Roadmap updates after Phase N.1 ship:
- Marks N.0 (submodule + project refs setup) as ✓ SHIPPED with the
c8782c9 commit reference
- Updates N.2-N.9 effort estimates with realistic post-N.1 numbers
(originals were 1-2 days / 1 week / 2 weeks; realistic numbers
factor in conformance-test discovery, ACME-vs-Chorizite delta
hunts, and the visual-verification-then-revert cycle that ate
most of N.1's calendar time)
- Adds a "Lessons from N.1" subsection so future N phases benefit
from the rotation-bug-conformance-test pattern, the ACME divergence
insight, and the "whackamole = stop" rule
- Updates total calendar estimate to 3-4 months / 10-12 engineering
weeks for N.2-N.9 (was 2-3 months / 6-8 weeks)
New handoff doc at docs/research/2026-05-08-phase-n3-handoff.md
captures everything a fresh agent picking up N.3 (texture decoding)
needs: phase context, what to read first, suggested task decomposition,
watchouts (especially the ACME-divergence and conformance-test
lessons), and where to start.
