THIS CUTOVER AWAITS THE USER'S VISUAL SIGN-OFF. It is not complete. Section 7
of the campaign plan names the V10 sign-off as the only required user stop
besides gate failures, and it has not been given. This commit flips the default
and runs the battery so that the sign-off has evidence in front of it.
ROLLBACK, one line: `git revert` of this commit. It restores the GL default,
the pre-V10 escape-hatch polarity and the gate scripts' inherited backend
together; nothing else has to move with it.
An unset, empty or unrecognised ACDREAM_RENDER_BACKEND now yields
RenderBackendKind.Vulkan. Only `gl` or `opengl`, case-insensitive, selects
OpenGL. The polarity of the typo case flipped with the default and on purpose:
before V10 an unrecognised token had to land on GL because Vulkan was dark and a
typo must never silently start a backend that cannot draw; after V10 it has to
land on Vulkan for the same reason read the other way, because GL is the backend
V11 deletes. `opengl` is honoured beside `gl` because an escape hatch exists to
be found.
Three gate scripts follow the flip. run-offline-pixel-gate.ps1 gains -Backend
(default vulkan) and now FORCES all four determinism levers — backend, day
group, world day fraction, sky phase — plus ACDREAM_MSAA_SAMPLES=0, instead of
inheriting any of them. run-repeat-connected-gate.ps1 and
run-connected-world-lifecycle-gate.ps1 CLEAR ACDREAM_RENDER_BACKEND rather than
setting it, so what they exercise is the process default and an ambient override
in a caller's shell cannot make a GL run wear the default's report.
TEST PIN UPDATED, flagged as required: RenderBackend_DefaultsToGl becomes
RenderBackend_DefaultsToVulkan, and RenderBackend_AnythingElseStaysOnGl splits
into RenderBackend_SelectsGlOnlyForTheEscapeHatchTokens and
RenderBackend_AnythingElseStaysOnVulkan. Five cases replace two. No other test
is touched, weakened or deleted.
AD-46's divergence-register row moves from "dormant until the V10 cutover" to
live, in this commit, per the same-commit register rule.
Battery, all on the new default:
complete Release suite 9,222 passed / 5 skipped / 0 failed (9 projects)
+5 against the pre-flip 9,217; the +5 are this
slice's own escape-hatch cases
#250 family, singly 4/4 pass (none failed in the whole-suite run)
repeat connected gate PASS 3/3 on both columns
world-lifecycle route PASS, 0 failures, both sessions graceful at exit 0
validation layer inserted at instance AND device level by the loader,
zero errors and zero warnings, real frame captured
GL escape hatch verified by two offline launches: 4.3.0 Core Profile
Context, bindless present, exit 0
Every connected launch in the battery reached Vulkan with no environment
variable set, which is the flip itself under test rather than an assertion
about it.
THE PIXEL GATE IS NOT MET, AND WAS NOT RELAXED. Vulkan against a GL-era capture
taken at this commit through the escape hatch, MSAA off and both clocks pinned:
1.099e-03 masked / 3.764e-02 whole-frame, against a 0.001 threshold. 97.9% of
the difference is in the treeline band, and the masked residual of 619 px — set
against a same-backend control of 10 px — sits entirely on the silhouettes of
distant alpha-blended scenery. That is AD-46's registered population; section
5.5.19 measured the same quantity at 497 px / 8.8e-04. Below the band the two
backends are photometrically identical: mean luminance differs by 0.01 of 255.
No baseline was regenerated and no mask or tolerance was widened.
Two instrument findings are recorded in section 5.5.23. The offline gate's sky
mask is still load-bearing — this slice tried retiring it on the reasoning that
V7's clock pins had made it obsolete, and the control refuted that: two launches
of the same binary still differ by 1,011 px on GL and 482 px on Vulkan, almost
all of it in the band. The default went back to 280 with the measurement written
into the script's help. And the repeat gate's desktop witness needs an
uncontested primary monitor: a first attempt reported 1/3, and the two failing
grabs turn out to be a web browser and Discord composited over the client rect,
not a blank frame — the client's Vulkan capture rendered in all six runs.
Nothing GL, ImGui or Studio is deleted. That is V11's scope and it is untouched.

The first CI job in this project's history that renders a frame.
