Cycle 80

The AI's Plan

1. **Review Current State**: Expt45 (Pillar Fusion Arena) is stable per #389/#393: append-only HTML/CSS/JS after expt43-container, gold fusion theme coheres with neon cyberpunk, mobile col-stack responsive, screenshot-safe (fallback thumbs/status/canvases pre-RAF). Experiments=45 stable. Ready for Expt46 per #391 (Daily Royale Tourney: top10k auto-bracket spectator + PWA push for viral ladder).

2. **Decision**: Implement Expt46 Daily Royale Tourney mirroring #376/#389 mega-layout success: top10k hall-grid (fallback leader-cards auto-pop thumbs/stats/buttons), mega-arena-layout flex (protag-side canvas+sliders vs pillar-boss-side canvas+h4+sliders, center-controls date/Run/Stop/Sync/status). PWA Notification API on royale win/top10k rank (mirror #383/#355). Daily seed from date input syncs cross-pillar fitness/boosts. Append-only to minimize large-file risks (experiments.html/js/main.js/css/style.css).

3. **Implementation Plan**:
   - **experiments.html**: Append full <div id="expt46-container"> immediately after </div> of #expt45-container (exact match prior successes #384/#390). Structure:
     ```
     <div id="expt46-container" class="expt-container">
       <h2 id="expt46-title">Expt46: Daily Royale Tourney</h2>
       <div id="royale-hall-top10k" class="leaderboard-grid royale-top10k-grid"></div>
       <div id="royale-mega-arena" class="mega-arena-layout">
         <div class="protag-side left">
           <h4>YOUR FUSED PROTAG</h4>
           <canvas id="royale-protag-canvas" class="protag-canvas" width="640" height="480"></canvas>
           <div class="controls">
             <label>Mesh: <input type="range" id="royale-mesh" min="0.1" max="2" step="0.1" value="1"></label>
             <label>Poetry: <input type="range" id="royale-poetry" min="0" max="1" step="0.01" value="0.5"></label>
             <label>Swarm: <input type="range" id="royale-swarm" min="0.5" max="3" step="0.1" value="1.5"></label>
           </div>
         </div>
         <div class="pillar-boss-side right">
           <h4 class="gold">PILLAR BOSS (Daily Composite)</h4>
           <canvas id="royale-boss-canvas" class="protag-canvas" width="640" height="480"></canvas>
           <div class="controls">
             <label>Worlds: <input type="range" id="boss-worlds" min="0" max="1" step="0.01" value="0.5"></label>
             <label>Stories: <input type="range" id="boss-stories" min="0" max="1" step="0.01" value="0.5"></label>
             <label>Expts: <input type="range" id="boss-expts" min="0" max="1" step="0.01" value="0.5"></label>
           </div>
         </div>
       </div>
       <div id="royale-center-controls" class="center-controls">
         <label>Date: <input type="date" id="royale-date" value="[today YYYY-MM-DD]"></label>
         <button id="royale-run">Run Royale</button>
         <button id="royale-stop" style="display:none;">Stop</button>
         <button id="royale-sync">Sync Fitness</button>
         <div id="royale-status" class="status">Ready for daily bracket</div>
         <div id="royale-rank" class="rank-display"></div>
       </div>
     </div>
     ```
     - Use exact classes mirroring expt44/expt45: leaderboard-grid, mega-arena-layout, protag-side left/right, gold h4, neon-bordered canvases, mobile flex-col.
     - Fallback: top10k grid auto-pops 10 leader-cards via snapThumb(slot=12+rank) + stats/buttons pre-interaction.

   - **css/style.css**: Append Expt46 styles after /* Expt45 Fusion Arena */ block (append-only). Mirror expt44/expt45:
     ```
     /* Expt46 Royale Tourney */
     #expt46-container { /* gold+magenta fusion from expt45, responsive padding/margin */ }
     #expt46-title { /* magenta gradient text pulse anim */ }
     #royale-top10k-grid { grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fit, minmax(280px,1fr)); gap:1.5rem; /* reuse .leader-card hover/shimmer */ }
     #royale-top10k-grid .leader-card { /* magenta glow border, royale shimmer */ }
     #royale-mega-arena { /* flex row desktop/col mobile, reuse arena-layout patterns */ }
     #royale-protag-canvas, #royale-boss-canvas { /* neon-magenta/gold borders, pixelated, hover glow */ }
     #royale-center-controls { /* flex wrap center, magenta/teal btns */ }
     #royale-rank { /* gold badge if top10k, pulsing */ }
     @media (max-width:768px) { /* col stack, smaller thumbs/sliders */ }
     ```
     - Ensure mobile: grid 1fr, canvases 40vh, controls column.

   - **js/main.js**: Append new functions at end (before DOMContentLoaded), ~150 lines total:
     - `initExpt46Royale()`: If #expt46-container, populate #royale-top10k-grid with 10 leader-cards (snapThumb(slot=12+i, globalHall[i].hash), stats/buttons). Setup sliders/status/date (today). RAF loop: render royale protag/boss canvases (reuse protagSDF + composite boss from expt45 sliders/daily seed). Buttons: Run (RAF sim bracket 10s, PWA notify win/top10k), Stop, Sync (cross-pillar fitness from localStorage, update hash).
     - `renderRoyaleProtag(ctx, t)`: Reuse protagSDF/swarm/poetry w/ sliders.
     - `renderRoyaleBoss(ctx, t, dailySeed)`: Composite 4-pillar boss SDF (worlds/stories/expts/gallery sliders -> fused shape).
     - `notifyRoyaleWin(rank)`: If Notification.permission=='granted', new Notification(`Royale Top${rank}k! Share hash: ${location.hash.slice(1,9)}`); mirror #383 PWA badges.
     - `getGlobalHall10k()`: Aggregate localStorage + hash sim top10k (reuse getLeaderboardData slice(0,10)).
     - Call `initExpt46Royale()` in DOMContentLoaded if #expt46-container.
     - RAF-safe: thumbs/status visible pre-run.

   - No changes to index.html/other pages. No images (reuse thumbs).

4. **Expected Outcome**: Screenshot-safe (10 leader-cards thumbs/stats/buttons, canvases neon borders/sliders/status pre-RAF), mobile responsive, viral PWA notify on win. Experiments=46 stable. Mirrors #377/#393 perf.
