Owner 2026-09-07: plugin output and 'Unknown command' land in the chat
scroll, not the SpewBox. Plugin text = Decal/VTank-faithful; the
unknown-command re-route is recorded as AD-124 (retail types it 0x1A).
Bad-argument refusals of real retail commands stay SpewBox-only (AP-183).

Owner direction 2026-09-07 (same instruction as the sibling unknown-
command fix, previous commit): plugin-originated text must land in
the chat window instead of retail's ClientLocal (0x1A) SpewBox-only
channel. AppAutomationSurface.PostSystemMessage -- the production
implementation of IPluginChat.PostSystemMessage that MossTank/VTank-
style plugins call -- now passes RetailLogTextType.Default instead of
ClientLocal to RuntimeCommunicationState.AddText, so the text reaches
the chat transcript via Chat.OnSystemMessage instead of the SpewBox.
This matches Decal's own AddChatText behavior for plugin output.
IPluginChat.PostSystemMessage's doc comment is updated to describe
the new destination instead of the old one. Register row AD-124
(previous commit) already covers this site alongside the sibling
unknown-command change.
Mutation check: temporarily reverted PostSystemMessage's AddText call
back to ClientLocal and confirmed the new
AppAutomationSurfaceTests.PostSystemMessage_RoutesToChatLog_NeverSpewBox
test fails (Assert.Single() on an empty chat log) before restoring the
fix. Also adds ChatVMTests.RecentLines_ShowsPluginSystemMessage_TaggedDefault
pinning that a ChatVM bound to the same ChatLog surfaces the line.

Owner direction 2026-09-07 (verbatim): "Unknown commands like /vt or
stuff from plugins shall now go to the SpewBox. They should go to the
chatbox." Retail itself types ChatCommandRouter's "Unknown command"
refusals as ClientLocal (0x1A) -- the bit every ChatInterface window's
default filter excludes, so they only ever reached the transient
SpewBox overlay and left no transcript record.
Three call sites in ChatCommandRouter.Submit/EmitVerbHelp now call
IChatCommandFeedback.ShowSystemMessage (chat scroll, retail
Default/0x00) instead of ShowInterfaceText (SpewBox): the degenerate-
prefix "Unknown command: {verb}." guard, EmitVerbHelp's confirmed-
null-help branch, and EmitVerbHelp's unresolved-verb fallback. Every
OTHER 0x1A refusal in this file (AP-183 bad-argument refusals of REAL
retail commands -- lifestone, marketplace, channel list/on/off,
allegiance, house, the generic HandleFailureEvent(0x26) fallback,
DoStupidChannelHack, DoReply) is unchanged and still SpewBox-only --
the owner named only unknown commands and plugin text.
This is a deliberate deviation from retail's own 0x1A typing, recorded
as register row AD-124 (also covers the sibling plugin-text change in
a follow-up commit). docs/ISSUES.md #363/#367 get a one-line note
under each pointing at the re-route; their CLOSED status is untouched.
Mutation check: temporarily reverted all three ShowSystemMessage call
sites back to ShowInterfaceText and confirmed the 3 new/changed pinned
tests fail (Assert.Single() on an empty chat log) while the AP-183
boundary test (real command, bad args, still SpewBox) continues to
pass -- see ChatCommandRouterFeedbackRoutingTests.cs and the updated
ChatCommandRouterTests.cs/RetailCommandHelpTableTests.cs assertions.

UiMenu.RetailButtonArt (default true; every retail user unchanged);
MarkupDocument sets plain for plugin markup, style="retail" opts back.
Lead-reviewed diff; 10 new tests; goldens for the retail path.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds style to the <menu> attribute row and one sentence explaining why
plain is now the default (owner report: retail's gold pushbutton art
read as an out-of-place button next to a plugin's own dark list boxes)
and what style="retail" opts back into.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Wires the new UiMenu.RetailButtonArt switch (previous commit) into
plugin markup: <menu style="plain"> (also the default when the
attribute is absent) builds RetailButtonArt=false so a plugin's
dropdown gets the flat VTank-matching box; style="retail" opts a
panel back into the gold pushbutton face. Any other value throws
FormatException at Build naming the element, matching the existing
<icon iconkind> validation convention (ValidateIconKind).
Mutation check: temporarily stubbed ValidateMenuStyle to always return
true (as if the switch didn't exist) — 3 of the 4 new
MarkupDocumentTests.Menu_* tests failed exactly as expected
(Menu_NoStyleAttribute_DefaultsToPlain_RetailButtonArtFalse,
Menu_StylePlain_Explicit_RetailButtonArtFalse,
Menu_UnknownStyle_ThrowsFormatException_NamingTheElement); the
style="retail" test passed trivially either way, as expected for that
case. Restored before committing.

