Record browser

A reader-facing surface for Supper Club Secrets, built from nothing but its compiled records. It is what the outward layer is for: pinakes compile turns chapters and the codex into records, and anything can read them without knowing about Pinakes.

Set how far you have read. Scenes, posts, register changes and item hand-offs each carry a chapterRef, and nothing past your position is shown, so the page never spoils what you haven’t reached. Characters and places appear once something you have read names them.

How it’s built

The page fetches one file, records.json, and filters it in the browser. docs/scripts/sync-demo.mjs produces that file by compiling the universe through the library API with write: false, so the universe’s own records/ directory is never touched.

Two choices a real surface would make too:

• It never shows a state event’s state. That field is the author’s full annotation, written by someone who knows the whole book, and it routinely says what the character doesn’t know. The browser shows register and registerExpr only; pinakes context withholds state by default for the same reason.
• The reveal gate is chapterRef, not publishDate. A serialized run can release a post before a late reader has earned it. See character.post for how the two gates differ.
