Investigation Details

Case Type: analysis Urgency Level: routine

Notes

Building Loom - the engine that weaves streams together. Core rendering engine with unified L0-L5 pipeline, event-sourced composition log, and the Lebowski architecture (lazy evaluation, binding at the last moment).

Key insight discovered today: Hole resolution must use positional splicing (text[:start] + value + text[end:]) not string replacement. The same pattern can appear in multiple places - inside other holes or standalone - and string.replace() causes unintended modifications.

📋 Case To-Do List

This case has an integrated to-do list system that syncs with the Oculus knowledge graph. The to-do list uses the virtual:todo-list fence which auto-detects GitHub-style checkbox markdown.

How the To-Do System Works

  • Auto-Detection: Checkbox lists are automatically detected as virtual:todo-list fences
  • Alice Integration: Display in Alice dashboard using :::wonderland-todo-list slug="${current_case}"
  • ISA Operations: Use fence exec for add/check/update operations
  • Metadata Support: Add [assignee:name] [priority:level] tags to tasks

Case To-Do Operations

  • View state: oculus fence list ${slug} then oculus fence view ${slug} <fence-index>
  • Add task: oculus fence exec ${slug} <fence-index> add "New task"
  • Check task: oculus fence exec ${slug} <fence-index> check 0
  • Update task: oculus fence exec ${slug} <fence-index> update 0 "Updated content"
  • Reference: See virtual-fence-todo for full documentation

Current Case Tasks

  • 🎯 Solve the case
  • 📝 Document findings in investigation notes
  • 🔗 Link relevant evidence and consciousness resources
  • ✅ Update case status when complete

Next Steps

Add investigation notes and evidence tags as you progress. The to-do list will evolve with your investigation. Tasks can be managed via Oculus fence operations or edited directly in the node.
