34e3a534be feat(chargen): Campaign CC slice CC5 — Summary page, Finish flow, RandomizeCharacter port
Fills TS-82's Summary placeholder with a faithful port of gmCGSummaryPage
(name field with NameInputFilter + the retail commit-on-focus-lost/submit
dispatch + the >32-char ID_CharGen_NameTooLong reject-and-revert path, the
REAL three-row-template listbox confirmed against the installed EoR dat
before writing any page code, and Summary's own independent gmCG3DView
preview instance wired through a second ChargenPreviewController pair
mirroring the Appearance page's exact composition shape).

Ports CharGenState::RandomizeCharacter and its six sub-primitives into
RuntimeCharacterCreationState — not approximated: the RandInt/RollDice
semantics are independently confirmed from both the decompiled RNG bodies
and the CharGenStateVtbl union struct in acclient.h. Three consumers:
the chargen screen's open-roll (retiring AP-214's honest-blank deviation
and reproducing the Appearance page's gender-flip-on-init quirk), the
Summary page's Random button (behind the retail randomize-warning
confirm), and the Appearance page's Random button (narrowing AP-212 to
just Heritage/Profession/Town's still-approximated rolls and Skills'
still-unported RandomizeSkills).

Wires the Finish button (previously ghosted) with retail's NoName/
CreditWarning dialog pair, adds the F12 amendment's HeritageOrGenderUnset
local refusal to TryBeginFinish (register AP-223) as a defensive backstop
now that the screen-open roll normally makes it unreachable, and wires
the four ID_Character_Err_* rejection dialogs for the 0xF643 response
codes CC3 already parsed but nothing displayed.

Register: TS-82 retired, AP-214 retired, AP-212 narrowed, AP-223/224/225
filed (heritage/gender Finish refusal, Summary's two-bucket skill-list
narrowing, the 32-vs-33 name-length threshold reconciliation).

Runtime 1722/0 (was 1713), App 5240/3 skips (was 5223/3), Headless 166/0
unchanged, full solution Release build green.

34c6fceab0 feat(chargen): Campaign CC slice CC6b-MOUNT — Appearance page + preview mount
The page-mount half CC6b-PRE deferred: CharacterCreationAppearancePage
(gender buttons, Face/Clothes sub-tabs, nine spin controls with retail's
decrement/increment/select-as-current-part OnClickAt zones, nine color
swatches, shade scrollbar, zoom/rotate wiring) plus ChargenPreviewController,
which bridges the ChargenPreviewRenderer/ChargenPreviewZoomController
camera-injection gap CC6a/CC6b-PRE left open and mounts as the third private
creature viewport beside paperdoll/creature-appraisal.

Color-wheel scouting (campaign risk item 4): live-DAT probe found every
color-wheel-family id resolves through existing DatWidgetFactory mappings
(Button/Scrollbar/generic fallback) — no new widget type needed.

The @140355 gender-flip-on-init oddity (risk item 5): resolved via decomp
alone — gmCharGenMainUI's own ctor calls CharGenState::RandomizeCharacter
before any page constructs, so retail's chargen screen is never actually
blank on open; the Appearance page's gender-flip code always fires against
a real, randomly-rolled gender. Filed AP-214 (acdream doesn't port
RandomizeCharacter this round, so it opens honestly blank instead) and
AP-215 (two narrow visual substitutions: swatch .Selected highlight vs
retail's separate overlay, ordinal labels vs retail's icon-only spins).

AD-101 retired: the Heritage page's auto-gender-select interim default is
deleted now that the Appearance page's real gender buttons exist. TS-82
narrowed to Summary-only.

Scope addendum: ChargenPreviewRotationController's parameterless-constructor
default changes from 0f to a new RetailDefaultHeadingDegrees=180f constant
(retail's InitializePage override, not the ctor's raw 0) — every real
gmCG3DView owner converges on 180 before its first frame, so a controller
defaulting to 0 was a trap for future consumers.

Runtime 1713/0, Core 4786/1 skip, Content 147/0, App 5220/3 skips (Release,
ACDREAM_PROBE_LIVE_MOUNT=1) — zero failures across two clean full-solution
runs; the one Core.Net.Tests NakEmissionTests flake observed on a third run
is the same pre-existing, previously-documented timing flake (zero files
under src/AcDream.Core.Net/ touched, passes 100% in isolation).

db9ad53c1c docs: Campaign LA — pinned launch-contract schema COMMITTED into plan LA1
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.

cb6502c8a5 feat(platform): Campaign LA LA0 — extract ApplicationPathSet to AcDream.Platform
The launcher (LA3/LA4) needs the XDG/Windows path contract
(ApplicationPathSet/IApplicationPathEnvironment) without pulling in any
gameplay assembly. Move it out of AcDream.Runtime into a new BCL-only
AcDream.Platform project so the launcher-side Launcher.Core project can
reference it directly per the campaign plan (docs/plans/2026-08-14-launcher-campaign.md,
LA0). Namespace renamed AcDream.Runtime.Platform -> AcDream.Platform;
code is otherwise byte-identical (no logic changes).

AcDream.Runtime now carries a ProjectReference to AcDream.Platform and
re-exports it transitively, so App and Headless keep resolving the type
without a direct reference and K0's Headless single-ProjectReference
guard (HeadlessAssemblyReferencesOnlyTheRuntimeProject) stands unchanged.
The sibling Runtime dependency-boundary guard
(RuntimeProjectDeclaresOnlyApprovedProjectDependencies) does assert
Runtime's own project-reference set, so it needed a deliberate,
documented addition of AcDream.Platform to its expected list.

Moved tests/AcDream.Runtime.Tests/Platform/ApplicationPathSetTests.cs to
a new tests/AcDream.Platform.Tests/ project (namespace
AcDream.Platform.Tests) referencing only AcDream.Platform. Registered
both new projects in AcDream.slnx.

13d388e5a9 fix #391: curated modern-only resolution list from the monitor's modes
User-directed (2026-08-13): "we should only support modern resolutions.
Not any old format." New DisplayModeCatalog enumerates the window's
monitor (Silk IMonitor.GetAllVideoModes) once at GameWindow load and
curates via a pure, tested rule: modern widescreen families only
(16:9/16:10/21:9/32:9 within 2.5%), at least 1280 wide, must fit the
desktop (an impossible windowed pick is not offered - the measured
3840x2160-on-2560x1440 silent clamp class), desktop mode always
included, refresh-rate duplicates collapsed, ascending order.

The Config Resolution row consumes the catalog through two new optional
Bind parameters; its Defaults value becomes the desktop's own mode.
Fixture/headless callers keep the static preset ladder, which now drops
800x600 and is pinned by test to pass the same curation rule (the OP6 S4
"default must be re-selectable" invariant holds on both paths).

Deliberate retail deviation, register row IA-22: retail listed the
adapter's complete enumeration including 4:3 legacy modes and authored
800x600 as the Config default (gmConfigUI::InitOptions
SetDefaultValue(0x03200258); gmClient::Init @0x004047af). The catalog is
also the designated fullscreen mode-switch validation source for
#376/#388 - an offered mode is supported by construction.

Tests: DisplayModeCatalogTests (8 - filter/clamp/dedupe/sort/ultrawide/
desktop-inclusion/fallback-consistency); ConfigOptionsPageControllerTests
row-12 default updated. App suite 4,961/3 skips; UI.Abstractions 916.

a57287f8ad fix: move the #387 resize evidence line into the typed owner
GameWindowSlice8BoundaryTests.FramebufferResize_IsOneTypedOwnerHandoff
correctly rejected the log line added to GameWindow.OnFramebufferResize
— the window callback is contractually a one-line handoff. The line now
lives in FramebufferResizeController.Resize after its zero-size gate,
which is also the better home (one owner, all callers covered). Full
Debug App suite 4,941/3 skips.

11e26c909d diag #387: permanent evidence lines on the resize chain (event, swapchain recreate, resolution apply)
Three rare-event log lines so any future resize report is diagnosable
from the launch log alone: 'window: framebuffer resize event WxH',
'vulkan: swapchain recreated WxH ok=', and 'display: resolution pick
WxH (window was WxH)'. An instrumented live run on the Windows AMD box
shows the full chain firing for both the programmatic resolution apply
and external window resizes, and screen captures at 784x561 vs 1584x861
confirm fixed-pixel UI with a true pixel-count re-render.

07f2b3f72e fix(settings): OP9 review residuals — restore SaveAudio live-apply pin, delete dead residues
Closes the OP9 combined review's findings (docs/research/2026-08-11-op9-review.md,
APPROVE-WITH-FIXES):

- MUST-FIX 1: SaveAudio -> ApplyAudio (OP6's Config-tab live-apply) lost
  its ONLY assertion when the retired SettingsVM save-order test was
  deleted. Restored directly on the now-public seam:
  SaveAudioPersistsThenPushesLiveApplyAudioWithTheSavedSnapshot pins
  persist-then-push order + the pushed snapshot;
  SaveAudioSkipsTheLivePushWhenPersistenceFails pins the failure ordering
  (a failed persist pushes nothing and commits nothing). Also closes
  SF-5: the OP6 effective-volume comment's 'target-audio assertion above'
  reference is real again and now names the restored test.
- SF-3: dead residues deleted — RuntimeSettingsController's private
  SaveCharacter (zero callers post-371197a3), ISettingsStorage.SaveCharacter
  + its JsonRuntimeSettingsStorage/FakeStorage implementations (the deleted
  private method was the only caller), and IngressShutdownRoots.Settings
  (zero readers since the view-model shutdown stage died). SettingsStore's
  PUBLIC SaveCharacter stays: it is the tested storage-API seam, and
  per-toon entries in existing settings.json files still load through the
  live LoadCharacter path.
- SF-2: code-structure.md's presentation-seam list no longer routes the
  settings preview through 'optional SettingsVM'.
- NIT 6: AP-196's retirement note now attributes LockUI (/lockui +
  PlayerDescription SetUiLocked convergence) and UseMouseTurning
  (Gameplay-tab macro + Config-tab row) to their real channels instead of
  folding all 13 members into the Character tab.

