the loading screen lets nothing through, and the micro buttons go stock
- units could be hovered through the loading screen — the sword cursor gave it away: the world pick chain has no state gate, one of fifty-one input sites, so a gate per consumer is a rule that regresses; the cut is at the source instead — one `PreUpdate` system empties the button planes, drains the raw queues, zeroes the accumulators and blanks the window's cursor position while the cover is up (the alt-tabbed-away state every consumer already handles); a press under the cover never happened, a held button is released once, a gesture in flight is cancelled, and a wall test counts the channels; the reference does the same — its raise registers a veto stub (`0x406a50`) on five event-bus categories — and one gap closed with it: the reference parks the plain arrow and drops any item overlay before the screen goes up, where benilla kept a held item's icon over the loading art (1986, 1990) - the micro-button row is the reference's own `MainMenuBarMicroButtons.xml`, our transcription deleted — no engine verb was missing, and the whole engine-side cost is one alias, `SoundOptionsFrame = OptionsFrame`, because the stock file reads the reference's three options windows and ours is the one window for all three; what the stock file brings back: `UpdateTalentButton`'s own −2 re-seat (the five buttons after the talent button sit 1 px further right — the reference's own pixel), the raw binding token in the hover label (`(C)`, `(SHIFT-P)`), the sixty-second talent-button pulse on a ding while the sheet is closed (0304's scope-out retired), the keyring arm, and "Abilities" on the spellbook hover for a character with no spells; `BenillaActionBarArt_SeatAbove` goes with the file — a child is born one level above its parent (`SetParent` `0x76ab65`), the seat it set by hand (1987) - hovering the player arrow on the stock world map showed an empty tooltip: narrower than 4:3 the map is scaled under 1, and our `MouseIsOver` had dropped the reference's division by `GetEffectiveScale` as "always 1" — the frame getters answer in the frame's own units, `GetCursorPosition` in the screen's; the division is back, and the region getters divide by their owner's scale too; and the ready check times out: the stock `UIParent.xml` ticks `CheckReadyCheckTime` every frame, the one unbound name in that file's way, so the mechanism behind it is built — a 30 s deadline and a "has not answered" flag per roster entry, the leader getting no popup while members print "%s has initiated a ready check" and get it, and on expiry `RAID_MEMBERS_AFK` with the unanswered names or `READY_CHECK_NO_AFK`, the last answer closing the check at once (1985, 1989) - a review of the floor grind closed eight stale-input and bypassed-side-effect siblings the gates had left open: a never-placed card places on a still frame, the dormant-emitter skip sits below the emitter's lifetime blocks, PVS changes (not only spawns) un-still the gates, the appear ramp's retirement and a far-side unmark come due, a host born under a parked camera is judged, the projection counts as a still input, a fresh palette range is zeroed, the stable feed runs once more after a close, the unit publisher's viewer query is filtered, solo UI materials are reused by key, and the draw-list cache compares exactly; and three doc links the chat window's stock move (1948) left dangling point at what replaced them — the colour table and the tell ring are the stock Lua's now — which is what had the doc-links gate (1925) red on main Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

every dialog is the reference's own, and the trainer loads on demand
- every dialog is the reference's own: `StaticPopup.xml` + `StaticPopup.lua` load off the player's chain, and 0308's engine with its 37 dialogs leaves `UiPanels.xml`; all 76 of the reference's dialogs are the stock table's, 28 of which no file of ours had ever registered (the resurrect family among them); the nine hidden listener frames that existed only because benilla once had no `UIParent_OnEvent` come home to it verbatim from UIParent.lua, and the seven files that were nothing but a dialog and its driver are deleted; what the swap surfaced: the reference capitalises the countdown's unit word ("5 Minutes until release") where ours had lowercased it, and ESC in the typed delete confirm's box is swallowed — the entry names no escape handler; arms for events this engine never fires (PLAYER_SKINNED, TRADE_REQUEST) wait on their feeds rather than being armed blind (1960)
- the social window and the unit menus are the reference's own files: `FriendsFrame.xml` loads off the chain and our transcription is deleted — its twelve dialogs re-homed, `FRIENDLIST_SHOW` fired as the answer to an explicit `ShowFriends()`, and `Get`/`SetLookingForGroup` a client-side flag until their bodies are carved; `UnitPopup.xml` loads off the chain, our row catalogue and its driver frame go, and nine verbs are built for it — `HasFullControl` off the player-control flag the reference reads at `0x51a158`, `UnitPlayerOrPetInParty`/`InRaid` over a new unit owner, and the six pet one-shots, each pressing the bar's own reaction or command slot word through the same latch and `CMSG_PET_ACTION`, confirmed by wow-re's carve; the Guild Leave/Promote confirms 1958 believed nothing registered were our social file's all along, and the duplicate went with it (1958, 1959)