Owner live-client report 2026-09-07: "Those BIG gold/yellow buttons HAS
to go. That is not how vtank looks." VTank/Decal's HudCombo is a flat
dark box (background/border matching its own HudList) with a
left-aligned value and a small down-arrow — retail's gold pushbutton
art (the 3-slice LED-arrow face UiMenu.DrawButtonFace draws) is a
different widget family entirely.
Adds UiMenu.RetailButtonArt (default true, so every existing
non-markup UiMenu caller — chat's channel menu, vendor's category
dropdown, Config's option menus, the retail confirmation dialog, and
DatWidgetFactory's generic Type-6 element — keeps its byte-identical
retail face) plus DrawPlainClosedState/DrawPlainTriangle, which draw
the flat box entirely with UiRenderContext.DrawFill/DrawRectOutline (no
sprite or DAT quad at all) using colors mirroring UiMarkupList's own
chrome (background 0,0,0,0.92; border 0.46,0.37,0.16,1; text
0.91,0.87,0.76,1). Open/pressed only tints the border
(0.70,0.58,0.24,1) — never a sprite swap.
Mutation check: temporarily disabled the new `if (!RetailButtonArt)`
branch in OnDraw (reverting it to the pre-fix unconditional retail
path) — 3 of the 6 new UiMenuPlainStyleTests failed exactly as
expected (Plain_ClosedState_DrawsNoTexturedFaceQuad,
Plain_ClosedState_DrawsFillOutlineTextAndTriangle,
Plain_ClosedState_TriangleSitsRightAligned_TextSitsAtListPadding); the
3 retail-path/default-value tests kept passing since they don't
exercise the removed branch. Restored before committing.

A route (.af) file placed in metas/ used to silently "succeed" as an empty
MetaProfile: TryLoadMeta's STATE:/NAV: loop never adds a Rule for a NAV:-only
file, so the mistake was invisible. TryLoadMeta now tracks whether it saw
any STATE: block; a file with at least one NAV: block and zero STATE:
blocks throws (same FormatException path every other malformed-content
error already uses), naming the navs/ folder the file actually belongs in.
The opposite direction was already structurally caught by TryLoadNav's
existing "no NAV: block found" throw when a file has zero NAV: blocks (a
Meta profile with no embedded route, placed in navs/) — only the message
text is improved to name the metas/ folder. Both notices flow unchanged
through the existing MossTankProfileRecovery.Preserve/RecoveryNotice path
in MossTankMetaProfileStore.LoadCurrent/MossTankRouteProfileStore.LoadCurrent,
so no store-side code changes were needed for the wiring itself.
Mutation demonstrated: `git stash push -- src/AcDream.Plugins.MossTank/MetafSerializer.cs`
(reverting only the production fix, keeping every new test) reproduced 8
failures — the 5-fixture EveryNavOnlyAfFixtureIsRefusedByTryLoadMeta theory
(every real nav_*.af fixture parsed as a "successful" empty MetaProfile),
MetaOnlyContentIsRefusedByTryLoadNavWithMetasFolderNotice (message lacked
"metas/"), and the two store-level tests
MetaStoreRefusesToLoadANavOnlyFileWithNoticeNamingNavsFolder/
RouteStoreRefusesToLoadAMetaOnlyFileWithNoticeNamingMetasFolder — confirmed
by running the suite with the stash applied, then `git stash pop` to
restore the fix. All 640 tests (632 + 8 new) pass after.

Existing installs may still have real .af files sitting flat at the
VtankProfiles root from before step 1's two-folder cutover. Each store now
runs a one-time (per-instance, guarded) sweep on first LoadCurrent():
MossTankRouteProfileStore moves every flat nav_*.af/--nav_*.af file into
navs/ with the marker stripped (VtankProfileDirectory.StripLegacyNavMarker);
MossTankMetaProfileStore moves every OTHER flat .af file into metas/
unmarked. The partition predicate (IsLegacyFlatRouteFileName) is shared in
VtankProfileDirectory so both stores agree on which file belongs to which
sweep and neither touches the other's share. Both sweeps run before the
older legacy-JSON migrations so those see .af content already at its new
folder-qualified path. Collision rule: when the real destination already
exists, the flat file is left in place untouched (never overwritten) and
the collision is logged with both paths.
Mutation demonstrated: the 7 new tests (MetaStoreMigratesFlatAfFileIntoMetasFolder,
MetaStoreLeavesFlatFileInPlaceWhenMetasDestinationAlreadyExists,
RouteStoreMigratesFlatNavMarkedFileIntoNavsFolderWithMarkerStripped,
RouteStoreMigratesFlatHiddenAutoRouteFileWithMarkerStripped,
RouteStoreLeavesFlatFileInPlaceWhenNavsDestinationAlreadyExists) were run
against the store/VtankProfileDirectory code from the prior commit (no
migration sweep) and failed 4/7 (the other 3 pass vacuously since they only
assert the ABSENCE of cross-contamination, which trivially holds without
any sweep at all) before the MigrateFlatFilesTo*FolderIfNeeded methods were
added. All 632 tests (625 + 7 new) pass after.

