Summary

  • Merge main into north-star so the practice branch carries the showcase site + recent work. The only conflict was docs/NORTH_STAR_METHODOLOGY.md (add/add): both sides authored a different §6 — I kept both (§6 Repository workflow + §7 Differentiation vs SOTA), since they're complementary.
  • Two-layer memory ↔ CogniFold correspondence on the showcase site. The flat "ALL TWELVE MEMORY SYSTEMS · MAPPED TO COGNIFOLD MECHANISMS" table is replaced by two columns:
    • Behavioral · phenomenological — what memory does; each function ↔ its CogniFold mechanism (the level the field describes best).
    • Systems · circuits — where memory lives; each neural region ↔ its CogniFold structure (the CLS substrate).
    • Driven by a new data-driven circuits array added to memory_coverage.json (site copy + src/cognifold/brain API copy), so it stays single-source.
    • The section lede is reframed honestly: these are mappings to the memory taxonomy we can name — well-described at the behavioral layer, less at the circuit, least at the underlying mechanism.

Verification

  • node --check docs-site/js/app.js passes; HTML ids ↔ JS getElementById consistent; both memory_coverage.json files valid (12 systems, 9 circuits, overall 60%).
  • Interactive wiring preserved: hovering/clicking a layer item still highlights the matching brain region and notecard.

Follow-up (same branch)

  • Brain diagram redraw (docs-site/js/brain.js) — the current hand-coded region polygons are misaligned/ugly; a cleaner redraw will land as a follow-up commit on this branch.

…system)

Defines the operating rules for the brain-inspired research program (not specific topics):
- North star = capability; brain-inspiration = hypothesis source (means, not end).
- Driver: problems pull, neuroscience supplies candidates.
- 5-rule constitution: transfer-width success metric, Marr-level borrowing, four-piece validation gate + pre-registered kill, dual-evidence (CogEval + external task), public negative results.
- Selection mechanism as a gated funnel: gap -> literature retrieval -> survey/abstraction -> feasibility ideation -> pre-deployment validation -> consolidate, with cheap paper-level deaths before any engineering spend.
- Daily build-in-public cadence.

# Conflicts:
#	docs/NORTH_STAR_METHODOLOGY.md
- Behavioral · phenomenological (function ↔ CogniFold mechanism) + Systems · circuits (region ↔ CogniFold structure)
- add data-driven `circuits` array to memory_coverage.json (site + API copy)
- renderSystemsTable → renderSystemsLayers; honest lede (taxonomy we can name; behavioral well-described, circuit less, mechanism least)

- replace overlapping hand-tuned polygons with soft anatomically-placed ellipses
- lift all labels into the margins with thin leader lines (no more on-shape / overlapping labels)
- tighten the cerebrum hull, gyri folds and brain stem to enclose the regions
- preserves the full renderBrain/focusSystem/onSelect contract + 7 region→system mappings + 2 annotated nodes + status styling + a11y + animations
