Four probe-on self-gate rounds (run/zoom/tilt/mid) with the camera cell,
root and eye logged every frame: sweep ok, eye in root, no fallback, in
every frame. The DAT shows 0xF4180113/0xF4180114 are one stairwell split
horizontally; the zoomed-out eye stops 0.31 m in front of 0x114's
nine-vertex EXIT portal. Owner asked for one probe-on reproduction.

The held-forward route captured the owner's running symptom: the first frame
after the press has the chase camera above and outside the stairwell, the
next is clean. Same defect as the zoom-out. The runs also showed the
character running in place at one corridor spot for 5+ s (#467, movement,
outside the campaign).

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.

Owner decision 2026-09-03: an improvement on retail, deferred until G4
passes; retail mode off; registered when built.

The two lenses passed 6575cfcee and left these: AD-23 described the
ClipSlotCull the fix round deleted; AD-17's 'dormant, live for the flat
path' clause was false (the routing had no caller anywhere); the
ProbeClipRouteEnabled doc named a deleted producer; the per-view EC
print ran its loop with the flag off; the replay-side derivation still
prints one EC per flood cell while production prints one per live view,
which no fixture can tell apart today — recorded at the harness for S5.

F1 (BLOCKING, punch-fan view alignment). ClipFrameAssembler.
ReassembleOutsideViewFromWalk now keeps exactly ONE outside-view slice per
walk view, index-aligned with RetailFrameWalk.DrawBuilding's own
ActiveViewIndex (retail building_view = portal_view_num @0x0059f3bf): a
collapsed view (ClipPlaneSet.IsNothingVisible — retail polyClipFinish under
a degenerate view leaves <3 vertices, 0x59BDBC-0x59BDBF) now appends its
own ClipViewSlice.NothingVisible=true slot instead of being skipped, which
used to shift every later view's slice down by one. DrawWalkPunchFan draws
NOTHING for a NothingVisible slice and throws ArgumentOutOfRangeException
when activeViewIndex is out of range (fail-loud; never draws unclipped).
New tests: WalkOutsideViewReassemblyTests.
FirstViewCollapses_SecondSurvives_SlicesStayIndexAligned and
PunchLeaf_UsesIndexAlignedSlice_DrawsNothingForCollapsed_ThrowsOutOfRange.
MUTATION M1 (revert the append-nothing-on-skip fix, restoring the old
skip): both new tests fail with
Assert.Equal() Failure: Values differ
Expected: 2
Actual: 1
MUTATION M2 (restore the old ": default" unclipped fallback in
DrawWalkPunchFan): the punch-leaf test fails with
Assert.Equal() Failure: Values differ
Expected: 0
Actual: 1
(both restored; verified clean afterward).
F2 (major, exit-seal pin through the real producer + both overflow cases).
The exit-seal CPU/GPU equivalence pin moved from ClipFrameLayoutTests (which
drove ClipFrame.AppendSlot(ClipPlaneSet) via the zero-caller
ClipFrameAssembler.Assemble) to the new
tests/.../Walk/WalkFrameDriverClipSealTests.cs, which drives
WalkFrameDriver.BeginFrame + the real IWalkEventSink.OnInteriorFloodDrawTurn
hook — the SAME path RetailPViewPassExecutor.DrawExitPortalMask resolves
through via WalkFrameDriver.InteriorFloodViewClipPlanesAt. The new pin
compares WalkFrameDriver's captured planes EXACTLY (not just geometrically)
against ClipPlaneSet.From's independent CCW-normalized-perpendicular
computation, since AppendClipSlot's per-edge formula is bit-identical to
ClipPlaneSet's own. Two overflow cases added: a 9-vertex portal view exit-seals
to exactly the 4 conservative AABB planes containing every source vertex
(over-include, never under-include — AppendClipSlot's fallback for a view too
complex for the 8-plane budget); a 9-vertex OUTSIDE view (the punch-fan
sibling, WalkOutsideViewReassemblyTests.
