Give street props colliders, zoned placements and variants

Props were decoration: the guard and guests walked straight through benches,
bins, bollards and planters. They now block movement and steer guests around.

Collision
- _add_prop_model() fits a StaticBody3D from the model's mesh bounds in
  holder-local space: a cylinder for bollard/bin/hydrant, a box otherwise, so
  placement rotation and variant scale carry over.
- Fallback primitives go through the same fit, so a missing .glb cannot silently
  remove collision.
- Each prop also publishes a NavigationObstacle3D; NpcAvatar enables agent
  avoidance and moves with the safe velocity from velocity_computed. The navmesh
  stays a flat walkable plane and avoidance does the steering.

Placement
- PROP_PLACEMENTS groups furniture by entrance, mid-block and curb zones, with a
  static placement_problems() validator for bounds, overlap/min-spacing,
  duplicates, and the door/steps/guest-lane exclusions.
- variant_for(index) gives deterministic yaw jitter, subtle scale, and optional
  clutter (bag by the bin, crate by the newspaper boxes, cone by the hydrant).

Verification
- New windowed smoke_props.gd: guard walks into a bench and stops; a guest
  headed beyond the bench routes around it and never enters the collider.
- Headless 182 -> 187: placement validation and its failure modes, variant
  determinism/range, collider + obstacle on every placed prop, fallback collider.
- Other smokes (PLAN verbs, crowd, emergency, timeline) still pass; Python
  tooling 53/53; screenshots recaptured; compare 9 good / 0 bad.
- Version 0.4.0. TODO: collision/placement section moved to DONE; prop pipeline
  checks remain.

+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (working tree). Headless **98/98**; `src/test/smoke_plan_verbs.gd` exercises all five verbs.
+
+- [x] Eye contact as a Level 1 action (PLAN / glossary). Distinct from raise-hand. Add a
+      radial slice if it ships.
+- [x] "I recognize this person" is a player decision recorded as evidence, not a pre-attached
+      artifact on every staff/guest type. Staff still auto-recognize when `override_access` is
+      empty (`AccessLoadout`).
+- [x] Formal warning can activate the body-camera / security-light flag (PLAN Level 2). Overlay
+      is currently always on; toggling should write an incident event.
+- [x] Blocking stations the guard between the person and the door (PLAN Level 3). Today it only
+      sends `apply_player_action(BLOCKING)`.
+- [x] "Request reason for entry" as a Level 3 ask, with a short NPC reply from `dialogue_lines`.
+
+## Crowd presentation
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (working tree). Headless **105/105**; `src/test/smoke_crowd.gd` verifies rubbernecking and panic clearing. A 16-NPC entrance measured ~1.2 ms/frame (824 fps, vsync off), so no LOD/culling was added at the current cap.
+
+`CrowdSystem` is a mood/attention float. PLAN wants people watching, gathering, and panicking.
+
+- [x] On `aggressive_behavior` / `emergency_responder`, nearby idle NPCs stop and face the
+      incident (rubberneck). On `crowd_panic`, they move away from the door.
+- [x] Profile a busy entrance with textured materials and props; add LOD or culling for distant
+      NPCs if frame time drops.
+
+## Emergency aftermath
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (working tree). Headless **113/113**; `src/test/smoke_emergency.gd` covers the unjustified-call investigation, the evacuation aftermath, and the review copy.
+
+Responder outcomes (`command` / `restraint` / `evacuation` / `arrest`) are log lines. PLAN also
+wants evacuation, a closed street, and an investigation when the call was unjustified.
+
+- [x] `evacuation` outcome actually clears the entrance (NPCs leave, door stays locked).
+- [x] Unjustified emergency (low danger, no weapon) writes an investigation note on the shift
+      review and applies the existing false-report / reputation hit.
+- [x] Review copy names the responder outcome, not only battery and crowd %.
+
+## Body-camera replay
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (working tree). Headless **120/120**; `src/test/smoke_timeline.gd` opens the timeline from the review, steps through every event, and returns to the review.
+
+- [x] Shift review: a timeline of recorded incident events (ADR-0005 already stores them).
+      Scrub or step through; no live 3D replay required in the first version.
+
+## NPC theater

+

+is in the working tree. Bodies still idle-stand at those spots.

+      stays put and plays the hat/sign.

+

+
+- [x] Loop a low crowd bed that rises with `CrowdSystem.mood`.
+- [x] Radio open/close crackle on the existing radio panel, still headless-safe (no-op without
+      an audio server).

