-Single-agent, single-context systems (AI Dungeon and its descendants) prompt one model to _be_ the world and everyone in it. That breaks in predictable ways over long sessions:
+<p align="center">
+  <img src="./web/docs/src/assets/img/puppet.webp" />
+</p>
 
-- **State Leaks:** Characters know things they had no way of learning, because a model with full context cannot help but use it. The assassin's target greets him by name.
-- **Secrets Refuse to Stay Secret:** "Don't reveal this" is a suggestion a model can argue past, not a mechanism that says no. One clever player question and the conspiracy folds.

+- **State Leaks:** Characters know things they had no way of learning, because a model with full context cannot help but use it.
 - **Consequences Evaporate:** Betray someone, apologize, and they forgive you a turn later because nothing is tracking the betrayal as a persistent fact.
-- **Emotional Drift:** Emotional state is either frozen into a meaningless number (`trust: 40`) or handed to the model to grade itself, producing drifting, arbitrary values.
+- **Stat Drift:** Statistical attributes are either frozen into a meaningless number (`trust: 40`) or handed to the model to grade itself, producing drifting, arbitrary values.
 - **World Rot:** The world state slowly contradicts itself because the model has no structured place to keep it. The locked door is open, then locked, then never existed.
-- **Everyone Is One Person:** Every character shares one context, so every character shares one mind. They can't genuinely surprise each other, lie to each other, or know different things — they're sock puppets on the same hand.

+The model should not be the database, the physics engine and the whole cast simultaneously inside a sliding context window.
 
 ## The Omnia Solution
 
-Omnia answers every one of these failures with the same move: pull the thing that has to stay consistent out of the model and into structured, queryable, code-controlled state.

+The payoff is scenario complexity that **uni-agent systems structurally cannot represent, no matter how good the model gets**.
 
 - **Real secrets, real dramatic irony.** One NPC knows the sword is cursed; the other does not. This holds for hundreds of turns not because the model is disciplined, but because the second NPC's prompts are constructed from an attribute set that simply does not contain the fact. Leaking it would require the engine to have handed it over.
-- **Genuine deception between characters.** Because each character acts from its own bounded view, characters can lie to each other — and be believed — with the truth intact in the world state. A con game, a mole in the party, an unreliable ally: these are queries over who-knows-what, not prompt acrobatics.
-- **Betrayal that stays betrayed.** Events persist as per-observer memory entries with outcomes. An apology adds a memory; it does not delete one.
-- **Divergent accounts of the same event.** Two witnesses to the same scene hold two different buffer entries, filtered through their own aliases and vantage points. Ask them separately what happened and you get testimony, not a transcript.
-- **Identity as information.** Characters refer to each other through subjective alias maps ("the hooded figure" vs. "Bob"). Recognizing someone, being recognized, or staying anonymous are all mechanical states — a masked stranger is a masked stranger until the engine says otherwise.
-- **A physics referee that can say no.** "I pick the lock with a hairpin" is validated against world state by the Architect before anything changes. Failure is a recorded outcome the character remembers, not a narrative the model politely retconned.
-- **Time that behaves.** A world clock advances by validated, per-action deltas, and memory is recalled with psychologically natural phrasing ("earlier today, in the afternoon" — not a timestamp). Long timelines stay coherent because time is data, not vibes.

+- **A physics referee that can say no.** `I pick the lock with a hairpin` is validated against world state by the Architect before anything changes. Failure is a recorded outcome the entity remembers.
+- **Time that behaves.** A world clock advances by validated, per-action deltas, and memory is recalled with psychologically natural phrasing ("earlier today, in the afternoon" — not a timestamp). `TimeOfDay` is deterministic and not based on vibes.
+- **No main character syndrome.** The simulation runs fully autonomously or you act on behalf of any entity. You, the player, are just an entity in the data model, not structurally elevated above the rest of the world. The world can exist without the you.
+- **Granular model control.** Omnia is not locked to a single LLM. You can pick a different model for **every individual step that calls the LLM**. Narration prose that demands richer reasoning gets a frontier model; quick intent decoding or other generators get smaller ones or a model running entirely on your local machine.
 