The whole row rests on a decision V6g already made and paid for. When
section 5.5.8 cut set 0 from ten dynamic storage descriptors to four, four
was not merely under the RX 9070 XT's eight - it is Vulkan's guaranteed
minimum, so no conformant device can fail the layout. That is what makes a
software-device row possible at all. Every other requirement was then
checked against Mesa's lvp_device.c rather than assumed, and all seventeen
features the gate demands are true on lavapipe - including
samplerAnisotropy, which V7 made load-bearing eight commits ago and which a
software rasterizer would have been entirely within its rights to decline.
Three things had to exist before the job could:
1. The harness could not stop. VulkanBringUpHost presents until its window
closes, which is right at a desk and impossible in CI, where nothing ever
closes a window. ACDREAM_VULKAN_PROBE_FRAMES gives it a budget; unset or
malformed is zero, which keeps the interactive behaviour, so no existing
invocation changes. The budget never cuts the capture short - the loop
stays open until the screenshot has been attempted - because a run whose
entire product is a PNG must not be able to exit green with an empty
artifact directory. The decision is a pure static method, tested without
a window or a driver.
2. tools/compile-shaders.ps1 was Windows-only and nobody had noticed,
because nothing had ever run it anywhere else. It built its paths from
embedded 'src\AcDream.App\...' literals; a backslash is a separator on
Windows and an ordinary filename character everywhere else, so on Linux
that is one long nonexistent file name.
3. The report's jq paths were invisible to the compiler. Renaming a record
property or swapping the enum converter would have left every test green
and turned CI red on someone else's branch days later, with a failure
that reads like a driver problem. VulkanCapabilityReportContractTests
pins the exact strings the job greps and pins its packed-version
arithmetic against VulkanApiVersion's own unpacking.
The job, eleven steps: install lavapipe and Xvfb; record vulkaninfo as
evidence; publish linux-x64; run the Gpu.Vk tests on a second operating
system; probe the gate under a 24-bit Xvfb screen (the default is 8-bit,
which leaves the X11 WSI without a usable visual) and assert an accepting
verdict on a Cpu device at API >= 1.3 with a clean active probe; assert the
captured PNG is a real frame by IHDR dimensions and byte count; re-run with
ACDREAM_VULKAN_FORCE_UNSUPPORTED=timelineSemaphore and assert exit 4 with an
actionable refusal; recompile the shaders and compare. Artifacts upload on
always(), so a red run ships its own diagnosis.
The .spv step is what ties the committed binaries to their sources. The
existing App test hashes GLSL against the manifest, which catches "edited a
shader, forgot to recompile"; nothing caught a stale or hand-edited .spv.
Verified on Windows before shipping: 19/19 artifacts byte-identical to a
fresh compile, zero drift.
No GL-versus-Vulkan pixel compare, for two independent reasons recorded in
section 5.5.20: linux-graphical asserts exit 4, so there is no left-hand
side, and the probe renders synthetic scenes rather than the DAT world CI
cannot have. The two jobs now say something sharper than a pixel diff would
have - on the same software Mesa stack, GL is refused and Vulkan is accepted
and draws. Physical Linux GPU and Wayland rows stay deferred on the Slice L
precedent; no hosted runner offers either.
Gates: Release build green, zero errors. App tests 4,152 / 3 skipped against
a 4,134 / 3 baseline at this branch's base (9b7f4343) - eighteen new, all
from this slice. Workflow validated by a real YAML parse plus an Actions
schema check and bash -n over all nine extracted run blocks; no actionlint
was available locally and none was downloaded. The job itself has not run:
its first execution is the CI run this commit triggers, and the V9 row stays
partial until that is green.

THE ROUTE'S TIME PIN NEVER HELD, AND EVERY V7 NUMBER SO FAR WAS TAKEN THROUGH IT.
connected-backend-differential.route.txt opened by pressing
AcdreamCycleTimeOfDay three times, on the stated theory that the cycle walks
live -> 0.00 -> 0.25 -> 0.50 and lands on noon. The mechanism underneath is
WorldTimeService.SetDebugTime, and SyncFromServer clears it -- deliberately,
because that setter is the /time slash command and the command is meant to be a
look-at-dusk-for-a-moment affordance rather than a mode. There is even a test
pinning that behaviour: WorldTimeDebugTests.SyncFromServer_ClearsDebugOverride.
ACE sends TimeSync every few seconds. The clock was therefore un-pinned again
long before the route reached its first stop, on every run this campaign has
taken, including V6m's smoke pair.