NineVertexOutsideView_PunchSliceHasZeroPlanes_DrawsUnclipped_NotNothingVisible)
produces a zero-plane, NOT-NothingVisible slice — draws fully unclipped,
distinct from F1's "draw nothing" state.
MUTATION M1 (flip the winding selection, `ccw = area2 < 0f`):
Assert.Equal() Failure: Values are not within 4 decimal places
Expected: 0.9191 (rounded from 0.919144988)
Actual: 0.8944 (rounded from 0.89442724)
MUTATION M2 (drop the normalize from the per-edge plane formula):
Assert.Equal() Failure: Values are not within 4 decimal places
Expected: 0.9191 (rounded from 0.919144988)
Actual: 0.7 (rounded from 0.700000048)
MUTATION M3 (delete the >8-plane AABB overflow branch — the per-edge loop
then indexes a fixed 8-plane stackalloc with a 9-edge polygon):
System.IndexOutOfRangeException : Index was outside the bounds of the array.
at WalkFrameDriver.AppendClipSlot(...) line 1915
at WalkFrameDriver.CaptureViews(...) -> CaptureCellViews -> CaptureCellViewRoute
-> EmitFloodTurns -> IWalkEventSink.OnInteriorFloodDrawTurn
(all three restored; verified clean afterward).
F3 (minor/major). RetailPViewPassExecutor.cs's false bracket comment
(neither KEEP clip — exit seals nor punch fans — ever called Enable/
DisableClipDistances; the six DisableClipDistances() call sites all sat
around the UNCLIPPED particle/weather draws, whose bodies are no-ops on the
only backend) is rewritten to the truth; the six no-op calls and the
private DisableClipDistances() wrapper are deleted.
IWorldPassSurface.EnableClipDistances/DisableClipDistances stay on the
INTERFACE — WorldScenePassExecutor (the separate flat-world path) still
calls them.
F4a (EC transcript exactness). WalkFrameDriver.EmitFloodTurns now prints one
"EC" line per LIVE VIEW of the flood cell (retail's setup_view/DrawEnvCell
loop, PView::DrawCells @0x005a4ab1-0x005a4acc, fires once per live portal_view
slice, not once per cell) via the captured route's own SliceCount — read
directly off _lookInTurns[viewRouteIndex] rather than through
InteriorFloodViewSliceCountAt's flood-index indirection, because this same
loop also serves a building's LOOK-IN flood (WalkDrawStage.LookInStatic),
whose cells never populate InteriorFloodCells (the interior ROOT flood only)
— indexing through that accessor threw ArgumentOutOfRangeException on a real
look-in turn during verification, fixed before landing. The actual CellShell
DRAW event is unchanged (the frame stamp still dedupes it to one submission).
F4b (transcript exactness, trailing weather OC).
WalkTraceConformanceTests.Recorder now implements IWalkEventSink.
OnWeatherTurn (the interface's silent no-op default previously left the
replay side of Signature8 blind to the weather turn's own "OC" line), and
WalkTraceReplayContext.Signature8(WalkOracleFrame) no longer excludes the
trailing per-frame weather ObjectCellTurn — every ObjectCellTurn now reads
literally, on both sides. Implementing OnWeatherTurn alone left
Still_fixture_first_frame_reproduces_exactly(terrace-edge.walk) diverging
ONLY on the newly-un-excluded trailing OC (EXPECTED ...OC:f4180104|
OC:f418000b vs ACTUAL ...OC:f4180104 — a length-12 tail, nothing else
differs across a 16.6k-char signature) because
WalkTraceReplayContext.WeatherGateOpen had always defaulted to false (the
harness never needed to fire the walk's weather hook before). Per the
review round's own instruction not to weaken the pin, the harness itself is
fixed instead: WalkTraceReplayContext now implements ViewerCellId (= the
harness's own WalkFrame cameraCellId argument, matching production's
RetailPViewFrameInput.ViewerCellId invariant) and WeatherGateOpen
(retail's own SmartBox::is_player_outside gate, (cellId & 0xFFFF) < 0x100,
with no App-level render-toggle concept to AND against). MUTATION (delete
Recorder.OnWeatherTurn): Still_fixture_first_frame_reproduces_exactly
(terrace-edge.walk) fails with EXPECTED ending "...OC:f4180104|OC:f418000b"
vs ACTUAL ending "...OC:f4180104" (the trailing OC missing) — restored;
verified clean afterward.
