Portal Seam¶
Observation card
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Status | partial |
| Verified against | presentation captures 2026-07-26; sealed outcome path 6e69d792 lineage |
| SceneId | portal_gallery_seam_v0 |
| SceneClass | evidence_qualification |
| Channel IDs (authority) | cathedral.probe.outcome (+ region/refinement when probing) |
| Display mapping | NormalRGB + host fallback (legacy magenta) |
| Last qualified run | not yet qualified |
| Claim boundary | No wormhole proof from glyphs or plate color |
Scientific purpose¶
Study seam presentation and transport class structure near portal geometry under Gallery shell:
- Is simulated transport presentation active (glyph warp, curved path)?
- What does the outcome plane say (HitGeometry vs background vs max-steps)?
- Are Unresolved Regions eligible for Region Probe?
Do not start from magenta flood-fill.
Screenshots (role-labeled)¶
Capture A — portal-facing plate¶
File: screenshots/2026-07-26 Canonical Portal Scene with GRIN Film Camera Diagnostics normals.png
Roles in the capture:
| Region of image | Role |
|---|---|
| Large 3D room / portal mesh | world viewport |
| Film inset | Observation Plate |
| Brown/blue face fields on plate | display mapping (NormalRGB-like) |
| Grid-aligned magenta blocks | legacy presentation fallback—not semantic outcome plane |
| HUD legend “Magenta = no hit” (if visible) | legacy presentation chrome—retired as doctrine |
Safe reading: transport presentation can be active (warped portal lettering) while plate still shows large fallback fills. Semantic classes are not determined from the image alone.
Capture B — alternate portal-facing plate¶

Same roles: viewport + Observation Plate + display mapping + legacy magenta. Use as a second presentation example only.
Operator path¶
- Gallery shell · fixed portal-facing pose.
- Transport Lens SNAPSHOT Complete.
- Inspector: outcome histogram.
- Display Mode NormalRGB for teaching orientation only on HitGeometry context.
- Region Probe only from
region_label, never from magenta.

Interpretation boundary¶
Claim boundary
Portal Seam does not verify physical wormholes. Glyph warp ≠ outcome code. Magenta ≠ no hit. Fixture PASS elsewhere ≠ this live pose qualified.
