 **Aetheria extension (2026-07-13):** The first visual gate passed for the original 21 locations and exposed the intentionally deferred Aetheria row. The same definition table now includes sigil elements `0x10000595..97`, equip masks `0x10000000/0x20000000/0x40000000`, prototypes `0x10000592..94`, and exact blue/yellow/red surfaces `0x06006BEF..F1`. Visibility ports `gmPaperDollUI::UpdateAetheria @ 0x004A3E50`: player `PropertyInt.AetheriaBitfield (322)` bits 1/2/4 independently expose the three slots at login and on live `0x02CD` updates. A missing property hides all three. AP-108 narrowed.

First data-driven *game* panel: `gmToolbarUI` (`LayoutDesc 0x21000016`) — 18 shortcut slots from the persisted `PlayerDescription` SHORTCUT block, real **composited** item icons (opaque type-default underlay via the `EnumIDMap 0x10000004` resolve), **occupancy-gated slot numbers 1–9** (occupied = dark-box peace/war `0x10000042/43`; empty = background `0x1000005e` from cell composite `0x10000341`), **click-to-use** (`ItemHolder::UseObject` → `0x0036`), **peace/war stance** indicator live-wired to `CombatState`, **movable**, and a **chrome frame** (UiNineSlicePanel drawn over content via the new `UiElement.OnDrawAfterChildren` hook). New shared widgets `UiItemSlot` (`UIElement_UIItem` 0x10000032, procedural leaf) + `UiItemList` (`UIElement_ItemList` 0x10000031, factory branch) + `IconComposer` (CPU layered composite). `CreateObject.TryParse` extended to the full ACE-order weenie-header tail to capture `IconId`/`IconOverlay`/`IconUnderlay` → `ItemRepository.EnrichItem` → re-render.

 - **✓ SHIPPED — D.5.2 — Stateful item-icon system.** Shipped 2026-06-17/18 (`419c3ac`..`fb288ad`, branch claude/hopeful-maxwell-214a12; **visually verified on a live Coldeve server**). Faithful retail icon composite (`IconData::RenderIcons` @0x0058d180): (1) `UiEffects` bitfield captured from the `CreateObject` weenie header (was discarded) → `ItemInstance.Effects`; (2) `IconComposer.GetIcon` rewritten as a 2-stage composite — Stage 1 = drag icon (base + custom overlay) + the effect treatment, Stage 2 = type-default underlay + custom underlay + drag. The effect treatment ports the **surface overload** of `SurfaceWindow::ReplaceColor` (`0x004415b0`): the textured effect tile (`EnumIDMap 0x10000005` by `LowestSetBit(effects)+1`, fallback `0x21` solid-black) is copied **per-pixel** into the icon's pure-white pixels — magical items take the tile's GRADIENT hue, mundane items go black; (3) `PublicUpdatePropertyInt (0x02CE)` parser + `WorldSession.ObjectIntPropertyUpdated` event + `GameWindow` subscription → `ItemRepository.UpdateIntProperty` → icon re-composites live. **Appraise (`0x00C9`) carries NO icon data** (ACE proof: `Icon`/`IconOverlay`/`IconUnderlay`/`UiEffects` all lack `[AssessmentProperty]`) — dropped as a no-op. **Two visual-verification fixes landed after the subagent build:** the `effects==0` recolor MUST run (mundane white edges → black, `40c97a5`) and the tint is a per-pixel GRADIENT not a flat color (the surface overload, `fb288ad`) — both confirmed via clean Ghidra + named decomp.

+- **✓ SHIPPED — D.5 paperdoll background correction (2026-07-13, `1be18cc4` + `edc9be30`).** All 24 per-location backgrounds passed live. The three Aetheria locations use exact blue/yellow/red UIItem prototypes and independent player `AetheriaBitfield (322)` login/live visibility; ACE states `0→1→3→7` progressively revealed none→blue→blue+yellow→all without relogging. AP-66 retired and Aetheria removed from AP-108.
 - **✓ SHIPPED — UI Studio** (2026-06-26, branch `claude/hopeful-maxwell-214a12`, ~33693c6→HEAD). Standalone `AcDream.App ui-studio <datdir> [--layout 0xNNNN | --dump <slug>] [--screenshot <png>]` Silk tool that previews any panel through the **production renderer** (`RenderBootstrap.cs` + GameWindow untouched). Sources: 26-window retail dump (`docs/research/2026-06-25-retail-ui-layout-dump.json`) via `--dump`, or live dat import + fixtures via `--layout`. Interactive canvas (click-routing to `UiHost`, Interact/Inspect ImGui toggle), headless `--screenshot`. Architecture: `src/AcDream.App/Studio/` (`StudioWindow`, `PanelFbo`, `FixtureProvider`, `LayoutSource`) + `src/AcDream.App/Rendering/RenderBootstrap.cs`. ISSUES #156 (inventory all-black in studio) and #157 (GameWindow font resolver) filed.
 - **✓ SHIPPED — Importer dat-fidelity** (Fix A/B/C, 2026-06-26, same branch). **Boundary established: look = importer (font/justification/color from dat); state/behavior = runtime controller logic.** Fix A: justification property `0x14`/`0x15` → `UiText` Centered/RightAligned/VerticalJustify. Fix B: FontColor property `0x1B` → `UiText.DefaultColor`; character colors proved RUNTIME (no importer fix). Fix C: FontDid → per-element dat font via a resolver in `DatWidgetFactory` — **STUDIO path only**; GameWindow passes `null` (Issue #157). Fix 4 (UIState-group activation): INVESTIGATED — no importer fix exists; the dat has no Visible encoding; runtime `gm*UI` is correct.
 - **✓ SHIPPED — Wave 3.3 unified primary-click router.** `ItemInteractionController.OfferPrimaryClick` returns `NotActive` / `ConsumedSuccess` / `ConsumedRejected`; inventory, bags, main pack, paperdoll, toolbar, radar, and world clicks all offer target mode before local fallback. Rejected targets cannot drift selection or open/use the clicked object. Issue #197 and AP-107 retired; retained matrix and live ACE-provisioned healing gate user-confirmed. The 3-D doll routes through authored hit mask `0x100001D6` (resolved `UiButton` above viewport `0x100001D5`), and local health prefers authoritative private-vital state.
