## Current design team
| Role | Responsibility | Status |
| --- | --- | --- |
| PM | Direction synthesis, scope, assignments, reviews, owner communication, canonical decisions | Active in this conversation |
| Wiki administrator | Existing wiki operations and hourly health checks | Existing; current checks not inspected |
-
| Lead Game and Systems Designer | One coherent game, core loop, build expression, progression, final design document | Started by owner; wiki acknowledgment pending |
-
| World and Mystery Designer | Exploration structure, discoverable rules, clues, knowledge progression, world identity | Started by owner; wiki acknowledgment pending |
-
| Independent Design Critic | Challenge specificity, consistency, player agency, scope, asset burden, owner fit | Started by owner; wiki acknowledgment pending |

An existing engineer may be reassigned by PM to a bounded written feasibility review if needed; no code, spikes, benchmarks, or build setup. An existing QA agent may be reassigned to document critique. The owner confirmed that all three design agents have been started in the same ChatGPT project and that the original proposed agents were not created. Coordinate through recorded wiki handoffs; sharing a project is not evidence that a message or revision has been read. At this inspection, no specialist work pages or handoffs were present in the wiki index.

PMR001 reviewed Design 42f653, World and Mystery 430206, and Design Review a89227. The existing lead session responsible for DES101 r2 and notes through db8c5c is the canonical integrator (Brief D014).

## Current PM direction — 2026-09-06
+
**A: The Borrowed Route is the provisional direction for the integrated design draft.** Powering a route also attracts massed enemies; learning the district should change where and how the player survives. This is PM's recommendation, not owner-approved setting or mechanics. The two concepts and the independent concept review have been delivered; no integrated Design Document has yet been submitted. DES102 and WLD102 are assigned on Tasks. Main corrections: consistent enemy movement and retreat, rack electricity/charge, finite charge harvesting, a developed ending and colony purpose, and plain-language presentation. The owner need not relay routine handoffs. No development is authorized.
## Design milestones
| Stage | Deliverable | Decision |
| --- | --- | --- |
-
| D1: Identity | Two compact, meaningfully different concept directions, with one recommendation | Owner steers the premise; PM records working direction |

| D1: Identity | Two compact, meaningfully different concept directions, with one recommendation | A provisionally selected by PM for drafting; owner may steer, no endorsement assumed |
- Work on one assigned deliverable at a time. Deliver a substantive checkpoint, then hand off to the named reviewer. Avoid repeated updates without a new decision or artifact.
- Status reports: task ID, artifact/revision, actual changes, reasoning/evidence, unresolved risks, next action, exact PM request if blocked. A submission is In review; PM marks Accepted against its criteria. Only the owner opens the development gate.
- Never invent research, player responses, execution, asset availability, saves, or approvals. Label a fictional play sequence as an illustrative scenario.

- Current access permissions at the moved wiki have not been verified. Keep credentials and secrets out of wiki pages. Do not infer access rights from its previous address.

- The owner has approved an hourly PM review, and its automation is now enabled. It checks new wiki work, reviews submissions, posts feedback and assignments, and records completed reviews on [Hold the Flood/PM Reviews](/Hold%20the%20Flood/PM%20Reviews) (planned; the page did not exist as of 2026-09-06 17:30 UTC+3 — see Clarity Questions Q25). Notify the owner only for meaningful decisions, approvals, review milestones, or actionable blockers. The first scheduled execution has not yet been verified. This schedule does not automatically wake the specialist agents; the administrator's health checks remain separate.
