Erik 72ceddce2e fix: social panel completion batch (user gate 2026-08-13, "fix all") 
One user-ordered batch across the FA social panel + world selection.
Every root cause was probe-proven before the fix (new
ProbeSocialClickRouting in SocialPanelLiveMountProbeTests - production
window mount + real UiRoot hit-tests + a synthetic click):

1. STUCK CHECKBOXES (fellowship x4, allegiance x1, "always checked /
   can't change any options"): the authored checkboxes carry DAT
   ToggleBehavior, so UiButton SELF-FLIPS Selected at MouseUp - the old
   handlers read the flipped value and wrote the ORIGINAL back, snapping
   every click to where it started (the probe recorded (id, oldValue)).
   Fix: SuppressSelfToggle (the CH6a/b mirror discipline) + derive the
   next value from the STORE; the per-tick seeding mirrors it back.
2. UNCLICKABLE ROSTER ROWS ("only get the move window cursor"): the row
   name text is display-text ClickThrough=true, which the hit-test walk
   skips regardless of HandlesClick - the wired OnClick was unreachable.
   Fix: UiText.OnClick assignment now clears ClickThrough (central,
   documented); the stats text gains the same select handler so most of
   the row's width selects the fellow.
3. TRUNCATED EMPTY-STATE ("You do not belong... To create MISSING"):
   the authored string resolves COMPLETE (three sentences) but embedded
   '\n's rendered as one clipped line. DatWidgetFactory now splits
   authored strings into one Line per newline, with the provider still
   re-reading DefaultColor live (the state-color contract - caught by
   BuildText_AuthoredLineTracksStateFontColor).
4. FELLOW NAMES WHITE (user-directed): the AD-82 invented leader-gold +
   selection-blue tints are deleted; names always white (register row
   narrowed).
5. ALLEGIANCE HEADER LABELS: bare "0"/"0" -> "Followers: N" / "Rank: [N]"
   (user-specified format; the full retail StringInfo composition stays
   AD-85's gap), monarch block matching.
6. FRIENDS/SQUELCH LIVE (AD-79 mostly retired): Add friend (name box ->
   0x0018, retail clears the box - Request_AddFriend @0x0048D240),
   Remove (row-click selection -> 0x0017), Appear Offline (CharacterOption
   0x27 via the immediate 0x0005 auto-save, ACE pushes FriendStatusChanged
   to your friend-of list), Squelch Character/Account add-by-name
   (0x0058 guid0/type AllChannels + 0x0059) and Remove for the selected
   row. The wire beneath (builders, WorldSession sends, Runtime commands,
   parsers) existed end-to-end since J4.1/FA1 - this is panel wiring only
   (docs/research/2026-08-13-social-wire-completion.md, committed here).
   Send Tell stays inert (not in the order; AD-79's remainder).
7. WORLD SELF-SELECTION ("clicking my own char should select myself"):
   retail has NO self-exclusion (CPhysicsPart::Draw @0x0050D823 arms
   every physobj; RecvNotice_SmartBoxObjectFound @0x004E5BAE selects
   unconditionally) - the includeSelf gate was an unregistered
   divergence, now removed on both the left-click and right-click paths.

Element roles were probe-measured, never guessed (Add 0x10000514 /
Remove 0x10000515 / Send Tell 0x10000516 / Appear Offline 0x1000052C /
name field 0x1000051B; Squelch: field 0x10000540, Remove 0x10000547,
Squelch Character 0x1000054B, Squelch Account 0x1000054C).

Register: AD-79 mostly retired, AD-82 narrowed. Known remainder, filed
not hidden: the fellowship page's authored 600px content vs the 362px
viewport leaves Dismiss/Assign-Leader below the fold until the window is
resized taller (probe-measured; candidate follow-up).

Tests: Checkbox_Click fact rewritten to the mirror contract (both
directions), monarch-followers label updated, includeSelf expectation
updated, probe extended (click routing, synthetic click, action-widget
role dump). App suite 4,976/3 skips.

acdream documentation map

This page is the entry point for project documentation. It distinguishes current sources of truth from implementation history so an old plan or issue banner cannot silently override the current program state.

