 ## Current priorities
 
-1. [3D model and local map re-evaluation](../TODO.md#3d-model-and-local-map-re-evaluation) — asset scorecard and fixes, plus OpenStreetMap/3D data, licensed reference imagery, photoreal facades, AI-assisted composition and map/Gaussian-splatting evaluation.
-2. [Character development](../TODO.md#character-development) — crowd, age, build, hair and outfit variety; generator-first, with the frozen NPC contract.
-3. [0.10.0 release candidate](../TODO.md#milestone-0100--release-candidate) — versioned release hardening after the unversioned development tracks.
+1. [Blender NPC model overhaul](../TODO.md#blender-npc-model-overhaul-top-priority) — part-based head/face/hands pipeline and 16,000-budget contract.
+2. [MakeHuman and 3D model/map improvements](../TODO.md#makehuman-character-pipeline) — body intake, asset re-evaluation and local map reconstruction.
+3. [0.10.0 release candidate](../TODO.md#milestone-0100--3d-model-and-map-improvements-minor) — versioned release hardening after the unversioned development tracks.
