Evolution.The system remembers itself.

This is the engineering memory layer for the portfolio ecosystem. Not the changelog (that lives at /changelog and reads the raw commit firehose). Not the project archive (those live at /architecture). This is the editorial registry of architectural moments the system chooses to remember — versioned, typed, append-only.

01 · The registry

17 architectural events recorded across 2026-05-142026-05-19. 16 currently active; the rest carry the superseded flag and remain in the archive for the audit trail.

02 · Filter by category

Seven categories index the registry. Each one is an architectural axis — not a content type. Pick one to narrow the archive, or stay on the unfiltered view to read the full memory.

MilestoneMeta moments — V1/V2/V3/V4/V5 transitions, phase closures, observation windows.

03 · Scrub the timeline

The slider below is the cursor over the engineering memory. Drag the thumb, click a tick, step with the arrow keys, or press play to let the cursor advance from the present back to genesis. The track is a single WAI-ARIA slider — keyboard, mouse, and touch all work; reduced-motion preserves the slider but removes the easing.

    V5 Phase 6 closes — Sensory Awakening complete

    Five sub-PRs landed Phase 6 of the V5 operating constitution: perception telemetry foundation, cognition observer, cinematic pacing engine, memory layer V5 extensions, and the public transparency page that closed the phase. The 60-90 day observation window opened on the same commit; no further perception surface ships until Phase 7's foundation lands.

    V5 § 0.2 makes the post-phase observation window mandatory — skipping it accumulates maintenance debt the doc treats as a circuit-breaker. The Phase 6 surface area was deliberately small (one transparency page, three observers, one memory extension) so the observation period could measure adoption without competing surfaces drowning out the signal.

    Cinematic identity — genesis commit

    The initial cinematic identity: black canvas, Geist typography, the #00d2ff accent, the editorial vocabulary the rest of the ecosystem inherits. Three production project case studies (Cloud Waste Hunter, VibingCoderAI, FormAI), three long-form notes, the V3 roadmap document.

    The genesis commit framed the engineering work as a single coherent surface rather than a sequence of demos. Every subsequent system — Lumina, /lab, /telemetry, /v5/perception, /evolution — has had to inherit that voice or be rejected.

05 · Live adoption

The temporal layer records three kinds of adoption event: the page rendered, a category filter was applied, an event deep-link was followed. All three are aggregate-only — counters by event kind, no per-visitor identifier, no session-id field. The numbers below are cumulative since the layer was first enabled.

Playback verbsCounters for the five primitive operations the slider exposes — seek (click or keyboard jump), scrub (drag), play (auto-advance), pause, step (single frame). Every counter increments fire-and-forget; the slider never blocks on the network.

Timeline engagementThe slider's lifecycle hash. Each visitor session increments mounted at most once when the slider renders, and engaged at most once on the first scrub, seek, step, or play interaction. The rate captures awareness vs use.

V5 · Phase 7 · Temporal Architecture·Append-only registry·Versioned + typed + provenanced

Phase 7 closes here. Four sub-PRs landed the temporal architecture: 7.1 the schema + registry + archive surface, 7.2 the deterministic playback primitive, 7.3 the WAI-ARIA slider above, and 7.4 the per- project mount on /architecture pages (hidden below 768px viewport, opt-in by registry coverage). The observation window now opens before Phase 8 (cinematic topology); no further temporal surface ships during that window.