+- [x] HUD font scale in settings.
+
+## Scenario content still missing vs PLAN lists
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (working tree). Headless **149/149**; `src/test/smoke_scenario_content.gd` spawns the refusal event and the celebrity arrival through the real signal path.
+
+- [x] Joke Shop: guest on the reservation list without ID; borrowed/mismatched ID; guest
+      refuses wand screening; late arrival during a performance.
+- [x] Studio: filming-boundary repeat (influencer ignores a posted line); celebrity-arrival
+      crowd spike (more rubberneckers, not only one `arrive` spawn).
+- [x] Building: "activate body camera" and "request reason" once those verbs exist, used in
+      at least one authored event.
+
+## Distribution follow-up (host config)
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (working tree). Headless **153/153**.
+
+Verified via API+host credentials (2026-10-31):
+
+- [x] Repo is **public** (`private:false`) and account has admin rights.
+- [x] Release `v0.2.1` now carries all five artifacts (portable binaries + NSIS installer +
+      AppImage).
+- [x] **Host setting applied**: `[service] REQUIRE_SIGNIN_VIEW = false` in `/etc/gitea/app.ini`
+      (backup written alongside), Gitea restarted. Verified anonymously: repo page 200, API 200,
+      and a release asset downloads with the full 50.8 MB AppImage.
+
+## Release pipeline follow-up
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (working tree). Headless **153/153**.
+
+- [x] Fix `tools/publish_release.sh`: the `~/.git-credentials` branch never set `AUTH`,
+      so every tag build since v0.2.2 failed to publish.
+- [x] Add a `github.token` fallback in `.gitea/workflows/build.yml` (the repo has no
+      `GITEA_TOKEN` secret).
+- [x] Fall back to the checkout's git extraheader when no token/credentials exist (the
+      Gitea runner does not expose `github.token`).
+- [x] Uploads now fail loudly and the release is verified to carry every artifact
+      (a silent HTTP 4xx used to leave an empty release with a green job).
+- [x] Host disk expanded to 16G; v0.2.0 and v0.2.9 releases restored from the local artifacts.
+- [x] Host maintenance via `root@192.168.88.30`: apt cache cleaned and journald capped
+      (`SystemMaxUse=300M` in `/etc/systemd/journald.conf.d/99-size.conf`); ~7.6G free.
+- [x] Verified end to end: tagging v0.2.12 produced a release with all five artifacts
+      (AppImage, Linux, macOS, NSIS installer, Windows) from CI, with no repo secret.
+- [x] Backfill decision: v0.2.4–v0.2.8 stay superseded; their tags and source remain, and the
+      release page points at the current build. No rebuilds planned.
+
+## Open Polish
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (working tree). Headless **153/153**.
+
+- [x] Keep `%` placeholders stable in `Strings.fmt` when adding keys (positional formatting).
+
+## Screen design references (QA tooling)
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (working tree). 30 Python tooling tests pass; the live judge run classed 3 captures as match and 3 as review (concept mockups are more stylised), with no confident mismatch.
+
+- [x] `tools/screen_designs.py generate` writes one reference design per screen
+      (from the `docs/` descriptions) to `docs/screens/designs/`, with an offline
+      `--draft` wireframe mode and an OpenRouter `--ai` mockup mode.
+- [x] `tools/screen_designs.py compare` checks `docs/screenshots/*.png` against the
+      designs (aspect ratio, size, blank-frame, and layout/palette/detail drift).
+- [x] Vision-model judge for semantic screenshot comparison: `judge` sends the
+      capture + reference design to a vision model, classes verdicts as
+      match/review/diff with a confidence threshold, supports `--dry-run`, `--json`,
+      `--only`, and `--model`, and reads the repo `.env` for the API key.
+
+## Tooling (when an editor workflow exists)
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (working tree). Headless **157/157**; the exported `.tres` venues round-trip through the resource loader.
+
+- [x] Author venues as `.tres` resources: `tools/export_venues.gd` writes
+      `content/venues/<id>.tres` from the factory, and a test loads them back to check
+      nothing is lost (events, profiles, policy, phases, door lines, locations).
+- [x] GUT decision: **not adopted.** The custom headless runner (`src/test/test_runner.gd`)
+      already covers 157 assertions without an editor plugin, runs in CI, and keeps the
+      project dependency-free; adding GUT would duplicate coverage and require the editor.
+
+## In-Game Scene Examples
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (v0.3.0 working tree). `python3 tools/screen_designs.py list` reports
+19 screens (8 scene, 11 UI); the Python tooling tests pass.
+
+- [x] Extend the `tools/screen_designs.py` catalogue with the screens that exist in code but
+      had no reference: wand screening, Joke Shop door queue, TV Studio celebrity arrival,
+      crowd panic, responder arrival, body-camera timeline, escalation HUD.
+- [x] Add a `list` subcommand so the catalogue is inspectable without generating images.
+- [x] Cover the new entries with `tools/test_screen_designs.py` assertions.
+- [x] Regenerate the deterministic draft references under `docs/screens/designs/`.
+      (`generate` now keeps existing references unless `--force` is passed, so a draft run
+      cannot replace an AI mockup; `--only` selects a subset.)
+
+## Rendering Quality
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (v0.3.0 working tree). Screenshots regenerated; `screen_designs.py
+compare` reports 6 good / 0 bad.
+
+- [x] Add a shared surface-material module (`src/game/materials.gd`) with
+      roughness/metallic/uv-scale profiles per surface and a single environment tune-up
+      (tonemap, glow, fog, shadows).
+- [x] Rebuild `WorldBuilder` surfaces with the material profiles and add street detail:
+      window bands, door trim, bollards, bench, bin, curb, planter foliage.
+- [x] Per-phase environment values (fog, sky energy, glow) so night reads darker and the
+      marquee glows.
+- [x] Improve NPC silhouette and materials: per-role clothing palette, caps/hoods/backpacks,
+      sleeves and hands, walking leg swing.
+- [x] Cover materials/environment/avatar helpers with headless tests
+      (`test_materials.gd`, `test_target_cycle.gd`).
+
+## AI 3D Model Tooling
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (v0.3.0 working tree). `model_pipeline.py build` + `audit` pass for all
+six props; `test_generated_props.gd` proves they import as scenes and that the world places
+them.
+
+- [x] Add `tools/model_pipeline.py`: prop catalogue, deterministic low-poly GLB builder,
+      OpenRouter concept-image generation, palette sampling and GLB audit.
+- [x] Add `tools/test_model_pipeline.py` (valid GLB structure, deterministic output, audit
+      failures, sRGB→linear conversion, role assignment).
+- [x] Generate the prop models into `assets/models/generated/` and import them.
+- [x] Load the generated props in `WorldBuilder` with a procedural fallback when the GLB is
+      missing.
+
+## Controls, Movement and NPC Selection
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (v0.3.0 working tree). The windowed smoke now covers wheel cycling and
+right-click clearing; the headless suite passes 177/177.
+
+- [x] Record the re-evaluated control model as ADR-0011.
+- [x] Rank focus candidates by view angle then distance (`NpcFocus.rank_indices`) instead of
+      insertion order.
+- [x] Add mouse-wheel target cycling next to `Tab`, right-click clearing focus, and a `Shift`
+      precision walk speed.
+- [x] Show the nearby-candidate count and the cycle hint in the HUD.
+- [x] Cover ranking, cycling and walk speed with tests, then re-run the windowed smoke.
+
+## Web Export Build Target
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (v0.3.0). Headless **181/181**; `godot --headless --export-release "Web"`
+produces a 63 MB static bundle and it serves locally with HTTP 200s for html/wasm/pck.
+
+- [x] Add a `Web` preset to `export_presets.cfg` using `variant/thread_support=false` so the
+      build runs on plain static hosting without COOP/COEP headers.
+- [x] Export to `build/web/` and package `build/step-line-web-<version>.zip` from
+      `tools/build_releases.sh` (zip or Python fallback).
+- [x] Publish the web zip with the desktop artifacts (`tools/publish_release.sh`).
+- [x] Cover the preset, the non-threaded choice, and the release wiring in
+      `src/test/tests/test_web_export.gd`.
+- [x] Document the artifact in `docs/RELEASING.md`, the README gallery/status, and `PLAN.md`.
+
+## Prop Texture Atlas
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (v0.3.1). Headless **182/182**, Python tooling **53/53**; screenshots
+regenerated and `screen_designs.py compare` still reports 6 good / 0 bad.
+
+- [x] `model_pipeline.atlas_for()` packs each prop's palette roles into one small power-of-two
+      PNG and a matching metallic/roughness atlas (roughness in G, metallic in B), with nearest
+      sampling so a palette cell stays a flat colour.
+- [x] `build_glb()` merges every part into a single primitive with per-vertex atlas UVs and one
+      material (`baseColorTexture` + `metallicRoughnessTexture`), so a prop is one draw material
+      instead of one per part.
+- [x] `audit_glb()` checks the single-material/atlas contract (one material, both textures,
+      TEXCOORD_0 on every primitive, two images).
+- [x] Tests: atlas determinism and power-of-two sizing, UV range, palette override reaching the
+      atlas, and a Godot test that each imported prop scene uses exactly one material.
+- [x] Removed the now-unused sRGB→linear factor helpers (colours travel in the sRGB texture).
+
+## Complete AI Mockup Set
+
+Completed 2026-10-31 (v0.3.2). All 19 catalogue screens now have an AI reference; Python
+tooling **53/53**.
+
+- [x] Generated mockups for the seven entries that only had wireframes: wand screening,
+      Joke Shop queue, TV Studio arrival, crowd panic, responder arrival, body-camera
+      timeline, escalation HUD.
+- [x] `generate` loads `.env` like `judge` already did, so `--ai` works without exporting
+      `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` by hand.
+- [x] Verified every reference is 1280x720, reviewed the new images visually, and confirmed
+      `list` reports 19 designs (12 kept, 7 new).
+
+## Staged Captures For The New Screens
+
+Completed 2026-11-01 (v0.3.3). `screen_designs.py compare` reports **9 good / 0 bad**;
+vision judge: wand **match** (0.90), timeline **match** (1.00), escalation **review**, 0 diff.
+Python tooling **53/53**, headless **182/182**.
+
+- [x] `capture_screenshots.gd` now continues past the night set: switches to The Joke Shop,
+      stages a guest, retries the wand until it alerts (falls back to the documented keys
+      false alarm), applies formal warning + blocking, and opens the body-camera timeline.
+- [x] New captures `07-wand-screening.png`, `08-escalation-hud.png`, `09-body-camera-timeline.png`
+      added to `docs/screenshots/` and to the README gallery.
+- [x] Wired `ref` for `wand_screening`, `escalation_hud` and `body_camera_timeline` so
+      `compare` and `judge` include them (9 of 19 screens now have a staged capture).
+- [x] Regenerated the escalation HUD mockup as a third-person over-the-shoulder night shot so
+      the reference matches the game camera.
+- [x] Added `Hud.clear_log()` so staged captures drop target-cycling noise; the escalation shot
+      keeps the real reaction lines.
+
+## Prop Collision And Placement
+
+Completed 2026-11-01 (v0.4.0). Headless **187/187**, Python tooling **53/53**, the new
+`smoke_props.gd` passes windowed, and `screen_designs.py compare` still reports 9 good / 0 bad.
+
+- [x] Every generated prop now gets a fitted static collider: a cylinder for bollard, bin, and
+      hydrant, a box for everything else. The collider is computed from the model's mesh bounds in
+      holder-local space, so placement rotation and variant scale carry over.
+- [x] Added `smoke_props.gd` (windowed): the guard walks into a bench and stops instead of passing
+      through it; a guest heading for a point beyond the same bench routes around it with
+      navigation avoidance and never ends up inside the collider.
+- [x] Props publish a `NavigationObstacle3D` footprint, and `NpcAvatar` enables agent avoidance with
+      a `velocity_computed` callback. The navmesh stays a flat walkable plane; avoidance does the
+      steering around street furniture.
+- [x] Replaced the hard-coded prop calls with `WorldBuilder.PROP_PLACEMENTS`, grouped by entrance,
+      mid-block, and curb zones, with a static `placement_problems()` validator for bounds,
+      overlap/min-spacing, duplicates, and the door/steps/guest-lane exclusions.
+- [x] Deterministic variants per placement (`variant_for`): yaw jitter, subtle scale, and optional
+      procedural clutter (bag by the bin, crate by the newspaper boxes, cone by the hydrant), so
+      repeated props stop looking cloned.
+- [x] Fallback primitive props go through the same bounds fit, so a missing `.glb` cannot silently
+      remove collision; a unit test covers the fallback body, shape, width, and navigation obstacle.
+- [x] Tests: placement validation and its failure modes, variant determinism/range, colliders on
+      every placed prop (including obstacle presence), and the fallback collider path.

