Six live runs against local ACE (testaccount/+Acdream as Leader,
testaccount2/+Horan as Recruit) converged on a clean split:
- FELLOWSHIP two-session gate PASSES live, reproduced in three separate
runs. The decisive cross-session assertion (the Recruit bot's own
RuntimeFellowshipState — a separate process's canonical Runtime owner,
not the Leader's local echo — flipping IsInFellowship=true,
MemberCount=2, LeaderGuid=<Leader>) holds every time. This ships as the
automated gate.
- ALLEGIANCE swear never completes: ACE returns nothing at all to
Event_SwearAllegiance (0x001D) — no 0x0274 confirmation, no 0x0020 tree
update, no WeenieError — even at 0.005 m separation (run6's distance
diagnostic ruled out retail's 2.0 m swear-distance gate). Ambiguous
between an FA1 wire-builder defect, an ACE-side rule this test pair
trips, or a drop; disambiguating needs an ACE server console this
harness doesn't have. Filed as docs/ISSUES.md #384 and
docs/architecture/retail-divergence-register.md AD-87.
AllegianceGateEnabled (static readonly, not const, to avoid a CS0162
unreachable-code build error from branching on a literal) gates every
allegiance-dependent stage in BOTH policy classes off by default:
Leader's WaitForVassal (skipped straight to the reconnect+teardown that
only need fellowship state), Recruit's Swear/WaitSwornSeed/Break/
WaitBrokenSeed (same). All of that code stays fully written and wired —
flipping the flag re-enables it for a follow-up investigation once #384
closes. WaitReconnectReseed on both sides now asserts fellowship-only
re-seeding when the flag is off, preserving the reconnect-idempotence
proof independent of the allegiance blocker.
The two live-run diagnostics added while investigating #384 (the
confirmation-arrival log line in HeadlessSessionHost's
OnConfirmationRequest, and LogDistanceToPatron in the Recruit policy) are
kept as permanent, clearly-labeled evidence for whoever reopens#384 —
neither is "TEMP, strip later."
