55e454aedc fix(headless): S1 ACDREAM_HEADLESS_CONSOLE=0 disables even on a real terminal
HeadlessConsoleOptions.Resolve tested the environment variable against
the literal "1", so ACDREAM_HEADLESS_CONSOLE=0 silently fell through to
the terminal-shaped default (on when stdin is a real console) instead of
acting as an A/B off-switch. Now: once the variable is SET AT ALL, any
value other than "0" enables and "0" disables -- the same idiom
ACDREAM_RETAIL_CLOSE_DEGRADES / ACDREAM_RETAIL_UI already use. An unset
variable still falls through to the terminal default.

Registered the flag as the sixth entry in
LaunchOptionsDocumentationTests.DefaultOnBehaviorFlags and updated the
Conventions section of docs/launch-options.md plus the flag's own row
(side-effects column corrected to describe the real precedence).

ResolvePrefersFlagThenEnvironmentThenTerminalDefault's env="0"/terminal
=true case was shown to fail against the prior `== "1"` implementation
(expected false, old code returned true) before the fix landed; the
env="yes" case also failed on the same mutation (old code required the
literal "1", so "yes" fell through to terminal=false instead of enabling).

c01ae15825 fix(headless): N3 reject --console for validate mode instead of ignoring it
validate never starts a session, so a silently-ignored --console read as
"it worked" to an operator who typo'd their command. Reject with a clear
message instead.

New test ValidateModeRejectsTheConsoleFlag was shown to fail first
(mutation: the guard absent — HeadlessCommandLine.Parse returned normally
for `validate --config bot.json --console` instead of throwing).

215442dc1d refactor(headless): N2 rename HeadlessCommandLine.Console to ConsoleEnabled
"Console" read as if it might mean System.Console; ConsoleEnabled says
what the flag actually gates. Pure rename, no behavior change.

4d5da2dcd5 test(headless): cover the interactive console
20 focused tests, no live server: typed-option resolution and
--console flag parsing; the reader-thread ordering guarantee (lines
queued by the background thread drain, in FIFO order, entirely on the
calling thread); the controller's drain/quit/status behavior; the
console chat formatter's per-kind bracket labels; and the full
dispatch pipeline against a real HeadlessSessionHost wired to a
no-network FixtureSessionOperations fixture (mirrors the existing
HeadlessSessionHostTests pattern used for LoginCommandSequence):
/say and plain text both produce the identical outbound Talk action a
graphical /say would send, a registered plugin verb is reached without
touching the wire, and an unknown/degenerate verb produces the same
interface text ChatCommandRouterTests already pins for the graphical
route.

Every test in this file was run against a deliberate one-line mutation
of its own production code first and confirmed red before being
reverted: HeadlessConsoleChatFeedback dropping its interface-text
callback, HeadlessConsoleController skipping
_quitRequested.Cancel(), LiveChatCommandRoute.TryHandlePluginCommand
forced to always return false, HeadlessConsoleInputReader's read loop
dropping its Enqueue call, and SubmitConsoleLine's ChatChannelKind.Say
swapped for .Tell.

dotnet test tests/AcDream.Headless.Tests -c Release: 193 passed, 1
pre-existing failure (LinuxRejectsGroupOrOtherCredentialPermissions -
Linux-only lane, cannot run on this Windows host, unrelated), 194
total. dotnet test tests/AcDream.Runtime.Tests -c Release: 1891/1891.

f680bf234a merge(vt): slice 1 Part A — VTank .usd/.utl drop-in and metaf .af for metas and routes (review-closed)
Campaign VT slice 1 Part A: the .usd document model + 137-setting
serializer with declared type tags and exact compare, metaf .af reader/
writer for metas and nav routes with real byte identity against the
owner's fixtures, .utl gate fixes, the VtankProfiles host storage
(ACDREAM_VTANK_PROFILE_DIR), and the cutover of all four profile stores
to real VTank files with one-time JSON migration. Two Opus lenses, three
fix rounds, two narrow re-reviews, final re-check: MERGE-READY.
Contract-doc ledger conflict resolved by keeping the campaign branch.

f58e997b19 fix(vt): round 3 item 12 — cleanup pass (stale refs, silent swallows, comments)
Five small fixes bundled per the round's cleanup item:
- VtankNavRouteSerializer.cs's doc comment cited a "WriteBinaryNavBlob"
  method that no longer exists anywhere in the codebase (MetaEngine's
  embedded-navigation contract moved to the typed MetaAction.EmbeddedRoute
  NavigationSettings, saved/loaded through MetafSerializer.SaveNav/
  TryLoadNav, back at round 2 step B) — corrected to name the real
  mechanism.
- MossTankCommands.cs:274's comment referenced an "exports/nav/" mirror
  directory that stopped existing when route profiles cut over to writing
  their real .af file directly (round 2 steps 2-3) — corrected.
- docs/research/vtank-kb/07-meta-and-expressions.md section 5.2 row 6
  described the pre-cutover "MossTankMetaProfileStore.WriteLegacyExport
  convenience mirror" design; .af is now the SOLE authoritative Meta
  store, so a disabled rule's save refusal now blocks the profile itself
  — the row now says a disabled rule makes the profile file genuinely
  unsaveable, not that a mirror goes stale.
- The two bare `catch (FormatException) { }` blocks that silently dropped
  a corrupt monster-rule expression (one in SideCarDocument.Apply, reached
  from a corrupt side-car; one in LegacyCombatProfileDocument.Apply,
  reached during legacy-JSON migration) now log a warning via the host's
  IPluginLogger, threaded through as an optional parameter from every call
  site.
- VtankDatabase.Render()'s table-sort doc comment now states explicitly
  that StringComparer.Ordinal matching .NET Framework's SortedDictionary
  default order is confirmed only for the plain-ASCII table names VTank
  ships (AntiExtraBuffSpells, MyMonsters, Settings, …), not as a general
  claim for any string — comment only, no behavior change.

Added CorruptSideCarMonsterRuleIsLoggedNotSilentlySwallowed (FakeLogger
now captures Warn() calls via a new FakeHost.Logger property) pinning the
swallow-to-log fix.

Mutation: reverted MossTankProfileStore.cs to HEAD (keeping only the new
test) and ran it — failed with an empty Warnings collection, confirming
the silent-swallow bug before the fix.

fbb584436b feat(vt): round 3 item 10 — Delete action for Meta/Route/Loot profiles
Round 2 step 5 gave the settings Profiles tab a Delete action; Meta, Route,
and Loot never got the same verb. Added MossTankMetaProfileStore.Delete,
MossTankRouteProfileStore.Delete, and MossTankLootProfileStore.Delete
(same contract as Settings: remove the selected named profile's real file,
fall back to By char; refuse for By char itself, which has nothing to
delete — see each store's ClearCurrent for that case), wired through
MossTankPanel.DeleteMetaProfile/DeleteRouteProfile/DeleteLootProfile to
three new "Delete" buttons in mosstank.xml (Route tab row, the Meta tab's
button row, and the Loot rule editor's button row).

MossTankMarkupContractTests' interactive-control count moves 191 -> 194
for the three new buttons.

Mutation: reverted all four .cs files and mosstank.xml to HEAD (keeping
only the new/changed tests) — the test project failed to even COMPILE
(DeleteRouteProfile/DeleteMetaProfile/DeleteLootProfile do not exist on
MossTankPanel), confirming the six new behavioral tests
(DeleteRouteProfile/DeleteMetaProfile/DeleteLootProfile, each with a
successful-delete and a refuse-by-char case) and the markup-count update
all depend on this commit's code.

43482c1380 feat(vt): round 3 item 9 — loot cutover to real .utl (consistency with the other three)
MossTankLootProfileStore now reads/writes real .utl files through
VtankLootProfileSerializer.TryRead/Write in the VtankProfiles storage,
matching the Settings/.usd, Route/.af, and Meta/.af cutovers already
landed: directory-backed listing (new VtankProfileDirectory.ListLootProfiles,
*.utl, "--" hidden rule), .cdf participation (LootFileName, already present
in VtankCharacterBinding but never populated by this store), and a one-time
JSON migration (SweepLegacyRosterIfNeeded) that converts BOTH this
character's own "By char" document and every other named profile the
pre-cutover roster still lists — unlike Meta/Route (whose rosters were
already abandoned pre-round-2), loot's roster was still the LIVE mechanism
right up to this commit, so there is no separate "selected vs the rest"
split the way Settings/Meta/Route each have. WriteLegacyExport is deleted;
exports/ has no remaining loot writer.

Found and fixed a real representational-loss bug the cutover would
otherwise have introduced: VtankLootProfileSerializer.ExportRequirements
replaces an empty VtankRequirements list with a "safely disabled"
VTClassic placeholder requirement — correct when .utl was only ever a
courtesy export mirror alongside the authoritative JSON store, but
silently destructive once .utl becomes the SOLE store, since every
MossTank-authored rule's Expression text would be permanently discarded on
its first save/reload cycle. Added a MossTank-owned length-delimited
"MossTankRuleExpressions" block (using the serializer's own existing
UnknownBlocks round-trip contract — a real VTClassic reader just ignores it
as an unrecognized block, the same as any other extension) that restores
each affected rule's exact Expression text on load.

Filed AD-123: MossTank's own ByCharacter auto-.utl-file convention for loot
(kept for consistency with the other three stores) versus retail's real
loot picker, which seeds only [None] and has no per-character auto file at
all (docs/research/vtank-kb/01-settings-and-profiles.md section 3).

Updated four pre-existing tests for the new storage shape/behavior:
ProfileGiveControllerTests' FakeHost now wires VtankProfiles (the loot
store no longer uses Storage at all); LootProfilesAreIndependentNamedDocuments
and LootCommandsImportAndExportExactVtclassicUtlFiles now assert against
the real file/no-exports-mirror shape instead of the deleted hashed-JSON/
exports-mirror one. Added LootRosterSweepConvertsByCharacterAndEveryNamedLegacyProfileOnce
pinning the migration + its idempotence.

Mutation: reverted MossTankLootProfileStore.cs/VtankProfileDirectory.cs to
HEAD (keeping only the new/changed tests) and ran the three
cutover-dependent tests — all three failed (no real .utl file, no
ListLootProfiles, exports/ mirror still expected) — confirming they
exercise the bug/gap before the fix. LootingUsesVtankDefaultsAndPersistsTheOrderedRuleEditor
(pre-existing, unchanged) independently caught the representational-loss
bug during development before the MossTankRuleExpressions block was added.

2566dad1d3 test(vt): round 3 item 8 — nav byte-identity coverage + s-cell strip + .ast round-trip
The already-committed nav_briennecarlus.af/nav_empyrean.af/nav_lockandkeyjaw.af
fixtures (checkpoint/recall/portal2 node coverage, clean metaf headers)
were exercised by the model-equality proofs (parse, parse-write-parse,
binary-import-matches-af) but never by the REAL byte-identical writer-output
theory, which only ever covered nav_ab.af. Converted
WriterOutputMatchesMetafCanonicalEmissionNavOnly into a Theory over all
four nav-only fixtures.

Added two more coverage gaps this round's audit named:
- StringCellStripsEmbeddedNewlineAtConstructionNotJustOnWrite pins
  VtankCell.String's gy.cs:84 newline strip (construction-time, not just
  at WriteTo).
- RealAstFixturesRoundTripByteIdentical extends the existing schema-only
  owner-{a,b,c}.ast coverage to a real parse -> Render() byte-identity
  round trip, the same proof-4 rigor MetafSerializerTests already applies
  to .af fixtures.

No writer bug surfaced in the extended nav theory or the .ast round trip —
both already passed; these are coverage-closing additions, not fixes.
Verified each new test has teeth via a temporary synthetic mutation rather
than a real revert (there is no production fix to revert here): the
string-cell test was checked against a temporarily-unstripped VtankCell.String
(failed, restored), and the .ast round-trip was checked against a
temporarily LF-only VtankWriter.AppendLine (all three .ast cases failed,
the four nav cases were unaffected since MetafSerializer's .af writer is a
separate code path from VtankUsdDocument's "y" grammar writer — restored).

cc5b71a478 fix(vt): round 3 item 6 — SetOptionInAll parity with bk.a + retail message/failure text
bk.a (refs/vtank/decompiled/bk.cs:6-35) appends a brand-new Settings row
([0]=name, [1]=value, every other column a void gy() cell) when a .usd
file's Settings table has no row for that name at all, and reports
"Done saving setting X to all profiles. (Changed N profiles)" with N =
every .usd file scanned. MossTankProfileStore.SetOptionInAll instead
silently skipped any file missing the row, and MossTankPanel's message
("Set option X in N profile(s) = value") matched neither retail text nor
count semantics.

Fixed SetOptionInAll to append (VtankCell { Tag = "0" } for every column,
then overwrite [nameColumn]/[valueColumn]) and to return the total scanned
file count instead of a per-row "changed" tally; changed the setinall
success message to retail's exact text.

Also added real type validation to /vt opt set|setinall: TryParseOptionValue
now takes the catalog's declared VtankSettingValueType and fails with
retail's exact "Option set: Invalid value specified. Proper type of X is
Y." text (refs/vtank/decompiled/uTank2/PluginCore.cs:5501,5508,5612) when
the typed value doesn't parse as that type — previously any non-empty
string silently succeeded regardless of the option's real type. The
Advanced Options editor keeps the original lax free-form parse (no
catalog type to check against there).