The Dereth clock does not only move the sky. It moves the SUN, so it moves the
directional term of every lit surface in the scene.
MEASURED, rather than argued. A probe route captured each stop TWICE, 45 seconds
apart, in the same run on the same backend:
GL, Holtburg, capture 1 vs capture 2: 205,772 px 22.33%
Vulkan, Holtburg, capture 1 vs capture 2: 218,732 px 23.73%
GL, Facility Hub, capture 1 vs capture 2: 108,795 px 11.81%
Vulkan, Facility Hub, capture 1 vs capture 2: 130,206 px 14.13%
One backend, one stop, nothing moving, and a fifth of the frame changes while
you watch. No cross-backend number means anything against that noise floor, and
the cross-backend numbers taken during that probe run were duly absurd -- 56% at
Holtburg, where the two launches happened to be at different times of Dereth day.
THE FIX IS A PIN THAT OUTRANKS THE SERVER CLOCK AND SURVIVES SYNC.
WorldTimeService.PinnedDayFraction is a nullable day fraction that wins over both
Calendar.DayFraction(NowTicks) and SetDebugTime, and that SyncFromServer does not
touch. ACDREAM_WORLD_TIME -> RuntimeOptions.PinnedWorldDayFraction ->
WorldEnvironmentController, which writes it once: the Runtime environment owner
and its clock are session-scoped, so one write outlives every teleport and every
reveal generation. Values outside [0, 1) are REJECTED rather than clamped -- a
day fraction of 12.5 is a typo, and silently pinning the world at it would be
worse than ignoring it.
Unset is the default and every ordinary run. The calendar DATE still advances,
which is intentional: the date drives day-group selection, and ACDREAM_DAY_GROUP
already pins that. The differential gate forces the pin at 0.5 -- noon, which is
what the three presses were aiming at -- on both launches, and the route's
presses are deleted rather than left in as decoration.
This is instrument determinism on the footing of ACDREAM_DAY_GROUP and V7's
ACDREAM_SKY_PHASE_SECONDS, not a workaround: it is off by default, nothing in the
shipping client reads it, and the alternative was to keep measuring two backends
through a fifth of a frame of sunlight.
WHAT IT MOVED. The same three-stop route, same commit otherwise, before and after:
holtburg_town 9.05% -> 2.86% (83,438 -> 26,330 px)
facility_hub_interior 12.16% -> 0.78% (112,075 -> 7,176 px)
aerlinthe_island 23.09% -> 6.82% (212,824 -> 62,892 px)
The interior stop is the headline. V6m recorded it as a route defect on the
theory that the indoor spring-arm camera settles to different distances in two
runs; that theory is now refuted. The camera was fine. The interior was lit
differently because the sun had moved, and with the sun held still the stop drops
by a factor of 15 to 0.78% -- close enough to the 0.001 threshold that its
remaining population is worth naming rather than guessing at. No route change was
needed and none was made.
WHAT REMAINS, per the difference maps, all of it now attributable by eye:
the animated portal beside the Holtburg stop; distant scenery foliage; wandering
NPCs and a chimney smoke plume, which are animation and emitter phase; the vitals
readouts, whose stamina and mana genuinely regenerate at different rates across
two logins minutes apart; and, at Aerlinthe, a dense low-magnitude speckle in a
scene whose mean luminance is 28/255 -- half of its differing pixels are exactly
delta 3, one step over a tolerance that is absolute rather than relative.
Gates. Release build green. App tests 4,134 passed / 3 skipped (one new: the
day-fraction range check); AcDream.Core.Tests WorldTimeDebugTests 6/6, including
the two new ones that assert the pin survives a sync and outranks the transient
override. GL offline pixel gate against the pre-slice tree: 2.66e-05, 15 pixels
of 563,200, inside the documented 9-31 band -- GL did not move.

Two changes, one measurement. The V6m smoke pair put GL versus Vulkan at
Holtburg at 18.52% of the frame differing at tolerance 2 with MSAA off. The same
stop on the same instrument now measures 9.05%, and the two populations these
address are gone from the difference map rather than merely smaller.
1. THE WORLD ATLASES WERE SAMPLED WITHOUT ANISOTROPY ON VULKAN, AND WITH THE
DEVICE MAXIMUM ON GL.
