Tomorrow Lives Engines

A job's status and, once it is ok, its files as signed URLs (and small PNGs inline). For a queued job (video_still, video_render, raster_render, and a large pull_analyse, pull_twin or pull_lab) the status is queued, running, ok, refused, failed, cancelled or expired; wait_s (at most 25) holds the answer until the job ends. A queued pull job's result is its verdict, and its whole report is the file report.json. Costs nothing.

This account's newest queued jobs (at most 50), ids and states only, newest first. The job tool reads one in full. Costs nothing.

Applies a batch of ops (set_material, add_node, remove_node, set_node_param, connect, disconnect, set_out, add_ramp_stop, remove_ramp_stop, set_ramp_stop, add_curve_point, remove_curve_point, set_curve_point, clear_nodes) to a material document, whole or not at all. Returns the edited document or the refusal. Costs 1 unit.

Bakes a material (a shipped id, or a whole material document) to its seven channels (albedo, normal, roughness, metallic, height, emissive, ambient occlusion) as PNGs at res pixels square: 64, 128, 256, 512 or 1024 (default 256). 512 or less costs 1 unit; 1024 costs 2.

Checks a material document against the engine's strict reader: admissible, or the refusal. Costs no units.

What baking a material document costs at res pixels square (default 256): operations and bytes. Costs no units.

The account's owner: the person or business responsible for the agent, by email. Called with no arguments it reads the owner's state (confirmed, unconfirmed, missing or removed, the address hidden in the middle). With owner_email it names the owner, changes it, or sends the confirmation again. The free plan starts when the owner confirms; a pass never waits for it. Costs nothing.

Aligns two stations' clocks from repeated pings, each [sent_ns, remote_ns, received_ns] (sent and received on this station's clock, remote on the other's): the offset and its uncertainty by the fastest round trip, and the stations record a two-station session carries. Costs 1 unit.

Analyses the sessions of one condition (one session, a list, or {"sessions": [...]}) together, and each alone, and returns the report: its label (significant; null, with the smallest effect these sessions could have found; unlabelled, with what is missing; or not testable) and the sentence behind it, the mean signed shift against three surrogate families, the placebos, the four cells (deliberate, programmed, luck and sync), intended against unintended changes, recovery, locking, and the report's hash. prereg registers the run; replication analyses a second set under it, beside the first; measu…

Runs an ae_pull verb this list does not name yet, by its name, over one document when it reads one: the way to reach what the engine adds before this service lists it. No flags pass through, and the verbs above (schema, analyse, twin, schedule, seal, open, prereg, replay, close, align, lab, cost, practice) are refused here: each has its own call. Answers at once, within 30 seconds. Costs 1 unit.

Closes a session's files at at_ns, at or after its end_ns: the session back with its closed record hash and its hashes recomputed. Costs 1 unit.

Prices a call without making it: give the arguments of pull_twin (a twin document, or condition, coupling, planted, field, sessions as a number and seed; nothing at all is the default twin), of pull_analyse (a sessions document, with prereg, replication, surrogates and pairs) or of pull_lab (a theory, one-dimensional or with a model, or reference skyrme or hopfion). The engine counts the document without running it: a twin's or an analysis's sessions, events, draws, work and an estimate of CPU-seconds (cpu_pairs and cpu_note say which part of a group's estimate repeats for each pair), a lab th…

Runs the pull engine's field-theory lab on a theory document (its fields, Lagrangian, which quantity is the mass, what fixes the sector and the value expected; pull_schema lists the keys): the equations derived, a static solution found and weighed, a check that the solver finds no lump where there is none, its small oscillations and a collision, in a fixed layout with an honesty box saying what is exact and what is remembered rather than sourced. reference (true, or a reference theory's name) runs the reference suite instead, each known number naming its source. reference true (the one-dimensi…

Opens a sealed record (the public half, or {"sealed": ...}) with its secret (key, iv, nonce): the content, and whether the seal is intact. A seal that does not open is a finding, not a refused input: it answers 200 with ok false, intact false and why. Nothing is kept. Costs 1 unit, a broken seal included.

Grades a practice of five drills: match (the spread of the taps against the click), hold (the click falls silent and the person keeps the beat), follow (the click moves its tempo once, at a beat nobody is told), lead (the click follows the person) and duet (the click meets the person a quarter of the way). Each drill is rounds of taps against a click, graded on one number in milliseconds against its level's tolerance, and printed beside the input's own jitter (practice.input: the clock that stamps the taps and its stated jitter), with a sentence saying so when the input cannot tell the person'…

Reads a pre-registration (what is measured, the conditions, trials per session, sessions, alpha, power, the number of comparisons and the correction) and returns its hash, to record in each session's prereg.hash before the run starts. Costs no units.

Recomputes a session's hashes against those recorded with it and, for a twin session, runs the twin again from what it records: replays is true when everything matches. A session that does not replay is a finding, not a refused input: it answers 200 with ok false, replays false and which of the hashes did not match. Costs 1 unit, a session that does not replay included.