Mutation: reverted MossTankProfileStore.cs/MossTankCommands.cs to HEAD
(keeping only the new tests) and ran all four new/changed tests — all
four failed (old "Set option..." message text, no append, no type
validation) — confirming they exercise the bug before the fix.

7aee57fa22 fix(vt): round 3 item 5 — jump-charge ceiling moves from storage load to execution
Retail's real 2000 ms jump-charge ceiling (refs/vtank/decompiled/bi.cs:502-505,
bi.a) is enforced at the moment a jump STARTS charging, not by the storage
format — metaf's own NJump (metaf_monolithic.py:11708-11820) and VTank's
.nav both round-trip the authored value unclamped. The prior slice-1 port
misread this as a LOAD-time clamp: MetafSerializer's .af "jmp" parser and
the legacy-JSON route migration both clamped JumpChargeMilliseconds on
read, silently rewriting an authored 5000 ms waypoint down to 2000 ms even
when the route is never executed.

Removed both load-time clamps; NavigationController.TickJump now clamps
the EFFECTIVE charge duration (Math.Clamp(..., 0, 2000)) only at the one
place retail actually enforces it — the charge-hold comparison during
execution — leaving the stored/authored value untouched.

Renamed MetafSerializerTests.JumpNodeClampsChargeMillisecondsTo2000 to
JumpNodeLoadPreservesAuthoredChargeMillisecondsAboveRetailCeiling (now
asserts the 5000 ms value survives the .af load) and added a save+load
round-trip test and a Navigation execution test asserting the jump
releases at ~2000 ms of in-game charging despite a 5000 ms authored value.

Mutation: reverted MetafSerializer.cs/MossTankRouteProfileStore.cs/
Navigation.cs to HEAD (keeping only the new/changed tests) and ran the
three new/renamed tests — all three failed (load clamped to 2000,
execution never released before 5000 ms) — confirming they exercise the
bug before the fix.

0398913538 fix(vt): round 3 items 3-4 — hidden-prefix-first nav naming + disjoint pickers
Item 3: MossTankRouteProfileStore's per-character auto route file was named
nav_--Name_Server.af (NavPrefix + AutoCharacterFileName) — the "nav_" marker
came BEFORE the "--" hidden prefix, so the whole filename does not start
with "--" and defeats every StartsWith("--") hidden-file check in
VtankProfileDirectory, leaking another character's private route binding
into both the nav and meta pickers. Chose hidden-prefix-first naming
(--nav_Name_Server.af, matching VTank's own "--" convention with the nav_
kind marker second) via a new AutoCharacterFileName(name, server, ext,
marker) overload; applied only to the per-character auto file — named
routes keep their existing nav_Name.af (shared/visible) shape.

Item 4: ListNavigationProfiles and ListMetaProfiles shared the same flat
.af directory with no marker check at all, so each picker returned the
other's files too (a Meta profile appeared in the nav picker and vice
versa). ListNavigationProfiles now requires the nav_ marker;
ListMetaProfiles now excludes it.

Mutation: reverted VtankProfileDirectory.cs and MossTankRouteProfileStore.cs
to HEAD (keeping only the new/changed tests) — the build failed outright
(VtankProfileDirectory has no NavMarker/marker-overload for the new tests to
call), and the two pre-existing tests this round updated
(ListNavigationProfilesFiltersBothReservedPrefixes,
RouteStoreLeavesLegacyJsonUntouchedWhenAfCounterpartExists) independently
failed at runtime against their OLD un-marked/mis-ordered fixtures once
this round's marker/ordering requirement was pinned, confirming both are
exercising real, fixed behavior.

145bd62503 fix(vt): round 3 item 2 — sweep the whole legacy profile roster, not just the selected one
The pre-cutover roster documents (profiles/{index,meta/index,route/index}.json)
carried EVERY named profile a character had, but each store's cutover only
ever converted the ONE currently-selected profile (MigrateLegacyIfNeeded) —
every other named profile was silently orphaned: never converted to the new
.usd/.af format, never listed again. Worse, MossTankProfileStore actively
reused "profiles/index.json" for a MineOnly-only shape, so the very next
SetMineOnly() save would have permanently discarded the roster.

Added a one-time SweepLegacyRosterIfNeeded() to all three stores
(settings/meta/route), guarded by a per-instance flag so repeat LoadCurrent
calls are a no-op:
- Settings: entries owned by the currently-bound character convert to their
  real per-(character,server) sub-profile .usd + side-car; entries owned by
  a different character are written back to the roster for that character's
  own future session. MineOnly now lives at a NEW dedicated key
  (profiles/macro/preferences.json) so the old roster key is never again
  flattened/overwritten.
- Meta/route: named profiles were never owner-scoped (one shared, globally-
  hashed key per name), so every roster entry converts unconditionally.

Mutation: reverted all three store .cs files to HEAD (keeping only the new
tests) and ran SettingsRosterSweepConvertsEveryNamedLegacyProfileOnce,
MetaRosterSweepConvertsEveryNamedLegacyProfileOnce, and
RouteRosterSweepConvertsEveryNamedLegacyProfileOnce — all three failed
(missing converted .usd/.af files) — confirming the tests exercise the bug
before the fix.

b6d642c9b7 fix(vt): round 3 item 1 — drop-in .usd EnableLooting no longer clobbered
MossTankProfileStore's SideCarDocument.InventoryEnableLooting duplicated
the real "EnableLooting" .usd Settings row, and the side-car's own Apply()
ran AFTER the .usd was applied in LoadCurrent — so a drop-in profile with
looting on loaded with it silently off, clobbered by whatever the side-car
happened to hold (default false for a profile with no side-car at all).

Deleted the duplicate field; settings.Inventory.Loot.Enabled is now owned
exclusively by the .usd row. Added a reflection test proving no SideCarDocument
field (typed or with its Combat/Buff/Vitals/Inventory group prefix stripped)
collides with a VtankOptionCatalog name, and a drop-in regression test:
a real .usd fixture with EnableLooting=True and NO side-car now loads with
panel.LootEnabled == true.

Mutation: reverted MossTankProfileStore.cs to HEAD (keeping only the new
tests) and ran both new tests — SideCarDocumentHasNoFieldNamedForARealVtankSetting
failed with `["InventoryEnableLooting"]`, DropInUsdWithLootingEnabledAndNoSideCarLoadsLootingEnabled
failed with Expected True/Actual False — confirming both tests exercise the bug
before the fix.

8a146aa8c4 feat(vt): Profiles tab Delete action, bound through the markup contract
Campaign VT slice 1 Part A round 2 step 5: the Profiles tab's action set
(Create/Select/Save/Delete/name field/mine-only) was missing Delete
entirely — every profile family only ever had Create/Copy/Clear. Adds
MossTankProfileStore.Delete (removes the selected named profile's real
.usd file and its side-car, falls back to "By char"; refuses for "By
char" itself, which has nothing to delete — see ClearCurrent for that
case) and wires it through MossTankPanel.DeleteProfile to a new "Delete"
button in mosstank.xml, next to "Clear profile!".

Create/Select/the name field/the mine-only toggle already bind to the
directory-backed store from steps 1-4; this closes the one missing verb.

Mutation shown to fail: Delete short-circuited to always refuse made
DeleteProfileRemovesTheRealFileAndFallsBackToByCharacter fail (selection
stayed on the named file instead of falling back); restored, it passes
along with the By-char refusal companion test. The markup contract's
interactive-control count was updated for the new button (190 -> 191).

595 MossTank tests passing (was 593).

e5c4912b6d test(vt): pin the route store's legacy-JSON migration (round 2 step 4)
Adds the same migrate-and-delete / counterpart-already-exists coverage
for MossTankRouteProfileStore that Settings and Meta already had,
completing step 4's "pin with a test per store" requirement. Also
corrects an assumption in the route store's own waypoint model: metaf's
"pnt" node format is bare x/y/z (three doubles, MetafSerializer.cs:217)
with no cell id at all for any waypoint type, not just "jmp" — so the
migration test checks EastWest/NorthSouth instead of CellId.

Mutation shown to fail: MossTankRouteProfileStore.MigrateLegacyIfNeeded
short-circuited to a no-op made RouteStoreMigratesLegacyJsonProfileToAfAndDeletesTheJsonKey
fail (LoadCurrent returned false, nothing to load); restored, it passes
along with the companion counterpart-exists test.

a5d52bfb07 feat(vt): metas and routes cut over to real .af files (round 2 steps 2-3)
MossTankMetaProfileStore and MossTankRouteProfileStore now store their
profiles as real .af files through IPluginHost.VtankProfiles, named and
listed by VtankProfileDirectory's rules, instead of a hashed JSON
document plus a stale "exports/" mirror (WriteLegacyExport deleted from
both). Named Meta profiles are plain shared files (matching VTank's own
ac() picker, which has no per-character sub-profile carve-out); named
route profiles carry a "nav_" prefix (metaf's own observed convention
for a stand-alone nav .af, confirmed against the committed nav_*.af
fixtures) so a route and a Meta profile sharing a user-typed name never
collide in the shared VtankProfiles directory. Both stores' Selected/
AvailableNames strip the file extension (and the route store's "nav_"
prefix) for display, matching the bare names users type at /vt meta|nav.

The route store now persists only the fields metaf's NAV: grammar
actually carries (Mode, Waypoints, FollowTarget) — Enabled/Priority/
MinimumDistanceMeters/FollowAroundCorners/OpenDoors/Door* are real VTank
Settings-table rows already owned end-to-end by MossTankProfileStore's
.usd profile (round 2 step 1), matching real VTank's own split between
global nav prefs and the per-route file; ClearCurrent and LoadCurrent
were narrowed to match. LoadCurrent gained an ISpellCatalog parameter
(TryLoadNav's own requirement); both call sites now pass
host.Automation.Spells.

Both stores gained the same one-time legacy-JSON migration as the
Settings store: first load converts a not-yet-migrated JSON profile to
.af and deletes the JSON key, leaving an existing .af counterpart (and
its stale JSON) untouched. The Meta store's SaveCurrent/Create now
refuse (return false, set SaveNotice, leave the prior .af content in
place) rather than silently drop a disabled rule that metaf/.af cannot
represent — MossTankPanel's four rule-editing call sites were updated to
prefer that refusal notice over their own generic success message.

Mutations shown to fail: MossTankMetaProfileStore.MigrateLegacyIfNeeded
stubbed to a no-op made MetaStoreMigratesLegacyJsonProfileToAfAndDeletesTheJsonKey
fail (legacy key was not deleted); SaveCurrent's SaveMeta call switched to
dropDisabledRules:true made MetaStoreRefusesToSaveADisabledRuleAndKeepsThePriorAfContent
fail (the disabled rule was silently written). Both restored and green.

NavigationTests.RouteProfilesRoundTripEveryWaypointField (asserting the
pre-cutover JSON-carries-everything behavior) was split into
RouteProfilesRoundTripWaypointFieldsButLeaveSettingsOwnedFieldsAlone and
FollowModeRouteRoundTripsTheFollowTargetThroughAf, and now also
documents two pre-existing, already-recorded metaf representational
gaps discovered by routing this path through .af for the first time:
JumpDirection has no .af representation at all (MetafSerializer.cs:924)
and a "jmp" node carries no cell id (six bare fields, no hex component).
MossTankPanelTests' nav/meta export-path tests were updated from the
retired "exports/meta|nav/" mirror to the real file locations.

591 MossTank tests passing (was 588 after step 1's commit, +3 new tests
net of the two renamed/retired ones).

479495ecc6 feat(vt): settings profiles cut over to real .usd files (round 2 step 1)
MossTankProfileStore now stores the VTank-catalog Settings (Combat/Buffs/
Vitals/Inventory/Navigation) as a real .usd database read/written through
VtankSettingsProfileSerializer, listed via VtankProfileDirectory's real
naming rules (auto "By char" file, "--Name_Server_" sub-profiles, .cdf
per-character binding) instead of a hashed JSON document. Only state with
no VTank setting name (item/consumable lists, the monster-rule table, and
a handful of MossTank-only knobs) still lives in a small JSON side-car
keyed by the real .usd file name.

A one-time migration converts a not-yet-migrated legacy JSON profile into
its .usd + side-car pair on first load and deletes the JSON key, leaving
an existing .usd counterpart (and its stale JSON) untouched. `opt setinall`
now patches every known .usd file's Settings row directly, keeping each
file's side-car DynamicSettings mirror in sync so MossTankPanel's existing
option-override replay doesn't clobber the freshly patched value on the
next load.

VtankProfileDirectory gained WriteCharacterBinding (the .cdf writer
counterpart to the existing reader). VtankSettingsProfileSerializer.Apply
is now internal so the store can seed live settings directly from a
parsed database without a text round-trip.

Mutation shown to fail: MigrateLegacyIfNeeded stubbed to a no-op made
FirstLoadMigratesLegacyJsonMacroProfileToUsdAndDeletesTheJsonKey fail
(legacy key was not deleted); restored, it passes along with the
ExistingUsdCounterpartLeavesLegacyJsonUntouchedAndUnread companion test.

