gromandClaude Opus 5 81d96af35d Everwood: the HD/OctoWoW line of benilla, imported onto upstream
This checkout had no git history at all, so this one commit carries the whole
of the Everwood work as a single import on top of chairmanpow/benilla-octo's
`main` (706cd71). The two trees have genuinely diverged — each has files the
other does not — so this is a fork point, not a catch-up.

Today's work, which is the reason a baseline exists at all:

- Booth previews no longer cast world shadows (`NO_BOOTH_SHADOW`). Portrait
  characters were entering the sun's shadow cascades, so every skinned-rig
  shadow specialization compiled live mid-frame; the hitch detector logged
  "main thread blocked 1316 ms" beside a `compiled LIVE` warning. This was
  the Fashion/Tmog stutter.
- Per-pane dress-up: each `DressUpModel` pane assembles and stages its own
  tried-on look instead of every pane mirroring the live player.
- Item template cache is append-only JSONL written on the IO pool, replacing
  an 11.6 MB whole-map JSON rewrite on the main thread every 10 s.
- `WOW_SYSTEM_TIMING` rebuilt per-thread: it took 2 mutexes per system enter
  and 4 per exit, costing 15 ms a frame (590 fps -> 60) and corrupting the
  measurements it was taken to produce.
- The visibility-churn sweep moved to its own `WOW_FLASH_CHURN` switch, so a
  frame-cost reading no longer pays 2.7 ms a frame for it.

Local state (`benilla-config/`, `logs/`, `target/`) is excluded by the
existing .gitignore; the account credential it holds is not in this commit.

chairmanpow 706cd717a3 merge: absorb samwhosung/main on top of the upstream merge
Same fork policy: upstream structure wins, local-unique re-instated.

Cargo.toml unions both measured dev-profile philosophies (codegen-units=1 +
lto=off from samwhosung, debug=line-tables-only + split-debuginfo from the
fork's disk measurements).

glue_booth.rs takes samwhosung's typed GlueScene (token/of_race/from_model_path)
and re-adds the fork's TurtleWoW races (Goblin=9, BloodElf=10) as variants;
their glue fog stays on Human's row, exactly as the fork's scene_fog fallback did.

ui script takes samwhosung's mouseover/hyperlink rework (world_mouseover,
minimap_blip, hyperlink.rs) over the fork's inline hover_link/span_at/pointer
path — the rework covers the same OnHyperlinkEnter/Leave behaviour.

game_plugins.rs keeps the fork's re-measured ceilings (466 / 5,509); mail.rs
keeps the explicit 13-tuple with a float daysLeft; MAP.md takes the superset.

chairmanpow 26d714fd1d merge: absorb upstream/main into the Turtle fork
Fork policy (docs/METHOD.md): upstream structure wins; local-unique work
re-applied on top. This commit is the upstream half of the reconciliation.

Upstream is the same program at a rewritten history (884dff77 == 4e0e89cb
tree), so the merge base was replaced to keep a real three-way diff. The
large conflicts are upstream moving first: the UI manifest (benilla.toc ->
the binary LAYER_MANIFEST/layer.toc split), the CVar table (cvars.rs ->
cvars/{mod,table}.rs, +24 video rows), the editbox flush model, the
host-side GetTime, the Options* -> BenillaOptions* rename, expanded
ui_unit.rs, and a rebuilt volumetric_light.rs.

Local-unique pieces re-instated on the upstream structure:
- OptionsFrame.xml: the 1.12 OptionsFrameSliders table restored under the
  Benilla rename, with the TurtleWoW deviation note (patch-4 replaces
  OptionsFrame.lua).
- layer.toc: CharacterFrameAdapters.xml (the sixth TurtleWoW character tab).
- ui script: wipe/sizeof, BenillaGetMerchantItemStats, and the attach/mount
  teardown re-walk all survive.
- game_plugins.rs keeps UPDATE_ACTIONABLE_CEILING=5_509 (re-measure pending).

The LFT/Turtle_TransmogUI rows benilla.toc named off the player's install
now come from the chain's own FrameXML.toc via the new core loader.

Sam SungandClaude Sonnet 5.5 24c7cab983 Stock character select roster; the screen asks for the list (#1014)
Part 4a of the stock GlueXML (`WOW_GLUE_STOCK=1`): character select's roster.