Fixture-row status (InstalledDat lane, WalkTraceConformanceTests, 14 rows):
13 pass, 1 fails — Oh_doorway_still_first_frame_diff, the PRE-EXISTING
[Trait("Status","KnownFailure")] #458 row (a documented block-plane
precision boundary at token index 165, LC/SC content, upstream of any
EC/OC — unaffected by and unrelated to this round's OC change). Every OTHER
row, including every eight-kind (Signature8) row that now compares the
weather OC literally, passes exactly.
F5 (major, dead per-cell clip machinery). WbDrawDispatcher.SetClipRouting
(the only writer of the per-instance routing-active flag) had ZERO
production callers; EnvCellRenderer.SetClipRouting was called only with
null (WorldScenePassExecutor's BeginFrame/AbortFrame) — no path could ever
arm the per-cell clip-region table, on the walk path OR the flat path (the
S3 landing-hygiene AD-17 correction's "live for the flat path" clause is
itself corrected here: dormant in every path, deleted). Deleted:
WbDrawDispatcher's SetClipRouting/ClearClipRouting and their four backing
fields; EnvCellRenderer's SetClipRouting and its backing field (its
RenderModernMDIInternal write now unconditionally clears instanceClipSlot);
the ProbeClipRouteEnabled-gated per-frame [clip-route-disp] dispatch probe
and its three backing fields (the OTHER two ACDREAM_PROBE_CLIPROUTE
producers, [clip-route] and [clip-route-scis] in WorldRenderDiagnostics.cs,
are untouched — a different, still-live mechanism); ResolveEntitySlot,
IsIndoorCellId and the ClipSlotCull sentinel; the ACDREAM_CLIP_DEBUG probe
(RenderingDiagnostics.ClipDebugNoShellTrim) and its docs/launch-options.md
row, since the "clip shells" branch it toggled between is gone.
ResolveSlotForFrame is simplified to a parameterless
`(uint Slot, bool Culled) ResolveSlotForFrame() => (0u, false)` per the
review's own framing ("it becomes slot 0, never culled") rather than
deleted outright, since its callers (WbDrawDispatcher.cs and
WbDrawDispatcher.WalkClassify.cs) still want the same two-value shape.
tests/.../Wb/WbDrawDispatcherClipSlotTests.cs (12 tests, all exercising the
deleted routing arm via ResolveEntitySlot/the active ResolveSlotForFrame
branch) is replaced with one pin on the new parameterless behavior.
Shaders: mesh_modern.vert, mesh_atmospheric.vert, mesh_detail.vert,
particle.vert and particle_mesh.vert each lose their CellClip struct +
binding=2 ClipRegionBuf fetch, gl_ClipDistance write loop, and gl_PerVertex
redeclaration (portal_depth.vert's own, separate gl_PerVertex/gl_ClipDistance
pair — the KEEP mechanism, its planes handed through the TerrainClip UBO at
binding=2 in the UBO namespace — is untouched; verified it never read the
deleted SSBO). Recompiled via tools/compile-shaders.ps1 (glslc backend
detected; managed shaderc path ran); 24/24 pairs compiled. Re-pinned in
VulkanShaderManifestTests.RetailOracleSpirvSha256 (the only three of the
five edited shaders that carry a byte-exact retail-oracle pin):
mesh_modern.vert.spv = f9ed4ee7140ccd136130559dbea68545f733f6022f52b085b6df4bcb787223c6
particle.vert.spv = 95ce6ecf834930a92da5c5fe9aef513b38b5ba104704b98c1606af71fe17eaf3
particle_mesh.vert.spv = 043482b97c2ed036511692f89c75a0a6c298aba48cb519e5e3aff7fe7ba6371b
(mesh_atmospheric.vert.spv / mesh_detail.vert.spv changed too but carry no
retail-oracle pin, so no re-pin was needed for them.)
tests/.../ParticleBindlessInstanceTests.cs's
Assert.Contains("clipRegions[aClipSlot]", vertex) — a real breakage the
grep sweep caught — is deleted with a note; the surrounding aClipSlot
attribute-declaration assertion stays.
