ai.md 228 → 64 lines. It now carries only: what the product is, the build
commands, the architecture table, a "where the truth lives" table, and a
pointer to HANDOFF. No narrative, no status, no duplicated invariants.
AGENTS.md (195 lines) is now the single always-read file:
- the 20 invariants that break output, wipe user data, or ship a legal/trust
breach — one line each, pointing at the doc that explains it (they replace
110 lines of invariant stubs that duplicated docs/ai/*.md verbatim)
- Response style + No-Fluff Mode moved in from ai.md (rules belong in the rules file)
- onboarding is now: HANDOFF → ai.md router → the ONE docs/ai file → dir index;
TASKS.md is read when the question is "what's next", not to write code
- memory rides with the change but is no longer a unit of its own; HANDOFF is
≤40 lines and overwritten, never appended
Anti-rebloat gate: scripts/verify.sh gains step 1/4, a doc-budget check
(AGENTS ≤210, ai ≤100; HANDOFF/TASKS caps land with the queue trim). A commit
that pads a capped file instead of moving detail fails the gate.
schema.md and docs/index.md corrected for the new roles and reading order.
Docs-only unit: scope-check run, no build.
ai.md 1,308 → 228 lines. No prose rewritten: every block was moved as-is so
nothing could be lost in translation, then replaced by a pointer.
New files:
- docs/ai/environment.md — LAN/SSH + Gitea push recipe, Windows dotnet
build/run, test-suite map, hermetic real-MainWindow test rule
- docs/ai/product.md — brand/naming, AI transparency, GPL licensing
prohibitions, free-forever monetization, auth/account assumptions,
packaging & distribution
- docs/ai/youtube-api.md — go-live ordering, the broadcast-binding fix, the
private-only lock, health parsing, end-stream pre-flight, Test mode,
chat insert shape
- docs/ai/overlays.md — social bar, native alert box (animations, clip,
ticker), chat box conventions
- docs/ai/ui-surface.md — control surface, scene strip, preview rail,
hotkeys, broadcast drawer, toasts, transitions, brand logo, launch
geometry, theme/properties conventions
ai.md keeps the response/derivation rules, the architecture table, the four
existing invariant stubs, and one pointer per moved subsystem.
docs/ai/index.md routes every file with a "read when" column.
References falsified by the move were fixed in the same commit: AGENTS.md
build note → environment.md → Run, and the "Related" footers in
frame-pipeline.md / output.md / capture.md now point at the owning files.
Docs-only unit: scope-check run, no build (no source touched).
TASKS.md is now the index (status table, open items, research pointer).
33 files: 32 task files + 1 research facts file. The full take-saga
narrative and all design decisions are preserved verbatim; the catalog
makes the queue readable without opening every task body. Schema and
AGENTS.md updated to reflect the new layout.
Encoder dual-output: StreamEnabled/RecordEnabled/RecordPath options; per-output
ffmpeg block (stream ->flv, record ->mp4); throw unless at least one output.
RecordingFile: auto-name ty-<yyyymmdd>-<start hhmm>-0000.mp4, rename-on-stop to
ty-...-<len hhmmss>.mp4 with numeric-suffix on collision. LayoutStore persists
record folder. MainViewModel: REC/ON-AIR pills, status light, single Start<->End
button (replaces Start/Stop variants), StopStream no longer signs out, explicit
session timer. About overlay widened. Sign In label + spacing before Start.
Tests: 244 passed / 246 (2 pre-existing: AudioPipeline gains-mute, RoundClip).
Build 0 warnings. Scope check clean.
Memory-map correction (derived-solution rule, 2026-08-29): image-shrink recipe was
never recorded when first done, so it was re-derived. Added Derived-solution/recipes
rule to AGENTS.md; MyMistakes.md now a permanent recipes registry (records the
verified WPF-imaging shrink recipe); schema.md rows MyMistakes as registry; ai.md
points to the rule. README hero image replaced: 3.2MB screenshot -> 1400x794 ->
188KB docs/ytLlive-preview.jpg (JPEG q82).
Project lesson cited (the 2026-08 web-box saga, 9 commits): browser sources are fixed canvases
per OBS convention — the 'gap' was a widget CSS glow, not a bug.
- AGENTS.md: auto-read session on-ramp — memory-map reading order, working
rules, build command, and startup-log pointer
- ai.md: Response style section (no default planning boilerplate) plus an
optional, on-demand No-Fluff Mode for ruthless review; never the default
- schema.md: AGENTS.md listed as the always-read first page
