How a vigil works
Name it after what is down, or let the rack name it. It is ready in one click, with no account and nothing to install.
It unfurls in Slack, Teams or Discord with who is praying and how long you have been down. Everyone who opens it kneels at the same altar.
Incense, bowl, bows, offerings and prayers, live. When the servers return, press They’re back: the shrine files the vigil and hands you the card to post.
Rituals
Write what happened and burn it in the censer. The words never leave your browser; the room only learns that a confession was burned. Blameless, with a flame.
An omikuji for engineers: five levels from Great blessing to Great curse, with a line about the deploy, the night on call and plain luck. One per vigil.
Three or more people bowing within four seconds earn the room a peal of bells and bonus karma. The shrine counts it, so nobody can fake it alone.
Needs a teamEvery vigil survived hangs a paper lantern above the altar. Karma grows the shrine itself: a torii gate, a lucky cat on the table, a golden censer.

The live demo plays on larger screens.
This is the public demo shrine in TV mode, the way it looks on the wall of a war room: the vigil timer, who is kneeling, what just happened. Anyone can join it. Only the ready-made prayers are allowed there, so it stays fit for a wall.
