The CC3 narrow re-review returned CLOSED (both lenses PASS, merge
recommended) with residual R1: the post-create wire-slot assignment read
the cached wire CharacterList count, which ACE never refreshes after a
create — correct for the first create, off by one for a second create in
the same session (reachable via create Ok -> server-rejected guid enter
-> ReturnToSelection -> create again), the same wire-contract failure
class F2 fixed. Root fix now rather than carried: a
creates-since-CharacterList counter (the equivalent of retail's own
CharacterSet growing via AddIdentity per create), reset on every fresh
wire CharacterList apply and at generation reset, applied only to the
cached-wire branch since the display-roster fallback already contains
prior appends. Regression test drives the full
create->Ok->rejected-enter->create-again flow and pins wire slots
0/1/2/3.
Docs: CC3 ledger row flipped to REVIEW-CLOSED with real shas (re-review
R2); CC7 risk item 8 downgraded to LATENT with measured installed-DAT
data (user-prompted): every heritage's single cost override is Arcane
Lore at NormalCost=0/PrimaryCost=2 vs global 4/6, so ACE's over-deduction
(= NormalCost = 0) cannot fire with end-of-retail data — the earlier
"may be rejected" claim was inferred from code without measuring.
Runtime 1707/0 Release.

Opus dual-lens review of CC3's RuntimeCharacterCreationState passed on
retail fidelity but failed the controller integration: the post-create
log-straight-in indexed the CACHED wire CharacterList, which ACE never
resends after a create (it only appends server-side and replies Ok) —
with zero pre-existing characters this throws, with N it can silently
enter the WRONG character. The same stale-index problem corrupted every
pre-existing character's delete slot on roster re-sort. Fixes all four
blocking findings plus a credit-gate correctness bug (retail warns and
lets the user confirm through unspent credits; it does not force a full
spend) and eight lower-severity findings from the same review round.
F1 (blocking): WorldSession gained a guid-based EnterWorld(uint,string,
TimeSpan?) overload sharing EnterWorldCore with the index-based one;
ILiveSessionOperations gained a default EnterWorldByGuid method.
LiveSessionController factored EnterSelectedCore/the new
EnterCreatedCharacterCore through a shared EnterHighlightedCore so the
post-create enter sends by the exact guid the 0xF643 Ok reply carried,
never by a roster index.
F2 (blocking): RuntimeCharacterSelectionState gained a real
AppendCreatedCharacter primitive that preserves every existing entry's
ActiveIndex (a wire contract — SendDeleteCharacter sends it as the
CharacterSet slot) and assigns the new entry's from the pre-create wire
roster count, instead of round-tripping the post-create roster through
ApplyRoster's name-sort-and-renumber.
F3 (blocking): retail's DoFinish(this, arg2) gate is
"arg2 != 0 && remainingAtrbCredits > 0" — the ordinary click warns and
refuses, but the warning dialog's own confirm re-invokes DoFinish(this,
0), which sends anyway with credits unspent (ACE accepts this).
TryBeginFinish/Finish gained a confirmedUnspentCredits parameter; the
plan doc's "retail FORCES full spend" line is corrected in the same
commit.
F4 (blocking): a stale out-of-range template index surviving a heritage
switch to a heritage with fewer templates now clears to TemplateUnset,
matching ConstrainAllByHeritage's clamp.
F5/F9/F10: three register-row/doc citation corrections (AP-207's real
FitTemplateToCharacter call sites — a fourth one the original filing
also missed; the Slot field's real retail assignment source; AP-209's
classID branch table for Olthoi/OlthoiAcid). F6: ApplyCreationResponse
no longer publishes from inside the owner lock. F7: two new tests pin
BalanceAttributes' persistent donor cursor (successive-overspend
advance, Self-to-Strength wrap). F8: ResetSkillLevels' doc corrected to
retail's real both-costs->=0 gate. F11: the integration test fixture
captures guid-based enter calls and uses two pre-existing characters
whose wire order differs from alphabetical order, so the roster
assertion actually exercises F2 instead of coinciding with it by
accident. F12: filed register row AP-211 for the client-side RosterFull
slot-cap refusal (no retail DoFinish-layer counterpart). F13: narrowed
Finish's bare catch to InvalidOperationException/SocketException and
bound _scope to a local. F15: RandomizeStartAreaLocked leaves the start
area unchanged on an empty list instead of forcing -1, matching retail.