- The select verbs run on the reference's roster (`0x4736c0`): `GetCharacterInfo` (race and class from `Name_Lang`), `SelectCharacter` with its clamp and event, the facing gate, and `GetCharacterListUpdate`. They are backed by the roster load and teardown (`0x4724d0`, `0x472580`) and screen state 3.
- Under the stock screens the character list is fetched only when the screen asks, as `0x46b880` does. The world connect completes on the auth response (`0x5aab80`), not on a roster.
- Every character-park request goes through one ordered channel. A roster reply completes only the current link's query. A late auth after a cancel is dropped, Warden stays terminal, and a failed list shows `CHAR_LIST_FAILED`.

The native screens are unchanged. Fake-server tests cover the ordering, the cancel, the realm change and the native policy.

chairmanpow 8c9b1d9984 TurtleWoW compat: the create screen loads races 9/10, so the character and Blood Elf stage show
The char-create catalog compared `CharBaseInfo` against the stock 1.12 rows exactly and bailed
on any difference. TurtleWoW adds class combos (Human Hunter, Orc Mage, Dwarf Warlock, ...), so
the whole catalog failed to load: `body_display` was unavailable and the glue booth assembled no
body on both the create and select screens. The creatable set is now read from `CharBaseInfo`
(the stock eight, or a patched chain's more), the stock rows are a subset guard against a
misparse, and race 9 (Goblin) and 10 (BloodElf) load their display, dial ranges and outfit like
the shipped eight.

The chain's `ChrRaces` row 10 is `BloodElf`, not the "High Elf" the code named it, and
`scene_token` mapped 9/10 to Human, so a Blood Elf stood on the Human stage. Both now resolve
(`UI_Goblin`, `UI_BloodElf`) and the display name is "Blood Elf"; the fileString is what the
race stage keys on.

The create screen hard-coded the eight vanilla races. It now splits the catalog's creatable set
into the Alliance and Horde columns, so a TurtleWoW chain shows five rows per column (Blood Elf
appended to the Alliance, Goblin to the Horde), with the tower and lower clusters shifted to
match its XML. Race-icon UVs are computed from the loaded sheet's size, so the stock four-column
sheet and TurtleWoW's widened eight-column sheet both read correctly.

Sam SungandClaude Opus 5.5 4772489aad Arriving bodies composite off the main thread and show once dressed (#732)
A crowd of arriving players was composited in one frame, on the main thread, under the archive lock: 40 geared looks took 76–115 ms.

In 1.12.1 an unforced full composite never waits on its section loads (`0x44b430`), and a unit whose first composite is pending is not drawn: ShouldRender `0x607da0` feeds the draw flag `0x710c50`, and the flag goes to the mount model when mounted. It appears dressed once the composite is done.

Now an arriving body composites on the async pool, one task per look, reading outside the lock. The body, and its mount, are built once the atlas lands. Arriving now costs the main thread 0.26–0.45 ms for 40 looks. The appear fade runs from arrival, as `FadeTo` is armed at create.

A re-dress, a rig heal and the glue and dressing-room previews stay in the frame. Baked NPC skins are unchanged.

Sam SungandClaude Opus 5.5 06f9cc93df char create: the CharBaseInfo guard requires every shipped race/class pair and lets a patch add more, as the class-list builder lists every row (#631)
`CharCreateCatalog::load`'s misparse guard demanded each race's `CharBaseInfo` classes equal the shipped set exactly. A patch that adds a race/class row therefore failed the load, and without the catalog the create screen is disabled and the glue preview stands no body. 1.12.1's class-list builder (`0x4706b0`) lists every `CharBaseInfo` row for the selected race, skipping only Dwarf+Mage (`0x4706e3`-`0x4706ec`), so the patched class appears there.

The guard, now `shipped_combos_present`, requires every shipped pair to be present and lets extra pairs through, so a misparse that loses a row still refuses. `a_patched_combo_passes_the_guard_and_a_lost_one_does_not` fails under the old exact-match rule. Built and gated on macOS.

Fixes #617

Sam SungandClaude Opus 5.5 9c32e5126e String literals in benilla-ui, -world and -formats carry no record numbers (#299)
Part of #92, for `benilla-ui`, `benilla-world` and `benilla-formats`.

