irisandClaude Opus 5 42d54eec95 Fling: the vsync clock, the frame ask, and a report that can say what it measured
Iris, from her phone: "some stuttering when flinging in particular.
Harder to notice with my finger directly moving the scroll." Her fling
phase was 103fps on a 120Hz screen at p50 6.3ms.

Two of the four things found are corrections to the instrument, not the
renderer. The swapchain acquire -- `get_current_texture`, which *blocks*
until the compositor frees an image -- was inside the span the report
called iris's CPU work, so a fling comfortably ahead of the display read
as milliseconds of being slow. A frame is now three measured parts
(`FrameParts`: build, acquire, submit), per phase as well as per run. And
nothing could say a frame was never *produced*: `late` counts frames that
cost too much, which a reader does not see, while a frame that never
happens leaves the last one up for two refreshes, which is the stutter.
`PhaseStats::missed` counts vsyncs nothing was drawn for. It closes on
the emulator: 1548 frames + 452 missed over 33.0s at 60Hz is 1980
vsyncs.

The other two are the frame loop. `Choreographer.postFrameCallback`
schedules for the next vsync after the call, and iris asked at the *end*
of the callback -- so any frame whose work ran past the boundary
registered too late and got the vsync after, one frame over budget
silently costing a second. It is asked for immediately after
`tick_animations` now, on both backends. And the fling was advanced on
`Instant::now()` rather than the vsync `do_frame` carries: frames are
presented on an even cadence whatever clock computes them, so sampling
the spline at "whenever the callback ran" moves the content unevenly with
no frame late enough to appear in any report -- and a drag never had it,
which is the asymmetry Iris described. `PointerClock` is `DeviceClock`
and the view keeps one, anchored by whichever of a touch or a frame comes
first, so a fling is advanced on the clock its velocity was measured on.

`opt-level` for the Android release build goes from "s" to 3. The table
in RUST.md picked "s" on bytes alone; over the same warm fling eight
times iris's own per-frame work is p90 0.15ms/p99 0.42ms at "s" against
p90 0.09ms/p99 0.26ms at 3, for 1.8 MB of arm64 APK.

`app-rust/tests/fling_profile.rs` is the rig that established what a
fling frame actually costs and is kept for next time (Iris: "please keep
the profiling rig around for future use"): only one frame in six lays
anything out, and the multi-millisecond spikes are all first-pass.

irisandClaude Opus 5 4ccfda6b8e Delete the decisions and design logs; scripts, rigs and xtask off the root
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.

irisandClaude Opus 5 09778346a0 Prune the docs of work already done: 18,252 -> 7,567 lines
Iris: "the documentation is also pretty crazy too. Can you go through it
and remove everything that's already done and decided? There's entire md
files iirc for projects already complete. And many with checkboxes already
ticked off that just fill up context."

  docs/RUST.md        8503 -> 905    the framework bake-off (options,
                                     recommendation, twelve closed
                                     experiment boxes) and two superseded
                                     "where things stand" sections, out;
                                     what the experiments settled kept as
                                     one line each
  docs/IRIS_TODO.md   1383 -> 229    fifty closed items and six
                                     phone-report sections whose defects
                                     are all fixed
  docs/LAYOUT.md      1116 -> 829    the pre-implementation framing: the
                                     old trait, the checklist, the
                                     migration list, the pass conditions
  docs/TEXTURES.md     496 -> 240    the prior-art survey, the proposal
                                     and its review, all implemented
  docs/REVIEW-*.md     673 -> 0      two completed review passes; the two
                                     findings left open on purpose (mask
                                     hit-testing, the phone's font set)
                                     moved into RUST.md

What survives a prune is what cannot be cheaply re-derived: measurements
(the APK-size table, the phone bench reports), dead ends, invariants and
their reasons, and the design of what exists now rather than the route to
it. AGENTS.md now says that, so the next session prunes as it goes rather
than appending; docs/IRIS_TODO.md's header says items are deleted when
they land rather than ticked.

Deleting the two review files left eighteen citations dangling in code
comments that state their reason inline and cited the file for provenance
only — those now read "(review, 2026-09-06)" and carry no dead pointer.
The emulator's measured GPU capabilities moved to the this-machine-android
skill, where machine facts belong. IRIS.md and DECISIONS.md are dated
records and were not rewritten; each gained one note that paths in older
entries predate the 2026-09-08 crate merge, pointing at the mapping.

Not touched, deliberately: docs/DECISIONS.md's entries (that file *is* the
queue of things for Iris to review, so deleting decided items would remove
what it exists for) and iris/readme.md and iris/TODO, which are hers.

