What’s going on here?

A browser game couples a FlyWire brain graph, MANC ventral nerve cord graph, and a flybody physics model through a modeled cross-specimen interface. Named-neuron stimulation feeds a hand-written gait; a separate trained walking-policy path bypasses the connectomes.

THE IMPORTANT BIT

Where the wiring ends,
and the model begins.

The README explicitly documents cross-animal name matching, programmed gait, default kinematic assistance, and no quantitative whole-brain validation. Its separate trained walking policy is not connectome-driven.