+  aim-free selection with wheel cycling and Shift precision walk (ADR-0011/0012), and a **Web**
+  export target. `export_presets.cfg` gains a `Web` preset with `variant/thread_support=false`
+  (static hosting, no COOP/COEP); `tools/build_releases.sh` exports `build/web/` and zips it to
+  `build/step-line-web-<ver>.zip`, and `publish_release.sh` uploads it. Covered by
+  `src/test/tests/test_web_export.gd`.
+- **Prop atlas (v0.3.1):** `model_pipeline.atlas_for()` builds a per-prop power-of-two PNG with
+  one 8×8 cell per palette role, plus a metallic/roughness atlas (G=roughness, B=metallic). The
+  GLB merges all parts into one primitive with constant per-vertex UVs (cell centre) and a single
+  material (`baseColorTexture` + `metallicRoughnessTexture`, NEAREST sampling). Colours are sRGB in
+  the texture, so the old `srgb_to_linear`/`_linear_rgba` helpers were removed. `audit_glb` fails
+  if a prop is not exactly one material or misses TEXCOORD_0/images.
+- **Mockups complete (v0.3.2):** `docs/screens/designs/` holds AI references for all 19
+  catalogue screens. Only the six staged captures (01–06) are compared/judged; the other 13
+  have no `capture`, so adding staged captures for the wand panel, timeline and escalation HUD
+  would extend automated visual checks. `generate` now calls `_load_env_file()`.
+- **Staged captures (v0.3.3):** `capture_screenshots.gd` now emits nine shots. States 7–10 switch
+  to The Joke Shop at elapsed 620 s (EVENING has routine spawns; LATE has none), retry the wand
+  until it alerts, then jump to 760 s after staging for night lighting. The timeline needs
+  `recorder.close_all_open()`, because `to_dict()` only lists closed incidents. The escalation
+  HUD mockup is third-person now; `judge` still classes it `review` (no diff).
+- **Prop collision (v0.4.0):** `_add_prop_model()` fits a `StaticBody3D` from the model bounds
+  (cylinder for bollard/bin/hydrant, box otherwise) and adds a `NavigationObstacle3D`; NPC agents
+  enable avoidance and move with the safe velocity from `velocity_computed`. The navmesh stays a
+  flat plane, so avoidance (not a baked mesh) routes guests around props. Placements live in
+  `PROP_PLACEMENTS` with `placement_problems()` validation; variants come from `variant_for(index)`.
+  `smoke_props.gd` must be windowed because the guard reads captured-mouse input.
+- **Presentation pass remaining (TODO):** NPC characters and player movement. Grounding facts: the
+  NPC rig is rigid capsules with a whole-limb swing, and `guard_controller.gd` uses one `accel`
+  value. Each task should get its own windowed smoke or capture where it changes feel/looks.
+- **Backlog complete:** every planned TODO section is done and moved to `DONE.md`; `TODO.md`
+  now only lists optional future ideas (live 3D replay, NPC LOD, more venues, real audio, prop
+  atlas, AI mockups for the new catalogue entries, image-to-mesh props). GUT was consciously not
+  adopted (custom runner covers it without an editor plugin).
 - Do not re-open `override_access`. Do not bind wand to `W`. Do not remove the radio easter egg.
 
 ## Current State
+
+- **v0.3.0 pass (2026-10-31, uncommitted):** rendering, generated prop models, screen
+  catalogue, aim-free selection. See ADR-0011 (selection) and ADR-0012 (materials/props).
+  - `src/game/materials.gd` (`SurfaceMaterials`) is now the single source of surface
+    recipes + `configure_environment()`. `GameManager.PHASE_LIGHTING` gained
+    `exposure/glow/fog_color/fog_density/fog_energy/contrast/saturation/ambient_energy`.
+    Renderer is **GL Compatibility**, so SSAO/SSIL are unavailable; glow+fog+ACES are used
+    instead and unsupported settings are ignored rather than gated in code.
+  - World: scaled brick (uv 22,10), framed windows with per-window night emission
+    (`i % 3 != 2` lit), stone base course, door trim/handles, curb, lane dashes (the old
+    loop had `Vector3(i * 0.0, …)` and stacked every dash at x=0), street lamps use the
+    metal profile. The two flat planters that clipped the steps were removed.
+  - `tools/model_pipeline.py` builds `assets/models/generated/*.glb` (bollard, bench,
+    trash_bin, planter_box, newspaper_box, fire_hydrant) from box/cylinder specs;
+    `WorldBuilder._add_prop_model()` loads them with a procedural fallback and records
+    `loaded_models` / `fallback_props`. **Gotcha:** glTF `baseColorFactor` is LINEAR —
+    writing sRGB made every prop pastel; `srgb_to_linear()` is applied in `build_glb`.
+    **Gotcha:** a new/changed `.glb` needs `godot --headless --path . --import` before
+    `ResourceLoader.exists()` / `load()` sees it (test_generated_props fails otherwise).
+  - `model_pipeline.py concept` (OpenRouter, reads repo `.env`) writes per-prop concept
+    sheets to `assets/models/concepts/`; `dominant_colors()` centre-crops and weights by
+    saturation (a grey studio backdrop otherwise wins), `assign_roles()` maps colours by
+    hue/value. Delete a concept file to fall back to the catalogue palette.
+  - NPC avatars: `outfit_for(type, seed)` (pure) gives shirt/trousers/hair/skin +
+    accessory (cap, hood, backpack, sunglasses, lanyard) and height scale; `_arms` and
+    `_legs` now swing (`limb_swing`) while walking. Keep `Rig/Head` named for focus.
+  - Selection: `NpcFocus.rank_indices` (angle then distance) — `pick_index` = first.
+    `GuardController.cycle_target(direction)` walks nearest-first `nearby_candidates()` and
+    sets `target_pinned`, which makes `_update_target()` skip the cone. `clear_target()`
+    sets `focus_suppress_s = 0.75` so the cone does not instantly re-acquire the person.
+    New input actions `walk_slow` (Shift), `cycle_target_next` / `cycle_target_prev`
+    (wheel down / up). Right click with nothing open clears focus (Esc still pauses).
+  - HUD: `nearby_label` + `set_nearby_hint(count)` show `hud.nearby`; `hud.controls` and
+    `hud.targeting` mention the wheel and Shift.
+  - `tools/screen_designs.py`: catalogue now 19 screens (added wand_screening,
+    joke_shop_queue, studio_arrival, crowd_panic, responder_arrival,
+    body_camera_timeline, escalation_hud), new `list` command, `generate --only/--force`
+    (existing designs are kept by default so a draft run cannot clobber AI mockups),
+    and `judge --dry-run` no longer raises `KeyError: 'class'`.
+  - Screenshot tool leak: `capture_screenshots.gd` intermittently prints
+    `ObjectDB instances leaked at exit`. Verified against a `git worktree` of HEAD~ — the
+    baseline leaks more often (3/3 vs 1/3), so it is a pre-existing quit-timing artifact,
+    not a regression. Normal boots are clean.

