docs(wiki): rewrite Home.md to full 14-section visual-first template

- Banner updated to c84dd78 / 2026-05-11
- Section 2: add diffuser (data.otr path, not child-register), upstream
  reactor stateChange, settler downstream; switch to ~~~mermaid fences
- Section 4: accurate code-map — cstr/pfr extend baseEngine, not peer nodes
- Section 6: split measurement into temperature + oxygen(PFR) rows; clarify
  diffuser is NOT a registered child; switch to ~~~mermaid fences
- Section 7: expand sequence with n_iter formula, DO capping, GridProfile alt
- Section 9: correct timeStep unit note (schema h vs HTML label s), add all
  13 init fields, note X_A HTML default footgun, enum-casing note in cell
- Section 14: add row #6 (reactor_type enum lowercasing / toUpperCase guard)
  and row #7 (timeStep unit mismatch — label vs schema vs engine conversion)

AUTOGEN markers (topic-contract, data-model) untouched — regenerated clean.

+
+Hand-maintained for Phase 6; the `## Inputs` table is generated from
+`src/commands/index.js` (see Phase 9 generator). Keep ≤ 80 lines.
+
+## Inputs (msg.topic on Port 0)
+
+| Canonical | Aliases (deprecated) | Payload | Effect |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `data.clock` | `clock` | `msg.timestamp` (ms since epoch) | Calls `source.updateState(timestamp)` — advances the ASM kinetics integrator by `n_iter` time steps that fit between `currentTime` and the supplied timestamp (scaled by `speedUpFactor`). |
+| `data.fluent` | `Fluent` | `{ inlet: number, F: number, C: number[13] }` | Writes the per-inlet flow rate (`F`, m³/d) and concentration vector (`C`) into `engine.Fs[inlet]` / `engine.Cs_in[inlet]`. |
+| `data.otr` | `OTR` | numeric | Sets the externally-supplied oxygen transfer rate (used when `kla` is NaN). |
+| `data.temperature` | `Temperature` | numeric or `{ value: number }` | Sets `engine.temperature` (°C). Non-numeric payloads are warned and ignored. |
+| `data.dispersion` | `Dispersion` | numeric | PFR only — sets the axial dispersion coefficient `D` (m²/d). |
+| `child.register` | `registerChild` | child node id (string) | Looks up the sibling node via `RED.nodes.getNode(id)` and delegates to `source.childRegistrationUtils.registerChild` with `msg.positionVsParent`. |
+
+Aliases log a one-time deprecation warning the first time they fire.
+
+## Outputs (msg.topic on Port 0/1/2)
+
+- **Port 0 (process):** every tick emits the engine's effluent:
+  `{ topic: 'Fluent', payload: { inlet: 0, F, C: number[13] }, timestamp }`.
+  For a PFR an additional `{ topic: 'GridProfile', payload: { grid, n_x, d_x, length, species, timestamp } }`
+  message goes out on the same port before the effluent.
+- **Port 1 (InfluxDB telemetry):** formatted via `outputUtils.formatMsg(..., 'influxdb')`
+  from `getOutput()` — carries `flow_total`, `temperature`, and one field per ASM3
+  species (`S_O`, `S_I`, `S_S`, `S_NH`, `S_N2`, `S_NO`, `S_HCO`, `X_I`, `X_S`, `X_H`,
+  `X_STO`, `X_A`, `X_TS`).
+- **Port 2 (registration):** at startup the node sends one
+  `{ topic: 'child.register', payload: <node.id>, positionVsParent, distance }`
+  to its parent.
+
+## Events emitted by `source.emitter`
+
+- `stateChange` — fires after every `updateState()` that advances the integrator.
+  Payload is the new `currentTime` (ms since epoch). Downstream reactors register
+  via `child.register` and subscribe to this event to pull the upstream
+  effluent on each advance.
+- `output-changed` — base notification fired by `updateState()` so the
+  BaseNodeAdapter pipeline pushes outputs (currently used only as a heartbeat;
+  effluent is emitted directly from the periodic tick).
+
+## Children accepted
+
+- `measurement` — subscribes to `<type>.measured.<position>` on the child's
+  `measurements.emitter`. Recognised reconciliations: `temperature.measured.atEquipment`
+  writes `engine.temperature`; PFR additionally honours
+  `quantity (oxygen).measured.<distance>` to reconcile dissolved-oxygen
+  concentration into the nearest grid cell.
+- `reactor` — registers as the upstream reactor; the downstream `updateState`
+  pulls the upstream effluent into `Fs[0]` / `Cs_in[0]` before integrating.