- the trainer loads on demand: our `TrainerFrame.xml` is deleted and no row replaces it — `Blizzard_TrainerUI` loads off the player's own chain through the reference's `ClassTrainerFrame_LoadUI`, and the LoadOnDemand `Blizzard_*` addons are registry rows read off the chain; the timing IS the mechanism: the list builder writes the state-filter mask to 3 on every `SMSG_TRAINER_LIST` (`0x4d75d9`) and the stock addon pushes its saved filters exactly once, on its own ADDON_LOADED — which fires on the session's first trainer, after that packet, so the saved filters win that open and an eager load would never have applied them; the loader holds an anchor to a sibling not built yet and applies it once the subtree exists; and `UNIT_FLAGS` fires only on a change between two snapshots — wow-re's trio found the per-field watch bridge runs no notify pass on the create leg, correcting 1953 (1957)
- the additive window, built and withdrawn the same hour: under `BLEND_ADD` every additive particle draw commutes with every other, so same-key additive draws can be regrouped exactly — built in the effect lane's merge walk and measured on the crowd rig (Stormwind, forty partybots): the adjacency merge already folds about half the effect items and the regroup found two more folds in a frame of ninety-three, so the pre-regroup walk is what runs; what stays: an `fx=` items/merged census on the FPS probe line, a `DRESS_PART` line per drawn part of the self body on the dress census, and the regression the A/B uncovered: 1948's stock chat migration dropped the drain's plain-line sender, so every `WOW_PROBE_CHAT` rig — the crowd rig's forty `.partybot add`s among them — had gone silent on the server; a probe's slash-less line reaches the wire as SAY again (1955)

the pet bar and skills tab go stock, and the raid's profile is flat
- the pet action bar is the reference's own `PetActionBarFrame.xml`; our 559-line transcription is deleted, and the reference's bar brings what it had left out — the slide, the Ctrl-held and locked gates on show/hide, the hotkey pass whose string-versus-number comparison leaves every corner empty — with the three pet dialogs moved verbatim into the popup slice; one adapter draws the autocast shine (the reference's `<Model>` draws nothing in this engine, so each button gets the token-texture shine at the reference's own 1.2); the stock file registers four events nothing fired, built rather than listed — `PET_BAR_UPDATE_COOLDOWN` when the ten cooldown triples alone move, `PLAYER_CONTROL_LOST`/`GAINED` on the edge of the control flag (`0x4958e0`'s change-gated fire), `PLAYER_FARSIGHT_FOCUS_CHANGED` on the edge of the farsight descriptor, and `UNIT_FLAGS` on a change of the raw flags (its exact fire law a dispatched question) (1953) - the skills tab is the reference's own `SkillFrame.xml` at its slot between ReputationFrame and HonorFrame; our 874-line transcription is deleted, the `UNLEARN_SKILL` dialog moves verbatim into the popup slice, and `CancelSkillUps` is built — the page's live Close button calls it before hiding, so every close reaches it; it is the reset leg of the temp-point table (`0x4d3e30`, no arguments, no returns) over a table this client keeps empty by construction, so the reset moves nothing, which is the binding's whole effect on this data; `AddSkillUp`, `RemoveSkillUp` and `BuySkillTier` sit on buttons the reference shows only for skill points or step/rank costs no 1.12 server sends and stay named as open gaps; and the expand tab's fit is the reference's load-time law (`GetTextWidth()+45` once, in OnLoad), so the transcription's zero-measure guard and re-fit are gone (1956) - a 45-bot Blackrock raid circling with sound on holds 60 fps with the main thread at 6–7 ms while the HUD's ms readout says 17–18: that number is the sum of every thread's CPU per frame (main, render, compute pool, audio), not the frame time — the raid costs +6 ms spread over four threads with no thread owning it; two suspects refuted by measurement: mimalloc as the process allocator (interleaved: no change on any thread, reverted the same hour) and page faults (59 a frame on the probe, tens of microseconds, not the render thread's 2.1 ms of kernel time, which is the Metal driver's own work and scales with draws); so the probe counts draws per phase family (transparent outnumbers opaque, mostly the buff wave's particles and nameplates) and `WOW_PROBE_SHARED_SKIN=1` prices cross-body instancing before it is built: nothing moved, because bevy instances only identical meshes and a geared body's merged geoset set is its own mesh (1954) - three