The 0.1-femtometer substrate: transactions, not objects — live in your browser.
What you're looking at is moore26, the 0.1 fm/node successor to qi3: a 64³ cubic lattice where every node carries 26 channels of quanta on the 3×3×3 Moore neighborhood — the geometric upgrade over the old 18-channel stencil. At this resolution a nucleon-scale knot spans ~8 nodes across (~500 volumetric sites) — enough interior structure for over-pressure routing, decoupled phase coherence, and macroscopic string-breaking to live as spatial phenomena rather than abstractions.
The four layers, as painted by the engine itself:

Photons arrive, negotiate the offer→incipient→confirm handshake (max 13 concurrent transactions — saturated nodes deflect rather than stack), deposit into winding, thermalize into heat, and — when a saturated tube exceeds 12 nodes — fracture into charged recoil fragments that fly apart. Cut the feed and the core starves: emission keeps shedding rungs until the knot drains to its ground-state floor.

The engine is src/moore26.c: an AoS NodeState lattice with a Σ(winding + mass + flight + photon·nu + heat ± charge) ledger that now audits within ~0.1% across every mechanic — the ledger hunt sealed the heat drain, offer-expiry, minting, truncation, and parity-debit leaks to per-phase zero — photon absorption, rung-shed emission (nu = shed/2, recapture restores it exactly), junction-collide annihilation, photon-photon fusion (γ+γ → +q/−q pair, energy threshold 256), and conserving string-break (endpoint mass + recoil = drained tension). The heat reservoir is a true thermal floor: hot vacuum stochastically re-radiates photons instead of being a one-way sink.
What it is not: a simulation of literal Planck cubes. Nodes are coarse-grained causal units; c is one local hop per tick in the representation. It's a candidate local-causal substrate being characterized — the harnesses measure what it actually does rather than what it should resemble. The known modeling gaps: mass-anchored winding doesn't coherently follow parked mass (knots crawl, not fly), and phase-sync is a relaxation field, not a conserved quantity.
