the minimap and world map go stock, and the chat loses its white plate
- the minimap cluster and the battleground list are the reference's own `Minimap.xml` and `BattlefieldFrame.xml`, ours deleted, and the sixteen engine names the static probe found unbound are built, not stubbed: the battleground list and queue family (the as-group join refused client-side with no packet when the map's `MaxPlayers` is below the group), the bodyless `CMSG_BATTLEFIELD_STATUS` on world enter — benilla never sent it, so a queue joined before a reconnect was invisible — the 5.5556 yd `BATTLEFIELDS_CLOSED` leash, and the meeting-stone pair over the `0x295` five-way table with both asymmetries; the ping's lifetime is the stock Lua's now (held 5 s, faded 0.5 s), `GetPingPosition` answers two numbers always — our nil was a Lua error on every frame of the stock `Minimap_OnUpdate` — and the map-change drop the reference never had is gone (1974)
- the world map is the reference's own `WorldMapFrame.xml`, our transcription deleted; built for it: the arrow-frame family (an anonymous `Model` child at its 33.6 px footprint, drawn app-side as the minimap's own arrow sprite through one shared constant), the battleground position family over `MSG_BATTLEGROUND_PLAYER_POSITIONS` both ways (the reference's 5000 ms request throttle), and `GetPlayerMapPosition` resolving `raid1..raid40` where it knew only the party (B320); `SetupFullscreenScale` — the engine binding `0x48c270` the map's and the cinematic frame's OnShow call, which our map had stood in for with Lua — is bound to the carved law `min(0.75 · aspect, 1)` off the configured aspect, written through the frame's own `SetScale` (1.0 at 4:3 and wider, 0.9375 at 5:4); a hovered POI writes the map's own area label, not the tooltip; named gap: `WorldMapPing` draws nothing yet (1980, 1981)
- the tutorial frame is the reference's own `TutorialFrame.xml`, over a tutorial system benilla never had: two bit banks filled from `SMSG_TUTORIAL_FLAGS` — the fire-once bank `TriggerTutorial` reads and sets (never a send) and the acknowledged bank `FlagTutorial` writes and sends; there is no tutorial CVar in the binary (210 `CVar::Register` sites censused), so "disable tutorials" is every bit acknowledged; the sites this app can produce are wired (the world-enter Welcome cascade, the level-up arm, item pushes, the loot sparkle, the meeting-stone and battleground arms), the rest named; the loader learned `<TitleRegion>` — the stock frame's drag handle, a region that emits no quad; and the `TabardModel` widget kind arrives ahead of its window, five ints bounded by the `.rdata` table `{170, 17, 6, 17, 51}` and the constant 100 000 tabard cost (1976, 1977)
- the chat window drew as an opaque white plate: the chat-cache loader, gated on `InWorld` alone, restored into the boot VM 130 ms before the deferred entry load filled it, and its per-VM memo then blocked the restore that would have reached the real frames — the plate the stock Lua tints black stayed the XML's white; between the entry edge and the load there is now no VM in the world (the edge parks the boot VM, the load takes it back), so no in-world feed pushes into a VM with no interface; the perf pill reads `59 fps 7.0 ms 17.3 cpu` — the MAIN thread's milliseconds in full text and the process-wide sum dim, because the sum of every thread's CPU time had been read as a frame time (a raid read 17 on it at a solid 60 with the main thread at 7); and `WOW_PROBE_UI_ONE_TEX=1` is a pricing lever, never a look, for the draw-count ceiling a UI atlas would reach before one is built (1978, 1954)

the tooltip and five windows go stock, and the battleground keeps score
- the tooltip is the reference's own file: `GameTooltip.xml` loads off the chain, ours is deleted, and every verb it calls was already bound, so this is a plain swap; retired with it: the `$parentThicken` plate fill that thickened the plate from the art's ~73% to ~84% opacity — the reference's plate is the raw `UI-Tooltip-Background` tint, and that is what ships; the one engine fact the transcription had been hiding: the reference's instance declares no size, and a frame with one anchor and no size resolves to NO rect under the reference's own layout law — our declared size had been a harness crutch (1968); and the dressing room goes stock with `<DressUpModel>` as a widget kind (factory `0x495c00`): a `PlayerModel` plus its own `Undress`/`Dress`/`TryOn`, where `Undress` strips the body and not the hands, and Close is read off the window since the stock OnHide queues nothing (1969) - the mail window and the auction house are the reference's own: `MailFrame.xml` loads off the chain and brings the stationery picker, invoice pane and autocomplete ours had left out; the stationery family is built off wow-re's carve over a list computed off `Stationery.dbc` rows × the player's bags (`0x622270`, not the bank); the selection rides `CMSG_SEND_MAIL` field 6 and a send with none silently aborts; its two events fire where the client fires them (1970); `Blizzard_AuctionUI` loads on demand from the `AUCTION_HOUSE_SHOW` arm, and three root fixes its Lua surfaced: `GetAuctionItemClasses()` is static — read at the addon's load, before any session, so the class tree is a login-scoped push; `SetAuctionCompareItem` (`0x535d70`) on the vendor compare's one body; `NEW_AUCTION_UPDATE` resets the create form; its dressing-room pane shares the app's one room (1971) - the battleground keeps score: `WorldStateFrame.xml` loads off the chain and ours is deleted; the stock file is three things where ours was one: the readout, the capture bars, and the battleground scoreboard this client never had, built off wow-re's round — `MSG_PVP_LOG_DATA` both ways (throttled to 5000 ms client-side, `0x4aa170`) and `CMSG_LEAVE_BATTLEFIELD`; eleven score verbs over a board the app pushes, where the filter is a SORT, not a compaction — team first, killing blows descending, deaths ascending, honor descending, name — so the filtered count shrinks while `GetBattlefieldScore` still reaches every wire row; `HIDE_OUTDOOR_WORLD_STATE` joins the options uvar block, a capture point is a bar, and the scoreboard and battlefield-minimap toggles become bound specs at the install's own `SHIFT-SPACE`/`SHIFT-M` (1972) - the trade skill and craft windows go stock as `Blizzard_TradeSkillUI`/`Blizzard_CraftUI` on demand, from the reference's own UIParent arms; our two transcriptions are deleted; the four item-link verbs are built off wow-re's carve on the client's link builder (`0x52adb0`) — zero values on any miss, `GetTradeSkillReagentItemLink` raising Blizzard's own typo'd Usage, kept, and `GetCraftItemLink` the `|Henchant:` link in fixed white; `SetTextColor`'s channels coerce nil to 0 on FontString, Font and Button where ours had raised (1973); and the Inspect, Talent, Macro and Raid addons load on demand — `benilla.toc` lists no `Interface\AddOns` row, and below level 10 the talent addon is never even loaded; the gates walk every reached addon and found `Blizzard_GMSurveyUI`'s four engine verbs nothing answers, reachable only through `GMSURVEY_DISPLAY`, which nothing fires (1889; 1967) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

