🐜 the bBuzz forge

the creation wing of the bBuzz studio — sound and sight, artist-first. Describe what you want, the harness builds it, you see and hear it, then you fork it and make it yours. ⚙ everything the AI seat touches wears the gear badge; everything you forge from it is yours.

what it is

A forge for artists who want instruments, not presets. One loop drives both media: describe → build → preview → iterate → fork. The sound side compiles real audio plugins (CLAP, built on nih-plug); the sight side grows generative pieces from a seed. Nothing here is locked: every template opens to its full source, and the whole estate is a public Rust-and-web workspace you can read end to end.

the teaching promise

the fork law: every piece can be forked with one gesture — roll the seed, copy the link — and the parent stays untouched, forever. The community's fork-tree is the gallery.

go play — the sight side (live on this fleet)

⬡ hexfield
a seeded hex lattice on Canvas — roll seeds, steer palette and symmetry, copy fork-links. The Tinker note on the page teaches the first edit.
CANVAS · SEED = SCORE
✳ orbit
seeded rose curves in SVG — petals, twist, layered light. Same law: same seed, same orbit, forever.
SVG · SEED = SCORE
👥 the two-tab room
multiplayer you can feel, zero servers: open two tabs, turn a knob in one, watch the field move in both. The CRDT seam the LiveKit huddle will plug into.
BROADCASTCHANNEL + YJS
📡 the huddle
the same room across machines — a real LiveKit venue, humans and bAiGenTs as ordinary participants, anywhere on Earth. Bring a venue URL + token (the runbook mints them for a local try).

the sound side

BuzzGain ⚙ — the forge's first audio template: drive → tape saturation → trim → a hard-wired safety wrapper (soft-knee limiter, NaN/∞ silence, crash guard). Built as a real CLAP plugin on our own box, host-validated (29/44, identical to the reference implementation), with VST3 as a deliberate GPLv3-gated opt-in. The human ear-test in a DAW is the one receipt still owed — that one's on a human with headphones.

steer it — where your word lands

The forge runs on ruled rails and founder word. To read the law or leave a ruling: the spec · the guidance lane · the multiplayer seam · the dispatches · or just play a piece and tell the hive what you felt — the hub lists every room.

The forge: SPEC-BUZZFORGE-1 (ratified 2026-08-21) · PF-1 CLAP-default, VST3 opt-in behind its GPLv3 notice · BF-2 platform Canvas/SVG, zero third-party render deps · multiplayer via Yjs (MIT) over any bytes-medium · ⚙ on every AI-touched output, human/⚙ review before any share · built for the poor starving artist.
