The shipped 1000 levels have a hole: 568 of them need no rotation at all, and
none needs more than two — the mechanic the game is built on is mostly
decoration. This fills the empty band with levels that need at least three.
createDeepLock builds a four-piece chain where each link only releases at a
later orientation, and growDeepLevel packs the rest of the board around it
without opening a shortcut. Candidate pools are built per orientation and left
untruncated; ranking by bend count first starved the packer and capped levels
at four to six pieces instead of twelve.
deadTurnAudit enumerates every reachable (orientation, remaining-set) state to
prove no dead ends exist, and counts how long a player can be left with
nothing to do — solvable and feeling solvable are different things, which is
what "level 2 is impossible" turned out to be about.

Watch an agent play in real time, replayed with the main game's renderer and
animations. The board holds the stage with the live panel beside it: a
millisecond stopwatch, how long the current step has been thinking, steps,
decisions, pieces cleared, dead taps and rotations, then the agent's running
commentary. A banner over the board names who is playing, self-reported by the
agent via --agent.
The page polls unconditionally; the checkbox only decides whether the cursor
chases the newest step, and it follows the agent into its next run once this
one ends. Clicking any step in the feed replays the board at that moment, and
the arrow keys walk it — there is no scrub bar, since the feed already is one.

Let any agent with a shell play a level the way a person does: look at the
board, decide what to tap or which way to turn, read the feedback, decide
again. Every step carries the agent's own reason, so a human can watch and
judge the level from how it was played.
observe() returns what the eye sees — each piece's drawn route, which cells it
crosses, who is sitting on it, and who it brushes past — never "which pieces
can leave". act() goes through the real Game rules; metrics() scores the run
afterwards with the solver.
Pieces are wide, so a route with nobody standing on it can still be blocked by
a neighbour the curve hugs. That is invisible in a cell listing, so every
obstacle is reported, on-route and grazing alike: reporting only the leading
one hid the rest, and in 113 of 581 such cases clearing the blocker sprang a
collision the agent had never been shown.
AGENT.md is the single file an agent reads — rules, board reading, commands,
rating scale, worked example.