coins ride the cursor, and the trade window and combat text go stock
- coins ride the cursor: `MoneyFrame.lua`/`.xml` load off the player's chain, and the stock kit reads the cursor's coins at load, so the money cursor — payload mode 2, the copper at `[0xb4e2f0]` — is the engine's: `PickupPlayerMoney` puts coins on the cursor and the purse is never debited, and `CoinPickupFrame.xml`, the shift-click coin dialog nothing of ours had ever answered, joins; wow-re's round then set the law: the pickup raises on a non-number and refuses silently on zero, lost control and more than the purse; `AddTradeMoney` folds the coins into the offer as an absolute `CMSG_SET_TRADE_GOLD` gated on the purse; the send-mail setters and `GetCoinIcon` answer as the bytes do; the coinage-change reflex trims an offer the purse no longer covers; and the four send-mail pickup/drop verbs the stock table names do not exist in 5875, so they are not built (1962, 1965) - the trade window is the reference's own file: `TradeFrame.xml` + `TradeFrame.lua` off the chain, ours deleted; `GameTooltip:SetTradePlayerItem`/`SetTradeTargetItem` (`0x5341e0`/`0x534410`) render the slot's item the way the loot slot's is, and `TRADE_PLAYER_ITEM_CHANGED`/`TRADE_TARGET_ITEM_CHANGED` — which the stock file repaints one slot on, and nothing had fired — fire per changed slot beside `TRADE_UPDATE`; the stock file brings the chain's own `MoneyInputFrame`, a TARGET_TRADE `SmallMoneyFrame`, `ItemButtonTemplate` slots and the enchant slot's own wording — "Item not yet modified" where ours had read "Will Not Be Traded"; the wire's enchant id is not carried into the slot yet, so the tooltip shows the item without its enchant (1966) - the dialogs' verbs, as the bytes define them: nine of the ten stock `StaticPopup.lua` bindings 1960 had left named are built off wow-re's round with their packets, events and UIParent arms — the bare trade pair, `ForceLogout`, the instance-boot timer (whole seconds), the area spirit healer's accept/cancel/time, `AcceptBattlefieldPort` out of a three-slot queue `SMSG_BATTLEFIELD_STATUS` fills, `CancelMeetingStoneRequest`, and the pet trainer's pair as the talent wipe's twin, latch for latch — `SMSG_PET_UNLEARN_CONFIRM` latches and asks, `ConfirmPetUnlearn` sends behind the money gate, `CheckPetUntrainerDist` reads the leash; not built, named: the healer's proximity scan (`0x4923b0`: 20 yd to acquire, 22 to retain), so no healer is cached yet, and `ReplaceTradeEnchant`, which rides trade-slot enchant targeting this engine does not build (1963) - the scrolling combat text is the reference's own `Blizzard_CombatText`, LoadOnDemand off the chain: our transcription is deleted, and the addon loads through `UIParentLoadAddOn` at the reference's own sites; the family's fourteen defaults move to the options file where the reference keeps them, because a LoadOnDemand addon cannot define the options that decide whether it loads (1964); and the Looking-for-Group pair is what the bytes define, correcting 1959's flag: `SetLookingForGroup` takes three (type, entry) pairs and a comment, packs each slot as `(type << 24) & entry` — an AND (`0x4e9713`), so every admissible input stores zero — and sends `CMSG_SET_LOOKING_FOR_GROUP` only when the commit changed something; `GetLookingForGroup` answers three nilable slot names then the comment, never 1|nil; and the stock 1.12.1 UI never calls either — both call sites sit in an XML comment (1961) 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> |

the quest windows go stock, and the 20 ms frames were mis-split pairs
- the quest giver's dialog and the quest log are the reference's own `QuestFrame.xml` and `QuestLogFrame.xml`, run off the player's chain at the reference's own toc seats; our 1366-line and 1999-line copies are deleted, and the verbs the stock files call are built — the four `GameTooltip` quest-item and reward-spell setters, the reward spell itself (parsed on all three packets and dropped by the model until now), and two verbs; the detail pane could never scroll because `UpdateScrollChildRect` measured a frame late where the reference's measure is synchronous, so it measures through the installed font engine now; and ten things the reference does that ours did not, each found by a test that had enshrined ours — a shift-click never selects, an empty log hides the whole detail pane and says "No Active Quests", the abandon confirm lives in the popup registry (1944) - the quest bindings' law, read off the binary and folded back: no 1.12 packet carries a quest background material — `GetQuestBackgroundMaterial` (`0x502230`) forks on the dialog's SOURCE object, an item answering its template's PageMaterial, a GameObject its template data, a creature nil (FrameXML's "Parchment"), the id naming a `PageTextMaterial.dbc` row whose six words are nowhere in the binary; its twin `ItemTextGetMaterial` has the same body, so the reader window already held every piece and the giver's feed runs the same resolve; `QuestChooseRewardError` is game-error row `0x98`, and the row plays `igQuestFailed` first, which the verb now queues; the reward-spell getters' third return is `Spell.dbc` Attributes bit 5 (1161 of 22357 rows set — craft-cast spells set, `Pattern:` teaching spells clear), read off the catalog now (1946) - the "20 ms frames" of a raid, chased to their number: the probe's worst frames now carry their churn (entities, assets, first-play sound decodes, live particles, the GPU reading) and in a Blackrock raid with sound on every one of those read flat; then the same window on the PACED clock — under