Record the shipped presentation owner, exact frame-handoff lifetime, retail short-frame behavior, current GameWindow metrics, and Slice 3 as the next structural boundary.
Port CPartArray::UpdateParts minimum-count behavior: preserve the prior visual and rigid transforms for setup parts absent from a short authored AnimFrame, including the initial hydrated rest pose.

Route F-key pickup through the same ItemHolder backpack placement entry point as double-click activation so the inventory reserves the destination slot before the request is sent.
Carry local WorldEntity identity through render hits, lighting pulses, and deferred movement actions so GUID reuse cannot target a replacement. Reset all session-owned selection and ItemHolder state and prevent combat auto-target during teardown.
Define the read-only query and stateful interaction ownership boundaries, pin retail ordering and lifecycle invariants, and isolate the GUID-incarnation and pending-pickup defects as #230 and #231 before the mechanical cutover.

Record the passing capped and uncapped connected evidence, coordinator ownership, graceful reconnect contract, current test baseline, and the remaining human-only visual gates. Keep AGENTS.md synchronized with CLAUDE.md and distill the durable reveal-lifecycle lesson into project memory.
Compose destination readiness and lifecycle telemetry behind one App-layer coordinator so login and portal begin, preparation, materialization, visibility, completion, and cancellation cannot drift apart in GameWindow wiring.
Send the active character id, drain until the authoritative server confirmation, then emit retail's zero-sequence connection disconnect with the negotiated receiver iteration. The connected gate now waits for ACE to remove the exact UDP session before reconnecting, eliminating fixed-delay races.
Make initial login and portal arrival consume one WorldRevealReadinessBarrier that joins near-tier mesh publication, destination composite uploads, and collision residency before normal world geometry becomes visible. This ports retail SmartBox's blocking-cell completion edge into the asynchronous client instead of exposing a ground-only login.
Add focused outdoor, indoor, texture, and invalid-claim tests; update the retail pseudocode, architecture, divergence record, issue ledger, roadmap baseline, and synchronized agent guidance.

Add a canonical documentation map, modernize the public README, and align milestone, roadmap, architecture, issue, divergence, and session guidance with the July 20 baseline. Correct the far-teleport residual to issue #153, close visually accepted indicator and terrain-tiling work, record the remaining detail-overlay and build-warning debt, and deprecate the duplicate legacy bug ledger.

Drive turn, movement, jump, and combat through the production InputDispatcher so connected Release testing works without an interactive Windows desktop. Track held automation actions through normal completion and every shutdown path.
Add a seven-destination ACE route with post-liveness memory, allocation, update, fatal-log, outbound-movement, and graceful-close gates. Record dynamic ACE population changes as context instead of a false lifetime oracle, and document the accepted rebaseline.

Restore the named-retail object update order across local, remote, static, projectile, animation, shadow, teleport, and effect lifetimes. Separate authoritative root commits from spatial rebucketing, preserve per-owner hook/FIFO ordering, and remove update-path allocations with exact lifecycle and residency gates.
Add deterministic conformance, adversarial lifetime, GUID-reuse, pending-cell, quaternion, timestamp, and allocation coverage. Release build is warning-free and all 6,446 tests pass with five intentional skips; retail, architecture, and adversarial reviews are clean.

Process animation completion at the retail process_hooks boundary, then run targeting, movement, PartArray completion, and PositionManager in the named UpdateObjectInternal order for local, remote, hidden, and position-less animated objects. Retire TS-42 with deterministic conformance coverage.\n\nCo-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <codex@openai.com>
Capture the deferred configurable-LOD, Linux graphical host, true headless runtime, and multi-session automation direction without changing the active M3 sequence. Reconcile the previous blanket cross-platform exclusion while keeping native macOS graphics uncommitted.

Preserve sub-millisecond frame deltas with a command-local compensated clock so uncapped diagnostic routes do not outrun materialization and settling. Keep sleep boundaries inclusive, wait timeouts strict, and handle long-duration and invalid-delta cases deterministically.
Record the aligned seven-destination connected route with a full turn at every stop. Release build succeeds and all 6,308 tests pass with five intentional skips.

Replace scheduler-quantized software sleeps with a reusable Windows high-resolution deadline timer, expose pacing in the frame profiler, and make shutdown wake every persistent mesh worker without losing the shared signal.
Preserve retail alpha order while using a stable radix, skip duplicate deferred-alpha SSBO packing, pack light sets, cache static selection descriptors, and retire historical material groups at the whole-frame boundary. The fixed dense-Caul sample improved from roughly 9-12 ms CPU to 5.3-6.2 ms without reducing visual quality.
Release build succeeds with zero warnings and all 6,300 tests pass with five intentional skips. Three independent retail, architecture, and adversarial reviews are clean; the post-review connected route remains pending because local ACE is offline.

Port retail's 25-second leave-visibility lifetime over canonical live records, retaining spatially resident and owned entities while using the conservative ACE visibility envelope for nonresident records. Route expiry through the normal generation-safe F747 teardown so animations, effects, physics, and render owners unwind symmetrically.
Replace the append-only modern mesh buffer with coalescing vertex/index ranges and upload each mesh's vertices once instead of once per material. Released zero-reference meshes can now reuse GPU ranges after portal and cache churn.
A connected five-region round trip returned animation ownership to baseline, recreated the starting region on revisit, and held normal FPS. Release build succeeds and all 5,927 tests pass with five intentional skips.

