Plan: 7 tasks decomposing spec T2..T9 with bite-sized TDD-style steps,
exact file paths, commit-message templates, and a T4 safety-check
branch (refactor in place if ObjectMeshManager._dats call sites <=20;
fall back to thin adapter otherwise).
Spec fix: §4.1 mesh-pipeline files now correctly placed under
src/AcDream.App/Rendering/Wb/ instead of Core (ObjectMeshManager uses
Silk.NET.OpenGL types from Managed* wrappers, and CLAUDE.md forbids
Core depending on GL). §4.2's layer split (TextureHelpers in Core,
rest in App) was already correct.
Plan task order: T2 (setup) -> T5 (Core helpers, lowest risk) ->
T3 (App GL infra) -> T4 (App mesh pipeline + dat-shim) -> T7 (drop
refs + cleanup) -> T8 (visual verification) -> T9 (ship). T5 moved
earlier than spec order to validate the namespace migration flow on
small-blast-radius files before the load-bearing T4.
Self-review: all 12 spec decisions (O-D1..O-D12) mapped to plan tasks;
placeholders intentional + explained (MIT license body fetched at T2
step 4; commit-message parameters filled at task close).

O-T1 audit (REPORT-ONLY) maps acdream's transitive closure on WorldBuilder:
33 files / ~7.7K LOC across Chorizite.OpenGLSDLBackend (28 files) and
WorldBuilder.Shared (5 files). Verdict on O-Q1 (thread-model): SAFE —
adapters run render-thread only; no worker-thread access to WB code.
Spec amendments incorporated via brainstorm:
- O-D7: Refactor ObjectMeshManager to take DatCollection directly (not
via adapter). T4 safety check — fall back to thin adapter if call-site
count >20.
- O-D8: Drop LandSurfaceManager, EnvCellRenderManager, PortalRenderManager,
TerrainRenderManager from the extract list — audit confirmed not reachable
(we have our own ports or never used them).
- O-D9: Promote 3 internal types in Chorizite to public on extraction
(EmbeddedResourceReader, TextureFormatExtensions, BufferUsageExtensions).
- O-D10: Strip [MemoryPackable] from TerrainEntry (we don't serialize).
- O-D11: Namespace AcDream.Core.Rendering.Wb.* for extracted code.
- O-D12: Drop ResolveId + [indoor-upload] NULL_RESULT diagnostic block.
Task breakdown: T6 (EnvCell/portal) eliminated; T5 (stateless helpers)
shrinks to 0.5d; T4 (mesh + refactor) grows to 2.5d. Net effort estimate
holds at ~7.75d.
All originally-open spec questions are now closed (Q1/Q2/Q3/Q4) or
deferred to T3 with an explicit verify step (Q5: SixLabors.ImageSharp
reachability).

Phase O extracts the WB pieces we actually use (mesh pipeline, texture
decode, GL state, scenery, terrain blending, EnvCell/portal decode —
roughly 3-5K LOC) into src/AcDream.Core/Rendering/Wb/, swaps their
dat dependency from DefaultDatReaderWriter to our DatCollection, and
drops the WorldBuilder.Shared + Chorizite.OpenGLSDLBackend project
references. WB stays in references/ as a read reference, not as a
project dependency. MIT attribution in NOTICE.md.
Tagline: ONE thing touches the DATs.
Discipline: verbatim copy first, no "improvements" while extracting.
Refactors land in follow-up phases. Out of scope: re-porting from
retail decomp; perf optimization; API cleanup.
User direction 2026-05-21: pre-empts M1.5. M1.5 paused at its
2026-05-20 baseline; A6/A7 don't touch dat infrastructure so no
rework needed when it resumes.