+
+## 1. What this node is
+
+**reactor** is an S88 Unit that wraps an ASM3 biological-process engine — either a CSTR (fully mixed tank) or a PFR (plug-flow with axial dispersion). It integrates 13 species (S_O, S_NH, X_H, X_TS, …) and emits the effluent vector each tick. Drives a settler downstream and accepts a recirculation pump child.

+S88 colours: Unit `#50a8d9`, Equipment `#86bbdd`, Control Module `#a9daee`. Source of truth: `.claude/rules/node-red-flow-layout.md`.
+
+reactor sits at the Unit level. A diffuser (Equipment) sends aeration rates via `data.otr` — it is NOT registered as a child. Measurement children (Control Module) register and supply temperature or dissolved-oxygen reconciliation. Settler is a downstream Unit that listens to `stateChange` to pull effluent; an upstream reactor drives this reactor the same way.
+
+## 3. Capability matrix
+
+| Capability | Status | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| ASM3 13-species ODE integration | ✅ | CSTR + PFR engines under `kinetics/`. |
+| CSTR (fully mixed) | ✅ | Single concentration vector per tick. |
+| PFR (axial discretization) | ✅ | `resolution_L` grid cells; emits `GridProfile` alongside `Fluent`. |
+| Multi-inlet mixing | ✅ | `n_inlets`; each inlet receives its own `data.fluent` with `inlet` index. |
+| Temperature reconcile from measurement | ✅ | `temperature.measured.atEquipment` writes `engine.temperature`. Code constant: `POSITIONS.AT_EQUIPMENT`. |
+| Oxygen reconcile (PFR) | ✅ | `quantity (oxygen).measured.<distance>` maps to nearest grid cell. |
+| KLa-driven aeration | ✅ | `reactor.kla` > 0 enables internal mass transfer; falls back to `data.otr`. |
+| Speed-up factor (sim time) | ✅ | `reactor.speedUpFactor` accelerates wall-clock → process time. |
+| Dispersion override (PFR) | ✅ | `data.dispersion` updates axial `D`. |
+| Hot-swap engine type | ❌ | `reactor_type` is read once in `configure()`. |

+| `measurement` | `asset.type = temperature`, `positionVsParent = atEquipment` | `engine._connectMeasurement` | Writes `engine.temperature`. CSTR only honours temperature; PFR additionally reconciles `quantity (oxygen).measured.<distance>` (numeric position) → nearest grid cell DO. |
+| `measurement` | `asset.type = quantity (oxygen)`, `positionVsParent = <numeric distance>` | `engine._connectMeasurement` → `pfr._updateMeasurement` | PFR only: maps measurement to nearest grid cell by `round(pos / length × n_x)`. |
+| `reactor` | `positionVsParent = upstream` | `engine._connectReactor` | Subscribes to upstream reactor's `stateChange`; pulls `getEffluent` into `Fs[0]` / `Cs_in[0]` before next integration step. |
+
+`diffuser` is NOT a registered child — it feeds aeration via `data.otr` on Port 0. No child-registration handshake is involved.

+~~~
+
+`stateChange` re-emits on `reactor.emitter` (BaseDomain emitter) — wired in `specificClass.configure()`. Downstream settlers or chained reactors subscribed via `_connectReactor` call their own `updateState` on each `stateChange` event. The tick loop is opt-in (tick-driven via `static tickInterval`) because the reactor integrates process-time steps that have no fixed wall-clock mapping.
+
+## 8. Data model — `getOutput()`
+
+Port-0 process payload is the `Fluent` envelope (+ optional `GridProfile` for PFR). Port-1 telemetry is the scalar snapshot below.

