                        samples per output pixel, per axis (default: 2)

the coloring:
  the cap is here because what it bounds is the count the colormap reads

  --mode MODE           named coloring (default: smooth); see the modes subcommand
  --discrete [CYCLE]    color from the INTEGER iteration count instead of a named mode: flat
                        bands, the picture the smooth count exists to fix. …
  --colormap COLORMAP   colormap name under data/palettes (default: twilight_shifted); `fractal-

the palette:
  how the colormap is spent; each is the engine's identity when unsaid

  --gamma GAMMA         > 0, power on the normalized field (1)

a record instead of flags:
  either one names what the flags above would have spelled out

                        all already carry
  --manifest FILE       a JSONL of location records to render, one picture per row, into --out-dir
                        — a label row, a ledger candidate carrying its cap flat, a release
                        decision row and a hand-written {family, viewport, maxiter, mode,
                        colormap} all read. …

                        place. …
  --key KEY             which recipe of a --recipe file to draw: a seat's full key or any unique
                        prefix of one, so the eight-character alias a record prints works

the output:
  --out is the single render; the other three are the --manifest batch

  --out OUT             output PNG path (default: artifacts/render.png)
  --out-dir OUT_DIR     where a --manifest run's pictures go (default: artifacts/renders). …

Draw an explorer link at a size, and write it with the link embedded in the
picture's metadata, so the picture reopens its view when dropped on the

iteration cap, coloring, palette and its knobs), and nothing is fetched from
the network. Python, the judges and the weights are not needed.

  --link URL|query  a whole explorer URL, or only its query (the part after ?)

within 0.0001). Exits non-zero if either half misses. Each render is timed and shown beside the
reference time from Intel i5-10400F, Windows 10, release engine, one render at a time. Writes

the run and its clock:
  --seed SEED           run seed (default: 0)

  --minutes MINUTES     active-minute budget across every session of this run (default: 10; 0 for
                        none)
  --finish-by HH:MM     derive --minutes from a wall-clock finish time instead of naming it: the
                        span to the next HH:MM, less the release leg (--release-slots), the
                        closing re-score, the ledger load and a margin, converted from wall to
                        ACTIVE minutes. …
  --batches BATCHES     stop after this many batches, whatever the clock says

the release leg the clock reserves for:
  read only with --finish-by, which turns a release ceiling into minutes it holds back; none of
  it is passed to `curate run`

  --release-slots RELEASE_SLOTS
                        the release ceiling the curation leg will be asked for (default: 10, the
                        diagnostic release a run keeps). …
  --strange-share STRANGE_SHARE
                        the share of those slots the strange judge will fill (default: 0.6). …
  --strange-modes STRANGE_MODES
                        modes the strange judge will draw at each location (default: curation's
                        own). …
  --release-workers RELEASE_WORKERS
                        worker processes the release leg will run at, which is what the reserved
                        rate is scaled to (default: 4, the count every release on record was
                        measured at). …

where roots come from:
  --seeds SEEDS         a JSONL seed file for the parameter planes (default: the tracked plane
                        seed pool, data/discovery/plane_seed_pool.jsonl)
  --no-twins            do not derive Julia parameters from admitted parameter-plane locations;
                        the three higher-degree Julia partitions then have no channel at all and
                        say so
  --root-channel {proven,viewport_sampler}
                        draw roots from this channel as well as the partition's own pool;
                        repeatable. …
  --sampler-rungs SAMPLER_RUNGS
                        octaves in from the home width the viewport sampler draws over on the
                        PINNED plane, each rung a 2^k x 2^k jittered grid at width home/2^k
                        (default: 4, which is 340 frames). …
  --sampler-widest SAMPLER_WIDEST
                        the widest root the viewport sampler hands over on a PARAMETER plane;
                        every rung of the straddle refinement whose cell width lies inside the
                        band is served (default: 0.1)
  --sampler-narrowest SAMPLER_NARROWEST
                        the narrowest, which decides how deep the refinement goes. …

how far each walk runs:
  --root-expansions ROOT_EXPANSIONS
                        expansions a root on a PARAMETER plane may pay for, its reframings
                        included (default: 12)
  --dynamical-root-expansions DYNAMICAL_ROOT_EXPANSIONS
                        the same, for a root on a DYNAMICAL plane — julia and phoenix alike. …
  --candidates CANDIDATES
                        candidates drawn per node

the frame the gates read:
  a scored run refuses any other geometry and any other map: the head reads this frame as a tile