585 -> 587 MossTank tests passing (net +2 after adjusting three existing
tests to the new, more retail-faithful defaults/identity: a brand-new
profile now seeds from VTank's own shipped defaultsettings.usd rather
than a MossTank-guessed CLR default, and Selected/MacroProfileNames now
surface the real VTank file name instead of a bare invented name).

d631cc4fe6 fix(vt): J five nits — argument order, sort order, dedup key readers
Item J (slice-1 fix round), five sub-parts (item 12's sixth, the
VtankCellBuilder/VtankCellFactory note, required no change — both are
genuinely in use):

1. MobsInDist_Priority's regex-table entry gained an argument-order
   comment (count, distance, priority — cross-referenced against Meta.cs's
   runtime evaluation, CountMonstersByPriority(priority, distance) >=
   count) plus a new synthesized round-trip test
   (MobsInDistPriorityRoundTripsAllThreeNumbersDistinctly): this condition
   is never exercised by any committed real fixture (only its name
   appears, in the auto-completion header banner text), so nothing
   previously caught an accidental swap of any two of its three numeric
   fields.

2. VtankDatabase.Render() now explicitly sorts tables by name
   (StringComparer.Ordinal) before writing — VTank's own `y` class holds
   tables in a SortedDictionary, so a real .usd/.ast always emits
   table-name order. This port's own Tables is an insertion-ordered list,
   so every committed fixture happened to round-trip in order today
   purely because it was already sorted the last time real VTank wrote it
   (confirmed: defaultsettings.usd's own first five tables are already
   alphabetical). New RenderEmitsTablesInNameOrderRegardlessOfInsertionOrder
   adds three tables in deliberately reversed order to prove the sort,
   not just re-check an already-sorted fixture.

3. SaveMeta's NAV: block write order now comes from a List<(MetaAction,
   string)> populated in AssignEmbedTags's own traversal order, not
   Dictionary<MetaAction,string> enumeration — Dictionary enumeration
   order happens to match insertion order in the current runtime absent
   removals, but that is an implementation detail, never a documented BCL
   contract. embedTags stays a Dictionary purely for WriteAction's O(1)
   lookup; embedOrder is the sole source of write order.

4. "/vt nav save Foo.af" and "/vt meta save Foo.af" used to keep the
   ".af" suffix (only ".nav"/".met" were stripped from the argument),
   producing a doubled "exports/nav/Foo.af.af" / "exports/meta/Foo.af.af"
   export instead of "exports/nav/Foo.af" / "exports/meta/Foo.af" — .af
   is the only VTank-compatible storage format now, so both commands
   strip it too. NavCommandsImportAndExportExactVtankNavFiles/
   MetaCommandsImportAndExportExactVtankMetFiles renamed to
   NavCommandsImportLegacyAndExportAf/MetaCommandsImportLegacyAndExportAf
   (the writer is real metaf output now, not a byte-exact pass-through of
   the imported .nav/.met, so the old names overstated what they prove);
   new NavSaveAcceptsAnAfSuffixedNameWithoutDoublingIt/
   MetaSaveAcceptsAnAfSuffixedNameWithoutDoublingIt pin the fix.

5. VtankLootRequirementEvaluator's IntKeyExists/DoubleKeyExists were each
   an independently hand-maintained duplicate of IntValue/DoubleValue's
   own named-field key list — a key added to one switch and forgotten in
   the other would silently make BuffedInt/BuffedDouble's KeyExists gate
   treat a real, always-present field as "raw property bag only". New
   TryIntValue/TryDoubleValue are the single source of truth for both
   "what is this key's value" and "does it exist at all"; IntValue/
   DoubleValue and IntKeyExists/DoubleKeyExists are now both thin wrappers
   over them. The two double-side "virtual field" keys (VtankDoubleBase+12/+14,
   which always exist regardless of whether their remapped raw key is
   present) needed an explicit comment to preserve that exact semantic
   through the consolidation.

Full MossTank suite: 583 -> 585 (2 new tests from item 4; items 1-3 and 5
added/renamed tests without net new count beyond that). App.Tests
(Plugin|LaunchOptions filter): 84/84.

8fd3999616 fix(vt): I widen tDouble-declared distance fields from float to double
Item I (slice-1 fix round, finishing item 1). CaptureMatchesDeclaredSettingTypeAndValue's
~1.5e-7 float-round-trip tolerance was masking a real cause, not a real
value change: every tDouble-declared distance setting whose live field
was actually a float (CombatSettings.MaximumRange/MinimumRange/
ApproachDistance/RingDistance/ArcRange/TargetSelectAngleRange/
PetCustomRange/CollisionProjectileRadius/CollisionStepDistance/
SpellRangeFudge, Looting.CorpseApproachRange/CorpseMinimumApproachRange,
VitalPlan.HelperHealthDistance/HelperStaminaDistance/HelperManaDistance)
lost precision below float's ~7-significant-digit guarantee on every
load, since a loaded .usd's real value is a double.

- All 15 fields widened from float to double, matching their declared
  tDouble type. Every physics/combat call site that genuinely needs a
  float (IProjectileAutomation.EvaluatePath/EvaluatePathWithDiagnostics,
  ICombatAutomation.CaptureHostileTargets/CaptureCorpses, the
  fellow-distance Lowest() helper) now casts explicitly at that one use
  site (CombatController.cs, Looting.cs, VitalRecharge.cs,
  MossTankCommands.cs, PetAutomation.cs) instead of the field itself
  being narrowed everywhere it's stored.
- MossTankProfileStore's JSON DTOs (InventoryProfileDocument.
  CorpseApproachRange, CombatProfileDocument.MaximumRange/
  ApproachDistance/TargetSelectAngleRange/ArcRange/RingDistance/
  PetCustomRange) widened to match, so MossTank's own persisted profiles
  keep full precision too — their Apply()-side Math.Clamp calls needed no
  changes (the float literal bounds like 2f/100f already widen to the
  double overload implicitly).
- VtankSettingsProfileSerializer.Apply's `(float)(cell.AsDouble() * 240d)`
  casts and `cell.AsFloat()` calls for these 15 settings are now plain
  `cell.AsDouble()` / `cell.AsDouble() * 240d` — no narrowing at all.
- ValuesEqual's "d"/"f" branch dropped DoublesEqual/FloatRoundTripTolerance
  entirely: `a.AsDouble() == b.AsDouble()`, exact, matching every other
  tag. CaptureMatchesDeclaredSettingTypeAndValue's own test-side tolerance
  (a second, independently-tolerant comparison) removed the same way —
  all 135 catalog names now pass under Assert.Equal(exact) with zero
  special-casing.

Full MossTank suite: 581/581 (no count change — this is a precision fix,
not new coverage; CaptureMatchesDeclaredSettingTypeAndValue's own 135
cases already existed and now pass exactly instead of within tolerance).
App.Tests (Plugin|LaunchOptions filter): 84/84.

a3b4a8e2e5 fix(vt): H test-restoration + disabled-rule refusal + double-side gate
Item H (slice-1 fix round), six sub-parts:

1. Restored VtankMetaProfileSerializerTests.LoadsKnownTypedCondActRecord
   and SignedHighBitLandblockIdRoundTripsExactly (the latter adapted from
   the deleted RoundTripPreservesEveryVtankConditionActionAndEmbeddedNav's
   LandblockEquals/LandcellEquals coverage of unchecked((int)0x8B370000u)),
   both deleted as collateral damage of an unrelated file move in commit
   0d10399e0. Neither calls the deleted VtankMetaProfileSerializer.Save
   writer (demoted to import-only in 3ff9461ef) — both are pure reader
   assertions.

2. MetafSerializer.SaveMeta now refuses (throws InvalidOperationException
   naming the count) to silently drop a disabled MetaRule: real VTank/
   metaf has zero concept of "disabled" (confirmed: metaf_monolithic.py
   has no "enabled"/"disabled" occurrences anywhere), so
   MetaRule.Enabled is a MossTank-only extension with no metaf-compatible
   marker. A new SaveMeta(profile, dropDisabledRules: true) overload lets
   a caller accept the loss explicitly.
   MossTankMetaProfileStore.WriteLegacyExport (the .af convenience mirror
   beside MossTank's own fully-fidelity JSON storage) deliberately does
   NOT opt in — it leaves that mirror stale and logs a warning via its
   existing try/catch rather than losing the rule. Recorded as gap 6 in
   docs/research/vtank-kb/07-meta-and-expressions.md section 5.

3. New VtankProfilesDefault (src/AcDream.App/Plugins/): the graphical
   host's default VtankProfiles root (<DataDirectory>/vtank), extracted
   out of Program.cs's inline Path.Combine call into its own pure,
   injectable-root function specifically so the "Path.Combine only, never
   a hard-coded Windows path" guarantee is a real, failable Linux-path
   unit test (VtankProfilesDefaultTests.ResolveIsBuiltWithPathCombineOnly)
   rather than something only checkable by reading the source — the
   pattern item F's VtankProfileDirectory rewrite removed when
   Resolve/PortableDefault moved out of the plugin.

4. New BuffedDoubleRequirementDoesNotApplyBonusWhenBaseKeyIsAbsent: the
   KeyExistsDouble gate (ComputedItemInfo.cs:234) already existed in
   BuffedDouble, but only the int side
   (BuffedIntRequirementDoesNotApplyBonusWhenBaseKeyIsAbsent) had a
   pinning test.

5/6. DoubleSpellBonuses gained an explicit Change field (KB doc 05
   section 2.2: "additive unless the static table's Change==1, in which
   case multiplicative", ComputedItemInfo.cs:244), replacing
   BuffedDouble's prior `(int)bonus.Bonus == 1` magnitude-based proxy —
   that proxy only worked because every multiplicative bonus in the
   current 19 rows happens to fall in [1.0, 2.0) and every additive one
   happens to be under 1.0; it would have silently mis-branched on a
   future row like an additive 1.5 or a multiplicative 2.0+. Every
   existing row's Change value was derived mechanically from its old
   proxy result (no behavior change for the current table), and
   BuffedDoubleRequirementAppliesAdditiveBonusWhenBaseKeyExists/
   AppliesMultiplicativeBonusWhenChangeIsSet pin both branches through
   the real named field.

Full MossTank suite: 574 -> 581. App.Tests

e53507396f fix(vt): G real mineOnly predicate, .cdf character binding, .ast naming
Item G (slice-1 fix round).

- ListSettingsProfiles's "Mine only" filter previously hid EVERY shared
  (non-sub-profile) file when checked. Real VTank's predicate
  (uTank2/PluginCore.cs:7020-7024, cSettingsShowAll/field a9) is
  "!checked || file == current" — a shared file is hidden only when the
  box is checked AND it is not the file currently assigned to the
  character, so the profile actually in use never disappears out from
  under the user just because they ticked the box. New optional
  currentFileName parameter carries that exemption.
- New VtankProfileDirectory.CdfFileName/TryReadCharacterBinding: the
  real per-character binding file (da class, da.cs:15,105-164) —
  filename Server_CharacterName.cdf (Server-then-Name order), literal
  "uTank2 CDF 1.0" version-header line 1 (a mismatch is treated
  identically to a missing file, per da.cs:113-121, and the method
  returns null in both cases rather than fabricating a default binding),
  lines 2-4 the settings/loot/nav filenames currently assigned to that
  character, optional line 5 the meta filename (present only when the
  stream wasn't already at EOF — an older .cdf predating meta support
  has no line 5 at all). The legacy .uts->.usd settings-filename
  rewrite (da.cs:130-141) is applied here so callers never see a stale
  extension.
- New VtankProfileDirectory.AstFileName: the per-character spell-
  tracking cache name (dm class, dm.cs:391) — CharacterName_Server.ast,
  no "--" prefix, not user-selectable. Note the concatenation order is
  the REVERSE of CdfFileName's (Name-then-Server vs Server-then-Name) —
  both are pinned by dedicated tests so a future edit can't silently
  swap one for the other.
- New RealAstFixturesParseAsTheSpellsTable theory over the three
  committed owner-{a,b,c}.ast fixtures: parses via the existing
  VtankDatabase.Parse (same "y" grammar as .usd) and asserts the real
  Spells table's four columns (SpellID/EndTime/Target/CastTime), per
  live inspection of +Horan_sawato.ast recorded in
  docs/research/vtank-kb/01-settings-and-profiles.md section 3.

No production caller of these new members exists yet — same as item F,
this is contract/rule-implementation work per A2's "foundation only, not
yet wired into the profile stores" scope; wiring belongs to the store
cutover explicitly deferred to round 2.

Full MossTank suite: 562 -> 574 (12 new tests, no regressions). App.Tests
(Plugin|LaunchOptions filter): 82/82.

2040f2bcfb fix(vt): F host-composed VtankProfiles storage replaces raw path string
Item F (slice-1 fix round). IPluginHost.VtankProfileDirectory handed the
plugin a raw string path and told it to fall back to its own
System.IO-based portable default when null — a plugin reading and
resolving filesystem paths itself, which is exactly the seam the rest of
IPluginHost.Storage deliberately avoids (Core.Plugins.ScopedPluginHost
scopes/validates every key; the plugin never sees a path).

