Publish the exact completed walk landscape set as the typed retained particle-view product. Apply retail CLandCell membership versus constant-true non-null CEnvCell eligibility while preserving the x87 distance and AP-116 behavior.
Delete the null-root terrain visibility reconstruction and the dead drawable-cell point-light feedback chain. Retire AP-117, correct AP-85 and AD-21, and keep directional shadows, building degrade, AP-232, probes, RHI, shaders, and DAT outside this chunk.
Automated return: Release 0 warnings/0 errors; Core VFX 111/111; App particle/frame/renderer/terrain 146/146; warmed production allocation 1/1 at 0 B. First official hermetic artifact s5-c1-hermetic-20260904 is preserved at 16759/16760 with only the stale 162-row assertion; after the bounded 161 correction, exact pin 1/1 and fresh s5-c1-hermetic-corrected-20260904 16760/16760. InstalledDat 385 pass, 10 documented failures, 1 documented skip, no new identity.
Mutation 1: making EnvCell eligibility set-dependent first failed ParticleSystemTests.cs:553 Assert.True, expected true actual false. Mutation 2: making outdoor eligibility constant true first failed ParticleSystemTests.cs:559 Assert.False, expected false actual true.
Mutation 3: feeding the diagnostic union first failed WorldSceneRendererTests.cs:279 HashSet equality, expected [16842755], actual [16843008, 16842755]. Mutation 4: restoring CollectVisibleCells first failed TerrainParticleCellVisibilityTests.cs:37 and named TerrainModernRenderer.cs.
Mutation 5: restoring ObserveDrawableCells first failed TerrainParticleCellVisibilityTests.cs:37 and named WorldRenderFrameBuilder.cs. Mutation 6: changing the inclusive boundary from <= to < first failed ParticleSystemTests.cs:519 Assert.True, expected true actual false.

Disclose that both official c3b artifact sets were captured pre-commit on the restored uncommitted implementation tree at parent a0523e605 with WorktreeDirty=true. Reconcile the transcript status entry as transient mutation-worktree dirtiness rather than an active gate mutation.
Narrow verification: both summary identities match; both 30-entry SHA256SUMS manifests verify with zero mismatches; base, implementation tip, contract HEAD, and worktree transcript blobs are c755c1379f; the hermetic TRX source-truth pin passed; diff-check and packet-only scope passed.

Remove the dead classic-group CachedBatch/InstanceGroup sort-center sidecar and its cache, append, reset, and diagnostic-digest plumbing. Remove the discarded camera parameter chain from grouped alpha deferral and dispatcher submission diagnostics while preserving walk/particle CYpt keys, FIFO submission ordinals, and opaque camera distance.
Add production-facing reflection/source pins for the deleted shapes and camera chain, retained per-cell and opaque owners, the exact three AlphaFlushCounts reasons, and deleted alpha-order symbols. Update directly affected cache/digest/group lifecycle tests and record the complete section 22 result.
Gates: Release 0W/0E; focused App 132/132 plus Core 29/29; new pins 4/4; real allocation pins 2/2 at 0 B; shaders 32/32; hermetic 16755/16755; InstalledDat exactly 385 pass, 10 documented fail, 1 skip; diff-check clean.
Mutations: InstanceGroup and CachedBatch sidecars fail their Assert.Null pins; Defer and digest camera parameters fail method-shape pins; false count prose fails the exact-reason pin; RetailAlphaOrdering resurrection fails the deletion pin. Each was restored independently before the final matrix.

Correct packet section 18.7 mutation 9: renaming AP-241 first fails the earlier AP-table-boundary Assert.True with rowIndex=-1; the later Assert.Single is not reached. Advance only the S4-c3a ledger row to the owner-authorized evidence-exception review.
This commit explicitly supersedes the false mutation-9 sentence recorded in historical candidate commit 44e2bc227b without rewriting or amending that commit. It changes no other c3a evidence or renderer behavior.
Narrow mutation: AP-241 rename first failed at line 329 with 'AP-241 row must be inside the AP table before the TS section; rowIndex=-1, AP=[275116,751256).'. The register row was restored byte-identically and the same isolated test passed 1/1. Diff-check passed; only packet and plan changed; no graphical client.