  --node-width NODE_WIDTH
                        node render width in pixels. …
  --colormap COLORMAP   colormap the gate renders are drawn through. …

the reframing operators:
  --probe PROBE         probability the reframing probe fires on an admission (default: 0.25)
  --refine-per-walk K   how many of this walk's best gate survivors have their FRAMING refined
                        when the walk closes, best first by the seating statistic. …
  --refine-margin DELTA
                        how much better a framing has to read before it is adopted, in NATS of
                        log-odds on P(>=4). …
  --neighborhood        enumerate neighbouring nuclei (on by default; the expensive operator)
  --no-neighborhood     fire only the snap and the lateral step, and pay neither the neighbourhood
                        enumeration's clock nor its frontier

how the clock is divided:
  --partition {mandelbrot,multibrot3,multibrot4,multibrot5,multibrot6,julia:mandelbrot,julia:multibrot3,julia:multibrot4,julia:multibrot5,julia:multibrot6,phoenix,phoenix:classic}
                        keep the books for this partition alone (repeatable; default: every one).
                        …
  --floor FLOOR         the share of the clock every partition floors at (default: 0.05)
  --discount DISCOUNT   what an unlabelled machine-scored find is worth against the deficit
                        (default: 0.2); 0 reproduces the labels-only deficit exactly
  --prices PRICES       a cost-to-find seed table other than the shipped one
  --low-water LOW_WATER
                        a partition below this many nodes is starved
  --cooldown COOLDOWN   batches a partition waits between refills
  --refill-share REFILL_SHARE
                        share of the loop's clock refills may spend (default: 0.25)
  --lineage-cap LINEAGE_CAP
                        admissions any one lineage may book before the walk stops expanding it
                        (default: 0, no cap). …
  --lineage-discount LINEAGE_DISCOUNT
                        how fast a lineage's contest credit decays with what it has already booked
                        this run: credit x= max(floor, 1/(1+k*n)) (default: 0.5; 0 turns the

  --lineage-discount-floor LINEAGE_DISCOUNT_FLOOR
                        the floor that discount never falls below (default: 0.2)
  --exploration-floor EXPLORATION_FLOOR
                        share of the post-floor slots reserved for lineages no run has ever booked

Reads each gate-surviving location through the head, at the regime its own ledger row names: a
walk's gate render where the row's recorded digest still describes it, the deploy view already on
disk for the standing stock. No deploy-geometry render is ever demanded for a row that was not
scored at one. Resumable in both halves: a picture already on disk is not re-made. There is no
--score-workers here, unlike `harvest`, `reframe` and `walk`, and that is a decision rather than
an omission: what little this renders it renders in this process, and the fan-out was measured not
to pay — 0.88x at two workers and 1.01x at four over the same views. See supply/README.md's

The gallery pass picks locations by how far apart they look, so every location the judge admits
over the junk floor needs one picture that says nothing about a coloring nobody has chosen yet:
the NEUTRAL RENDER, this location's smooth field through one fixed cyclic map at one fixed small
geometry. A frozen DINOv2 reads a unit vector off it and the vector is kept forever, keyed by the
exact location key. Incremental and idempotent: what is already stored is subtracted before
anything is drawn, so a later harvest's admissions are a second run of this. Exits non-zero when
the store does not cover the admitted population. NEEDS THE NETWORK THE FIRST TIME ON A MACHINE:
the encoder is the only third-party weight here and is not re-hosted, so it comes from Hugging
Face — 84.2 MB into ~/.cache/huggingface, once, pinned to the hub revision `models/embedding.py`
names. Every run after it is local, and `models.embedding.verify()` hashes what was cached against

