A numbers float file adapts decimal literals to a fixed operand or slot, and refuses to
promote a computed int to a float implicitly: there it is almost always float bits. Explicit
float(x) is always allowed.
render3d's numbers are float, converted by tools/migrate/floatbits.py - a whole-program
inference of which ints carried IEEE bits (union-find over flows, calls, returns, buffers,
nested buffers and lexical scopes) and a rewriter to operators, Math.* and float literals,
with float_bits / float_from_bits left only where bits really cross (runtime scratch
buffers, mixed buffers). Seed regenerated.

Every R3D_* read goes through r3d_env_has / r3d_env (env.ludic): a headless
build honours them as before, a windowed build only when R3D_DEV is set to
anything but "0", so a shipped game never reaches a debug view, feature kill,
file writer or hardware fake. Documented in docs/SHIPPING.md.

r3d_hdr_calibrate(peak, paper, black) feeds the tonemap's and the overlay's HDR10 variants and
the display's HDR metadata; ov_hdr_nits draws a calibration patch at a number of nits.
gpu_caps_probe asks the running Vulkan renderer's instance instead of making and destroying a
second one under Streamline's interposer, which left the next swapchain rebuild calling address 0.
The overlay gets an HDR10 variant, and the tonemap brightens HDR highlights by one factor rather
than per channel.

A panel and its label alternated the white and font textures, and every switch closed the overlay's
draw range: 77-91 ranges a frame in town. The font atlas is now bound beside the image texture for the
whole flush, and v carries 4 x the vertex's mode (0 image, 1 font, 2 flat colour) on top of its real
coordinate, so only a different image texture or a clip rectangle closes a range. Town: 24 ranges.
OpenGL frames byte-identical at all five viewpoints; MoltenVK with validation adds no message.

The last of milestone 1: no OpenGL call is left in render3d outside gpu.ludic but the clock
and the CPU-side buffer helpers.
- gpu_program builds a program and remembers the variant it came from (vertex, fragment and
defines as one line - the SPIR-V manifest's key), so a backend that cannot compile at run
time finds the pipeline for the same handle. gpu_use_program and gpu_program_free replace
32 uses and 2 frees; the overlay's program is recorded under overlay.vert|overlay.frag.
- gpu_query_new / _begin / _end / _result carry R3D_PROF's timers.
- gpu_open, gpu_vsync, gpu_renderer_name and gpu_resize_check carry the context.
- r3d_program_tess is gone: nothing called it and no tessellation shader exists.
- R3D_GLCHECK also checks after framebuffer and renderbuffer changes, viewport, draw buffers,
program use, texture parameters, the resize check and between frames.
OpenGL frames are byte-identical at the five viewpoints; 59 self-tests pass with and without
R3D_GLCHECK, with no GL error; ludic-dev test 140 passed.

The overlay flushed into whatever framebuffer was bound last, which raised GL error 1286 on
every run: ov_flush now binds the screen and its viewport before it draws.
R3D_GLCHECK=1 checks each draw, clear, blit, upload and attachment for a pending error or an
incomplete framebuffer and names the target, and each sampler bind for a texture with no image
or a mipmap filter without mipmaps. Off, it costs one flag test.
Still open: an intermittent 1286 reported at "terrain shadow bake" after the self-tests (about
half the runs), and one macOS "unloadable" texture warning at shutdown while the post targets are
freed. No frame samples a bad texture.

Framebuffers and their attachments, renderbuffers (multisampled too), draw and read buffers,
completeness checks, blits, viewports, clears, the screen framebuffer, the multisample enable,
the wireframe switch and GL error checks now go through gpu_fb_* / gpu_rb_* / gpu_viewport /
gpu_clear / gpu_blit / gpu_check, and no other file names them. Each call is the one GL call it
replaces, in the same order: the fixed viewpoints render bit-identically and the game's
self-tests report exactly what they did.
What is attached to each framebuffer - colour slots, a depth texture or one layer of an array,
renderbuffers and their samples - is recorded as it is attached, for a backend that builds
render passes and image views. gpu_read_screen is the frame read-back a photograph takes.
R3D_GLCHECK=1 checks, around every draw, clear and blit, that the bound framebuffer is complete
and that no error is left behind, naming the framebuffer. It has already narrowed the old
"gl error 1286 at terrain shadow bake": the error is pending before a draw after the map self-
test, so it comes from a call that is not a draw, clear or blit.

