This is the website shelf page for docs/ps1/transition-zero-plan.md. It exists because the project has hundreds of Markdown files and the website should not pretend the interesting work only happened in the polished essays.

Why this file matters

Active PS1 reference. This is active engineering documentation for the PS1 port. It is close enough to the code that stale claims here become real bugs.

100/100 Original-mode scenes: ZERO BSODs, ZERO relief events, ZERO CD retries, max staged hit 37 vb / max cold 57 vb (best numbers of the campaign — most transitions do zero setup CD reads). Root-cause chain resolved across the night: boot-order hole under the SCR cache; the HOLIDAY.PSB sheet re-read+released EVERY setup during holiday windows (the hidden ~43 vb backdrop tax — perf was date-dependent!); frame/ prefetch/scratch hard-release frees defeati…

  • Transition-Zero Plan (post red-team v1)
  • Fix-forward campaign — ledger closed (2026-06-10 early)
  • Fix-forward campaign toward the 23 h soak (2026-06-09 late night)
  • MILESTONE 2 — 2026-06-09 late (W4 certified)
  • W4 landed (2026-06-09 late) — island constants survive custom backdrops
  • MILESTONE 1 — 2026-06-09 (branch ps1-transition-zero-20260609, 22 commits)
  • Ground truth (verified)
  • W5 landed (2026-06-09 night) — boundaries are content now
  • W1 soak confirmation (2026-06-09, final stack)
  • W1 landed (2026-06-09 evening) — staged-path results
  • Measured baselines (2026-06-09, W0 harness, seed 1, verbose schema)
  • Workstreams (priority order)
  • W0. Measurement: scene-pair harness + transition gates (prereq, ~days)
  • W1. Land the loading-waves path properly (the unfinished prerequisite)