fixes, each removing work a 15 s sample named: booth cameras skip cluster assignment (no bevy light ever reaches a booth, and the default config rebuilt an empty cluster grid per booth view per frame — 0.2 ms of the raid's main thread), the rig palette's watermark clone reuses the row buffer from two publishes ago instead of calloc'ing the 650 KB table every publish (safe because the GPU only ever receives dirty ranges), and prop probes upload the dirty span rather than every allocated row (circling a city streams props in and out most frames, and each change re-sent hundreds of KB for one row); no bucket of the main thread's profile is above a millisecond — the raid's +2.5 ms there is forty-five bodies' worth of every per-entity lane at ~55 µs a body, and the one lever left that is all ours, one texture array per body folding ~9 draws to ~3, is sized at ~1.5 ms and not started (1954) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the chat and spellbook go stock, and hidden props park their meshes
- the chat window is the reference's own `ChatFrame.xml` and `FloatingChatFrame.xml`, run off the player's chain; our 2216-line transcription is deleted, the feed fires `CHAT_MSG_*` and the reference's `ChatFrame_OnEvent` prints — no app-side composition into the windows, no routing table, no whisper chime or flash of ours, and the transcribed edit-box machine (sticky type, tell ring, Tab cycle) retires with it; the verbs the two files call are built to the bytes — the whole `0x98` chat-window record and its eight verbs, the 94-entry chat-type colour registry, the language walk, the channel verbs as a command queue, the slash handlers' emote/roll/assist/uninvite/console/logging verbs; `chat-cache.txt` is written and read in the reference's whole grammar, the 68-entry message-group table in flag order and the no-file boot included, and the chat bindings and macro lines run through the reference's own arms (1948) - the spellbook is the reference's own `SpellBookFrame.xml`; our 965-line transcription is deleted, and two quirks it reproduced by hand (the pet page ignores its page number, its arrows write the spell book's counter) now come from the reference's lines; one adapter remains because the reference's autocast shine is a `<Model>` that draws no pixels in this engine — the script puts the token-texture shine beside each button's model and carries it with the model's shown state; the nine spell-slot bindings (`GetSpellName`, `CastSpell`, `PickupSpell` and their kin) now parse their arguments the way the reference's shared marshaller `0x4b3ec0` does — a numeric arg 1, a mandatory arg 2, the index gated to [0, 0x400) with "Invalid spell slot in <Verb>" on a miss, "pet" matched without case — where ours raised mlua's own message on a negative id, answered nil for 0 and above 1024, and read the wrong book for "PET" (1952) - a long-hidden world model part parks its `Mesh3d`: the entity path keeps the batches the retained pass declines resident — 5.3k hidden submeshes at any instant at the Stormwind auction house — and Bevy's sweeps walk every `Mesh3d` whether it draws or not, so a part parks after 30 consecutive hidden frames and unparks the frame its verdict turns visible; every world model part takes part, units' bodies included, while a booth's mirror parts stay out; interleaved pairs read an alone Stormwind 0.1–0.4 ms lighter, and `WOW_NO_MESH_PARK=1` is the A/B; the audio thread's realtime class was the standing suspect for the raid's `cpu_p99` spikes with sound on, and `WOW_AUDIO_NO_RT=1` across two interleaved Blackrock pairs read no difference, so the lever stays as an instrument (1949); and a no-merge prop batch now says which rule declined it — animated (1551 at the auction house) or transparent, not order-free (340) (1951) - the probe reads CPU per thread across its window (user and system split, because a user-mode sampler never sees kernel time) and the main thread's CPU inside the app's frame beside its whole-frame CPU; together they place the vsync tax every player pays by default — cpu_ms 10.7 uncapped against 12.5 under vsync, alone in Stormwind, with no system growing and no thread spinning: it lands on the main thread, in user time, inside the schedules, the same systems each running slower, and a low-priority spinner holding one core busy erases it to the last decimal (vsync + spinner 10.18 against uncapped 10.17), which is frequency scaling — under vsync the cores idle deeper between frames and the next burst starts at a lower clock; nothing in the client is the cause and nothing in the client changes for it (1950) 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 inspect and talent windows are the reference's own
