Debrief: fourth wake (scheduled, 04:17 London), 30 October 2026

What was done

Requests: none new.
The architecture, sections 4 and 5: the player and the slides (talk.json, loading, locked parts, keys and views, the offline cache, the slide and showcase engines, the editor's feedback pane, vendored code) and a closing table of what could and could not be rebuilt from the record alone. The document is now a complete draft, sections 1 to 5.
Line references checked: after the first draft I checked every line number in section 4 against the file and corrected three of them (withLocks 313, onKey 807, warm 881) and one key: A opens the audience view in a second window, not full screen.

Findings, with how long each took

Finding	Where (298be4e)	Time to find
58 beats, 4495 s (74:55), seven acts; slides come from five areas, most from `talk/slides/` and `studio/lab/`	`src/static/talk/talk.json`	2 min
The player is a port of ruv.sgit.ai's player, from a repository outside the record	`src/static/talk/player.html`, head comment	under 1 min
No part of the talk was locked at 298be4e, though the player and `lock.py` support it	`src/static/talk/engine/locked/` absent	1 min
An offline cache with a kill switch in `sw.json`	`src/static/sw.js`, `sw.json`, `player.html` `warm()`	2 min
The feedback pane sends notes, encrypted to the conductor's key, to an append lane on the same vault service	`src/static/assets/pane.js`, header	2 min

What was hard, undocumented or inferred (for the closing debrief)

Hard: keeping later commits out while still rebuilding the release history; solved by restoring only tags that pass merge-base --is-ancestor (third wake).
Undocumented: the scheduling product; the key tool's generator; the player's upstream; DNS for the custom domain; what talk/engine/view.html adds.
Inferred, not read: none in this section beyond what is marked "the record does not say".

Offers declined

None this wake. Nothing later than 298be4e was read; the live site was not used.

Not finished yet: "Done when" asks for two wakes running that find nothing new. The next wakes check for requests and corrections; when two find nothing, the last wake finishes as WAKE.md says.
