Iris: "remove both decisions and iris.md. I've decided to instead make decisions when planning with agents rather than after they do things, and they're both too long for me to wanna read, + don't cover all the decisions I'll wanna make about the code anyways. I'll just naturally run into things for now. Todo is important though." So docs/DECISIONS.md (850 lines) and docs/IRIS.md (1,986) are gone, and AGENTS.md now says not to start another: raise a choice while planning it with her, otherwise decide it and put the reasoning at the code it governs. The TODO lists stay. docs/SUBAGENTS_DECISIONS.md went with them -- same artefact, same reasoning, and she did not name it, so its six decisions were folded into docs/SUBAGENTS.md rather than deleted. Deleting the logs left ~30 citations dangling in code comments and docs. Each states its reason inline and cited the file only for provenance, so they now read "decided 2026-09-07" or name the module doc that carries the reasoning. The root had six things that were not a program or a document. Moved, per "I only meant top level sh files": run-tests.sh, test-wg-tunnel.sh, wg-setup-host.sh -> scripts/ rigs/ -> scripts/rigs/ xtask/ -> scripts/xtask/ A project's own scripts stayed with the project: app/*.sh, app-rust/*.sh, iris/*.sh and server/enroll-link.sh did not move. `target/` at the root is deleted and cannot come back: there was never a workspace there, and the 29 MB was only xtask's scratch space, now in scripts/xtask/target/. `cargo xtask apk` still runs from the repo root and now publishes to scripts/build/outputs/apk/<mode>/ -- one directory deep, because that is what Dev Updater's `*/build/outputs/apk/*/*.apk` discovery pattern needs, and scripts/xtask/build would have been two. Verified: ./scripts/run-tests.sh and `cd iris && cargo test` green, clippy and fmt clean everywhere, `cargo xtask apk debug --abi x86_64` builds and signs an APK carrying lib/x86_64/libai_app.so at the new publish path, and the repo root is now eleven entries with no build output among them.

My experimental attempt at a rust ui library (also my first ui library).
It's currently designed around using retained data structures (widgets), rather than diffing generated trees from data like xilem or iced. This is an experiment and I'm not sure if it's a good idea or not.
Examples are in examples, eg. cargo run --example tabs.
Goals, in general order:
- does what I want it to (text, images, video, animations)
- very easy to use ignoring ergonomic ref counting
- reasonably fast / efficient (a lot faster than electron, save battery life, try to beat iced and xilem)
dev details
not targeting web rn cause wanna use actual nice gpu features & entire point of this is to make desktop apps / not need a web browser
general ideas trynna use rn / experiment with:
- retained mode
- specifically designed around wgpu so there's no translation
- postfix functions for most things to prevent unreadable indentation (going very well)
- events can be done directly where you draw the widgets
- almost no macros in user code & actual LSP typechecking (variadic generics if you can hear me please save us)
- relative anchor + absolute offset coord system (+ "rest" / leftover during widget layout)
- single threaded ui & pass context around to make non async usage straightforward (pretty unsure about this)
- widgets store outside of the actual rendering so they can be moved around and swapped easily (unsure about this but seems to work good for now)
under heavy initial development so not gonna try to explain status, maybe check TODO for that; sizable chance it gets a rewrite once I know everything I need and what seems to work best
it's called iris because it's the structure around what you actually want to display and colorful
