Opus dual-lens review of CT6 (ec50455a) found 1 blocker, 4 should-fix, 5
notes. All applied:
BLOCKER B1 — the shared gmPanelUI host (0x100005FE) IS retail's own
outer window frame, not a content element: its authored 310/372/310/1000
already include the 5px bevel on every side. RetailWindowFrame.Mount was
adding the NineSlice wrapper's OWN 10px chrome inset on top of that
already-chrome-inclusive source, clamping MinWidth to 320 while the
window's actual mounted outer width stayed 310 — silently below its own
minimum until RetailWindowManager.ResizeTo forcibly widened it despite
ResizeX=false. Fixed with a new
RetailWindowFrame.Options.DatConstraintSourceIsOuterFrame opt-out
(chrome inset = 0 for constraint resolution only, value stays
DAT-sourced); MountCharacter sets it true. Mounted clamp is now exactly
the host's four raw values: width fixed 310, height 372..1000. Added a
mount-time invariant (throws if the mounted outer extent falls outside
its own just-computed clamp) that would have caught this at the first
test run.
S4 (campaign-lead ruling) — the window must MOUNT at retail's authored
default, outer 372 (content 362, matching the host's own content parent
0x10000180), not 0x2100002E's own 300x600 content-authoring canvas
(which produced a stale 610px default pre-fix: 600 + 10 chrome inset).
372 is exactly the host's own authored MinHeight — retail opens at its
resize floor and can only be dragged taller. MountCharacter now sets
ContentHeight=362f explicitly. At this default the 9 attribute/vital
rows (180px) overflow the 160px list immediately — retail-correct, not
a regression.
S2 — 0x1000023E and 0x10000533 both author property 0x79
(HideWhenDisabled) TRUE (fixture-verified: BoolValue=true on both). A
fitting list HIDES the scrollbar entirely; it does not draw a full-track
"disabled" thumb. The code was already correct; four wrong descriptions
(plan ledger, CharacterStatController comment, CT7 script, test comment)
are corrected, plus a new IsPresentationVisible assertion pair in the
resize test.
S3 — CharacterTitlesController's `if (listBox.LayoutPolicy is null)`
Anchors fallback was unreachable on both the real DAT and the fixture
(0x10000532/0x10000539 both author HasOriginalParentSize=true, so
LayoutPolicy is always assigned). Deleted; added an InstalledDatFact pin
guarding the deletion against DAT drift.
N4 — renamed NineSlice_ChatShapedConstraints_... to
NineSlice_ContentShapedConstraints_InsetArithmeticClampsProgrammaticResize
(it tested inset arithmetic on a content-shaped source, not chat's real
contract) and added a true chat-contract pin mounting Chrome=Imported
with chat's real 300/100/2000/2000 constraints, asserting no inset
applies.
N5 — corrected the "nothing inferred, no register row" sentences in the
ground-truth doc and plan ledger: they were false pre-fix (the mounted
clamp WAS an inferred double-counted composition); true now that B1
removes the composition.
CT7 script §4 rewritten with exact clamps (no "≈"), the corrected
default-overflow scrollbar behavior, and an absolute starting-height
statement.
Verified: full hermetic solution suite green (15,441 tests, Release,
Lane exclusions per the release gate), InstalledDat lane green across
the whole solution (414 tests, ACDREAM_RUN_INSTALLED_DAT_TESTS=1,
Status!=KnownFailure) including two new pins
(TitlesListAndPage_AuthorHasOriginalParentSize,
Imported_ChatContract_ClampsAtAuthoredBoundsWithNoChromeInset).