- 88 string literals drop private record and bug numbers, the dates of private incidents, and the workspace's name for the maintainer. They are assert and panic texts, log and printout lines, the `--` comments of the Lua prelude and of test fixtures, and one Lua assert. Each keeps its fact in its own words.
- Two test names lose their numbers: `burning_steppes_lava_builds_a_magma_surface_at_the_reported_pin` and `join_channel_by_name_answers_the_row_custom_and_nil_legs`.
- A test-only event, `B271_PROBE`, is now `ERROR_PROBE` in the two crates that register and fire it. A fixture's error text in `benilla-app`'s `ui_script` tests drops its bug number, together with the assertion that reads it.
- Doc comments that named a client function by a disassembler's label (`FUN_0068a830`) now give its address, in `benilla-formats`, `benilla-assets` and one `benilla-app` file.
- Every literal change keeps each literal's line count, proven with comments stripped and every literal masked. The two renamed tests differ only in their names.

Sam SungandClaude Opus 5.5 8505187668 Comments in benilla-formats: one line of fact each, no history, no record numbers (#130)
Part of #41: the comments of `benilla-formats` (the library, its extract tools, examples and tests) are rewritten to the rule in `docs/METHOD.md`, which is what the code does and the reference fact behind it, in a line. 19,654 comment lines become 7,264.

Fixes #105: the WMO collision comments now name walking's box-query leaf `0x6bca50` and the camera and line-of-sight segment-query leaf `0x6bc700`, in `models/collision.rs`, `examples/wmo_bsp.rs` and `tests/chain.rs`.

- **The mechanical strip.** The citations that were only a private record number go first, and each edit is shown to be a pure removal.
- **Wrong facts corrected.** The rewrite corrects the comments that stated wrong facts. Among them:
  - A placed doodad's material alpha reads file slot 0 on its spawn clock, while the reference reads bone 0's armed sequence, re-rolled every play window. The old text said doodads are armed once at load.
  - The fog end is stored ×36 and scaled once at load (`0x6d6090`). It is not raw.
  - The MCSH bit picks a map doodad's sun scale, 1.0 lit or 0.5 shadowed. 2.5 belongs to an entity's light node.
  - `SpellRec` is the row as stored, column × 4, not a translated copy.
  - A global sequence's clock is anchored at the instance's attach time (`0x714352`).
  - Particle twinkle is a gated size multiplier (`0x7b2adc`).
  - The blob shadow sizes from the Stand box.
  - Data claims are checked against the install: the weapon-trail kits' parameters and alphas, the beam rows' noise, and the maps' `field_16`.
  - Dozens more turned up on the way: renamed or deleted items, docs sitting on the wrong item, stale counts and links.
- **Deviation labels.** "Deviation:" now marks only a choice with a reason. An unbuilt behaviour says so plainly.
- **Verification.** Every file strips to identical code, and `cargo fmt --check` is clean. Four second readers compared every file old against new, restored the facts the rewrite had dropped, and checked each new citation against the reference, the code and the shipped data.

String literals are untouched; they are #92.

Sam SungandClaude Opus 5.5 8952d590e6 comments cite the reference by address, not by private note (#30)
Comments that pointed into the maintainer's private reverse-engineering notes (a note by name, a
path, a section or finding id, the analysis's own name for a client function, a process word) now
carry the fact itself, cited by the reference client's address, by vmangos file and line, or as
"the reference". Nobody outside could follow those pointers.

Comment text only, plus the test-assert and log strings that carried the same pointers. No claim
changes: a comment the notes have since corrected keeps its wording here, and correcting it is
separate work.

The two reference generators, `scripts/gen-reference-globals.py` and
`scripts/gen-reference-verb-events.py`, named the private notes' layout to find their inputs. They
now take the input files as arguments (`--capture`, `--framexml`, `--names`, `--extents`,
`--disasm`). Run on the same inputs, both write the committed tables row for row; only the two
header lines that named the old environment variable change.

Checked per file:
- the code is identical: each file with its comments stripped compares equal before and after; a
  changed string literal is compared under a mask that proves only literal text moved and every
  literal kept its line count;
- no client address the old text cited was dropped;
- a second reviewer checked every added address against its derivation;
- a detector for the notes' names, paths, ids, function names and process words finds none left;
- `scripts/gates.sh` is green.

