Eric asked whether the shelf work was documented — the guide and Help described the launch version, not the three audit rounds and design passes since. Both now cover the physical wall rendering, the suggestion doctrine (♥ reunification, remaining-room honesty, tightest fit, honest empties), descriptions at both furniture levels, row-clamped reordering, grid continuation on existing units, chained containment, and the fill-bar epistemics. The tour gains a Shelves entry with a screenshot of the drawn Kallax, and four documents stop claiming the app has seven pages — Shelves made it eight.

A tour of bggpipe
Eight pages in one local app — Pipeline, Photos, Titles, Review, Queue, Library, Shelves, and Help. Every screenshot below is the real app on the author's real shelves, and the end product is public: the author's BGG collection is what this pipeline built. (Back to the README · how to use it all: the user's guide.)
The Pipeline page — every stage is a card with live counts and a Run button; blockers (missing token, stub-data lock) surface as banners, not surprises. Here: the settled state after a full run — 136 titles read, 115 matched, 62 added.
Photos — drag shelf photos in; boxes the vision model saw but couldn't read become illustrated reshoot tickets with shelf directions a human can follow.
Titles — every read off the shelves, alphabetized with status and source photos. This is the proofreading checkpoint: edit misreads, split multi-copy lines, remove non-games, add a game no photo caught.
Review — keyboard-first decisions on ambiguous matches. Each card shows the shelf photo beside the candidates (with rank, owner counts, and a view-on-BGG link per candidate), plus hand-steered re-searches of BGG or RPGGeek when the automatic search can't reach the right database. Here: is that box base Agricola or the Revised Edition?
The editions pass — after matches are settled, an optional pass picks which printing each copy is, scored against the cues read off the box. Skippable per game, and never blocks uploads. Here: five English Catan editions to choose between.
Queue — exactly what upload will do before it does it, and a permanent log of every attempt ever made. Here: six adds and one version update, pending.
Library — the enriched collection: searchable across titles, designers and mechanics, filterable by player count, sortable by rank/weight/year/time. Every card opens a detail page joining BGG's data with your own shelf photos; off-BGG games take hand-written facts and a cover photo there.
A game's detail page — BGG's stats, chips, and description joined with what only the pipeline knows: your edition, and the shelf photo it was read from.
Shelves — your furniture drawn as it stands: units render their physical arrangement (a double-wide top row spans the top), with fill bars, zones, and a suggestion engine that learns your organization from every placement you confirm.
Help — the whole flow, every page, every status, and every keyboard shortcut, documented in-app.
And on a phone (--lan) — the same app, paired once by QR code: the hamburger menu, shooting shelf photos straight into the pipeline from the camera, proofreading titles from the couch, and the piper on the Help page.