vsync with pipelined rendering the raw delta is mis-split into long/short pairs that sum to exact refresh multiples, so an alone Stormwind leg read 115 of 300 frames over budget with cpu and gpu both at their means, while the paced clock read 0 skipped frames in every leg; what remains real in the raid is `cpu_p99` at 22–23 ms with sound on; and every submesh the streamer spawns now carries why it is an entity, counted per reason — 5.8k resident ADT-doodad submeshes at the Stormwind auction house, 5.3k of them hidden, three prop families the retained pass declines by rule, each riding every per-`Mesh3d` sweep for ~0.4 ms of the alone frame (1947) - a raid's dozen voices cost the mixer ~1.5 ms of every 60 Hz frame: upstream kira spatializes every frame — normalizes, the attenuation curve and a dB→amplitude `powf` per frame per spatial track, two more `powf`s for the volume tween, ~1.7 M `powf`s a second at 48 kHz × 12 tracks for gains that change imperceptibly across a chunk — so kira 0.12.1 is vendored with one patch: the spatial gains and the volume × fade amplitude are evaluated at the chunk's two ends and interpolated across its ~10.7 ms, the granularity FMOD 3, the reference's own mixer, updates them at; nothing a listener can name changes (1945); and rig poses are evaluated in parallel over rigs — each reads its shared clips and writes only its own pose, and a raid's ~400 live rigs were 0.4 ms of one thread walked serially on the main thread's critical path (1947) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the action bars are the reference's own, and a gift can be wrapped
- the action-bar cluster is the reference's own: `MainMenuBar.xml`, `ActionBarFrame.xml`, `MultiActionBars.xml` and `BonusActionBarFrame.xml` run off the player's own chain, and our `ActionBar.xml` (2047 lines), `MultiBars.xml` and `StanceBar.xml` are deleted — three, since the stock bonus-bar file declares the shapeshift bar too; one engine verb, `ChangeActionBarPage`, fires `ACTIONBAR_PAGE_CHANGED` and nothing else; one load blocker: stock `MultiActionBars.lua` writes the options window's table from its OnLoad, the reference's own load-order hack, so our options window moves to the reference's toc slot; and ten things the reference does that ours did not: an empty button is HIDDEN while showgrid is 0, the bonus overlay sits one pixel right of the main buttons, every slide takes one frame more than its time, and `ActionButton_ShowGrid` ghosts EVERY ring, occupied included (1938) - a gift can be wrapped: right-clicking wrapping paper fell through to plain use and sent `CMSG_USE_ITEM`, so nothing happened — you could receive a gift and never give one; the wrap is a displayed-cursor MODE plus a stashed slot, never a payload, so `CursorHasItem()` stays false and every stock gate on it stays shut: right-click arms it, a left-click on a bag slot sends `CMSG_WRAP_ITEM`, and the client applies no eligibility test — the server's `ERR_CANT_WRAP_*` reasons are the error line (1934); a duration-limited item counts down: `SMSG_ITEM_TIME_UPDATE` parks a deadline and the tooltip's `ITEM_DURATION` line runs the enchant countdown's bucket ladder, so "Duration: 1 days" is what the reference renders; an update for an item we do not hold is DROPPED, no queue (1933); and a renamed crowd-control refusal names its mechanic — "Can't do that while stunned" — off `SpellMechanic.dbc` (1943) - a creature paths on a boat: `SMSG_MONSTER_MOVE_TRANSPORT` carries the transport's guid and deck-local coordinates, and is the attach/detach edge; a deck sample lands on the rider or nowhere, never as a world write a few yards from the map origin; and "there is no terrain under a boat" turned out wrong: the ground probe admits GameObject meshes — a boat's `.wmo` is a GameObject, so the probe hits the deck (1936); `MSG_MOVE_TIME_SKIPPED` is read, not dropped — the reference adds the lag to the observed unit's last-wire stamp, so dropping it scheduled their next packet `lag` ms late, a hitch for every player who stalled zoning in near us; and our own settle hold reports once (1935); and the tradeskill tool order was backwards — focus FIRST, so every two-tool recipe had read "Blacksmith Hammer, Anvil" for the reference's "Anvil, Blacksmith Hammer"; the focus's `hasTool` is 1.0 in the reference too (1942) - the crowd's second sitting, instruments first: the probe line carries the tail — cpu p95/p99 and the six worst frames — because a mean under budget hides the one frame in twenty over it (raid legs railed at 16.67 with p95 at 18–20 ms) and whether that frame was work or a wait is the first question about a stutter, and the visible meshes are counted by lane; then two cuts — a terrain tile furnishes as 4×4 cells of 4×4 chunks, one mesh, one entity, one draw per 133-yd cell instead of per 33-yd chunk (a city horizon is over a thousand chunks a frame, and a cell changes nothing a pixel can see; Stormwind 10.55 → 10.32 `cpu_ms`), and an authored point light is our own `WorldPointLight`, not Bevy's `PointLight`, which was only a data carrier while Bevy ran its whole light lane over every lamp, ~2 % of the alone frame; the sitting's record is 1945, and the code says so (1945) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Linux and Windows get their sound back, and emotes refuse while moving
- every build off macOS has been silent since the 09-02 snapshot (B356): the non-macOS device layer was a stub that opened nothing, and nothing had ever compiled the client for another target; that layer is now the same output stream over cpal — one seam, not two stacks: the ring, the render thread and the rebuild-on-device-change loop are one code on every platform, only the device file differs; the audio thread never allocates, a lost or changed default device is noticed at kira's own cadence, and realtime is `SCHED_FIFO` on unix and MMCSS "Pro Audio" on Windows, either refusable, the ring turning a refusal into a degradation; and the two instruments this bug says were missing exist — a Linux and Windows cross-compile under `clippy -D warnings`, and a live output test that opens the real device and asserts the ring never ran dry, because compiling is not sounding (1920) - an emote that requires standing still now refuses on the move: `CheckEmoteEligible`'s `0x4000` arm writes an out-param that `DoEmote` turns into a red "You can't do that while moving!" and aborts; 