- the inspect and talent windows are the reference's own: `Blizzard_InspectUI` and `Blizzard_TalentUI` are LoadOnDemand addons whose real `.xml`/`.lua` live inside `patch.MPQ` — the loose `Interface\AddOns` folder holds only a `.pub` signature, which three notes in this tree had read as "packed, no source to migrate from", one wrong inference that kept five windows on hand-written transcriptions; 2300 lines of ours out, no engine work needed, and three things our talent transcription had quietly invented fell out (there was no level-10 gate, every tree scrolled where a shallow one does not, and a nil `TalentMicroButton` threw out of OnShow before the window painted) - a nil unit token RAISES in 53 of 83 bindings: wow-re censused the registrar table at `0x850438` — `UnitName(nil)` raises and `UnitIsVisible(nil)` is quiet, one line apart in stock files, so there is no rule to derive, the table is the rule; ours answered a default and our own test had pinned it; both token positions of the seven two-token predicates are gated, `GetRaidTargetIndex` too, and `UnitIsAFK`/`UnitIsDND` are confirmed not to exist in 5875 at all (zero occurrences under a positive control) — we invented them, and they stay deliberately ungated - `EditBox:SetNumber` did not exist (the only chain file calling it is `MoneyInputFrame.lua`, on the chain since the money kit): it is byte-identical to `SetText`, formats through `%.14g` in MSVC's CRT (`1e+020`, `1.#INF`), and `OnTextChanged` never fires from an edit — it fires from the dirty-word drain inside the box's own OnUpdate, coalesced to one per box per frame, where ours fired synchronously and `MoneyInputFrame_SetCopper` raised on it; `PanelTemplates_TabResize`'s `tab` argument is optional as the reference's is (stock macro tabs call it with `0`) - the skull or star on your CURRENT target never appeared or cleared until you re-targeted — `RAID_TARGET_UPDATE` was never fired, and stock `TargetFrame.lua` hangs its repaint off it; a raid-to-party conversion now empties the mark board as `0x4ba550` does; and the group-loot roll popups were already on the chain inside stock `LootFrame.xml` — our 546-line `GroupLootFrame.xml` had been shadowing all four of them Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the screen warps underwater, and the ocean darkens with depth
- the screen warps underwater: submerged, the reference runs a second pass list whose third pass is `FFXGlowWave` (`0x6cb1f0`), binding a 128×128 two-channel sine bump map that displaces both the screen and the blur texcoords by 3.0 full-res pixels — uv rotated 10°, scaled W/128 × 0.88·H/128, two phases at 3174 and 2805 ms; wow-re had carried the swap as "GlowWave, or a duplicate Glow" and the cross-check settled it (the two arms are mutually exclusive and the plain-Glow arm is unreachable on both backends; lava and slime warp too, and a ghost's death pass replaces the glow outright); a dry frame binds the same pipeline object as before this existed, and the phases advance live at 0.313/s and 0.355/s against a predicted 0.315 and 0.357 - ocean is a fifth submersion state — 96.8% of every wet sub-tile in the shipped corpus, so essentially all open water — and it alone runs a depth ramp on the light: `t = clamp(eye.z, −30, 0)`, ambient at `(k+1)/2`, diffuse at `k/4 + 3/4`, exactly k = 0 at −30 yd, gated on the full dword `== 1` at `0x6d2821` (the ramp does NOT drive the fog colour — that store is dead, overwritten before submit); the sun and moon glare fade over a 10-yard depth ramp applied to the slew TARGET, not the drawn alpha — a read one indirection out that two notes had published a verified negative on; the MCLQ fishable bit (0x40) is deliberately unread, since `0x69b5d0` has zero callers in the image and fishability is the server's verdict - the dropdown kit is the reference's own `UIDropDownMenu.xml` (one manifest line for 1150 lines of ours, `DropDownList3` gained, and two fixtures that only worked because our copy was more forgiving); `UnitFactionGroup` returns the English name AND the localized one — ours returned the localized string twice, and the first return names a TEXTURE in every stock consumer (`UI-PVP-`..factionGroup), so on a non-English client every one of them named a file that does not exist Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the unit frames are the reference's own, and the water has motes in it
- the player, party, target and pet frames are the reference's own files (`BuffFrame`, `UnitFrame`, `CombatFeedback`, `PlayerFrame`, `PartyFrame`, `TargetFrame`, `PetFrame`, in the reference's toc order) — our 2741-line `UnitFrames.xml` and our `PartyFrame.xml` are deleted; four engine verbs built for them (`PartialPlayTime`, `NoPlayTime`, `UnitPlayerControlled`, `UnitIsCivilian`, each answering 1/nil), the whole-UI load bracketed in the counted sound-suppression scope `0x48fbf0` self-brackets (the reference fires a `PlaySound` during load and throws it away), and `GetBillingTimeRested` read off `SMSG_AUTH_RESPONSE`'s third billing field rather than hardcoded; the differences the stock files bring are pinned rather than papered — `PlayerFrame` never hides, an unresolved name is BLANK not "Unknown", the target frame has no numerals at all (a bar hover pops the unit tooltip instead) - what the swap surfaced, each a