- IPluginHost: VtankProfileDirectory (string?) deleted; new VtankProfiles
  (IPluginStorage, defaults to NoOpPluginStorage) added — a second,
  UNSCOPED storage instance (unlike Storage, which Core scopes per
  plugin manifest id) rooted at a host-composed VTank-compatible
  directory.
- ScopedPluginHost.VtankProfiles forwards _inner.VtankProfiles directly
  (no scoping — it names one shared external location, not per-plugin
  data). New PluginSessionTests.ScopedHostForwardsVtankProfilesUnscoped
  proves the forwarded instance is the exact same object (Assert.Same),
  not a wrapper.
- AppPluginHost/Program.cs: new vtankProfiles constructor parameter,
  composed as FilePluginStorage(runtimeOptions.VtankProfileDirectoryOverride
  ?? Path.Combine(applicationPaths.DataDirectory, "vtank")).
- RuntimeOptions.VtankProfileDirectoryOverride: new init-only property
  parsed from ACDREAM_VTANK_PROFILE_DIR (row added to
  docs/launch-options.md, side-effects column states the redirect is the
  only effect and documents the NullIfEmpty whitespace-not-special-cased
  quirk it shares with every other path-override flag). New
  RuntimeOptionsTests.VtankProfileDirectoryOverrideIsNullUnlessSet.
- FilePluginStorage.List(prefix): empty prefix now means "the storage
  root itself" instead of throwing (Resolve() rejects empty/whitespace
  keys, which is correct for every OTHER caller but wrong for "list
  everything" — VtankProfileDirectory needs exactly that).
- Headless: HeadlessPluginHost gained the same VtankProfiles
  property/constructor param, threaded through HeadlessPluginSession.Create
  -> HeadlessSessionHost -> HeadlessProcessHost, composed from the new
  HeadlessPathSet.VtankProfilesDirectory (<DataDirectory>/vtank, no
  ACDREAM_VTANK_PROFILE_DIR-equivalent override — Headless path overrides
  are HeadlessPathOverrides/CLI flags, not env vars). A small
  AcDream.Headless.Plugins.FilePluginStorage duplicates the App
  implementation byte-for-byte (Headless does not reference AcDream.App
  and no shared "platform plugins" library exists yet to host one copy;
  documented as a reasonable future consolidation, not required here).
- VtankProfileDirectory.cs rewritten: Resolve/PortableDefault deleted
  outright (no more System.IO, no plugin-owned portable-default fallback);
  ListSettingsProfiles/ListNavigationProfiles/ListMetaProfiles now take
  IPluginStorage and enumerate through EnumerateFileNames, which calls
  storage.List(string.Empty) and skips any key containing '/' (VTank's
  profile directory is flat; a nested key from some other IPluginStorage
  implementation is not a profile file). VtankProfileDirectoryTests
  rewritten against an in-memory IPluginStorage fake instead of real
  temp directories; new NestedPathKeysAreNotTreatedAsProfileFiles pins
  that skip. The prior Resolve/PortableDefault-specific tests (Linux-path
  guarantee, host-override-vs-portable-default) are superseded by
  RuntimeOptionsTests.VtankProfileDirectoryOverrideIsNullUnlessSet plus
  the RuntimeOptions.FromEnvironment Path.Combine-only composition in
  Program.cs.
- docs/architecture/acdream-architecture.md: one sentence in the
  Storage/List(prefix) paragraph naming VtankProfiles as the second,
  unscoped storage.

No production caller of VtankProfileDirectory's listing methods exists
yet (A2's foundation is not wired into MossTankProfileStore/
MossTankMetaProfileStore/MossTankRouteProfileStore's own selection —
per that slice's own ledger note), so this is a contract + plumbing
change with no MossTank runtime behavior change.

MossTank suite: 562/562. Core.Tests (Plugin filter): 50/50. App.Tests
(Plugin|LaunchOptions|RuntimeOptions filter): 135/135. Headless.Tests:
173/174 (the one failure, HeadlessCredentialResolverTests.
LinuxRejectsGroupOrOtherCredentialPermissions, is a pre-existing
Linux-only lane gate that throws PlatformNotSupportedException on this
Windows host — unrelated to this change).

8de69b9741 fix(vt): E metaf header + STATE/NAV fold markers, real byte identity
Item E (slice-1 fix round). SaveMeta/SaveNav emitted no header at all
and no per-STATE/per-NAV editor-fold comment pair, so proof (4)
(byte-identity against metaf's own canonical emission) could only ever
pass after stripping every "~~" line — which hid that metaf's own
ExportToMetAF DOES mechanically emit both:

- OutputText.metaHeader/navHeader (metaf_monolithic.py:365-434): a fixed
  auto-completion-assistance banner, prepended to every meta/nav-only
  file respectively.
- State.ExportToMetAF / Nav.ExportToMetAF (py:12050-12054,12463-12467):
  every STATE:/NAV: block wrapped in "~~ {" ... "~~ }", unconditionally
  (including the single-node Target/follow NAV case).
- Meta.ExportToMetAF (py:12775-12794): when any NAV exists, a blank
  line, the exact separator
  "~~========================= ONLY NAVS APPEAR BELOW THIS LINE =========================~~"
  (no space beside either "~~"), and another blank line, before the
  first NAV: block.

Changes:
- MetafSerializer: MetaHeaderLines/NavOutputHeaderLines — the header
  text copied byte-for-byte from Fixtures/vtank/af/bella.af (meta) and
  nav_ab.af (nav-only) rather than retyped from the Python source, per
  the slice-1 contract. Joined with bare "\n" (matching metaf's own
  multi-line string constant, written as ONE f.line entry) plus a
  trailing "\n" — combined with this writer's own "\r\n" join separator,
  reproduces the single blank line real output has between the header
  and the first STATE:/NAV: line exactly.
- SaveMeta: prepends MetaHeader; wraps every STATE: block in "~~ {"/
  "~~ }"; emits the "ONLY NAVS APPEAR BELOW..." separator only when at
  least one embedded Nav tag exists.
- WriteNavBlock: wraps every NAV: block (both waypoint-list and
  Target/follow modes) in "~~ {"/"~~ }".
- SaveNav: prepends NavOutputHeader; writes the sole nav under tag
  "nav0" (matching metaf's Meta.GenerateUniqueNavTag counter starting at
  0 — every committed nav_*.af fixture's tag is literally "nav0";
  the prior tag "route" was a MossTank invention).

Proof (4) is now REAL byte identity (Assert.Equal(original, rewritten),
no comment stripping, no blank-line normalization) plus a new nav-only
case (WriterOutputMatchesMetafCanonicalEmissionNavOnly, against
nav_ab.af). Investigating the raw bytes of every candidate fixture
found real, PRE-EXISTING header divergence unrelated to this writer:
aphus.af/neftet.af/follower.af open "~~ {\r\n~~ " (CRLF) where a fresh
metaf conversion's header is bare-LF internally ("~~ {\n~~ ",
confirmed against augments.af/bella.af/gauntlet_leader.af/
empyrean_facility.af/example_sort_meta.af) — evidence of a re-save by
something other than metaf itself (e.g. a text editor normalizing every
line ending). hunting.af and lockandkey.af carry a wholly custom
hand-written banner instead of metaf's own. ByteIdenticalFixtureData is
narrowed to the five fixtures whose header IS metaf's fresh canonical
form (bella, gauntlet_leader, empyrean_facility, augments,
example_sort_meta — still five, per the slice-1 contract's floor);
aphus/neftet/hunting/follower/lockandkey keep exercising every other
proof (parse, parse-write-parse, and the ptl/tlk direct assertions from
the item-A fix) normally, with the header divergence documented at the
exclusion site rather than asserted away.

Three MossTankPanelTests assertions changed from StartsWith to Contains
("STATE: "/"NAV: ") since exported .af content is no longer the first
thing in the file.

Full MossTank suite: 570 -> 566 (5 fixtures dropped from the
byte-identity theory, replaced by 1 new nav-only fact: -4 net).

e1d0c703f9 fix(vt): D CreateNew seeds from VTank's real defaultsettings.usd
Item D (slice-1 fix round). CreateNew built ONLY a bespoke 4-column
Settings table (empty Description, hardcoded SettingType=1/Bool for
every row regardless of the setting's real declared type) and had no
representation of the other nine tables VTank ships at all (MyMonsters,
GemFoodItems, ExtraBuffSpells, AntiExtraBuffSpells, ItemUseSpecifiers,
SettingsCategories, SettingsEnumInfo, AssistItems, BuffedItems).
Separately, VitalSettings.RechargeHandlerRows defaulted to an empty
list, so a freshly-constructed VitalSettings (not loaded from a real
.usd) always fell back to VitalRechargePlanner's own hand-ported
handler-order switch instead of VTank's real 26-row table.

- VtankDefaultSettings.usd: the real uTank2.Resources.defaultsettings.usd
  (already committed as a test fixture) copied into the plugin project as
  an EmbeddedResource, following the existing VtankCraftRecipes.tsv/
  VtankAmmunitionOptions.tsv pattern.
- New VtankDefaultSettingsDatabase: loads the embedded text once (Lazy),
  exposes Parse() (a fresh, independently mutable VtankDatabase per call)
  and DefaultRechargeHandlerRows (the real RechargeHandlerSet table,
  parsed once via VtankSettingsProfileSerializer.ParseRechargeHandlerSet).
- VtankSettingsProfileSerializer.CreateNew now parses the embedded
  document and calls the existing Save(document, source) against it —
  every table, every row's real Description/SettingType survive
  untouched; only the Settings table's Value cells get overwritten from
  the live source, exactly as re-saving an existing profile would.
  DefaultCell (the hand-typed per-catalog-kind cell builder CreateNew
  used before) is deleted as dead code.
- VitalSettings.RechargeHandlerRows now defaults to
  VtankDefaultSettingsDatabase.DefaultRechargeHandlerRows instead of [].
  VitalRechargePlanner.Handlers' hardcoded switch-based defaults are kept
  (not deleted) as a documented, genuinely defensive fallback for the
  case where a caller explicitly clears the row list or an
  (vital, stance, percent) combination the real table happens not to
  cover — no longer the primary source of truth it used to be, and the
  doc comment says so.
- RenderRechargeHandlerSet (a write-back helper for the RechargeHandlerSet
  table, never called anywhere) is deleted rather than wired into
  Capture(): docs/research/vtank-kb/01-settings-and-profiles.md section 2
  row 137 confirms real VTank has NO save path for this table at all
  (tCustom has no case in the Advanced Options editor or "/vt opt set";
  it's owned by a dedicated cRechargeManager object). Wiring a write-back
  would be a MossTank invention, not a retail port, so Capture() keeps
  deliberately leaving this row untouched.

New CreateNewHasTheSameTableSetAsTheDefaultFixture test: asserts
CreateNew's table set matches defaultsettings.usd's own table set
exactly, and that Settings rows carry real (non-empty) Description and a
real (non-Bool-for-everything) SettingType. Verified failing against the
prior 4-column-only implementation (temporarily restored, ran, reverted):
"Expected: [AntiExtraBuffSpells, AssistItems, ...] / Actual: [Settings]".

d0247dbb19 fix(vt): C separate exports/meta/ and exports/nav/ .af directories
Item C (slice-1 fix round). MossTankMetaProfileStore and
MossTankRouteProfileStore both wrote their .af exports into the same
flat "exports/" directory keyed only by profile name — a Meta profile
and a route (Navigation) profile sharing a name (e.g. both named
"Same") would silently clobber each other's .af file on save, with no
error and no warning.

- MossTankMetaProfileStore.WriteLegacyExport now writes to
  "exports/meta/{name}.af".
- MossTankRouteProfileStore.WriteLegacyExport now writes to
  "exports/nav/{name}.af".
- Both class docs updated to name the collision this avoids and point at
  the sibling store's subdirectory.
- MossTankPanelTests: existing NavCommandsImportAndExportExactVtankNavFiles
  and MetaCommandsImportAndExportExactVtankMetFiles updated to the new
  paths. New MetaAndRouteExportsWithTheSameNameDoNotCollide saves a Meta
  and a route profile both named "Same" and asserts both .af files exist
  with their own correct content — verified failing before the fix
  (asserted false on the meta file's existence once both paths were
  reverted to the flat "exports/" root, confirming the collision is real
  and this test catches it).

e5bc5c6a3f fix(vt): B typed MetaAction.EmbeddedRoute replaces the binary nav blob
Item B (slice-1 fix round). A LoadEmbeddedNavigationRoute action carried
a synthesized "uTank2 NAV 1.2" TEXT blob in MetaAction.Text that both
MetaEngine and the runtime consumer (MossTankPanel) had to re-parse on
every load — an unnecessary re-parse of already-typed data, and the
reason proof (3)'s AssertActionsEqual skipped comparing embedded routes
entirely (the blob's exact byte shape wasn't a meaningful comparison
target).

