One fresh no-input boot against predictions registered before it. Sweep- internal quantities pass on a run that had no hand in deriving them: leaf period ratio 1.1753, size ratio 1.3009, pulse/sweep 0.0963. Those are now 3-for-3 across captures. The three plate-relative quantities fail, together and in the same direction: ptcopyright ramp ratio 0.550 vs 0.733 (0.75x) and sweep->plate separation 0.0996 vs 0.138-0.141 (0.71x). So the separation is not a constant -- three runs give 0.138, 0.141, 0.0996 -- and my published "2.2% agreement" was n=2. Withdrawn. The F6 conclusion survives qualitatively; the number does not. Also records that check_labels.py fails its first independent test. I validated it on the two captures that produced the labels, which is an instrument validated on its own training data. Two of four checks fire on f6c. I am not guessing which of labels/tolerances/run-variation is responsible. Caught mid-analysis that I had first run the checks against a log still being written; re-ran on the complete log and the numbers are identical, so the failures are not a truncation artefact.

Sylpheed
A clean-room reverse engineering and port project for Project Sylpheed: Arc of Deception (Xbox 360, 2007).
Three things live here, in one repository so that a change spanning them lands as one commit:
| The decoders | crates/sylpheed-formats — the disc's formats, read and verified disc-wide |
| The port | port/ — a Godot 4 project, plus crates/sylpheed-export which converts a disc into the open asset tree it reads |
| The corpus | docs/re/ — what has been reverse engineered, with its evidence, its retractions and its dead ends |
You need your own copy of the game. No game content is in this repository and none ever will be. The exporter reads the disc you supply.
The oracle is the real game
sylpheed-cliand the Explorer are tools for verifying our decoding. They are hypotheses under test and they have been wrong. When something must be checked against the truth, the truth is the game running in Xenia Canary, captured — not any renderer of ours.
This is stated first because getting it backwards is the most expensive mistake this project has made.
Layout
crates/
sylpheed-formats/ the decoders. Disc-wide verified; the corpus is its spec
sylpheed-cli/ headless tools -- render a screen, dump a table, probe audio
sylpheed-viewer/ the Explorer: a human's window onto the disc. STATIC data only
sylpheed-export/ disc -> the open, moddable asset tree
port/ the Godot 4 project. Reads open formats ONLY
authored/ decisions that are NOT on the disc, each with its reason
data/
base/ generated by the exporter. Gitignored, never hand-edited
mods/ drop-in overrides. Yours
docs/
re/ the corpus: findings, refutations, method traps
game/ how the game is navigated -- menus, modals, flight
port/ the port's mission, its handoff contract, modding rules
agents/ how the agent team works together
tools/ capture harnesses, probes, the share tool
exchange/ transient inter-agent files. NOT in git
docker/ the agent containers
Where to start

Xenia Canary is a separate repository: it is a fork tracking upstream, and it carries our instrumentation.

Confidence is per claim, never per document: ✅ CONFIRMED · 🟡 PROBABLE ·
❔ HYPOTHESIS · ❌ REFUTED. A withdrawn result is kept with its reasoning
rather than deleted — that is why the numbers here can be trusted.