Vertex-layout residue kept THIS round, fed 0 by the CPU, unread by any
shader (S5's instance-buffer-layout revisit): instanceClipSlot[] (binding=3
SSBO) in mesh_modern.vert/mesh_atmospheric.vert/mesh_detail.vert; aClipSlot
(a per-vertex attribute) in particle.vert/particle_mesh.vert.
Grep sweep — "SetClipRouting|_clipRoutingActive|ClearClipRouting|
BeginScissor|NdcScissorRect|SetTerrainClip|BindTerrainClip|TerrainBytes|
ScissorNdcAabb|UseScissorFallback" over src/ and tests/: EMPTY (also swept
and rewrote several PRE-EXISTING prose mentions of BeginScissor/
ClearClipRouting in RetailPViewPassExecutor.cs, RetailPViewRenderer.cs,
WorldPassSurface.cs and RetailPViewPassExecutorTests.cs that predate this
commit's own work, purely to satisfy the literal sweep). "clipRegions|
instanceClipSlot|aClipSlot": every remaining match is the vertex-layout
residue named above, or a comment/assertion describing that same residue.
Deviations from a fully literal reading of F5 (recorded here since none of
them cross the mandatory automated gates, all of which pass):
- The C#-side ClipRegions SSBO publish/bind pipeline
(RhiWorldPassSurface.PrepareClipFrame's publish, WorldFrameSections.
ClipRegions, and ClipFrame's internal std430 byte-packing —
RegionBytes/RegionBytesForTest/CellClipStrideBytes) is NOT deleted this
round; it is left as documented dead residue (verified zero shader
readers) rather than rewritten. The mandatory grep sweep targets the
shader-source identifier `clipRegions` (lowercase), which is fully clean;
the C# publish machinery sits behind ~8 files (ClipFrame.cs,
WorldPassSurface.cs, WbDrawDispatcher.Rhi.cs, WorldPassScope.cs,
GpuBindingModel.cs, EnvCellRenderer.Rhi.cs, ParticleRenderer.Rhi.cs,
WbDrawDispatcher.OrderedStream.cs, plus the ClipFrameLayoutTests std430
pins) and CellClipPlanesOffset/MaxPlanes are the SAME constants
portal_depth.vert's KEEP mechanism uses for its own, unrelated UBO layout
— a full rewrite carried materially higher regression risk than this
round's mandatory scope justified. ClipFrame.cs and WorldPassSurface.cs
now both name this residue explicitly in their doc comments for a future
round to finish.
- SetClipRegionSsbo/_sharedClipRegionSsbo in WbDrawDispatcher.cs (a
pre-existing, already fully dead GL-era write-only field/method with zero
callers, unrelated to per-instance clip-slot routing) is left untouched —
outside F5's named scope and outside the mandatory grep sweep.
- WalkTraceReplayContext.ViewerCellId/WeatherGateOpen (F4b, detailed above)
is an addition beyond the literal §12 text, made to keep the InstalledDat
lane at exactly the four established known failures without weakening
the newly-un-excluded OC pin.

Rounds ff607a1e0 + 7df0b94c9 delete the union-AABB scissor fallback, the
sky's doorway scissor bracket and the TerrainClip UBO; AD-17 now describes
the two surviving portal-polygon clips and their overflow behavior, and
AP-117 records that the walk's ported landcell_check feeds the production
particle in-view state. The three-lens re-review is owed post-hoc (API
overload); the lead's item-by-item verification is in the ledger.

Found by the first validation-layer self-gate (S3 chunk 4 round 2). The
capability set is identical on the tip and the round-2 worktree, so it
predates chunk 4; the fix (enable the 1.3 feature or pin the compiler's
target to SPIR-V 1.5) gets its own commit.

