a disarmed fighter punches, and the quest log tags its elite rows
- a disarmed fighter swings bare-fisted: `UNIT_FLAG_DISARMED` was read nowhere but a dev banner, and the reference applies it inside `GetWeapon` on the `visFlag == 0` path, so the swing lands on AttackUnarmed; the RE cross-check (nine workers converging byte-for-byte) corrected the first reading twice — disarm hides exactly ONE weapon, main hand first (`5ec28d je 0x5ec2aa`), so a disarmed dual-wielder keeps swinging its dagger; and the weapon comes OFF the hand: the field-change reflex `0x5ff580` detaches a drawn main-hand weapon when the bit goes up, while a stowed one stays frozen on the back; one pure ladder feeds every unarmed-view site of the 82-site `visFlag` census — parry, the sheath machine, the melee sounds (a disarmed punch does not clang like a sword), Heroic Strike greying out, and the Attack button showing `Spell-Reset` with the weapon still equipped (1863) - a quest-log row reads `(Elite)`, `(Dungeon)`, `(Raid)` or `(PvP)`: `QuestInfo.dbc` was never parsed and `GetQuestLogTitle`'s third return was a literal nil; the table is seven rows read out of `patch-2.MPQ`, SPARSE (1 Elite · 21 Life · 41 PvP · 62 Raid · 81 Dungeon · 82 World Event · 83 Legendary — vanilla's 1 is "Elite", not TBC's "Group"), and the base `dbc.MPQ` copy has only four, so a chain stopping short would lose Dungeon, World Event and Legendary; the row gains the reference's own right-flush tag string and its precedence — a finished quest's FAILED/COMPLETE word OVERWRITES the tag — replacing the " (Complete)" we appended to the title; the RE round confirmed the tag path and found the arity bug: six values ALWAYS (`mov eax,6`), the level a NUMBER 0 even on a header, where we gave one nil; the reference's title shrink stays out: an explicit width is a WRAP width here (1873) - the death thud is silent indoors, and that is the content: BOTH the footstep and the thud lookups key on `TerrainType.SoundID`, and TerrainType 10 "None" has SoundID 0 — the footstep table has a row there for 17 classes and `DeathThudLookups` has none, so the floor that creaks underfoot swallows the body that lands on it; 10 075 of 10 299 WMO materials (97.8%) are TerrainType 10 and 694 of 815 WMO roots have no surface that can thud, every inn and tavern among them, the Kharanos inn included — the code was always right and the prose was not; the RE round also confirmed the strict `depth > 2.0` sense and the size-class column, pinned a sound id of 0 as silence, and placed `0x6005d0` as the loot sparkle, not a second sound; `thudcensus` prints all 121 buildings that do thud rather than a head, because a truncated list cannot answer "does THIS one" (1870) - a questgiver's overhead marker follows its rider on and off the mount: the reference re-runs the attach from the `UNIT_FIELD_MOUNTDISPLAYID` watch handler, and benilla picked the slot once at build, relying on a teardown the reseat rework no longer does (B199), so the seat rode at the WRONG slot; `overhead_slot` is now the one definition of the pick (`0x6074c0`) and the marker rebuilds when it moves (1871); and the chat menu's kit was ours overwriting the reference's — `UIMenu.xml` loads earlier on the chain and our `ChatFrame.xml` carried the same kit under the SAME ten names, faithful enough that deleting it changes nothing; nothing ever opened the chat menu, and now a test does; an event census holds the gap between registered and fired events at exactly eighteen, failing on a surprise AND on a quietly gained producer — features not yet built, none a split pair (1869) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

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) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

bindings answer the reference's shapes, and the panel kit goes stock
- four return shapes were wrong — `UnitPowerType` returns ONE value in 5875 (the Era `(type, "RAGE")` pair does not exist, and its miss arm pushes the NUMBER 0, which `UnitFrame.lua:122` indexes `ManaBarColor` with), `UnitName` returns `(name, server)`, `GetTexCoord` returns EIGHT (ours four — a shape that exists nowhere, with zero call sites in FrameXML, so only the binary could have caught it), `GetLootMethod` answers `freeforall` ungrouped — the fifth right-name-wrong-arity finding in two days, so wow-re's `binding-shapes.tsv` (1722 rows over all 82 registrar tables) is vendored and a gate probes every binding's arity against it: 313 probes, eight divergences (seven global, one