SamandClaude Fable 5.1 e800974806 still frames skip settled work, and a guild can design its tabard
- on a still frame the world stops redoing settled work — each cut an exact gate, measured with the process pinned to the efficiency cores, where the main thread IS the frame: point lookups go through the water index, a terrain column tests its cell's four fan triangles, not the chunk's 256 (−1.3 ms), the flare march resolves its tile once, the static-world publish and light blob write only on change, billboards, emitter gates (off the new-portal edge), doodad-anim verdicts, the visibility walk, the unit publisher (its filter a named type), a rampless unit's alpha and the stable feed skip when nothing moved, the rig evaluator reuses its scratch, dormant emitters skip their step, child wiring visits pending emitters only, the shade map persists, and the terrain streamer skips its walk once settled; alone parked 25.4 → 21.6–22.8 ms of main thread, 32 → 36–38 fps there with nothing on screen (1979, 1982)
- the UI tick got the same treatment: a solo run's colour rides the material, not the mesh — the glow pulse's one `Assets<Mesh>` write a frame had armed bevy's asset-changed probes over ~44 k `Mesh3d` rows (−1.0 ms); script object ids index a dense map instead of a hash, where every scripted method call starts (−0.7 ms); the draw list is fingerprint-cached, walked every frame and sorted only when it changed (the list a named type); and the instrument that made the gates count at all: the first battery read flat until the probe printed how many frames each gate input had read as changed — `noisy=[cam:0,dbg:299,view:0,win:0,claim:0]` — one dev system took `&mut` on `DebugState` every frame to test a flag, so bevy marked it changed on 299 of 300 frames and silently disarmed every gate reading `debug.is_changed()`; it reads the flag first now, and the counters stay on the probe line (1982)
- two of the new gates were wrong the day they landed and are fixed in the same snapshot: the streamer's settled skip engaged the frame `complete` flipped, with the retained pass still baking the new cells, and froze the undrawn count `presentable()` reads above zero — the loading screen stayed up for good after a `.tele`; it now waits for a paced, presentable, complete world and keeps that count fresh; and the still-frame gates read the camera's `GlobalTransform`, which moves only after propagation — which runs after them — so a teleport frame carried every host's pre-snap verdict across the snap (a lamppost glow due to park kept its clock, over-bright after the `.tele`); the gates read the seat's own `Transform` write too (1982)
- a guild master can design the guild's tabard: the reference's own `TabardFrame.xml` joins the manifest (benilla never had the window), opened only from the wire — the click ladder's TabardDesigner arm now sends `MSG_TABARDVENDOR_ACTIVATE` and the Battlemaster arm its own hello (1861's two deviations retire); the `TabardModel` method table runs over five ints bounded by the `.rdata` table `{170, 17, 6, 17, 51}`, the design previews on the player's own body so the pane and the world show one look, and `Save` runs the fourteen pre-flight checks in the reference's order; the world frame is the reference's own `WorldFrame.xml` too — the framerate readout is live on CTRL-R — and the carve settled its kind: a `Frame` to Lua, a one-shot type, the sole tenant of stratum WORLD, and not "over the UI" when hovered, so world clicks and camera look stay live while its scripts fire (1977, 1983, 1984)

SamandClaude Fable 5.1 a5382d7b37 still frames skip settled work, and a guild can design its tabard
- on a still frame the world stops redoing settled work — each cut an exact gate, measured with the process pinned to the efficiency cores, where the main thread IS the frame: point lookups go through the water index, a terrain column tests its cell's four fan triangles, not the chunk's 256 (−1.3 ms), the flare march resolves its tile once, the static-world publish and light blob write only on change, billboards, emitter gates (off the new-portal edge), doodad-anim verdicts, the visibility walk, the unit publisher (its filter a named type), a rampless unit's alpha and the stable feed skip when nothing moved, the rig evaluator reuses its scratch, dormant emitters skip their step, child wiring visits pending emitters only, the shade map persists, and the terrain streamer skips its walk once settled; alone parked 25.4 → 21.6–22.8 ms of main thread, 32 → 36–38 fps there with nothing on screen (1979, 1982)
- the UI tick got the same treatment: a solo run's colour rides the material, not the mesh — the glow pulse's one `Assets<Mesh>` write a frame had armed bevy's asset-changed probes over ~44 k `Mesh3d` rows (−1.0 ms); script object ids index a dense map instead of a hash, where every scripted method call starts (−0.7 ms); the draw list is fingerprint-cached, walked every frame and sorted only when it changed (the list a named type); and the instrument that made the gates count at all: the first battery read flat until the probe printed how many frames each gate input had read as changed — `noisy=[cam:0,dbg:299,view:0,win:0,claim:0]` — one dev system took `&mut` on `DebugState` every frame to test a flag, so bevy marked it changed on 299 of 300 frames and silently disarmed every gate reading `debug.is_changed()`; it reads the flag first now, and the counters stay on the probe line (1982)