Carry each billboard particle's resident texture handle in the instance ABI so stable retail alpha ordering can batch mixed textures without rebinding and redrawing each short texture run. Keep DAT blend transitions as the only billboard draw boundary.
The connected 0xC95B stress scene improved from 6 FPS / 171 ms to about 153 FPS / 6.6 ms at the same roughly 21,000 visible entities. Release build succeeds and all 5,916 tests pass with five intentional skips.

Queue translucent world GfxObj batches and scene particles in one stable far-to-near stream using transformed DAT sort centers, then drain it at retail's landscape and final-world boundaries. Preserve authored blend, cull, lighting, opacity, and adjacent-only batching so particles behind lifestones are composited through the crystal instead of overpainting it.
Release build succeeds and all 5,914 tests pass with five intentional skips.

Port the retail high/low material-lighting cadence for successful world clicks, keep it instance-scoped in the modern renderer, and restore authored lighting after 0.8 seconds. Correct the selection oracle and pin timing plus per-frame buffer lifecycle with tests.
Co-authored-by: Codex <codex@openai.com>
Replace the projected Setup-sphere rectangle and independent physics-wall ray with retail's render-coupled picker: only visible server-object parts participate, each exact drawing sphere broad-phases the camera-eye ray, and first-in-DAT-order visual polygon hits globally outrank sphere fallbacks.
Replace the devtools-only procedural triangles with the retained gameplay VividTargetIndicator using retail client-enum surfaces 1..4, radar-blip colorization, Setup selection-sphere framing, and the exact eight-pixel viewport clamp.
Release build succeeds with zero warnings and all 5,886 tests pass with five intentional skips.

Keep external-container visibility tied to the signed surface gap between the player and container physics cylinders, matching gmExternalContainerUI's authored UseRadius range watcher. This prevents a valid ViewContents response from being closed at ACE's natural approach endpoint.
Port Position::cylinder_distance and ACCWeenieObject::ObjectsInRange into Core with conformance coverage for 3-D separation, overlap, mode precedence, and inclusive boundaries.
Release build succeeds and all 5,895 tests pass with five intentional skips.

Keep active-combat AutoWield intent through ACE's pre-wield transition and queued trailing peace notice, while allowing explicit combat input to supersede it.
Queue one-shot item interactions until the frame's movement edge has been serialized, so a movement release cannot cancel ACE's server-side corpse approach callback.
Release build succeeds and all 5,890 runnable tests pass with five intentional skips.
Co-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <codex@openai.com>
Port retail's first-slot ShowPendingInPlayer path for double-click loot and carry the current owned-container destination through deferred pickup. Retire the previous ground-container view as soon as a replacement is requested so its range close cannot cancel ACE's active MoveTo chain.
Preserve active-combat weapon intent across ACE's authoritative wand-to-missile stance tail while leaving peace-mode switches unchanged.
Release build succeeds and all 5,885 tests pass with five intentional skips.

Route corpse Use through the shared ItemHolder policy so Stuck corpses open instead of being sent as pickup requests. Restore the framed, horizontally resizable external-container strip and use a compact initial width. Port retail's target-list pending item projection so loot is marked in the chosen inventory slot without changing canonical ownership before the server confirms.
Co-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <codex@openai.com>
Add the ClientUISystem ground-object lifecycle, authoritative root and nested ViewContents projections, replacement and close semantics, and the DAT-authored gmExternalContainerUI strip for chests and corpses.
Route double-click loot and full or partial drag transfers through the shared retail item policy without optimistic external ownership. Remove the incorrect NoLongerViewingContents behavior from owned side packs and retire AP-106/#196.
Release build succeeds and all 5,875 tests pass with five intentional skips.

Resolve DAT-authored particle ranges from the hardware GfxObj, apply retail distance and completed-cell visibility gates, and preserve the exact finite/infinite off-view update semantics. This removes dense-world simulation work without shortening terrain, entity, fog, or streaming distance.
Publish doorway-clipped outdoor cells through a focused frame controller, retain effect cell identity for outdoor statics, reject hidden emitters before particle-slot scans, and offer an explicit opt-in Extended particle range.
Release build succeeds and all 5,857 tests pass with five intentional skips. Retail-conformance, architecture, and adversarial review cycles are clean; connected Aerlinthe visual/performance gate pending.

Reflow selected Helpful/Harmful spell descriptions through the retained retail text shaper, bind their authored 0x10000127 information scrollbar independently from the list scrollbar, and allow display-only text to consume wheel scrolling without becoming selectable.
Format Vitae recovery experience through retail's grouped integer presentation. Release build succeeds and all 5,832 tests pass with five intentional skips.
Co-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <codex@openai.com>
Restore Vitae's omitted penalty paragraph, replace the invented character summary with gmCharacterInfoUI's ordered report and property meanings, preserve authored translucent body surfaces, and initialize the end-session button in its visible Normal DAT state.
Release build and all 5,830 tests pass with five intentional skips. Connected visual gate pending.

Port the authored effect row template, remaining-time and selection details, synchronize the full gmPanelUI child geometry, and route the burden indicator to Character Information panel 3.
Co-authored-by: OpenAI Codex <codex@openai.com>
Port the authored Link Status, Vitae, and Mini Game detail roots and register every indicator page with retail's one-active gmPanelUI owner. Helpful/Harmful and the new pages now replace Inventory, Character, or Magic at one canonical window position while preserving the DAT restore-previous flag.
Correct the retail ping wire to its payload-free request/response, publish measured RTT, and port Vitae recovery XP from the live modifier and player properties. Keep transport packet-loss averaging and mini-game gameplay explicitly tracked under AP-110.
Release build and all 5,814 tests pass with five intentional skips. Connected visual gate pending.