widget); `GetBuildInfo` pushed a fourth value no 1.12 client does (458 corpus sites take one, the four that destructure a fourth read nil on the real client), `GetAddOnInfo` RAISES on a numeric index, `Model:GetFogColor` is a packed `0xAARRGGBB` dword with no unset state, and the five miss branches are the reference's exact tuples - the panel-template kit is the reference's own `UIPanelTemplates` pair (our 18 templates were a strict subset — `TabButtonTemplate` and the `ScrollingEdit_*` family arrive, which unblocks the macro window and HelpFrame), and the swap found two structural facts: `FauxScrollFrameTemplate` is a `<ScrollFrame>` while every instance we declared was a `<Frame>` (fifteen elements across twelve files), and an instance `<OnLoad>` REPLACES the template's — four FriendsFrame lists set `updateFunc` in their own OnLoad, so `ScrollFrame_OnLoad` never ran and guild/friends/ignore/who had been silently painting nothing behind a `frame.offset or 0` - the options widget kit (`OptionFrameBoxTemplate`, `OptionsButtonTemplate`, `OptionsCheckButtonTemplate`, `OptionsSliderTemplate`) comes off the chain too, giving back the reference's own per-widget hover; one template of ours stays because `UIOptionsFrame.xml` is not built here, and the lesson is general — when a file SHRINKS rather than dies, every harness that named it gains the chain entry beside it, not instead of it Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the flight map goes stock, and vendors refuse in 1.12's own words
- the pet stable and the flight map are the reference's own files: `TaxiRouteFrame` maps to a plain Frame (factory `0x495ba0` allocates the base size, the ctor adds no field, no new virtual, no method table — and `GetObjectType` is not overridden, so its own kind would have been the divergence), and the swap found three silent behaviours — the close button did nothing (an unknown `inherits=` is a WARNING, so it loaded as a bare button), the "no paths" line drew empty, and the title is READ off `UnitName("npc")`, not received; the WMO skybox rides the interior crossfade — one weight (`[0xce9bdc]`, the same number the MFOG lerp rides), a 4 s alpha fade, so a skybox the flood publishes through a doorway draws at weight 0 instead of popping in whole
- a widget predicate answers the NUMBER 1 or nil, never a boolean: eleven of them (`IsShown`, `IsVisible`, `IsMovable`, `GetChecked`…) move to the 1.12 shape — the reference proves it in its own source (`tostring(this:GetChecked())` saved and read back `== "1"`; `tostring(true)` would never match and buff timers would never appear), 21 corpus sites compare directly (`IsVisible() == nil`, `GetChecked() == 1`), and one of our own tests had the guild rank editor sending `true` where a real client sends 1
- the vendor's refusals are the reference's table: `SMSG_BUY_FAILED`/`SMSG_SELL_ITEM` route through `0x5dcd60`/`0x5dd1f0`'s switches, six lines were wrong (code 3 printed "That vendor can't be found." — vmangos's identifier — where 1.12 prints "That merchant doesn't like you."), silence is now expressible, and keying them gives the vendor a voice (`ERR_NOT_ENOUGH_MONEY` carries error-speech line 0x28); the bank's three ids were right and its "purchase failed (n)" an invention; the logout refusal is one key, `ERR_LOGOUT_FAILED`, for every non-zero reason; the two mail codes we said had no string have one (`ERR_PLAYER_WRONG_FACTION`, `ERR_RESTRICTED_ACCOUNT`) and a sent mail says `ERR_MAIL_SENT` in yellow; a test runs the chain's own `GlobalStrings.lua` and requires non-empty text for all 193 `ERR_*` the workspace names
- a clicked quest timer no longer raises — stock `QuestTimerFrame.lua` calls `QuestLog_SetSelection`/`QuestLog_Update`, which existed nowhere in this tree; our quest log owns the reference's two names now, which also shrinks the delta when that window itself migrates

your character speaks its refusals, and clicks land on the right frame