+- **PLAN verbs (2026-10-31, uncommitted):** the radial now has 12 slices
+  (`Stop, Look, Point, No, Ask, Inspect, Wand, Warn, Block, Reason, Recognize, Radio`).
+  `eye_contact` reuses the Level 1 reaction table via `_apply_interaction`. Recognition is a player
+  decision: `NPCController.player_recognized` + `IncidentRecorder.add_access_evidence`, and
+  `GameManager._artifacts_for()` prepends a `RECOGNITION` artifact only after the player declares
+  it. The body camera is a real flag (`GameManager.body_camera_on`, `Hud.set_body_camera`), off by
+  default, `B` toggles it, and a formal warning arms it and writes a `body_camera` incident event.
+  Blocking also calls `_station_between()` to physically place the guard 0.9 m from the NPC toward
+  the entrance. `_request_reason()` logs the NPC's seeded `dialogue_lines` pick.
+- **NPC navigation was dead (fixed 2026-10-31):** avatars never moved in the live game, for three
+  stacked reasons. (1) `agent.target_position` was re-assigned every physics frame, which
+  invalidates the path so `get_next_path_position()` keeps returning the current point — only set
+  it when the target changes. (2) Nav path points sit on the navmesh plane (y=0) while bodies stand
+  at y≈0.5, so a 3D "are we there" test always looked 0.5 m away and the horizontal direction was
+  zero — compare horizontally. (3) `path[0]` is the old start point, so picking any point "far
+  enough away" can pick the point behind you and oscillate — pick the first point that is
+  **closer to the goal** than the current position. `_nav_try_frames`/`_move_direct` fallback is
+  still there.
+- **Crowd reactions listen on the EventBus:** `CrowdSystem.apply_event()` emits
+  `event_bus.crowd_changed`; its own `changed` signal is never emitted. `GameManager._connect_crowd()`
+  therefore connects to `coordinator.event_bus.crowd_changed` (reconnect after every
+  `coordinator.setup()`, which recreates both crowd and event bus).
+- **Crowd presentation:** `NpcAvatar.start_rubberneck(at)` (idle bystanders away from the door stop
+  and face the incident for 12 s) and `start_flee(from)` (panic: walk away at 2.4 m/s, then free
+  themselves). Someone `awaiting_interaction` within 3 m of the door is "engaged" and does not
+  rubberneck. Use `position` (not `global_position`) for that distance check so it also works in
+  headless tests outside the tree.
+- **Perf:** a busy 16-NPC entrance measured ~1.2 ms/frame (824 fps with vsync off, 800 samples),
+  so LOD/culling is not warranted at `MAX_LIVE_NPCS = 16`. Re-measure before raising the cap.
+- **Incident recording was dead:** `IncidentRecorder.start_incident()` was never called, so every
+  `add_event`/`add_access_evidence` silently no-opped and the review always showed 0 incidents.
+  `_begin_incident()` now starts one per focused NPC (`has_open_incident()` guard), verbs call
+  `_ensure_incident()`, and `ShiftCoordinator._finish_shift()` closes leftovers as `unresolved`
+  before building the review.
+- **Editor-ready venues (2026-10-31):** `tools/export_venues.gd` (a SceneTree script) saves the
+  three factory scenarios to `content/venues/<id>.tres` with `ResourceSaver`; the `.tres` files
+  round-trip through `ResourceLoader` (events, profiles, policy, shift phases, door lines,
+  locations). `test_venue_resources.gd` also fails if the exported files are missing or stale
+  relative to the factory, so re-run the export after changing `ScenarioFactory`.
+- **Vision judge (2026-10-31):** `python3 tools/screen_designs.py judge` sends the capture plus
+  its concept mockup to a vision model (`DEFAULT_JUDGE_MODEL = google/gemini-2.5-flash-lite`,
+  override with `--model`; `openai/gpt-4o-mini` also works). Reads the repo `.env` via
+  `_load_env_file()` (never overrides real env). Verdicts are classed `match` / `review`
+  (mismatch below `--fail-confidence`, default 0.6) / `diff` (confident mismatch → exit 1) /
+  `unknown`. `--dry-run`, `--json`, `--only` supported. The prompt explicitly ignores art style,
+  because the references are stylised mockups; the live run gave 3 match, 3 review, 0 diff.
+  Python tests: `cd tools && python3 -m unittest test_asset_pipeline test_screen_designs`.
+- **String formatting safety (2026-10-31):** `Strings.placeholder_count()` counts `%` specs
+  (ignoring `%%`), `fmt()` warns and returns the template when the arg count does not match
+  (instead of raising an engine error), and `validate()` lints the table for trailing `%`,
+  unsupported conversions, and mixed positional/sequential placeholders. Tests cover all three
+  plus a formatting pass over every placeholder key with type-correct dummy args.
+- **Authored scenario content (2026-10-31):** events can now carry `hint` (a string key logged
+  when the avatar spawns), `extra_spawns` (celebrity arrivals pull in tourists/influencers via
+  `_spawn_npc` with `kind: routine`), and `refuses_screening` (copied to
+  `NPCController.refuses_screening`; `_toggle_wand_screening` logs `wand.refused`, records a
+  `wand_refused` event, applies a small prop hit, and does not open the panel). `film_boundary`
+  is a new intent that maps to `steps_end` so the influencer stands past the posted line.
+- **Accessibility (2026-10-31):** escalation text is `"<name>  [###--] L3/5"` via
+  `Hud.escalation_meter(level)` (pure, tested) so the cue survives grayscale. HUD font scale uses
+  `add_theme_font_size_override` on the core labels (`set_font_scale`), **not** `Control.scale`,
+  which pushed the right-anchored clock label off-screen. Settings load before `_build_ui()`, so
+  `_ready()` re-applies player settings after the HUD exists.
+- **Audio (2026-10-31):** `AudioFeedback.start_crowd_bed()` builds a 4 s looping `AudioStreamWAV`
+  (one-pole-filtered noise + 68/103 Hz drone, seeded) and `set_crowd_level(mood)` maps 0..1 to
+  -34..-12 dB. `play_radio_open/close` push short filtered-noise bursts. All procedural; with a
+  dummy (headless) audio server the calls are no-ops. `_free_player()` returns null when `_ready`
+  has not run (tests), and callers handle null.
+- **NPC theater (2026-10-31):** `NpcAvatar.theater_pose()` maps `intent` + `arrived` to
+  idle/sit/photo/film/perform. Pure helpers `crouch_for_pose`, `prop_lift_for_pose`,
+  `sway_for_pose` keep the math testable. Sit lowers the rig by 0.34 and swings the legs forward
+  (negative X pitch; positive looked like kneeling). `_photo_prop` is set for influencer/tourist
+  cameras, `_sign_prop` for protester/performer boards; their base Y values are captured at build
+  time so the animation offsets from rest.
+- **Body-camera timeline (2026-10-31):** `src/game/ui/event_timeline.gd` flattens
+  `review.incidents.incidents[].events` into one time-ordered list (`flatten`), formats each row
+  with `describe`, and steps with Left/Right or the buttons. `ShiftCoordinator.started_at_ms`
+  gives the review an absolute start for mm:ss stamps. `GameManager._open_timeline` hides the
+  review dim (two stacked overlays made the screen nearly black) and `_timeline_from_review`
+  restores it on close. Smoke: `src/test/smoke_timeline.gd`.
+- **Radio dispatch was dead after the first shift:** `coordinator.setup()` builds a new
+  `RadioSystem`, so the `responder_arrived` connection made in `_ready` was lost on every venue
+  switch/restart (responders never resolved anything). `_connect_radio()` now re-wires it next to
+  `_connect_crowd()` after every setup. Same class of bug as the crowd signal.
+- **Emergency aftermath:** `ShiftCoordinator.responder_outcomes` / `investigations` feed the review.
+  `evacuation` (emergency call, low danger, no weapon) locks the door, makes every NPC flee, marks
+  them `leave_requested`, and applies a `security_failure` hit. An emergency placed while
+  `current_npc_truth` has no weapon and `danger_level <= 1` appends an investigation note, records
+  `investigation_opened`, and applies `false_report` -6.
+- **Skyline backdrop (2026-10-31):** `PlaneMesh` defaults to a **horizontal** XZ plane — set
+  `mesh.orientation = PlaneMesh.FACE_Z` or the "backdrop" renders as a band overhead. The skyline
+  is now a ring of four 400x60 planes at 200 m (center y=30, so building bases meet the ground),
+  `TEXTURE_FILTER` default, `TRANSPARENCY_ALPHA_SCISSOR` with threshold **0.5** (0.3 left faint
+  mip dashes across the sky), unshaded with a lifted albedo (`Color(2.6,2.7,3.0)`) so it is not
+  pure black. Ground is 500x500 so no sky gap shows under the buildings. The `skyline.png` import
+  needs `mipmaps/generate=true`.
 - **Asset gotcha:** `assets/textures/game_ready/` is *not* imported (no `.import`). Use the
   imported `assets/textures/skyline.png` path. Untracked duplicate folder should not be referenced.
-- Host sign-in follow-up remains deferred. PLAN.md + ADRs 0007–0010 still describe the intended UX.
+- Host sign-in follow-up is **done**: `REQUIRE_SIGNIN_VIEW = false` in `/etc/gitea/app.ini`
+  (backup `app.ini.bak-*` alongside), Gitea restarted; anonymous repo page/API return 200 and
+  release assets download in full. Reverse by setting it back to `true` and restarting.
+- **Release publishing was broken since v0.2.2 (fixed 2026-10-31):** `publish_release.sh`
+  only built `AUTH` in the `GITEA_TOKEN` branch; the `~/.git-credentials` branch set `CRED`
+  and then used unbound `${AUTH[@]}` under `set -u`, so every API call failed and the tag
+  job ended "could not create or find release". The repo also has **no** `GITEA_TOKEN`
+  secret (`/actions/secrets` is empty) and the runner has no git credentials. Fixes: the
+  script sets `AUTH=(-u "$CRED")`; the workflow falls back to `github.token`
+  (`secrets.GITEA_TOKEN || github.token`) — but `github.token` is **not** provided by this
+  Gitea/act runner, so the env dump showed no token and the v0.2.10 tag build failed again.
+  Final fix: `publish_release.sh` falls back to the **local git extraheader** that
+  `actions/checkout` writes (`git config --local --get-regexp '^http\..*\.extraheader$'`),
+  which carries the runner's basic-auth credentials for the same server. Verified locally by
+  adding that extraheader and publishing v0.2.10 (all five artifacts). **v0.2.9 and v0.2.10
+  are published**; v0.2.4–v0.2.8 tags have no artifacts. Verify the CI path on the next tag.