- MetaAction: new EmbeddedRoute (NavigationSettings?) property replaces
  the blob. Null only for a genuinely unresolved/never-defined Nav tag.
- MetaServices.LoadEmbeddedNavigationRoute: Action<string> ->
  Action<NavigationSettings?>; MetaEngine's dispatch passes
  action.EmbeddedRoute directly.
- MetafSerializer.ResolveEmbeddedNavs (.af importer) builds the
  NavigationSettings directly via the existing ApplyNavBody helper
  (renamed SynthesizeNavBlob -> BuildNavSettings) instead of serializing
  it back into text. WriteBinaryNavBlob/WriteBinaryWaypoint/
  FormatBinaryDouble are deleted outright (the only caller was the
  now-removed blob synthesis).
- SaveMeta had its own now-dead re-parse of action.Text via
  VtankNavRouteSerializer.TryLoad to rebuild each embedded NAV: block on
  save; this silently started producing EMPTY NAV: blocks once Text
  stopped carrying the blob (Text is now always cleared for this action
  kind), caught immediately by the full suite: MetaParseWriteParseIsIdentical
  started failing "Expected: Once / Actual: Circular" (a re-parsed route
  falling back to NavigationSettings' default Mode because its NAV: block
  vanished). Fixed by writing straight from action.EmbeddedRoute.
- VtankMetaProfileSerializer (.met importer): TryLoad gained an
  ISpellCatalog overload (threaded through ReadAction/ReadEmbeddedNavigation);
  ReadEmbeddedNavigation now parses its reassembled blob text through
  VtankNavRouteSerializer.TryLoad into a real NavigationSettings instead
  of handing the raw text to the caller. The existing 2-arg TryLoad
  overload defers to MetafSerializer.NoOpSpells.Instance (promoted from
  private to internal) so both test call sites and MossTankMetaProfileStore
  (which now passes _host.Automation.Spells) keep working.
- VtankNavRouteSerializer.Apply promoted from private to internal so
  MossTankPanel.LoadEmbeddedNavigationRoute can copy an already-typed
  NavigationSettings into the live _navigationSettings instance directly,
  replacing its own VtankNavRouteSerializer.TryLoad(string, ...) re-parse.
- MetafSerializerTests: AssertActionsEqual now asserts
  EmbeddedRoute is non-null on both sides and calls AssertNavigationEqual
  on them (waypoint-by-waypoint) for LoadEmbeddedNavigationRoute actions,
  instead of skipping the comparison. PtlNodeKeepsBothCoordinateTriplesDistinct's
  FindNavWaypoint helper reads action.EmbeddedRoute directly instead of
  re-parsing action.Text (which is now empty).

Full MossTank suite: 568/568 passing (net zero change in count — this
is a representation change, not new coverage, though the AssertActionsEqual
tightening now exercises real waypoint comparisons on every fixture with
an EmbedNav action that it previously skipped).

0219c6e03d fix(vt): A ptl/tlk carry two coordinate triples, jmp direction loss recorded
Item A (slice-1 fix round). VTank/metaf's Portal2/UseNPC nav nodes carry
TWO coordinate triples (metaf_monolithic.py:356-357,11482,11618 —
"FORMAT: ptl/tlk myx myy myz tgtx tgty tgtz tgtObjectClass tgtName"): the
outer header ("myxyz", retail's own dead-weight last-save player position
per docs/research/vtank-kb/06-navigation-and-nav.md section 1.2) and the
embedded d-record ("tgtxyz", the real target coordinate used to match a
live world object by name+class+proximity). The prior port's
RouteWaypoint had a single Position field, so both the .af reader
(MetafSerializer.ReadNavNode) and the binary .nav reader
(VtankNavRouteSerializer.ReadWaypoint, case 6/7) overwrote "myxyz" with
"tgtxyz" on load, and the .af writer echoed the same Position value for
BOTH triples on save — a real .af round trip of the same waypoint was
lossy, which is why aphus/augments/lockandkey/neftet were excluded from
the byte-identity proof.

- RouteWaypoint: new ReferencePosition field (Position stays "myxyz",
  ReferencePosition is "tgtxyz"); included in Clone().
- MetafSerializer.ReadNavNode/RenderNavNode: ptl/tlk read/write both
  triples distinctly. WriteBinaryNavBlob's embedded-route writer (the
  MossTank runtime blob EmbedNav actions carry) fixed the same way — it
  was echoing Position for the reference triple too.
- VtankNavRouteSerializer.ReadWaypoint case 6/7: keep the header triple in
  Position, read the trailing triple into ReferencePosition instead of
  overwriting Position.
- Navigation.TickUse: TryFindObject now searches near ReferencePosition
  (the real target coordinate) instead of Position, preserving the
  correct runtime search behavior now that Position no longer aliases it.
- MossTankPanel.AddSelectedObjectWaypoint: new Portal2/UseNPC waypoints
  now set Position from the live snapshot (matching retail's own
  "wherever the character stood") and ReferencePosition from the selected
  object's live position (the real search anchor) — previously both were
  set from the object's position.
- MossTankRouteProfileStore's WaypointDocument DTO carries the reference
  triple too, so MossTank's own JSON-persisted routes round-trip it.
- MetafSerializerTests: un-excluded aphus/augments/lockandkey/neftet.af
  from the byte-identity proof (they all embed a ptl/tlk node and now
  round-trip correctly) and added example_sort_meta.af, which also
  passes. bore_quest.af was NOT added despite the slice-1 contract's
  ask: it is hand-edited the same way as the already-excluded
  bore_enhanced.af (space instead of tab between "IF:"/"DO:" and the
  following keyword, confirmed at bore_quest.af line 9 — metaf's own
  Rule.ExportToMetAF always joins with a tab, metaf_monolithic.py:12371),
  so it can never byte-match; documented alongside bore_enhanced's
  existing exclusion note instead. New PtlNodeKeepsBothCoordinateTriplesDistinct
  test pins the two-triple split directly (failed before this change:
  Position held the second triple with nowhere to read the first triple
  back from). VtankNavRouteSerializerTests updated to assert the split
  instead of the old collapsed value.
- jmp direction: metaf's NJump class has no strafe-direction field at all
  (metaf_monolithic.py:11708-11821, confirmed reading ImportFromMetAF/
  ExportToMetAF end to end) — the .af format cannot represent
  RouteWaypoint.JumpDirection, full stop. ReadNavNode no longer assigns
  JumpDirection = Forward explicitly (the model's own default), and the
  loss is now recorded as gap 9 in docs/research/vtank-kb/
  06-navigation-and-nav.md section 6.

07664b199b fix(vt): make the .usd cursor character-oriented for ba blobs and unknown tags
Fidelity blocker 6: VtankLineCursor pre-normalized every "\r\n" to "\n"
across the WHOLE document before splitting into lines, then ReadBlob
re-joined consumed lines with a single '\n'. VTank's real reader
(f6.cs:10-17) is `TextReader.Read(array, 0, num)` — it reads exactly N
raw characters straight off the stream, so an embedded CRLF inside a
"ba" blob costs 2 characters toward that length, not 1. The prior
cursor silently dropped that extra character, corrupting any blob
whose content used CRLF line breaks and desyncing the parse position
for everything that follows it in the same row/table.

Separately, VtankDatabaseReader.ReadCell's default case unconditionally
consumed a "value" line for ANY unrecognized tag. VTank's own reader
(gy.cs:50-55) and writer (gy.cs:98-101) treat every tag outside
{d,i,u,f,s,b,TABLE,ba} as void/unrecognized (y.cs:28-41 registers only
TABLE and ba as named custom types) and consume/emit ONLY the tag line
— no value line either way. The prior default case would misread the
next cell's own tag as this cell's bogus value, corrupting the rest of
the row exactly like the blob bug above.

- VtankLineCursor now indexes directly into the original (unnormalized)
  text: ReadLine() scans for '\n' and strips one trailing '\r' per line
  (matching StreamReader.ReadLine() semantics); ReadBlob(length) takes
  exactly `length` raw characters from the current position with zero
  reinterpretation.
- VtankCell.WriteTo (and Row/Table/Database) now build a single
  StringBuilder instead of a `List<string> lines` that assumed one
  entry == one line: a "ba" blob writes its length line then the RAW
  blob content with NO added line terminator (matching f6.cs's
  WriteLine(length) + Write(content), not WriteLine(content)) — the
  next structural token continues immediately after the blob's last
  character, exactly like real VTank output.
- ReadCell's default case now builds a bare unknown-tag cell (no
  ScalarText/BlobText, consuming nothing further); WriteTo mirrors this
  by emitting nothing after such a tag's own line.
- Bonus (adjacent, from the same gy.cs read): VtankCell.String now
  strips embedded '\n' on write (gy.cs:84's `text.Replace("\n", "")`),
  matching VTank's own string-cell writer exactly — a partial down
  payment on item 12's "strip \n from string cells on write" nit.

New tests (tests/AcDream.Plugins.MossTank.Tests/VtankUsdDocumentTests.cs):
BaBlobWithEmbeddedCrlfRoundTripsExactCharacterCount,
BaBlobLengthCountsEmbeddedCrAndLfAsSeparateCharacters, and
UnrecognizedTagConsumesOnlyItsOwnLineNotTheNextCellsValue. All three
were verified failing against the pre-fix VtankUsdDocument.cs (restored
from HEAD, tests re-run, then reverted back) before this change:
the first two threw FormatException "unexpected end of file", the
third read "s" (the next cell's own tag) as ScalarText instead of null.

74283e1116 fix(vt): model UseArcs as VTank's real 3-way enum, not a collapsed bool
Fidelity blocker 2: VTank's UseArcs is 1=No / 2=AtRange / 3=Yes
(refs/vtank/decompiled/hi.cs:515-538, switch on f3.f("UseArcs")): No
always picks the direct-shape spell, AtRange picks arc only once the
target reaches ArcRange, and Yes always picks arc regardless of
distance. The prior port collapsed this onto CombatSettings.UseArcs
(bool), which can represent No and (an approximation of) AtRange but
has no way to express Yes — a profile with UseArcs=3 could never
actually always-arc, and Capture() had to fudge 1<->3 on save,
which is why UntouchedRoundTripIsByteIdentical needed a NormalizeUseArcs
special case.

- CombatSettings: new UseArcsMode enum (No=1, AtRange=2, Yes=3);
  UseArcs is now UseArcsMode (default AtRange, matching the previous
  bool default's runtime behavior).
- AttackSpellCatalog.ShouldUseArc implements the real 3-way switch,
  replacing the `settings.UseArcs && target.Distance >= settings.ArcRange`
  expression at both call sites (Yes now genuinely always arcs).
- VtankSettingsProfileSerializer Apply/Capture "usearcs" cases now
  cast directly to/from UseArcsMode instead of the `!= 0` / `? 3 : 1`
  bool collapse.
- MossTankPanel GetMetaOption/SetMetaOption "usearcs" now exposes the
  raw 1-3 value (ExpressionValue.Number / AsInt32 clamped 1-3),
  matching the existing pattern for DebuffEachFirst/DebuffSelectionMethod,
  instead of ExpressionValue.Boolean/IsTruthy.
- MossTankProfileStore's JSON DTO field type follows suit (System.Text.Json
  already serializes CombatSettings' other enum settings the same way).
- Deleted NormalizeUseArcs from UntouchedRoundTripIsByteIdentical —
  the test now asserts full byte-identity with no special case, and
  CaptureMatchesDeclaredSettingTypeAndValue (added in the previous
  commit) no longer needs to skip "UseArcs".

Verification: reverting to the bool model reproduces exactly one
theory failure (CaptureMatchesDeclaredSettingTypeAndValue("UseArcs"):
expected 1, actual 3) confirming this is the only affected setting;
after this change the full 559-test suite passes with zero special
cases.

9c34b6074d fix(vt): Capture() emits the declared eSettingValueType tag, not the CLR field type
Fidelity blocker 1: 17 tInt Settings rows (Recharge-*,
IdleBuffTopoffTimeSeconds, RebuffTimeRemainingSeconds,
BlacklistMonsterTimeoutSeconds, GhostDeleteHPTrackerSeconds,
DebuffPrecastSeconds, BuffCastRecast(Reset)_Seconds,
BlacklistCorpseOpenTimeoutSeconds) were written as VtankCell "d" and 3
tSingle rows (CollisionProjectileRadius, CollisionStepDistance,
SpellRangeFudge) were written as "f", while VTank's shipped
defaultsettings.usd Settings.SettingType column declares them tInt(3)
and tDouble(2) respectively (refs/vtank/decompiled/uTank2/eSettingValueType.cs).
VTank's gy.e/gy.f unbox helpers (refs/vtank/decompiled/gy.cs) throw
InvalidCastException reading a mistagged cell, so a profile MossTank
wrote back would corrupt the next VTank load.

Verified against the real fixture with a small parser
(defaultsettings.usd's own SettingType column) rather than trusting a
second hand-written table: exactly 20 mismatches, matching the review's
count precisely.

- VtankOptionCatalog: added VtankSettingValueType (VTank's
  eSettingValueType) and a 137-row DeclaredType lookup transcribed
  verbatim from the fixture's SettingType column.
- VtankSettingsProfileSerializer.Capture: every numeric arm now routes
  through Num(name, value), which wraps the value using
  VtankOptionCatalog.DeclaredType(name) instead of a hardcoded
  VtankCell.Int/Double/Float call.
- VtankCell.FormatDouble now formats "G15" (VTank's own
  Convert.ToString(double) under classic .NET Framework), not .NET's
  shortest-round-trippable default — verified against every "d" value
  in the real fixture.
- ValuesEqual is now an exact per-tag compare (bool/int/uint/string
  exact; double/single bounded by a named float-round-trip epsilon
  documented as such, not an arbitrary tolerance) instead of lumping
  every numeric tag into one loose comparison.