- your character speaks its refusals: `VocalUISounds.dbc` gets an adapter, `sound::vocal` transcribes `0x4580f0`'s per-race table and `0x458250`'s play cycle — four plays of one line arm the annoyed variations, and the bus cap of one keeps the annoyed and ordinary lines from playing at once; a displayed message now carries its catalog RECORD, so its sound comes off the same row (tag 0x44 plays the named cue, anything else speaks the line), and 36 of the keys benilla raises have a voice — cast failures, inventory refusals, the quest/auction/petition lines, taxi, bank, stable, mail, the talent wipe; `EnableErrorSpeech` joins the CVars at the registrar's own default and the Audio page grows 1.12's fourth Sound checkbox with the dependency ours was missing (the master greys Ambience AND Error Speech, not Music); seven of the twelve taxi refusals turn out to be the YELLOW info line, not the red one they all took - at equal (strata, level) the hit sweep takes the EARLIER-linked frame: `0x764aa0` inserts with a strict `ja`, so equal keys are appended, and `0x7660d0` sweeps each bucket from index 0 upward — the reverse of the reverse-draw-order walk we had, so draw order is unchanged and only the hit sweep reorders within a plane; the wheel becomes its own index, and the five full-area wheel-catcher Buttons (Craft, QuestLog, Skill, TradeSkill, Trainer) are deleted, since under the true tie law each would have swallowed its whole window's clicks — a bug the Skill window's own comment had already recorded once - one rasterizer settle for the whole ground-decal family, and it is the measured one: the shipped client constructs `CGxDeviceD3d`, so the OpenGL arm holding the −4.0 slope factor is never executed (factor 0 on 2485 of 2485 captured `glPolygonOffset` calls), and every number derived from it was 256× too small; the reference groups the blob shadow with the selection RING and the footprints on their own at 10×, the reverse of ours — but ours is reversed-Z float where the bake residual is millimetre-scale and constant with distance, so `DECAL_RASTER` collapses to one value (32768: the ring and the reticle had been under their own conflict at 8192 and simply never walked on a slope) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the colour picker, guild charter, honour page and four more go stock
- the colour dialog is the reference's own `ColorPickerFrame.xml` — the window with the largest reach in the addon corpus (86 of 218 addons name it, 64 of those Dewdrop-2.0, so every Ace2 config menu's colour row opens it), and the guild charter, the guild registrar, the error toasts with the raid warning (which our copy had declared with NO scripts at all, so the big centre text and its sound had been inert scenery), the honour page, the quest timer and the stack-split spinner follow — each a toc line and a deletion - the swaps caught our own bugs on the way: the registrar's two service rows were hidden by a template modelled on the quest list's pooled rows, leaving a bare "Available Services" heading over blank parchment; the stack spinner CLAMPED a too-big digit where the reference ignores it (37 against a 5-stack leaves the 3 standing, `StackSplitFrame.lua:72-85`) — a divergence with a test defending it; and 1.12's Lua-5.0 `arg`/`arg.n` varargs turn out to work in this VM (mlua's vendored 5.1 has `LUA_COMPAT_VARARG`), which unblocks every stock file written in that idiom - 42 test modules carried five near-identical private copies of a disk-only XML loader that structurally cannot name a chain file; they are one shared reader now (733 lines out), with a strict variant that fails on an unknown-template WARNING — the case where a frame builds with none of its art — which is how the registrar bug was caught on the first window after Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the bank is the reference's own window, and far sight freezes your body
- the bank window is the reference's own `BankFrame.xml` run off the player's chain — our 890-line copy is deleted whole; putting bags into the bank's bag slots works (the two verbs its buttons are wired to now exist), the purse is a real `SmallMoneyFrameTemplate` splitting 987654321 copper into three coin buttons instead of one string, `BANKFRAME_OPENED` loses the argument the real client never fires, and the bank stops auto-opening your bags while the vendor and mailbox keep doing it; the empty-slot click still plays the bag sound, because the reference's own line plays it on every click the cursor did not consume — named as faithful rather than quietly fixed - underneath it, the bank's inventory band is a VIEW over the container feed, not a second copy — inventory ids 40..69 had answered nil because the doll array stops at 24, so the stock file swapped in would have drawn an empty bank; the six bank bag slots become real inventory slots (64..