RhiWorldTextureArray -- the backend-neutral shared object/material atlas, and
the only IWorldTextureArray the Vulkan arm ever constructs -- registered its
clamp and repeat slots with GpuSamplerDescription.WorldClamp/WorldRepeat as
written, which carry MaxAnisotropy 1. The GL arm asks for the driver's own
GL_MAX_TEXTURE_MAX_ANISOTROPY twice over: ManagedGLTextureArray sets
GL_TEXTURE_MAX_ANISOTROPY on the image, and the two sampler objects its resident
bindless handles are built from (OpenGLGraphicsDevice.WrapSampler/ClampSampler)
set it again, which is the one that actually wins.
V6i-2 knew it was asking for 1 and said so in a comment -- "the world arm that
draws through these arrays is the next slice, and it is the one that can gate a
filtering change visually." That slice was V6j, the gate is V7, and this is it.
Retail settles the question rather than the GL arm settling it.
RenderDeviceD3D::SetDefaultD3DStates (0x005a3800) loops all sixteen sampler
stages and issues SetSamplerState(stage, 0xA, this->m_D3DCaps.MaxAnisotropy) at
0x005a4230. 0xA is D3DSAMP_MAXANISOTROPY and the argument is the device's
reported cap, not a setting -- so "as much anisotropy as this device has" is
retail's own rule, the GL arm is faithful to it, and asking for 1 diverged from
retail as well as from the shipping backend. No divergence-register row is owed
in either direction: this retires a Vulkan-only gap and lands on retail's value.
The fix asks for a ceiling rather than reading a limit back, because the pinned
RHI contract (plan section 3.3) carries no anisotropy field and is frozen. It
does not need one: VulkanGpuSampler already clamps MaxAnisotropy to
VkPhysicalDeviceLimits.maxSamplerAnisotropy, Vulkan guarantees that limit is at
least 16 wherever the samplerAnisotropy feature is supported -- which this
backend requires -- and 16 is where every desktop driver caps. The request and
the GL arm's read therefore land on the same number.
What it was worth, from the difference map at the same stop: the roof shingles
of both Holtburg cottages, which had been dense hatching across the whole
surface, and the stone courses of the near building are now black. Measured as
high-frequency energy (mean absolute neighbour difference, GL versus Vulkan) the
right-hand roof went from visibly blurred to a ratio of 0.999 and the wall to
1.023; every other textured region in the frame is between 0.99 and 1.02.
Grazing-angle surfaces are where anisotropy is the whole difference, which is
why a roof was the loudest thing in the frame.
2. THE SKY HAS TWO CLOCKS AND ONLY ONE OF THEM WAS PINNABLE.
ACDREAM_DAY_GROUP and the route's AcdreamCycleTimeOfDay presses pin the Dereth
date, which chooses the day group, the keyframe and the sun angle. The cloud
sheet does not read that clock: SkyRenderer accumulates TexVelocityX/Y against
DateTime.UtcNow minus its own construction time, by design, because retail's
clouds drift with real time regardless of the date. Two launches minutes apart
therefore cannot agree about where the clouds are no matter what the route does,
and the V6m smoke measured the cost -- 89% of its 18.52% sat in the top 240 rows.
ACDREAM_SKY_PHASE_SECONDS (RuntimeOptions.SkyAnimationPhaseSeconds ->
SkyRenderer.AnimationPhaseSecondsOverride) replaces that elapsed-seconds value
with a fixed one. Unset -- the default, and every ordinary run -- keeps the wall
clock, so nothing a user or the offline gate sees changes. The differential gate
forces it on both launches alongside MSAA and the day group; the offline gate
keeps its top-280 mask, because a same-commit GL pair still has the sun to
disagree about.
This is instrument determinism on the same footing as ACDREAM_DAY_GROUP, not a
workaround: it is one input to a UV offset, it is off by default, and no shipping
path reads it. The alternative on the table was -MaskTopPixels, which would have
permanently blinded the campaign's strictest instrument to the entire sky -- one
of the five surfaces the offline gate already cannot see. Rows 0-32 of the
Holtburg pair went from 23,090 differing pixels to 1,211, and what remains up
there is roof and portal rather than cloud.
WHAT THE SAME PAIR STILL SHOWS, unattributed and carried to the next commit: the
distant treeline, the player and the NPCs, and the animated portal. The portal is
phase and expected. The treeline is not filtering -- sharpness now matches within
5% and a shift search finds no sub-pixel offset -- and the two runs entered the
world at different last-logout positions (0xC95B0001 versus 0x09040008), so the
far-tier streaming history differed. That is the next thing to prove or refute.