20 emotes of 78 can raise the line, read off the shipped `Emotes.dbc`; SWIMMING is not in the mask, so a swimmer holding still emotes fine, and `IsSelfControlled` is TRUE for an ordinary player, so a feared or confused player emotes away happily (1904); and the cast path gains its equipped-item rung — the button greyed and pressing it still sent: the reference short-circuits to "fits" on four gates, not one, the miss being a zero `EquippedItemSubClassMask`, which means no item required at all, and the rung sits above the crowd-control validator, so a player both stunned and missing the weapon is told about the weapon; that ladder has six arms, not three — CHARMED, FLEEING and CONFUSED join (1925) - the quest reward's money is the reference's own widget: the tail of the shared `QuestFrameItems_Update` drives `questState.."MoneyFrame"` through `MoneyFrame_Update`, and the two hand-built coin trios become one `MoneyFrameTemplate` instance each at the reference's anchors, which our coins already used; the progress panel stays on coins, being the required-money flow, not the reward one (1928); and the flight master's `!` joins the questgiver sweep, because the green `!` and the gold `!` are the SAME slot, `unit+0xb2c`, torn down once before both queries re-issue; the mouseover re-ask is refuted — the only taxi-status sender has one live caller — and the two queries are not symmetric: the questgiver's goes out on every sweep, the taxi one only when the unit's key moves or on a full sweep, as the wire shows at Dungar Longdrink: 68 questgiver status queries against 1 taxi-node one (1918) - `GetSpellTabInfo` out of range answers `nil, nil, 0, 0` — the reference returns four values on every path that returns (`0x4b3ce0`), and ours answered a single nil copied from another binding's shape; it matters because stock `SpellBookFrame_OnLoad` calls it unconditionally and then does `id > (offset + numSpells)`, which a nil raises on and (0+0) makes true, hiding every button on the page — the behaviour to match; the argument raises the reference's usage string when absent, and the index truncates toward zero THEN decrements (1931); the perf probe gains a `WOW_PROBE_UNCAP=vsync` arm, because the uncapped present mode is a request, not a schedule — measured, it taxes the number it was meant to pin (11.80 `cpu_ms` uncapped against 14.65 under it), so the default stays uncapped; and the last three test temp paths are keyed on the pid, after concurrent runs raced on one fixed shared file Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

a bot walks on the ground, and a stunned cast never leaves the client
- a bot floating a body-height above the ground in mid-stride (B357): cmangos's Playerbots moves its bots as Player objects under `SMSG_MONSTER_MOVE`, and our ground clamp skipped anything that was not a Unit, so a splined Player kept the wire Z verbatim — and a spline is a straight chord, which over a hollow leaves the body in the air; kind is not a question the reference asks (`0x616620` runs every registered mover once per frame, reading only its own flag word), so one rule grounds every Unit plus a Player from the moment a server spline first moves it, never the body we steer; and a re-sent identical wire pose no longer leaves a unit floating (1921); the body we STEER is a mover too — the reference hands a ride's spline displacement to the same vertical-zeroing step as walking, so the spline owns XY and facing and the ground owns Z, closing a +0.47 yd gap at mid-chord on an Elwynn slope, endpoint included (1927) - the client refuses a stunned, silenced or pacified cast itself, in the requirement validator `0x6094f0` whose mounted and moving legs we already model, before any packet — and the three arms are not symmetric: STUNNED refuses everything, SILENCED and PACIFIED run only where `Spell.dbc PreventionType` declares them, so a silence stops casts and leaves melee abilities alone and a pacify does the reverse; the leg sits above the mounted block and below the equipped-item requirement, so stunned and missing the weapon you are told about the weapon; `PreventionType` is column 165, Auto Shot alone telling it from its look-alike neighbour; the preflight banner splits movement blockers from ability blockers, since a disarm or a pacify touches no movement gate; and the refusal sink is an explicit parameter rather than a ladder field, because a resource reachable twice from one system panics on the first live frame (1903) - a disarm greys what needs the hidden hand: the spell equipped-item test is `0x5f0c50`, walking all 23 equipment slots, rejecting a deprecated or genuinely broken item, and taking its slot mask from `AttributesEx3` (main-hand-only, off-hand-only, else every slot) — DISARMED strips the hidden hand's bit out of that mask, so a main-hand-only ability whose one allowed hand is the one the disarm took has an empty mask and dies, Heroic Strike greyed with its tooltip line red; using a worn weapon while disarmed answers `ERR_CANT_USE_DISARMED`, the client's own refusal at rung 15 of the item-use ladder's 20, above the bind-confirm arm and never a bag click (1903); and two stale claims go — `UNIT_FLAG_STUNNED` no longer says the idle selectors bail on it (0889 had refuted that at the bytes), and the charter's `ShowPetition` arm is rung #9 of that same ladder, read rather than reasoned - `UpdateSpells()` is twelve bytes and all of them are the event: it ends in a jump into the event signal with 0x104 = `SPELLS_CHANGED` in hand, whose repaint is FrameXML's alone, so a no-op would not have been faithful and our own repainting stand-in was wrong in both directions at once; it fires synchronously as the reference's does, at the cost of a fire-path refactor rather than a next-tick queue; `PlayerHasSpells()` is a hard-coded 1, no branch, no store read, pinned to answer 1 on an empty spellbook, where a plausible implementation diverges silently (1924); and three integration harnesses loaded every document against an empty base, so a self-sourcing chain file loaded as an empty shell with every handler missing — none of their lists could fail, so the fix lands with a guard watched failing first, `FadingFrame.xml`, one relative script reference and nothing else (1923) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

an item on the cursor is a sale, and an animation's sound has a place
