We are exploring multiple directions in parallel — from running verification math directly in the browser, to novel interaction and plotting, to assisted interpretation. ## Where to start - **[`ideas.html`](ideas.html)** — the living idea board. Themes, ideas, open questions, and status. This is the capture surface for new directions. - **[`docs/EXPERIMENTS.md`](docs/EXPERIMENTS.md)** — the experiment tracker: what we are prototyping, in which worktree/branch, and where each one stands. ## How the Lab works Each direction is prototyped as an **isolated experiment**: its own git branch and worktree under `.claude/worktrees/`, so experiments never interfere with one another. Every experiment carries a `PLAN.md`, a runnable prototype, and a `REVIEW.md` feasibility write-up. Overlapping/duplicate code across experiments is expected during this phase and will be consolidated in a later pass. | Theme | Focus | Experiment branch | |-------|-------|-------------------| | 01 · Client-side wrapper | Run documented MET approaches in the browser | `experiment/client-side-wrapper` | | 02 · Modern interaction | Direct, fluid control over stat data | `experiment/stat-interaction` | | 03 · Novel plotting | New verification visuals (3D, objects, maps, uncertainty) | `experiment/novel-plotting` | | 04 · Modernization | Provenance, interpretation, collaboration, access | `experiment/modernization` | ## Status 🧪 **Capture & first prototypes.** This is early-stage R&D. Prototypes use synthetic / sample MET-style data and are intended to surface feasibility signal, not to be production tools.