Every vertex array, vertex and index buffer, attribute pointer, instance divisor, stream
upload and draw call now goes through gpu_mesh_* / gpu_buffer_* / gpu_draw_*, and no other
file in the package names them. A Mesh records its layout as it is built - which buffer
feeds which attribute at what stride and offset, per vertex or per instance - so a backend
that bakes vertex input into a pipeline can read it back. On OpenGL each call is the GL it
replaces, in the same order: the five fixed viewpoints render bit-identically and the game's
self-tests report exactly what they did before.
scatter_attach takes the mesh rather than its vertex array; a mesh now frees every vertex
buffer it owns (glTF meshes used to keep all but the first); the two helpers nothing called,
mesh_grid_patches and mesh_instance_buffer, are gone.

Vulkan cannot compile GLSL when the game starts, so the programs render3d builds are listed
(shaders/variants.list, 45 of them, collected with R3D_PROGRAMS_LOG across the self-tests, the
screens, the viewpoints and the debug switches) and `ludic-dev shaders` compiles each into
shaders/spv/<id>.vert.spv and .frag.spv with a manifest of what the backend needs: each
stage's uniform block and member offsets, the samplers' bindings, the vertex inputs.
The GLSL is the renderer's own, assembled as programs.ludic assembles it, through glslang's
relaxed Vulkan mode, so gpu_uniform / u_* can write the same uniforms into a block on Vulkan.
Bindings are assigned by the tool (glslang's own numbering put several samplers of one stage
on binding 0): the vertex block is 0, the fragment block 1, samplers from 2 in name order,
shared across both stages. Every stage passes spirv-val; `ludic-dev test` rebuilds and compares
wherever the Vulkan SDK is installed.

Render state (depth, blending, culling, colour writes, alpha-to-coverage, depth bias,
scissor) and uniforms go through gpu_* / u_* and nowhere else; OpenGL state is cached and
only changes reach the driver. Frames are bit-identical to before at the fixed viewpoints.
R3D_GFX=gl|vk or gpu_request chooses a backend, falling back to OpenGL with a reason.
gpu_caps_probe() asks Vulkan, on Windows, for the 1.3 floor, ray tracing, mesh shaders, the
NVIDIA RTX generation, Reflex and HDR colour spaces, for a game's settings to grey out what
a machine cannot use; R3D_CAPS pretends to be a given card for tests.

ov_text, ov_text_w and ov_text_wrap decode UTF-8 instead of drawing bytes 32-126. font.json
may list the atlas's code points in "codes"; an atlas without it reads as before (ASCII
from "first"). A missing code point draws as '?', a cut-off sequence as one '?'.
overlay_font(dir) loads or swaps the atlas at run time, for a language with its own script.

`Gl.*` binds the whole OpenGL 4.1 core API — every entry point of the
platform gl3.h with every GL_* constant, generated by `ludic-dev glgen`
with per-call ABI thunks. Windowed builds get an NSOpenGLContext on the
existing window at Retina resolution; headless builds render into an
offscreen CGL context, so a program that uses Gl.* renders and
screenshots identically under the test harness. It links gl.ll, the
thunks and OpenGL.framework only when used; every other build stays
byte-identical.
packages/ludic.render3d is a physically based renderer written on that
surface: HDRI image-based lighting, GPU-generated terrain with scanned
PBR materials, CDLOD, cascaded shadows, glTF with skinning, instanced
vegetation with impostors, procedural grass, water, SSAO, and an HDR
pipeline with bloom, auto-exposure and ACES.
It also carries this session's work on it: the terrain at half its cost
(10.3 -> 5.4 ms of frame), the streaming hitch that got worse the longer
you played, a resize that emptied the world, and the packaging that lets
a game use the renderer from its own repository — `ludic assets`, the
material manifest shipping with the package, and shader lookup falling
back to the install root. See changes/ for each, with its numbers.
The camping game that drove all of it has moved out to its own
repository, Maroon Lake; examples/rendering/smooth.ludic stays as the
renderer's example here.