+  releases were restored from the local `build/` artifacts and verified (4 and 5 assets).
+  `git.allucanget.biz` runs on this host as user `zwitschi`; root@192.168.88.30 is **not**

+  (`/dev/mapper/pve-vm--500--disk--0`, 7.8G, 100%, 0 free). `git push` then failed too
+  ("unpacker error"). Unblocked by deleting the superseded **v0.2.0** and **v0.2.9** releases
+  via the API (~565 MB of assets), then publishing v0.2.11 locally with the fixed script

+## Rendering, Models, and Selection (v0.3.0 pass)
+
+Decisions: [ADR-0011](docs/adr/0011-aim-free-selection-and-precision-walk.md) aim-free selection and precision walk, [ADR-0012](docs/adr/0012-surface-materials-and-generated-props.md) surface materials and generated props.
+
+The blockout look and the aim-first selection model were the two biggest gaps left by the control pass. This pass closes them without changing the game's rules.
+
+**Look.** Surfaces get real profiles instead of stock materials: brick is rough and finely tiled, concrete is rougher still, asphalt is smoother and damp-looking, glass is smooth and slightly metallic. The environment gains ACES tonemapping, soft glow, aerial fog and a mild grade, all driven by the same per-phase configuration that already moves the sun and sky. The facade gains framed windows that light up after dark, a stone base course, door trim and handles. Street furniture becomes real geometry: bollards, benches, bins, planters, newspaper boxes and a hydrant, built as `.glb` props by `tools/model_pipeline.py` with a procedural fallback. NPCs get per-role clothing palettes, small role accessories (cap, hood, backpack, sunglasses, lanyard), hands, shoes, and an arm/leg walk swing. The rule stays: the player judges people from clothes, props and behaviour, never from an archetype label.
+
+**Models.** Prop meshes are deterministic primitives, so the build works offline. An image model can supply the per-prop colour palette from a concept sheet; that is the only AI influence on geometry, and it is optional. Colours are converted from sRGB to linear before they reach glTF, because glTF factors are linear.
+
+**Selection.** The focus cone ranks heads by angle from the crosshair then distance. `Tab` and the mouse wheel cycle nearby people nearest-first and pin the choice, so aim-free play works. Right click clears focus and briefly suppresses re-acquisition. Holding `Shift` walks at half speed for close work at the door. Escape keeps its single meaning (close the top panel, otherwise pause).
+
 ## Design Direction
 
 The game should feel like a tense workplace simulation with occasional crisis moments. The most satisfying outcome is not overpowering an NPC; it is recognizing the situation early and resolving it calmly.

 The audit classifies measurable fit issues as `good` or `bad` based on role-specific dimensions, aspect ratio, alpha requirements, and tile-edge continuity. It lists perspective/projection as a visual review item because image semantics cannot be judged reliably by these deterministic checks.
 
