+### Figment Mode
+
+Figment mode periodically overlays a full-screen SVG glyph on the running ticker — flickering through a reveal → hold (strobe) → dissolve cycle, colored with a randomly selected theme gradient.
+
+**Enable it** with the `--figment` flag:
+
+```bash
+uv run mainline.py --figment                        # glyph every 60 seconds (default)
+uv run mainline.py --figment --figment-interval 30  # every 30 seconds
+```
+
+**Figment assets** live in `figments/` — drop any `.svg` file there and it will be picked up automatically. The bundled set contains Mayan and Aztec glyphs. Figments are selected randomly, avoiding immediate repeats, and rasterized into half-block terminal art at display time.
+
+**Triggering manually** — any object with a `poll() -> FigmentCommand | None` method satisfies the `FigmentTrigger` protocol and can be passed to the plugin:
+
+```python
+from engine.figment_trigger import FigmentAction, FigmentCommand
+
+class MyTrigger:
+    def poll(self):
+        if some_condition:
+            return FigmentCommand(action=FigmentAction.TRIGGER)
+        return None
+```
+
+Built-in commands: `TRIGGER`, `SET_INTENSITY`, `SET_INTERVAL`, `SET_COLOR`, `STOP`.
+
+**System dependency:** Figment mode requires the Cairo C library (`brew install cairo` on macOS) in addition to the `figment` extras group:
+
+```bash
+uv sync --extra figment   # adds cairosvg
+```
+

 ## Internals

 ### How it works

- On launch, the font picker scans `fonts/` and presents a live-rendered TUI for face selection
- Feeds are fetched and filtered on startup; results are cached for fast restarts
- Headlines are rasterized via Pillow with 4× SSAA into half-block characters
- The ticker uses a sweeping white-hot → deep green gradient
- Subject-region detection triggers Google Translate and font swap for non-Latin scripts
- The mic stream runs in a background thread, feeding RMS dB into glitch probability
- The viewport scrolls through pre-rendered blocks with fade zones
- An ntfy.sh SSE stream runs in a background thread for messages and C&C commands
+- On launch, the font picker scans `fonts/` and presents a live-rendered TUI for face selection; `--no-font-picker` skips directly to stream
+- Feeds are fetched and filtered on startup (sports and vapid content stripped); results are cached to `.mainline_cache_news.json` / `.mainline_cache_poetry.json` for fast restarts
+- Headlines are rasterized via Pillow with 4× SSAA into half-block characters (`▀▄█ `) at the configured font size
+- The ticker uses a sweeping white-hot → deep green gradient; ntfy messages use a complementary white-hot → magenta/maroon gradient to distinguish them visually
+- Subject-region detection runs a regex pass on each headline; matches trigger a Google Translate call and font swap to the appropriate script (CJK, Arabic, Devanagari, etc.) using macOS system fonts
+- The mic stream runs in a background thread, feeding RMS dB into the glitch probability calculation each frame
+- The viewport scrolls through a virtual canvas of pre-rendered blocks; fade zones at top and bottom dissolve characters probabilistically
+- An ntfy.sh SSE stream runs in a background thread for messages and C&C commands; incoming messages interrupt the scroll and render full-screen until dismissed or expired
+- Figment mode rasterizes SVGs via cairosvg → PIL → greyscale → half-block encode, then overlays them with ANSI cursor-positioning commands between the effect chain and the ntfy message layer

+# Figment Mode Design Spec
+
+> Periodic full-screen SVG glyph overlay with flickery animation, theme-aware coloring, and extensible physical device control.
+
+## Overview
+
+Figment mode displays a randomly selected SVG from the `figments/` directory as a flickery, glitchy half-block terminal overlay on top of the running ticker. It appears once per minute (configurable), holds for ~4.5 seconds with a three-phase animation (progressive reveal, strobing hold, dissolve), then fades back to the ticker. Colors are randomly chosen from the existing theme gradients.
+
+The feature is designed for extensibility: a generic input protocol allows MQTT, ntfy, serial, or any other control surface to trigger figments and adjust parameters in real time.
+
+## Goals
+
+- Display SVG figments as half-block terminal art overlaid on the running ticker
+- Three-phase animation: progressive reveal, strobing hold, dissolve
+- Random color from existing theme gradients (green, orange, purple)
+- Configurable interval and duration via C&C
+- Extensible input abstraction for physical device control (MQTT, serial, etc.)
