Publish the whistlegraph index for machines, and draw its Future master
Two halves of the same move: make the archive readable by agents, and picture where the form goes next. Machine access. gen-llms.mjs emits llms.txt, index.md (the whole archive as Markdown — 291 works, 294 candidates, 793 legacy codes, every alias and asset URL resolved) and robots.txt, all generated from the same graphs.json/posts.json the site renders, so the machine view can't drift from the human one. Prose lives in llms-prose.md; index.md is generated. Rerun after every gen-model.mjs. The free tier is deliberately everything — graphs.json and posts.json are already served unauthenticated, so gating the same facts would be theater. whistlegraph-llm.mjs meters what's actually worth money with x402 at /api/wg/*: bulk export, the per-work source-video audit trail published nowhere else, and signed redistribution licenses. It fails closed — with no wallet configured every paid route answers 503 rather than serving paid data for free. The license endpoint says plainly that the CDN assets are already public; it sells the licence, not access. Running the sources audit across all 291 works: 290 reconcile exactly between reported counts and summed `contributes` edges. The one that doesn't is lkty, the intentionally-empty record. So Alex's 2la suspicion is mis-filing, not miscounting — it carries 12 contributing posts, not the 10 he flagged. Noted in NOTES.md. Future panels. Seven colored-pencil concepts in marketing/campaigns/whistlegraph-future/, inheriting the arXiv cover's hand. The repository supplied the thesis: wand.mjs is our own VR drawing tool, A-Frame and three.js VRButton are vendored under dep/, and freaky-flowers.txt records drawing it in Ashland on two Quests so the line never had to stop. The whistlegraph line and the wand line are the same hand — so the striped ribbon in every panel is Wand's actual 3D primitive, and panel 05 is documentary rather than imagined. Still open: the x402 wallet is unconfigured, and /api/wg/verify is advertised in every receipt but not yet built. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