Runtime 1706/0 (was 1701), Core.Net unchanged at 994/0, full solution
Release build green.

Ports retail's CharGenState as the one Runtime-owned character-creation
state machine, mirroring RuntimeCharacterSelectionState's exact pattern
(snapshot/delta/event-stream, borrow-only view, generation-gated
commands, one mutable owner, no App types). Every command ports a named
retail function: SetHeritageGroup, SetGender, SetTemplate/ApplyTemplate
(Custom = template 0, Olthoi force-lock), the six attribute setters plus
GetAbsRemainingCredits/BalanceAttributes (retail's literal round-robin
order and fairness cursor), SetSkillLevel plus ResetSkillLevels' free-skill
baseline (reusing CC1's ChargenSkillCreditMath two-tier cost lookup
verbatim), RandomizeStartArea, and DoFinish's complete gate sequence
(empty name / unspent attribute credits / already-Pending / client-side
roster-vs-slotCount cap).
LiveSessionController gained a sibling IRuntimeCharacterCreationCommands
implementation, a CreateCharacter wire hook, and a response handler that
reuses existing machinery rather than inventing new paths: the Ok
identity is appended to the roster via RuntimeCharacterSelectionState's
own ApplyRoster, and the "log straight in" behavior reuses the private
EnterSelectedCore. ILiveSessionLifecycleHost gained two default-no-op
hooks (ApplyCharacterCreated/ApplyCreationFailed) so AcDream.App needs
zero changes to keep compiling; wiring them to the status stream is a
CC4 follow-up.
Filed four divergence-register rows for the corners deliberately not
ported: the FPU-unrecoverable FitTemplateToCharacter auto-detect (AP-207,
ACE only reads the field for title text), the per-style color-count
approximation (AP-208, CC1's model has no per-style palette data), the
classID DAT-DID placeholder (AP-209, ACE ignores the field), and
ApplyTemplate's atomic-vs-sequential attribute apply (AP-210).
34 new tests: full state-machine coverage (every Finish gate, every
rejection-code mapping, duplicate-NameInUse tolerance, Olthoi lock,
attribute balance/lock interaction, uncostable-skill rejection) plus a
LiveSessionController integration suite proving the wire send is exactly
55 skill slots (decoded from a real WorldSession + GameMessageCapture)
and the full Ok/rejection round trip through WorldSession.ProcessDatagram.

F1 (MUST-FIX): RetailWaitDialogView was the ONE dialog view the 0a7dc7d6
EffectiveCanvasSize sweep missed - the Entering World wait dialog (fires
on ENTER, the char screen primary action) still centered against the raw
window and landed off the visible canvas. Same three-line fix as its three
siblings; the enter-wait test now grows the window over the fixed canvas
and asserts canvas-space centering.
F3/F4: two stale assertions about the DELETED first AD-98 substitution
(the register section-2 header line and the live-DAT oracle test doc) now
describe the completed FixedCanvasSize mechanism - the C4-closeout failure
mode, caught before it cost anything.
F5: RetailDialogData.Confirmation sets ElementAttribute40 itself (retail
MakeConfirmExitDialog writes 0x8E=1, 0xAC=1, 0xC5); the manual set in
GameplayConfirmationController is gone.
F6: MapWindowToCanvas truncates instead of rounding - rounding mapped the
window far edge one past the canvas last valid coordinate, a 1px dead
hit-test band; test updated to truncation semantics + far-edge case.
F7: AD-98 records that the no-letterbox aspect claim has no decomp
citation and is confirmed by the user live gate pass 2026-08-15.
F8: the durable world-name read in StartCore is IsCurrent-gated like every
neighbouring step.
F2 filed as #401 (invert RetailUi to opt-out - product-default decision,
not a gate fix).
App 5100+6 skips, Runtime 1666, green.

