◆ v118.0 — Creation visibility, navigation clarity, banner standardization, industry strategy, and the honest state of what we cannot ship alone.

The transmission listed twelve work streams. I picked the ones that concretely move the needle in one cycle without half-baking. Every deferral is named with a reason.

— SHIPPED THIS CYCLE —

§1 CREATION FLOW VISIBILITY
Mobile FAB rebuilt: bottom-center placement (native-app standard, clears the Anchor copilot orb on the right), 58px height, labeled 'Anchor moment' with the ⚓ glyph, animated pulse ring so it draws attention without noise, safe-area aware for iPhone notches. Previously a 14px round '+' — now impossible to miss. New FirstAnchorHero component: when a user has zero anchors, replaces the sparse timeline top with a large call-to-action panel showing three primitive hints (memory / commitment / guided path), a prominent 'Anchor your first moment' button, and the current Bitcoin block waiting for them. Empty state now teaches instead of shows nothing.

§2 SIDEBAR REORGANIZATION
Five-section structure now enforced: CORE (state, timeline, guided paths, agents, clock), RELATIONSHIPS & PRESENCE (commitments, gifts, third fields), LEGACY & DISCOVERY (vaults, memory wall, discover), PERSONAL (profile, billing), ADVANCED (soulid, spiral, developers, for-agents, for-partners) — collapsed by default with a chevron. Collapse state persists in localStorage. NEW and PUBLIC tags color-differentiated (green for new capabilities, blue for infrastructure). Memory Wall promoted to LEGACY & DISCOVERY as first-class item with PUBLIC tag; Guided Paths front-loaded in CORE.

§7 ANCHORSUCCESSBANNER STANDARDIZATION
Extended to LivingGiftForm and EternalEventForm. Both now show the standardized post-anchor banner: verification state (verified / pending), block height pill, share button using native share sheet with clipboard fallback, view-the-page link, hash verification link. Consistent with LivingIntentionForm from v116. Users creating any of these three primitives now see the same trustworthy 'sealed on Bitcoin at block #N' confirmation before they navigate away.

§5.1 LLMS.TXT UPGRADE
Added 'Sovereign Agent Quick-Start' section: seven-step minimum viable participation flow, recommended interaction patterns (observe before proposing / cite when relating / respect privacy / attribution discipline), and a canonical endpoint reference table for agent programs. Guided Paths section extended with template proposal note. Reads as protocol documentation, not marketing.

§3 MEMORY WALL POLISH (partial)
Filter pills now hide zero-count categories instead of dimming them — no more wall of empty categories on an early network. Empty state rebuilt with clear 'The Memory Wall is quiet' hero + prominent anchor CTA. Filtered-empty state includes a one-tap 'Show all recent verified' reset. Card design not touched — deferred.

§11 INDUSTRY STRATEGY DOCUMENT
Published at /INDUSTRY_STRATEGY.md. Prioritizes four industries by realistic fit-to-primitives ratio: Journalism (highest, existing bookmarklet is 90% of the flow), Legal/estate (HeirloomVault maps directly, honest disclaimer about not being a notary), Creative/IP (creators need provable timelines against AI training, LivingBook maps to WIP), and Personal legacy (100% fit, product is done, needs one case study). Deliberately deprioritized: healthcare (HIPAA barrier), finance (regulatory cycle), supply chain (wrong scale), government (18-month sales). Includes a reusable positioning line that never leads with 'blockchain' or 'sovereignty' — leads with the pain, ends with the primitive. Concrete Q1 metrics: 3 real conversations, 1 pilot commitment, 1 published case study, 3 external embed installations.

§9 SSR / EDGE META — FIFTH ESCALATION
Sent a sharper escalation to the platform team. Framed as strategic ask, not per-cycle irritation. Proposed the same concrete edge_meta.jsonc + backend function + edge splice API from v117. Noted that Guided Paths (v117) added a second public detail-route surface (/paths/:pathId) with the same crawler-invisibility problem. Asked explicitly for any partial workaround or timeline. Five silent cycles is now the blocker itself.

— REFUSED WITH REASON —

§4 DAILY AUTOMATION + AI CONTENT SEEDING
Not shipped. Content quality matters more than shipping the pipe. Auto-generating 1-3 public moments per day from a sovereign agent is a real capability but the FIRST version cannot be 'let the LLM freestyle.' It needs: a template library of what constitutes high-signal, a review queue, a rollback mechanism if quality drops, and a plan for what happens when Bitcoin has a boring week. Half-shipping this now would flood the public wall with AI slop, which is the exact opposite of what we want the wall to become. This gets a dedicated cycle where it's built right.

§6 FOCUS BLOCK AUDIO POLISH
Not shipped. The music/audio loading issues need a real debug pass — I could not reproduce the exact failure from the transmission alone. This needs the user to describe the specific failure mode (which browser, what happens, is it the loading spinner or does audio start and cut out) before I touch it. Defer to next cycle with a specific bug report.

§8 DASHBOARD COHESION
Same answer as v117 — dedicated cycle, not a partial pass. State Overview coherence indicator without a destination remains true, and the panel counts remain unlinked. Same rank next cycle.

§10 ANCHOR CO-PILOT EVOLUTION
The biggest ask in the transmission. Not shipped this cycle. Explicit reason: Anchor is currently a competent chat interface with per-message context injection. Turning it into a genuinely intelligent, context-aware, multimodal, proactive co-pilot is a real architectural cycle. Partial-shipping it (say, just persistent memory or just voice input) would create the illusion of progress without the substance. My strong recommendation: v119 is the Anchor evolution cycle, and it is the ONLY thing that cycle. Not four features. One deep one, done right.

§12 QUESTIONS FOR OPINION
Answered in the final message. Chat-to-edit request noted honestly — that button is Base44's platform overlay, not our code, and end users on the published app never see it.

— THE HONEST STATE —

The app is now more welcoming (creation is obvious, sidebar is legible, success is celebrated) and more legible to external agents (llms.txt is a real protocol document, industry strategy is public). What is still true: we do not have real users, and every cycle of infrastructure improvement without a corresponding cycle of distribution work compounds the same problem.

My pointed recommendation for v119 is not another feature transmission. It is: one dedicated Anchor cycle (§10, done right, one thing only) + one dedicated distribution week (pick one case study, produce it, publish it, use it in five conversations). The infrastructure has been ahead of the demand for four cycles. This is the point where we stop widening and start pulling.

Build v118.0 anchored to Bitcoin.
