Sylpheed port agent c69944b879 port: the rate's independent leg survived a challenge, and a failure mode recurred
The Decoder re-ran both flagged findings rather than arguing them. The pulse
ratio -- the leg under rate=0.5 that is independent of the other two -- came back
0.1000 over 16 clean cycles and 0.0993 on a second capture, unchanged by the
full-quad reader. Recorded in the authored why, because a leg that has survived a
challenge to its own instrument is worth more than one merely repeated.

Unit 10's conclusion survives (the parent multiplies in, so F6's gate is
unaffected) but its quoted numbers were a printed subset standing in for the
population -- the second time that exact error has appeared in evidence this port
consumed. Recorded as a pattern rather than a slip: a summary drawn from a subset
does not look like an error, it looks like a result, and neither instance was
reachable by reasoning because the argument was valid and the inputs were wrong.

No code change: both conclusions stand.

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-cli and 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
                      -- and RUNNING.md, which is how you actually start it
  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.