Verified: ./run-tests.sh and `cd iris && cargo test` green, clippy and fmt
clean in every workspace, and every remaining docs/*.md cross-reference
resolves.

irisandClaude Opus 5 4fdabc39d0 iris: one ScrollController, a Scrollable trait, and Pin
Iris's three points on docs/SCROLL.md, in the shape she proposed: a
controller both scrolling widgets *contain*, rather than a protocol
between them. "I don't like adding methods to widget, it seems like we
can structure things better instead."

`Scroll` becomes `ScrollArea`, because it only scrolls a predefined area.
`ScrollController` holds everything that is not a particular widget's
layout -- the position, the pending delta, the travel left each way, the
pin, the DragGesture and the Flinger -- and `Scrollable` is the trait over
it, one required pair of methods with the rest defaulted.

`Widget` loses `scrolls_itself`, `apply_scroll` and `scroll_offset`. They
existed only so a `Scroll` could drive a `LazySpan` it had no business
wrapping; the span owns its own controller now, so the wrapper, the
measure/apply/place dance between two widgets and `amt`'s two meanings all
go with them. The transcript's tree loses a node: `list` is the layout and
the position.

`.scrollable(axis, pin)` replaces `scrollable`/`scrollable_on`/
`scrollable_to_end` -- one mechanism whose arguments had been hidden in
three names. `LazySpan` has an inherent `scrollable()` that shadows it,
since Rust resolves inherent methods before trait ones: the same word at
the call site, and the wrapping version cannot reach the one widget that
must not be wrapped.

`Pin` says which end either way round: `Start`/`End` are content-relative
and `Neg`/`Pos` axis-absolute, so a caller can say "the bottom" and mean
it whichever way the content runs. They differ only for a reversed span,
which is the whole reason both exist.

One behaviour changes: a delta is applied by the next draw rather than
where it arrives, since the layout is the only thing that knows where the
content ends. Nothing on screen differs -- input is followed by a frame --
but `amt` no longer moves between draws, which several tests were reading.
This also closes SCROLL.md's open question about the pin living in two
places.

Verified: cargo test --workspace (all green, including the layer-1
transcript-fixture fling/selection/top-edge tests), clippy --all-targets
clean, fmt clean, `cargo ndk` check of android-app, and
`run-headless.sh phone --phone --replay flick-120hz.touch`, whose
before/after screenshots show the recorded flick carrying the transcript
back from turn 270 to turn 258 on the Vulkan adapter.

irisandClaude Opus 5 bf8658c404 iris: a scroll delta's sign is a screen direction, not a logical one
Positive scrolls the reader up or left and negative down or right,
whichever way the widget receiving it lays its content out (Iris,
2026-09-08: "that way it always works as the user would expect").

`LazySpan` took the delta straight into the direction-relative space its
walk works in, so a `Dir::UP` span -- whose later content is *above* --
panned the opposite way from every other scrollable in iris for the same
number. `flip_delta` is the conversion, the counterpart of the `flip_pos`
that positions already went through, and the two places that meet the
outside world (`apply_scroll` and `moved`) are the only ones that use it.

Nothing built a `Dir::UP` span yet, so this was latent; the existing sign
test could not have found it either, since it asserts in the walk's own
space where both halves agree with each other while disagreeing with the
screen. The new test compares the two `dir`s against where rows were
actually drawn.

irisandClaude Opus 5 00e0a63887 docs: SCROLL.md, the standing reference for how iris scrolls
For the next session, since this one is about to be cleared. Current
design only -- `Scroll` owns the position, the gesture and the fling; a
child is either moved or answers `Widget::scrolls_itself` and is handed
deltas; one sign convention, the finger's. It carries the things that are
expensive to rediscover and easy to undo by accident: why the two `&self`
capability methods must not be `&mut` (`get_dyn_mut` marks dirty), why
`scroll_offset` exists beside `apply_scroll`'s remainder, why the
measuring draw is free, why nothing is marked by hand, why the height
cache stays in the container, why the transcript builds its `Scroll` by
hand instead of through `.scrollable_to_end()`, and the measured numbers
behind "a `LazySpan` is not a `Span`".

Also names the one thing still open -- the pin -- with the two ways to
close it and an instruction to ask Iris rather than guess.

`scroll.rs` and `lazy_span.rs` now point at it from their module docs
rather than restating it, AGENTS.md lists it beside the other design
documents, and IRIS_TODO.md's in-progress entry defers to it.
