The night-12 field logs eliminated record starvation (zero [ghost] during
three observed skating windows), so the bug lives in gait APPLICATION on
peers. This adds the [skate] detector to the death-handler tick: a
replicant moving >0.08 u/frame for 90+ frames with BOTH animation
channels idle (legCycleSpeed + bodyCycleSpeed ~ 0) logs one line per
episode + a SKATE matchlog record carrying the discriminating inputs
(legCyc/bodyCyc/cmdSpd/destroyed/mode).
Honest history: the first build keyed on legCycleSpeed alone and
false-fired on every healthy movement phase -- the current peer
architecture poses joints from the BODY channel (s_peerLegCh=0,
AdvanceBodyAnimation mj=1), so legCycleSpeed==0 is NORMAL there. Caught
same-session by the [gimpfeed] silence (AdvanceLegAnimation never runs
on peers); corrected to channel-agnostic before anything shipped.
Bench (skatebench2.sh, 2-node, autodrive walker + kill every ~40s):
7 death/respawn cycles, ZERO skate hits either side -- no false fires,
and light local conditions do NOT reproduce the field skating. Next
provocations: leg-GIMPED walker (the #82 family transition) and 6-player
load; otherwise the detector rides the next cut and the field names the
failing case for us.
