PEREGRINE · THE PHONE · 6 OCT 2026 · ALL QUESTIONS [DRAFT]

Photos: shot list and screenshots

Twelve photographs for Sarah to stage and shoot, and eight screenshots generated from HTML. Every item carries numbers a math round can use. Each item has a DAY and time placed against the built location log, mail, calendar and bank, and none falls inside burn night (DAY 8 evening to DAY 9 2:06 A.M.). Every figure was recomputed by script.

Mockup review: decisions before the build

1. Recents is ungraded in the build. PhotosView.swift:9 says "Recents is the owner's life, never evidence: nothing in it is graded." The mockup puts the graded ledger in the same grid, looking like the rest. One rule has to give way. My recommendation is to follow the mockup: a graded photo is a dated roll entry with a round attached, and the grid never marks it.

2. The station frame is 4:3 landscape, and screenshots are tall. A 1179 × 2556 screenshot in the mockup's .bigphoto slot shrinks to illegible. Screenshots need their own frame: the full screenshot scrolls inside the station, or a crop to the region the question uses, with the full image a tap away.

3. The ledger's timestamp contradicts the location log. The mockup stamps it DAY 5 · 4:17 P.M., and the built log has her Home from 3:50 P.M. that day. I moved it to DAY 6 · 4:17 P.M., which falls in the open afternoon between Vesey's and Home and puts it on the same visit as the Halloran's tab (5:31). The location station then needs a DAY 6 Halloran's stop.

4. Placeholder names in the grid conflict with built content. Dr. Pell's DAY 9 cleaning → Lakeside Dental, DAY 4 · 3:30. Kessler Pharmacy → Main Street Pharmacy. Lantern St Laundry → the laundromat on Rosewood. Night Owl Coffee → Vesey's. Walt → Halvorsen Property Mgmt. Brightline → no match. The shot list uses the built names.

5. Vesey's hours contradict two visits (existing content). The DAY 4 search result says open 6:30 A.M. to 3 P.M., and the location log has her there DAY 2 at 4:50 P.M. with dinner there DAY 8 at 7:15 P.M. If this is a planted clue, ignore this note. If it isn't, change the hours. The Vesey's receipt sits at DAY 4 · 8:29 A.M. to stay clear of it.

6. Her unit is assumed to be 4B. The building chat rules out 4A and 4C. The lease, the power app and the survey all show 4B.

1 · Photographs to create (12)

These are listed in the order of the item IDs. The timeline at the end orders them by DAY.

Frame: 4:3 landscape (the iPhone default), at least 1200 × 900. The importer strips metadata and the app assigns the DAY and time in code. Do not write or print a time on the prop: the app shows it as a chip over the photo.
Figures: every figure the question uses must be legible at phone width (about 1170 px). Check each shot zoomed to fit on the phone before keeping it.
Light: warm, low and off to one side. Hold the phone the way a quick shot lands, a few degrees off square.
Never in frame: faces or hands with rings or tattoos, real logos or brand packaging, real calendar dates, real addresses or card numbers.
Numbers: avoid 0417, 0418 and anything ending in 14, which collide with the credential and SP-14.
Props: these have to be printed, since real receipts won't carry these figures. Thermal-receipt paper or plain paper trimmed to 80 mm works.

2 · Screenshots, generated (8)

Sources are in tools/phone/screenshots/ (one HTML file each, with shared iOS chrome). render.sh writes 1179 × 2556 PNGs to Image-Assets/Peregrine-Screenshots/. Native apps render in dark mode to match her phone, and the two websites render light. Every brand and domain is invented, and the URLs use .example like the Phone's browser. The status-bar clock matches each Taken time, so a changed time means a re-render. Known weakness: Hearthlist's listing thumbnails are abstract blocks, not photographs.
