+- 2026-04-30: cdb + TTD retail-observer toolchain (`tools/pdb-extract/`,
+  `tools/ttd-record.ps1`, `tools/ttd-query.ps1`) with PDB pairing checker
+  and ring-buffer trace replay. The "retail observer harness" line item.
+- 2026-04 (pre-L.2 rename): `ACDREAM_DUMP_MOVE_TRUTH` paired
+  outbound/server-echo dumper in `GameWindow` covers outbound packet
+  fields + server echo + correction delta with cell-id mismatch.
+- Pre-L.2: scenario-specific dumps `ACDREAM_DUMP_MOTION`,
+  `ACDREAM_DUMP_STEEP_ROOF`, `ACDREAM_DUMP_STEPUP`,
+  `ACDREAM_DUMP_EDGE_SLIDE` for the codepaths hit during prior bug chases.
+- 2026-05-12 (slice 1): general-purpose probes via new
+  `AcDream.Core.Physics.PhysicsDiagnostics` static class.
+  `ACDREAM_PROBE_RESOLVE` emits one `[resolve]` line per
+  `PhysicsEngine.ResolveWithTransition` call (input/output pos+cell,
+  ok-vs-partial, grounded-in, contact-plane status, wall normal if hit,
+  walkable polygon valid, moving entity id).
+  `ACDREAM_PROBE_CELL` emits one `[cell-transit]` line per
+  `PlayerMovementController.CellId` change with old→new + position +
+  reason tag (`resolver`/`teleport`). Both flippable live via the
+  DebugPanel "Diagnostics" section — checkbox toggles take effect on
+  the next resolve, no relaunch required.
+
+Remaining L.2a work: contact-plane probe (general, not just steep-roof),
+ShadowObjectRegistry hit log ("you collided with entity X"), water probe,
+real-DAT fixture-capture pipeline, and folding the older sticky-at-startup
+`ACDREAM_DUMP_*` flags into `PhysicsDiagnostics` for unified runtime
+toggling.