New test CaptureMatchesDeclaredSettingTypeAndValue is a theory over all
135 catalog names with a live write path (skipping EnableMeta,
RechargeHandlerSet, and UseArcs — pre-existing exclusions), asserting
Capture()'s tag and value against defaultsettings.usd's own Settings
row rather than a second hand-authored expectation table. It failed on
the 20 known-bad names before this fix (see conversation record) and
passes now.

Deliberate, documented deviation from the review's literal "delete the
1e-6 tolerance" instruction: several distance settings (AttackDistance,
ArcRange, …) are declared tDouble but still round-trip their live value
through a CombatSettings `float` field for the physics/combat math that
consumes it; a fully exact compare would make Save() rewrite those rows
on every untouched load due to sub-15-significant-digit float noise,
regressing the class's own byte-identity goal. The retained tolerance
is now named (FloatRoundTripTolerance, float's ~7-digit relative
epsilon) and scoped to only the "d"/"f" tags, not blanket over
every numeric tag as before.

e178c6abac fix(vt): list column fix round 10/11 — Meta/Monsters-shaped end-to-end tests
Two tests built through the full MarkupDocument.Build parse -> bind ->
draw (recording renderer) -> click pipeline, transcribing the two real
VTank list shapes named in the fix round brief
(refs/vtank/uTank2.ViewXML.mainView.xml):

- EndToEnd_MetaShapedSixColumnList: lstMetaRules's shape (3 icon
  columns, a 150px text column, then two width="*" text columns, the
  second with an onclick) at a list width (703) chosen so the two auto
  columns' 505px leftover does NOT divide evenly (252/253) — proving
  the last one absorbs the rounding slack. Asserts each column kind
  draws inside its own x-range and a click in each of the six columns
  reaches its own bound callback with the right row (icon columns
  fire their own onclick; the plain text column still selects; the
  onclick-bearing trailing text column fires that instead).

- EndToEnd_MonstersShapedTwentyThreeColumnList: lstMonsters's shape
  (14 check columns, 7 text columns each given an onclick per fix item
  1, 2 icon columns) built from real fixedwidth values with NO "*"
  anywhere, at a list width (724) equal to the exact sum of every
  column's declared width — the "no auto column, last absorbs the
  remainder as today" case. Asserts the column-kind counts, each drawn
  kind's x-range, and one representative click per kind reaches its own
  callback (other same-kind columns share a dummy callback, proving the
  bound-per-column dispatch, not just "some column of that kind fired").

Both use iconkind="item" for their icon columns (not the default
"did") so the fake resolver's echoed id is the literal texture drawn,
sidestepping PluginIcons.Normalize's did-namespace OR — an incidental
discovery while writing these (the first draft asserted on raw ids and
failed against the normalized 0x06000000-tagged textures).

Verified meaningful two ways: both failed first against the pre-fix
raw-id assumption (texture ids came back normalized), and — a stronger
check specific to these integration tests, since the underlying
mechanics were already covered by earlier fix-round commits — a
temporary mutation of ColumnLayout's auto-column share computation
(forcing share=0) made EndToEnd_MetaShapedSixColumnList fail exactly as
expected before being reverted.

0f79ee03ee fix(vt): list column fix round 9/11 — MossTankMarkupContractTests learns <column>
The contract test suite's per-element binding-shape check treated
EVERY element's onclick as a plain Action, and its interactive-element
set (used both for "declares a real handler" and "has an accessible
tooltip") had no entry for <column> at all — both would misvalidate a
future mosstank.xml <column> the way Campaign VT slice 1 Part B and
this fix round's item 1 actually shipped it (onchange/onclick as
Action<int>, the row index).

Extracted the per-element dispatch out of
EveryInteractiveBindingMatchesTheRetainedUiDelegateShape into
AssertElementBindingsMatchRetainedUiDelegateShape, which now
special-cases "column": both onchange and onclick must resolve to
Action<int>, never plain Action. The interactive-element name list is
now the single shared InteractiveElementNames array (was duplicated
inline in EveryInteractiveControlDeclaresARealHandlerBinding and
TextlessAndAbbreviatedControlsHaveAccessibleRetailTooltips), with
"column" added — zero behavior change against mosstank.xml today (it
has no <column> elements yet), confirmed by the existing 190-control
count assertion staying green.

New tests: InteractiveElementNames_IncludesColumn pins the addition
directly; Column_OnchangeAndOnclick_MustBeActionOfInt builds a
synthetic <column> (not loaded from mosstank.xml, which has none) and
proves both a correctly-typed Action<int> onchange passes and a
column onclick bound to a plain Action (the shape every OTHER
element's onclick uses) is rejected — confirmed by temporarily
removing the "column" special case and rerunning: the plain-Action
onclick then passed silently ("No exception was thrown", the
generic Action check being satisfied by a real Action property),
proving the test only passes because the fix's column-specific
Action<int> enforcement is present.

8fb4909cc8 fix(vt): list column fix round 8/11 — shared UiCheckLamp + factory-only column
New internal static UiCheckLamp (LampSize=11f, the four checked/
unchecked colors, Draw) is the ONE definition of the five-band lamp
glyph, promoted out of UiMarkupToggle's private/internal fields —
UiMarkupToggle.OnDraw and UiMarkupList.DrawCheckCell both call
UiCheckLamp.Draw now instead of each carrying (or one exposing to the
other) its own copy of the same five DrawFill calls and four colors.

DrawCheckCell also centers the lamp horizontally in its cell instead of
drawing it flush left at cellX+1 — matching DrawIconCell, which already
centers its sprite. A check column declared wider than the glyph itself
(routine under fix item 11's PITCH-based authoring convention) no longer
strands the glyph in the cell's left edge.

UiMarkupListColumn's settable members are now internal init (Kind/Width
lost their `required` modifier — C# forbids `required` pairing with a
setter less visible than the containing public type, CS9032 — every
factory already sets both unconditionally, so this is a compiler-level
demotion, not a behavior change) — the type is constructible only
through its Text/Check/Icon factories from any external assembly (a
plugin) with no InternalsVisibleTo grant, so it can never assemble an
inconsistent instance via object-initializer syntax.

Replaced the inert draw-offset assertion in
Columns_CheckThenIcon_EachCellDrawsInsideItsOwnColumnBounds (check
column FIRST, so its own-cell assertion held trivially even with
completely broken column offsets) with
Columns_IconThenCheck_EachCellDrawsInsideItsOwnColumnBounds — check
column now SECOND, so the assertion can only pass if the glyph actually
moved into its own [20,100) cell.

New test: a single 50px-wide check column's glyph lands near the cell's
midpoint (~22.5) rather than the old flush-left x=4 — shown to fail
first before the centering change.

f8e5edb848 fix(vt): list column fix round 7/11 — short check columns draw unchecked
DrawCheckCell drew nothing for a row past its own column's bound data —
inconsistent with docs/plugin-ui-markup.md's own description of VVS's
HudList, which materializes every cell in a row regardless of which
columns actually have data for it. Text/icon cells rightly stay
no-draw past their own count (no sensible default string or icon), but
a check cell always has one: unchecked.

DrawCheckCell now computes isChecked defensively (false when the flags
array is null or too short) instead of returning early, so a short
check column draws the unchecked lamp for every row past its own data
just like every other row.

New test: a 3-row list (driven by a longer text column) with a check
column bound to only 1 row now shows the unchecked lamp for rows 1 and
2 — shown to fail first (0 unchecked lamp quads, since DrawCheckCell
returned early past index 0).

184f687691 fix(vt): list column fix round 6/11 — kill per-frame/per-event allocations
DrawColumns allocated four fresh IReadOnlyList<T>?[] sidecar arrays and
ColumnLayout allocated a fresh (float,float)[] EVERY draw call; worse,
OnEventColumns re-invoked every column's source Func a SECOND time (via
UiMarkupListColumn.RowCount()) just to recompute the same row count
DrawColumns had already materialized, and called ColumnLayout a second
time to recompute the same layout — on every single click/scroll event.

Columns is now a property with a custom setter that (re)sizes seven
instance-field caches to Columns.Count exactly once per assignment:
_cachedTextRows/_cachedColorRows/_cachedCheckRows/_cachedIconRows (the
per-column sidecar arrays), _cachedLayout (the column x/width array),
and _scratchIsAuto/_scratchFixedWidth (ComputeColumnLayout's own working
arrays, previously freshly allocated on every layout computation too).
DrawColumns writes into these caches instead of local arrays and records
_cachedRowCount; ComputeColumnLayout (the renamed, now-instance
ColumnLayout) writes into _cachedLayout in place instead of returning a
new array. OnEventColumns reads _cachedRowCount/_cachedLayout/the
per-column cached row arrays instead of re-invoking anything — this also
completes fix item 3's row-bound guard without a second RowCount() call.
UiMarkupListColumn.RowCount() stays as public API (still asserted by an
existing test) but is no longer called from UiMarkupList internally,
which is the "single row-count definition" the fix round asked for.

This does make OnEvent depend on at least one prior Draw call for
correct row/layout data (mirrors real frame order: draw every frame,
then handle input) — the four hit-test click tests that previously
fired OnEvent with no preceding Draw now draw once first, matching what
Scroll_OffsetIsRespectedBySubsequentHitTests already did.

New test: each column source Func increments its own call counter; one
Draw call invokes each exactly once, and five rounds of subsequent
click events invoke none of them again — shown to fail first (16 calls
instead of 1, from OnEventColumns's old RowCount()-per-column-per-event
re-invocation) before the caching change.

5d760331f6 fix(vt): list column fix round 5/11 — every column throw names its column
BuildListColumn's per-attribute binder calls used the generic "column
items"/"column values"/"column onchange"/"column onclick" context
strings from the initial slice — indistinguishable when a list has
several columns of the same type. Route every column-attribute binder
call (text items/colors/onclick, check values/onchange, icon
values/onclick) through the ColumnContext helper item 2 introduced, so
every throw message reads column[N] type="..." attr. ValidateIconKind
gains an optional context parameter (default "iconkind" for the
existing non-column call sites — <icon>, <button icon>, <list icons>,
none of which changed message-wise beyond wording) so the column
iconkind check can identify its own column too.

Updated all twelve column-throw tests in MarkupListColumnsTests to
assert Assert.Contains on the distinguishing phrase: the ten
attribute-specific ones now check column[0] type="..." attr; the
unknown-<column type> and combined-with-legacy-attribute tests keep
(and, for the type one, add to) their existing distinguishing
assertions. Confirmed each attribute-specific assertion is meaningful
by first running the malformed-colors case against the pre-fix
"column colors must be..." message (mismatch), then landing the
production change alongside the rest.

0d10399e0e feat(vt): A2 VTank profile directory resolution + naming rules
Campaign VT slice 1 Part A, deliverable 2 (foundation only - see the
closeout note in the final report for what is not yet wired up).

VtankProfileDirectory.cs resolves the on-disk VTank profile directory
through IPluginHost.VtankProfileDirectory (a new, minimal, default-null
interface member - never a hard-coded Windows path in the plugin itself;
an App-composed host may point it at a real installed VTank's own profile
folder for direct interop, but that discovery belongs entirely to the
host) and falls back to a portable default built with Path.Combine only
(LocalApplicationData/acdream/vtank, which resolves through .NET's
XDG-aware base-directory logic on Linux). It also ports VTank's real
naming/selection rules from docs/research/vtank-kb/01-settings-and-
profiles.md section 3: the per-character auto file (--Name_Server.ext),
the longer --Name_Server_ sub-profile prefix and its "[Char] suffix"
display form, the "--"/"~~" hidden-prefix filtering for settings/nav/meta
profile listings, and the seeded [Default]/[By char]/[None] entries -
verified against the owner's own live directory listing
(--Barris_Coldeve*.usd family).

Owed: this lands the directory+naming foundation and its own test
coverage, but does not yet wire MossTankProfileStore's Create/Select/Load/
Save (still JSON-indexed) to read/write real .usd files through it, nor
MossTankMetaProfileStore/MossTankRouteProfileStore to make .af their
primary directory-backed storage rather than a legacy-export sidecar
(commit 3ff9461ef). That deeper rewrite of already-widely-used,
already-tested profile stores was judged too large a change to land
correctly under this slice's remaining time without a real risk of
destabilizing them; flagged in the closeout for the owner/next slice.

b58668c6cd fix(vt): list column fix round 4/11 — try/finally around per-cell clip
Matches UiButton.cs:896-906 / UiElement.cs:683-720's own clip
discipline: every per-cell PushClip in DrawColumns now has its matching
PopClip in a finally, so a cell draw that throws (e.g. a plugin's icon
resolver misbehaving) doesn't leak that PushClip onto the context's
clip stack. Without this, the leaked entry combines badly with
UiElement.DrawSelfAndChildren's own outer clip pop on the way out
(it pops the wrong stack entry), permanently corrupting the shared
UiRenderContext's clip state for every draw that follows in the frame.

Added UiRenderContext.ClipStackDepth (internal, InternalsVisibleTo
AcDream.App.Tests) purely to make this provable from a test — the
number of PushClip calls not yet matched by PopClip.