hard break under the stock files: `UnitBuff`/`UnitDebuff` returned the Classic Era ten-value tuple, name first, where 1.12 returns two and three values TEXTURE first (`0x519500`/`0x5198f0`) — a raise twice per `UNIT_AURA` on any debuffed target, and all 184 corpus call sites bind the 1.12 shape; the power events are named per resource (`UNIT_MANA`/`RAGE`/`FOCUS`/`ENERGY`/`HAPPINESS` and their MAX twins) and we fired the Era pair, so no mana, rage or energy bar could live-update; `SetRaidTarget` is the engine verb and `SetRaidTargetIcon` the FrameXML toggle wrapper — we had registered the wrapper's name on the engine's body, so every raid mark in the unit popup raised - the underwater drift cloud: the reference draws a fixed 4000-mote field whenever the camera eye is inside a liquid — not a particle system, nothing spawns, ages or dies; a population scattered once into a 30 yd camera-relative cube, advected by the camera's own motion plus a gust and wrapped, so the field stands still in the world; benilla had the murk and nothing in it; a dry frame commits no draw, and the submerged one is bounded by the reference's own 666-quad cap (633–644 of 4000 measured live, which is the expected survivor count of a uniform cube through the 90° cone — an independent check on population, distribution and cone at once) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the numerals kit goes stock, and a chat link is its own mouse target
- the status-bar numerals kit (`TextStatusBar.xml` + `.lua`) is the reference's own, and the attempt found a class of silent failure: `TextStatusBar_Initialize()` takes no argument in 1.12 and acts on `this`; ours took an optional bar, our unit frames passed one, and the reference's version ignores it — so the numerals would simply never appear, no error, nothing missing; seventeen of our signatures differ from the reference's that way (Lua drops a surplus argument in silence), written down before their files migrate, and the three "ours narrower" ones — `StaticPopup_Hide(which, data)`, `StaticPopup_FindVisible`, `WorldMapButton_OnClick(button, frame)` — closed now, because that direction bites when a STOCK file arrives and calls our version
- a chat link needs no mouse on its frame: wow-re read the client's ctors as mouse-enabling Button, CheckButton, Slider, ColorSelect and EditBox and NOT the scroll frames; the objection ("something makes a 1.12 chat link clickable") resolved as the engine synthesising one mouse-enabled `CSimpleHyperlinkButton` per link span (`0x7a3240`) — so a link span is a hit-test candidate on its own, the chat window is inert everywhere else, and the wheel is its own predicate rather than a borrowed mouse bit; seven `*ScrollFrame` known divergences retire
- the relic fit rule: `IsValidForSlot`'s slot-17 leg is an EQUALITY — `(InventoryType == RELIC) == hasRelicSlot` — so a relic lights the ranged slot for a druid and a bow does not, on the bag bar and the paper doll alike; closing it half-right would have lit the highlight for a druid dragging a bow
- a chain `.xml` whose `.lua` never loaded: `MoneyInputFrame.xml` had been on the chain without its `.lua`, so the template loaded and all ten `MoneyInputFrame_*` verbs read nil, silently — a gate now fails any chain `.xml` whose `.lua` sibling is neither sourced nor listed; the gap report's LOAD column carries the probe's collision caveat, its fx column stops crying wolf (it follows `<Script file=>`, stops reading `.Field(` as a global, subtracts a file's own locals), and a window is its xml PLUS the lua it sources

druids get their relic slot, and the loot window is the reference's own
- `UnitHasRelicSlot` is real in 1.12 and benilla had no binding for it: `0x519e50` reads `ChrClasses.dbc` field 16 — set for Paladin, Shaman and Druid in `patch.MPQ`'s 17-column copy (the base `dbc.MPQ` copy has 16 columns and no such field, which is how the "always false in vanilla" belief survived twice in decisions and seven times in code) — and stock `PaperDollFrame.lua` calls it unconditionally, so the character sheet would have raised for EVERY class; a druid, paladin or shaman's sheet now hides the ammo slot, shows the relic plate where the bow was, tooltips "Relic", and reports ranged Attack/Damage/Power as N/A, all four branches transcribed from the reference - the loot window is the reference's own `LootFrame.xml`: `LootButton` is built as a real widget type rather than aliased (a Button plus one slot dword and one overridden OnClick — right-click loots exactly like left, no shift/ctrl/alt takes, a row whose Lua handler errored still loots, a fast double-click takes two slots), `LOOT_SLOT_CLEARED` fires per row again because the stock file hangs hide-in-place AND the emptied-page auto-advance off it, `EditBox:Insert(nil)` is a no-op as `lua_tostring` makes it, and an alias `GameTooltip.xml` had quietly become a reader of would have turned every item tooltip white, silently, had it just gone nil - the vendor cursor: `PickupMerchantItem` is two verbs behind