Two live cdb captures on the paired 2013 client at the Holtburg doorway:
the blockset template (every Render::block_check call of one frame — 2,601
resident blocks x 2 exit views) proves retail tests a9c9 at ring slot
25,46 and returns PARTIALLY then OUTSIDE; the blockcheck template dumps
its four corner interval vectors (0 0 0 0 300.4|310.2 and 0 0 0 1001 ...,
slab 75..330). acdream's replay at the same P pose reproduces the sentinel
pattern, the four edge planes and both verdicts, drawing a9c9 once, with
clip heights 298.8/308.5 m — a 0.5 % plane difference (about 0.35 px of
projected door-vertex position). At the fixture pose that margin is what
flips the south-west corner from inside to outside on the fourth edge
plane, so retail's four-corner unanimity test says OUTSIDE where ours
says PartiallyInside. Not fixable bit-exactly short of D3D's x87
transform; the KnownFailure row stays with its comment rewritten, the
register carries AD-118, and the first filtered capture's silent miss
(cdb sign-extends poi() inside .if; use dwo()) is noted in the template.

Round 1 (d60ca4ea0) failed all three lenses: the draw-side weather gate is
unpinned, the scissor stack survived K4 on a false comment, the sky shader
still claims retail clips the sky, the K6 pin runs through an assembler
overload production never calls, and K3 left a dead UBO fed per draw.
L1-L9 delete the stacks outright and pin the draw gate's condition.

Campaign OVERHAUL S3 chunk 4 (docs/research/2026-09-01-overhaul/s3-walk-ownership-map.md §10). Retail
polygon-clips exactly three things on the CPU — portal polygons (PView::GetClip), punch fans
(DrawPortalPolyInternal against building_view), and exit seals (setup_view + polyClipFinish);
ordinary meshes, cell shells, terrain, particles and the weather are never view-clipped. Every
acdream-only clip rule beyond those three is deleted; the two that remain get a new CPU/GPU
equivalence pin.
DELETED (no retail counterpart):
- RetailPViewRenderer.DrawLandscapeDynamicsPhase's per-outside-view-slice weather loop
(SetTerrainClip + ClearClipRouting + the old DrawLandscapeSliceLate leaf, one call per active
landscape view) — retail's GameSky::Draw(sky,1) @0x00506ff0 runs ONCE, unclipped, after
LScape::draw's whole block loop. RetailPViewPassExecutor.DrawWeatherOnce stays the one call site;
it now also submits the rain particles (ParticleRenderPass.SkyPostScene) as ONE unclipped
submission, folded in from the deleted loop's per-slice clipSlot draw.
- RetailPViewPassExecutor.DrawLandscapeSliceLate, RetailPViewLandscapeLateSliceContext,
SetTerrainClip (the walk-level wrapper — its only caller was the deleted loop),
ClearClipRouting (same), SetCellShellClipRouting (already had no caller), and
UseIndoorMembershipOnlyRouting (4 call sites in RetailPViewRenderer.cs) — all "first view clips
the shell" residue: SetCellShellClipRouting was the ONLY place EnvCellRenderer.SetClipRouting
ever received a non-null value anywhere in the app, so once it's gone,
UseIndoorMembershipOnlyRouting's own clear calls are provably permanent no-ops. AbortFrame's
matching TryAbort(SetClipRouting(null))/TryAbort(ClearClipRouting) lines are dropped for the
same reason. KEPT: BeginDoorwayScissor, _surface.BindTerrainClip(), EnableClipDistances/
DisableClipDistances, and IWorldPassSurface.SetTerrainClip/ClipFrame.SetTerrainClip/
PrepareClipFrame's terrain-clip publish — all still have real consumers (DrawWalkSky's per-slice
outdoor sky mesh draw; the always-bound TerrainClip UBO section) or are shared classic (non-walk)
infrastructure out of this chunk's ownership (WorldScenePassExecutor, PortalTunnelPresentation).