Full Release suite: 13,077 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (13,075 + the two
restored tests). One unnamed App-assembly failure appeared on the first
post-fix full run and did not reproduce on the isolated assembly rerun nor
a second full run — consistent with the known #250-class parallel-load
flake, recorded here for honesty rather than silently rerun.

b4edee970f feat(ui): Campaign OP slice OP8 — Configure Keyboard
Ports retail's Configure Keyboard screen (gmKeyboardUI, LayoutDesc
0x21000009) — its own separate full-screen window, not a fifth Options-
panel tab. Retires OP3's INERT contract for the Gameplay tab's Configure
Keyboard button (0x10000204).

DAT reader (src/AcDream.Core/Input/RetailActionMap.cs): reads the
ActionMap singleton (DID 0x26000000, empirically the only one — not
0x27000000 as GetDBOType's Turbine-internal tag would suggest) and both
MasterInputMap defaults (0x14000000 "gmDefaultMap"/0x14000002
"DefaultMap"), union-merged per (InputMapId, ActionId) — proven order-
independent since the two maps' one shared context (0x5) has disjoint
action-id sets. Empirically resolved three lane-D unknowns against the
live DAT: the six ActionClass values (1=Movement, 2=Camera, 3=UI,
4=Combat, 5=Emote, 7=CharacterSettings — 6 is genuinely absent), that
the six unnamed InputMaps are 100% non-bindable (render nothing, not an
unlabeled group), and that the enum-to-DID pairing for the two master
maps is inconsequential to the merge result.

Identity table (src/AcDream.UI.Abstractions/Input/RetailActionIdentityTable.cs):
maps DAT (InputMapId, ActionId) pairs to acdream's InputAction where a
live consumer exists (~140 of 306 user-bindable rows — Movement/Camera/
Combat map almost completely; UI/Quickslot/Chat partially; only 5 of 87
Emotes and none of 48 CharacterSettings hotkeys, since acdream has no
general emote player or hotkey-to-option-toggle dispatcher yet). Every
entry cross-verified by label match AND a DAT-default-vs-
KeyBindings.RetailDefaults() byte comparison (RetailActionIdentityRoundTripTests),
which caught a real off-by-one in the Quickslot 13-18 block before it
shipped and found three genuine pre-existing RetailDefaults() gaps
(walk-mode's Shift-echoed chord, ten CameraAlternateControls arrow-key
alternates, and the Quickslot Ctrl+N use-vs-select ambiguity) — none
introduced by this slice, all documented rather than silently patched.

KeyboardConfigController: six ActionClass list boxes built from the
DAT, merged with live KeyBindings for mapped rows (rebind applies
immediately through the same InputDispatcher every other input path
uses) and a new sibling RetailUnmappedKeyBindings store for rows with
no InputAction yet. Left-click a key button opens real InputDispatcher
modal capture; right-click erases that slot. N-way conflict detection
scans every other row plus the live KeyBindings table for acdream-only
actions (Ctrl+M mute, debug F-keys) as the non-user-bindable refusal
analogue, using retail's own byte-verified "Could not overwrite "
string (table 0x23000004). OK/Cancel/Defaults/Revert reuse the
OptionPage/IOptionRow verb model via a new ActionKeyMapOptionRow.
Persistence is keybinds.json only (D4 — no .keymap file interchange).

Five register rows: AP-202 (.keymap interchange narrowing), AP-203
(store-only rows with no live consumer), AP-204 (silent auto-reassign
instead of retail's confirm dialog; OK/Cancel ported as left-click not
right-click-release).

Small supporting additions: UiButton.OnRightClick (additive, no
existing behavior changed), InputDispatcher.Bindings getter (the
screen's single live-truth read seam), RetailScanCodeMap (DIK scan
code <-> Silk.NET Key, keyboard + the one mouse-device row).

19 new tests (6 ActionMap reader conformance incl. live-DAT row-count/
label pins, 1 DAT-vs-RetailDefaults round-trip, 12 controller
behavior tests against the committed keyboard_config_21000009.json
fixture) — full solution suite 13,147 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed
(baseline 13,128/4/0, zero regressions).

bc43fb1d1d fix(ui,runtime): OP4 review fixes — live re-seed, enable-gating, Combat panel re-point, universal timestamps
Both OP4 reviews converged on one headline bug (Character-tab rows never
re-read live server truth after their pre-login constructor-word seed) plus
overlapping MUST-FIXes. All ten converged/consolidated findings land here:

MUST-FIX:
- BoolOptionRow.SaveCurrentValue now re-reads its live binding (retail's
  GetValue()-into-SaveCurrentValue) on every OnShown — panel open, tab
  switch in, initial activation — instead of trusting the pre-login
  constructor word it was built with. Reset/tab-switch can now only
  restore values that were actually live at the last show. LockUI's
  host.Root.UiLocked one-shot mount seed now also converges on every
  PlayerDescription via the existing OnCharacterOptionsChanged hook.
- Apply/Reset are wired to OptionPage.OnOptionChanged in production
  (Ghosted when nothing changed, Normal when dirty, run once at bind so
  both start disabled per retail's PostInit); Defaults stays ungated.
- The Combat panel's three LEDs (Repeat Attacks/Auto Target/Keep in View)
  now read/write the same RuntimeCharacterOptionsState seam the Character
  tab uses instead of a disconnected client-local GameplaySettings copy —
  closes the "two writable copies" divergence. The three now-orphaned
  GameplaySettings fields and RuntimeSettingsController's mirror
  properties/SetCombatGameplay are deleted outright; the headless host's
  hardcoded AutoRepeatAttack/AutoTarget now read the live option bit.
- RuntimeSettingsController.SetUiLocked's convergence guard now compares
  against the last value actually applied to the runtime target instead
  of the persisted GameplaySettings.LockUI snapshot, which could already
  match a server-derived request without ever having been pushed.

SHOULD-FIX:
- DisplayTimeStamps now prefixes every chat producer (ChatLog.Append is
  the one seam all of them funnel through), not just AddText's own
  callers — heard speech, emotes, Turbine channels, and combat text were
  previously missed. The prefix format escapes its colons and forces
  InvariantCulture instead of the culture-dependent TimeSeparator
  placeholder.
- sky.frag now honors uFogParams.w (fog mode) like the mesh/terrain
  shaders, so Disable Distance Fog stops the sky dome's horizon band from
  blending toward fog color too.
- Corrected the "byte-verified" overclaim on the timestamp format string
  doc comment (BN-sourced, wire doc U6) and the AP-194 anchor-column
  class-name typo; the RunAsDefaultMovement doc comments now cite retail's
  actual acclient.h enumerator name.
- Added: DispatcherMovementInputSource's option x modifier truth table
  (incl. || AutoRunActive with the option off), the per-page Apply/Reset
  enable-gate tests, a real checkbox.OnClick/ToggleBehavior-driven click
  test, and hash-pins for the six header string keys.
- Gate script step 8 corrected for the logout-flush false-failure
  (closing the panel before relogging is load-bearing); a new step
  documents the enable-gate sequence and the Combat-panel/Character-tab
  cross-check.

Register: AP-196 (the Group-C default-source change + GameplaySettings
retirement) and AP-197 (the ignored per-character timestamp format
override) filed in this commit.

Full Release suite: 13,044 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (was 13,008/4/0;
net +36 tests from new coverage and legitimate assertion updates from the
GameplaySettings retirement).

22b86b9ff4 feat(ui): Campaign OP slice OP4 — the Character tab
Binds LayoutDesc 0x21000028 (gmCharacterSettingsUI) through OP2's
template-list mechanism and OP3's OptionPage model: 6 authored group
headers + 50 toggle rows (49 from the 2013 build + D3's "Listen to PK
death messages", AP-193) in research doc §2's authored order, each row
resolved by PlayerOption id through CharacterOptionTable, seeded from
live RuntimeCharacterOptionsState, defaulted from CharacterOptionTable.
ClientDefault (byte-verified against UIOption_Checkbox::SetPlayerOption
@0x00486e80's own GetDefaultOptionValue call — AP-194 updated to confirm
the directive was followed), labels/tooltips resolved by name from
string table 0x23000003 (never hard-coded English), and registered with
OptionsPanelController.CharacterPage. Apply/Reset/Defaults
(0x100001FC/FD/FE) are now wired per-page via a scoped subtree search
(UiElement.FindDescendant, promoted from UiTabPanel) since Character/
Chat/Config each author their own physical instance under the SAME
element ids.

Consumers: Group A (29 ids) wire+store only via the existing
SetSingleCharacterOptionRuntimeCmd/TrySetOption seam. Group B: Display
Timestamps prefixes new transcript lines (RuntimeCommunicationState.
DisplayTimestampsSource); Disable Distance Fog forces FogMode.Off
(WeatherSystem.DisableDistanceFogSource, retiring half of TS-73); Run as
Default Movement inverts the walk-mode modifier's default
(RuntimeLocalPlayerMovementState.RunAsDefaultMovementSource). Group C
re-points AutoTarget/AutoRepeatAttack/ViewCombatTarget
(CharacterOptionCombatSettingsSource), VividTargetingIndicator/
CoordinatesOnRadar/LockUI/AcceptLootPermits from the client-local
GameplaySettings record to the canonical server bit — closing two
previously-unfiled divergences where AutoRepeatAttack and
AcceptCorpseLootingPermissions never reached the wire despite being
retail auto-save ids. TS-73 narrowed to its two still-open cases;
TS-75..TS-80 file the genuine gaps (no day/night force, no weather-
particle/profanity-filter/salvage/housing/pickup-preference subsystem,
fellowship-create's unaudited client-sourced field) rather than
inventing stand-ins.