+### Prop models
+
+Street furniture (bollards, benches, bins, planters, newspaper boxes, a hydrant)
+is real 3D geometry generated by `tools/model_pipeline.py` and written to
+`assets/models/generated/*.glb`. Godot imports each file as a `PackedScene`, and
+`WorldBuilder` instantiates it with a procedural fallback when the model or its
+import is missing, so the world still builds on a fresh checkout.
+
+```bash
+# Print the catalogue (parts, triangle count, whether a model/concept exists)
+python3 tools/model_pipeline.py list
+
+# Rebuild the models (deterministic, offline) and validate them
+python3 tools/model_pipeline.py build
+python3 tools/model_pipeline.py audit
+
+# Optional: an image model supplies the colour palette per prop
+# (requires OPENROUTER_API_KEY; the repo .env is read automatically)
+python3 tools/model_pipeline.py concept
+python3 tools/model_pipeline.py concept --only bench --force
+```
+
+Each prop is a small list of boxes and cylinders, so `build` needs no network and
+the output is byte-identical between runs. `concept` asks an image model for a
+studio-style reference; `dominant_colors` and `assign_roles` then map that image's
+colours onto material roles (darkest → metal, warm saturated → wood, light grey →
+stone, green → foliage). glTF stores colours in linear space, so the tool converts
+the sRGB palettes before writing them. Re-run `build` and `godot --headless
+--path . --import` after changing a prop. See
+[ADR-0012](docs/adr/0012-surface-materials-and-generated-props.md).
+
+Surface materials share one definition in `src/game/materials.gd`: named
+roughness/metallic profiles per surface, plus the environment tune-up (ACES
+tonemapping, glow, fog, colour grading) that the phase lighting applies.
+
+### Screen design references
+
+Screen mockups and screenshot comparison use `tools/screen_designs.py`. It turns the
+screen descriptions in `docs/` (README captions, ADRs 0007–0010, `PLAN.md`, and
+`architecture.md`) into reference images under `docs/screens/designs/`, then uses
+those images as the expected state to check the game's captures.
+
+Each screen is tagged `scene` (a realistic first-person 3D world view) or `ui`
+(an in-game panel overlaid on a softened scene), and the generator appends a
+shared art-direction suffix so the frames read as one coherent game. Requests use
+a 3:2 landscape source and crop to the 16:9 capture dimensions.
+
+```bash
+# Export the built-in scenarios to editor-authorable .tres resources
+godot --headless --path . --script res://tools/export_venues.gd
+
+# List the catalogue (name, kind, whether a reference design exists)
+python3 tools/screen_designs.py list
+
+# Deterministic wireframes (offline, no API key); existing designs are kept
+# unless --force is passed, so an offline run never replaces an AI mockup
+python3 tools/screen_designs.py generate --draft
+python3 tools/screen_designs.py generate --draft --only wand --force
+
+# Realistic 3D scenes and in-game screen designs via OpenRouter
+# (requires OPENROUTER_API_KEY)

+```
+
+The catalogue covers 19 screens: the nine README captures plus the start menu,
+pause overlay, settings, shift review, radial menu, emergency radio, wand
+screening, Joke Shop queue, TV Studio arrival, crowd panic, responder arrival,
+body-camera timeline, and the escalation HUD. All 19 have an AI reference in
+`docs/screens/designs/`; the nine screens with staged captures are also compared
+or judged against the running game.
+
+`compare` flags gross drift: wrong aspect ratio, undersized frame, near-blank
+frame, and large layout/palette/detail distance. It is a regression gate, not a
+semantic judge — pixel and perceptual metrics cannot decide whether a frame's
+composition is *right*.
+
+`judge` covers that gap: it sends each capture together with its concept mockup to
+a vision model and asks whether the capture realises the same screen and layout
+intent. Art style, fidelity, fonts, and placeholder text are explicitly ignored.
+Verdicts are classed as `match`, `review` (a mismatch below `--fail-confidence`,
+default 0.6 — expected when a concept mockup is more stylised than the game), or
+`diff` (a confident mismatch, which exits non-zero). Regenerate the designs after changing screen layout, then re-run
+`compare` after regenerating the game screenshots with
+`src/test/capture_screenshots.gd`.

 - Assets pass: authored textures in `assets/textures/` (brick facade, concrete, asphalt, awning, skyline, vignette, HUD icons, access-card art) generated by `tools/generate_textures.py`, soft sun shadows, humanoid NPC rigs with archetype props + procedural walk bob and attention head-turn, inspection artifact cards, escalation vignette, mode icons, and a body-camera overlay (REC + shift clock)
+- Rendering pass (v0.3.0 work, [ADR-0012](docs/adr/0012-surface-materials-and-generated-props.md)): one material module with roughness/metallic profiles per surface, ACES tonemapping, glow, aerial fog and colour grading driven by the shift phase, correctly scaled brick, framed facade windows that light up at night, door trim and handles, a curb and lane dashes, and the glowing marquee/lamp bulbs. NPCs gained per-role clothing palettes, caps/hoods/backpacks/sunglasses/lanyards, hands and shoes, and an arm/leg walk swing
+- Prop collision and placement (v0.4.0): every prop fits a static collider from its mesh bounds and publishes a navigation obstacle, so the guard and guests cannot walk through benches, bins, or bollards; placements are grouped into zones with a validator, and deterministic variants add rotation, scale, and small clutter
+- Prop atlas (v0.3.1): `tools/model_pipeline.py` packs each prop's palette into one power-of-two colour atlas plus a metallic/roughness atlas and emits a single material with per-vertex UVs, so a prop is one draw material rather than one per part; `audit` enforces the contract
+- Generated prop models (v0.3.0 work): `tools/model_pipeline.py` builds bollards, benches, bins, planters, newspaper boxes and a hydrant as `.glb` props with per-part materials, loaded by `WorldBuilder` with a procedural fallback; the optional AI concept step (`model_pipeline.py concept`) supplies per-prop colour palettes

+30. The shift review's "Body camera timeline" button steps through the recorded events (Left/Right or the buttons) and Esc returns to the review.
+31. The escalation label shows a `[###--] L3/5` shape meter as well as the level name, and stays readable in grayscale.
+32. Changing "HUD font scale" in Settings resizes the HUD text and persists across a restart.
+33. When the shift timer reaches 0, the shift review screen shows grade, incident summary, responder outcomes, investigations, and persisted shift history; "Run another shift" returns to the venue menu.

 # TODO
 
-Godot 4.3 prototype. Release **v0.2.2** is tagged from the session-shell commit; CI builds the
+Godot 4.3 prototype. Latest release **v0.4.0** (prop collision, placement, variants). Headless
-installers and AppImage. Headless suite **88/88**, plus `smoke_session_shell.gd` and the windowed
+suite **187/187** plus **53** Python tooling tests; the session, PLAN-verb, crowd, emergency,
-focus/radial smoke.
+timeline, audio, scenario-content, props, and windowed focus/radial smokes pass. Anonymous
+downloads are enabled on the host.
 
-Host `REQUIRE_SIGNIN_VIEW` stays deferred.
+The sections below are the rest of the presentation pass: prop pipeline checks, NPC characters,
+and player movement. Each task is meant to be a small, reviewable slice with its own verification.
 
-## Remaining PLAN verbs (radial exists)
+## Better Props
 
-- [ ] Eye contact as a Level 1 action (PLAN / glossary). Distinct from raise-hand. Add a
+### Pipeline and checks
-      radial slice if it ships.
-- [ ] "I recognize this person" is a player decision recorded as evidence, not a pre-attached
-      artifact on every staff/guest type. Staff still auto-recognize when `override_access` is
-      empty (`AccessLoadout`).
-- [ ] Formal warning can activate the body-camera / security-light flag (PLAN Level 2). Overlay
-      is currently always on; toggling should write an incident event.
-- [ ] Blocking stations the guard between the person and the door (PLAN Level 3). Today it only
-      sends `apply_player_action(BLOCKING)`.
-- [ ] "Request reason for entry" as a Level 3 ask, with a short NPC reply from `dialogue_lines`.
 
-## Crowd presentation
+- [ ] Extend `audit_glb()` with a triangle budget, degenerate-triangle test, `TEXCOORD_0` inside
+      the atlas, minimum-y ≈ 0, and a material-count check per prop.
+- [ ] Add a `prop_gallery` capture to `capture_screenshots.gd` (each prop close-up on a plain
+      backdrop) and wire it to `screen_designs.py` so prop regressions show up in `compare`.
+- [ ] Verify all prop instances share their imported material (no per-instance duplication) and
+      keep a documented triangle/vertex budget in the pipeline docstring.
+- [ ] Update the README prop list and the `model_pipeline.py` catalogue docs when new props land.
 