+
+## 10. State chart
+
+Skipped — reactor has no FSM. It runs continuous-state ODE integration; the engine's only stateful event is `stateChange`, fired after every successful integration advance. See section 7 for the integration sequence.

+
+## 12. Debug recipes
+
+| Symptom | First thing to check | Where to look |
+|---|---|---|
+| Nitrification doesn't proceed (S_NH stays high) | `initialState.X_A` must be ≥ ~50 mg/L. Defaulting to `0.001` (a known footgun) means no autotrophs. | `generalFunctions/src/configs/reactor.json` |
+| `Fluent` effluent flow zero | No `data.clock` ticks arriving, or `data.fluent` never set `Fs[0] > 0`. | `commands/handlers.js`, engine `setInfluent` |
+| PFR `GridProfile` not emitted | `reactor_type` set to `CSTR` — only PFR emits grid. | `_buildEngine` switch |
+| Settler downstream not updating | `stateChange` event listener path: settler must subscribe to `reactor.emitter`, NOT `reactor.measurements.emitter`. | settler `_connectReactor` |
+| Temperature reconcile silently ignored | Child measurement's `asset.type` not `temperature` exactly, or `positionVsParent` not `atEquipment`. | `engine._connectMeasurement` |
+| Integrator slow / stalls | `reactor.timeStep` too small for `speedUpFactor`. Internal `n_iter` count blows up. | `engine.updateState` |
+| `wiki:datamodel` script slow / hangs | `mathjs` cold-start ~13 s; instantiation depends on it transitively. See known-limitations row 1. | `kinetics/baseEngine.js` |
+
+## 13. When you would NOT use this node
+
+- Use reactor for **ASM3 biological treatment** modelling (activated sludge, nitrification, denitrification). For aerobic-only or simpler kinetics, the ASM3 species vector is overkill.
+- Don't use reactor for a passive equalisation tank — the kinetics engines assume reactions are happening.
+- Skip reactor when you only need a residence-time delay; a simple buffer node is lighter and doesn't require `mathjs`.
+
+## 14. Known limitations / current issues
+
+| # | Issue | Tracked in |
+|---|---|---|
+| 1 | `mathjs` cold-start adds ~13 s to first `require()` — `wiki:datamodel` auto-gen may time out on the 60 s wrapper. Falls back to the hand-curated `concrete sample` block. Two remedies tracked: tree-shake mathjs to used ops only; cache the instance. | `.claude/refactor/OPEN_QUESTIONS.md` — "mathjs slow load" |
+| 2 | `initialState.X_A` HTML default is `0.001` mg/L (silently disabling nitrification) but the schema default is `200` mg/L. Always check the deployed node's form value before expecting nitrification. | `reactor.html` line 38 vs `generalFunctions/src/configs/reactor.json` |
+| 3 | `getEffluent` shape historically varied (array vs single envelope) — settler's `_connectReactor` tolerates both. Don't break the contract without updating settler. | `nodes/settler/src/specificClass.js → _connectReactor` |
+| 4 | `additional_nodes/recirculation-pump` and `settling-basin` are legacy companions — not yet refactored to BaseDomain. | P6.5 follow-up |
+| 5 | `reaction_modules/` is a legacy plug-in directory not consumed by the current engines. Removal pending. | P6.5 follow-up |
+| 6 | `reactor_type` enum casing: the JSON schema validator lowercases the user-supplied value (`'PFR'` → `'pfr'`). `Reactor._buildEngine` calls `.toUpperCase()` to work around this until Phase 7 decides the platform-wide canonical casing. If the guard is removed prematurely, PFR config silently falls back to CSTR. | `.claude/refactor/OPEN_QUESTIONS.md` — "reactor schema enum lowercases reactor_type" |
+| 7 | `timeStep` unit mismatch: the HTML form label says "Time step [s]" but `reactor.json` declares `unit: "h"`. `baseEngine.js` converts `config.timeStep` by `÷ 86 400` (seconds → days), suggesting the true input unit is seconds. Audited in OPEN_QUESTIONS.md Phase 5/6 cleanup list. | `baseEngine.js` line 40; `reactor.json` `timeStep.rules.unit`; `reactor.html` time-step label |