=69) fed off the player descriptor, the three bag verbs are carved from the binary (`PutItemInBackpack` IS `PutItemInBag(0xFF)` through a ten-byte thunk, the occupied-by-an-ordinary-item leg auto-stores with no destination slot at all, and the return is the Lua number 1 or nil — the nil being the whole reason a plain left-click opens a bag), and the swap caught `BankButtonIDToInvSlotID`'s bag arm six slots wrong: it took a bag number 1..6 where the reference passes the button's own id, which is the container id - far sight freezes your own body while the view is out — the fifth conjunct of the movement predicates' shared precondition, joining the health term so the walk, the turn and the follow teardown go down together; both halves are load-bearing: the `IsActivePlayer` half is what keeps a Mind Control victim walking (possession rides the same PLAYER_FARSIGHT field), and the latch half is the RESOLVED engage rather than the raw field — and the camera is untouched, you still look around freely, which is the whole point of the spell - the reset offer no longer outlives the character that earned it — log out after walking out of the Deadmines and your next character was offered a reset the first one had earned — and the one lockout leg no probe can ever reach (vmangos writes a last-instance map only from raid binds, which the client's handler discards as not-a-party-dungeon) is now covered end to end through the real system, its module doc saying plainly: tested and never observed Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

71 more key commands, and the quest windows wear the reference's names
- the binding registry goes 130 → 201 of the client's 228 live commands: a coverage gate makes registered ∪ recorded-absent exactly the 1.12 surface, each absence naming the Lua globals whose arrival refutes it — which is how 37 rows whose mechanism had already landed came home (the keyring, the pet book, the raid tab, the six action-bar pages, both vertical multibars) — and then four mechanisms bring 71 more: the five camera views with the reference's default table and its sixteen camera CVars read out of the binary (NextView/PrevView do NOT wrap), self-cast riding UseAction's third argument with autoSelfCast a real CVar at last, the friendly target cone / assist / last-hostile as one cycler with a side (the two sides use different deadness tests on purpose, and assist neither requires an assistable target nor swings), and REPLY2 — reply to the last person you told; the friendly cone also stops borrowing the enemy side's in-combat score bonus, which would have shoved a healer targeting you to the head of every cycle - the key names close their gaps: NUMPADEQUALS, F13-F24 and BUTTON6+ were keys the binding window listed and the file saved that the dispatcher could never press — named both ways now, with the namer and the codec structurally unable to disagree again; platform= becomes the OS gate it really is (off a Mac build the iTunes-remote category never even exists), and the Mac 1.12 slice settles that its F13 IS print-screen while F14/F15 map to UNKNOWN on purpose and stay unbindable; and the last-enemy stamp gains the four conjuncts it shipped without — you resolve, are not dead, not a ghost, not mounted, and the new target is alive-or-feigning — so TargetLastEnemy can no longer land somewhere the real client's never would - the quest windows wear the reference's names: ~40 of the quest window's globals were ours (the reference's name usually sitting in the comment beside them), its two six-item reward pools merge into the reference's single ten-item run with the update function ported line-for-line, the four panels and the quest log take REAL scroll frames (the thumb drags now), the gossip window gets its greeting panel, the two mail panes' inert painted-at-rest scrollbars become real ones, the Skills detail pane nests as the reference has it, and nine private constants take their real names; the one that broke a feature detect: our QuestLogCount — a name 1.12 doesn't publish — made pfUI conclude it was running on TBC and die in that branch - an EditBox is born with its constructor's five regions (the text, three selection quads and the caret), so GetRegions answers the reference's own count and authored regions start at index 6 — and a bare <NormalTexture/> now builds a live blank texture, since the element is what creates the region, not its file=; OpacityFrame lands, its first customer having arrived; and the equip / auto-equip / use bind confirms complete the soulbind arc — three different predicates with no quality leg (borrowing the loot arm's would have silenced the confirm on every white bind-on-equip item), Accept re-issuing the original action with the reference's suppress flag because 1.12 ships no confirm packet, and the soulstone use going through the same gate Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the select-screen ghost is four mechanisms, and a click raises windows
