- A world is the place you play in: substrate + laws, via `world()` from `@jgengine/core/world/place` — `{ id, ground: { mode: flat|round|voxel|board, size, surface?, generator? }, physics? }`. Thin is complete: flat with `Infinity` axes for 3D, `board` for 2D, or omit `world` for pure UI/rules games. Never put seed, sky, or vegetation in a world definition — seeds derive from world id + save/run (`seedForPlace`); sky look and foliage scatter are editor-authored scene content, with the engine default sky when the document has none. `ground.surface` carries matter/feel laws (metal vs slime vs felt) that the same rule systems read — swap the surface, not the rules. See [reference.md](reference.md) for the full shape; `environment()` is the legacy consumption path for editor/preset-written scene data, never the starter.

+ Walk feel is data, not code. `movement.feel` sets `groundAcceleration`, `airAcceleration` and `groundFriction` (response rates, 1/s) plus `runMultiplier`, `crouchMultiplier`, jump forgiveness (`jumpBufferMs`, `coyoteMs`) and jump shape (`jumpCutFactor`, `apexGravityScale`, `fallGravityScale`, `landingRecoveryMs`), and `physics` sets `gravity` and `jumpVelocity`. A floaty platformer and a weighty shooter differ only in these numbers; pin them with `measureMovement` (`movement/movementProbe`) in a test.

  Per-instance state belongs on the placement, not in a game-owned map keyed by `instanceId`. Set `SceneObject.state` (opaque) through `ctx.scene.object.setState`/`patchState`; declare `slotInventory` on the catalog entry and mutate contents through `ctx.scene.object.slots`, which enforces the declared capacity and `accepts`. Both replicate and save with the object through the always-on `objects` snapshot module, and `toRuntimeObjectRow`/`fromRuntimeObjectRow` (`@jgengine/core/multiplayer`) convert to and from the host's persisted rows.

+ NPC decisions are a `decisionGraph` behavior: the graph and its blackboard are data, actions are registered by name, and perception or game systems write facts into `behaviorControl(ctx).blackboard(id)` rather than actions querying the world. Set `thinkInterval` so crowds think a few times a second, not every frame, and release movement or claims in `onAbort`.

+ Route on a polygon nav mesh through one `createNavMeshQuery(mesh)` per mesh; price terrain and gate doors with `areaCosts` via `retune`, and keep `maxNodes` bounded so a long request returns a `partial` route instead of stalling a frame.

  ### Fallback-seam diagnostics

  Render seams fall back to placeholders when content is unauthored: default green ground (no environment), primitive capsule/box actors (no `entityModels`/`objectModels` mapping), stylized proxy foliage (no scatter `resolveItem`). These placeholders are sometimes intended, so runtime never changes — but a dev-only, opt-in probe (`@jgengine/core/devtools/fallbackSeams`) tells "unauthored/misconfigured" apart from "intended". The shell arms it via `armFallbackSeams(devtoolsEnabled)`; each seam reports at its choice site (`reportFallbackSeam`), and counts surface through the devtools `fallbacks` probe. Disarmed (production) it is a pure, allocation-free no-op.