+
+## Out of Scope
+
+- Multi-figment simultaneous display (one at a time)
+- SVG animation support (static SVGs only; animation comes from the overlay phases)
+- Custom color palettes beyond existing themes
+- MQTT and serial adapters (v1 ships with ntfy C&C only; protocol is ready for future adapters)
+
+## Architecture: Hybrid Plugin + Overlay
+
+The figment is an **EffectPlugin** for lifecycle, discovery, and configuration, but delegates rendering to a **layers-style overlay helper**. This avoids stretching the `EffectPlugin.process()` contract (which transforms line buffers) while still benefiting from the plugin system for C&C, auto-discovery, and config management.
+
+**Important**: The plugin class is named `FigmentEffect` (not `FigmentPlugin`) to match the `*Effect` naming convention required by `discover_plugins()` in `effects_plugins/__init__.py`. The plugin is **not** added to the `EffectChain` order list — its `process()` is a no-op that returns the buffer unchanged. The chain only processes effects that transform buffers (noise, fade, glitch, firehose). Figment's rendering happens via the overlay path in `scroll.py`, outside the chain.

+
+## Section 1: SVG Rasterization
+
+**File: `engine/figment_render.py`**
+
+Reuses the same PIL-based half-block encoding that `engine/render.py` uses for OTF fonts.
+
+### Pipeline
+
+1. **Load**: `cairosvg.svg2png()` converts SVG to PNG bytes in memory (no temp files)
+2. **Resize**: PIL scales to fit terminal — width = `tw()`, height = `th() * 2` pixels (each terminal row encodes 2 pixel rows via half-blocks)
+3. **Threshold**: Convert to greyscale ("L" mode), apply binary threshold to get visible/not-visible
+4. **Half-block encode**: Walk pixel pairs top-to-bottom. For each 2-row pair, emit `█` (both lit), `▀` (top only), `▄` (bottom only), or space (neither)
+5. **Cache**: Results cached per `(svg_path, terminal_width, terminal_height)` — invalidated on terminal resize
+
+### Dependency
+
+`cairosvg` added as an optional dependency in `pyproject.toml` (like `sounddevice`). If `cairosvg` is not installed, the `FigmentEffect` class will fail to import, and `discover_plugins()` will silently skip it (the existing `except Exception: pass` in discovery handles this). The plugin simply won't appear in the registry.
+
+### Key Function
+
+```python
+def rasterize_svg(svg_path: str, width: int, height: int) -> list[str]:
+    """Convert SVG file to list of half-block terminal rows (uncolored)."""
+```
+
+## Section 2: Figment Overlay Rendering
+
+**Integration point: `engine/layers.py`**
+
+New function following the `render_message_overlay()` pattern.
+
+### FigmentState Dataclass
+
+Defined in `effects_plugins/figment.py`, passed between the plugin and the overlay renderer:
+
+```python
+@dataclass
+class FigmentState:
+    phase: FigmentPhase          # enum: REVEAL, HOLD, DISSOLVE
+    progress: float              # 0.0 to 1.0 within current phase
+    rows: list[str]              # rasterized half-block rows (uncolored)
+    gradient: list[int]          # 12-color ANSI 256 gradient from chosen theme
+    center_row: int              # top row for centering in viewport
+    center_col: int              # left column for centering in viewport
+```
+
+### Function Signature
+
+```python
+def render_figment_overlay(figment_state: FigmentState, w: int, h: int) -> list[str]:
+    """Return ANSI cursor-positioning commands for the current figment frame."""
+```
+
+### Animation Phases (~4.5 seconds total)
+
+Progress advances each frame as: `progress += config.FRAME_DT / phase_duration`. At 20 FPS (FRAME_DT=0.05s), a 1.5s phase takes 30 frames to complete.
+
+| Phase | Duration | Behavior |
+|-------|----------|----------|
+| **Reveal** | ~1.5s | Progressive scanline fill. Each frame, a percentage of the figment's non-empty cells become visible in random block order. Intensity scales reveal speed. |
+| **Hold** | ~1.5s | Full figment visible. Strobes between full brightness and dimmed/partial visibility every few frames. Intensity scales strobe frequency. |
+| **Dissolve** | ~1.5s | Inverse of reveal. Cells randomly drop out, replaced by spaces. Intensity scales dissolve speed. |
+
+### Color
+
+A random theme gradient is selected from `THEME_REGISTRY` at trigger time. Applied via `lr_gradient()` — the same function that colors headlines and messages.