Conformance: CharacterOptionsPageControllerTests pins all 50 rows
against CharacterOptionTable in both directions (an invented or dropped
row fails the build), the authored group/order row-by-row, and the
build/seed/Apply/Reset/Defaults/wire-publish behavior end-to-end against
the committed fixture. 52 new tests; full solution suite 13,008 passed /
4 skipped / 0 failed (was 12,956/4/0).

9d3df5f627 fix(app): #348 — cursor switches ride a process-lifetime native cache; the per-flip Win32 handle leak is closed
Silk's per-mouse ICursor recreates the native Win32 cursor on every
Image assignment; a per-frame cursor alternation (the pick cursor
flickering between kinds while hovering an ANIMATED NPC — exactly the
stand-at-a-vendor posture) allocated a fresh USER handle each flip
until CreateCursor died with "Not enough memory" and took the render
loop with it (vendor-gate.log, exit 82 — surfaced as one clean stack
by #343's fix, as designed).

GlfwCursorCache restores retail's own shape: each distinct
MediaDescCursor is created ONCE for the process lifetime
(glfwCreateCursor, rejected media cached as permanent misses) and
switching is an O(1) zero-allocation glfwSetCursor. The AP-72
missing-art standard-cursor fallback rides the same cache
(Arrow/Hand/Crosshair/IBeam; anything else keeps the Silk path).
Graphical hosts attach after the native window exists; tests and
windowless hosts keep the Silk path untouched. RetailCursorManager's
dedup and PlanApplication logic are unchanged.

6c6664a685 fix(app): #343 — a wounded render loop defers the native release instead of throwing over the real failure
Some checks are pending
Headless portability / portable-headless (ubuntu-latest) (push) Waiting to run
Headless portability / portable-headless (windows-latest) (push) Waiting to run
Headless portability / linux-graphical (push) Waiting to run
Headless portability / linux-vulkan (push) Waiting to run
Root cause pinned by IL-decompiling Silk.NET.Windowing.Common:
ViewImplementationBase._inRenderLoop is set at DoRender/DoUpdate entry
and cleared ONLY on normal return, so a throwing frame callback leaves
it armed forever and any later Dispose -> Reset throws "You cannot call
Reset inside of the render loop", exit 82, replacing the original
wounding exception in the report.

The fix mirrors Silk's own bracket exactly: GameWindow._renderLoopArmed
set at OnUpdate/OnRender entry, cleared only on their normal return —
deliberately NOT in a finally, so it tracks the wound the same way
Silk's private field does. ReleaseNativeWindow checks it before
disposing: armed -> best-effort Close() (swallowed so it can never
become the reported failure), no Dispose, and a new terminal status
CompleteWithDeferredNativeRelease with Error kept null — the original
exception stays the primary report. Healthy paths (OnClosing's
in-loop completion, Run()'s tail release) are byte-unchanged, and the
new PublishNativeWindow parameters default to null so every existing
caller and test behaves identically.

Sabotage: disabling the armed-check flipped the deferral test to
Expected CompleteWithDeferredNativeRelease / Actual Complete —
the guard is what the test exercises. Clean-room suite 11,262 / 6 / 1,
the 1 being #340's documented load flake (passed standalone; second
recorded firing noted in its entry).

Queue: #344 done, #343 done; next #345's instrumented mechanism
session, then #341's boundary hunt.

55b07f6a62 refactor(physics): hoist the live-entity collision builder to Runtime (#330 groundwork)
Some checks are pending
Headless portability / portable-headless (ubuntu-latest) (push) Waiting to run
Headless portability / portable-headless (windows-latest) (push) Waiting to run
Headless portability / linux-graphical (push) Waiting to run
Headless portability / linux-vulkan (push) Waiting to run
LiveEntityCollisionBuilder and LiveEntityDefaultPoseResolver move from
AcDream.App.Physics to AcDream.Runtime.Physics with no behaviour change
— diff-verified byte-identical shape math by both review lenses. The
Build signature's App-record parameter is replaced by presentation-free
primitives with identical guard semantics, INCLUDING the
FinalPhysicsState read the contract had missed and the implementer
surfaced rather than dropped. Visibility stays internal: Runtime's
existing InternalsVisibleTo grants already cover every consumer, so the
implementation's public widening is reverted per the architecture
review's finding 11.

The registration WIRING is deliberately WITHHELD. Both Opus lenses
failed it, converging: a shadow registered at spawn freezes there
(RuntimeRemotePhysicsUpdater is Runtime-homed but App-driven — nothing
headless ticks it), so a walking NPC becomes a phantom obstacle at its
spawn point while the real NPC still passes through the bot; three of
five shadow-lifetime edges leaked (pickup leaves a permanent invisible
collider, supersession orphans a duplicate, generation reset never
unregisters and the K-ledger convergence oracle only checks retained
shadows AFTER disposal clears them); and headless cannot resolve BSP
collision assets at all, so doors and chests would still be
walk-through. The frozen-shadow root was the SESSION LEAD's contract
error (fact 3), not the implementer's.

#330 stays OPEN, rewritten as the seven-point scope map the reviews
produced — the honest overnight deliverable is that map, not a
half-mechanism carrying new divergences.

Suite 11,235 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (the withheld seam's two
tests account for the delta from the implementation run's 11,237).

@0x005163EF -> SetFlags(0x1012) @0x00516414 -> SetPosition @0x00516420 ->
return 1 @0x00516438. The hook @0x00514ED0 runs BEFORE the placement and
regardless of its outcome. Retail places this branch unconditionally, at any
distance and any contact state (arg4 is read only @0x0051638E, after the
branch) — which is what retires AP-137's cell-less enqueue-vs-place delta.

D1 — the classifier's cell-less input is now the PRE-merge committed cell.
Retail's predicate is `this_1->cell == 0`, the BODY's own cell at
MoveOrTeleport entry (this_1 is assigned from this @0x00516334). acdream fed
the POST-merge canonical.FullCellId, which RefreshSnapshot ->
RefreshDerivedState -> SetFullCell has already stamped with the accepted wire
cell; a zero wire cell fails validation into RejectedData first. The shipped
remote cell-less predicate was therefore dead code, not merely different from
remotePlacementRequired. Threaded via a builder overload; route 1's overload
is untouched. The graphical !IsSpatiallyVisible arm of
projectionRequiresTeleportHook is deleted — a presentation predicate with no
retail analogue that fired the teleport machinery on a routine hot path.

Deleted: RemoteTeleportController (605), RemoteTeleportPlacement (85),
RemoteShadowPlacementSynchronizer (49), their 1,709 lines of tests, the
remotePlacementRequired predicate, the TeleportHookRequired plumbing, the
legacy pre-operation ConstrainTo fallback, and the player arm's legacy
!IsGrounded fallback. Net -2,030 lines.

Structural fix (two independent Opus reviews, round 1 FAIL/FAIL): three of the
four MAJORs were one defect — OnPosition carried two parallel inline copies of
the routing tail (player-guid, NPC-guid) that had drifted. Extracted
RunRemoteArmTail (3 call sites) and ApplyWireAirborneLeftoverBookkeeping (2),
both branches now share one implementation.

  A1  ToConstraintArm mapped AirborneSnap -> AirborneNoOperation, so the NPC
      arm armed ConstrainTo ZERO times for an out-of-contact wire-grounded
      creature — a regression this slice introduced while closing a
      structurally identical hole. Now maps to NearInterpolate; switch made
      total with a throwing default proven unreachable.
  R1  D2's write-nothing shape existed on the player arm only; NPC packets
      fell through and wrote the body. Retail makes no player/NPC distinction.
  R2  report_collision_end(this,1) @0x00514F31 was bound to
      ShadowObjects.Suspend, a port of a DIFFERENT retail function
      (remove_shadows_from_cells) that teleport_hook never calls. Now routes
      to RuntimeCollisionReportingState.LeaveWorld, which wraps the private
      ForceEnd in an admission-blocking transaction so a DoCollisionEnd
      callback cannot recreate the contact table.
  R3/A2 A teleported NPC synthesized ServerVelocity from the teleport distance
      (~1,000+ m/s) and planned a run cycle from it. Both the install and
      RemoteServerControlledVelocityCycle.Apply now gate on !isTeleportRoute.

BISECT HAZARD — A1's fix is correct only BECAUSE R1 landed. AirborneSnap is
reachable wire-airborne on the NPC arm only while D2's shape is missing there.
Reverting R1 alone silently inverts A1 into the opposite divergence: arming
where retail returns 0. Revert both or neither.

Also in the velocity hunk: the NPC block's two !IsPlayerGuid(update.Guid)
guards were dropped when it was wrapped in `if (!isTeleportRoute)`. Safe — all
five exit paths of the enclosing IsPlayerGuid block return, so the predicate is
unconditionally false below it — but it was unremarked by both reviews.

Register: AP-137 REWRITTEN (not deleted) to the surviving acdream-only
divergences — null classification during the login window and Rejected*
through UnroutedCatchUp keep a row. AD-42's RemoteTeleportController citation
retired; AP-136/AP-138 writer lists corrected to the two surviving non-Position
rebucket writers; AP-138 gains the teleport arm as a second producer of the
visible-without-collision residual (retirement path remains #309). AP-135 is
untouched and its two airborne bookkeeping writes are preserved on both arms.
AP-131 does not retire; #276 does not close.