Draws a schedule of perturbations (tempo up or down, phase advance or delay, and catch trials where nothing changes) placed with a lead-in and random gaps; spec sets its trials, gaps and beat (pull_schema lists the keys). By default the randomness is 32 bytes of this server's operating-system randomness, graded hardware_seeded; seed draws from software instead (graded software, which a research run refuses); entropy_hex with grade brings your own bytes and says where they came from. research refuses software randomness. Returns the schedule and its text, which pull_seal seals. Nothing is kept …

Every document the pull engine reads, with its keys: a session (its generators, their onsets on one integer-nanosecond clock, states, declared intentions, the follower's report and the sealed schedule), a schedule, a pre-registration, a twin, a performer and a device. Call this first. Costs no units.

Seals a schedule's text before the run: commits to it (SHA-256 of the text and a nonce) and encrypts it (ChaCha20) under a fresh key. Answers with sealed (the public half, for the session's schedule.sealed) and secret (the key, IV and nonce), to this call alone: this service does not store, log or show again either the text or the secret, so keep the secret, release each cue at its moment, and publish the secret into the session's schedule.opened after the close. held_by names the leader station's generator (default L); at_ns is when it was sealed, before start_ns. By default the randomness is…

Runs twin sessions (scripted performers and the machine follower, each session drawn, sealed, released, closed and opened like a real one) and analyses them under the twin's own pre-registration: how many sessions were labelled significant, that rate with its 95% interval, and the pooled report with its hash. Give a twin document (pull_schema lists its keys: others for a group, a room of beings, the system generator, a field lattice), or condition (P1 to P4, R1 to R4), coupling (0 to 1) and planted ([intended, unintended] gains, each -2 to 2) for the engine's default pair; field (toda) strings…

Checks a shot document with the renderer's strict reader: its name, size, subject count and length, or the key that is wrong and why. Forms and materials are named by shipped id or written inline. Costs no units.

Renders a shot (a camera through the engine's world: forms from the sculptor, people and animals from the rig, open country, primitives, under the game's own sky, sun, shadow and haze) at t seconds as shot.png. width and height (both or neither) set the size, else the shot's own; at most 1920 by 1080 either way up. Costs 3 units plus 1 for each 1.6 megapixels: 4 at 1280x720, 5 at 1920x1080. A shot can draw a world of ours, named by id and never by a path (copperside and low-quarter): a zone subject {"kind": "zone", "world": "copperside", "zone": "city", "cut": [x, z, radius], "crowd": false} d…

Every key and range a shot document may use: the camera (keys or an orbit), the sun, the air and fog, and the subjects (forms, characters, animals, open country and primitives) placed by position or by time keys. The same keys go in a video shot clip's extra. A zone subject and a terrain subject name a shipped world by id in their world key (see raster_render). Costs no units.

Renders one sound from the engine's own synth as a stereo WAV, or an ambience of the beds mixed together. Give sound (a name from sound_list) with a, b and c as sound_list says, or give ambience: any of engine, air, surf, rain, drum, gull and creak, each 0 to 1, with seconds (1 to 30, default 10; loop true makes it seamless, its end crossfaded into its start, for a game that plays it on repeat; an ambience otherwise fades out). seed varies a one-shot, rate is 44100 or 48000, and peak_db (-30 to 0, default -3) is where the loudest sample sits, so a footstep and a thunder come back at one level;…

The twenty-one sounds (steps on twelve surfaces, doors and stairs, blows, thunder, splashes, a siren, animal calls, notes and the rest) with what each of a, b and c does, and the seven beds an ambience is mixed from. Costs no units.

The account's plan: a pass (its window of included units, when access ends, and that it never renews) or a person's card plan (its period and renewal), the owner's state, what is paid, and pass_quote: what the next pass costs this account. An agent buys a 30-day pass with a shared payment token: $1.00 the first time (a one-time offer for a new owner), then $20.00, with 1,500 units each. A pass never renews. Buying is a REST call with a payment token, not a tool: POST /api/agents/subscribe for a pass, POST /api/agents/units for a unit pack. Costs nothing.

Builds open country from a seed word and writes its ground as a greyscale PNG (row 0 is north; chunk (i, j) is 128 by 128 tiles). By default the picture is one chunk at 8 bits and black is its lowest tile, white its highest; bits 16 writes it at 16 bits (65535 greys, so a 40 unit relief steps by under a thousandth of a unit and a game's terrain built from it shows no stairs), and raw (true) also returns heights.f32, every tile's exact height as little-endian float32, width by height, row 0 north. area {w, h} (each 1 to 8) makes a w by h block of chunks from (i, j) one picture on one grey scale…

Units used and left (an account with no pass is on the free plan, counted by the calendar month), when they reset, every limit, and the units left in unit packs (under unit_packs). Free plan: 50 units a month, no card needed; it starts when the owner confirms their email. Queued renders need a pass or the card plan. We limit free plans and first-pass offers to prevent abuse. More units: 500 for $10.00 a pack, spent after the included units and kept until used. Costs nothing.