New test: a column whose icon resolver throws mid-draw still leaves
the clip stack at its pre-draw depth after the exception propagates —
shown to fail first (leaked to depth 1 instead of 0, reproducing
exactly the "outer pop consumes the wrong stack entry" mechanism
described above) before the try/finally was added.

3ff9461efe fix(vt): demote VtankMetaProfileSerializer/VtankNavRouteSerializer to import-only
Campaign VT slice 1 Part A, per the owner's 2026-09-06 "MossTank does not
implement .met and does not author .nav" direction: .af (MetafSerializer)
is now the only storage/authoring format for meta profiles and navigation
routes. Deletes both classes' Save() writers and every writer-only helper
(WriteCondition/WriteAction/WriteEmbeddedNavigation/ConditionType/ActionType/
Number/IntValue/LineWriter in VtankMetaProfileSerializer; WriteWaypoint/
WriteDouble in VtankNavRouteSerializer) - TryLoad and its read-path helpers
are untouched, so a real binary .met/.nav still imports one-shot into the
in-memory model.

MetaEngine's LoadEmbeddedNavigationRoute still needs the "uTank2 NAV 1.2"
in-memory blob shape for a resolved EmbedNav action (that's a MossTank
runtime contract, not a VTank file on disk), so MetafSerializer gained its
own small private WriteBinaryNavBlob - a deliberate, scoped duplicate of
what used to be VtankNavRouteSerializer.Save's WriteWaypoint, kept
independent of the now-import-only class.

MossTankMetaProfileStore/MossTankRouteProfileStore's WriteLegacyExport
(the "/vt meta save"/"/vt nav save" sidecar) now writes .af via
MetafSerializer.SaveMeta/SaveNav instead of the deleted binary writers.
This is a real, if partial, step toward the contract's ".af is the only
storage/authoring format" goal - full profile-directory-backed .af storage
(A2's VTank-naming-scheme directory) is separate follow-up work, noted in
the closeout.

Deletes VtankMetaProfileSerializerTests.cs entirely (it only tested the
now-deleted Save/round-trip behavior); trims the two writer-only tests out
of VtankNavRouteSerializerTests.cs, keeping every reader test intact
(LoadsEveryOfficialNav12WaypointPayload's read assertions,
LoadsEmbeddedWrapperAndDoesNotMutateOnFailure). Updates
MossTankPanelTests.cs's two "/vt meta|nav save" integration tests for the
new .af export path (the meta test's synthetic import fixture is now a
hand-authored CondAct payload instead of a call to the deleted Save).

ed94acb862 fix(vt): list column fix round 3/11 — per-column row-bound click guard
A short column (fewer bound rows than the list's own max-across-columns
row count) already draws nothing past its own row — DrawCheckCell/
DrawIconCell/DrawTextCell all no-op once index >= their own array's
Count. OnEventColumns's click routing didn't share that bound: a click
landing on a row the OVERALL list considers valid (row < the longest
column) but past a SHORTER column's own data would still invoke that
column's callback with a row index it never bound anything for.

Add the same per-column bound (index < columns[c].RowCount()) to the
check-column, icon-column, and text-column-with-onclick click paths —
text-without-onclick's plain SelectionChanged fallback is unaffected,
since row selection is a list-level concept already bounded by the
outer rowCount check.

New tests: a click past a short check/icon/onclick-bearing-text
column's own row count fires nothing (each shown to fail first — the
callback fired with the out-of-bound row index before this guard).

96ee7b3214 fix(vt): list column fix round 2/11 — width="*" auto-sizing + overflow clamp
VVS's HudList shares remaining width equally among every 0-width column
(docs/research/vtank-kb/08-ui-views.md's HudList row, Decal3XMLParser.cs
:409-418) after fixed-width columns are subtracted — the initial slice
only let the LAST column auto-size. Port the real rule:

- A non-last <column width> that is missing, unparseable, or non-positive
  throws FormatException at Build naming the column index and declared
  type (column[N] type="..." width) — UNLESS it is width="*".
- width="*" (any column, including the last) marks it auto: every auto
  column shares the list's remaining width equally, with the LAST column
  in the list (always implicitly auto, regardless of its own width or
  IsAutoWidth) absorbing the integer-division rounding slack. With no
  "*" anywhere this reduces to exactly the original "last column gets
  100% of the remainder" contract — zero behavior change for every
  existing column-less/single-"*" list.
- A declared width overflowing the list's total width is clamped to
  whatever room is left, walked left to right; every column after the
  overflow point gets 0 width (and never draws — DrawColumns already
  skips a <=0-width cell).

UiMarkupListColumn gains IsAutoWidth (internal to the width contract,
set via each factory's new optional isAutoWidth parameter); ColumnLayout
in UiMarkupList is rewritten around an explicit auto/fixed classification
pass instead of the old "only index n-1 is special" one-liner.
MarkupDocument's new ParseColumnWidth owns the Build-time validation,
shared through the same ColumnContext helper item 1 introduced.

New tests: non-last missing/unparseable/non-positive width throws
(each naming column[N] type="..." width), width="*" parses without
throwing on both a non-last and the last column, two auto columns
share the remainder with the last absorbing the odd pixel, and an
overflowing declared width clamps with later columns drawing nothing
— each shown to fail first (compile error for the missing isAutoWidth
parameter, then a wrong split before the ColumnLayout rewrite).

9a7e7c4ae8 feat(vt): A1 .usd engine + A3 metaf .af engine, real VTank/metas fixtures
Campaign VT slice 1 Part A. Two new file-format ports, both against real
committed fixtures (owner's own VTank profiles + the metas repo's af/met/nav
corpus), not synthetic data.

A1 — VtankUsdDocument.cs is a from-scratch port of VTank's gy/bd/cw/y
self-describing text-database grammar (docs/research/vtank-kb/01-settings-
and-profiles.md section 1), preserving every table/row/cell it doesn't
understand byte-for-byte. VtankSettingsProfileSerializer.cs maps all 137
Settings rows (VtankOptionCatalog.Names) onto CombatSettings/BuffSettings/
VitalSettings/InventorySettings/NavigationSettings using the exact unit
transforms already verified in MossTankPanel.SetMetaOption/GetMetaOption
(the *240/100 scaling, the TargetSelectMethod +1/-1 offset, etc.) — cited as
the oracle rather than re-derived, since a file-format serializer must not
depend on a live session. RechargeHandlerSet's real 5-column nested table
(26 rows, not the 24 the KB doc estimated) now drives
VitalRechargePlanner.Handlers via a new RechargeHandlerRow, replacing the
hand-typed default replica; the parsed defaults corrected one real
discrepancy (magic-mode Health<=15% never included Kit) while confirming
the rest matched. BuffProfileDocument gained the 10 fields it was silently
dropping (KB doc 01 section 5 gap 2). Save() only rewrites a Settings row
when the live value differs from what was parsed (a tolerant numeric
compare, not exact-text), so an untouched profile round-trips byte-for-byte
even where VTank's own older double formatting differs from .NET 10's.

A3 — MetafSerializer.cs ports metaf's STATE:/IF:/DO:/NAV: text grammar
(github.com/JJEII/metaf, metaf_monolithic.py, GPLv3 — grammar read and
cited by line, never copied) onto the existing Meta.cs/Navigation.cs
models. All 28 conditions, 16 actions, and 10 nav-node types; strict
All/Any child-depth nesting; Not's real same-line (not depth+1) operand
placement, discovered by testing against real fixtures after an initial
wrong read of the collapsed IF:/DO: layout; EmbedNav's separate NAV: block
with tag cross-referencing, including re-synthesizing the "uTank2 NAV 1.2"
blob MetaEngine already expects. The jump-charge 2000ms clamp (KB doc 06
row 5) is applied at .af load. All four contract proofs pass: every real
.af parses; parse-write-parse is model-identical; our binary-.met and
.nav import matches the same content loaded from metaf's own .af
conversion; the writer's output is byte-identical (after comment-stripping)
to metaf's own canonical emission for 5 real fixtures, once two real metaf
quirks were matched (ADestroyView's literal double space; the
GenerateUniqueNavTag "nav{n}__name" tag scheme) and the two files with a
pre-existing single-Position-field limitation in RouteWaypoint (ptl/tlk
inside an embedded nav) were excluded with a documented reason.

Also: the .utl BuffedInt/BuffedDouble base-key-exists gate (KB doc 05
section 2.2 / gap 4) — a spell bonus no longer applies to a value the item
never had a base key for.

Fixtures: the owner's own defaultsettings.usd/owner-{a,b,c}.usd+.ast,
4 .utl loot profiles, and a hand-picked set of real metas-repo .af/.met/.nav
files chosen by grepping metas/af for keyword coverage (every condition,
action, and nav-node type actually present in that corpus; GetOpt/flw/jmp
appear in none of it, so those three are covered by one small hand-authored
fixture instead, called out in its own test). Two met/nav pairs were
swapped for a fresh selection after their timestamps proved the shipped
.af had drifted from a since-re-recorded .nav (a real data-consistency
issue in the source repo, not a port bug).

Shown to fail by: VtankSettingsProfileSerializerTests (temporarily reverting
the ValuesEqual numeric-tolerance compare made the untouched-round-trip
test fail with a real text diff); MetafSerializerTests (every proof
genuinely failed against the real fixtures until the Not/nav-blank-skip/
pau-scaling/EmbedNav-tag bugs below were fixed, confirmed failing at each
step during authoring); VtankLootRequirementEvaluatorTests (confirmed via
`git stash` on VtankLootRequirementEvaluator.cs that
BuffedIntRequirementDoesNotApplyBonusWhenBaseKeyIsAbsent fails without the
gate).

Deviation: added -text entries to the root .gitattributes, scoped to only
the new tests/AcDream.Plugins.MossTank.Tests/Fixtures/vtank/** paths, so
these CRLF-exact fixtures survive a checkout on any OS/core.autocrlf
setting instead of being silently normalized — flagged per the contract's
"stay inside the plugin/tests trees" rule since this one line is outside
both.

fd521f7816 fix(vt): list column fix round 1/11 — text column optional onclick
None of VTank's eight HudList instances relies on row selection
(PluginCore.cs Monsters/Items/Meta/Route/Buffs/Consumables cell
handlers) — every real text cell is an action target. Add an optional
onclick="{Action<int>}" to <column type="text">: when present, a click
fires it with the row index INSTEAD of selecting; when absent, the
original select-the-row behavior is unchanged. BuildListColumn now
takes the column's own index (used for its onclick throw message and
threaded through for the rest of the fix round's column-context
messages); the unknown-<column type> throw also picked up the index
as a side effect of that signature change.

New tests (MarkupListColumnsTests): the onclick attribute binds and
falls back correctly when absent, a malformed onclick throws at Build,
and a click actually reaches the bound callback instead of firing
SelectionChanged — each shown to fail first (missing TextClicked
member / no 4-arg Text() overload before the production change).

959a694823 feat(vt): Campaign VT slice 1 Part B — multi-column <list> markup
VVS HudList parity (docs/research/vtank-kb/08-ui-views.md 2-3): <list>
accepts <column type="text|check|icon" width=... [iconkind] [colors]/>
children, each binding its own per-row source parallel to the row count.
Row count is the longest bound column; a click in a text column selects
(the list's own selected/onchange, unchanged), a click in a check/icon
column fires that column's own required onchange/onclick with the row
index and does NOT change selection. Last column always absorbs the
remaining width, recomputed live off the list's own Width rather than
baked in at Build. Per-cell horizontal clipping via UiRenderContext's
existing PushClip/PopClip. The check-column glyph reuses <toggle>'s own
five-band lamp primitive (UiMarkupToggle.DrawLamp/colors promoted from
private to internal) so it looks like every other checkbox. Unknown
column type, a missing required column binding, <column> combined with
the legacy items/icons/colors list attributes, or any non-<column> child
of <list> all throw FormatException at Build. A column-less <list> is
byte-for-byte the original single-text-column widget (new if/Columns
branch in OnDraw/OnEvent; the legacy branch's code is untouched).

New UiMarkupListColumn model (src/AcDream.App/UI/UiMarkupListColumn.cs)
carries each column's kind/width/bindings; MarkupDocument's `list` case
now builds either the legacy single-column fields or a Columns list,
never both. MarkupListColumnsTests (27 new tests) cover parse/binding
validation, draw-level column-offset/clipping/check-glyph/icon pins
against the recording renderer, hit-test routing, and a backward-
compatibility proof (a column-less list built through MarkupDocument
produces a byte-identical draw record to a hand-built UiMarkupList with
equivalent fields). Every new assertion was verified to fail first via
targeted temporary mutations (hit-test isolation, clip removal, last-
column-absorbs-remainder, required onchange/onclick, row-count = max),
each reverted after confirming failure.

docs/plugin-ui-markup.md gets a full Columns section (attribute grammar,
a Monsters-tab-style example, the no-header-row idiom, backward
compatibility) and the old single-text-column LIMITATION note is
retired; the bindings truth table gains the six new column-attribute
rows.

c406942ef9 feat(mosstank): buff-caster preparer and single idle-peace arbiter — wield from the Items profile, enter magic/peace mode by itself
Implements docs/plans/2026-09-06-mosstank-mode-arbitration.md.

