Sylpheed port agent a79acdd29a tools: verify-screen -- diff every exported screen against the reference renderer
The P1 gate is a pixel comparison, so it needs to be a command rather than a
paragraph. `tools/verify-screen` renders each screen in the manifest both ways
and reports the largest per-channel difference anywhere in the frame.

Both renderers are held to the same inputs on purpose:

* the reference CLI is the one `build-reference-cli` builds from the revision
  the exporter is PINNED to -- not `/reborn/target/`, which is a live mount of
  the other agent's checkout and moves mid-iteration. A pixel disagreement
  against a moving decoder has a free variable in it and proves nothing.
* `--black`, because the screen carries its own background and the CLI's default
  dim slate stands in for a 3D scene that is not on this screen.
* `--primitives --animated`, because the port draws every element at rest and
  those two flags are what make the CLI draw the same set. NOT `--focus`:
  nothing is focused at rest.

The threshold is 3/255 -- what integer-truncating compositing in the CLI and
float rounding on a GPU differ by. Above that is a placement, order or colour
disagreement that needs a reason, and the script says DIFFERS rather than
pretending a wider tolerance is a result.

Sylpheed Godot

A clean-room Godot 4 port of Project Sylpheed: Arc of Deception, starting with the menu shell: developer splash → intro video → title → main menu → submenus.

You need your own copy of the game. Nothing in this repository is game content. An offline exporter reads the disc you supply and writes an open, moddable asset tree; the Godot project reads only that tree and never touches a disc format.

  your disc  ──▶  crates/sylpheed-export  ──▶  export/   ──▶  port/  (Godot 4)
                  (Rust; decoders come from      JSON + PNG        reads ONLY
                   sylpheed-formats)             + OGG + OGV       open formats

Why the wall

Two reasons, and the second is the interesting one:

  1. Godot cannot read IPFB archives, RATC bundles, T8aD textures, XMA banks or WMV video, and it should not learn to.
  2. Modding is a goal of this port. If the runtime reads the original formats, modding means reverse engineering. If it reads JSON and PNG, modding means opening a file.

Where the knowledge comes from

The decoders live in sylpheed-formats, pinned by revision — a separate project, where the reverse engineering happens. Its docs/port/HANDOFF.md is the contract: what has been decoded, what was measured off the running game, and what is known to be undecodable. Read it before assuming a value is on the disc.

Layout

crates/sylpheed-export/ disc → open formats. Regenerates export/ wholesale
port/ the Godot 4 project
authored/ decisions that are not on the disc, each with its reason
export/ generated, gitignored, never hand-edited
docs/ the mission, the format spec, the agent's loop prompt

Status

Pre-P0. Nothing runs yet.
