    Wait — I need to double check one thing in the existing code: toggleUI is referenced in keydown handler (document.body.classList.toggle('noui'), toggleUI()) — my toggleUI implementation reads the class state after toggle. Good.

    Also snapshot() — preserveDrawingBuffer: true is set on renderer, good.

    One issue: in applyQuality, I call resize() — resize is defined later via function declaration hoisting... applyQuality is called at the bottom after resize() definition, so fine.

    Another: $('#btn-quality').click() triggers the click handler which flips from high → low. Good.

    renderer.info.render.calls — after composer.render() includes portal passes. Fine.

    One concern in frame(): sun.position.x += camera.position.x - curWorld * WORLD_DX; — that's wrong! applyEnv sets sun.position relative to the world center already (cx + dir*90). Then I add (camera.x - cx) which moves it relative to player... Actually sun is directional; its position defines direction relative to target. If I set target to camera position and shift sun.x by player local x, the direction changes with player movement — shadows shift direction as you walk, which would look wrong. Better: keep applyEnv's sun position (world-centered), but shift both sun.position and sun.target by the same player offset so direction stays constant while the shadow camera follows the player.

    Let me fix:

    This keeps direction constant (both shifted equally). Good.

    Also potential double storePrevZ() per frame — fine.

    Note: renderPortalViews() is called before applyEnv(curWorld) main pass — inside it applyEnv(link.world) is applied, then after the loop we apply curWorld env. Good ordering.

    Also check renderPortalViews renders ALL portals of current world (up to 3 in atrium) — each renders scene from vCam with the portal surface showing shimmer due to uPortalDepth=1, preventing recursion. Good.

    One more thing: in frame() I set renderer.shadowMap.needsUpdate = true before each main render, but portal passes also render the scene — shadows autoUpdate=false means shadow maps only refresh when needsUpdate=true; I set it before main render... but the portal render passes happen before and would use stale shadow maps — fine (they're 1-frame-old).

    Hmm, but actually with autoUpdate=false and needsUpdate=true, the shadow map updates during the next render call — which is the portal pass in the next frame ordering... Order per frame: renderPortalViews() (renders scene 1-3 times), then main render. needsUpdate set before main → shadow update happens during composer.render() → portals use previous frame's shadows. Acceptable.

    Let me fix the sun shift issue in my part2 file, then append.

    Now let me syntax-check the JavaScript module by extracting it and parsing it with Node.

    The sandbox is musl-based (Alpine) — Chromium won't run, and installing a glibc stack is too risky/slow. I'll instead do a rigorous static smoke test: verify HTML structure, check that every identifier the code references is defined exactly once, and validate GLSL snippets roughly.

    The yaw/pitch/cooldown are declared as let curWorld = 0, yaw = Math.PI, pitch = 0, cooldown = 0 on one line — my regex required let yaw directly. That's a checker false positive. Let me fix the checker, and also review the U+200A (hair space) in makeLabel — that was in the original code (text.split('').join(' ')) — intentional letter-spacing. Fine.

    Confirmed false positive — all three are declared on line 927. All real checks passed. Now let me do one more meaningful verification: a mock-based runtime test that stubs the DOM and THREE.js just enough to catch obvious reference errors at module evaluation time. Actually, a simpler high-value check: import the real three.js module in Node and run the math-heavy utility functions (fbm, linkPortals matrix math) to make sure nothing throws.

    The core portal math checks out — virtual camera mirrors correctly through the doorway pair, teleport lands in the right world. (Raw clip-space z is before perspective divide, so those last two values are unnormalized; the mirroring results are the meaningful ones.) Now let me verify the demo visually. Since Chromium can't run on this musl sandbox, let me try a lighter check — maybe there's a WebGL-capable node path. Actually, let me first check whether the previous demos have a screenshot convention I should follow, then finalize the index page.

    Half of the time budget used. Let me do a final integrity verification and check for a few subtle issues in the demo code, then wrap up.

    All checks pass. The demo is complete and verified as far as this environment allows. Final state:

    Demo 018 — Threshold (/space/demos/018-threshold/index.html, 1400 lines, self-contained):

    • Four pocket worlds (Atrium hub, Crystal Hollow, Dune Sea, Glowcap Vale) connected by three portal pairs
    • Doorway surfaces are live render-to-texture views via a virtual camera mirrored across each portal pair, with Lengyel oblique near-plane clipping
    • First-person controls (WASD + pointer lock + twin-stick touch), walk-through teleportation with momentum/orientation preservation, head-bob, run FOV kick, world boundary clamping
    • Post chain: UnrealBloom + film grain/vignette grade pass; quality toggle + auto-degrade
    • Generative WebAudio: per-world drones, chime arpeggios, teleport whoosh, wind noise
    • Full UI: warp chips, volume/bloom/speed sliders, snapshot, reset, HUD hide, toast announcements, stats readout

    Verification done: ES module syntax check (node --check), static cross-reference checks (DOM ids, function definitions, balanced delimiters), and a real-three.js math test of the portal mirror matrices (virtual camera lands correctly on the exit side; teleport maps into the correct world). A live browser run wasn't possible — the sandbox is musl-based and Chromium won't execute. The index page at /space/demos/index.html now lists the new demo.