Retain the GfxObj-authored SortCenter independently from the rendered AABB center and use its scaled, oriented world point for billboard/mode-2-5 CYpt. Keep the visual center unchanged.
Reserve prepared source payload only at Append, roll back the exact tail once on false or exception, cap retained preparation at 3000 CLIP plus 3000 ALPHA, preserve immediate duplicates, account the bounded scratch, and correct the static-record ordering comment. The lead-authorized plan edit records candidate 44e2bc227b's retail FAIL and this section 19 result.
Gates: Release solution build 0 warnings/0 errors; focused particle/driver/queue/order/bounds 95/95; register boundary/count 1/1; real allocations 2/2 at 0 B; shader/manifest 32/32; one-shot hermetic 16751/16751; InstalledDat 385 pass/10 documented fail/1 skip; diff-check pass. No graphical client.
Mutations: rendered pos first failed distance expected 40 actual 116; AABB center expected 40 actual 116; dropped size expected 40 actual 65; dropped orientation expected 40 actual 160; eager reservation first failed Assert.Empty with one payload; omitted false rollback first failed Assert.Single with two payloads; omitted exception rollback first failed Assert.Empty with one payload; removed caps first failed prepared count expected 6000 actual 6002.
Evidence note: the first ordinary InstalledDat filter produced 385 pass/2 expected fail/1 skip but excluded the eight required KnownFailure rows; the separate inclusive no-retry artifact produced the exact documented 10-failure set. Initial test fixture compilation/analyzer setup failures are recorded in packet section 19.5.

Reconstruct one combined static/dynamic object-part stream for each ordinary outdoor or interior cell, compute authored SortCenter CYpt keys, and stable-sort far to near before projecting opaque and delayed subsets. Prepare real cell-particle records at the leaf, preserve every S4-c2 router outcome, and merge object and particle delayed records by retained key before either source appends to the unchanged CLIP/ALPHA FIFO lists. Cell turns remain cell-major; equal cross-source ties are deterministically object-first.
File AP-241 and AP-242 for the remaining separate opaque/row-5 channels and unrepresented equal-key common ordinal. File AP-243 for the paired-binary correction: retail shares the cell CYpt/heading beyond 50 m while this bounded port always uses the more exact authored per-part center. Pin 162 active AP rows and correct world-alpha and AlphaFlushCounts prose.
Lead-approved scope clarification: RetailPViewPassExecutor.WalkLeaf.cs and RetailPViewPassExecutor.cs are the minimum existing production leaf adapter and thin particle-prepare forwarder omitted by the literal Walk/Wb file list. They contain no router, queue, mask, state, depth, or flush behavior; relocating them would create an artificial seam.
Gates: Release solution build 0W/0E; shader/manifest 32/32; focused production 210/210; real allocation 3/3 at 0 B; one-shot hermetic 16743/0/0 across 14 assemblies; InstalledDat 385 pass/10 documented fail/1 skip with all six AlphaFlushSites passing; git diff --check PASS. Initial no-restore solution build failed NETSDK1004 for 42 missing scratch assets; one solution restore preceded the official build.
Mutation proof, each restored before final gates:
1. Reverse comparator: authored-center order expected [202,101], actual [101,202].
2. Move ties left: multipart/subset order expected [11,12,21,22], actual [22,21,12,11].
3. Restore static/dynamic blocks: expected [2,3,1], actual [3,1,2].
4. Use entity origin: authored-center order expected [202,101], actual [101,202].
5. Restore particle tail: expected [Wb,Particle,Wb,Particle], actual [Wb,Wb,Particle,Particle].
6. Scope-global sort: first cell model X expected 5, actual 50.
7. Restore dead camera parameter: SubmitWalkAlphaInstance parameter count expected 2, actual 3.
8. Restore stale global-queue prose: exact Assert.DoesNotContain failure on distance-sorts one shared queue.
9. Remove AP-241 identity: Assert.Single found no matching row.
10. Allocate in real merge: expected 0 B, actual 3072 B.