Gates. Release build green. App tests 4,133 passed / 3 skipped against the
4,132/3 baseline (one new: the sky-phase parse). GL offline pixel gate against
the pre-change tree: 2.31e-05, 13 pixels of 563,200, inside the documented 9-31
band -- GL did not move. One offline Vulkan run with VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_validation
proven inserted by the loader: zero validation errors, zero warnings. Full
three-stop differential recorded at artifacts/v7-diff-c1.

Instance, physical-device selection, logical device, queues, swapchain, and the
three-layer capability gate, behind ACDREAM_RENDER_BACKEND=vulkan. Nothing of
the game renders through it. OpenGL stays the default and the only live backend
until V10, and with the variable unset or set to gl the GL path executes not one
new statement.
The shape of the slice. Plan §4.11 asks the Vulkan gate to mirror the GL one
exactly - passive record, active probes, an Evaluate producing operator-facing
sentences, NotSupportedException into Program.cs's exit-code-4 contract, and an
atomic JSON report. The harder question was where to put the seam, because a
capability gate is precisely the code you cannot exercise on the machine that
already passes it: this box has one discrete GPU, so device ranking, the split-
queue path, an sRGB-only surface, a minimised window and a device missing
descriptorBindingVariableDescriptorCount are all unreachable by running the
client. So every decision the gate makes is a pure function over plain records,
and the Silk interop layer only has to be right about which Vulkan field feeds
which property. VulkanPhysicalDeviceSelection ranks candidates,
VulkanExtensionSelection does the required-versus-optional set arithmetic,
VulkanSwapchainConfigurationFactory chooses format, present mode, image count,
extent, usage, transform and composite alpha, VulkanSwapchainRecreationPolicy
classifies every acquire and present result, and
VulkanCapabilityRequirements.Evaluate turns a captured record into failure
sentences. All of it is unit-tested with no driver, no device and no window.
This commit is the integration of that work onto the post-revert tree. The V5
branch was written on b064668b, before V4c/V4d were reverted, so GameWindow.cs
had to be merged rather than taken: the file here is eb2ba4e5's GameWindow plus
V5's fifteen-line backend branch, and it keeps _terrainModernShader, which the
revert restored and which the V5 branch never had. Every other file is byte-
identical to the branch - git diff e1ef4313 over Rendering/Gpu/Vk,
tests/.../Gpu/Vk and RenderBackendKind.cs is empty, no BOM was introduced, and
CRLF is uniform across all seventeen files.
Gate results, recorded verbatim.
Release build: succeeded, 0 warnings, 0 errors.
App tests, Release: Failed 0, Passed 3981, Skipped 3, Total 3984 - the 3,866
baseline plus V5's 115 new tests, exactly.
Offline pixel gate against eb2ba4e5: PASS world-offline.png, differing fraction
1.06534090909091E-05, which is 6 differing pixels out of the 563,200 compared
after the top 280 sky rows are masked. §5.1's re-measured same-commit control
band is 15-23 pixels at fraction <= 4.1e-05, so this sits below the noise floor
rather than merely inside it - the expected result for a slice that adds no
statement to the GL path.

Lands the codex-worktree D.2b stream plus the extraction the 2026-07-02
UI architecture review mandated before commit:
- ItemInteractionController: single owner of double-click use/equip/
container-open, targeted-use mode (health kits), drag-out drop;
toolbar shortcut drags don't drop the real item. ItemEquipRules for
multi-slot (coat) coverage via equip masks.
- Cursor phase: CursorFeedbackController (semantic priority chain:
drag > resize > window-move > target-mode > text) + RetailCursorCatalog
(enums 0x27/0x28/0x29, hotspot 14,14; ClientUISystem::UpdateCursorState
0x00564630) resolved through the portal EnumIDMap chain by
RetailCursorResolver; RetailCursorManager applies dat cursor art to the
OS cursor. Register row AP-72 covers the OS standard-cursor fallback.
- Character window goes live: CharacterSheetProvider owns sheet assembly,
XP-curve/raise-cost math and the raise flow — extracted out of
GameWindow per Code Structure Rule 1 instead of committing the ~430-line
feature body there. Optimistic XP/credit debits go through eventful
store APIs (new ClientObjectTable.UpdateInt64Property +
LocalPlayerState.DebitIntProperty/DebitInt64Property) instead of raw
property-dictionary writes; register row AP-73 covers the still-missing
raise ledger (#163).