- the select screen's ghost is four mechanisms off one roster-row bit, and the rest of them land: the FFX pass swap — the reference builds TWO pass pairs, world and glue, and a ghost row installs the glue DEATH pass over the whole diorama while the character list and buttons composite clean above it; the ghost-gated sun — the scene's light gather is wiped and one hardcoded overhead directional injected, its colours turning out to be Light.dbc's death preset (diffuse (94,153,198), ambient (26,56,85)) rather than the live capture we had parked them as, with the sign settled at the bytes (an authored light already carries one negation, so reusing that convention lights the ghost from underneath); and three glow weights corrected — the glue screens pin 0.30 login / 0.40 living select / 0.15 ghost where we rendered a flat 0.5 everywhere, so login and create get slightly less glow too, a fidelity correction to a value we had never verified - a press brings its window to the front: the mouse-DOWN handler raises the capture-or-hover frame unguarded, the toplevel gate living inside the worker — which is what makes a click on a child raise the window that owns it — and the release never raises; behind it, a frame-by-frame diff against the reference put back what the transcription dropped: toplevel on 47 frames (without it every raise trigger was a silent no-op across the whole interface), the mouse on 16 window bodies (a click on the bank's or merchant's own background was turning the camera or dropping your target), and id= on 81 frames — the slot index a 1.12 addon reads, where GetID() answered 0; a new gate reads our flags off the LOADED engine against the reference's, both directions with a reason each, so the next drift can't hide behind renamed templates - the jump stops being frame-rate dependent: the fall step becomes the reference's closed form (the mean of the endpoint velocities is the exact displacement rate, and both our movers had the error in opposite directions), taking the apex from 1.668 yd at 144 fps and 1.844 at 20 to a flat 1.640 against the analytic 1.640 — a live run apexed at 1.6410; and the knockback's freeze is its PLANTED direction bit, not a velocity test — air control opens exactly while the direction nibble is clear, the launch plants forward whatever its speed, and the bit now rides the wire, which we had never sent at all - the walk-away leash belongs to the OBJECT: the reference's watchdog overwrites the opener's stored range on the player typemask bit alone with (10+4)², so a player-shared quest panel is leashed at 14 yards — not at the 5.56-yard NPC reach, and not never, as two earlier readings had it — while a census of all 14 arming sites confirms every other NPC window already closed at the right distance; the walk-away also sends strictly LESS than the button: an NPC panel closes silently while a share still owes its decline Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

quest sharing is in, and declining at an NPC reopens its list
- quest sharing lands whole: four opcodes, the Share button live with the reference's own predicate (registering the one party event it does for the one reason it does — joining a party changes the answer without changing the log), nine verdict lines for the sharer, and the escort confirm as its own dialog whose No sends nothing at all, because there is no decline packet for it; the push result's u64 means two things by direction — the sharer being answered going up, the member the verdict is ABOUT coming down — and the verdict stays a raw byte so an unmapped value shows the reference's own nothing rather than killing the packet - the receiving half needs almost no code, and that is the design: the server sends an eligible member an ORDINARY quest-details packet whose giver guid is the sharing PLAYER, and Accept answers with the ordinary accept — a shared quest lands on the questgiver panel we already have, and the guid's own type bits drive the two real differences: declining a share owes the sharer a DECLINE verdict, and the panel is not held to the 5.56-yard NPC service range (the server's bound for a share is 14 yards, tested at accept) - the fold-back corrected three things days-old code had just shipped: DeclineQuest and CloseQuest are ONE routine in the reference — what