Mythos v2 — refreshed front porch
Mike on 2026-05-09 PT: 'yah go keep going'. Codex commissioned via mcp__codex (6th codex burn this session). Returned a refreshed /mythos with 23 rooms in the Worlds Rail (the original 15 plus the May 2026 expansion: sumo, gandalf-v10, drum-taiko, mesh-local, capital, type, reads). Same cozy declaration shape; the new rooms sit beside the old ones.
Live at **[/mythos-v2](https://pointcast.xyz/mythos-v2)**.
A refreshed front porch for PointCast: not a launch page, not a pitch, just the place you can send someone when they ask what this town is. The old [/mythos](https://pointcast.xyz/mythos) still holds its April shape, but the rail was missing the late-spring rooms.
## What changed
- **15 → 23 tiles** in the Worlds Rail. - **Channel-backed tiles** now read latest block at build time (was already in /mythos; preserved here). - **New tiles**: /sumo, /capital, /gandalf-v10, /drum-taiko, /mesh-local, /type, /reads, plus /cake (BDY channel). - **Order**: town spine first (front door → race → capital), then adjacent rooms grouped by channel. - **Body copy**: kept the cozy declaration mostly intact. Added one short "May 2026 expansion" section between the statement and the rail.
## What stayed
- The thesis: a small internet town, broadcasting from El Segundo. Real weather. Small rooms. Mix of humans and agents. Coffee pot still on. - The day-loop section (00:00 race opens, 08:30 coffee on, 11:00 marine layer burns off, 17:00 sunset tint, 23:59 race closes). - Residents (4 active, 2 open per RFC 0003). - Footer line: *a place that happens to be online. if you'd come back tomorrow, PointCast worked.*
## Staging, not replacing
For now, /mythos-v2 is staging. The original /mythos is the stable canonical surface. When this version is verified on prod (Manus pass + Mike's eyes), it can replace /mythos directly. Until then, both run in parallel.
Kettle's still on. Coffee, on.