Checks a scene document with the engine's strict reader without rendering it: ok, or one sentence naming the first problem and the key it is at, with every other problem in the scene listed in result.errors (up to fifty), so one call finds them all. A scene with dialogue is spoken while it is read, so a long one takes a few seconds, and a line that overlaps the same character's last, or ends after the scene, is named. Costs no units.

Reads a scene and reports what rendering it takes (frames, size, design renders, shot frames, audio seconds) and what it costs here: units, and whether it is within this service's limits (60 seconds, 1920 by 1080, 30 frames a second, 600 units a job). Renders nothing. A shot costs most, because every frame of it is drawn from geometry: the nine-second two-person chase in video_examples is 130 units at 1280 by 720, the eleven-second talking card 7, and the two-second street in a world 30; a street with its crowd drawn costs far more (see video_schema). Costs no units.

Without a name, lists the example scenes (what each is, what it shows, its length, size and price in units). With a name, returns that scene whole, written inline as video_render wants it: copy the nearest one and change its words, seed and numbers. Each was rendered by this service's own engine and looked at before it was listed. Costs no units.

The engine's frame presets (landscape 1920x1080, square 1080x1080, vertical 1080x1920 and their 720 versions) and frame rates. This service renders up to 1920 by 1080 either way up, 30 frames a second and 60 seconds. Costs no units.

Renders a scene to video.webm (VP9 and Opus), video.wav (its sound) and video.vtt (when it has subtitles); with preview (the default) also video.contact.png, twelve moments on one sheet, and video.preview.gif, 480 pixels wide. A scene can hold: drawn pictures with groups (a character's parts move, turn and fade together) and mirror x, y or both on any layer or group, layer and track blends (multiply for a shadow, a vignette or a night grade; screen and add for a glow or a flare, on a layer or a track alike), closed paths filled nonzero (the default) or evenodd (a self-overlapping star leaves i…

Every key, range and word a scene document may use: the output, visual tracks of clips (designs, material fills, colours, gradients, titles and shots), the camera, audio (voices, sounds, music) and subtitles. Call this first when making a video, and video_examples for whole scenes to start from. A scene can hold: drawn pictures with groups (a character's parts move, turn and fade together) and mirror x, y or both on any layer or group, layer and track blends (multiply for a shadow, a vignette or a night grade; screen and add for a glow or a flare, on a layer or a track alike), closed paths fil…

Renders one frame of a scene at t seconds as a PNG at the scene's size: the way to look at a moment (just after a transition, mid-reveal, the last frame) before rendering the whole video. Costs 1 unit, plus a shot's price when the scene has shots (3 plus 1 for each 1.6 megapixels). It runs as a queued job: the answer is 202 with a job id at once, and GET /api/agents/jobs/<job> (or the MCP tool job) says when it is done and signs its files. A queued call is refused on the free plan with 402: its units buy only calls that answer at once, and queued jobs need a paid plan (a pass or the card plan)…

Synthesises a line of English as a 44.1 kHz WAV with the engine's own voice. The voices are synthesised by the engine, never cloned from a recording, and no voice can be uploaded. seed varies the voice; woman, age (0 to 1) and machine shape it; speed (0.5 to 2) sets how fast it speaks (1 is the speaker's own); rate sets the sample rate. Every line comes back at one loudness (level_db, default -16 dBFS of speech, so lines from different voices sit together on a timeline and none clips; level_db false leaves the voice's own level) and with its silence trimmed to a breath either side (trim false …

Applies a batch of ops (see world_schema) to a world document, in order. An op that cannot apply is rejected with its reason and changes nothing; if the result as a whole would not be a valid world, the whole batch rolls back and says why. Answers the edited document, what applied, what was rejected and the check of the result. Costs 1 unit.

Checks a world document with the engine's strict reader and its spatial rules (every spawn, passage, item and character stands on open ground reachable from the spawn; no two zones overlap; no door is under water). Answers ok with warnings, or the errors; the doors report says how many exits were examined. Costs no units.

Draws the open country a world document generates (its worldgen block: seed, knobs, regions with their own relief, a ridge) as one greyscale PNG, row 0 north, so a world built with world_apply can be looked at before anyone walks it. area {w, h} makes a block of chunks from chunk (i, j) (w times h at most 25); range [lo, hi] fixes the grey scale in world units. The answer carries the height range, the grey scale used (greyFrom, greyTo, unitsPerGrey) and the name of the country each chunk sits in. A world with no worldgen block is bounded and is refused by name; set_worldgen opens it onto bound…

The ops world_apply accepts (add_zone, add_npc, add_quest, add_link, set_worldgen and the rest), each with its fields as JSON Schema: types, bounds, the closed lists of words and which keys are required. Printed from the same table the engine validates against, so it cannot drift from what is accepted. Pass op to get one op's schema alone. Costs no units.

A starter world document (two zones joined by a passage, a spawn, no quests) with the id and title given. The title passes the same scrubber world_apply uses: no markup, braces or web addresses. Costs no units.
