rules.py is frozen until the season ends. In code this season is SEASON = 0 and every replay says season: 0; the counter started at zero before the season had a name, and renaming it would change every replay's bytes. "Season one" and "season 0" are the same season.
Season-two rule candidates are tested on the season2-candidates branches and are never merged during season one. See SEASON2_CANDIDATES.md on that branch.
Approved for season two
| branch | merge on | |
|---|---|---|
| candidate A, imperfect identification (dwell 8 ticks, 8% sticky error) | s2-a-imperfect-id, kept rebased on master | 2026-10-26, not before |
Decided 2026-09-29. The S0-2 economy fix is deferred until the seven-night watch on synchronized_ring ends (nights 2026-09-30 to 2026-10-06, out/WATCH.md).