-`CrowdSystem` is a mood/attention float. PLAN wants people watching, gathering, and panicking.
+## Better NPC Characters
 
-- [ ] On `aggressive_behavior` / `emergency_responder`, nearby idle NPCs stop and face the
+### Appearance and rig
-      incident (rubberneck). On `crowd_panic`, they move away from the door.
-- [ ] Profile a busy entrance with textured materials and props; add LOD or culling for distant
-      NPCs if frame time drops.
 
-## Emergency aftermath
+- [ ] Replace the rigid capsule limbs with an articulated rig: shoulder, elbow, hip, and knee
+      joints, so a walk cycle can bend knees and swing arms instead of rotating whole capsules.
+- [ ] Add layered clothing: jacket over shirt, hi-vis vest, security uniform, dress/skirt, and
+      coat, with deterministic per-profile colourways and material roles.
+- [ ] Extend the accessory catalogue: bag, umbrella, phone, camera, clipboard, headphones, and a
+      coffee cup; attach them to the correct hand/back socket.
+- [ ] Add face and hair variety: several hair silhouettes, beards, hats, eye/brow shapes, age and
+      height ranges, and a small set of face textures or decal planes so heads are not identical.
+- [ ] Keep appearance deterministic per `(profile, seed)` and add a test that the same seed
+      produces the same outfit while different types stay recognisable.
 
-Responder outcomes (`command` / `restraint` / `evacuation` / `arrest`) are log lines. PLAN also
+### Animation and staging
-wants evacuation, a closed street, and an investigation when the call was unjustified.
 
-- [ ] `evacuation` outcome actually clears the entrance (NPCs leave, door stays locked).
+- [ ] Add an idle layer: breathing, weight shift, occasional look-around, phone check, and
-- [ ] Unjustified emergency (low danger, no weapon) writes an investigation note on the shift
+      arms-crossed, blended with the current walk and reaction states.
-      review and applies the existing false-report / reputation hit.
+- [ ] Add conversation gestures: facing the guard when addressed, talking hand movement, nodding,
-- [ ] Review copy names the responder outcome, not only battery and crowd %.
+      backing away, and pointing, driven by the existing reaction/escalation events.
+- [ ] Improve the walk cycle: stride length tied to speed, foot planting without sliding, and a
+      distinct hurry/flee gait that matches `FLEE_SPEED`.
+- [ ] Stage a door queue: waiting offsets, one-at-a-time approach, no overlapping capsules, and a
+      step-aside after the admission decision.
+- [ ] Make reactions readable at a distance with body language plus a short icon/label
+      (rubberneck, panic, calm, angry) so crowd state is legible without the debug panel.
 
-## Body-camera replay
+### Performance and budgets
 
-- [ ] Shift review: a timeline of recorded incident events (ADR-0005 already stores them).
+- [ ] Add three LOD tiers (full rig, simplified mesh, billboard) with distance hysteresis, and
-      Scrub or step through; no live 3D replay required in the first version.
+      disable shadows for far tiers; keep the switch deterministic and testable.
+- [ ] Re-measure the live-NPC budget with the full rig at `MAX_LIVE_NPCS`, and add a perf smoke
+      that fails when frame time crosses the documented budget.
+- [ ] Add tests for animation state transitions (idle → walk → react) and for queue spacing at
+      the door.
 
-## NPC theater
+## Better Player Movement
 
-Intents `sit` / `photo` / `film` / `perform` already pick waypoints. ADR-0010 rig (face/hair)
+### Feel and handling
-is in the working tree. Bodies still idle-stand at those spots.
 
-- [ ] Sit pose at `steps_end`. Photo: brief raise of the influencer/tourist prop. Performer
+- [ ] Split acceleration and deceleration in `guard_controller.gd` (faster stop than start, no
-      stays put and plays the hat/sign.
+      ice-skating), then tune `move_speed` and `accel` against a windowed feel pass.
+- [ ] Add step-up assist for kerbs and the entrance steps (about 0.3 m) and keep wall sliding
+      smooth so the guard does not stick on doorframes, railings, or prop colliders.
+- [ ] Add subtle head bob tied to stride and speed, a small FOV change in precision walk, and a
+      landing dip; expose a motion-sickness toggle in settings with persistence.
+- [ ] Give precision walk (Shift) visible feedback: a HUD state chip and an audio tick when it
+      engages, in addition to the slower speed.
+- [ ] Add surface-aware footsteps (concrete, asphalt, stone steps) with stride-synced timing and
+      a distinct landing sound, reusing the procedural audio helpers.
 
-## Audio
+### Input and accessibility
 
-`AudioFeedback` is sine beeps. DONE called that "crowd ambience"; it is not.
+- [ ] Add gamepad support: move/look actions, radial and action bindings, deadzone and look
+      sensitivity, with prompts that follow the active device.
+- [ ] Move the remaining hard-coded keys into `InputMap` actions and persist any remaps through
+      the settings panel (keyboard and gamepad).
+- [ ] Add a mouse-sensitivity and invert-Y setting if missing, and test the values survive a
+      settings save/load round trip.
+- [ ] Add movement tests: acceleration ramp, step-up height limit, precision-walk speed, wall
+      slide, and gamepad deadzone.
+- [ ] Run one windowed movement smoke per change above (walk the full block, climb the steps,
+      strafe along the wall) and capture a short screenshot set for the compare tool.
 
-- [ ] Loop a low crowd bed that rises with `CrowdSystem.mood`.
+## Future ideas (optional, not scheduled)
-- [ ] Radio open/close crackle on the existing radio panel, still headless-safe (no-op without
-      an audio server).
 
-## Accessibility
+- [ ] Live 3D body-camera replay (the timeline is text-only today).
-
+- [ ] Additional venues or seasonal events authored from the new `.tres` files.
-- [ ] Escalation colors that still read in grayscale (shape or label, not hue alone).
+- [ ] Real voice/dialogue audio (the crowd bed and radio crackle are procedural).
-- [ ] HUD font scale in settings.
+- [ ] Swap the primitive prop builder for an image-to-mesh model API behind the same
-
+      `assets/models/generated/<prop>.glb` contract.
-## Scenario content still missing vs PLAN lists
-
-- [ ] Joke Shop: guest on the reservation list without ID; borrowed/mismatched ID; guest
-      refuses wand screening; late arrival during a performance.
-- [ ] Studio: filming-boundary repeat (influencer ignores a posted line); celebrity-arrival
-      crowd spike (more rubberneckers, not only one `arrive` spawn).
-- [ ] Building: "activate body camera" and "request reason" once those verbs exist, used in
-      at least one authored event.
-
-## Distribution follow-up (host config, deferred)
-
-Verified via API+host credentials (2026-10-31):
-
-- [x] Repo is **public** (`private:false`) and account has admin rights.
-- [x] Release `v0.2.1` now carries all five artifacts (portable binaries + NSIS installer +
-      AppImage).
-- [ ] **Remaining host setting**: instance-wide `[service] REQUIRE_SIGNIN_VIEW=true` makes
-      anonymous browsing/downloads redirect to login. Host admin: `REQUIRE_SIGNIN_VIEW = false`
-      under `[service]` in `app.ini`, restart Gitea. Alternative: mirror downloads.
-
-## Open Polish
-
-- [ ] Keep `%` placeholders stable in `Strings.fmt` when adding keys (positional formatting).
-
-## Tooling (when an editor workflow exists)
-
-- [ ] IDE/editor-based GUT integration. Until then the custom headless runner stays.
-- [ ] Optional later: author venues as `.tres` resources instead of `ScenarioFactory` functions.