-The general principle: **anything that must remain true is state; the model only ever supplies behavior.** That division of labor is what lets the cast, the secrets, and the timeline scale without the fiction collapsing.

 ### The Actor Agent
 
-Each character takes turns through an **Actor Agent** that receives a strictly epistemically-bounded prompt: its own attributes (public, plus private ones explicitly granted to itself), its subjective memory buffer, the entities co-present at its location, and the current moment. Nothing else. The actor responds with free narrative prose — what the character does, says, or _thinks_.

-Not every turn needs an outward act; a character may simply think.

 ### Intents & The World Architect
 
-An action becomes an **Intent** — a cheap, declarative, allowed-to-be-wrong proposal. Intents route to the **World Architect**, which validates them against the objective world state (dialogue is exempt; monologue never even arrives) and generates structured deltas — starting with time advancement — that deterministic code applies after strict schema (Zod) validation. The model proposes a change; it never touches the database.

-### Attribute-Level Privacy
+### Attribute Level Privacy
 
-Every entity, item, and location is an attribute bag. Each attribute carries its own visibility (`PUBLIC` or `PRIVATE`) with an explicit access list. "The sword is cursed" is a private attribute checked in code, not a rule the model is politely asked to honor. Privacy lives at the level of the fact, not the entity — a character can be publicly a blacksmith and privately a spy, and even facts about _itself_ are hidden from it unless explicitly granted (amnesia, repression, and unwitting sleeper agents come free with the model).

 The dividend: **prompt-injection-proof secrets.** There is no instruction to override because the information was never serialized into the prompt. Epistemic privacy turns "the model shouldn't say this" (hard, unreliable) into "the model doesn't know this" (trivial, absolute).
 
 ### Spatial Perception
 
-Space is a graph: `world → region → location → point of interest`, connected by portals with sound and vision propagation values. When something happens, it bubbles outward. There are no coordinates, no pathfinding, no collision geometry — a narrative engine doesn't need a tactical simulation, and a discrete graph is sufficient. Today actors perceive co-located entities and their location's visible attributes; portal-propagated perception is on the roadmap.

 Rather than a scalar the model drifts, every significant interaction becomes a ledger entry with an affect vector across OCC-derived dimensions (plus arousal, dominance, and social drive). The model judges a single moment; deterministic code aggregates the ledger over time with decay and attention weighting.

-- **A window into private reasoning.** Monologue intents are the model's in-character thoughts: unperceived by other agents, exempt from validation, but durably logged. You can directly compare what a character _thinks_ against what it _says and does_ — measuring deception, self-consistency, motivated reasoning, or the gap between private appraisal and public behavior.
-- **Knowledge as an experimental variable.** Attribute ACLs let you administer information with precision: give one agent a fact, withhold it from another, and observe propagation, inference, and leakage through dialogue alone. Secret-keeping stops being anecdotal and becomes testable — _provably_, since the engine logs exactly what each agent was ever shown.
-- **Controlled, reproducible conditions.** A scenario is a JSON file; a run is a SQLite database. Identical initial conditions, swappable model providers behind one interface (`ILLMProvider`), and a deterministic mock for baselines. Rerun the white-room experiment a hundred times, vary one attribute, and diff the transcripts.
-- **Multi-agent social dynamics with ground truth.** Because objective world state exists independently of any agent's beliefs, you can score agents' beliefs and claims against reality — hallucination, confabulation, and social conformity become measurable quantities rather than impressions.

A general constraint solver is worth building eventually, but building it before anything is playable is foundational perfectionism that produces beautiful architecture and no game. `v0` keeps the single-call Architect on purpose.

 1. Vector-archive memory and retrieval (closing out the `v0` memory milestone).
