Publish prepared GfxObj, Setup, CellStruct, and EnvCell collision records without retaining their parsed DAT BSP, polygon, vertex, or shape graphs. Strip temporary physics bundles at stable world commit, keep graph traversal only as an explicit test/tooling oracle, and report graph residency from actual retained fields.
Validated by 115 focused collision/streaming tests, a zero-warning Release build, and 8,413 passing Release tests with five pre-existing skips.

Make prepared flat BSP data authoritative for gameplay while retaining the parsed graph only as an exact sampled referee. Fail production publication when collision package data is genuinely absent, keep idempotent already-cached publication valid, and move cell membership, floor lookup, camera diagnostics, and live/static shape bounds onto the flat representation.
Validated by 8,402 Release tests, a strict dense-Arwic connected gate with 46,309/46,309 exact referee matches, and graceful shutdown.

Carry one immutable prepared collision closure with each accepted near-tier generation and install graph plus flat views through the same retained publication receipt. Apply the same strict package-only rule to live entities, add exact sampled graph-authoritative comparison artifacts and lifecycle counters, and prove cancellation, demotion, rehydrate, revisit, teardown, reconnect, and the nine-stop route with 14,064 zero-mismatch samples.

Port every current containment, overlap, walkable, and six-path moving-collision query to immutable integer-indexed assets behind a graph-authoritative referee. Exact synthetic, installed-DAT, complete-resolver, and zero-allocation gates prove bit-identical behavior before connected dual publication.

Append strict collision/topology payloads to the existing prepared package so later physics cutover can drop parsed DAT graphs without adding a second mapping or changing traversal behavior. The full 2,232,170-key catalog is deterministic across worker counts, exact-byte aliased, corruption-isolated, and cancellation-safe.
Add immutable indexed physics and containment BSP records, exact-bit polygon and Setup payloads, separated CellStruct/topology ownership, and iterative positive-before-negative flattening. Reject malformed graphs and ranges, and prove source identity over synthetic edge cases and installed retail DAT samples without cutting production traversal over.
Mirror retail's ten-deep LIFO transition lifetime, retain all query scratch with complete reset contracts, and remove Tier-0 enum boxing without changing collision decisions. Fresh and retained engines are bit-identical across the expanded oracle, while measured transition profiles now allocate 0 bytes per resolve.
Detach old-world spatial ownership atomically, prioritize destination retirement dependencies, and reveal the viewport at the retail transition edge. Give private paperdoll views independent mesh ownership and retain dormant ACE entities so portal revisits preserve server objects without extending active GPU lifetimes.
Replace over-cap full sorting with a retained exact top-k heap while preserving the accepted tie-order fallback. Differential tests lock randomized and Town Network-scale output, and the measured 463-light path cuts selector CPU by 29 percent without warmed allocations.
Join destination scheduling to the canonical reveal generation, protect its share across every typed frame-budget dimension, and prevent stale work from clearing a replacement reservation. Remove forced incomplete materialization and project retail's centered portal wait cue while the authored tunnel remains active.
Tests: Release build clean; 91 focused reservation/reveal tests; full solution 8,158 passed, 5 skipped.

Publish the retail blocking-for-cells edge before deferred recenter work, freeze old-world presentation/simulation/audio, and advance full-window retirement from exact metered entity and owner cursors. This removes synchronous portal teardown without allowing retained owners to remain observable.
Complete Slice D4 by adding aggregate lifecycle occupancy and traffic facts, validating physical source reports, and including decoded audio under the typed startup budget. Exercise every domain under forced pressure and retain the real cache/fence convergence gates.
Two audit-verified caches grew monotonically for process lifetime, which is
fatal for the 30-bot long-uptime headless-fleet goal:
- DatSoundCache._waves (Core) memoized every decoded PCM WaveData forever
in a bare ConcurrentDictionary — no LRU, no byte budget.
- OpenAlAudioEngine._bufferByWaveId (App) retained a native OpenAL buffer
copy of the same PCM per wave id until engine disposal — a second,
independent unbounded cache.
DatSoundCache now bounds payload residency with a 32 MiB byte-budget LRU
(decoded PCM waves run ~100-500 KB each, so this holds a comfortable
working set). Missing/unsupported-format waves are memoized separately in
an unbounded-but-cheap negative-result set (bounded by the finite Wave dat
id space) so they can never compete with or get evicted alongside payload
entries. Concurrent first-touch decodes of the same wave id are deduped
via a shared Lazy<T> so racing callers don't pay for WaveDecoder.Decode
twice. AcDream.Core cannot reference AcDream.Content (code-structure rule
2), so the LRU is a local reimplementation mirroring
BoundedDatObjectCache/DecodedTextureCache's shape rather than a shared
dependency.
OpenAlAudioEngine._bufferByWaveId now bounds native buffer residency with
a 48 MiB byte-budget LRU (AlBufferBudgetTracker), evicting least-recently-
used buffers once oversized. alDeleteBuffers fails on a buffer still
attached to a source, so eviction queries live AL per-source state
(GetSourceInteger.Buffer) rather than tracking a second, easily-stale
copy — several call sites (Play3DWave, PlayUiWave) set a source's buffer
directly. The buffer EnsureBuffer just created is explicitly protected
from its own eviction pass, since the caller hasn't attached it to a
source yet at that point. Evicted waves simply replay through
DatSoundCache -> EnsureBuffer on next use, identical to a first play.
Verified before implementing: AudioHookSink is the only GetWave caller
(single per-frame render-thread path per AnimationHookRouter's own
threading doc), and PcmBytes is read only at DatSoundCache.Admit (byte
accounting) and EnsureBuffer's first-upload branch — confirmed dead after
AL upload on the steady-state replay path, so bounding either cache
independently is correctness-safe; a cold replay after both evict simply
falls back to a full re-decode + re-upload, identical to a first play.
AlBufferBudgetTracker's eviction/budget decision is extracted as pure
logic (no AL dependency) specifically so it's unit-testable: the existing
OpenAlResourceLifetimeTests fake exposes a null AL, which short-circuits
every native buffer call before it runs, so the engine's actual AL wiring
isn't testable headless.
Tests: 9 new DatSoundCacheTests (Core.Tests) covering eviction order, byte
accounting, negative-result memoization, oversize-single-entry handling,
and concurrent-access smoke tests; 10 new AlBufferBudgetTrackerTests
(App.Tests) covering the pure LRU/budget/protection logic. Full suite:
3214/2 skip (Core.Tests), 3471/3 skip (App.Tests) plus one pre-existing,
unrelated failure (LandblockBuildOriginTests.FarLoad_..., reproduces
identically with these changes stashed out — landblock streaming, not
audio).

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.
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.

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.