one name, decided by what the cursor holds and never by the caller — a held bag item SELLS (index ignored, no merchant-open gate), otherwise the vendor row is grabbed as cursor mode 5, which is invisible to `CursorHasItem` (modes 1 and 9 only) so all thirteen stock gates stay closed while it is held; the drop is the buy, `CMSG_BUY_ITEM_IN_SLOT`, count 1, into a bag or an equipment slot, and every refusal is silent and clears the cursor; the four `Model_*` rotation handlers land in UIParent where the reference keeps them - the gap report reads `:Method(` sites now — it found `SetMerchantCompareItem`, which would have raised on the first vendor-row hover with every check green, and `LootButton:SetSlot`, and 28 "free" windows became 25; the shared coin kit moved out of the merchant window into `MoneyFrame.xml` so the eight windows that draw coins through it can reach it without loading a vendor Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

- 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 world map blips are the reference's, and particles go untinted
- the world map speaks the reference's names: WorldMapTooltip is declared (six corpus addons index it; pfUI dies on it at file scope), the blackout frame takes the reference's spelling BlackoutWorld, and the four hand-written party blips become the reference's own unit-blip templates — all 44 blips as instances, each with its published $parentIcon, the name pfUI recolours group blips by class through; the 40 raid ones are declared but not positioned yet, named in the OUT list rather than faked
- the templates addons build their own buttons from are published: ItemButtonTemplate, ContainerFrameItemButtonTemplate and the bag-slot chain — most of the handler scripts were live the whole time (this client executes the reference's own container and paper-doll code off the player's patch chain), so what was missing was mostly declarations, not behaviour — the bank arm stays out and is named as the omission it is; OptionsFrameSliders becomes real, with the three Graphics rows reading it and re-reading on show, so an addon's write to a slider's bounds actually moves the slider; and the template census that had ranked these at "zero demand" learns to see a local bound to a literal — its table went from 3 rows to 7
- the bindings answer in 1.12's own shapes: Button:IsEnabled() answers the NUMBER 1 or 0 (0 is truthy in Lua, so the reference's own == 0 tests got false forever, and three of our files had hand-worked around the divergence rather than fixed it); the constructors' string arguments are four shapes, not one rule — pfUI passes a Button where a template name goes and the reference constructs the FontString and ignores it; SetInventoryItem returns THREE values, the reference's own paper doll destructuring repairCost; UnitIsVisible is object presence and nothing else (57 bytes, one branch, no distance — an out-of-range party member is exists-yes, visible-nil); the tapped pair reads the two dynamic-flags bits, and its repaint wire fires UNIT_FACTION on the tap bit — the half a passing predicate test never sees; UnitIsPartyLeader is two ORed legs covering disjoint failures (a held stranger leading their own party, and an out-of-range member with no object to read a flag from); and the four nameplate verbs take no argument and return zero values
- the ghost's wisps compose onto its body instead of over it — the four emitters drew at full strength over a body at alpha 0.5, and now inherit the instance alpha down the attachment chain the way the reference recomposes it per frame; the residual we had parked ("the wisps should inherit the tint too") is REFUTED at the bytes: a particle batch commits hardcoded white RGB, and even that never reaches the fragment — particles are never tinted, only the alpha crosses, applied to the alpha byte alone — so the shipped shader split was already right and no code changes

cinematics play, and a lit particle stops brightening as you turn
- cinematics play: `SMSG_TRIGGER_CINEMATIC` resolves through `CinematicSequences.dbc` → `CinematicCamera.dbc` → a `Cameras\*.m2` whose camera record is an eye path, a look-at path and a roll — cubic tracks with the full step / linear / Bézier / Hermite dispatch the bone loops collapse to step-or-linear (every shipped fly-by is Bézier), planted at the row's origin and facing (`Rz(+facing)`, checked against vmangos's own waypoint table: 8.5 yd mean on the human path, 154 with the other sign); FOV is per shot (the Undead intro authors 90°, the rest 45°), roll is authored around whole turns, the flight ends at the sequence band's end, a trigger arriving before the loading cover lifts is latched and started when it does, ESC skips through `CinematicFrame`'s own `OnKeyDown` (`StopCinematic` has zero native callers), and every path acks — natural end, ESC, or an unresolvable trigger immediately, as before; `.debug play cinematic <id>` replays any of them - a cinematic hides the HUD — `UIParent:Hide()` reaches nothing here