- right-clicking a vendor with an item on the cursor sells it: `0x5df5d0` asks `GetCursorItem` before anything else and a non-zero answer takes the arm to `CMSG_SELL_ITEM` instead of `CMSG_LIST_INVENTORY`, where benilla sent the list unconditionally — the whole stack, to the clicked vendor, with no merchant-window gate anywhere in the arm; the clear is `SetCursorItem(0, …)` rather than `ClearCursor`, which fires `CURSOR_UPDATE` and leaves the source slot greyed until the server's inventory update (1914); and the NPC you are talking to is not clickable: `0x5f0130` refuses a right-click on the NPC whose window is already open, against a global with exactly two writers — the interaction setter, whose fourteen callers are every one a window opener, and its clear — so the first click always gets through and no double-click is eaten, where benilla re-sent the arm's opcode on every click (1866) - a Hated or Hostile questgiver's `!` now disappears, every `!` blinks off and back on when you resurrect, and the minimap no longer dots a corpse, your own pet or an untrackable unit: the sweep tears down on HOSTILITY, not on the flag — `0x5eb134` is a convergent block reached from two branches, so three incompatible readings had each seen one path — and an escort giver's `!` clearing with its flag is the field watch instead, which B257 now rests on; the dots gain `0x4eaa90`'s three preconditions (1906); the quest log's rebuild is all-or-nothing — the reference makes every rebuild a no-op until its template misses are answered, so a cold log shows empty and then lands in one step, never our `"..."` row per in-flight quest — sorted level then title, case-insensitively, with the `id == 0` group first under the reference's own "Missing header! (quest designers)"; and `GetQuestLogTitle`'s `isHeader`/`isCollapsed` answer 1/nil, not booleans - an animation event has a place, not just a time: the M2 event kernel (`0x719370`) places each fired key through its bone, and benilla carried the when and the what and never the where, so every animation-event sound played at the model root — 149 of 244 `$DSL` records sit off their model's origin, out to 67.6 yd on `Maraudon_Waterfall01.m2` — and the point belongs to the record, not the tag, since 75 models author one tag twice; doodad, GameObject and shake sounds now sound where the key is (1904); and the unit dispatcher's arms do not agree about the point they are handed — footsteps and emotes at the event point (the footstep's material foley stays at the origin), `$TRD` at the origin, `$CSD` at attachment 17 rather than its head-mounted records, `$CSS` at the event point on a hit and attachment 1 on a miss — with `0x623b90`'s attachment-else-bias resolver transcribed table and all (1915) - `GetSkillLineInfo` out of range answers the reference's thirteen-value tuple, numbers in the rank slots, not a single nil — the stock skill window adds two of those slots unguarded straight off `SetSelectedSkill(0)`, so one nil raises the moment it drives us; one shape serves every out-of-range case because the bounds test at `0x4d3675` is a single unsigned compare, and our source had asserted the opposite (1919); the outbound wire is traced by name (`out`, mirroring `in`), a line pushed only after a successful write — a 5-second visit to the Goldshire poster reads as 87 lines (1901); the binding shape gate seats a player and checks the `Unit*` verbs it had been skipping, coverage 220 → 249, all agreeing with the reference (1911); and a UI capture scenario opts the UI in itself instead of photographing a UI-less world and exiting 0, the opt-in answering `false` in a player build that has no harness Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the raid and reputation panes go stock, and a faction header folds
- the raid and reputation panes are the reference's own files: two manifest lines replace our `RaidFrame.xml` (83 of 84 frame names were already the reference's; the tear-off pullouts arrive) and one replaces our `ReputationFrame.xml`; the raid swap surfaced a loader defect (a font object inherited one level down was the 26 unexplained warnings), rehomed `RaidFrame_LoadUI` and two popup dialogs, and reproduces one reference DEFECT: an emptied lockout list keeps its last row painted (1874); the reputation swap moved the WATCH BAR out of `ActionBar.xml`, where it would have shadowed the chain's own, and exposed an ENGINE gap: `CollapseFactionHeader`/`ExpandFactionHeader` fire `UPDATE_FACTION` (`0x4d5dab`) and ours fired nothing, so with the stock pane repainting on that event alone, a fold painted nothing and the header kept its minus — invisible while our own file repainted itself (1875) - a wanted poster is a questgiver on the wire as a creature is, and benilla never asked about one; the RE round came back in two halves: the reference DOES send `CMSG_QUESTGIVER_STATUS_QUERY` for a GameObject, gated on `GAMEOBJECT_FLAGS` bit 2, seen in 20 of 62 sniffed sessions — and it can never render the answer (the status handler's typemask excludes a GameObject, its status slot lies past the object's end, and no poster, sign or plaque carries attachment 18); vmangos DOES answer, so the sweep gains a GameObject arm on the reference's own gate and the apply side refuses a non-unit guid, without which a gold `!` would hang over a poster no 1.12 client draws; two shipped claims fall with it (`0x5eb3c0` is the FULL re-query sweep; a status never suppresses a GameObject's minimap dot), and `WOW_PROBE_GOQUEST` at the Goldshire wanted poster reads the server's 1 then 5, both refused (1872) - the money entry comes off the chain: Trade, Mail and Auction switch to the reference's `MoneyInputFrameTemplate` and its verbs, and our `BenillaMoneyInput_*` kit retires — it was the exact answer while benilla fired `OnTextChanged` synchronously inside `SetText`, and the engine now raises it deferred and coalesced, matching `0x77d3e0` (1831), so the reference's `expectChanges` guard works and our bracket flag was a duplicate; most of the 430 deleted lines are verbatim art — all three windows carried an inline copy of the template's three edit boxes, AuctionFrame a whole second copy; one visible change: TradeFrame now makes the reference's own `MoneyInputFrame_SetMode(this, "compact")` call, which tightens the trade money boxes (Gold 58→56 wide, Silver's offset 26→22, Copper's 16→11), and two stale claims in the kit's comments