varies is the giver, not which button you pressed; declining an NPC's quest RE-OPENS its list — the session end sends the giver a fresh hello, refuting our five-month-old claim that "vanilla's client-side decline sends no packet" (and the details packet's trailing u32 we had parsed and ignored is exactly what suppresses that re-open) — so declining at an NPC now returns you to its menu instead of closing the window; and BUSY is the client's OWN verdict — a share arriving while any panel is open is refused client-side, covering the mid-turn-in case the server cannot see Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the HUD becomes UIParent's child, and cinematics fade through black
- the transcription had dropped parent= on 72 declarations the reference carries (37 to UIParent, 28 to the action bar's art frame, 7 more), so the HUD was a field of top-level frames and UIParent:Hide() reached almost nothing — which is why a cinematic had to hide the UI at the draw level and then special-case the pointer; both workarounds are deleted and the HUD hides through the reference's own route; restoring only the UIParent half would have been the dangerous part (draw order is one flat sort, so a partial restore lifts frames over the neighbours they carry), and manifest order turns out to be load-bearing — a parent name that doesn't exist yet is silently ignored, so UIParent.xml moves to the reference's own slot with a test that fails if anything declares a child first; the chat still drew over a fly-by after all that, because the reference parents the chat windows on their TEMPLATE, invisible to a name-for-name diff when both sides rename — two declarations fix it, and the sweep that replaces the method loads the whole shipped manifest, fires CINEMATIC_START and asserts the survivors are exactly three: 91 frames visible before, 3 after, and the count comes back on stop - every cinematic boundary cuts through the reference's 0.25 s fade to black, and the next step hangs on the fade's COMPLETION, not a delay — the shot boundary is exactly where the reference does a blocking terrain load, so a delay-driven cut shows through a hitch and a completion-driven one cannot; and a fly-by now ends into black instead of a ~0.3 s loading cover: the reference raises no cover on that path, it holds black while the ground under the player loads back, so ours holds black while the stream catches up — budgeted, never an unbounded wait - the death arc keeps its promises across a relog: the body's own state machine now dies with the session — re-entering the world as a ghost used to match no arm of the world-edge machine, so the corpse query never went out and "Resurrect Now" stayed down until the next death; and a corpse wears its owner's guild crest — the corpse descriptor carries the guild field and resolves through the same crest cache a living tabard does, where ours dressed the body crestless - the char-select ghost gets its body kit: the screen resolves the state kit of the very "Ghost" aura a released ghost rides in the world — tint (140,185,253), alpha 0.5, and the Ghost_state wisp model at the body's attach point, pinned by a golden that decodes the row out of the shipped DBC; the airborne model is corrected before its fix lands — the address six comments called the gravity integrator is really the fall-velocity query, and a knockback is unsteerable because its launch PLANTS the forward bit, not because the arc is airborne (our guard was a velocity proxy, so a near-zero-speed knockback steered from frame 2); and the hover inspect card now decodes a picked part's mesh tag — alpha, rig slot, and both readings of the lighting payload side by side — turning a rebuild-and-two-probes hunt into a hover Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

- a cinematic holds the body while the camera flies: the streaming focus follows the eye — a Tauren's intro opens 1741 yards from the body — so the body's own ground unloaded under it and it fell (z=59.4 to −62 in four seconds, the server yanking it back); it now takes the same hold a teleport takes, released when the focus comes home to a resident tile, and the loading screen stops covering the fly-by, because "the player's ground is missing" is not a load while the eye is deliberately elsewhere; the letterbox measurement prints as an ordinary info line, and scripts/cine.sh plays any one cinematic and prints what the client did to the world while the camera was away