Replaces the single scope-global distance-sorted RetailAlphaQueue with
retail's own two independent FIFO lists (CLIP/ALPHA, capacity 3000 each,
D3DPolyRender::AddMeshToAlphaList's exact append-only/capacity-drop
behavior — Ghidra-verified 2026-09-04), routed by a new
RetailAlphaMeshRouter porting DrawMesh's five-row immediate/delayed
branch table and ConstructMesh's subset-mask formula as pure functions,
and drained at retail's four normal-world FlushAlphaList sites
(DrawBuilding/DrawBlock/PView::DrawCells/RenderNormalMode) under the
exact Ghidra-verified no-op predicate (both counts strictly below
threshold*3000). A new WalkFrameEventKind.SortCellExit /
IWalkEventSink.OnSortCellExit / IWalkFrameLeafRenderer.FlushSortCellExit
fires once per admitted land-block cell for DrawBlock's 0.75f valve,
pinned by a dedicated far/near ordering test in RetailFrameWalkTests.cs.
WbDrawDispatcher's two submit sites and ParticleRenderer's one route
through the router; since none of the three ever draws during the Sky
leaf, installs a detail surface, or sets MultiPassAlpha, rows 1/2/4/5
are provably unreachable there and the call sites assert loudly rather
than building unexercisable immediate-draw plumbing. FlushFartherThan,
RetailAlphaOrdering.ComputeViewerDistance, and every viewerDistance
argument on the submit path are deleted.
Scope note (packet s4-depth-alpha-packet.md §10): C4 (routing EnvCell's
transparent shell batches through the shared queue) was not attempted —
EnvCell draws one per-cell MultiDrawIndexedIndirect call with no
per-subset deferred-replay abstraction, and building one without visual
verification (no graphical client in this worktree) was judged out of
this bounded chunk's scope. AP-34 is therefore retired and replaced by
two narrower rows rather than deleted outright: AP-236 (the carried-
forward EnvCell-immediate residual) and AP-237 (a newly identified gap:
TranslucencyKind.AlphaBlend can arise from either retail's Alpha/
Translucent bits, mask 0x02/ALPHA, or the Translucent+ClipMap "cloud"
override, mask 0x08/CLIP — GroupKey doesn't retain the raw bit to tell
them apart, so the router always picks ALPHA; only known example is
cloud GfxObj 0x01004C35). Both are compositing-order-only divergences,
never blend/visual ones.
Mutation checks (each applied, confirmed failing, then reverted):
- FIFO drain order reversed -> 5 RetailAlphaQueueTests fail (order).
- FlushAlphaList `<` -> `<=` -> boundary/scratch tests fail (2250 case
reads drained=0 instead of 2250).
- Capacity check loosened (3000 -> 6000) -> overflow-drop test fails
(TryAppend returns true, PendingCount reads 3001).
- IsFirstForList forced true -> flag test fails once inspected on the
pre-flush two-entry snapshot (the post-flush single-survivor version
of this test was vacuous and rewritten).
- Router row 3 condition inverted -> both the hand-traced Theory (6
cases) and the 160-cell independent-truth-table brute force fail (20
mismatches).
- SortCellExit emitted before OnLandscapeCellTurn instead of after ->
RetailFrameWalkTests ordering pin fails ("SCX must immediately follow
its own cell's SC").
- Prepare-per-list instead of prepare-once-combined -> the CLIP/ALPHA
boundary batching test throws (index out of range).
Gates: Release build 0 warnings/0 errors. Hermetic lane (Lane!=Installed
Dat&...&Status!=KnownFailure) 6855/6855 passed. InstalledDat lane 249
passed / 10 failed — exactly the 4 pre-existing failures (#383 x2
LayoutImporter, TowerAscent KnownFailure, #458 Oh_doorway_still
KnownFailure) plus 6 NEW KnownFailure Facts
(AlphaFlushTranscript_*_MatchesRetailFrame2, one per capture) extending
this gate from PM/PC to AM/FL: the flush SITE+THRESHOLD sequence matches
the capture exactly for all six poses (including zero SortCellExit
drains in every capture, confirming the 0.75 valve is inert at these
scene complexities in both retail and this replay); the drained-COUNT-
per-list dimension diverges because this hermetic harness (matching the
existing PM/PC gate's own EmptyAlphaDepthWorldData design) carries no
live GfxObj/particle content, so every observed count reads (0,0)
against retail's real per-frame volume — both sequences quoted in full
per pose in the packet's new §10. Shader classes (VulkanShaderDescriptor
ContractTests/VulkanShaderManifestTests/RenderPackSpirvValidatorTests)
32/32 passed.