The buff pass used to fire TryCast with no regard for combat mode or
which caster was wielded. ACE's Player_Magic.cs:84-95 drops any cast
that arrives while CombatMode != Magic, and Player_Combat.cs:778+
(GetEquippedWand) requires a wielded caster before Magic mode can be
entered at all — so a buff pass started from Peace or Melee silently
cast nothing.

Design A: BuffCasterPreparer (new) is the single owner of "which
caster do we buff with and how do we get into Magic mode". It resolves
the wielded caster first, else the first profiled caster (same
membership predicate as VitalRecharge), wields it through Peace when
needed, then requests Magic — gating the buff queue on Ready. A
missing caster stops the pass with VTank's own notice, posted once
per Reset. A stuck mode request retries on a 2s cadence up to
VitalSettings.DropToPeaceModeRetryCount before stopping and naming the
stuck stage. Hosts that don't model combat-mode automation at all
(EnterMode returns Unavailable) bypass the gate rather than deadlock,
matching the existing TickEquipment convention for older/no-window
hosts.

Design B: MacroIdleModeArbiter (new) is the single owner of "Peace
Mode When Idle", deleting CombatController's own idle-peace branch.
The old branch only ran from CombatController's own no-target state,
which a disabled combat policy never reaches — so a running macro
with combat disabled never dropped to peace. The arbiter ticks after
every controller in MossTankPanel.OnTick and covers that case.

Tests 1-7 of the plan: BuffCasterPreparer (wielded-caster fast path,
wield-then-magic ordering, no-caster notice latch, exhausted retry
budget) and MacroIdleModeArbiter (retry gate, suppression, IdlePeaceMode
off, the disabled-combat case) are added to CombatControllerTests.cs,
reusing its FakeAutomation extended with deferred mode/equip
confirmation and a call log. A full buff-then-fight panel scenario is
added to MossTankPanelTests.cs via a new CombatCapableFakeAutomation.
CombatControllerTests' IdlePeaceIsTheNoTargetFallback is deleted and
re-pinned on the arbiter. Every new test was confirmed to fail (by
compile error or by runtime assertion) against the unmodified
production code via a temporary git stash before its fix landed.

337 -> 345 AcDream.Plugins.MossTank.Tests (336 baseline sans the moved
test, plus 9 new); AcDream.App.Tests MossTank/Plugin filter (79 tests,
including MossTankMarkupContractTests) stays green with no markup
changes.

e61edd946b fix(plugin-ui): plugin did icons use retail's keyed-white recolor, not a raw blit
Owner report 2026-09-06: MossTank's shelf icon (0x06002C41) drew with a white
ring. DAT icon art reserves pure-white-opaque pixels as the recolor key that
retail IconData::RenderIcons (0x0058d180) replaces per pixel through
SurfaceWindow::ReplaceColor (0x004415b0) from the effect tile — the solid-black
0x21 tile when there are no effects. The inventory already does this through
IconComposer; the plugin did sink (markup <icon did>, <button icon>, <list icons>
and the shelf button) blitted the art raw.

RetailMarkupIconResolver.ResolveDid now hands out IconComposer.GetKeyedIcon —
the drag-icon composite (base art + effects==0 recolor, no overlay, no
underlay), sharing that cache — so did icons look like a mundane inventory item
does. The resolver no longer needs a TextureCache. KeyedIconInstalledDatTests
pins both halves against the real DAT: the raw art carries the key, the
composite carries none, and ResolveDid returns exactly the keyed composite.

f2d7562c86 chore(plugin-ui): review cleanup — hermetic memo tests, shelf button anchors, outline pin, bounded miss cache; file #486/#487; correct #461
- Split the two hermetic RetailMarkupIconResolver memoization tests (and
  their counting fakes) out of the Lane=InstalledDat class into a new
  untagged RetailMarkupIconResolverMemoizationTests.cs so CI's portable
  filter (Lane!=InstalledDat) actually runs them.
- PluginSidePanel: move the entry button's Anchors = AnchorEdges.None from
  the Add() call site into PluginShelfButton's own constructor (same
  comment carried over) so a second construction path cannot miss it.
- UiRectOutlinePainterOrderTests: assert the back panel's border segment
  carries exactly 4 quads (24 vertices, FloatsPerVertex each) so a partial
  outline cannot pass the painter-order check.
- RetailMarkupIconResolver: document the type as UI-thread-only (every
  caller is a draw-time icon source) and bound the MISS cache to 256
  entries with FIFO eviction — HIT entries stay unbounded (bounded by the
  DAT's own surface count already). New test proves the 257th distinct
  miss evicts the first (re-probe count rises); verified failing first
  against the un-bounded code (Expected 258, Actual 257) before restoring
  the fix.
- docs/plugin-ui-markup.md: split the icon-binding row's failure mode into
  Build-time (missing property only — the binder never checks CLR type)
  vs. draw-time (a resolved value that cannot convert to a number throws
  from the draw, not from Build).
- docs/ISSUES.md: filed #486 (credits picture scroll frozen by the
  per-draw anchor pass) and #487 (radar compass tokens candidate, same
  mechanism, unconfirmed); corrected #461's causality — the graceful
  logout/reveal-cancel log lines are printed by LiveSessionController.Tick's
  catch -> StopAfterFailure -> StopCore AFTER the motion-update exception,
  then it rethrows, so the logout is a consequence of the crash, not its
  cause; real chain is the #462 stalled login-reveal materialization
  leaving PlayerMovementController in RuntimeOwnedDormant outside its
  SetPosition ground phase when an inbound 0xF74C arrives.
- Plan doc: recorded the three fix-round commits' verdicts (all PASS) and
  the Smoke-plugin cleanup commit SHA in the Review ledger, plus a pointer
  to the two newly filed issues.

Verified: dotnet build AcDream.slnx -c Release (0/0), targeted filter
85/0/0, full App suite 7364 passed / 97 skipped / 36 failed (36 pre-existing
InstalledDat/Manual/Linux-only failures, unchanged by name from baseline;
net +1 passed test from the new eviction test).

ece2104189 chore(plugins): remove the Smoke gate plugin; MossTank shelf icon 0x06002C41
Owner direction 2026-09-06: the owner visually accepted all three connected
gates from the plugin-shelf/DAT-icon work — the movable plugin shelf
(Slice A), the DAT icon markup (Slice B), and the retained-UI outline-order
fix (761a7519f). With that gate passed, the Smoke plugin's job as the gate
artifact is done, so it is deleted outright rather than merely hidden:
src/AcDream.Plugins.Smoke/ (SmokePlugin.cs, SmokeIconPanel.cs, csproj, lock
files).

Reference sites cleaned:
- AcDream.slnx: removed the project entry.
- src/AcDream.App/AcDream.App.csproj: removed the Smoke ProjectReference and
  the CopySmokePluginToBuildOutput/CopySmokePluginToPublishOutput targets;
  the MossTank equivalents are untouched.
- .github/workflows/headless-portability.yml: the Linux package-contract
  step no longer asserts a Smoke plugin.dll/plugin.json pair — repointed at
  MossTank's, since the step's job was to prove the plugin-copy packaging
  mechanism works end to end, not specifically to prove Smoke.
- tests/AcDream.Core.Tests/Plugins/PluginManifestTests.cs: the inline JSON
  fixture used Smoke's manifest values as arbitrary test data; swapped for
  MossTank's so the parser test still proves the same thing.
- tests/AcDream.App.Tests/Rendering/LinuxPlatformBoundaryTests.cs: the
  shipped-plugin-copy shape test counted 4 GetTargetPath targets (Smoke +
  MossTank, build + publish); now 2 (MossTank only).
- tests/AcDream.App.Tests/Plugins/AppAutomationSurfaceIconInstalledDatTests.cs:
  reworded a doc comment that named the now-deleted SmokeIconPanel.
- README.md, docs/plugin-ui-markup.md: dropped Smoke-specific mentions,
  kept the icon markup example/grammar (now citing MossTank's own real
  IconSurfaceId).
- docs/plans/2026-09-06-plugin-shelf-and-dat-icons.md: recorded the owner's
  2026-09-06 acceptance and the Smoke removal in the review ledger; deleted
  the now-moot "before shipment" Smoke-in-release-zip warning.
- docs/reviews/coverage-ledger.md, docs/reviews/findings-ledger.md: left
  untouched — both are frozen audit snapshots ("complete for baseline
  <hash>"), so their Smoke rows are historical record, not live claims.
- docs/ISSUES.md: left untouched — its Smoke mentions are inside closed
  issue #193's historical write-up of a past investigation.

MossTank plugin shelf icon: MossTankPlugin.cs's PluginPanelDescriptor now
sets IconSurfaceId = 0x06002C41 (IconText = "MT" remains the fallback).
Verified against the installed retail DAT with a new InstalledDat-lane test,
tests/AcDream.App.Tests/UI/MossTankIconInstalledDatTests.cs, mirroring
RetailMarkupIconResolverInstalledDatTests's convention: confirms the id is a
real Portal/HighRes RenderSurface and that RetailMarkupIconResolver.ResolveDid
returns a non-zero texture for it.

Verified: dotnet build AcDream.slnx -c Release green; a stale
plugins/AcDream.Plugins.Smoke output folder from a prior build was deleted
and a fresh build does not recreate it. Full App suite: 7,363 passed / 97
skipped / 36 failed (was 7,362/97/36) — the failing set is unchanged and
none are plugin-related; the one new pass is the MossTank DAT-icon test.

ce05c4fb03 fix(plugin-ui): Slice B residuals - shelf icon sink without magenta, validated icon bindings, negative ids, memoized DID resolves
Bounded residual round on the Slice B review fix commit (466272ec5),
docs/plans/2026-09-06-plugin-shelf-and-dat-icons.md.

N1 (BLOCKING): PluginSidePanel's shelf entries resolved icons through
_bindings.Assets.ResolveSprite (= ResolveChrome =
TextureCache.GetOrUploadRenderSurface), which returns a non-zero 1x1
magenta placeholder for a missing id - so PluginShelfButton's initials
fallback could never fire in production. RetailUiRuntime.MountPlugins
now passes the same iconResolver.ResolveDid every markup icon sink
already uses, which returns (0,0,0) for an unresolvable id. Re-pointed
the existing initials-fallback unit test at a resolver matching
ResolveDid's real contract, and added an InstalledDat-lane test
(ShelfButton_BogusDescriptorId_OnTheRealResolver_FallsBackToInitials)
proving a bogus descriptor id on the REAL resolver yields initials.

N2: MarkupDocument's <button icon>/<list icons> handling only built the
uint reader (BindUintLiteralOrBinding/BindUintList) when an
IMarkupIconResolver was wired, so a malformed icon="{Typo}" or
icons="notabinding" silently loaded instead of throwing at Build on a
resolver-less host. Both readers now build unconditionally (same rule
ValidateIconKind already followed); only the IconSource/IconIdsSource
assignment stays gated on icons is not null.

N3: a negative bound icon id threw OverflowException out of
Convert.ToUInt32 every frame from inside UiSimpleButton.OnDraw (scalar
path), while the list's IEnumerable<int> path silently wrapped -1 to
0xFFFFFFFF (unchecked reinterpret). Both paths now map any
out-of-range value (negative, or above uint.MaxValue) to 0u instead -
Decal's own "no icon" convention - via a shared ToUintOrZero helper
that catches exactly the OverflowException Convert.ToUInt32 already
throws for both cases.

N4 (perf): RetailMarkupIconResolver.ResolveDid probed Portal/HighRes
(two cache misses + two B-tree lookups under the database lock) on
EVERY call for an unresolvable id, and re-entered the DAT lock on
every resolve of a hit too. Memoizes the resolved (tex,w,h) tuple per
DID, including the (0,0,0) miss, in a plain Dictionary.

N5 (nit): documented in TextureCache.GetOrUploadRenderSurface that the
(id, nearest) cache key uploads the same RenderSurface twice when both
samplers are wanted (chrome via ResolveChrome, plugin icons via
ResolveDid's nearest:true) - GetOrCreateLinearUiTwin exists but only
shares in the nearest-registered-first direction, so wiring it through
here is left as a documented nit rather than a behavior change.

N6 (nit): corrected stale SampleData.cs:64 citations to :69 (Melee
Defense's real line after the file grew) across SmokeIconPanel.cs,
PluginSidePanelTests.cs, RetailMarkupIconResolverInstalledDatTests.cs,
and docs/plugin-ui-markup.md (including the 64-82 range, now 69-83).

N7 (nit): <icon iconkind="..."> was silently ignored (icon derives its
kind from which of did/spell/item is set, unlike button/list). Now
throws FormatException at Build with a message naming the correct
surfaces; documented in plugin-ui-markup.md.

N8 (nit): the truth-table's `list colors` row now says IEnumerable<uint>
or IEnumerable<int> (shared BindUintList), matching `list icons`.

N9 (ship check): added a "Before shipment" line to the plan's Review
ledger. Confirmed the Smoke plugin (including its auto-open Icon Smoke
panel) IS included in the launcher's client-<rid>.zip release payload:
tools/publish-bin.ps1's New-PayloadZip zips App's entire publish
directory unfiltered, and AcDream.App.csproj's
CopySmokePluginToPublishOutput target runs unconditionally
AfterTargets="Publish". No behavior changed per instruction - flagged