because the HUD frames are not its children, so the ALT-Z draw-level hide is used and the letterbox moves out of FrameXML onto Bevy UI nodes where that hide cannot reach it, recomputed per frame (bars only wider than 4:3, the picture cropped to 2:1) — and the restore only un-hides a UI this module hid - a lit particle's normal is world up, one constant per draw, not camera-facing: Onyxia's always-on floor haze read about four times brighter from a level camera than from above because the shader dotted a to-eye normal against a fixed light; the reference uploads row 2 of the view matrix — world +Z carried into eye space — on every vertex and carries the light into the same frame, so the rotation cancels; 400 lit emitters (the waterfalls, chimney and campfire smoke, Westfall dust, Dun Morogh snow) stop brightening and dimming as you turn - the `play` profile drops ThinLTO — rustc #86049 was intermittently poisoning the incremental link with `_anon.<hash>.llvm.<id>` symbols promoted by an earlier compile (48 unresolved across 7 codegen units; 1065 such symbols → 0 after) — and `benilla-formats` stops taking `image` with default features, which had been compiling a complete AV1 encoder into a crate that writes two PNGs: 499 → 466 workspace crates Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the shapeshift cloud both ways, and the Honor tab
- druids get the shift cloud back in both directions, by the reference's own mechanism: every shapeshift aura add *or* remove arms a one-slot pending-morph latch that the model-swap rebuild drains and replays — which is why shifting out (a client-side cancel the server sends no visual for) puffs at all, and why a GM morph or a revive correctly shows nothing; the first fix that merely let one-shot effects survive the swap's teardown produced the right pixels for the wrong reason and is superseded - the honor system lands whole: the Honor tab on the character window, the honor page on inspect, and thirteen missing Lua bindings over a real wire model — session/yesterday/this-week/last-week kills, lifetime HKs and DKs, rank progress and badge art - the load-bearing find: your current rank and your highest-ever rank are two separately-streamed fields, and the one we already had was the wrong one for anyone who ever de-ranked; a binary cross-check corrected five display details after the build, down to the rank title never being gendered Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the guild window opens: roster, ranks, notes and the message of the day
- the social window's third tab is live — the roster in both its views, the member card with its promote/demote/remove verbs, the rank editor's thirteen permissions, the guild information board, and the invite, leave, kick and note dialogs behind them - setting your hearthstone at an innkeeper now asks before it takes and says so afterwards, and the innkeeper's gossip lines get their own icons back - unavailable talents grey out, and every greyed icon in the client now goes through the same luminance fold the original used - the buff tooltip's remaining-time line reads gold with the client's own hour/minute ladder, the macro editor takes a shift-click to paste a spell, trainer rows repaint after a purchase, and a long book page stops flickering its ellipsis Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

our API surface is diffed against the client's 19,572 globals
- `--surface` re-runs the comparison against the captured in-world global table on demand, and `--surface-dump` writes our raw side for any tool to join — a one-shot measurement stops drifting - CreateFrame with an unresolvable template raises exactly as the client does, instead of handing back a bare frame; `inherits=` is one name, matched case-insensitively - CreateFontString and CreateTexture honour their third argument — 49 corpus call sites were passing an inherit into the void - the addon-message inbound byte map is corrected (a test had agreed with the wrong constants), and the group-loot roll template publishes under the reference's own name Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

an addon loop reports instead of hanging the whole survey
- every addon VM runs under an instruction bound, so a non-terminating loop becomes a report — and the bound promptly caught a landed fix that had been left switched off - an unrecognised unit token raises the client's own "Unknown unit name" error instead of answering nil - GetBindLocation answers from a real bind point, and RequestTimePlayed round-trips with TIME_PLAYED_MSG — both halves or neither Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

widget identity, a funded purse and a walkable quest log
- GetObjectType and IsObjectType land from the binary's own carve, with the client's exact inheritance answers
- the survey seats money and a quest log — sixteen addons call GetMoney, five walk the quest log, and none of those paths had ever run
- `date("*t")` returns its table form; the missing shape was an infinite loop for any addon walking days backwards
