THE PHANTOM. PLN drafts in backlog.md, and he drafts in LIST ITEMS. Mid-run he
wrote himself a deliberation:
-- Q: This intro is quite raptech. jazz intro? quand on decolle opening? reflect
and quand_on_decolle silently joined the OPAL set. The resolver's "codename
carries extra words" branch is a subset test, so {quand, on, decolle} being 3 of
those 13 words was a match. It then flowed downstream exactly as designed — into
the .txt, the preload plan, the remap scope and the gig gate. The pipe worked
perfectly, on garbage.
Two guards, because either alone is too clever:
* _NOTE_RE skips items marked Q:/NB:/NOTE:/TODO:/FIXME:/IDEA:, and PRINTS what
it skipped. A note dropped silently and a track dropped silently look
identical from inside the parser, and only one of them is survivable.
* the extra-words branch is bounded to 4 decoration words. Real entries spend
at most 4 ("[129] Desire [TODO BASS ETC!]"); that note spent 10.
An UNMARKED prose line now RAISES instead of resolving. That is deliberate and
tested: red gate, PLN adds "Q:" or deletes the line. A phantom track goes to the
venue. Loud beats clever.
(He has since re-added quand_on_decolle under an explicit ## SOUNDCHECK heading,
as a real entry. It arrived carrying the full off-by-one-column corpus pattern —
11 moves — now migrated. That is the pipe working on something real.)
DEAD BUTTONS. PLN, playing: "not seeing effects on button 44 nor 43?" on
do_it_right, "no buttons 42 43?" on ouais_je_funk. They were not broken, they
were never mapped. Now:
do_it_right ^43 d3 hats — HIS OWN TODO implemented verbatim: "an opening
legato or att to make it slowly go from hard dry h to an
open ho? as in take 5 drops". Held, legato walks 0.4->2.5
and hpf 7k->2.5k over 8 cycles; released, it snaps back.
do_it_right ^44 d4 bass — octave down, DROP TO THE CELLAR
ouais_je_funk ^42 d2 clap — the clap had no gate at all. Handclap roll.
d4's crush/octersub land on ^52/^32 exactly as PLN asked. That required
REORDERING the two lines, not renumbering them: migrate-columns assigns knobs in
order of declaration, so the file now carries a comment saying the order is
load-bearing. Fighting the tool by hand would just be undone next run.
Set: 15 tracks, 0 moves pending, silent-eval --seeded 15/15, pvlint 0 errors,
setlist tests all green (now pinning lime_tacos OUT and the phantom absent).
