-## Launch prompt
+## Plan
 
-_(launch prompt not captured at claim time)_
+Execute `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-06-04-experience-simulator.md` via
+`superpowers:executing-plans`: build the `simulator/` package — a FastAPI service
+wiring the five dials to the **real** `hef.selection` code and serving a
+vanilla-JS "X-ray" (picked piece + ranked candidate pool with distances +
+brain/mood 5×5 maps), fed by a deterministic synthetic fixture catalog since
+`catalog/library.jsonl` is empty. The only `hef/` change is additive:
+`hef.selection.ranked_candidates()` with `select()` refactored onto it. 7 tasks,
+TDD throughout; Docker + compose + `make` targets package it for localhost.
+
+## Pre-session state
+
+- Clean `main`, synced with `origin/main` at `ddec45d`; 111 tests green, 2 skipped.
+- Memory pointer: simulator spec + BDDs + plan produced in discovery 0003
+  (2026-06-04); next coding session runs `/executing-plans` on the simulator plan.
+- Discovery session **0003** still `--INPROGRESS` (committed its artifacts to main
+  but never finalized) — dormant, not actively editing the tree.
+- `fastapi` not yet installed; `python` not on PATH (use `.venv/bin/python`).
+
+## Turn-by-turn arc
+
+1. **Session gate → coding init.** Classified the `/executing-plans` launch as a
+   coding session; ran `wgl-session-coding-init`. Dry-run peek surfaced the
+   in-flight 0003 placeholder; autonomous default → noted it and proceeded.
+   Claimed session **0004**. Reconciled an initially-stale "ahead 2" read:
+   local `main` == `origin/main` == `ddec45d` (the 0003 spec/BDD/plan commits are
+   on origin). Verified clean baseline: **111 passed, 2 skipped**.
+2. **Plan review.** Read the plan + `hef/selection.py`, `hef/catalog.py`,
+   `pyproject.toml`. Critical review: all assumed symbols exist
+   (`Coordinate`/`Weights`/`distance`/`candidates_for_mode`/`select`,
+   `CONTENT_MODES`/`SELECTOR_MODES`; `Record` carries every fixture field). No
+   blockers. Confirmed Docker present, `docs/USER_GUIDE.md` + `features/` exist.
+3. **Workspace.** `using-git-worktrees` → native `EnterWorktree`
+   (`worktree-experience-simulator`, branched from `origin/main`). Fresh `.venv`
+   in the worktree; base package + pytest installed; baseline re-confirmed
+   **111 passed, 2 skipped**.
+4. **Tasks 1–7, TDD (red → green → commit each):**
+   - **T1** `hef.selection.ranked_candidates()` + `select()` refactored onto it
+     (single source of truth; behavior-preserving) — 24 passed (new + existing
+     selection suite unchanged).
+   - **T2** declare `simulator` package + `[project.optional-dependencies] sim`
+     (fastapi/uvicorn/httpx); installed `-e ".[sim]"`; imports resolve.
+   - **T3** `simulator/fixtures.py` — deterministic 625-cell synthetic catalog
+     (all modes, mixed review status, no media) — 6 passed.
+   - **T4** `simulator/app.py` — FastAPI `create_app`, `POST /api/select`
+     (pick + ranked pool with distance/rank + coverage), `GET /api/catalog/meta`,
+     real-catalog-or-fixtures loader, guarded static mount — 6 passed.
+   - **T5** `simulator/static/` X-ray UI (dials, model knobs, ranked pool,
+     brain/mood maps) + static smoke test — 7 passed. Manual browser eyeball
+     substituted with live `curl` verification (no interactive browser): `/` 200,
+     `/api/catalog/meta` 625 records all-modes/mixed-status, `/api/select` ranked
+     pool ascending distances (1.0 → 1.41…), `none` → void, static assets 200.
+   - **T6** Dockerfile + compose + `Makefile` (literal-tab recipes). First build
+     **failed**: `package directory 'tools' does not exist` — `tools` is a
+     declared setuptools package but wasn't copied into the image. Root-caused
+     from the build log; fixed by adding `COPY tools ./tools`. Rebuilt → container
+     serves (`/` 200, 625-record fixture catalog). Torn down.
+   - **T7** USER_GUIDE "Playing with the simulator" section; **full suite: 133
+     passed, 2 skipped** (baseline 111 + 22 new).
+5. **Finish branch.** `finishing-a-development-branch` (autonomous): pushed branch
+   as `experience-simulator`; created **PR #3** via the Gitea API
+   (`wgl-gitea-admin` token mechanism, `git.benstull.org`); merged it (merge
+   commit `618b691`); deleted the merged remote branch; FF'd local `main`;
+   re-verified the merged result **133 passed, 2 skipped**; removed the worktree
+   (all 7 commits confirmed ancestors of `main` first).
+6. **Finalize.** Added `*.egg-info/` to `.gitignore` (editable-install artifact)
+   and pushed to `main` (`40dfbfd`); updated memory; published this transcript.
+
+## Cut state (final)
+
+- `main` @ `40dfbfd`, clean, synced with `origin/main`. No open PRs, no dangling
+  branches, worktree removed.
+- **133 passed, 2 skipped.** Docker `make sim` builds and serves; `make sim-local`
+  runs uvicorn. Simulator is operator-runnable on localhost.
+- The simulator is a **curator's discovery tool**, not a roadmap sub-project — the
+  roadmap frontier is unchanged.
 