Two live-integration gaps the ef96c554 unit tests could not see:
1. World box stayed empty against ACE: ServerName (0xF7E1) arrives in the
SAME connect batch as CharacterList, so ServerNameReceived fires during
the handshake pump BEFORE the controller binding subscribes - the
event-only wiring proved the state and controller but never the live
ordering. StartCore now reads the durable WorldSession.ServerInfo after
connect exactly like the roster (ILiveSessionOperations.GetServerInfo,
default interface method so no fake breaks); the event remains for
post-connect updates. Pinned by a Start-level test.
2. The exit confirmation rendered far right of the screen: all three
retail dialog views centered against the raw window size while the
active screen lays out in the fixed 800x600 canvas - center-of-1920
is canvas-760, which the stretch pushes off-center. Views now center
against UiRoot.EffectiveCanvasSize (canvas while a pre-world screen is
active, window otherwise). Pinned by growing the window over the fixed
canvas in the exit-dialog test and asserting the scrim spans the canvas
with the popup centered at 400.
Runtime 1666, App 5100+6 skips, green.

Finding 1 (Exit button dead): retail's gmCharacterManagementUI Exit
button (element 0x100003A4, offset 7 from the listbox base in
ListenToElementMessage@0x004ed5a0) opens MakeConfirmExitDialog
(0x004ed250), whose exact ID_CharacterManagement_ConfirmExit text
(table 0x23000002) and m_confirmExitDialogContext re-entry guard are
now ported. On confirm (matching RecvNotice_CloseDialog@0x004ed760
case 1's ConfirmationResult check) the client exits through the
EXISTING graceful window-close seam (CharacterSelectionRuntimeBindings
.RequestExit -> d.Window.Close, the same delegate
GameplayInputCommandController's Escape fallback already uses) so
disconnected/exited status events still fire via GameWindow.OnClosing
-> CompleteShutdown. Retail's real post-confirm destination is
QueueUIMode(0x10000009) -> gmEpilogueUI, an epilogue screen this round
does not port — recorded as AD-99. Credits (element 0x100003A3,
QueueUIMode(0x10000005) -> gmCreditsUI) stays visibly ghosted like
Create, same treatment, out of scope this round.
Finding 2 (row names center-aligned, retail is left): the character
row template (LayoutDesc 0x21000004, element 0x100003A5, live-DAT
confirmed HJustify=Left with three stateful Type-3 highlight-art
children and no Type-12 caption child) authors its OWN justify
directly, with no separate text child to lift a label from.
DatWidgetFactory.BuildButton's Left-justify branch required
!ReferenceEquals(labelInfo, info) — true only when a label was LIFTED
from a distinct child — so a button's own direct HJustify=Left was
silently dropped to UiButton's Center default. Widened the branch to
also honor the direct case, preserving the existing lifted-child
LabelOffsetX behavior and leaving genuinely-centered buttons
(CREATE/ENTER/DELETE/RESTORE) untouched.
Finding 3 (World box empty): parsed ACE's GameMessageServerName
(opcode 0xF7E1, ACE.Server/Network/GameMessages/Messages/
GameMessageServerName.cs; retail CM_Login::DispatchUI_WorldInfo
@0x006ad860 -> ClientUISystem::Handle_Login__WorldInfo@0x005641a0 ->
ECM_Login::SendNotice_WorldName@0x00692b10, notice 0x186a2, consumed
by gmCharacterManagementUI::UpdateWorldName@0x004ec120 /
RecvNotice_WorldName@0x004ec360 onto element 0x1000039B) as
src/AcDream.Core.Net/Messages/ServerName.cs, cross-checked against
holtburger's ServerNameData. WorldSession.ServerNameReceived fires
alongside CharacterListReceived (ACE sends both in one
SendConnectResponse batch); RuntimeCharacterSelectionState.
ApplyWorldName is the new J-owner field (ungated by lifecycle, since
either message can arrive first); CharacterManagementUiController
binds it onto the WorldTextElementId UiText. Per the LA1 status
vocabulary, the characterList STATUS event's worldName field is
intentionally NOT added this round (kept bounded to the client-side
fix) — a follow-up if the launcher UI wants it.