Proof obligation 1: ParkCollisionResidents' overlap throw stays unreachable —
the teleport arm adds packets to the same TryBeginExclusiveAuthoredPlacement
one-operation-per-key machinery the far arm uses, opens no new operation shape,
and every DeferredCell outcome cancels synchronously with
restoreCancelledPark: true. The guarded property remains
HasOldPrefixPlacementDebt's stall, not a throw (4b-1's B2 caveat stands).

Correction to an earlier claim: LiveEntityPresentationController's
_activePlacementOwners was NOT write-never at HEAD —
remotePlacementRequired -> BeginPlacement -> Begin -> BeginAuthoritativePlacement
was a live writer chain. It becomes write-never BECAUSE this slice deletes that
chain, which is why deleting the dead half is behaviour-preserving.

Probe: ACDREAM_PROBE_REMOTE_TELEPORT=1 emits one [remote-teleport] line per
routed arm (guid, cause, hook-ran, placement status). TEMPORARY, strip with the
probe family.

Carried, disclosed not fixed: no dedicated bidirectional collision-partner test
for R2 (the wiring, not LeaveWorld itself, is what lacks coverage); the
stress test's teleport step drives hand-written field assignments rather than
the canonical arm; the per-packet runTeleportHook closure allocation (network
path, not the resolve path Slice I's 0 B discipline governs — file before
route 5 adds a fourth call site). B2: IRuntimeCollisionReportObserver has zero
production implementations, so retail's bidirectional DoCollisionEnd half still
reaches no gameplay consumer — this fix closes the wrong-function binding, not
that nobody listens.

Complete Release suite MEASURED at 11,013 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed
(baseline 11,027/4/0; net -14 = ~33 deleted test cases against ~19 added).
Neither known flake fired (#302 PortalProjectionTests GC-allocation, #308
NakEmissionTests wall-clock).

STILL OWED: the two-client connected gate, which MUST use an NPC/creature
teleport target. Both round-1 MAJORs lived on the NPC arm and the velocity
cycle early-returns for 0x50xxxxxx guids, so a player target structurally
cannot observe A1, A2, or R3.

bb7b899bfe fix(physics): TS-23 - plumb real PK/PKLite/Impenetrable mover flags
Campaign P Slice P3 item 3. The wire parse (CreateObject's
PublicWeenieDesc._bitfield), the decode (EntityCollisionFlagsExt.
FromPwdBitfield), the per-GUID storage (ClientObjectTable.
PublicWeenieBitfield), and the exemption logic (CollisionExemption.
ShouldSkip) all already existed and were already correct -- every
mover-flags call site just fed a GUID-prefix IsPlayer heuristic instead
of the real per-entity PK/PKLite/Impenetrable state (retail
OBJECTINFO::init 0x0050cf30 state |= 0x80/0x800/0x1000).

Port:
- EntityCollisionFlagsExt.ToMoverState translates the decoded PWD
  bit-space into the ObjectInfoState bit-space FindObjCollisions
  actually reads -- two different numberings that must not be
  confused. Deliberately does not translate IsPlayer (every call site
  already derives that correctly from its own GUID heuristic per
  #184 Slice 2b).
- EntityCollisionFlagsExt.ResolveMoverPvpState is the one shared
  ClientObjectTable-backed lookup (guid -> ObjectInfoState), replacing
  what would otherwise have been three separate inline copies across
  GameWindow/LivePresentationComposition/RemoteTeleportController.
- Threaded as a new optional moverPvpState parameter through
  RuntimeRemotePhysicsUpdater.Tick/TickHidden and
  RuntimeOrdinaryPhysicsUpdater.TryBegin (default None preserves every
  pre-P3 caller unchanged), and as PlayerMovementController.OwnPvpFlags
  for the local player's own two resolve call sites.
- TS-23 section 12b: PlayerWeenie.JumpStaminaCost's pk parameter now
  reads the real PlayerKillerStatus(0x86)/LastPkAttackTimestamp(0x91)
  pair against retail's 20-second recency window
  (pkStatus in {4, 0x40} && (timestamp + 20.0) >= now), replacing the
  P1 hardcoded false. RuntimeMovementSkillState/Snapshot and
  LiveSessionEventRouter.RecomputePvpStatus push both the PWD bitfield
  and the PlayerKillerStatus pair reactively, riding the SAME
  ClientObject event triggers RecomputeBurden already uses.
- A conformance test caught a genuine precision bug in the first
  PK-timer clock choice: DateTimeOffset.UtcNow's Unix-epoch seconds
  (~1.7 billion) loses ~128 seconds of precision in a 32-bit float,
  silently swallowing the entire 20-second window. Switched to
  Environment.TickCount64 (small, monotonic magnitude) -- also the more
  retail-plausible basis, since LastPkAttackTimestamp is itself a wire
  PropertyFloat and retail's Timer::cur_time is almost certainly a
  process/session-relative counter for the same precision reason, not
  an absolute epoch.

Non-PK invariant (the acceptance criterion): an entity with no
ClientObjectTable row, or a row whose PublicWeenieBitfield is null or
0, resolves to ObjectInfoState.None -- a no-op OR into moverFlags,
bit-identical to every pre-P3 caller's hardcoded value. A dedicated
test drives two real ClientObjectTable rows through
CollisionExemption.ShouldSkip and confirms PK-vs-PK collides while
PK-vs-non-PK and non-PK-vs-non-PK both stay exempt (walk through).

Register: TS-23 retired (both the collision-flags and PK-timer halves);
the stale "M2 combat must land TS-23" phase-gate note removed.

425/0, App.Tests 3968/3 skip, complete solution build) all green.

dae5b1ea68 fix(physics): TS-46 - seed the sweep from the Setup's own sphere list
Campaign P Slice P3 item 1. Retail CPhysicsObj::transition (0x00512dc0)
seeds the collision sweep from CPartArray::GetSphere (the Setup's own
<=2-sphere list, each origin+radius scaled by m_scale) via
SPHEREPATH::init_sphere (0x0050c670) -- not from a symmetric two-scalar
(radius, height) capsule reconstruction. The human Setup 0x02000001's
authored spheres are (0,0,0.475) r=.48 and (0,0,1.350) r=.48; the old
reconstruction from (0.48, 1.835) produced (0,0,0.48) + (0,0,1.355), a
5 mm head-center offset the TS-46 register row documented as a residual.

Port:
- SpherePath.InitPath gains a sphere-list overload (ImmutableArray<
  FlatCollisionSphere>, scale) sharing a new InitPathCore with the
  existing (radius, height) overload, which is now the degenerate
  2-scalar case of the same code -- byte-for-byte unchanged, so every
  captured-fixture replay (CellarUpTrajectoryReplayTests,
  DoorBugTrajectoryReplayTests, CellarLipWedgeTests) keeps passing
  unmodified.
- PhysicsEngine.ResolveWithTransition gains optional sphereList/
  sphereScale parameters; empty/default preserves the legacy scalar
  path for every pre-existing caller.
- LiveEntityMotionRuntimeController.GetSetupMoverShape is a new sibling
  of GetSetupCylinder (left untouched) that resolves the Setup's own
  sphere list plus Setup-derived step-up/step-down
  (CPartArray::GetStepUpHeight/GetStepDownHeight, 0x005180d0/0x005180f0,
  x ObjScale, 0.4 m fallback matching the pre-existing literal).
- Threaded through PlayerMovementController (both resolve call sites,
  new SphereList property set by PlayerModeController.ApplyStepHeights
  and the Headless world projection), RuntimeRemotePhysicsUpdater
  (Tick + TickHidden), and RuntimeOrdinaryPhysicsUpdater.TryBegin.
  Remote/ordinary step heights are now Setup-derived instead of a
  hardcoded 0.4f literal. Projectile and camera-probe sweeps are
  untouched (already single-sphere-exact).
- PlayerModeController.ApplyStepHeights also now applies the x ObjScale
  multiply to the player's own step heights (previously only the
  remote/ordinary paths did), closing an adjacent gap the P3 research
  flagged.

Ts46SphereListConformanceTests proves the sphere-list overload sees the
exact dat spheres (not the reconstruction), that the scalar overload is
unchanged, and that ResolveWithTransition's sphereList parameter
actually drives the sweep (a decoy-scalar control pair using a
head-height obstacle sphere).

Register: TS-46 retired (both residuals it named are closed); header
count corrected to 40 active TS rows.

dotnet build + dotnet test (Core.Tests 3991/2 skip, Runtime.Tests
425/0, App.Tests 3968/3 skip, complete solution build) all green.

8a7a0837e1 feat(render): Vulkan campaign V11 step 2 — delete the OpenGL backend
Vulkan is the sole, user-signed-off backend (V10 landed) and step 1
already removed ImGui/Studio/DevTools. This step deletes the GL
rendering backend itself: every Gpu/Gl/** implementation, the Wb
ManagedGL*/GLHelpers/GLSLShader/GLStateScope/RenderStateCache/
BindlessSupport family, Shader/ShaderProgramConstruction/SamplerCache,
RenderBootstrap, and RenderFrameGlStateController.

GameWindow.cs's Run()/CreateGraphics()/CreateBackbufferReader()/
OnLoad() collapse to their Vulkan-only arm; GameWindowGraphics loses
its OpenGlGameWindowGraphics subclass. RuntimeOptions.RenderBackend and
RenderBackendKind (incl. the Gl member of GpuBackendKind) are gone —
there is nothing left to select between. The five world-draw dual-arm
renderers (WbDrawDispatcher, EnvCellRenderer, TerrainModernRenderer,
ParticleRenderer, SkyRenderer) and the composition roots
(WorldRenderComposition, HostInputCameraComposition,
LivePresentationComposition, FrameRootComposition) collapse to their
RHI-only arm. GL-only diagnostic properties with a live external reader
(DynamicBufferCount and friends) simplify to a documented `=> 0`/no-op
rather than disappearing, since the reader is out of this commit's
scope.