SamandClaude Fable 5.1 0535fe9097 a body lands with a thud, and twelve lists scroll again
- a dying body lands with a sound: the `$DTH` marker makes three calls in the reference (`0x624a94`) and benilla had built only the middle one, so the screen shook and nothing landed; the thud is a two-axis join — size class against terrain sound, through `DeathThudLookups.dbc` to a land or water kit — behind exactly three gates: more than 2.0 yd of liquid over the feet is complete silence, a size class outside 0..=4, and no terrain, no row or a kit of 0; it plays on bus 0, uncapped, so a battlefield's worth of bodies all land — the shake is the rare thing (49 of 430 models name a preset), the thud the universal one (329 key a `$DTH`, players included); the size axis had sat in our `CreatureDisplayInfo` schema labelled a string column 5875 does not have, and `StringLookups` stays unparsed on purpose — 9 rows benilla already resolves (1866)
- twelve faux-scroll lists showed their bar, moved their thumb and never moved their list: the reference's kit writes `frame.offset` from one handler the OWNER declares, and ours were wired to a `frame.updateFunc` field the reference does not have — Skill, Craft, TradeSkill, ScriptLog, the auction and the social panes are rewired, and a gate fails any faux frame without a handler of its own, because a list only scrolls when something drives it (1868); and the macro window's "Change Name/Icon" raised on a nil offset: `MacroPopupScrollFrame` inherits a template the manifest never loaded, and a missing template is a warning, so the frame was built BARE — no scroll bar, no scripts, no `offset = 0` — and the reference's offset read has no `or 0` cushion; the line is in the manifest, and a static gate fails any `inherits=` the manifest declares nowhere (1862)
- the character geoset selector's missing eighth branch is the tabard designer: B6 of `0x477520` is gated on "the guild registrar's tabard designer is open", not an ItemDisplayInfo column, and wears the tabard flap with an EMPTY tabard slot; dormant until `TabardFrame` migrates, but reading the whole function turned up three branches wrong since their first pass: B4-short never disabled [501,599], so the bare foot — a real submesh on 11 of the 18 character models — rendered inside every boot; B3 asked "is a chest equipped?" where the reference asks whether anything but the shirt paints the ArmLower tile, wrong more often than right (533 of 637 chest displays leave it empty, 566 of 570 wrist displays fill it); and B7 had no tabard guard, an ungated doublet arm, and a leg arm read off chest-or-legs where the reference reads the chest's bit alone (1864)
- a GameObject's display sounds have one trigger and two lanes: `GameObjectDisplayInfo.Sound[0..9]` has one reader (`0x5f4010`), reached only from the anim-event dispatcher, so benilla's state-transition arm — 19 Open and 4 Close rows the reference leaves silent, 80 Open and 38 Close doubled against the clip's own `$GO1`/`$GO3` — is deleted; and the kit's `0x200` flag is a LANE SELECT, not a loop flag: set means the ambient pool, which every campfire, brazier, torch and fountain names (37 live slots), and which had been starting untracked forever-channels (1867); and `WOW_PROBE_SERVICE=1` reads the NPC-service ladder back off a live server — four real NPCs, reporting the arm taken, the opcode sent and the window opened — with every hop inside the reference's own service reach, after a first run parked ~29 yd from Deputy Willem and blamed the client for a dropped packet (1865)