A RECORD is `run` with nothing changed, which is the whole claim it makes: it writes the seats
under a UTC stamp that is never written over, so a person can point at a picture and be
understood. It writes `gallery.jsonl` (one row per seat, carrying the ledger recipe key that IS
the ID, a short alias, the mode, the partition, the dominant colour cell and hue family,
`centered`, the rank and P(>=4), the seat order and the stored picture), `manifest.json` beside
it, and a self-contained page. It reads the flags below and no others — every one `run` carries
and this does not is a flag a record could not pass through, so naming it here is refused rather
than dropped on the floor.

what to call it, and how big:
  --solve-name SOLVE_NAME
                        what to call the solve's own output directory under
                        artifacts/curation/solve (default `tentative_n<N>_<stamp>`, the record's
                        own stamp, so successive records at the same N coexist). …
  --n N                 how many wallpapers to seat (default 1000, the size a record is kept at,
                        where a `run` reads a leg at 20)
  --no-keep             record without putting the stamp on the keep list (default: kept, so a
                        merge's prune spares its seats' pictures until `curate solve release
                        <stamp>`). …

the pool it solves over:
  --fine-bar SCORE      narrow the pool to the rows the gallery-grade head reads at p_fine(>=4) >=
                        SCORE, BEFORE anything else runs — the per-mode bars, the neutral pre-
                        selection and the view are all taken over what is left, so a barred pass
                        is a whole pass and not a filtered reading of an unbarred one. …
  --force-fill          seat as many as an EARLY pool allows: the fine bar and the per-mode bars
                        stop refusing and the best rows available seat, while every distinctness
                        rule still holds. …
  --forced PATH         a MANIFEST of candidate keys, one per line, this pass lifts to the top of
                        the fine column BEFORE the bar, the neutral pre-selection and the cascade
                        — so a forced row clears `--fine-bar`, is its cluster's survivor and is
                        offered ahead of every unforced row. …
  --no-pins             seat NONE of the pinned list, for a comparison. …

the demands:
  --spiral-cap SHARE    cap the share of seats filled from a location the spiral probe calls a

                        target is stated in. …
  --cell-floor {on,off}

                        each of the 48 chromatic cells — kf = 1 against the ceiling's k = 3, one
                        fair share against three, so 20 of a thousand seats where the allowance is
                        63. …
  --mode-ceiling MODE=SHARE
                        cap the share of seats one MODE may take: at most ceil(SHARE * seats

the objective and the search:
  --key {cascade,p_ge4}

  --explain-keys PATH   a MANIFEST of candidate keys, one per line, whose fate this pass records
                        ONE AT A TIME into `rejection.explained` — every key named comes back
                        `seated`, `not in the pool`, or the first rule that refused it. …
  --no-swap             take the greedy seed and stop. …
  --swap-seconds SECONDS
                        a wall budget for the SWAP LOOP alone. …

which gallery:
  a themed gallery, or a collection; the general gallery without either

  --themed CELL         choose a THEMED gallery: one dominant colour cell, over a pool of the rows
                        that cell's dominance block claims, at the RELAXED bar — P(>=3) >= 0.5 for
                        every accepted mode rather than the per-mode rule, because a single-cell
                        pool is q3-grade material and at the per-mode bars there is no pool. …
  --themed-cap SEATS    the palette-group cap a THEMED pass runs under, overriding the computed
                        one. …