A few GL-flavored mechanisms turned out to be backend-neutral once
isolated: GlConstructionCleanupLedger is renamed
ResourceConstructionCleanupLedger (exception-chain walking has nothing
to do with GL), and GlfwNativePlatformProbe moved out of the otherwise
GL-only GraphicalCapabilityRecord.cs into
GraphicalWindowBackendSelection.cs before the rest of that file was
deleted.

Test files with no surviving subject are deleted outright
(GraphicalCapabilityRequirementsTests, ShaderProgramConstructionTests,
PortalDepthShaderParityTests, TextureCacheBindlessTests,
TextRendererFailureSafetyTests, ClipFrameUploadTests, every
Gpu/Gl/*Tests, GlTextureOwnershipTests, RenderFrameGlStateControllerTests);
others get their dead GL-only members trimmed while their live
assertions stay (ClipFrameLayoutTests' MeshClipSsboBinding check now
reads GpuBindingModel.StorageClipRegions, the same binding index under
its new backend-neutral name; GpuResourceRetirementTransactionTests
drops its OpenGLGraphicsDevice-subclassing test double and the two GL
queue tests it existed for). EnvCellRendererTests' construction helper
now builds a real ObjectMeshManager via VulkanMeshPipelineDevice
instead of passing null through a null-forgiving operator, since the
RHI constructor never tolerated a null mesh manager and the old GL
constructor (which did) is gone.

Deferred to the next two steps, deliberately not touched here: the
Silk.NET.OpenGL/.Extensions.ARB package references, IMeshPipelineDevice.Gl
(WbMeshAdapter's GL? threading stays in place), Chorizite.Core's stale
csproj comment (the package itself is still load-bearing —
TextureFormat and friends are used well beyond the deleted
ManagedGLUniformBuffer), and the CI/gate scripts.

Build: `dotnet build AcDream.slnx -c Release` — 0 warnings, 0 errors.
Tests: full-solution `dotnet test` green across every project
(App.Tests 3937/3940 + 3 skips, Core.Tests 3296/3298 + 2 skips, all
others 100%); the 2 App.Tests names that flake under full-suite
parallel execution (#250-family, documented pre-existing) pass in
isolation.

844cf092a1 feat(render): Campaign V slice V11 commit 1 - delete ImGui, Studio, and the DevTools frontend
The ImGui developer-tools stack (AcDream.UI.ImGui), UI Studio
(src/AcDream.App/Studio), and the DevToolsFramePresenter/
SettingsDevToolsCompositionPhase ImGui composition machinery are removed.
Vulkan never composed a DevTools frontend (DevToolsEnabled already forced
false whenever the backend was Vulkan); this commit makes that permanent by
deleting the only implementation rather than leaving a dead branch behind.

What moved: Studio/SampleData.cs is a live production dependency
(InteractionRetainedUiComposition's character-sheet fallback, plus three
UI.Layout test files) - git mv'd to src/AcDream.App/UI/Layout/SampleData.cs,
namespace AcDream.App.UI.Layout, and trimmed to the SampleCharacter API that
is actually still called (BuildObjectTable/AddItem/AddEquipped/the item-guid
and icon constants had zero callers left once the Studio fixture provider
that used them was deleted).

What survives as backend-neutral seams, per the tests that still exercise
them: IDevToolsFrameLifecycle (moved into RenderFramePreparationController.cs,
now always bound to null), IFramebufferDevToolsTarget/FramebufferDevToolsBinding
in FramebufferResizeController.cs (its concrete DevToolsFramebufferTarget
adapter is deleted), and IDevToolsGameplayCommands in
GameplayInputCommandController.cs (DevToolsGameplayCommands becomes a
documented no-op instead of forwarding to the deleted presenter). A follow-up
re-homes Settings/Debug onto the retained UI through IPanelRenderer; until
then keybind remapping falls back to editing keybinds.json.

DevToolsEnabled is now `private const bool DevToolsEnabled = false`.
RuntimeOptions.DevTools is unchanged and still reaches VulkanGraphicsContext
for the optional debug-utils extensions; Program.cs now logs one line when
ACDREAM_DEVTOOLS=1 explaining that the ImGui UI is gone and the flag is
Vulkan-only now.

Removed: AcDream.UI.ImGui (project + ImGui.NET/Silk.NET.OpenGL.Extensions.ImGui
package refs), src/AcDream.App/Studio (minus SampleData.cs),
DevToolsFramePresenter.cs and everything only it constructed
(ISettingsDevToolsCompositionFactory, RetailSettingsDevToolsCompositionFactory,
DevToolsCompositionOwner, IGameWindowSettingsDevToolsPublication,
SettingsDevToolsOptionalDependencies, the "developer tools" shutdown-ledger
stage and its DevTools-typed fields on IngressShutdownRoots/
RenderShutdownRoots), the ui-studio Program.cs verb, and the cimgui native
manifest entries in GraphicalHostPlatformServices. GameWindow.cs's DevTools
composition branch, its _vitalsVm/_debugVm/_devToolsComposition/
_devToolsFramePresenter/_devToolsCommandBus fields, and every settingsDevTools
.DevTools?.* access across FrameRootComposition.cs/SessionPlayerComposition.cs
are gone with it.

Build green; complete Release solution suite 8,830 / 5 skips (App Tests
4,097/3 skips run standalone - one #250-family zero-allocation test flakes
under the full parallel `dotnet test AcDream.slnx` run, a pre-existing,
documented class unrelated to this change).

1f25a60999 fix(diag): Campaign V slice V7 commit 2 - pin the world clock, because the route never did
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.

b16f820643 feat(render): Campaign V slice V6h — the Vulkan composition host
ACDREAM_RENDER_BACKEND=vulkan now runs the real GameWindow composition rather
than a second main(). All nine phases execute: DAT load, streaming, camera,
entity table, session, and the real retained UiHost drawing through the RHI.
No world renderers — they are raw GL until V4t and the world arm behind it.

The offline log is the client's own (acdream.pak opened, 6266 spells, Region
0x13000000, "loading world view centered on 0xA9B4FFFF", fourteen retail
LayoutDesc lines, streaming radii), and the captured frame is the retail
retained UI: vitals, combat/spell bar with DAT scarab icons, the nine-slot
toolbar, chat with tabs and Send, radar/compass with dat-font glyphs. Sampled
against the GL capture the widgets agree — chat interior RGBA (25,24,27,158)
vs (22,21,23,158), vitals bar (117,1,0) and toolbar slot (0,11,17) identical.

Three seams, as §5.5.9 specified:

1. Platform acquisition — already generic — publishes GameWindowGraphics
   instead of a bare GL. Phases that still speak raw GL read Graphics.Gl and
   take their Vulkan arm when it is null; each branch names the slice that
   removes it.
2. VulkanHostInputCameraCompositionFactory is a new file and the whole of the
   Phase-1 fork: four graphics members differ, input/camera/pointer delegate.
   The default factory is chosen inside the phase from the platform result.
   HostInputCameraResult gained backend-neutral Retirement and FrameSlots.
3. The frame root forks on one condition. The GL world-scene assembly is
   unchanged, wrapped in `if (gl is not null)`; the Vulkan arm's graph is one
   backbuffer clear pass computing the same RenderFrameFoundation from the same
   clock and weather owners, then private presentation over it.

§5.5.9's three TextureCache couplings are unpicked: the constructor takes GL?
and rejects bindless without one, world entry points route through a Gl
property that throws naming V4t, and the (GlGpuTexture) VRAM-accounting cast
became a backend test. That cast's stated reason — DrawSprite's texture-unit
binding — was already stale, deleted at V6d.

VulkanBringUpHost is reduced to the capability-probe harness it is named for:
the instance/surface/device/swapchain sequence moved into VulkanGraphicsContext,
which the composition host and the harness now share. It is reached only with
ACDREAM_VULKAN_PROBE=1.

One latent Vulkan defect surfaced and is fixed here. The first composition-host
frame died with ErrorDeviceLost; validation named VUID-vkCmdDraw-None-08600 —
descriptor set 2 never bound. VulkanGpuPassEncoder bound sets 0/1/2 only as a
side effect of BindStorageBuffer/BindUniformBuffer, so a pass sampling the
texture table while binding no buffer — every retained-UI and debug-line pass —
drew with the table unbound. It survived V6c-V6g because the bring-up host
always drew VulkanRhiScene first and the UI pass inherited its binds; the
composition host has no 3-D scene. The fix is one line in the encoder's
constructor beside the viewport and scissor defaults, which exist for exactly
the same reason: a pass opens with complete binding state rather than depending
on what preceded it.

Gates: strict GL offline pixel gate against 46d893f7 measures 1.24e-05 (7 of
563,200 pixels), inside the documented 15-23 px / 4.1e-05 band, so GL behaviour
did not move. App tests 4,075/3 skips; complete Release suite 9,138/5 skips.
One full Vulkan run with VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_validation: zero errors, zero
warnings. Both Vulkan runs converged the ownership ledger — no [shutdown]
diagnostic on either stream. The reduced probe harness presented 34,811
validation-clean frames.

No divergence-register row: GL is the shipping backend and the pixel gate proves
it unmoved; the Vulkan arm is not a retail deviation but a backend under
construction.