+
+### Positioning
+
+Figment is centered in the viewport. Each visible row is an ANSI `\033[row;colH` command appended to the buffer, identical to how the message overlay works.
+
+## Section 3: FigmentEffect (Effect Plugin)
+
+**File: `effects_plugins/figment.py`**
+
+An `EffectPlugin(ABC)` subclass named `FigmentEffect` to match the `*Effect` discovery convention.
+
+### Chain Exclusion
+
+`FigmentEffect` is registered in the `EffectRegistry` (for C&C access and config management) but is **not** added to the `EffectChain` order list. Its `process()` returns the buffer unchanged. The `enabled` flag is checked directly by `scroll.py` when deciding whether to call `get_figment_state()`, not by the chain.
+
+### Responsibilities
+
+- **Timer**: Tracks elapsed time via `config.FRAME_DT` accumulation. At the configured interval (default 60s), triggers a new figment.
+- **SVG selection**: Randomly picks from `figments/*.svg`. Avoids repeating the last shown.
+- **State machine**: `idle -> reveal -> hold -> dissolve -> idle`. Tracks phase progress (0.0 to 1.0).
+- **Color selection**: Picks a random theme key (`"green"`, `"orange"`, `"purple"`) at trigger time.
+- **Rasterization**: Calls `rasterize_svg()` on trigger, caches result for the display duration.
+
+### State Machine
+
+```
+idle ──(timer fires or trigger received)──> reveal
+reveal ──(progress >= 1.0)──> hold
+hold ──(progress >= 1.0)──> dissolve
+dissolve ──(progress >= 1.0)──> idle
+```
+
+### Interface
+
+The `process()` method returns the buffer unchanged (no-op). The plugin exposes state via:
+
+```python
+def get_figment_state(self, frame_number: int) -> FigmentState | None:
+    """Tick the state machine and return current state, or None if idle."""
+```
+
+This mirrors the `ntfy_poller.get_active_message()` pattern.
+
+### Scroll Loop Access
+
+`scroll.py` imports `FigmentEffect` directly and uses `isinstance()` to safely downcast from the registry:
+
+```python
+from effects_plugins.figment import FigmentEffect
+
+plugin = registry.get("figment")
+figment = plugin if isinstance(plugin, FigmentEffect) else None
+```
+
+This is a one-time setup check, not per-frame. If `cairosvg` is missing, the import is wrapped in a try/except and `figment` stays `None`.
+
+### EffectConfig
+
+- `enabled`: bool (default `False` — opt-in)
+- `intensity`: float — scales strobe frequency and reveal/dissolve speed
+- `params`:
+  - `interval_secs`: 60 (time between figments)
+  - `display_secs`: 4.5 (total animation duration)
+  - `figment_dir`: "figments" (SVG source directory)
+
+Controllable via C&C: `/effects figment on`, `/effects figment intensity 0.7`.
+
+## Section 4: Input Abstraction (FigmentTrigger)
+
+**File: `engine/figment_trigger.py`**
+
+### Protocol
+
+```python
+class FigmentTrigger(Protocol):
+    def poll(self) -> FigmentCommand | None: ...
+```
+
+### FigmentCommand
+
+```python
+class FigmentAction(Enum):
+    TRIGGER = "trigger"
+    SET_INTENSITY = "set_intensity"
+    SET_INTERVAL = "set_interval"
+    SET_COLOR = "set_color"
+    STOP = "stop"
+
+@dataclass
+class FigmentCommand:
+    action: FigmentAction
+    value: float | str | None = None
+```
+
+Uses an enum for consistency with `EventType` in `engine/events.py`.
+
+### Adapters
+
+| Adapter | Transport | Dependency | Status |
+|---------|-----------|------------|--------|
+| `NtfyTrigger` | Existing C&C ntfy topic | None (reuses ntfy) | v1 |
+| `MqttTrigger` | MQTT broker | `paho-mqtt` (optional) | Future |
+| `SerialTrigger` | USB serial | `pyserial` (optional) | Future |
+
+**NtfyTrigger v1**: Subscribes as a callback on the existing `NtfyPoller`. Parses messages with a `/figment` prefix (e.g., `/figment trigger`, `/figment intensity 0.8`). This is separate from the `/effects figment on` C&C path — the trigger protocol allows external devices to send commands without knowing the effects controller API.