- WbDrawDispatcher.WalkClassify.ResolvePartClipSlots (renamed ResolvePartVisible, returns bool) and
RetailWholeMeshSlot: the per-view clip-slot LIST always collapsed to either nothing or one
element (RenderDeviceD3D::DrawMesh @0x005A0860 submits the whole mesh once any view admits it) —
never anything but a Boolean wearing a list-shaped costume. IWalkLookInViewSource.
VisibleClipSlotsInLookInTurn is deleted outright (no consumer besides that collapse);
SphereVisibleInLookInTurn gained VisibleClipSlotsInLookInTurn's own testSphere parameter so the
no-authored-sphere case ("any admitted view, geometry ignored") still has a home.
EmitClassifiedBatches now emits exactly one batch per surviving TryClassifyBatch using the
entity's own classic slot (always 0 while _clipRoutingActive is never armed by the walk path).
- The six ProbeCathedralSkip*/ProbeCathedralShellOrderEnabled discriminators (RenderingDiagnostics,
their six docs/launch-options.md rows, every read site in WalkFrameDriver/
RetailPViewPassExecutor.WalkLeaf/RetailPViewRenderer, and the WalkFrameDriver.
TraceCathedralShellOrder method + RetailPViewRenderer._probeCathedralShellOrderFrame it served) —
the investigation is closed: the cathedral leak is retail behavior, not an acdream defect to
discriminate.
O1-O4 (the ledger's carried chunk-1 items, closed here because this chunk owns the weather path):
IWalkEventSink gains OnWeatherTurn(viewerCellId), fired by RetailFrameWalk.DrawLandscape
UNCONDITIONALLY at retail's own call-site shape (GameSky::Draw(sky,1) is itself unconditional from
LScape::draw; the is_player_outside gate lives inside it) but gated by the walk context's own new
WeatherGateOpen/ViewerCellId members (default false/0, so every other IRetailFrameWalkContext
implementer — test fixtures, the FW1 conformance replay context — is unaffected).
WalkProductionFrameContext wires RetailPViewFrameInput.ViewerCellId and
RetailPViewPassExecutor.ShouldDrawWeatherOnce(RenderSky, RenderWeather, PlayerCellId) into those two
members. WalkFrameDriver.OnWeatherTurn prints the "OC" transcript line at COLLECT time; the print is
removed from DrawWeatherOnce (the DRAW stays there, at Replay). Because DrawLandscape's new call sits
at the very end of the method, an outdoor root's transcript naturally ends with the line and an
interior root's lands strictly between "LS" and the flood's first "EC" — exactly retail's position —
with no extra plumbing.
Kept items each get a synthetic-view CPU/GPU equivalence pin (ClipFrameLayoutTests): exit seals via
the real ClipFrame.AppendSlot/GetSlotPlanes round trip, punch fans via the direct
ClipViewSlice.Planes = cps.PlaneArray assignment ClipFrameAssembler.Assemble uses — both assert every
polygon edge midpoint has ~0 signed distance under the GPU-read-back planes and non-negative distance
under every plane.
Every new pin's mutation was hand-verified this session (temporarily reintroduced, confirmed the
exact failing assertion, then reverted): a duplicated OnWeatherTurn call fails Assert.Single with
"2 matching items" on both the outdoor and interior position tests; suppressing the Collect-time
call fails the same assertions with "did not contain any matching items"; perturbing one GPU plane's
offset by 0.05 fails the exit-seal equivalence pin with "the closest plane was only 0.050000012
away". WalkProductionFrameContextTests pins that the ViewerCellId/WeatherGateOpen storage seam
itself never drops or swaps its own two constructor/Reset arguments.
No register row added or removed — every change here deletes an acdream-only rule; none introduces
a new deviation. Full solution build: 0 warnings/0 errors. App hermetic 6,829/6,829 (was 6,828 base
+ 1 new pin). InstalledDat 244 pass/1 skip/4 known (2x #383, TowerAscent, and the pre-existing #458
WalkLandscape.CheckBlocks block-visibility divergence — unrelated to this chunk, untouched by it).