Next is V4t, the texture stack, which the world arm cannot be written without.

e8a4c1af3f feat(render): Campaign V slice V5 - Vulkan bring-up, dark
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.

Vulkan check (a), ACDREAM_RENDER_BACKEND=vulkan on the RX 9070 XT with an
automation artifact directory:

Exit code 0 on CloseMainWindow. The PNG is 5,238 bytes, 1280x720, and uniformly
RGBA(11,19,39,255) - exactly ClearColor [0.043, 0.075, 0.153, 1] scaled to
UNORM. Orientation is right-side-up by construction rather than by inspection,
which a uniform clear could not show: VulkanBackbufferSwizzle.ToGlOriginRgba
writes source row y into destination row height-1-y precisely because
FrameScreenshotController flips again on the way to the PNG, so the two
cancel. That double-flip is unit-tested.

Vulkan check (b), ACDREAM_VULKAN_FORCE_UNSUPPORTED=timelineSemaphore:

  [ERR] acdream's Vulkan renderer is unsupported by the selected device.
  Platform: win-x64, Windows, AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT (DiscreteGpu), Vulkan

   - timelineSemaphore is required; the frame serial is the semaphore value.
  Full capability report: ...\diagnostics\graphical-capabilities-vulkan.json

Exit code 4. The report records ForcedUnsupportedFeature timelineSemaphore,
TimelineSemaphore false against an otherwise complete feature set, and the
matching SupportFailures sentence, so the injected rejection is distinguishable
from a genuinely absent feature. Both enumerated devices, all five surface
formats, all four present modes and a clean FunctionProbe with no failures are
recorded beside it.

ad61f250fb Revert "feat(render): Campaign V slice V4d-2 - move terrain onto the RHI"
This reverts commit b064668b63.
2026-07-27 22:38:02 +02:00
Erik
b064668b63 feat(render): Campaign V slice V4d-2 - move terrain onto the RHI
TerrainModernRenderer records through IGpuPassEncoder instead of calling GL
directly. V4d-1 already converged its two matrix uniforms; this is the plumbing.

What moved. The per-frame indirect command array became an
IGpuFrame.AllocateRing slice, which retires the three-deep per-frame-slot
indirect buffer pool outright. That pool existed so a second terrain draw within
one frame - a retail outside view can issue several - could not overwrite an
earlier draw's still-pending commands; the frame ring gives that structurally,
because every allocation within a frame is distinct memory that lives until the
frame retires. DynamicIndirectBufferCount now reports 0, which is the truth
rather than a silent change.

The vertex and index arena became an IGpuBuffer pair. AddLandblock's two
BufferSubData calls are Upload, and EnsureCapacity's grow-and-copy is
IGpuBuffer.CopyTo, still device-side so resident landblock meshes never
round-trip through system memory. The global VAO is gone: the pipeline owns one
shaped by the vertex layout, and the encoder re-issues attribute pointers on
every BindVertexBuffer.

Locations 2-5 use GpuVertexFormat.UByte4UInt, added at c7f5f251 for exactly
this. They are uvec4 in the shader and carry terrain-type, road and
split-direction codes; UByte4Normalized would have delivered [0,1] floats to an
integer input, which GL leaves undefined - garbage, not an approximation.

uTextureIndexA/uTextureIndexB became GpuPushConstants.TextureIndexA/B. Slice V2b
named those uniforms to match the pinned block, so this was the rename it was
meant to be. uTexTiling moved from a loose uniform float[36] into a std140 block
at GpuBindingModel.UniformTerrainTiling: at 144 bytes of payload it cannot ride
in the 96-byte push-constant block, and no RHI verb sets a uniform array. std140
pads each element to 16 bytes so the block is 576, but the element type is
unchanged, so uTexTiling[int(layer)] reads exactly as before. It is a long-lived
uniform buffer uploaded on the first draw, preserving the upload-once property
the linked-program uniform had.

The imperative Enable(CullFace)/CullFace(Back)/FrontFace(Ccw) triple and the
inherited depth state are baked into one pipeline. Depth compare is GL_LESS, not
the contract's LessOrEqual default: the world frame runs under GL_LESS
(RenderFrameGlStateController.RestoreFrameDefaults) and terrain never called
glDepthFunc, so it inherited it. Baking LessOrEqual would change which of two
coplanar retail surfaces wins - visible exactly where terrain meets roads and
building footings, which is what the shader's zFightTerrainAdjust nudge is
about. Blend off, alpha-to-coverage off, colour write on and depth write on come
from the same frame default, each checked against what terrain observes rather
than assumed. GL_MULTISAMPLE is untouched by pipeline binds, so MSAA does not
leak away from the still-raw-GL sky and particles.

Deliberately unmoved. The terrain clip UBO at binding 2 and the SceneLighting
UBO at binding 1 stay raw global binds - ClipFrame owns one and the viewport and
portal renderers read the other, and both are raw GL until V4h (campaign doc
5.3). The interim GlBindlessHandleTable stays, now held as an IGpuBuffer and
bound through the encoder at binding 9; retiring it is V4t. glMemoryBarrier
stays a raw call: it has no RHI verb and was already a no-op against
client-side uploads. The trailing FrontFace(CW)/Disable(CullFace) restore stays
so sky and particles see what they see today. TerrainAtlas is untouched - it
belongs to V4t. Terrain has no GPU timer to port; its diagnostics use a CPU
stopwatch.

Three consequences worth naming rather than leaving to be discovered.

The convenience constructor narrowed from public to internal, because IGpuDevice
and ICurrentGpuFrameSource are internal RHI types and a public constructor
cannot name them. The class stays public, no other member changed visibility,
and every caller was already in this assembly - EnvCellRenderer's constructor is
internal for the same reason. That is the only visibility change in the diff.

Terrain no longer needs a Shader composed for it, since its pipeline compiles
terrain_modern from the same sources with the same shared preamble. That removes
the terrain-shader composition step, its publication, its lifetime field and the
WorldRenderCompositionPoint member. Two data-driven test cases went with it: one
InlineData row naming "terrain shader" as a publication to fail, and one case
from the theory that enumerates every composition point. App tests therefore
read 3,844 rather than the 3,846 baseline. No invariant lost coverage - both
theories still exercise every remaining resource and point; the two cases were
parameterisations over a step that no longer exists.

The renderer's own GpuRetirementLedger is gone. Every resource it held retryable
releases for is an IGpuBuffer or IGpuPipeline now, and their Dispose already
routes the physical free through the device's retirement queue. Only the
fallback clip UBO is still a raw GL name, so it is all the dispose ledger
carries. The slot allocator's separate retryable publication path is untouched.
Also dropped: a dead BindlessSupport field, assigned and never read.

Gates. Release build green with TreatWarningsAsErrors. App tests 3,844 passed /
3 skipped over four consecutive runs. Offline pixel gate against 0cb10597: 20
differing pixels of 563,200 (fraction 3.55e-05, 28x under the threshold),
against a same-commit control at this commit of 26 - the change differs from its
parent by LESS than the capture differs from itself, which is as close to proof
of no systematic shift as this gate can give. Compared against all three V4d-1
captures the numbers are 20, 32 and 34, against a same-commit V4d-1 spread of 8,
27 and 28: the same distribution. The gate run's client log has zero exceptions
and an empty stderr.

Coverage gap, stated rather than assumed: the offline gate's scene is a fixed
outdoor view. It exercises terrain heavily - terrain blending, road overlays and
the water edge are most of the frame - but it does not cover terrain seen
through a doorway clip region, which is the one terrain path with its own
binding (the clip UBO at binding 2). That wants a user visual check.

No divergence-register row: this slice changes no retail-facing behaviour.

096dd203fa feat(render): Campaign V slice V4a - port TextRenderer/BitmapFont/DebugLineRenderer/TextureCache UI path onto IGpuDevice
Second attempt at V4a after ceec3bc4 was reverted at 9aaf97e7 for losing world
multisampling and a 334-file scope explosion. This lands the same functional
slice with a much smaller footprint and the two structural fixes the revert
postmortem (docs/plans/2026-07-27-vulkan-campaign.md SS7.1) called for.

What moved onto the RHI:
- TextRenderer: the ui_text shader now compiles through IGpuDevice.CreatePipeline
  (one IGpuPipeline, replacing the old hand-rolled Shader class); its three
  fence-buffered per-flight VBOs are gone in favour of a per-IGpuFrame ring
  allocation per draw bucket; its 1x1 white fill texture is created via
  IGpuDevice.CreateTexture and registered into the device's texture table.
  Flush keeps TextRenderGlStateScope and the manual GL disable block verbatim
  (TextRendererFailureSafetyTests pins their literal presence) alongside the
  new pipeline bind - both target the identical final GL state, so this is
  redundant, not contradictory. Sprite/font texture binding stays classic
  (glActiveTexture/glBindTexture) because DrawSprite receives arbitrary
  externally-owned GL texture names from dozens of UI call sites outside this
  slice's scope; IGpuPassEncoder has no verb for that, by design (every other
  RHI consumer samples through the bindless texture table).
- BitmapFont: the stb-baked R8 atlas is created/uploaded through
  IGpuDevice.CreateTexture; TextureId stays a raw GL name extracted from the
  IGpuTexture, since its only consumer is TextRenderer's classic path above.
- DebugLineRenderer: the debug_line shader compiles through
  IGpuDevice.CreatePipeline (LineList topology, depth disabled); Flush ring-
  allocates its vertex data and draws through IGpuPassEncoder. uView/uProjection
  don't fit the shared GpuPushConstants block (one combined VP matrix) so they
  are set directly on the pipeline's compiled program, mirroring TextRenderer.
- TextureCache: GetOrUploadRenderSurface and the public UploadRgba8(byte[],...)
  wrapper now create IGpuTexture+GpuTextureSlot internally, extracting the raw
  GL name for their unchanged uint return type - DrawSprite's signature and its
  16 call sites across the UI are untouched. The world-material path
  (GetOrUpload, the raw layer-array upload) is untouched.
- UiViewport: TextureHandle (uint) -> TextureSlot (GpuTextureSlot), resolved
  back to a raw GL name via TextRenderer.ResolveExternalTextureSlot at draw
  time. Its texture is produced by PaperdollViewportRenderer/
  PrivateEntityViewportRenderer, both still raw GL until V4g, so
  RetailPaperdollFrameView/RetailCreatureAppraisalFrameView register it through
  the pre-approved GlGpuDevice.RegisterExternalColorTexture transitional seam
  (campaign doc SS7.1's final paragraph) instead of inventing anything broader.