CT6 (Campaign CT slice 6): the resize clamp source is the SHARED
gmPanelUI host (0x100005FE in LayoutDesc 0x2100006E), not 0x2100002E's
own root and not the Character/Skills slot 0x1000018E either — live
probe confirmed the host authors MinWidth=MaxWidth=310 (fixed — no
horizontal Resizebar authored), MinHeight=372, MaxHeight=1000, and that
the bottom Resizebar (0x10000660) and top Dragbar (0x1000065C) are
direct children of the host, not the content parent. Decomp chain:
UIElement_Resizebar::StartMouseResizing @0x0046B7E0 calls
UIElement::StartResizing(this->GetParent(), ...), stashing drag state on
that parent; UIElement::MouseResizeElement @0x00461130 then reads
GetAttribute_Int(this, 0x3C..0x3F) off that same element every
mouse-move.
RetailUiRuntime.MountCharacter now imports the host element and passes
it as RetailWindowFrame.Options.DatConstraintSource, matching the
existing MountSideVitals pattern.
CharacterStatController.RebuildActiveList now wraps BOTH the Attributes
and Skills tabs' rows in the same UiScrollablePanel viewport (previously
only Skills got one; Attributes rows had no clipping/scrolling and the
shared scrollbar was force-hidden — owner report item 2). The shared
scrollbar is now always bound + visible; UiScrollbar's own
IsPresentationVisible/IsModelDisabled already draw the correct
full-track "disabled" thumb when content fits. This surfaced and fixed
a real #372/#412-class anchor-baseline bug: the viewport's
Left|Top|Bottom anchor was capturing its baseline margins lazily on its
own first ApplyAnchor call, which happens AFTER the ListBox has already
grown from its raw DAT height to its mounted height, permanently
capping the viewport short on every later resize. Fixed with an eager
CaptureCurrentAnchorBaseline() call, mirroring UiTemplateListBox
.Viewport's own lazy getter.
CharacterTitlesController.Bind gained the same defensive
Anchors = Left|Top|Bottom fallback for the Titles ListBox that
CharacterStatController already had (a no-op on the real DAT — both the
Titles page and its ListBox already carry a real authored LayoutPolicy
that stretches correctly).
Standardization audit: UiElement.MinWidth/MinHeight/MaxWidth/MaxHeight,
set once at RetailWindowFrame.Mount, are the ONLY clamp fields — read
identically by interactive drag, RetailWindowManager.ResizeTo, and
RetailWindowLayoutPersistence's restore clamp. No gaps found; no
register row (every number is a live-probed authored DAT value or a
structural correctness fix, nothing inferred).
Tests: CharacterStatControllerTests
.CharacterWindow_ResizesYWithinAuthoredHostClamp_AndReflowsListAndScrollbar,
CharacterTitlesControllerTests
.TitlesList_ReflowsWithWindowResize_AndScrollbarOverflowFlips,
RetailWindowFrameTests
.NineSlice_ChatShapedConstraints_ClampProgrammaticResizeAtAuthoredBounds
(shared-mechanism regression pin), CharacterPanelLiveDatTests
.PanelHost_AuthorsFixedWidthAndBottomOnlyResizeContract (InstalledDat
pin). Existing attribute-row tests updated from list.Children to
Descendants(list) for the new nested-viewport shape (the pattern skill
rows already needed).

Applies the Opus dual-lens review corrections to CT1's DAT ground-truth
research (docs/research/2026-08-24-campaign-ct-dat-ground-truth.md):
- Window constraints (BLOCKER): replaced the "likely a hardcoded
ResizeTo/SetMinSize" guess with the verified mechanism —
UIElement::ResizeTo clamps only via element attributes 0x3C-0x3F,
nothing writes them at runtime, and retail resizes the SHARED
gmPanelUI host (LayoutDesc 0x2100006E, slot 0x1000018E) rather than
0x2100002E's own content root. Flags the unresolved 300x600-vs-300x362
size tension for CT3/CT6 and marks the host elements NOT PROBED by
CT1.
- RowHighlightSprite upgraded from a flagged hedge to a SEALED VERDICT:
the stat row's selected-state media is 0x06000F93
(gmAttributeUI::UpdateSelection -> InfoRegion::SetState on template
0x10000248), not 0x06001397 (which is legitimately the spellbook
row's separate selected-overlay mechanism). Falsifies the matching
comment in CharacterStatController.cs and dated-corrects the older
2026-06-26 doc at the spot that originated the wrong sprite id.