SamandClaude Fable 5 ac74c98c15 knockback is a jump the server aims, and tabards wear their guild crest
- knockback is a jump whose seed came off the wire, not a server spline: SMSG_MOVE_KNOCK_BACK's four floats are exactly the MovementInfo jump tail in a different order (speedZ down-positive — a rising launch carries a negative value, the sign vmangos's own source marvels at), flown at the same take-off site as the keyboard jump and acked with the post-launch pose, which the server matches float-for-float within 0.01 before relaying to anyone; it is the one take-off that seeds BOTH axes, absolute in world XY, so it skips the arm that would hand the momentum back to a held key and reduce the whole knockback to a hop; root refuses it silently, a seated player stands up first, no MSG_MOVE_JUMP goes out — that packet is the keyboard's, and vmangos logs a jump at knockback speed as an overspeed cheat — and MSG_MOVE_KNOCK_BACK turns out not to be dead: an observed knockback replays as the arc it is
- your guild crest reaches your tabard: the three GuildEmblems layers — background, border, emblem, on both torso tiles — belong to no equipment slot, so the body composite never wrote those cells and every guild wore the Guild Tabard's own default art; the install is gated on a display flag only seven of 29,604 rows set, of which exactly one is worn by any item — which is why every battleground and Argent Dawn tabard keeps its own art; the five wire indices are signed, because an undesigned guild carries −1 in all five and the client refuses to paint on the first −1 (unguarded, the commonest guild state on a young realm would have worn a blank tabard); the emblem keys the skin cache, so two guilds in the same tabard display cannot lend each other crests; and a guild tabard's background hides the bra where a plain tabard does not — it is a cutout, 79.5% opaque off the shipped art, and what shows at the sides is bare skin
- a fly-by is framed by the world camera, not the M2 camera record's fov: a census of every reader shows the record's fov and clip planes reach only the portrait and Model-frame paths — nothing on the cinematic path reads any of the three — so fifteen of the sixteen shipped shots were rendering at HALF their intended vertical FOV, visibly over-zoomed on every race intro but the Undead; the fix is a deletion, and it dissolves a standing puzzle: the authored 0.22 and 27.8-yard "clips", which would render the dwarf intro's mountains as empty sky, are not clips at all on this path — two floats nobody consumes look exactly like that
- 104 of Onyxia's lava traps stood on an interior floor classified as outdoors, taking the day/night sun inside a windowless lair: a GameObject's light node anchors at its model's AUTHORED bounding-box centre, and the trap's box reaches 98.42 yd past its bind pose — the anchor sits ~40 yd under the chamber floor, where a downward ray finds nothing above it to claim; the reference recovers with a 1000-yd upward retry at the claim itself, which benilla had only at the colour sample, so the verdict was decided before any colour was read; all 104 now classify interior, beside the 26 rocks and 119 eggs that always did — and the drowned-corpse pose came back from its cross-check confirmed at the bytes (a strict liquid-depth test at exactly two-thirds of a yard, Dead or Drowned), with the two reference-side notes it contradicted corrected over there

SamandClaude Fable 5 ee8f9ddfa0 the login scene frames its art, char select remembers, DXT stays DXT
- the glue scene widens only as far as its art goes: none of the seven login dioramas is drawn wider than about 3:2 — measured per texel by `benilla-extract glueextent`, which rasterises every batch into the camera's own tan-space, painting where the reference's alpha-key test passes — so the frame zooms down to the reference's own 16:9 opening (never tighter) and pillarboxes past the aspect the art cannot fill, instead of showing the clear colour past the backdrop's slanted edges; 4:3 stays byte-identical
- the character screen opens on whoever you last logged in as: the reference's `lastCharacterIndex` CVar, written at Enter World and only there — clicks and arrow keys never touch it, which is what makes the value mean "last logged in" rather than "last clicked" — restored on every character-list rebuild and clamped into range
- spam-hovering tooltips stops costing 2 ms: two write sites gave up naming their node and re-derived the whole layout graph (1,812 µs against the ledger's 44, on 919 of 1,262 resolves) — the wrap pin now touches the one region it wrote, and re-pointing a tooltip at the button under the cursor retargets the node's edges in place instead of throwing the cached graph away
- two corrections off the project's first GPU-bound report (a Steam Deck at 94% GPU busy on 8.4 W of a 15 W budget, the memory-stall signature): `farclip` ships the reference's registered 350 instead of the clamp's 777 — the value also sizes terrain residency, so 777 streamed, held and drew 4.8× the area — and BLP textures upload WoW's own DXT blocks verbatim the way the reference does, instead of decoding to RGBA8 at 8× the bytes of DXT1; the terrain slider still reaches 777, and the lanes that read texels on the CPU (terrain arrays, the character-skin compositor) stay decoded and say why