+# ADR-0011: Aim-free target selection, precision walk, and focus clearing
+
+- **Status:** Accepted
+- **Date:** 2026-10-31
+
+## Context
+
+ADR-0007 and ADR-0008 split input into locomotion, look, and a focus cone. A pass over the resulting controls found four problems in play:
+
+1. **The cone ignored what the player sees.** `NpcFocus.pick_index` returned the first head inside the cone in group order, not the one nearest the crosshair. Two people in the cone gave an arbitrary pick.
+2. **`Tab` cycled in spawn order.** `GameManager._cycle_nearby_target` walked the `npcs` array, so "next" meant "next spawned", not "next nearest".
+3. **A cycled target was dropped within a few frames.** The cone re-evaluated every physics frame and cleared a target that was not under the crosshair after the 8-frame miss grace. Aim-free selection therefore only worked while the player also aimed.
+4. **There was no way to dismiss someone.** `Esc` pauses the shift and right click only cancelled modals.
+
+The movement pass also left one gap at the door: the only walking speed is 3.2 m/s, which overshoots when the player is trying to stand at a register or read an artifact at conversation distance.
+
+## Decision
+
+**Rank the cone by angle, then distance.** `NpcFocus.rank_indices` scores every head by its angle from the camera forward vector and breaks ties by distance; `pick_index` is the first ranked entry. The cone therefore picks the person closest to the crosshair, which is what the player is looking at.
+
+**Make aim-free selection authoritative.** `GuardController.cycle_target(direction)` walks `nearby_candidates()` — everyone within 12 m, nearest first — starting from the current target and wrapping in both directions. The chosen avatar is *pinned*: while a pinned target is alive the cone does not re-evaluate, so `Tab` and the mouse wheel produce a stable selection the player can then act on.
+
+**Bind the mouse wheel to the same ring.** `cycle_target_next` (wheel down) and `cycle_target_prev` (wheel up) are new input actions handled in `GameManager._handle_mouse_button`. `Tab` remains the keyboard path. The HUD prints how many people are in the ring (`hud.nearby`), so the player knows the control exists before they need it.
+
+**Right click clears focus, with a short grace.** With no modal open, right click clears the target and suppresses cone acquisition for `FOCUS_SUPPRESS_S = 0.75 s`. Without the grace the cone re-acquired the same person on the next frame, which made the control feel broken. Any explicit pick (cone or cycle) cancels the suppression.
+
+**Add a precision walk.** Holding `Shift` (`walk_slow`) multiplies the walk speed by `SLOW_WALK_FACTOR = 0.45`. This is a fine-positioning aid, not a sprint: PLAN.md deliberately excludes sprint and crouch, and this does not add a faster move.
+
+Escape keeps its current meaning (close the top modal, otherwise pause). Selection is not overloaded onto the same key.
+
+## Consequences
+
+### Positive
+
+- The focused person is predictable: the one nearest the crosshair, or the one the player explicitly cycled to.
+- Aim-free play works: cycle, act, cycle again, without fighting the cone.
+- Right click has an unambiguous "never mind" meaning while remaining a modal cancel.
+- Standing on a mark while reading an artifact is possible.
+
+### Negative
+
+- Two more input actions and one more piece of guard state (`target_pinned`, `focus_suppress_s`).
+- A cycled target stays selected until the player clears it, acts, or the avatar is freed; it does not expire on its own.
+- The 0.75 s suppression is a feel constant that may need tuning against play testing.
+
+## Follow-up
+
+- The action wheel (ADR-0009) and inspection panels still take `A`/`D`; the wheel owns those keys while it is open, and the guard is frozen then, so no conflict is observable.

+# ADR-0012: Surface material profiles and generated prop models
+
+- **Status:** Accepted
+- **Date:** 2026-10-31
+
+## Context
+
+The procedural street was built from `BoxMesh` primitives with `StandardMaterial3D` defaults: albedo colour (or a texture) and everything else stock. Every surface therefore shared one roughness, street furniture was a set of scaled boxes, and the sky was a flat `ProceduralSkyMaterial` with no tonemapping, glow, or fog. Captures looked like a blockout: brick tiles were metres wide, the sidewalk blew out to white, the facade had no windows, and night mode only switched the lamp bulbs and the marquee.
+
+Two constraints shaped the fix:
+
+- The project renders with the **GL Compatibility** backend so it stays small and portable, which rules out features that only exist in Forward+ (`SSAO`, `SSIL`).
+- The repo must build offline in CI, so any asset step has to work without a network or an API key.
+
+## Decision
+
+**One material module.** `src/game/materials.gd` (`SurfaceMaterials`) owns a named profile table (`brick`, `concrete`, `asphalt`, `awning`, `stone`, `metal`, `painted_metal`, `wood`, `cloth`, `skin`, `glass`, `rubber`) with roughness/metallic pairs, plus the recipes the world and avatars use (`brick()`, `concrete()`, `asphalt()`, `awning()`, `flat()`, `emissive()`, `glass()`, `window_pane()`). The world builder, the NPC avatars, and the prop fallbacks all call it, so a surface has one definition.
+
+**One environment tune-up.** `SurfaceMaterials.configure_environment()` applies ACES tonemapping, soft glow (for the marquee, lamp bulbs, and lit windows), aerial fog, and a mild contrast/saturation lift. `GameManager.PHASE_LIGHTING` now carries the per-phase values (`exposure`, `glow`, `fog_color`, `fog_density`, `fog_energy`, `contrast`, `saturation`, `ambient_energy`) next to the existing sun/sky entries, so a phase change still happens in one place. Features unavailable in Compatibility are ignored by the driver rather than gated in code.
+
+**Generated prop models.** `tools/model_pipeline.py` describes street furniture (bollard, bench, bin, planter, newspaper box, hydrant) as boxes and cylinders and writes binary glTF (`.glb`) into `assets/models/generated/`. Godot imports each file as a `PackedScene`, and `WorldBuilder._add_prop_model()` instantiates it with a procedural fallback when the file or its import is missing. The build is deterministic and needs no network.
+
+**AI only supplies colour.** `model_pipeline.py concept` asks an image model (OpenRouter, same backend as the texture tools) for one studio-style concept per prop. `dominant_colors()` reads the centre of that image and ranks colours by frequency weighted by saturation (a grey backdrop otherwise wins), and `assign_roles()` maps the result onto material roles by hue and value: darkest tone → metal, warm saturated tone → wood, light desaturated tone → stone, green tone → foliage. Colours are converted from sRGB to **linear** before they are written into glTF `baseColorFactor`, because the factor is linear space and writing sRGB made every prop render pastel.
+
+## Consequences
+
+### Positive
+
+- Surfaces read as materials: brick has fine, correctly scaled tiling, asphalt is smoother than brick, glass is smooth and slightly metallic, and the night sky carries warm lit windows.
+- Street furniture is real geometry with per-part materials instead of scaled boxes, and it costs ~700 triangles for the whole set.
+- The prop pipeline works with no key and no network; the concept step is optional and only changes colours.
+- Tests can assert material profiles, environment values, and GLB structure without rendering.
+
+### Negative
+
+- The generated models are low-poly primitives, not sculpted assets; they are an improvement in silhouette, not photoreal props.
+- Two colour spaces now exist in the tooling. `model_pipeline.srgb_to_linear` must be used for every colour written into glTF, which is easy to forget.
+- Concept images are per-prop inputs that have to be regenerated (and reviewed) when the art direction changes; a poor concept now produces a poor palette.
+- Compatibility rendering means no ambient occlusion, so contact shadows rely on the directional light only.
+
+## Follow-up
+
+- A 3D-model API (image-to-mesh) could replace the primitive builder behind the same `assets/models/generated/<prop>.glb` contract without touching `WorldBuilder`.
+- Texture atlases for the props would let them share one material instead of one per part.