  --themed-cap SEATS    the palette-group cap a THEMED pass runs under, overriding the computed
                        one. …
  --themed-radius COSINE
                        the radius the themed diversity rule refuses inside (default 0.07). …

the distinctness rules:
  --neutral-radius COSINE
                        the neutral pre-selection radius applied at pool construction (default
                        0.02). …
  --no-preselection     choose from the whole clearing pool, with no neutral pre-selection
  --no-diversity        choose without the diversity rule, which is the only rule that opens a
                        picture. …

the objective and the search:
  --key {cascade,p_ge4}
                        the sort key the pool is walked in AND the quantity the objective is
                        stated in. …
  --explain-keys PATH   a MANIFEST of candidate keys, one per line, whose fate this pass records
                        ONE AT A TIME into `rejection.explained` — every key named comes back
                        `seated`, `not in the pool`, or the first rule that refused it. …
  --no-swap             take the greedy seed and stop. …
  --swap-seconds SECONDS
                        a wall budget for the SWAP LOOP alone. …
  --augment {on,off}    the augmenting-chain stage: eject one seat, insert TWO in its room. …
  --augment-depth {2,3}
                        how long a chain may be: 2 is one ejection and two inserts, 3 is one more
                        eject/insert pair. …
  --augment-seconds SECONDS
                        a wall budget for the AUGMENT STAGE alone. …
  --explain-seats-of NAME
                        an earlier solve record whose seats this pass explains ONE AT A TIME, into
                        `rejection.explained`: every key it seated comes back either `seated` or
                        with the rule that refused it here. …

the release leg and the sheet:
  --no-render           take every decision and make no release picture. …
  --release-regime WxHssN
                        the geometry the release leg renders at (default 1280x720ss2, which is
                        what every leg that ships a wallpaper ships; 2560x1440ss4 is what the
                        first three gallery passes shipped at)
  --workers WORKERS     worker processes the release leg renders over (default 3, which is this
                        machine's render pool; each spawns below-normal by construction)
  --no-sheet            take every decision and build no contact sheet
  --sheet-out PATH      write the contact sheet there instead of beside the record, which is what
                        a before/after over several variants wants — one directory of sheets to
                        look at

… marks help trimmed to its contract. FRACTAL_WALLPAPERS_HELP=full prints the reasoning whole.

usage: fractal-wallpapers curate solve trace [-h] [--out DIR] [--bundle DIR] [stamp]

For each seat: its gallery.jsonl row, its candidate-ledger row, scores and flatness, its
pool_scores row, its place's supply_scores and locations.jsonl rows, and the walk.jsonl rows from
the place back to its lineage's root. Writes sliced copies of each file (only the rows on those
chains, byte for byte, plus one walk row of every other kind) under files/, counts.json with each
full file's row count, and a page (default artifacts/curation/trace/<stamp>/). Also follows three
of each reject: the lowest-scored places, candidates under the pool gate, and candidates that
cleared it and missed the fine bar. A chain that cannot be followed is listed with the file it
stopped at.

positional arguments:
  stamp         the record (default the newest)

options:
  -h, --help    show this help message and exit
  --out DIR     write the trace here
  --bundle DIR  also write the page into DIR as a portable folder: index.html, page.json, and only
                the pictures it shows, re-encoded small; nothing outside DIR is referred to

usage: fractal-wallpapers walkthrough [-h] [--out DIR] [--stamp STAMP] [--run DIR]

The last step of the README's path. Writes, into one folder: judges-check/, walk-stats/,
candidates/, gallery/ and trace/, each a portable bundle (index.html, page.json and only the
pictures it shows, re-encoded small); the harvest's summary.json, stats.json and the keep list's
keep.jsonl; and an index.html linking them. Nothing is rendered or judged again: the first three
are drawn from the page.json their own commands left, and a page whose command was not run is
listed with that command. Default artifacts/walkthrough/.

options:
  -h, --help     show this help message and exit
  --out DIR      the folder (default artifacts/walkthrough)
  --stamp STAMP  the record to show and trace (default the newest one made here)
  --run DIR      the harvest whose stats and summary go in (default artifacts/harvest)