Record attempt 1's shader-source-hash contract conflict and permit only the deterministic manifest/paired vertex-SPIR-V closure needed by the required comment correction.
Start attempt 1/5 as an evidence-and-comment-only repair of a094bf2b7. Preserve behavior, assertions, shader/SPIR-V, register, package, sequential review, and no-landing-before-dual-PASS constraints.
Record a094bf2b7 as behaviorally retail-clean but unlanded because the binding evidence/prose contract failed. Preserve the sequential-review stop: the production lens did not run, no graphical gate ran, and G3/G4 remain unpassed.
Record the owner override after the required stop and bind the one-attempt repair to exact EnvCell pass membership, retail CLIP state, bounded source scratch, and production-path discriminators. Keep G3/G4 unpassed and the implementation unlanded pending dual review.
The 'empty plane under fog' frame the S4-c1 capture-pose self-gates produced
at frame 15 is the terrain seen from below by a falling player, not a draw
change: the camera probe holds playerCell=0xA9B4013F at (134.07,17.36) while
z drops 96 -> -20 m after materialization. The S3-state run had seated the
same request outdoors in 0xA9B40029 and stood. Placement is not the campaign's
domain; the gate pose is moved so the G3 frame is deterministic and the
original pose is kept in the issue as the reproduction. #462 recurrence on
the pre-S4 control build noted.

The two-list/router/flush core of 048d5b12f is exact at the bytes; the
failures are at the call sites (a data-driven row 5 turned into a throw;
detail-surface input hardcoded false while the drain applies detail),
the register (the structurally empty CLIP list is undeclared; AP-237's
example is wrong; AP-34 not retired by convention), the first-for-list
quantifier, the all-KnownFailure gate, and the skipped C4 that turns out
to be bounded.

Written for a fresh session on another account: read order, exact tips and
worktrees, what S1-S4-c1 landed with their proof, how to find the state of
the chunk 2 implementer dispatched this morning, the #464 attribution plan

job once ACE is up), the Holtburg doorway frame read, tooling gotchas, and a

Sixteen DrawPortalPolyInternal attempts per frame, vertex-identical to
acdream's sixteen collect-time punches; twelve lie entirely on the local
y=12 plane and are rejected by the ±12 guard in both clients, so the hall
building's doorways are never punched in either.

Root 0xF4180114 with seven outside views; retail admits the same seven
hall building-portal groups in the same order as acdream, yet shows the
solid far face above the arch. The fifth transcript pose for S4.

Read-only decomp + real-DAT replay: eleven sweep/root differences, each
unreachable at the pose or more constrained than retail; the replay seats
the pivot in 0xF4180114, stops the boom on its east pier at y=16.448, and
the walk from that root floods 114/113/112 with seven exit views. The
owner's probe launch line now also sets ACDREAM_PROBE_FACILITY_STAIRS.

Drafted from the five alphadepth captures (10,556 AM lines, every clip=0;
FL by return address 13,705 / 309 / 18 / 23) and the OH1 alpha-list
contract. Dispatch waits for S4-c1 to land.

The round-0 retail and production lenses both found the guard's
quantifier inverted (the lead's paraphrase); the production lens's DAT
scan found 2,163 exit polygons lying entirely on a ±12 plane, which makes
the guard the likely mechanism behind retail's never-sealed seam family.
The PM/PC transcript comparison becomes the chunk's own gate.

The S4-c1 retail lens caught the lead's paraphrase inverting retail's
predicate (any vertex on any plane vs every vertex on the same plane);
the contract and T2 now state the decomp's four per-plane predicates.