are corrected, and a verb nothing called goes (1882) - the `UIFrameFlash` family is transcribed — six FrameXML names from `UIParent.lua`, which we do not load — unblocking SpellBookFrame and HelpFrame, which called it into silence; re-arming a flashing frame is a RETURN and `-1` flashes forever (1879); UIParent is recounted — `UpdateNameplates` and the `*_Show`/`*_Hide` family around it are FrameXML, not engine, missed by a survey that skipped the LoadOnDemand addons — so its engine surface is four verbs, not a wall: `GetLocale` answers `enUS`, `IsMacClient` answers nil (the whole verb on the PC build), and `CheckReadyCheckTime` and `RequestBattlefieldPositions` are the two it waits on (1880); and `BasicControls.xml` comes off the chain by pure deletion — ours differed by nothing but line-wrapping and one comment — with `FailedAddOnLoad` and `UIParentLoadAddOn` moving to `UIParent.xml`, their reference home, below their four callers (1881) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

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> |

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 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

- 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> |

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 foam stops at the waterline, and skill bonuses show the right halves
- the foam still washed past the waterline onto the sand after the shore fix: the slope-scaled depth bias ported from the reference's `glPolygonOffset(-4.0, …)` pulls toward the eye as the square of view distance, and what it spends is the wet-cell skirt — whole cells are the unit of liquid geometry, so a shoreline carries liquid-lattice triangles over dry sand (23 cells, up to 7.1 yd inland at the reported beach) held back by nothing but the terrain having drawn first; the tie it would settle does not exist here (our foam patch IS the liquid surface's own triangles — same cells, same winding, identity transform — so the depths agree exactly), and −4.0 is a hardcoded immediate every consumer of that state gets, not the foam lane's number; the slope term is disarmed with an `== 0.0` assert, reproduced three ways at the director's pin (slope 0 stops dead at the waterline, 4.0 washes onto the sand, 64.0 does it wide) - weapon and defense skill bonuses showed the halves the wrong way round: the reader every skill-shaped binding goes through (`0x5ea460`) writes `value + permBonus` and `tempBonus`; ours returned `(value, temp + perm)` — right total, wrong split, which is why no fixture caught it — so a 300 weapon skill with a +5 talent and a +10 aura read 300 (+15) where the reference prints 305 (+10), on the sheet's Attack row and in the Defense tooltip's `(base +x)`; `UnitRangedAttack` is also pinned as a direct call gated on the PLAYER typemask alone, so a pet gets `(0, 0)` - instruments: `water_here` also reports WET cells the ground climbs out of (the skirt a depth bias spends), the foam wake can be laid along a bank (`WOW_WFX_HEAD`) since no shoreline in the game is axis-aligned, `fxview` can stand its subject at any world point (`WOW_FX_AT`) so a blob shadow can be photographed on any terrain, and `WOW_MAP` refuses a name instead of silently falling through to Eastern Kingdoms — `WOW_MAP=Kalimdor` had produced a subject floating in empty ocean that read as a renderer bug Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the character sheet is the reference's own file
- the character sheet is the reference's own — `CharacterFrame.xml`, `PaperDollFrame.xml` and `PetPaperDollFrame.xml` off the player's chain in the reference's own order, 2800 lines of ours deleted — and the one engine verb it needed had no pixels: a bare `<PlayerModel name="CharacterModelFrame">` drew nothing here, so the swap as written would have replaced a working paper doll with an empty rectangle, invisible to every loader and gap check; a `<Model>`/`<PlayerModel>` widget now draws its window's booth, keyed on the reference's own frame names, and the booth mirrors take their yaw off `PlayerModel:SetRotation`'s own state, which is what the reference's `Model_Rotate*` write - what the stock file calls that was not there: `MicroButtonTooltipText(text, action)` (all five tab hovers), the two scripts `CharacterFrameTabButtonTemplate` carries — without them the five tabs are DEAD, since the reference's `PaperDollFrame` is `enableMouse` with a hit inset the tabs sit inside — `GetGuildInfo` on a recognised-but-unresolvable token answering `(nil, nil, 0)` rather than raising (`0x4c9330`), and `UnitAttackBothHands` pushing four values not two (`0x518810` calls the hand accessor twice; the reference's own Lua destructures two and says `FIXME` about the off hand, so no amount of running the sheet could expose it) — both skill verbs clamp a debuff deeper than the skill to zero as `0x5188a7` and `0x519298` do - a gate for the question that bites AFTER a swap: for every chain window, census the bare `name(` call sites across it and its `.lua`, subtract what those define, keep what the reference's own `_G` carries, and require every survivor non-nil in a VM with the whole interface up — `LootFrame.xml` had shipped load-clean and raised at line 85, and the stock character sheet would have raised on the first tab hover; the stock sheet is driven end to end over a level-60 body with a +105 buff, a −12 debuff and a resistance school whose debuff outweighs its buff, at the rendered strings Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

settings boot at 1.12's defaults, and a cold loot no longer errors
