words were already owned. Two of
them were. The chip now reads the existing pair — verified in the built bundle: the Arabic
"العهد الجديد" and "الكتاب المقدس كاملاً" are both in it — and only the part count still needs a
key of its own, gospel.res.nParts with {n}, which I have narrowed studio's request to.
Two keys for one word is exactly the drift I have spent this flight fixing in other people's
code. The namespace reads oddly for a map chip, and that is the smaller problem.
dx-shepherd caught what I had just shipped: "full Bible", "New Testament" and "N parts" were
being generated in the BUILDER, so English was baked into data that no locale can translate and
no catalogue owns. The same mistake I have been fixing in other people's surfaces all day, made
one commit earlier by me.
The builder now ships FCBH's part count and nothing else — 27 on 400 codes, 66 on 41, another
count on 82, none on 367 — and the leaf names it through tOr(), so it localises the moment
studio adds three keys: gospel.res.newTestament, gospel.res.fullBible and gospel.res.nParts
with {n}. English inline until then, as always.
A count that is neither 27 nor 66 is still reported as itself and never rounded up to a
Testament, and no count still names only the source.
The Scripture chip named its source ("Faith Comes By Hearing") and stopped there, for 887
codes. FCBH publishes its own verse scope in the same record — au.vsc, "N parts, FIRST to
LAST" — and 567 of those 766 carry one: 400 New Testaments, 41 full Bibles, the rest partial.
A catalyst standing with a group needs to know whether that link is a whole Bible or two
books, and the data said so all along.
The chip now reads "Scripture · checked (New Testament — Faith Comes By Hearing)". 27 and 66
are named as Testament and Bible; anything else reports the part count FCBH claims and is never
rounded up. 367 sx codes still carry no scope — Scripture Earth's 104 and Door43's 17 publish
none in this record, and 47 FCBH rows omit it — and those say only the source, which is the
honest thing to say when the scope is unknown.
Found because go-int asked whether the FCBH text is a New Testament. It is a fair question to
ask of a map that had the answer in a field it never rendered. Their tree now reads the same
field and their green count went 128 to 195 across the roster.
Still FCBH's claim, cited, not counted book by book here — the same standard as the rest of
this corpus, and it is on the chip rather than buried in a builder.
A ?tree= link applied its node as soon as the tree file loaded; if that was
before the rows, the node's on-board languages were the empty set and the
grid restored to 0 (rega F1). The node now applies once both have loaded.
The New Testament rule also reads FCBH's own verse scope (people-group-pins
codes[iso].au.vsc, 27 or 66 parts), gospel-plugin's pointer: green 128 ->
195. Kyrgyz (33 parts) and three languages with no scope stay yellow.
A family click wrote ?tree=<id> AND its whole language list (hundreds of
codes for a big family), a link that breaks in chat apps and SMS. The
board's writer now runs after the kit's and removes 'language' while a tree
node is active; ?tree= alone restores the node and its languages.
1 THE CHIPS SAID "unchecked" ON VERIFIED LINKS. Card mode never fetches the verification table,
so every chip understated the evidence behind it — caught on central-sama, whose Scripture and
film are both verified. Each shard now carries the states for its OWN urls, keyed by url exactly
as linkVerify is, so vchip() and vtitle() work unchanged. Shards grew 8.0 KB to 14.0 KB mean,
29 KB worst; against 6,051 KB for the map that is a price worth paying for not lying about
evidence.
2 MY GATE'S FALSE NEGATIVE, which cost rega a round: it asserted
text.includes(slug.split('-')[0]) — "abai" against a rendered "Abai Sungai". A slug fragment is
not a name. It compares the roster's name, case-folded, anywhere in the card.
3 THE EMPTY GREY BAND. The sheet is a bottom panel capped at 62% of the map; in card mode there
is no map under it, so a phone showed 285px of grey above it. Full height in card mode, and the
border radius goes with it.
4 THE CLOSE BUTTON with nothing behind it — hidden in card mode, both instances of it.
gates:pre 11/11, LINK-COVERAGE 12,292 unchanged, SFC-PARSE PASS. rega spot-checks after landing
per dx-shepherd; the render claim is still not mine to make.