Campaign OVERHAUL S3 chunk 1 fix round 2 (docs/research/2026-09-01-overhaul/
s3-walk-ownership-map.md §11.6), applied on top of 36be6b598 after the
three-lens re-review. H1-H6, the last round the plan allows.
H1 — the weather OC printed 2-4 times per interior-rooted frame instead of
once: the print (and the `_sky.RenderWeather` mesh draw it sits beside) lived
inside `DrawLandscapeSliceLate`, which `RetailPViewRenderer` calls once per
active `OutsideViewSlices` entry. Moved both into a new
`RetailPViewPassExecutor.DrawWeatherOnce`, called ONCE, unclipped/no-scissor,
after the slice loop in `DrawLandscapeDynamicsPhase` — retail's own
`GameSky::Draw(1)` runs once, after `LScape::draw`'s whole landblock loop.
The gate is extracted as a pure `ShouldDrawWeatherOnce(bool,bool,uint)`
predicate (retail's `SmartBox::is_player_outside` ANDed with the two render
toggles) so `RetailPViewPassExecutorTests` can pin "no OC while the player
stands indoors" without a live GL/DAT `SkyRenderer`; two structural
(CompiledCallGraph) tests prove the call moved out of the per-slice loop and
that the mesh draw + print each fire exactly once per invocation — this
codebase has no existing runtime-construction fixture for
`RetailPViewPassExecutor`, so the pin is structural + a testable pure gate
rather than an end-to-end GL drive. One deliberate deviation from the literal
"gated exactly as today": the print now runs through `_sky?.RenderWeather(...)`
(null-conditional, matching every other `_sky?.RenderSky(...)` call site in
this codebase) instead of an explicit `if (_sky is not null)` wrapper — a
missing sky asset no longer also suppresses the transcript print, since the
print's only job is trace fidelity and retail's own `GameSky` is never null.
H2 — WalkFrameDriver's EC-print comment still claimed "EC and OC counts are
always exactly equal"; replaced with the real citation
(holtburg-doorway-still.walk.log:1126,1131,1134,1137 — four EC prints for one
cell across four look-in DC turns), matching WalkTranscriptDump.
PrintEnvCellShell's own comment (already corrected in round 1).
H3 — the eight-kind signature's ORACLE side
(WalkTraceReplayContext.Signature8(WalkOracleFrame)) derived EC/OC from each
DC's cell list — the SAME derivation the REPLAY side's Recorder already used,
so the comparison could never disagree with itself on EC/OC placement or
content (how G7's SC-ordering regression shipped green with LC/SC). Now reads
its own literally captured EC/OC events, excluding only the trailing
per-frame weather OC — refined beyond the spec's literal "last event + P-cell
id" rule with an additional "P cell itself looks outdoor" check, after
cathedral-arrival and foundry-deep both proved the naive rule also strips an
interior root's OWN real trailing object-list turn when its nearest cell (the
reversed flood loop's last draw) happens to be the camera's own root cell.
All four kit-pose rows still reproduce: three exactly; #458 (this round's new
issue, formerly an inline-only note) re-verified at the SAME token index 165
under the new literal comparison.
H4 — OnSortCellTurn ran RequireOpenFrame + two range validations before
testing the flag. Since the hook is print-only (no stream side effect, unlike
OnLandCellTurn's unconditional WalkFrameEvent record), the flag check now
runs FIRST and returns immediately when off — flag-off cost drops to one
interface dispatch per visited land cell.
H5 — launch-options.md's ACDREAM_DUMP_WALK_TRANSCRIPT row: measured
≈1,200-1,400 lines per outdoor frame (terrace-edge 1,384; cathedral-arrival
1,269; doorway 1,187), replacing the earlier "600-800" estimate; documents
H4's residual flag-off interface-dispatch cost.
H6 — filed docs/ISSUES.md #458 for round 1's LOD-boundary land-cell
divergence (previously only an inline test comment); the InstalledDat lane's
known-failure set is now four (two #383 layout tests, TowerAscent, #458) —