- unit tokens fold case like the client's resolver, and a FontString template carries the font object it inherits through the whole chain

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> |

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> |

fishing becomes whole: the bite, the line, the splash and the reel
- the whole loop plays: the line arcs rod tip to bobber, the bite splashes with its own sound, and clicking the bobber reels in - the verdicts read like 1.12: yellow "your fish got away" lines, the reel-in sound, the fishing loot window - "You feel rested." prints on the transition, rest states come from the client's own Exhaustion table, and level 60 trades the XP strip for the max-level rail - the Skills pane lists what the real client lists: the hidden rows, the sort, gray numberless single-rank lines Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

breath and fatigue bars, combo points, and a stun stops everything
- the breath and fatigue bars are in, driven by the server's timers - combo points show on the target frame, rogue and druid only, per target, and Overpower lights on them - a stun freezes turning too, and gm fly over water stays in the air - /sit and the shipped slash commands work, sheathing sounds like the weapon's material, and the bar never holds an outgrown spell rank Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the world only pays for what's on screen, and the leak is gone
- terrain draws per chunk now, and one authority culls everything outside: buildings, billboard cards, particle emitters - the fps and memory creep on long flights is fixed twice over: material animations only tick what something draws, and far-away art is released by distance (with a 30 s dwell floor so fast cameras don't thrash it) - the second crash ever reported (a cast racing a despawning unit at flight speed) is fixed, with a regression test that reproduces the exact panic - every build now prints which commit it is, so a bug report can say exactly what it ran Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the micro menu, the ping meter, and the PvP flag
- The main menu bar's two empty recesses fill. The micro menu — the eight arched buttons: character, spellbook, talents, quest log, socials, world map, main menu, help — sits in the dark panel between the page arrows and the bags, transcribed from the reference's own layout: the character button wears your portrait, a button holds itself down while its panel is up, and the talent button appears at level 10. The latency meter fills the one slot the bar art leaves transparent for exactly it, tinted green/yellow/red on the reference's 300/600 ms thresholds and drawn UNDER the bar art, seen through its window, the way 1.12 actually does it. The socials and main-menu buttons find their panels one snapshot later; help still waits. - The UI explains itself on hover: 1.12 ships its detailed two-line tooltips ON — a FrameXML default, not the opt-in extra it is often remembered as — so the micro buttons, your own portrait, the XP bar, the five bag buttons and the ping meter all answer a hover with the reference's own explanations. - The PvP flag, end to end: crossed swords on the player, target and party frames, driven by the two descriptor bits the wire actually carries, and `/pvp` speaks — the yellow toast plus the system chat line, the OFF sentence being the one that warns the flag lingers for five minutes. It really does linger: turning it off waits out the server's timer, which looks like a bug and is the reference. - Quest markers stopped freezing. The grey `!` over a questgiver above your level goes gold the moment you ding, an NPC re-entering view is asked afresh instead of wearing a session-old answer, and the marker drops when the questgiver bit goes off — the re-ask triggers mirror the reference's own set, plus one named addition (your own level changing). - Water and heights: swimming downhill no longer bounces between swim and fall ten times a second — the surface line is a two-sided constraint, so the swimmer settles with the river instead of being left behind by it. And collision height is per-unit now, read from the unit's own model: a gnome used to swim with a third of a yard of water over her head because five depth lines were quoting a human's number. - A round of pixel honesty in text and chat: the newest chat line no longer wears a wider drop shadow than every line above it (shadows move in whole pixels now), keeps its descenders, and hover boxes stop painting over the chat body. The chat input's history browse survives programmatic edits, a failed script chunk warns instead of vanishing, and recall deepens to 64 lines. Idle animation got honest too: a model's idle is Stand resolved through its own lookup table — never file order, which had the duel flag bobbing on its spawn clip — and an armed idle is culled on the box its animation authors, not the bind pose, so the flag stops vanishing at most camera angles.