- RetailWindowFrame: the shared nine-slice window mount recipe; the
character window uses it, remaining windows migrate via #164.
- Status-bar buttons toggle inventory/character windows; retail row-major
backpack ordering; WorldSession.SendUseWithTarget + raise/train sends.
GameWindow shrinks 14,214 -> 13,877 lines despite the new features; the
sheet/raise logic is unit-tested in CharacterSheetProviderTests instead
of trapped in the god object. Build green; full suite 3,286 tests pass.

Lifts 13 startup-time environment variables out of GameWindow.cs into a
single typed AcDream.App.RuntimeOptions record read once in Program.cs.
Behavior-preservation only — no live behavior change, no visual change.
Verified end-to-end against ACE on 127.0.0.1:9000: full M1 demo loop
(walk Holtburg, click door, click NPC, portal entry) plus DEVTOOLS
ImGui panels load cleanly.
Why: GameWindow.cs is 10,304 LOC and scattered Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable
calls were one of the structural smells called out in the new
"Code Structure Rules" doc. Typed options is the safest cut to make
first because the substitution is mechanical and parsing semantics
get pinned by unit tests.
What lands:
- CLAUDE.md: removed stale R1→R8 execution-phases line, replaced with
pointers to the milestones doc + strategic roadmap (the actual
source of truth). Tightened the "check ALL FOUR references"
section to describe WB as the production rendering base, not
just a reference. New "Code Structure Rules" section (6 rules)
captures the discipline we're committing to.
- docs/architecture/acdream-architecture.md: removed dangling link
to the deleted memory/project_ui_architecture.md.
- docs/architecture/code-structure.md (NEW, 376 LOC): rationale for
the 6 rules + 6-step extraction sequence
(RuntimeOptions → LiveSessionController → LiveEntityRuntime →
SelectionInteractionController → RenderFrameOrchestrator →
GameEntity aggregation). This PR is Step 1.
- src/AcDream.App/RuntimeOptions.cs (NEW, 100 LOC): typed record
with FromEnvironment(string) factory and Parse(datDir, env)
overload for testability. Covers ACDREAM_LIVE, _TEST_HOST/PORT/
USER/PASS, _DEVTOOLS, _DUMP_MOVE_TRUTH, _NO_AUDIO,
_ENABLE_SKY_PES, _HIDE_PART, _RETAIL_CLOSE_DEGRADES,
_DUMP_SCENERY_Z, _STREAM_RADIUS.
- src/AcDream.App/Program.cs: builds RuntimeOptions once, passes
to GameWindow.
- src/AcDream.App/Rendering/GameWindow.cs: ctor takes RuntimeOptions;
7 startup-cached env-var fields become expression-bodied
properties or direct _options.X reads; TryStartLiveSession,
audio init, legacy stream-radius branch all route through
_options.
- tests/AcDream.App.Tests/ (NEW project, 10 unit tests + csproj):
pins parser semantics — default-off bools, the literal "0"
gate for RETAIL_CLOSE_DEGRADES, the >=0 guard for
STREAM_RADIUS, null-vs-empty for user/pass, exact-"1" check
for diagnostic flags. Registered in AcDream.slnx.
Out of scope (per code-structure.md §4):
- Per-call-site ACDREAM_DUMP_* / _REMOTE_VEL_DIAG diagnostic reads
sprinkled through GameWindow (~40 sites). Rule 5 in CLAUDE.md
commits us to migrating these opportunistically as larger
extractions land, not in a bulk pass.
- AcDream.Core's project-reference to Chorizite.OpenGLSDLBackend.
Only the stateless .Lib namespace is used; tightening the project
reference is documented as future work in code-structure.md §2.
Build: green.
Tests: AcDream.App.Tests 10/10 ✓, Core.Net.Tests 294/294 ✓,
UI.Abstractions.Tests 419/419 ✓,
AcDream.Core.Tests 1073/1081 (8 pre-existing failures verified
against pre-refactor baseline by stash-and-rerun).
Visual verification: full M1 demo loop against ACE +Acdream login
including DEVTOOLS panel host load.
Next: Step 2 — extract LiveSessionController per code-structure.md §4.