- a setting's default is the reference's, enforced: eight player-facing options booted at something a stock client does not — `UnitNameNPC`, `UnitNameOwn`, `nameplateShowEnemies`, `ChatBubblesParty`, `cameraDistanceMaxFactor`, `QUEST_FADING_DISABLE`, `SHOW_BUFF_DURATIONS`, `SHOW_COMBAT_TEXT` — each a defensible "turn this on so I can see it while you build it" on its day and invisible as a set; the CVar table grows a mandatory `Reference` column (Same / Overridden / Deviates-with-reason) that a test checks in both directions, the FrameXML saved-variable store is compared against the reference's own `UIOptionsFrame.lua` off the chain (which found `SHOW_COMBAT_TEXT`, declared inside a table walked by a loop where a grep could not see it), and the wow-re census of all 214 `CVar::Register` sites folded in — `WorldDetail` back to `same`, since `GetWorldDetail` reads only `SmallCull` and the reference's own slider reads Medium at boot - looting on a cold item cache raised `LootFrame.lua:85: attempt to index local 'color'` out of the stock window: `GetLootSlotInfo` answered nil where the reference answers cache-miss SENTINELS — quality −1 (which is exactly why stock `UIParent.lua` builds `ITEM_QUALITY_COLORS` over `for i = -1, 6`), "" for a name in flight, `INV_Misc_QuestionMark` for a display-info miss — and four values on every leg (`mov eax,4` at `0x4c2d07` is unconditional); `GetLootRollItemInfo` takes its own miss tail (`nil, nil, 1.0, 1.0, nil`), `GetItemQualityColor(-1)` reads Common because the compare is unsigned, and the window now WAITS for every item template before opening as `0x4c1cb0` does — there is no repaint path in 1.12 to fall back on, so deferring IS the mechanism - the coin row is quality 0 (grey), not white — `0x4c23a0`'s coin leg falls to `xor eax,eax` before the item-cache read — and its icon walks the reference's six-step ladder (`0x6c6307`: one icon per decade of copper; two of the six were not in our set at all, and the pairs do not fall where "highest nonzero denomination" put them) 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

the vendor and gossip windows are the reference's own
- the vendor window is the reference's own `MerchantFrame.xml`, which took three things in order: the vendor cursor, the coin kit's move, and `GameTooltip:SetMerchantCompareItem` — where `offset` is the ordinal among CANDIDATE slots (empty ones skipped without decrementing) and a candidate matches by item CLASS and never by entry (two of four RE workers read it as an entry match, which would have fired the compare tooltip only when you already wear the identical item, i.e. never, with the window looking finished); two visible changes ride with the reference's rows — the coin columns take `SmallMoneyFrameTemplate`'s own geometry, and only the ICON takes the mouse, so hovering a row's name shows nothing, which is the client's behaviour - the gossip window is the reference's own, and its deferral was wrong: the "2px rows" were a harness gap (a bare test VM with no text measurer, while the app always installs one), not an engine one; four things the reference does that ours did not are pinned — a hidden SPACER row between the quest groups, coded options are NOT greyed (a coded row is clickable, and the send path's missing code is named as its own gap), the row label is the Button's own text, and the scroll child is not grown - the CAMP/QUIT dialogs and the PARTY_INVITE dialog move to `StaticPopup`'s home — the fourth such rehome of a dialog that had lived in whichever window first needed it — and moving them found a real bug: `button1 = CANCEL` captured a nil at load because `CANCEL` was declared below the insertion point, so the popup engine fell back and put "Yes" on the camp dialog's cancel button - three instruments: the gap report stops counting commented-out calls (`ShowInventorySellCursor` blocked the character sheet on three commented lines — a whole RE round spent on an over-report), it runs the load itself and answers in ONE table (29 "free" became 24 actually unblocked), and a shadow report predicts which swaps will fail by intersecting the names our files define with the names the chain files in our own manifest define — 38 collisions across 5 files, ours winning every one Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

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 buff bar goes stock, and gossip quests show their level
- the buff bar is the reference's own `BuffFrame.xml`, and the swap found an engine defect: an empty `<OnLoad>` in 1.12's XML is a BLANK that takes an inherited handler away again (seven such sites across four stock files), which our loader read as "none given" — so the two enchant slots would have painted the player's first buff in the corner and cancelled it on right-click; the first fix then had to be corrected at the bytes (`SetScript 0x7025c0` tests only NULL and empty, and nothing trims, so `<OnLoad>↵</OnLoad>` compiles to a valid empty function rather than storing nil, which any addon calling `GetScript` can observe); `SHOW_BUFF_DURATIONS` is applied once post-load because 1.12 leaves that to `UIOptionsFrame.lua`, which benilla does not build — without it the bar ships a 10px pitch error on every buff - gossip quests come through the reference's four verbs — `GetGossipAvailableQuests`/`GetGossipActiveQuests` returning (title, level) PAIRS, with the two `Select*` verbs indexing into that list — replacing three invented names that sat on the beyond-1.12 exception list; the quest LEVEL was on the wire, parsed and dropped because the invented verb had nowhere to put it, and the reference's order (available before active, whatever the packet interleaved) comes with them - eight more files off the chain as groundwork: `LocaleProperties.lua` (the gendered/plural `GetText` selector that eleven stock call sites read their words through — fifty lines of FrameXML that looked like an engine binding), `CinematicFrame.xml`, the UIMenu kit, the `UnitFrame.lua`/`CombatFeedback.lua` kits (the only two names blocking the stock player, party, target and pet frames), the money-input kit, and `ItemButtonTemplate.xml` — the base every bag, bank, merchant, loot, trade and mail slot inherits; `GetMerchantItemMaxStack` (on the wire the whole time, dropped) and the two trade item-link verbs join the engine - two instruments for the migration: a gap report that reads a stock window's call sites against a LOADED VM and says which engine verbs it still needs (28 windows need none, the rest name 1–5), and the readiness probe's documented false positive — loading a stock window on top of our same-named one leaves `getglobal(name)` pointing at ours while the stock handlers run against theirs, so a failure inside a colliding name is a question, not an answer 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> |

seven more windows are the reference's own files