Current snapshot — 2026-07-27

  • Milestone state: M3, “Cast a spell,” landed 2026-07-21. M4, “Live in the world,” is active.
  • M4 gameplay program: resume the pre-M4 world-interaction completion program. Favorite-spell overflow, status Use/Assess, and the complete assessment surface are user-accepted. Equipped-child picking and vendor browse/transactions remain Slices 4–6.
  • Structural/runtime state: all eight GameWindow decomposition slices, Modern Runtime Slices A–J, and the connected visual/lifecycle gates are complete. GameWindow is a 1,622-line composition/callback shell. AcDream.Runtime.GameRuntime owns canonical session, entity/object, gameplay, movement, physics, projectile, environment, and portal state; graphical and no-window hosts borrow the same owner graph.
  • Headless state: Slice K is complete. AcDream.Headless is a presentation-free Windows/Linux host with deterministic commands/events, shared immutable content, multi-session isolation, reconnect, resource telemetry, and 1/5/10/30-session gates. The final two-account native-Linux soak completed ten minutes, logged out through ACE, and converged every ownership ledger.
  • Linux graphical state: Slice L0 and the L1 implementation checkpoint are complete at 66f114b2 and 11501d52. Native Windows passes the active modern-GL/audio/window smoke. WSLg X11/Wayland correctly reject their missing GL_ARB_bindless_texture. Physical-Linux validation and L2–L6 are explicitly deferred; resume at the supported AMD/NVIDIA L1 gate.
  • Completed gameplay gates: R6 locomotion/collision/projectile/teleport/ radar, two-client portal-out/materialization, indoor prepared collision, loot ordering, local/remote ground drops, and selection-marker lifetime.
  • Separate visual verification: issue #225, the shared-alpha lifestone/particle result; its connected resource-lifetime and performance routes pass.
  • Carried behaviour debt: issue #153 (far teleport onto an unstreamed edge), #116 (narrowed slide response), #235 (capped/RDP jump cadence), and the active temporary-stopgap rows in the divergence register.
  • Divergence audit: 189 active rows — IA 18, AD 38, AP 91, TS 38, and UN 4 — plus retained struck/retired historical rows such as TS-37.
  • Latest automated baseline: the Release build succeeds with the 17 test-project warnings tracked by issue #228; 8,826 tests pass and five are intentionally skipped. App passes 3,763 / 3 skips. The L1 Windows supported smoke and WSLg X11/Wayland negative-capability reports all end with zero window/GL/input/audio ownership.

Sources of truth

Read these in this order when deciding what to do next:

  1. plans/2026-05-12-milestones.md — the active playable outcome, freeze boundaries, and visual gates.
  2. plans/2026-04-11-roadmap.md — strategic phase ledger: shipped, active, deferred, and future work.
  3. ISSUES.md — tactical defects and small follow-ups. The status inside an issue is authoritative; physical order is not.
  4. architecture/retail-divergence-register.md — every known place runtime behavior can differ from retail.
  5. architecture/acdream-architecture.md and architecture/code-structure.md — ownership, dependency, update-thread, and extraction rules.
  6. architecture/worldbuilder-inventory.md — rendering/DAT code already owned in-tree versus mechanisms still ours to port.

If these disagree, milestones control the current outcome, the roadmap controls work ordering, the issue status controls the individual defect, and the architecture documents control implementation shape. Reconcile the stale document in the same change; do not leave both claims standing.

Research and implementation records

  • research/named-retail/ is the primary retail oracle: named pseudo-C, headers, symbols, and types from the Sept 2013 build.
  • research/decompiled/ is the older Ghidra fallback.
  • research/ contains focused pseudocode, traces, fixtures, and gate reports. A dated research note records evidence; it does not become a new roadmap.
  • superpowers/specs/ and superpowers/plans/ are per-slice design and execution records. Completed plans remain historical.
  • audit/ contains completion and conformance audits.
  • reference/ace-commands.md preserves the local ACE server's complete in-game command catalog and points to the authoritative per-command help surface.

Durable memory

  • ../claude-memory/MEMORY.md indexes the live subsystem memories and the render/physics digests. Read a domain digest before changing that subsystem, especially its DO-NOT-RETRY table.
  • ../memory/ contains stable engineering references such as the modern rendering pipeline, two-tier streaming, and toolchain notes.

Memory accelerates recall; it does not outrank the canonical documents above. When current truth changes, update the relevant canonical document and distill only the durable lesson into memory.

Historical and deprecated documents

  • bugs.md is the April 2026 bug snapshot. It is preserved for archaeology and is not an active ledger.
  • Dated plans and specs describe the decision at that time. Their completion wording is historical unless the current milestone/roadmap explicitly links the item as active.
  • Old R1→R8 architecture sequencing is superseded. Current execution comes from the milestones and strategic roadmap.

Documentation maintenance rules

  • Update milestone, roadmap, issue, divergence, architecture, and memory claims in the same commit when a shipped change affects them.
  • Keep one issue ID per defect. Narrow an issue in place; do not reuse another issue's number as a shorthand.
  • Mark automated, connected, and visual gates separately. An automated pass is not a visual acceptance, and an RDP throughput sample is not a local-display visual comparison.
  • Preserve research history, but remove stale “current/next” claims from living documents once the state advances.