Also corrects AD-44, discovered stale while filing AD-99: its opening
claim ("acdream has no retained character-management screen") was
false as of this session — LA7/LA8 shipped the screen in earlier
commits without updating this row.
Tests: exit-confirm open/cancel/confirm/re-entry-guard flow;
DatWidgetFactory own-HJustify-Left/Center regression tests plus the
live-DAT pinned row-justify assertion; ServerName parse round-trip
(byte-exact vs ACE's AceWireWriter fixture, truncation/wrong-opcode
cases); WorldSession dispatch test (roster+world in one wire batch);
RuntimeCharacterSelectionState.ApplyWorldName tests (order-independent
of ApplyRoster, unchanged-value no-op, Reset clears); controller test
binding the World text element to the live snapshot. Extended the
shared RetailDialogFactoryTests.BuildDialogLayout test fixture with a
Confirmation-type branch (Accept/Reject buttons) since this is its
first RetailDialogType.Confirmation consumer.
Suites: full solution Release build green; AcDream.App.Tests 5100/6
skips, AcDream.Core.Net.Tests 965/0, AcDream.Runtime.Tests 1665/0, all
Release, 0 failures; live-DAT probes (ACDREAM_PROBE_LIVE_MOUNT=1)
green.

Agent was stopped for token budget. Landed here: probe flag through
LiveSessionConnectOptions + the StartCore short-circuit, the mode field
with JsonRequired-to-semantic-validation move, host exit-code mapping,
and 34 passing tests including 3 new probe tests (agent last reported
green before the stop). NOT DONE: the idle-policy unit tests (next
step), full-suite verification, and the WSL run.
Build/test state UNVERIFIED at this commit. Next session: finish idle
policy tests, run Runtime+Headless Release suites Windows and WSL, then
dispatch the Opus dual-lens review.

The LA3 Opus review process note was right: the contract both sides
implement lived only in orchestrator prompts, which is exactly the drift
mode the pin exists to prevent (and it produced the paths-key CRITICAL).
The schema, field rules, probe-mode discriminator, and status vocabulary
are now a binding plan section; amendments change this text first,
implementations second. Ledger: LA3 fix round dispatched.

Closes the two mechanism-lens and blast-lens dual reviews of Campaign OP
slice OP1 (86c0a7e0): docs/research/2026-08-10-op1-review-mechanism.md and
docs/research/2026-08-10-op1-review-blast.md.
MUST-FIX M1 (blast): RuntimeCharacterOptionsState gains a HasServerSeed
latch, set by Replace (the PlayerDescription seed) and cleared by
ResetSession. TryFlush/TryFlushIfAutoSaveDue now refuse before the seed
arrives — closing the window where a bot (or, after this commit, the
timer/logout triggers) could flush client-default option words over a
character's real server-side options before any PlayerDescription ever
landed.
MUST-FIX 1 (mechanism): the 480 s auto-save timer and the pre-logoff
flush are now wired into production, closing TS-71 (retired). Both ride
LiveSessionController's own tick/stop transaction via two new hooks
(ConfigureAutoSaveTick/ConfigurePreLogoffFlush), wired once by
GameRuntime's constructor — a Runtime-internal change requiring zero
host edits, exactly as the review identified. The flush body talks to
WorldSession directly rather than through App's LiveSessionCommandRouter,
which is what keeps this off the S2 lock-order hazard (below). Filed
TS-73 for the two OnChanged side-effect cases (weather/day/combat-
target/fog) TrySetOption still doesn't model — pre-anchored to OP4's
Group B consumer binds.
SHOULD-FIX S2 (blast, prerequisite for MUST-FIX 1): TryFlush/
TryFlushIfAutoSaveDue no longer invoke the flush callback while holding
_dirtyGate — the decision is made and cleared under the lock, but the
callback itself runs outside it, closing the lock-inversion hazard the
natural timer wiring would have hit (Runtime tick's _dirtyGate-then-
_gate vs the router's _gate-then-_dirtyGate).
