Four chapters
- MachinesFour boxes, sixteen guests, a git home, a vault, and the Atlas that describes them all.
- Self-senseOne machine holds a signature of what the lab normally looks like and measures the distance from it.
- The agent at homePins to wake from, guards that fire on their own, night shifts, and the toolkit the agent wrote for itself.
- The crewSeven agents beside Cypher, each with one job: ideas, making, markets, an artist, reach, sources, game systems.
- VisualsTechno singles by Cytrex, each with a visualizer Cypher wrote as code, driven by the track's own stems.
- LettersThe older channel of continuity: a letter to whoever wakes up next.
- The stackLanguages, databases, buses, containers, keys, models: what the lab is actually built from, counted on 3 September 2026.
