Keypoints

What we’re building toward

Hybrid stack: terminals stay 25² / half-block; public scale on the edge; producers keep RTMP and program bus control. Stress the feed pipeline from the browser; ship reliability from the binary.

Glyph-first surfaces Burst orb, Spaces seats, news wall, GrokGlyph PWA — same 13/25/37/49 matrix vocabulary.
World live news + theme clump Global catalog (news · weather · public access). Main swap column. AI captions → theme clusters.
X Spaces + stream asset Host / 2 co-hosts / 10 speakers / listeners. Mute controls. gy stream-x as RTMP asset for others → ca.pscp.tv.
Key when ready Auto-pull stream key from env / file / JSON / vault URL / clipboard / hub token API.
Hybrid capacity DOJO hub + gy-sfu for 16–32 · CF Workers/DO for 1k+ chat · media SFU lanes optional.
Media supervisor Bounded ffmpeg/yt-dlp children · health · kill · news wall stagger · GY_MEDIA_MAX.
Grok orchestrate Takes on stable feeds: STYLE / CAPTION / PATTERN / GLYPH with overlay + program bus.
Reliability + plugins Panic recovery · metrics · CI release sums · in-process style/mesh plugins (no .so).
Facility path ST 2110 / NMOS / NDI scaffolds · sync doctor · venue sinks — edge vs facility planes.
Phone + PiP Same-WiFi cast · phone-v glyph · macOS QuickTime PiP pop-out.

Shipped · burst · livenews · stream-x · plugins · reliability

Next · live AI caption pipe → theme sort · more public-access feeds · SFU auth