SamandClaude Fable 5 d6953c936f the missing bra, the robe's hem, and a doll that puts its arrow down
- the missing bra: the underwear section's CharSections row spends BOTH of its texture columns and the body compositor read only the first — the pelvis — so a bare-chested female composited panties and then bare skin above them; the second column is torso art authored on all eight female race rows and no male row, which is how the male-only regression test stayed green over the missing half, and the new test is byte-exact — the composite's torso tile must equal the shipped BLP's mip 0 verbatim
- underwear is the tile's FALLBACK, not an under-layer: the reference tests a prefix of a tile's equipment cells and skips the underwear blit entirely when any is occupied, while cells past the prefix stack on top of an underwear that was allowed to draw — so a shirt or chest suppresses the bra, trousers the panties, but a belt never hides the panties and a plain tabard never hides the bra; benilla blitted underwear first and equipment over it, which coincides on most gear and is still the wrong law
- a robe outranks footwear on the lower-leg tile: the equipment stacking table is a DEFAULT that two of the eight layer choosers overrule, and the robe bit lifts a chest to cell 4 over a boot's 3, so sandals stop repainting a robe's hem; and `_U` outranks the gendered file — the reference probes the universal name first and patches the gender letter in only on a miss (43 of 7944 shipped basenames carry both, and on those the gendered art is dead), which closes the bare-skin ring a shorter `_F` pant file left below the knee; `benilla-extract charatlas` prints the blits in order with the file each region resolved to, reading the same `equip_blits` law the compositor walks
- a model widget edits its copy the way the reference does: fifteen attach ids reset off every duplicate — blood, breath, the nameplates, the spell hands, and the nocked arrow — and the hand grips arm from attachment occupancy, where ours sat hardcoded open under a comment claiming the pane sheaths its weapons (it never did); the character doll stops drawing a hunter's arrow and closes the hand around the bow, and the booth bake log now names its attach ids (`at=[2,35] grip=[false,true]`), which is also the reset's retest readout

SamandClaude Fable 5 2c55790ec1 portals work, GameObjects animate, and the tent stops flickering
- Area triggers exist now, so portals work: every teleport pad, dungeon entrance
  and enter-a-place quest volume reports the reference's own way — one exit latch,
  first containing volume on the map wins, a sphere or a yawed box. Verified live:
  Rut'theran to Darnassus, the Deadmines worldport, and a level-gated entrance
  refusing with the server's own "You must be at least level 10 to enter."
- GameObjects animate. Every animated object arms its idle the moment it goes live
  (doors and chests used to flash bind pose for a frame), a missing rest pose is
  remapped the way the reference remaps it instead of playing nothing — the
  Ahn'Qiraj gate's root tangle stood frozen for want of a Closed clip — and the
  state machine covers the verified twenty of thirty-one object types instead of
  three: fourteen hundred spawns' worth of traps, goobers, books and questgivers
  now change pose off the wire.
- The flickering tent is still. Cloth you can see from both sides is authored as
  two reversed copies of the same sheet, and the real client backface-culls each
  copy from its wrong side so exactly one covers any pixel; we drew every building
  batch two-sided, which left the winner to floating-point noise, flickering while
  the camera crept. WMO materials now honor their cull flag.
- A sweep of long-standing visual bugs: effects respect the far-clip wall — a
  ferry's deck lanterns were drawing from 7,000 yards away; the night-elf eye glow
  goes out in first person instead of leaving two orbs burning in mid-air; the
  goblins' stray white hair tuft is gone (a duplicated table key resolved last-wins
  where the client scans first-wins); lava and slime finally have their own
  submerged view — the dense fiery orange and dense green of the real thing, off
  two fixed lighting rows nothing in the zone data points at; and the far-horizon
  band overlaps the detailed terrain instead of leaving a strip of sky at lowered
  view distance.
- Two caught at the keyboard: the backpack icon greys instead of vanishing while
  the escape menu is up, and the world map is a real panel now — it can no longer
  open over the menu, and ESC closes it first like everything else.