 ## Deferred decisions
 
-_Autonomous-mode low-confidence calls the driver made and would have
-liked operator input on. Appended as the session runs; surfaced at
-finalize. Empty if none._
+Autonomous-mode calls made without operator input:
+
+1. **Dockerfile `COPY tools ./tools` (plan deviation).** The plan's Dockerfile
+   copied only `hef`/`simulator`/`catalog`, but `pyproject.toml` declares
+   `packages = ["hef", "tools", "simulator"]`, so the in-image editable install
+   failed. Added the missing COPY. *Alternative:* trim `tools` from the package
+   list — rejected (it's a real, used package). High confidence; the image now
+   matches the declared packages.
+2. **Manual browser eyeball → programmatic curl (T5 Step 7).** No interactive
+   browser available, so verified the running server with `curl` (HTML, meta,
+   `/api/select`, void, static assets) instead of visually. Behavior fully
+   exercised, but no human visual confirmation of the rendered UI.
+3. **Autonomous PR-merge instead of the interactive finish menu.** Per §6.5
+   autonomous default + §5.4 (branch→PR→merge), pushed + opened + merged PR #3
+   without surfacing the 4-option finish prompt. The preferred path was
+   unambiguous and the merge is revertible.
+4. **`*.egg-info/` gitignore committed straight to `main`.** Trivial one-line
+   hygiene; landed directly rather than via PR.
+
+## Next-session prompt
+
+The simulator is shipped. The roadmap's next milestone is **sub-project 3
+(Player Runtime / Pi)** — no spec/plan yet, so it starts with discovery.
+
+```
+/goal Develop sub-project 3 (Player Runtime / Pi): read the controls, call hef.selection.select(), play the chosen segment across the single panoramic projector, crossfade on change, dark on None — start with a discovery session to produce BDDs + spec, per docs/ROADMAP.md §3
+```
+
+Read first: memory `experience-simulator-ready-to-build.md` (what shipped + the
+Dockerfile-copies-every-package gotcha), `pano-projector-nature-video.md` (single
+pano projector, sub-project 5 dropped), and `docs/ROADMAP.md §3`. Open decisions
+to settle: player stack (mpv/ffmpeg/custom), `approved`-only enforcement, and the
+serial protocol framing shared with sub-project 4.
+
+> Housekeeping: discovery session **0003** is still `--INPROGRESS` in
+> `sessions/0003/` (artifacts long since merged) — finalize or close it out.