Third report of a blank card, and the root cause was never a missing field — it was two code
paths producing "the same" object. build-field-cards.mjs copied groupAt()'s 39 fields by hand
and missed door43, which exists only in that normalizer, so the sheet's
`!selectedGroup.door43.length` threw on undefined. I fixed a value, then a timing, then would
have added door43 and waited for the fourth.
The shard now ships the RAW INPUTS the map itself holds — the pin row, the whole code record,
the country name and the two bridge records — and the leaf's groupFrom() normalizes both
paths. groupAt(i) is a three-line wrapper over it. A field added to the sheet reaches the card
with no second edit, and forgetting one is no longer possible. The code record is passed WHOLE
rather than picked over, because picking fields is exactly the mistake above. Shards got
smaller doing it: mean 8.0 KB against 9.1.
Two sheet-level sources the card fetches nothing for are seeded from the shard: the prayer page
(prayIndex) and the SUN block. Both matter most to this persona — a catalyst with a Deaf group,
or one handing someone a prayer page — and both were silently absent while the card "worked".
Verified statically, since I cannot render: every one of the 28 fields the sheet reads off
selectedGroup is produced by groupFrom, so the two paths cannot disagree about any of them.
rega has the render.
With no facet filter and no selection, a table narrowed by typing exported every
row in the source. The export now takes an optional search transform, and the
data table passes the matcher it already uses for its visible rows. An explicit
selection still outranks the search, and a caller that passes nothing is
unchanged.
The sheet tested scripture_url alone, so for every code whose readable text is NOT at c.s it
rendered "Scripture · none found". 887 codes keep theirs elsewhere — on the Faith Comes By
Hearing record, on Scripture Earth, or in a Door43 translation — and 332 field cards carry
one. A catalyst reading that chip was told there is nothing to read while the link existed.
The chip now links `sx` and NAMES its source, because a reader deserves to know they are
being sent to an audio site to read: "Scripture · checked (Faith Comes By Hearing)". The
verification state and title come from the same record as any other link, so nothing here is
claimed that the link record does not already support. The card carries sx for the same
reason — the tier that promises Scripture and the panel that shows it must agree.
Two placement mistakes of mine, both caught by checking the DATA rather than the diff: the
first edit matched `credit: c.cr || null` in the bridge helper instead of the card object, and
a str.replace with no match is a silent no-op that reports success. The card had no sx and
said so when I looked for it, which is why the second attempt asserted its anchor.
The OR-within-key assertion compared with typed numbers (57 + 806), which
break whenever the gospel pools are corrected (one is: 806 -> 518). It now
checks the rule against the table's own coverage report.
Query mode, the published names as an alias map (links already shared
keep restoring), write only on our own leaves. The board's own writer now
keeps only view/group/panel/tree. NOT READY: an old multi-value link
(band=yes|partial) reads back as one value until the kit reads '|' on
parse; the model check pins that case and fails until it does.
go-int cross-checked 20 roster languages with "no New Testament found in the pools" against
open-data signals. Thirteen of the twenty had readable text all along — on a record the tier
could not see — and chasing that found one rule written four times and wrong in two of them.
THE BUG. tierOfCode tested `!!c.s`, one field, while this build's own hasReadableScripture
tested four sources. Tier 2 means "Scripture AND film", so a language whose text is on the
Faith Comes By Hearing record (au.m names the media it holds), on Scripture Earth, or in a
Door43 translation was scored 1 — "some resource found" — with its own text and the JESUS
Film both in hand. Measured: 602 codes and 2,001 of 12,379 groups move 1 -> 2. Tier 0 does
not move at all, 1,592 before and after, so nothing about who has NOTHING changes: the gap
lists, the 369 zero-access groups and the bridge-reach table are untouched.
THE SAME BUG DOWNSTREAM, and this is the one a catalyst would have felt: resourceRows typed
an FCBH record "audio, text, video" as Audio Scripture only, so the access table's
byType.Scripture never saw it. 288 people groups were published as "watch or hear, cannot
read" while their own readable Scripture sat behind that link. Access now reads 1,129 "read
and watch" (was 869), 518 "cannot read" (was 806), 85 "read" (was 57), 369 nothing found and
6 stories only — unchanged where it should be, and 2,107 in total either way. Typing the row
by its text would have dropped "can hear", so the access builder now counts a Scripture row
whose scope names audio as hearable too.
