+Cesium's free look (Shift+drag, which turns the camera in place) works only
+below 1,000 km. Above that height a few drags could turn the whole planet out of
+frame and leave only stars, so Shift+drag does nothing there. Cesium also turns
+the camera in place for a drag that starts on the stars below its trackball
+height (7,500 km by default); that height is lowered to 1,000 km, so such a drag
+orbits the globe above it, as it does higher up, and a tilt (drag or touch)
+while the screen centre is on the stars there tilts about the planet's edge or
+does nothing, wherever it starts. Rotation drags that start on the planet, and
+zoom, are unchanged. How much of the frame shows the planet's surface is
+measured by casting a 32×18 grid of view rays at the ellipsoid; while the scope
+mask is on (the default) only the rays inside its keyhole count, since the mask
+hides or dims the rest. Voice tilt and in-place turns of a free 3D camera above
+1,000 km stop when about a tenth of the frame still shows the surface (or about
+as much as it showed when it started), never less than about 1% of the visible
+frame, and a view that already shows less only keeps or gains what it has. A
+turn that cannot go half a degree further without crossing that limit is refused
+with a reason instead of reported as done, and a turn it accepts turns at least
+that half degree. A voice tilt to an angle (or a bare tilt, to -45°) that the
+limit stops short of is aimed at the angle where it stops, and its result names
+that angle (`pitchDeg`) with a `note`. A turn that keeps or gains surface is not refused, even after
+the window has been resized, except that near the limit, where the planet's edge
+crosses the sample grid, sampling wobble can occasionally refuse one (most often
+above about 15,000 km and on phone or ultrawide frames); nothing then turns away
+from the planet. A turn that starts where the last voice turn left the camera
+keeps that turn's limit, or a higher one if the planet now fills more, so
+repeating the request does not take any more; once anything else has moved or
+turned the camera, a turn is measured from what is on screen. When a camera move
+ends above 1,000 km with no ray on the surface, the camera turns straight down
+at the same position and heading. The end of a move is taken from Cesium's
+move-end event and from a check of its own that samples the pose every 250 ms
+after a move starts and acts once it has held for half a second, because at some
+of these poses the camera drifts by a rounding error every frame and Cesium
+never sees it stop. That check keeps watching until move-end arrives, recovering
+once after each move that comes to rest, and gives up five minutes after the
+camera last moved. Limb glow, and a surface sliver up to about one grid cell
+thick (some 50 px on a 900 px tall frame), can count as out of view. The
+zoom-out guard above keeps wheel and pinch zoom-outs in view; this catches the
+other ways a move can end looking away, such as a saved or shared view that did.
+Views with more surface than that, such as the oblique orbital Director shots,
+are left as they are, and so are tracked or locked cameras, a camera flight in
+progress, a Director scene while it plays (holds included), a pointer held
+down on the globe (a drag held still; with several fingers down, until the
+last is released) and the 2D and Columbus modes; a check a flight, scene or
+held pointer defers runs once it ends. A release outside the window that the
+page never sees counts as given once the window loses focus, the page is
+hidden, the canvas loses the pointer's capture, or the pointer moves with no
+button down. A Director
+shot loaded or replayed outside a run is not a playing scene. A view that loses
+its surface without a camera move (a resize, or turning the scope on) is left as
+it is until the next move. A voice turn requested while the camera is tracked is
+judged by the pose voice's release of the follow camera will leave, before that
+release, so a refused turn keeps the tracking.

+## Wildlife Sightings — iNaturalist and Acartia
+
+**Wildlife Sightings** (`wildlife-sightings`, share-link token `9`) is off by
+default in the Wildlife group between Events and Weather. CONFIRMED and six
+taxa presets round-trip in share links. Voice is off for this layer for now;
+it is outside analyst queries and DETECT. Community observations are not a
+census; private records are excluded.
+
+`/api/inaturalist/observations` requests verifiable wildlife in view within
+48 h (whales 7 d). Recency uses observation time: the `d1` date filter and a
+strict rolling cutoff. Date-only rows qualify only when their day starts
+within the window. Close views use a cached random sample of at most 200 rows;
+global samples use newest observations first. Observation caches last five
+minutes (global ten minutes), with stale fallback for at most one hour.
+
+Observations and grid tiles share a paced priority queue: a four-call burst,
+then one request per second, at most four in flight, ≤60/minute and a persisted
+8,000/day budget. Superseded consumers leave before dispatch. The recovered
+queue tail isolates failures; ordinary grid failures do not fail observations.
+Provider 429 cooldown is shared; 5xx cooldown is resource-specific. Failed tiles
+retain good cells for at most one hour. Stale replies carry `X-Data-Stale` and
+known `Retry-After`. Failures keep filters and drawn rows, reporting DEGRADED
+with retry timing; logs exclude request URLs and upstream exception text.
