Some checks failed
ci / check (push) Failing after 3s
The maintainer could not tell whether "error", "failure", "finding" or "correction" referred to the game's design, our formalisation of it, the code, the measuring apparatus, or the sentences we wrote. Three review rounds produced twenty-odd defect statements spanning five systems, all called errors. The confusion was ours. specs/Taxonomy.md, grounded in named canon rather than invented here: six strata from Sargent's problem entity / conceptual model / computerized model, extended where a simulation-V&V frame stops — we also own an instrument and an account. The two relations are what was missing: GAME<->MODEL is validation, MODEL<->ENGINE is verification, and nearly every argument about "our bug or their gap" was that distinction going unnamed. Fault/error/failure from Avizienis et al., applied within a stratum, plus the rule that explains the review history: a failure in one stratum is a fault in the next. And it finally defines the family ADR-0018 could only point at — a wrong-subject error is an ACCOUNT failure with no INSTRUMENT fault, which is why tests never catch them. MDA supplies the game-facing layers and one hard limit: our panels measure dynamics, our trial logs sample aesthetics, and a win rate does not answer "is it fun". specs/Positioning.md names the field fairly — Ludii is the closest relative and the right benchmark — and the four differentiators, each already built rather than aspired to. Clay-borg is a design-evidence instrument; anyone can produce the number. Three tracks named and none started: a second game, game theory as the lens on dynamics, and assimilated knowledge about why games work. Track A is the falsifier for the whole positioning: every abstraction here has exactly one instance, which by our own rule may mean invented rather than observed. Chaos window 3 closes at 12 declarations with one override that changed nothing. Its verdict is due and is deliberately not written here. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

clay-borg
A rebuild from scratch simulation and games engine framework set up to assimilate and optimize techniques and implementations useful for games, simulations, robotics.

Running the gates
make all # every gate, from a clean shell
make -C /path/to/clay-borg all # …or from any other directory
There is no environment setup step. No cd, no export PATH, no
activation script. make locates the repo from its own path and cargo
from the standard rustup locations; the Python tools do the same via
tools/repo.py. The only prerequisites are a rustup toolchain and Python
3.11+.
This is deliberate and enforced: make env-test runs every tool from /
with a PATH containing no cargo, and make all includes it. CB-RES-0003
measured 84 agent turns and $15.33 spent prefixing commands with cd and
export PATH before that friction was fixed at the root (CB-WP-0004 T01).
Other useful targets: make cost (spend per task), make cost-budget
(spend since the last commit), make cost-mix (mechanical vs judgment
turns), make loop-lint (executable InnerLoop rules), make self-tests
(every tool's positive control).
GROUND
The first product vertical is a virtual tabletop implementation of GROUND — A Game of Bonds and Rivalry: DARVO Edition. The boardgame itself (rules, editions, content) is at home in the sister repository ground-game — that repo is authoritative for what GROUND is; clay-borg implements the engine that runs it.