ONE OWNER NOW. hasReadableScripture is exported from gospel-resource-rows.js and imported by
the pin builder and by check-gospel-coverage-consistent, whose arm F had its own narrow copy
and therefore reported 2,001 disagreements against the corrected tier — a gate defending the
bug it exists to catch. A rule with four copies has no owner; this one has.
`sx` ships alongside: the readable text with its source named, for the 887 codes whose text is
not at c.s, so a surface can LINK what the tier now counts instead of claiming Scripture and
showing a film. Wiring it into the sheet and the field card is the next commit; this one is
data and rules only, and public/ is deliberately NOT rebuilt because rega is rendering this
worktree.
A language with one scored 5 (its Bible counted as Scripture) and sorted
to the top of the 'Open data' column, the opposite of the translation
question (rega, pre-landing T1). The column is now blank for languages
with a New Testament found, so it sorts them last; the drawer still shows
every signal.
A shared table link can now be written as one query param per facet, and a
param name may map to a different bus key, so links already published on
partner pages keep working. The CSV export matched no rows once a reader picked
a second value in a filter; the default row match now reads a multi-value filter
as OR, and the gate no longer exempts that line.
Second failure on the same feature, and the cause was timing rather than values: the sheet
mounted on cardMode ALONE, so it read selected.country before the shard fetch had set it.
My previous fix put the right value in the right place and left it arriving too late.
The sheet now appears when there is DATA — v-else-if="selected || showGapList", with cardMode
removed from that condition entirely, because a card that has arrived sets both. A wait box
stands in until then and shows the error if the shard 404s, so a loading card looks like one
and a failed card says so instead of showing nothing.
And the card now carries the BRIDGE's own links. In card mode the pin index is never fetched,
so bridgeResources() found nothing and a tier-0 card would have named a way in with no way to
follow it — the single most important thing on that group's card. Derived in the builder
exactly as the leaf derives it, FCBH text fallback included, because a group's readable
Scripture is sometimes only on the audio record. Verified in the data: abai-sungai's card
carries Indonesian with its Scripture, film and Zume links.
NOT LANDING THIS until rega has rendered it on the branch. I have now shipped this feature
blank twice on checks that passed, and the missing check was always the same one: that it
renders. I cannot run a browser, so the claim is not mine to make.
Card BUILD-SHAREABLE-FILTERED-TABLES, for researchers and media-to-movements teams: narrow the table to
the peoples you are working on, then give that exact view to a teammate or reopen it on a phone.
TWO GAPS, both measured on main before building.
1. IT WAS NOT REUSABLE. The share hash was a PRIVATE function inside
plugin-designs/research-dashboard/src/composables/useDashboardShell.js, so exactly one dashboard in
the fleet could produce a link. go-int's board had none — grepped, zero matches — and every future
kit dashboard would have had none either. Nothing in it was research-specific except its address.
It is now library/composables/useShareableView.js, parameterized: the bus and labelFor are passed
in, the filter and search param names are options, and no dashboard is named inside it. The
research dashboard supplies the one genuinely research thing — labelFor, for the display-only slug.
2. THE LINK WAS INCOMPLETE, AND SILENTLY SO. The hash serialized filterSet ONLY. Typing in the search
box is the commonest way this persona narrows a table, so a shared link reopened with MORE ROWS than
the sender saw, with nothing to tell the recipient their set was wider. For population data passed
between teams that is worse than a link that plainly fails. `q` is appended only when a term is
present, so a dashboard with an empty search box writes byte-identically the hash it wrote before.
`&` joins params now, so it is reserved in values alongside `;` `:` `*` `,` `%` — otherwise a search for
"rice & beans" would truncate the link at the ampersand.
check:share-policy grows a DRIVEN arm: the two pure functions are lifted from the kit source and RUN,
so nine guarantees are measured rather than asserted — the old format byte-for-byte on an empty search,
slug still display-only, multi-value still dropping the slug, the typed search reaching the link and
coming back, a literal comma in a people-group name surviving, an ampersand in the search surviving, and
both legacy shapes (JSON hashes, and old #f= links with no q) still restoring. No browser needed to
prove a string round-trips.
Source only. Rebuild: research-dashboard, dashboard-plus-grid.
check:filter-multivalue arm C follows the file: it lifted escapeValue/unescapeValue from the shell to
drive the hash round-trip, and said so plainly when they moved ("the hash format moved and this gate is
blind to it") rather than passing vacuously. Repointed to the kit module.
