The stress fixture is sized from production and exists to weigh bytes, so it
leaves every column it does not weigh at its default. Checked against a freshly
built one, that is exactly the set phase 14 has to migrate: state_before and
world_state_before NULL on all 600 rows, no scenario and so no RPG layer, no
adventure scripts, both cursors 0, and a hundred retry histories whose two
attempts carry byte-identical text with variant_index pinned at 0.
That last one matters most. "Which attempt is live?" is the question SP4's
migration answers when it decides which sibling node becomes the head of a
turn, and against that fixture the question had no observable answer -- a
migration that picked wrong would have looked correct.
--rich fills in those columns and no others. A real RPG scenario read from the
seed data rather than invented, with a world state played forward so hp
declines and flags flip; monotonic per-action state snapshots, so a rollback
that does not happen reads as a wrong number instead of as nothing; a gold
script, story cards, non-zero cursors, pinned and forgotten memories; retry
attempts with distinct texts, counts of two and three, and a live attempt that
is often not the last written. Plus a second adventure, because a branch clause
that forgot its adventure still looks right on a database holding one.
The invariant SP4 reads -- text mirrors variants[variant_index] -- is asserted
at build time rather than assumed.
The plain fixture is untouched and re-measured unchanged at 1.8 kB, so the
egress ceilings stay comparable. All six shapes run clean on --rich, including
the turn path with the RPG layer and script pipeline now live. 283 tests pass.

The harness already built a production-shaped 600-action adventure and then
threw it away with the temp file. The one open gap in plan/13 is that nothing
has ever driven the scroll in a browser, and part of why is that there was
never a long adventure to drive it with.
--keep PATH writes the fixture somewhere durable and makes the app able to
serve it. Two edits are needed for that, both of which cost an hour to
rediscover:
- create_all() builds the current schema but leaves the version stamp at its
default, and bootstrap() reads a populated-but-unstamped database as
ancient — it replays every migration against a schema that already has the
columns, and fails on the first.
- the fixture's user is a registered one, but local mode looks for the row
with email IS NULL and is_guest false, so without clearing the email the
app opens on an empty library.
--keep is read before argparse exists, because where the database lives has to
be settled before app.database is imported. That is the same constraint the
AIDND_STRESS_DATABASE_URL block already lives under. SQLite only; combining it
with a Postgres target is rejected rather than half-honoured.
Verified end to end: the fixture boots with no manual step, action_count 600,
a 60-action first payload, and before_id walks back nine more pages to the
start. Nothing about the default path changed; 259 tests pass.

The post-vacuum sizes had never been read. They were 144.2 MB - above the
99.6 MB the compression work started from, not the ~53 MB it projected. The
earlier VACUUM FULL ran before migrations 42-45, which then rewrote every row
and refilled the table with dead space that only another VACUUM FULL returns.
Ran it: 144.2 -> 65.0 MB, 79.2 MB reclaimed in 5.5s, health green after.
actions is now 52.1 MB holding 50.4 MB of live bytes. The projection was right;
nothing had reclaimed what the compression freed.
Also records where those bytes are. context_snapshot is 94% of the table at
104 kB a row, and the per-action state columns a tree would sit beside are
rounding errors - which is the number phase 14 wants before it adds more.
And a trap: n_live_tup on the TOAST relation implied half the real bloat. It
is a leftover ANALYZE estimate, stale in the flattering direction right after
a migration. Size from sum(octet_length(col)) instead.

STATUS was written before the deploy and still asked for a VACUUM that has
since been run. Replaces that with what was actually verified against the
running service, and with the two things a next session would otherwise have
to rediscover.
The post-vacuum sizes were never measured, so the projection stays a
projection; the query to settle it is in the file. And the scroll gap is
promoted from a footnote to the one real open item, because re-reading that
path after shipping found a bug in it -- which is the argument that reading it
again is not the fix.

Records what the six changes measured, and replaces the pick-up item -- which
was step 6 -- with plan/14, since there is nothing left in 13.
Two things a future session needs and cannot infer from the code. The VACUUM:
migration 43 compresses context_snapshot but Postgres does not return the disk
by itself, so until `VACUUM FULL actions` runs the storage win exists only on
paper and the table is temporarily larger, not smaller. And the gap: nothing
exercises the scroll behaviour in a browser, because the frontend has no test
runner, and prepend-and-restore-scroll is the part most likely to feel wrong
even when it is correct.

The previous commit recorded the service as suspended. It is not. Render
appended a suffix to the `ai-dnd` service name in render.yaml, and plain
ai-dnd.onrender.com is a different, suspended service whose 503 page reads
"suspended by its owner" -- indistinguishable from this deploy being down
unless you notice the host is wrong.
The real host answers {"ok":true} on /api/health in 0.6s, mints a guest,
returns an empty adventure list for that guest and serves the starter
scenarios. The authoritative link is the one docs/index.html points at, not
the service name in the blueprint.

Everything measured so far ran on SQLite against a synthetic fixture, so two
claims were still on trust: that migration 38 spells BYTEA correctly for a real
server, and that the byte figures survive psycopg's encodings.
Both hold. Production reads schema_version 41 with embedding_blob bytea and
embedded boolean present, the backfill is complete at 134/134, and the packed
vectors are 5.04x smaller than the JSON on real data -- 30,971 to 6,144 bytes a
memory, as predicted. stress_session now takes AIDND_STRESS_DATABASE_URL, and
against a throwaway Neon database every shape lands within 0.5% of the SQLite
run: the warm turn is 121.1 kB against 122.3, with memories down to 1.7 kB of
it.
The harness writes, so it refuses any target whose name does not say stress or
scratch -- pointed at the production database it stops rather than seeding it
with a fake user and 200 fake turns. It also empties a Postgres target before
building, which a fresh SQLite temp file never needed.
Two corrections fall out, both recorded in plan/13. The page-load model has the
wrong shape: real actions are half the fixture's weight but real stories run to
607 actions, not 200, so the worst real page load is 589.5 kB. And the decision
to leave context_snapshot in the database costed egress but never storage --
it is 88.9 MB of a 99.6 MB database against a 512 MB free tier, which is the
ceiling this deploy will hit first.
Measured with counts and octet_length sums only. No user content was read.

plan/STATUS.md: what the last session changed, what to pick up next, and the
handful of things that were learned the hard way and would otherwise have to
be rediscovered. Linked from the overview, which now also lists plans 13 and
14 alongside the earlier phases.