- Replaced the "18px gutter + 7px = 25px" derived story with the bare
authored rectangles (the numbers don't compose cleanly: 300-281=19,
and the 282px row overlaps the 281px scrollbar band by 1px) — CT5
must implement the authored numbers directly, never a derived
listWidth-18 formula.
- Plan doc: corrected the UpdateButtons ghost rule (no selection ->
Ghosted, not "ghosts when selected == current") and added the
AddTitleToList row-write contract for CT3.
- Pins: CharacterPanelLiveDatTests now honors ACDREAM_DAT_DIR first
(matching InstalledDatFactAttribute and its sibling live-DAT test
classes), hoists five vacuous bare-foreach assertions to counted
.ToList() pins, and adds the stat ListBox + scrollbar rect pins that
CT5/CT6 depend on.
- Doc hygiene: marked several probe-session observations (header
geometry "identical" claim, 0x06004CC2 characterization, the
master-map/category-map dump) as unpinned inference vs. committed
fact, corrected the 0x1000052D "throwaway container" mislabel, and
stated the header table's parent-relative coordinate frame.
- Recorded the CT5 gold this round found: InfoRegion::InfoRegion's
icon-DID lookup (a third GetDIDByEnum consumer, category
0x10000002) and gmSkillUI::RebuildSkillList's section-header order
confirmation, plus the RowHeight=22-vs-authored-20 divergence for
attribute rows.
Verified: ACDREAM_RUN_INSTALLED_DAT_TESTS=1 CharacterPanelLiveDatTests
filter 9/9 green; hermetic App suite filter (CI's Lane exclusion list)
6111/6111 green. No production code changed.

Campaign CT slice CT1 (docs/plans/2026-08-24-character-panel-parity-campaign.md):
establishes the authored ground truth for LayoutDesc 0x2100002E that CT2-CT6
build against, so those slices port against verified DAT facts instead of
guessing. No production code changed.
Header findings: the PK line is authored pure white (the CT4 bug is in
CharacterStatController's runtime color choice, not a DAT gap); the level
color is a pale-gold (1, 0.949, 0.498) WITH an authored outline, diverging
from the current hardcoded Gold constant. The stat ListBox's row-template
list (LayoutDesc 0x21000045) is unreachable via the whole-layout
ImportInfos overload (the #375 same-layout template-list skip filter) --
the targeted ImportInfos(dats, layoutId, elementId) overload is required,
same as UiTemplateListBox's TemplateResolver already uses. The shared
attribute/skill row template (0x10000248) authors a 20x20 icon flush at
X=0 (current code: 16x16 at X=4), fixed 150px/100px name/value columns at
X=25/X=175 (current code: a width-fraction split), and a 7px gap between
the value's right edge and the row's own edge -- the scrollbar-gutter
margin the owner reported missing. The Titles page roster, row template
(LayoutDesc 0x2100005E), and window constraints are also pinned; the
character window's root authors NO min/max size properties at all (unlike
chat's self-contained window layout), and RetailUiRuntime.MountCharacter
never wires DatConstraintSource -- correcting the plan's "already in-tree"
claim for CT6.
Also derives and pins the full CharacterTitleTable::GetCharacterTitleFromID
chain (title id -> EnumMapper(0x22000041) canonical name -> compute_str_hash
-> StringTable(0x2300000E) localized text), resolved via the two-level
DBObj::GetDIDByEnum master-map indirection (0x25000000 -> category map ->
target DID) and verified end to end against ACE's CharacterTitle.WarMage=13
-> "War Mage". This independently cross-validates RetailKeyNames' existing
0x2300000A/0x2300000B/0x23000007 constants, which turn out to be the same
category-4 map's enum 4/5/3 entries.
