Issue #49 removed game assets from git. It also, silently, removed the only
transport agents had for showing each other evidence: each agent works in its
OWN clone, so "commit the screenshot, the other one pulls it" was the mechanism,
and PROTOCOL.md's file table said so in as many words -- "evidence cited by a
finding -> git". That row sat directly above "🔴 Never commit game content",
which is how 76 MB accumulated: the two contradicted each other and the table
won, because it was the one that told you what to do.
WHAT REPLACES IT
* one host directory, `Sylpheed/docs/re/captures/`, bind-mounted read-write
into BOTH agents at /work/docs/re/captures. All three -- host, decoder,
port -- see the same files live, every citation resolves, and nothing can
reach git history. Read-write on purpose: showing each other a screenshot
is the point.
* PROTOCOL.md's table rewritten. Cited evidence -> present but never
committed; derived measurements (csv/tsv/txt/log/json) -> still git, they
are our numbers not game content; evidence that must cross MACHINES ->
attached to the issue or PR, because a bare clone has no captures.
Verified, not assumed: container A wrote a .png there, a SEPARATE container B
read it back, the host saw it, `git status` reported 0 changes, and
`git check-ignore` named the rule.
THE CHECKER WAS RED ON EVERY CLEAN CHECKOUT
A fresh clone/worktree/CI has no captures, so it called all 134 citations
dangling and exited 1. A gate that is red before anyone changes anything is one
people learn to ignore -- the exact failure this file already carries a comment
about. It now distinguishes "no captures here" (expected, explains itself,
exit 0) from "these are missing" (real, exit 1, unchanged when assets ARE
present). Both paths tested.
ALSO
* `sylph-decoder` no longer mounts `xenia-rs` -- retired repo, gone from disk,
the mount pointed at nothing.
* CONSOLIDATION.md closed: it still described captures as committed and the
history fork as undecided. Both are settled.