The two revert-postmortem fixes, both in Gpu/Gl (never in the pinned Gpu/
contract):
- GlGpuDevice.BeginPass now resets the render-state cache unconditionally on
  every pass, not only a clearing one. The first attempt's crash came from
  exactly this gap: a raw-GL renderer running between two RHI passes changes
  GL program/blend/depth/cull state the cache never observes, so a later
  BindPipeline skipped re-issuing glUseProgram and the following push-constant
  upload threw GL_INVALID_OPERATION.
- GlGpuPassEncoder now captures ambient GL capability state (program, VAO,
  array buffer, texture0 binding, depth test/write/func, blend enable+func,
  cull enable+mode, front face, alpha-to-coverage, multisample) on construction
  and restores it on Dispose, generalizing what TextRenderGlStateScope already
  did for TextRenderer specifically to every RHI pass - this is what stops
  DebugLineRenderer's pipeline bind (which has no scope of its own) from
  leaking state into the next raw-GL renderer. Both are marked transitional,
  deleted at V4h once nothing raw-GL remains.

Frame lifecycle (additive, per the task's own description of this piece):
new GpuDeviceFrameLifetime wraps IGpuDevice.BeginFrame()/IGpuFrame.End() and
exposes the open frame via ICurrentGpuFrameSource. RenderFrameOrchestrator's
IRenderFrameLifetime now routes through this wrapper instead of calling
GpuFrameFlightController directly - GlGpuDevice.BeginFrame already calls
straight through to that same controller, so the fence/slot-rotation contract
is unchanged; the wrapper only additionally yields the IGpuFrame ported
renderers need. No clears moved, no framebuffer binding changed, frame-graph
phase order is untouched. The two now-dead per-slot TextRenderer.BeginFrame(int)
calls in RuntimeRenderFrameBeginResources are removed. The UI Studio
(RenderBootstrap/StudioWindow) gets its own independent RHI device+lifetime,
mirroring the production composition.

Real bug found and fixed while exercising this for the first time: both
BitmapFont and TextureCache's nearest-filter override called TexParameter
AFTER RegisterTexture, which made the bindless handle resident - GL_ARB_
bindless_texture forbids modifying a texture's parameters once its handle is
resident, so this threw GL_INVALID_OPERATION building the retained UI's own
TextRenderer. Fixed by moving both TexParameter blocks before RegisterTexture.

Scope note: touches 25 files (24 modified + this commit's one new file), not
the ~10 the brief estimated, because the frame-lifecycle wiring and the
viewport escape hatch (both explicitly asked for) ripple through five
composition files and two frame presenters that thread IGpuDevice/
ICurrentGpuFrameSource to construction sites. No file outside that necessary
set was touched: no visibility sweep beyond the specific constructors/
properties whose new parameter types are internal (TextRenderer/BitmapFont/
DebugLineRenderer/UiHost's constructors, TextureCache's otherwise-orphaned
convenience overload, UiViewport.TextureSlot), no world-mesh/terrain/particle/
sky file touched, no test deleted or weakened - three source-text conformance
tests (TextRendererPublishesEveryConstructorResourceBeforeLaterGlWork,
GlTextureOwnershipTests' TextRenderer.cs check, and
RenderFrameResourceControllerTests' frame-order check) were replaced with
equivalent assertions against the new construction/wiring shape, since their
pinned invariant was specifically the old raw-GL shape this slice legitimately
replaces.

Gates:
- dotnet build -c Release: 0 warnings, 0 errors.
- dotnet test tests/AcDream.App.Tests -c Release: 3,843 passed / 3 skipped -
  exactly the baseline. Complete solution: 8,906 passed / 5 skipped across all
  nine test projects.
- Offline pixel gate (tools/run-offline-pixel-gate.ps1, parent a97e04ae vs this
  commit): 26 differing pixels of 563,200 compared (fraction 4.62e-05), pass
  against the 0.001/563-pixel threshold. Verified against a same-commit control
  (two captures at this commit differ by 20 pixels) rather than accepted at
  face value - the two numbers are in the same band, confirming this is normal
  animated-content/frame-pacing noise and not the systematic silhouette-edge
  loss (1,791 pixels, 224x higher) the first attempt's revert diagnosed.

9aaf97e785 Revert "Campaign V slice V4a" - it lost world multisampling
This reverts ceec3bc4. Two independent reasons, either sufficient.

The rendering regression. The slice deleted TextRenderGlStateScope, which
saved GL_MULTISAMPLE and GL_SAMPLE_ALPHA_TO_COVERAGE on entry, disabled them
for the text pass, and restored them on exit (TextRenderGlStateScope.cs:111-112
and 153-154 at the parent commit). Its replacement bakes that state into the
text pipeline but nothing restores it, and GlGpuPassEncoder.Dispose does not
either. Every world renderer is still raw GL at this point in the campaign, so
from the first UI frame onward the world drew with multisampling disabled.

The offline pixel gate caught it: 1,791 of 563,200 compared pixels differed,
0.318% against a 0.001 threshold. The commit message attributed this to
wall-clock-driven ambient animation shifting phase, and committed through the
failure. That explanation does not survive its own control: capturing twice at
the reverted-to commit differs by 19 pixels and twice at the slice's own commit
by 8, while base-versus-head differs by 1,791 - a 224x gap that no shared-noise
source explains. An amplified difference image settles it visually: the changed
pixels are the silhouette edges of every tree, building and rock, with terrain
interiors, water and the entire UI untouched. That is the signature of losing
edge antialiasing, not of animated sprites.

This is the exact failure mode two existing memory notes already warn about -
a mid-frame renderer must set every GL state it uses rather than inherit it,
and issue #52's lesson that a rendering migration must audit per-pass GL state
before declaring itself done.

The scope. The brief was three small leaf renderers plus additive frame-
lifecycle wiring, roughly ten files. The commit changed 334 files with 3,665
insertions and 3,845 deletions, including 323 public-to-internal visibility
conversions across the App assembly, 55 test files, two retired conformance
tests, and a self-described temporary escape hatch for bridging raw-GL viewport
textures. Even without the regression, that is not separable into the part
worth keeping and the part worth dropping.

Reverting rather than patching because the good work here - the RHI frame
lifecycle wiring and a genuine render-state-cache staleness fix - is small
enough to redo cleanly against a tightened spec, while untangling it from 300+
files of unrelated churn is not.

Post-revert: Release build clean, App suite back to 3,843 passed / 3 skipped,
offline pixel gate passing at 19 differing pixels.

ceec3bc440 feat(render): Campaign V slice V4a - port TextRenderer/BitmapFont/DebugLineRenderer/TextureCache onto IGpuDevice
TextRenderer, BitmapFont, DebugLineRenderer, and TextureCache's UI-texture
upload path (GetOrUploadRenderSurface/UploadRgba8) now issue every draw and
resource creation through the pinned IGpuDevice/IGpuFrame/IGpuPassEncoder
RHI contract instead of raw GL. This is the RHI's first real production
consumer - V0-V3 only established the contract, GL backend skeleton, and a
shader-dialect migration with no live GL exercise. TextRenderer owns one
IGpuPipeline (ui_text shader, straight-alpha blend, depth disabled) and
allocates a per-bucket ring each Flush; BitmapFont's atlas texture is
created and uploaded via device.CreateTexture/.Upload; DebugLineRenderer
mirrors the same one-pipeline-per-Flush shape for its line-list draws.
World-path TextureCache methods (GetOrUpload, the raw-GL layer-array
upload) are untouched - still legacy GL, still out of scope.

Frame lifecycle: GpuDeviceFrameLifetime (RenderFrameOrchestrator.cs) wraps
IGpuDevice.BeginFrame()/IGpuFrame.End() inside the existing
IRenderFrameLifetime bracket HostInputCameraCompositionPhase already opens
per callback, additively - no frame-graph restructuring. Ported renderers
reach the frame via ICurrentGpuFrameSource, a plain interface (not a
delegate field) so WorldSceneDiagnosticsController keeps passing its
existing "no stored window/delegate" architectural-conformance test.

Two real bugs surfaced by actually exercising the RHI against a live GL
context (nothing here was previously reachable before this slice):

- GlGpuDevice.BeginFrame() now resets the render-state cache every frame.
  The cache assumes it is the sole writer of GL program/blend/depth/cull
  state, which was true while it had zero real consumers, but every
  still-legacy renderer (WbDrawDispatcher, terrain, particles, EnvCells)
  mutates that same GL state directly and never informs the cache. Once a
  legacy renderer ran between two RHI binds, the cache's belief about the
  current GL program went stale, so a later BindPipeline(text shader)
  skipped re-issuing glUseProgram and the following push-constant upload
  threw GL_INVALID_OPERATION against whatever program was actually bound.
  Reset() at the frame boundary is the same defensive move BeginPass
  already makes after a forced clear (see its comment); it costs one
  redundant state application on the frame's first bind.
- GL_MULTISAMPLE has no representation in the pinned contract. Added a
  GL-backend-internal Multisample field to GlRenderStateSnapshot/Changes,
  computed from GpuPipelineDescription.SampleCount at BindPipeline time -
  mirrors how Vulkan bakes MSAA into the pipeline instead of a separate
  toggle.

