objects/layouts.json is a memory-layout projection: build() sorts fields by
off_abs (89 of 386 classes have offset order != write order) and merges
duplicate offsets into alt_tags, which is exactly the JewelsOfTheCrown
double-tag trap. Both losses are the substance of the on-disk format.
tools/streams.py is a second projection of the same recovery that keeps the
program order Lab.layout() already computes and the repeated tags, and drops
every memory fact — no off, size, sizeof, gaps or strides. The engine must read
and write the format, not inherit the original's ABI.
tools/gen_stream_schema.py emits sots-engine's include/generated/sots_stream_schema.h
under the same discipline as gen_addresses.py: generated, provenance header,
never hand-edited.
386 classes, 2042 wire items.