- a cinematic cuts the zone music: the reference asserts exactly what /console EnableMusic 0 asserts, through the same setter — a cut, not a fade, the music pump dead for the duration, resume at +3.000 s — and benilla asserts the runtime flag, never the CVar, or quitting during a 102-second intro would save your music off for good; ambience is deliberately untouched (it has the analogous flag and the cinematic never writes it); the narration has no category at all — its flags route it around every volume slider but not around the Enable Sound Effects gate, so unchecking that silences it — and the listener follows the cinematic camera for the duration
- addons can walk a UI they did not build: GetChildren/GetNumChildren/GetRegions/GetNumRegions land — the basis of the whole reskin genre, and the wall four of the twenty most-installed 1.12 addons died on: pfUI drew nothing before and now paints 495 quads, ShaguDPS 71 → 566, pfQuest 3 → 498 — with the reference's own quirks: the title region is NOT in the list (its creation path never reaches the region linker), hidden regions are returned and counted, oldest first; the Model widget gets its Lua surface (SetModel, SetSequence and siblings, read out of the shipped image, where SetRotation and SetFacing are two names for one slot); and the Minimap carries the nine engine-created Model children no XML declares, built before the frame descent, the ninth being the player arrow Questie indexes as ({Minimap:GetChildren()})[9]
- all seven chat windows come from one template, tabs and scroll buttons included — whether a window is shown has nothing to do with whether its globals resolve, and pfUI reads every piece of that furniture for all seven, unguarded; isDocked only on windows 1 and 2 (the chat-cache's own DOCKED byte), SELECTED_CHAT_FRAME seated beside DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME (the window you last picked vs the one FrameXML prints to), and the four per-window fields ChatFrame_OnLoad seats; two more one-name walls fell — a Button's label answers to its second spelling NormalText, which KLHThreatMeter's column headers die without, and ABANDON_QUEST_WITH_ITEMS is declared because a dialog table is read at load whatever the client later shows, leaving Questie with zero errors of ours — and the addon harness gains --probe/--eval, one addon's VM answering a question in ~5 s instead of a 90 s corpus run

windows take turns, the gossip page waits, the shot bar counts down
- the UIPanel registry is re-derived from the reference's bytes: the readable-item page finally registers, so a note or letter closes when a gossip window opens instead of interleaving with it line for line; the character sheet takes its real pushable-2 seat (an NPC window slides it over instead of replacing it), and the spellbook, quest log, talents and character sheet open for dead players again — a refused open now says "You can't do that when you're dead." instead of doing nothing - the gossip window waits for its greeting: the first packet carries only the options and a text id, and we used to show the frame with a blank page for the round trip the text needed — the menu now exists only once the text has answered, a mid-flight click is refused, and a revisit is instant off the cache - a bag slot whose stack count changes on the server now fires `ITEM_LOCK_CHANGED` just ahead of its `BAG_UPDATE` — the one signal 1.12 hunter addons use to detect a spent arrow — so Quiver's auto-shot bar drains per shot instead of pinning at 100%; a swap or create deliberately does not fire it, so rearranging bags can't read as a shot - the outdoor minimap tiles' gamma byte reaches the screen exactly once — the ordinary decode arm learns the same skip the fast path already had Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the interface code is ours: the transcription debt is paid
- forty files that carried the reference's literal Lua are rewritten as our own expression of the behaviour — worst identical run 61 lines down to 7 — and the README now says exactly that - the overlap gate measures the code itself across all four reference corpora, and ratchets: the number may only go down - a lost session ends at the login screen instead of silently re-authenticating and stealing the account back - a building's skybox is a real model: Caverns of Time's white ceiling becomes its painted nebula and additive stars Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the main action bar pages, and <Include> runs Lua like the client