+A partial failure still draws what arrived: a failed iNaturalist request, or
+one failed half of an antimeridian view, keeps a good Acartia reply and the
+other half, retains that area's last iNaturalist rows and reports DEGRADED.
+The update fails outright only when every requested source failed. Each failed
+source keeps its HTTP status and `Retry-After` (the HTTP status counts when no
+`X-Upstream-Status` is sent), and the next request waits out the longest 429 or
+5xx cooldown among them. One update requests both sources, so the cooldown
+holds the whole layer; a fully successful refresh clears it.
+
+`/api/acartia/sightings` adds Salish Sea marine mammals within 45.5–50.5° N,
+126–121° W, cached ten minutes and stale for at most 24 h. A valid empty
+snapshot, including one whose rows all fall outside coverage or the species
+checks, is a fresh success that clears earlier rows; only a malformed or failed
+upstream reply serves stale and starts a retry cooldown. WHALES accepts only
+recognized cetaceans; other identified marine mammals appear under ALL or
+MAMMALS. Sensitive iNaturalist locations remain 0.2° privacy cells; Acartia
+positions are rounded to 0.01° on the server. Acartia comments are never retained.
+Observer identity is retained only for photo attribution.
+
+`/api/inaturalist/grid` supplies a dedicated, nonpickable billboard density glow,
+with a view-relative density ramp from cool teal to warm amber. Overlapping
+Gaussian splats span four logical cell widths; mono and CRT styles follow map
+and cockpit vision changes. Empty snapshots paint nothing. Full footprints
+stay inside the globe limb with a 5% radius margin; opacity fades from full at
+3,000 km to zero at 8,000 km camera altitude. Culling and cached coordinates
+add no per-frame work and leave sighting counts intact.
+
+Only real sampled observation rows produce taxon badges at their public
+positions. The badges use 28 px screen buckets, a 22 px overlap check and a
+5,000-observation cap. Tinted circles have a white Material Symbols glyph and
+1.5 px dark outline, remaining 12–22 px at all distances, including selection.
+Glyphs: birds `raven`, mammals `pets`, reptiles `egg_alt`, amphibians
+`water_drop`, fishes `set_meal`, insects `bug_report`, arachnids `pest_control`,
+plants `eco`, fungi `umbrella`, other animals `category`, unknown `question_mark`.
+A plain circle displays while the icon font loads. Row counts read
+“{n} sightings in view”, using visible grid totals when available.
+
+Views request at most six tiles, coarsening zoom for complete coverage. Server
+and client keep bounded 400-tile caches for 15 minutes. Cached, stale and
+adjacent-zoom tiles publish before network waits; each arriving tile replaces
+its covered area, including healthy empty tiles. Grid tiles publish even while
+the independent observation request is pending or failed. Enable waits for one
+camera settle; camera acquisition uses moveEnd with a 600 ms debounce. The
+documented UTFGrid endpoint's unspecified cell records have a schema guard;
+see `KNOWN-ISSUES.md`.
+
+Ambient cards use a fixed 96 px image width and a short creator name credit,
+with a bounded frame cache. New cards fill free screen regions; visible cards
+survive a random sample refresh until they leave the view or observation
+window. The 110/125 km show/hide thresholds provide hysteresis; cards scale
+and fade gradually through 120 km. Only painted photos suppress their own
+badge and label. Labels yield to painted cards, then compete by ambient score;
+repeated translated names within 80 screen pixels yield to higher-priority
+content. At most 150 labels enter the host. Titles prefer a word boundary for
+ellipses; accessible names remain complete. Selected thumbnails or names use
+the shared selected chrome and paint lane, with no canvas source link.
+
+Clicking a badge, label or photo flies to its supplied position and opens a
+compact anchored photo card. Selection stays pinned across camera, filter and
+sample changes until explicit deselection or layer disable. Its medium image
+uses `object-fit: contain`, with names, compact observed age and creator/licence.
+The card is the single source link to iNaturalist. Obscured sightings also stay
+text-only; Acartia stays text-only with provider credit and whale guidance,
+and its source link is always `https://acartia.io/`, never a contributed URL.
+Placement avoids actual HUD, toolbar and rail rectangles, panning only when
+necessary while preserving zoom. Escape, close or an outside click closes the
+card and clears selection. Camera/layout changes reposition the card without
+an idle frame listener; shell teardown also removes its host and subscription.
+
+Attribution appears in the layer row and Data attribution popover:
+“iNaturalist contributors · licences per record”, plus Acartia when drawn.
+Disable/destroy releases the glow collection, texture atlas, timers, queues and
+style listeners. Synthetic fixtures cover privacy, acquisition, rendering,
+selection and card placement. Deterministic operation checks run in `npm test`;
+wall-clock budgets run in `npm run test:perf`. All 11 locales are supported.

Left/right describe visible globe motion, while `rotate` turns the camera in place. Omitted globe direction/mode default to right/continuous; explicit values prevail. Other camera motions keep their once default. Admission requires 3D, no Cockpit/tracking owner and the whole globe inside the existing keyhole circle, using the shared keyhole/projection geometry and vertical camera FOV with a rotation-local bounding-sphere cone for off-axis containment. Canvas-edge clipping alone does not block a rigid rotation or its unchanged Globe View preset. There is no altitude cutoff. An already smaller, fully framed globe rotates directly; repeated nudges, direction and speed changes recheck current framing without demanding a reset merely because ellipsoid altitude varied. A close-up or overlap refuses without moving the camera. When the unchanged Globe View preset fits, voice says “Globe rotation isn’t available from this view. You can say ‘Reset to Globe View and rotate the globe.’” without asking a permission question or automatically resetting. Explicit Reset/Show Globe View commands remain direct; an explicit reset-and-rotate request waits for reset success before requesting rotation. If OpenAI dispatches both tools together, rotation waits for earlier same-response resets and is skipped if any fails or is cancelled. OpenAI rejects later tool calls in the same response after a globe refusal, including calls arriving while globe admission is pending, and preserves response-scoped `tool_choice: none` for the refusal follow-up; Gemini rejects further tool execution, including queued sibling calls, until fresh typed input or admitted speech. Model interruption, advisory captions and microphone toggles do not release that guard. There is no pending Yes/No offer. Outside the refused response, explicit-command interpretation and avoiding repeated resets remain model-guided; a distinct model-issued reset call is not an app-enforced proof of user intent. A failed standalone reset can still be retried by the model, and a reset result does not guarantee the camera has fully settled. Before suggesting a reset, a cloned camera checks the unchanged Globe View destination against the same keyhole/depth rules without moving the live camera. If that preset cannot fit, `globe-reset-unavailable` asks for further zoom and the refusal instructs further zoom instead of a reset; this also covers ultrawide views. Unsupported view geometry or non-WGS84 projection assumptions fail closed without the closer-zoom instruction. Supported camera inputs/navigation intents cancel rotation before their action. Finite radius greater than the ellipsoid's maximum radius proves whole-arc clearance at constant centre-distance; no low-altitude swept solver is needed. The unchanged Globe View reset preset remains 18,000,000 m. Terrain and buildings remain outside the guarantee.
+- **Camera verbs** (`src/cameraVerbs.js`) — one motion slot, driven per clock tick. `move_camera` orbits/pans/tilts/rotates; `fly_route` is a cinematic dolly along an existing route annotation. `rotate_globe` rotates the world-space camera rigidly around Earth's center using its screen-up axis, preserving geocentric range and framing. Left/right describe visible globe motion, while `rotate` turns the camera in place. `tilt` swings the camera about the ground under the crosshair, so the place stays centred and the heading is kept. It tilts in place instead with no ground under the crosshair, from beyond 1,000 km of range, or while an entity is tracked (voice releases the follow camera before moving, so a voice tilt from a tracked view still pivots); pitch stays within -89° to -5°, clamped only in the direction of travel so a top-down (-90°) view can tilt up out of it. Angles and limits are the camera's own pitch; at regional range the pivot's pitch is up to about 8° shallower (the Earth curves away), so the swing solves for the pivot pitch that gives the camera the angle asked for. A pivot swing toward the horizon lowers the camera (height above the pivot is range × sin|pitch|), so the swing stops lowering it at 150 m above the pivot (not above the terrain behind the camera) and the rest of the tilt happens in place. Beyond about 17 km of range the swing never hands over to an in-place tilt (that would lift the crosshair onto the sky); it keeps the camera at least 0.5° above the place's own horizon, which from roughly 500 km stops it short of -5° with the place still centred: a tilt to an angle beyond that stops at the angle reached and says so (`pitchDeg` is the angle reached, with a `note`), a continuous tilt stops there, and a further tilt up is refused as at the limit. A zoom during a pivoting tilt scales the range it holds, as for orbit, but a zoom in stops at the range that keeps that 150 m clearance; a zoom that can move no further (that floor, the 80 m floor, or the cap: 1,000 km for a tilt, where pivoting stops, and 5,000 km for an orbit) is reported as not zoomed. A zoom during a tilt to an angle re-judges the place's horizon limit at the new range: when that moves where the tilt ends, the tilt eases from where it is to the new end (holding the camera's pitch through the range change; a camera the zoom leaves past the new range's limit steps down to it with the zoom, since past it the place would drop behind the Earth), and the zoom's result names that angle (`pitchDeg`) with a `note`. Once the tilt continues in place, a zoom moves the camera like any zoom. A tilt with `pitchDeg` (or with neither angle nor direction, which means -45°) eases to that angle; a positive angle means the same angle below the horizon. `pitchDeg` is absolute, not a step: sent with a `direction` it contradicts, the tilt is refused. An angle the camera already holds answers `unchanged` but still takes navigation, so it stops a running motion and releases the follow camera. A tilt left or right is refused. A voice tilt, orbit, pan or rotate sent while a voice `fly_to_location` is still looking up or flying ("fly to London and tilt the camera" or "fly to Paris and orbit it" arrives as two sibling calls) waits for that flight to land, up to 15 s (moving to a later fly-to in the same reply as soon as it begins, whatever the earlier one reports), so it neither cancels the flight nor gets replaced by it; if the flight is cancelled, finds nothing or times out, the user grabs, touches or scrolls the map during it, or another navigation (a location-panel search, share link or file import, which leave the flight flying) takes the camera during it, the motion is not run and says so. A motion that runs after a fly-to of the same reply has already found nothing (Gemini runs one turn's calls one by one, and passes its turn as the reply) is refused the same way rather than moving the old view; a motion in a later reply runs. `stop` and `rotate_globe` do not wait, and a motion sent before its fly-to is not reordered: it runs at once, and the fly-to's result names the motion it stopped (`stoppedMotion`). Orbit still arms (`armed: 'waiting-for-arrival'`) when it starts during any other camera flight, and captures its target once the tween queue has been quiet for 0.8 s. Omitted globe direction/mode default to right/continuous; explicit values prevail. Other camera motions keep their once default. Admission requires 3D, no Cockpit/tracking owner and the whole globe inside the existing keyhole circle, using the shared keyhole/projection geometry and vertical camera FOV with a rotation-local bounding-sphere cone for off-axis containment.

   - **The route dolly is shaped, not linear** (2026-08-20). A trapezoid speed profile (smoothstep up, cruise, smoothstep down, distance taken as the closed-form integral) eases both ends without changing the pace — duration is still `totalM / ROUTE_M_S[speed]`, with one exception: a 0.5 s minimum keeps a degenerate route from being an instant teleport, so routes under 10 m (slow) / 20 m (normal) / 45 m (fast) fly SLOWER than the speed word, never faster. Turns bank up to **10°** (a 90° street corner settles near 7.5°), measured as a triangular pulse over a 4 s window centred on the camera so the roll leads in and unwinds after. Altitude breathes ±20 m around the 260 m mean and lifts up to 26 m into turns. Pitch is LOCKED at −32°; heading comes from a gaze that leads the path by 6.5 s of travel. `prefers-reduced-motion` zeroes the roll and the altitude shaping and keeps the easing.
   - **Invariants — do not "fix" these.** (1) **Every** release levels the roll: completion unwinds it through the ease-out envelope, and `interruptCameraMotion` zeroes it synchronously (heading/pitch/position preserved). Cesium keeps the last up vector it was handed, so skipping this leaves the user holding a tilted horizon. (2) Heading is interpolated as an ANGLE about the local up, never as a Cartesian lerp — a lerp cannot cross an antipodal pair, so an out-and-back route looked backwards for the entire return leg; `signedTurnRad` branches the exact-180° case deterministically because the cross product's sign there is a floating-point coin toss. (3) A COLD floor cell is missing data, not flat ground: route vertices carry height 0, so trusting them flew a mountain corridor at 260 m above the ELLIPSOID. The corridor warm is fire-and-forget, so the dolly ARMS — camera untouched, no teleport onto the route — for up to 1.2 s waiting for real floor data, falls back to a rendered-mesh probe (`scene.sampleHeight`) when the DEM stays cold — latched to ONE firing per flight, for exactly the cells the cache could not answer, so a route costs at most 8 `sampleHeight` calls however long it arms — and otherwise holds the launch altitude for the whole route. A corridor is only RESOLVED when every cell is accounted for: one warm cell says nothing about the ground under the other seven, and treating it as an answer let the dolly descend to 460 m over a 1,600 m rendered surface. The probe reads the rendered surface at the current LOD (rooftops and primitives included) — a better estimate than nothing, not a guaranteed upper bound. Never descend blind. The floor is SMOOTHED in both directions for the ride while the hard clearance clamp reads the RAW sample, so a cell boundary cannot pop the eye but a cliff is still cleared on the frame it is seen. A pre-departure floor is adopted whole; one arriving mid-flight is eased onto, and the eye's descent rate is capped.