SHOULD-FIX MF-2 (mechanism): TrySetOption now ports the two
PlayerModule-state-mutating cases of CPlayerModule::OnChanged's local
side-effect switch — turning ON IgnoreFellowshipRequests or
FellowshipAutoAcceptRequests clears the other through a real recursive
TrySetOption call, reproducing retail's second 0x0005 (the clear's send
reaches the wire before the primary option's own send, matching the
nested-call order in the decomp). The signature widened from
Action sendAutoSave to Action<uint,bool> so the recursion can send a
different (id, value) than the caller's own; every production call site
now passes WorldSession.SendSetSingleCharacterOption directly.
SHOULD-FIX MF-3 (mechanism): a hand-transcribed 53-row (id, isOptions1,
mask) theory in CharacterOptionTableTests, independently re-derived from
acclient.h's PlayerOption/CharacterOption/CharacterOptions2 enums rather
than copied from CharacterOptionTable.cs — closes the one column with no
id-by-id pin. Also added the pairwise-distinctness check blast NOTE N7
named.
SHOULD-FIX S1 (blast): LiveSessionCommandRouterTests' CH3/CH4 regression
test now drives the REAL TrySetOption binding instead of a hand-rolled
SetOptionBit substitute that had silently drifted from production after
OP1.
SHOULD-FIX S3 (blast): RuntimeCharacterOwnershipSnapshot gains
OptionsAreClean (!Options.IsDirty), included in IsConverged — a module
whose two words happen to cycle back to their default bit pattern while
still dirty is now caught by the combined ownership ledger, not just by
OptionsAreDefaults.
SHOULD-FIX S4 (blast): SaveOptions no longer encodes "did it actually
flush" as PrimaryObjectId 1u/0u (which read as object guid 0x00000001 in
the K2 event stream). Both host adapters now report the identical shape
(Accepted, objectId 0) — the graphical host never could report this
anyway (LiveCommandBus.Publish has no return channel).
SHOULD-FIX S5 (blast): Replace (the server-seed arrival) now also clears
IsDirty/FirstDirtiedAt — a wholesale re-seed supersedes any pending
batched-but-unflushed local intent (retail's own PlayerModule has no
partial-merge path either), documented at the member.
SHOULD-FIX S6 (blast): a cross-check theory asserting CharacterOptionTable's
masks equal PlayerDescriptionParser.CharacterOptions1/2's independently
(the write path vs the read path TurbineChatMembershipGate/
RuntimeSettingsController consume) — guards the exact CH3 failure class.
Also fixed a real allocation regression found while landing MUST-FIX 1:
the naive per-tick flush closure would have allocated on EVERY
LiveSessionController.Tick() call regardless of dirty state, which broke
the K4 headless 30-session resource-envelope gate. GameRuntime.
FlushCharacterOptions now pre-checks Options.IsDirty (itself retail-
faithful — CPlayerModule::UseTime opens with the identical m_bDirty byte
compare) before allocating the flush closure, so the allocation only
happens on the rare tick that might actually flush.
Dispositions on findings not changed this round:
- Mechanism NOTE 6 / not independently re-flagged: a re-entrant MarkDirty
from inside a flush callback can still be erased by the trailing
"_isDirty = false" — pre-existing, unchanged by the S2 lock restructure
(same outcome whether the callback runs inside or outside the lock),
not reachable from any current caller, not a one-liner to close
correctly (needs a per-dirty-period generation token). Left as documented
in the review; worth closing before the Options panel ever flushes from
inside a change handler.
- Mechanism NOTE 9, blast N2/N3/N4/N5/N6/N8: informational or require
touching files this round doesn't otherwise edit (SocialActions.cs,
CharacterOptionsBlobSource.cs, GameRuntimeContractTests.cs) — left per
the "one-liner in a file already being edited" instruction.
Register: TS-71 retired (both remaining SetCharacterOptions flush
triggers now production-wired); TS-73 filed (the two unmodeled OnChanged
presentation-binding cases, pre-anchored to OP4).
Quality bar: Release build green; full solution suite 12,853 passed / 4
skipped / 0 failed (baseline 12,770/4/0 post-OP2 — 83 new tests added,
zero regressions).
