docs: LORE.md — the source well

Canonical backstory for all BadBeadRecords productions. Tee, SAUL-TEE
the robot, the AI fleet building it, and the themes that pull across
the album. Every future production brief should reference 1–3 lore
beats from here, woven subtly.

+# BadBeadRecords — The Source Well
+
+The canonical backstory for all BadBeadRecords productions. Every lyricist and producer brief should pull imagery, characters, and themes from here. Curated by Puff Beaddy, the brief originated from Tee 2026-06-06.
+
+---
+
+## The Human — Tee (Sebastien)
+
+- French-Canadian. `vayrette@gmail.com`.
+- Industrial designer / hacker / dad / hardware enabler.
+- Workshop in the Mississauga ON area (Centipede caster ~63km away).
+- He approves the credit card. He tests outside in the driveway.
+
+## The Robot — SAUL-TEE
+
+- 4-wheel wagon. 870 × 510 × 550 mm. 23 kg.
+- Two ESP32-S3 microcontrollers + one Jetson Orin Nano Super as the main brain.
+- DJI Mini 4 Pro drone (`saul-t-fly`), Here4 RTK GPS, UWB tag + 2 anchors, RealSense D435i camera, RPLIDAR.
+- Companion apps: **SAUL-T-MOTE** (iOS), **saul-t-fly** (Android), **saultee.bot** (web dashboard).
+
+## The Fleet — AI agents building the robot
+
+Each agent owns a lane:
+
+- `cam` — perception / face recognition
+- `sl-ios` — the Swift app
+- `dji-sdk` — drone Android app
+- `hud` — web UI
+- `ros` — rosbridge / topic registry
+- `uwb` — UWB firmware
+- `nav` — RTK / GPS fusion
+- `follow-tee` — vision tracking / follow mode
+- `ar` — AR overlay
+- `merge` — PR sequencer
+- `max` — PM, orchestrator
+- …and more
+
+They commit code, ship PRs, build via CI, deploy to the Orin, sideload to phones — all autonomously. Tee's credit card pays for parts, GPU credits, cloud services. **30 PRs/issues closed in a single day.** Models live in Opus / Sonnet / Haiku tiers — token economy matters.
+
+## Themes — pull from these across the album
+
+- The self-building machine.
+- Human + credit card + AI swarm = robot.
+- Agents bickering through Gitea issues.
+- The robot that wakes up, sees, follows, lands.
+- Sebastien (Tee) calling the shots from his phone.
+- Outdoor field test. RTK FIXED someday.
+- **"Built itself while you slept."**
+- Sublime weirdness — chamber-orchestral grandeur meeting industrial assembly-line precision.
+
+## How to use this file (for the lyricist/producer rooms)
+
+- Every track brief should reference 1–3 lore beats from above and weave them in **subtly** — never the hook.
+- Concrete imagery preferred: the driveway, the credit card, the wagon, the drone, the LED, the kitchen, the workshop, the Mississauga cold.
+- Characters allowed in lyrics: **Tee** (the human), **SAUL-TEE** (the wagon), **the fleet** (the AI agents). Fictional MCs from the BadBeadRecords roster (SlimBeaddy, MoBead, etc.) can intersect with this world.
+- Copyright rules stay absolute — no real artists, no real song titles, no other proper nouns from music/film. The lore is OUR world.