- the main bar's page arrows page for real, with the reference's own rule that a page a shown multibar displays is not also reachable by paging - `<Include file="X.lua">` executes the file the way the client does — dispatch on the extension — so an addon pulling its libraries through XML stops losing them - UIParentLoadAddOn lands, the on-demand loader behind every "open the panel" path - nine constants take the reference's names back (NUM_GROUP_LOOT_FRAMES and friends — an addon reads the real name, not our prefix), and UnitCreatureType answers through the client's own three-stage resolver Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

addons come alive: Bagnon draws, hovers and clicks
- Lua 5.0's generic-for and nested long strings are restored in a forked VM — 60 corpus addons stopped dying on one deleted opcode - a day of demand-driven carving takes the 218-addon corpus from 24 addons surviving a session start to 114, with 144 loading without a single error - Bagnon draws a real bag and answers real gestures — hover tooltip, pickup, use, drag — because our frames wear the reference's names, and the reference's own ContainerFrame.lua runs off the player's install instead of being transcribed - the physics broad phase leaves: nothing in the client reads a contact, and it was measured at up to 41% of main-thread samples in real sessions Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the addon arc: the AddOns folder opens
- benilla loads real 1.12 addons from Interface/AddOns — TOC, XML and Lua through one loader, with per-addon saved variables, Bindings.xml and the lifecycle events addons expect - both AddOns screens are in: the character-select list with per-addon enable state, and the ESC menu's in-game list - the API surface is measured, not guessed — a corpus harness runs hundreds of real 1.12 addons and ranks exactly which globals, templates and verbs they demand - the Lua dialect is the client's own, read off the binary — 5.0 semantics with the 1.12 additions, and UI source files are bytes, not UTF-8 Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

quest timers, honest interiors, and snow rebuilt from the bytes
- timed quests get their countdown — a Quest Timers box under the minimap and a Time Remaining line in the quest log, kept against the server's own clock - interiors go honest: footsteps stop crunching the terrain's snow through a building's floor, and tavern voices are authored dry, so the fake cave echo is gone - snow is the reference's again — point-sprite flakes at the era's pixel size, and a spawn slab that leans into your run so a runner no longer outruns the field - Stormwind stops drawing Elwynn through its walls, a looted quest crate's lid settles, cold zones puff visible breath, and the collect-quest toast fires only on a real advance Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Interface and Social pages arrive, and slopes refuse the jump-climb
- the options window gains Interface, Action Bars and Social pages — buff durations, the action-bar lock and the social switches are live settings - a saved switch is applied when it loads, not just restored to its row - jumping at an unwalkable slope costs the jump instead of banking height up the hillside - the airborne animation starts at the launch, not at the falling flag — and the saved camera pitch is verified against the reference Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the dressing room opens, and the pet gets its paper doll
- ctrl-click an item to try it on: the dressing room dresses your double, and shift-click posts the item link to chat - the pet tab lands in the character window: paper doll stats, family and diet, the right-click menu, and dropping food on the pet feeds it - water-only spells refuse on dry land: aquatic form gates to swimming, client-side like the real one - the macro icon picker's white squares get their art back, and option rows explain themselves on hover Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the pet gets its frame, flooded rooms fill, and macros really fire
- the pet gets its own unit frame beside yours, and an Attack order no longer latches as the standing command - five rooms that always read bone dry hold their water now, the Deeprun Tram's flooded stretches among them - macros fire through the client's own chat door, and the macro window fits its tabs and scrolls its icon chooser - the options window grows a Nameplates page and its first dropdown, and the name-display switches apply live in the world Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |
