# Proposal

## Why

The tool currently offers only 4 patterns. Adding a broader set (Beacon, Loaf, Boat, Tub, R-pentomino, Acorn) makes it more useful for exploring Life dynamics.

## What Changes

- Add 6 new built-in patterns.
- Extend pattern module and count to 10.
- Add default key bindings 5–0 for the new patterns.

## Capabilities

### New Capabilities

None.

### Modified Capabilities

- `pattern-placement`: additional built-in patterns and their key bindings.

## Impact

- Affected code: `pattern.c/h`, `config.c`, `wlgol.c` (enum/actions if needed).
- No new dependencies.
