Eric's read on the first-visitor experience: 190 lines of pitch, manual, gallery, and contributor doc is intimidating when the visitor only needs the first 40. Split three ways: README.md is now the front door — what it is, why it exists (told in first person now, since it IS a personal itch scratched), how the six stages work, requirements, quick start, one hero screenshot, and the development/citizenship/license notes. Sixty percent shorter. docs/tour.md carries the full gallery: all seven pages, the game detail view, and the phone set, captions intact. docs/guide.md is the complete user's guide: credentials and config, the stages and their flags, phone pairing, photo technique, curation stores, RPG handling, upload safety (including the collection-export lag), the no-token-yet path, and the keep-data-out-of-git rationale. Every relative link and README→guide anchor machine-verified to resolve. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_016jXZFSTZQKzAC8fqpWSz9g

# A tour of bggpipe

Seven pages in one local app — Pipeline, Photos, Titles, Review, Queue, Library, and Help. Every screenshot below is the real app on the author's real shelves. (Back to the [README](../README.md) · how to use it all: the [user's guide](guide.md).)
|
|
|
|
**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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Review** — keyboard-first decisions on ambiguous matches, editions, and cross-photo merges (with veto), plus hand-steered re-searches of BGG or RPGGeek when the automatic search can't reach the right database.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Queue** — exactly what upload will do before it does it, and a permanent log of every attempt ever made.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**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.