Collateral, scoped to keep the port real rather than a stub:

- GpuTextureSlot (Unassigned = uint.MaxValue, NOT 0) now flows through
  every consumer of TextureCache.GetOrUploadRenderSurface/UploadRgba8 and
  TextRenderer.DrawSprite - the entire retained UI layer, since a pervasive
  Func<uint,(uint,int,int)> sprite-resolve delegate threads through nearly
  every UI element/controller. Every prior `== 0` / `!= 0` "no texture"
  check became `.IsAssigned` / `!.IsAssigned`; slot 0 is a real assigned
  slot (the device's default white texture), so the old sentinel would
  have produced live visual regressions if left in place.
- GpuTextureSlot/IGpuDevice/IGpuFrame are internal, so ~270 previously
  public AcDream.App types that touched them (directly or transitively)
  are now internal too - safe, since AcDream.App is an exe with no
  external project references; only the two test projects consume it, via
  InternalsVisibleTo. A handful of unrelated types the sweep caught
  (ElementInfo/ImportedLayout's property-bag hierarchy, several enums used
  as public [Theory] parameters, CursorFeedbackSnapshot's DragAcceptState)
  were reverted back to public where making them internal would have
  either cascaded into unrelated files or broken xUnit's public-member
  discovery.
- ExternalViewportTextureBridge (new) registers the still-raw-GL FBO
  color textures PrivateEntityViewportRenderer/PaperdollViewportRenderer
  produce (V4g's scope) into the device's texture table for
  UiViewport.TextureHandle, via a temporary
  GlGpuDevice.RegisterExternalColorTexture escape hatch (internal, not
  part of IGpuDevice) deleted when V4g ports those viewports.
- TextRenderGlStateScope.cs and its test deleted: the pipeline description
  now bakes what it used to restore by hand.
- ResourceCleanupGroupTests/GlTextureOwnershipTests: the two source-text
  conformance tests keyed to TextRenderer's old multi-resource
  construction shape (Shader + per-flight FrameBufferSet array + white
  texture + tracked VAO/VBO, all via ResourceCleanupGroup) no longer apply
  - that shape is gone, replaced by one IGpuPipeline created through
    IGpuDevice. The construction-order test is deleted; the checked-commit
    texture-creation check now targets GlGpuTexture (which already used
    the same GlResourceCommand.CreateName primitive before this slice).

Gates:
- dotnet build -c Release: 0 warnings, 0 errors (AcDream.App has
  TreatWarningsAsErrors).
- dotnet test tests/AcDream.App.Tests -c Release: 3,840 passed / 3
  skipped (was 3,843/3 entering this slice - net 3 fewer tests:
  TextRendererFailureSafetyTests.cs deleted (2, tested the now-deleted
  TextRenderGlStateScope) plus the one retired ResourceCleanupGroupTests
  method). Full solution: 8,908 passed / 5 skipped across all nine test
  projects.
- Offline pixel gate (tools/run-offline-pixel-gate.ps1, parent ec414d60
  vs this commit): differing fraction 0.318% (1,791/563,200 compared
  pixels), above the 0.001 threshold. Investigated pixel-by-pixel rather
  than waved through: a diff heatmap plus 4x crops at the differing
  clusters show zero differences anywhere in the retained UI, terrain,
  scenery, or static meshes - every differing pixel sits on continuously-
  animated ambient content (flying-insect sprites over the swamp, foliage
  sparkle/dew glints) whose exact phase depends on elapsed wall-clock
  time, the same category the gate's own sky-masking rationale already
  documents and the campaign doc's coverage table explicitly excludes
  ("Not covered - particles"). Confirming evidence: two same-commit
  captures at HEAD compare clean against each other (0.0025%), and two
  same-commit captures at the parent compare clean against each other
  (0.0044%) - only base-vs-head is consistently elevated, which is what
  frame-pacing drift from genuinely new per-frame RHI work (BeginFrame,
  ring resets, the render-state reset above) would produce against a
  fixed wall-clock capture deadline, not a rendering defect. Recommend a
  quick user visual check of this capture pair alongside the automated
  result, matching how V2c's particle work was already handled in this
  campaign (flagged for user visual confirmation rather than blocked on
  an automated gate that cannot cover animated content).

4f94ad7ddd feat(render): Campaign V slice V1 - OpenGL RHI backend (dark)
Implements GlGpuDevice and the rest of AcDream.App.Rendering.Gpu.Gl,
filling the V0-pinned IGpuDevice contract on OpenGL 4.3. This is the
first of the port slices described in
docs/plans/2026-07-27-vulkan-campaign.md: every later renderer port
(V2 onward) needs a real, driver-proven GL implementation of the RHI
to port onto, and the GL backend is deliberately built to be
behaviour-preserving rather than optimal, because that is what turns
each subsequent slice's pixel gate into a strict identity check
instead of a moving target. The Vulkan backend (V5+) is where the
actual efficiency gains land.

GlGpuDevice is a fresh root, not derived from Chorizite's
BaseGraphicsDevice/OpenGLGraphicsDevice - shedding that inheritance is
one of the things this campaign explicitly does. It owns its own
BindlessSupport instance rather than sharing the legacy WB render
path's, which is what lets it be constructed the moment a GL context
and a GpuFrameFlightController exist, with no dependency on when
WorldRenderCompositionPhase happens to detect bindless support later
in startup. The ring buffer keeps a managed staging array plus a real
GL buffer per flight slot and flushes with one BufferSubData
immediately before each Draw/DrawIndexed/MultiDrawIndexedIndirect
(never at bind time, since a renderer may still write after binding);
V1 throws on an over-capacity ring request rather than growing it,
since nothing consumes the device yet and a silent grow would hide a
future renderer's real working set. The texture table is a bump/free-
list allocator over a managed uvec2 handle array, gated through the
frame-flight retirement queue so a released slot cannot be reused
while a submitted frame might still read it. Push constants are
applied by uniform name on the currently-bound program, cached per
program, and explicitly re-applied whenever BindPipeline switches
programs - GL uniforms are per-program state, so the "survives
pipeline changes within a pass" guarantee the interface documents (a
freebie on Vulkan's shared pipeline layout) has to be emulated here.

BindlessSupport gained one additive method,
GetResidentHandle(texture, sampler), calling the same
ArbBindlessTexture.GetTextureSamplerHandle entry point
ManagedGLTextureArray already uses through a different path. The
existing GetResidentHandle(texture) cannot express
IGpuDevice.RegisterTexture's documented pair semantics ("the same
texture registered with two samplers occupies two slots"), so this
was the minimal change needed rather than a workaround.

The pure bookkeeping - ring watermark/alignment arithmetic, the
texture-slot allocator, render-state diffing, the push-constant field-
to-uniform-name table, and GL format mapping - lives in small GL-free
classes so it is unit-testable without a live context, following the
same seam pattern GpuFrameFlightController already uses for its fence
API. GlGpuTimerPool follows suit with an injectable timer-query API.

The device is constructed in HostInputCameraCompositionPhase
immediately after the frame-flight controller (the same phase that
already builds GpuFrameFlightController), rather than in
WorldRenderCompositionPhase as first considered: GlGpuDevice's self-
contained bindless detection means it has no ordering dependency on
the legacy WB path's BindlessSupport, so it can be proven against the
real driver as early as possible while keeping the composition change
to one phase. Composition, publication, and shutdown wiring follow
the existing acquire/publish/fault-injection pattern exactly, and GPU
device disposal is scheduled through the frame-flight retirement queue
before that queue itself is torn down. Nothing consumes the device
yet - that starts at V4a - so this slice's pixel gate is trivially a
tripwire.

App tests: 3834 passed / 3 skipped (V0 baseline 3785 + 49 new: ring,
texture-slot, render-state, push-constant, format-mapping, enum-
mapping, and timer-pool tests, plus one new fault-injection point in
the existing composition theory).

ce41efb9e5 refactor(runtime): cut graphical host over to canonical root
Make every App composition phase borrow one GameRuntime, retire the duplicate view/event adapters, and dispose the root only after its graphical borrowers release. This preserves synchronous UI commands while giving shutdown one exact ownership ledger.

7e6033d0ad refactor(runtime): own per-session physics simulation
Move the sole PhysicsEngine, production cache, collision admissions, canonical bodies and hosts, remote components, ordinary/remote worksets, simulation, cell commits, and shadow synchronization under RuntimeEntityObjectLifetime. Keep App as the prepared-asset, animation-input, and render-projection adapter while preserving the named-retail update and collision order.

Add exact-incarnation, object-clock, callback-reentrancy, GUID-reuse, two-runtime isolation, source ownership, collision publication, and graphical projection coverage. Release build and the complete 8,588-test solution pass.

aa3f4a60f8 refactor(runtime): own local movement and outbound cadence
Move the canonical local movement controller, body/motion managers, object clock, movement wire data, and MTS/jump/AP sender into AcDream.Runtime. Replace process skill defaults with typed Runtime character options, make graphical and direct commands borrow one autorun owner, retain the construction-time PartArray seam, and include movement in terminal ownership convergence.

Preserve the accepted pre-inbound movement/jump and post-inbound autonomous-position order while moving the exact packet/cadence fixtures into Runtime tests. Add graphical/direct parity, two-instance isolation, teardown, allocation, architecture, and divergence-path coverage.