Owner decision 2026-09-07: Meta and Nav profiles both use metaf .af and are
told apart by living in two dedicated VtankProfiles subfolders (metas/,
navs/) instead of the flat-directory nav_/--nav_ marker scheme from slice 1
Part A, which was only ever how the owner happened to name files in their
own metas repo. VtankProfileDirectory.ListMetaProfiles/ListNavigationProfiles
now enumerate metas/ and navs/ respectively via a new folder-scoped
EnumerateFolderFileNames helper; the NavMarker constant and the marker
overload of AutoCharacterFileName are deleted. MossTankMetaProfileStore and
MossTankRouteProfileStore build every real storage key with their folder
prefix (CurrentFileName, Select, Create, TryImportLegacy, the legacy-roster
sweep) and strip it back off for display (StripAf/Strip). The .cdf's Nav/Meta
lines (4-5) now carry the folder-relative key ("metas/Name.af",
"navs/Name.af"); AD-122 and the ACDREAM_VTANK_PROFILE_DIR launch-option row
are updated to describe this.
Mutation demonstrated: reverting VtankProfileDirectory.cs,
MossTankMetaProfileStore.cs, and MossTankRouteProfileStore.cs to HEAD~ (the
flat nav_-marker layout) while keeping the updated tests reproduces 8 test
failures (KeyNotFoundException / Assert.True(false) against the new
"metas/…"/"navs/…" keys the tests now expect, e.g.
MetaSaveAcceptsAnAfSuffixedNameWithoutDoublingIt,
MetaAndRouteProfilesWithTheSameNameDoNotCollide,
NavCommandsImportLegacyAndExportAf, MetaCommandsImportLegacyAndExportAf,
MetaRosterSweepConvertsEveryNamedLegacyProfileOnce,
MetaStoreLeavesLegacyJsonUntouchedWhenAfCounterpartExists,
MetaStoreRefusesToSaveADisabledRuleAndKeepsThePriorAfContent,
NavSaveAcceptsAnAfSuffixedNameWithoutDoublingIt) — confirmed by running the
suite immediately after the production-code edit, before the test-file
updates landed. All 625 tests pass after both sides of the change.

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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.

CombatSettings.Rules lives only in MossTank's JSON side-car;
VtankSettingsProfileSerializer preserves the real .usd MyMonsters table
byte-for-byte but never parses it into MonsterRules or regenerates it from
them (VtankSettingsProfileSerializer.cs:24-30). MonsterRules.cs/
MonsterExpression.cs (the rule-grammar evaluator itself) is a faithful,
well-cited port with no material gap — only the real-file round trip is
missing.
Filed TS-86 (temporary stopgap; slice 3 ports the table) and added it as
gap item 6 in docs/research/vtank-kb/03-combat.md section 8 (previously
absent — the existing five gaps are about rule-grammar/priority fidelity,
not about whether the real table round-trips at all). Corrected the TS
section header's stale active-row count (was undercounting by one before
this row) to the actual count. Documentation-only; the parse is
deliberately NOT implemented this round, per the task's explicit scope.

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.

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.

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).

Filed AD-122: VtankProfileDirectory.WriteCharacterBinding writes a real VTank
.cdf's Nav/Meta lines (4-5) as MossTank's own .af (metaf text) names, not
VTank's native binary .nav/.met. When ACDREAM_VTANK_PROFILE_DIR points at a
real installed VirindiTank profile folder for direct interop, that .cdf
names files a real VTank instance cannot load — Settings (.usd) and Loot
(.utl) stay real/binary-compatible; only Nav/Meta went .af-only for slice 1.
Added a warning sentence to the ACDREAM_VTANK_PROFILE_DIR row in
docs/launch-options.md pointing at the register row. Documentation-only;
no code or test changes.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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).

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.
593 MossTank tests passing (was 591).

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).

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).

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.

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.

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
(Plugin|LaunchOptions|RuntimeOptions filter): 135 -> 137. Core.Tests
(Plugin filter): 50/50 (no change, no Core-side edits this item).