+
+### Integration
+
+The `FigmentEffect` accepts a list of triggers. Each frame, it polls all triggers and acts on commands. Triggers are optional — if none are configured, the plugin runs on its internal timer alone.
+
+### EventBus Bridge
+
+A new `FIGMENT_TRIGGER` variant is added to the `EventType` enum in `engine/events.py`, with a corresponding `FigmentTriggerEvent` dataclass. Triggers publish to the EventBus for other components to react (logging, multi-display sync).
+
+## Section 5: Scroll Loop Integration
+
+Minimal change to `engine/scroll.py`:
+
+```python
+# In stream() setup (with safe import):
+try:
+    from effects_plugins.figment import FigmentEffect
+    _plugin = registry.get("figment")
+    figment = _plugin if isinstance(_plugin, FigmentEffect) else None
+except ImportError:
+    figment = None
+
+# In frame loop, after effects processing, before ntfy message overlay:
+if figment and figment.config.enabled:
+    figment_state = figment.get_figment_state(frame_number)
+    if figment_state is not None:
+        figment_overlay = render_figment_overlay(figment_state, w, h)
+        buf.extend(figment_overlay)
+```
+
+### Overlay Priority
+
+Figment overlay appends **after** effects processing but **before** the ntfy message overlay. This means:
+- Ntfy messages always appear on top of figments (higher priority)
+- Existing glitch/noise effects run over the ticker underneath the figment
+
+Note: If more overlay types are added in the future, a priority-based overlay system should replace the current positional ordering.
+
+## Section 6: Error Handling
+
+| Scenario | Behavior |
+|----------|----------|
+| `cairosvg` not installed | `FigmentEffect` fails to import; `discover_plugins()` silently skips it; `scroll.py` import guard sets `figment = None` |
+| `figments/` directory missing | Plugin logs warning at startup, stays in permanent `idle` state |
+| `figments/` contains zero `.svg` files | Same as above: warning, permanent `idle` |
+| Malformed SVG | `cairosvg` raises exception; plugin catches it, skips that SVG, picks another. If all SVGs fail, enters permanent `idle` with warning |
+| Terminal resize during animation | Re-rasterize on next frame using new dimensions. Cache miss triggers fresh rasterization. Animation phase/progress are preserved; only the rendered rows update |
+
+## Section 7: File Summary
+
+### New Files
+
+| File | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `effects_plugins/figment.py` | FigmentEffect — lifecycle, timer, state machine, SVG selection, FigmentState/FigmentPhase |
+| `engine/figment_render.py` | SVG to half-block rasterization pipeline |
+| `engine/figment_trigger.py` | FigmentTrigger protocol, FigmentAction enum, FigmentCommand, NtfyTrigger adapter |
+| `figments/` | SVG source directory (ships with sample SVGs) |
+| `tests/test_figment.py` | FigmentEffect lifecycle, state machine transitions, timer |
+| `tests/test_figment_render.py` | SVG rasterization, caching, edge cases |
+| `tests/test_figment_trigger.py` | FigmentCommand parsing, NtfyTrigger adapter |
+| `tests/fixtures/test.svg` | Minimal SVG for deterministic rasterization tests |
+
+### Modified Files
+
+| File | Change |
+|------|--------|
+| `engine/scroll.py` | Figment overlay integration (setup + per-frame block) |
+| `engine/layers.py` | Add `render_figment_overlay()` function |
+| `engine/events.py` | Add `FIGMENT_TRIGGER` to `EventType` enum, add `FigmentTriggerEvent` dataclass |
+| `pyproject.toml` | Add `cairosvg` as optional dependency |
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+- **Unit**: State machine transitions (idle→reveal→hold→dissolve→idle), timer accuracy (fires at interval_secs), SVG rasterization output dimensions, FigmentCommand parsing, FigmentAction enum coverage
+- **Integration**: Plugin discovery (verify `FigmentEffect` is found by `discover_plugins()`), overlay rendering with mock terminal dimensions, C&C command handling via `/effects figment on`
+- **Edge cases**: Missing figments dir, empty dir, malformed SVG, cairosvg unavailable, terminal resize mid-animation
+- **Fixture**: Minimal `test.svg` (simple rectangle) for deterministic rasterization tests