- seven more windows run off the player's own patch chain: the durability shield (`DurabilityFrame.xml`, with a Rust-side repair for the reference's own stale side-glyph inset the director caught on screen), `Localization.xml` + `GameTime.xml` (so `LocalizeFrames` finally runs from `VARIABLES_LOADED`, and the clock's 24-hour flag comes from where 1.12 sets it), the chat-link tooltip (`ItemRef.xml` — draggable now, and its shift-click arm fills the friend/ignore/who boxes as the reference's does), the mirror timers (`MirrorTimer.xml`, which exposed that our `STATICPOPUP_NUMDIALOGS` was 2 against the reference's 4, so a third breath/fatigue/feign bar could never be claimed), the zone splash with the fading kit, the item-text reader and the combo-point dots — each under the reference's published frame names, which is what an addon reaches for - `AddMessage` swallows a text it cannot use, silently, as the reference does: `0x795590` is a `lua_isstring` gate whose failure edge jumps straight to the epilogue — no line, no error, no record — and stock FrameXML takes that path: a full keyring calls `AddMessage(NO_EMPTY_KEYRING_SLOTS, …)` and no such GlobalString exists in 1.12, so it is a dead click on a real client where benilla put a script-error dialog on it; byte-verified by a four-worker cross-check in wow-re, and NOT generalised — a bad r/g/b/a still adds the line opaque white, only a bad text shows nothing Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the action bars' empty slots go ghost, and a rooted creature stays put
- picking a spell up off the bar no longer blacks out every empty slot: `UI-Quickslot` is a FILLED 60%-black plate, not a hollow ring (decoded off the shipped BLPs — Quickslot2's interior is RGBA 0,0,0,0, Quickslot's 0,0,0,153), and the reference dims it to half alpha in `ActionButton_ShowGrid`, so an empty well now ghosts at 30% black where it read as a hole; the wow-re cross-check then found the reference never UN-dims it (a 3-argument `SetVertexColor` preserves the current alpha at `0x79abd0`, and `SetNormalTexture` reuses the region), so in the real client the first drag leaves every button's border at half alpha for the rest of the session — benilla ends the dim on purpose and records it as the divergence it is (1782) - the bag bar is the reference's own `MainMenuBarBagButtons.xml` (window 3 of the stock-first migration), and the swap found a real bug rather than a move: the reference's `ItemAnim_OnEvent` matches a push against the button's inventory-slot id (20..23) and benilla emitted its own container numbering (1..4), so all four bag-push cards would have silently never played against the stock body — `push_container` now emits the reference's selector (`bag + 1`), which is what an addon expects anyway; beside it, a readiness probe that asks the LOADER, not a grep, which of the 85 stock windows load off the player's chain today (58 do; the 27 that don't name their own blocker) - a rooted, hovering, water-walking or walking creature reached benilla as an unhandled opcode: the twelve `SMSG_SPLINE_MOVE_*` (the observer twin of the ack'd force family — bare packed guid, no ack, any unit) now decode into one MOVEMENTFLAGS word per unit, which benilla kept for our mover and for a relayed player and not at all for a creature, the one body this family is ever addressed to; ROOT wipes the direction bits so the dead-reckon stops walking a rooted body on for its next heartbeat (`0x7c7340`), HOVER clears a yard off the floor without climbing a body already inside that yard (`0x636e81`), WATERWALK elects the liquid surface against the terrain, SAFE_FALL's terminal is 7.0 not 60.148 (`0x7c5d23`), and SET_RUN_MODE's bool is inverted against the bit, folded at the parse; the inspect card names a unit's granted modes in words (`granted rooted+hover`) so a creature resting a yard off the floor reads as intended rather than broken Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Enter World stops freezing character select, and bags close by the law
- Enter World stops freezing the character screen: from the click, the select image stayed on the glass ~100 ms because the loading cover could not draw until the state-flip frame — which cost 60 ms, 57 of it render+present: the world camera's first render of a 3000-entity world on cold pipelines, plus fifteen booth cameras waking on the very frame that owes the glass a cover; the glue now yields the glass on the click's own frame and the world camera (booths with it) holds off until the cover has presented — flip frame 60 → 43 ms and off the critical path — measured by the new `WOW_FRAME_PHASES` instrument, which stamps every phase of a frame and prints the render+present remainder no in-schedule stamp can see - switching to a character you haven't clicked before no longer flashes somebody else's body in their stage — the background swapped the frame the selection changed while the character waited for its whole assembly, so whichever won is what the screen showed (53 ms of the human standing in the orc's stage, and the reverse under a stage still loading); stage and character now commit as a PAIR, loads still starting on the click and an empty stage still swapping at once — on the same cold walk, eight selections make eight rebakes, every one the right body in the frame its stage lands, where before it was twelve with four of them wrong - the bank's six bag buttons repaint again — the stock UI repaints them only on `PLAYERBANKSLOTS_CHANGED`, which benilla fired for the vault's 24 slots alone, so a bag dropped in never appeared and one moved between slots stayed drawn in the one it left; the lock clear becomes its own system ordered ahead of BOTH feeds (resolve, then push, then fire), ending the stuck-grey icon — and `GetInventoryItemCount` is carved as not-the-stack-count: an EMPTY slot answers 1 (a sentinel, not a count), a container past the slot cutoff answers a literal 0 before any lookup (the whole answer to the stray digit on the bank's bag buttons), and an equipped bag answers the SUM of its contents gated on a DBC bit our class-11 guess missed twice — including the Soul Bag, so a warlock's shard count never showed - the bags close by the law: `BAG_CLOSED` is the only thing in all of FrameXML that hides an open bag window, and benilla never fired it, so a window outlived its bag in both bands (equipped and bank); the carve pins the condition — the bag changed AND the slot was occupied — so a swap fires BAG_CLOSED then BAG_UPDATE with the slot occupied throughout, an unequip fires it with the announce suppressed for exactly that transition, and two identical empty bags exchanged between slots still close both windows, because the diff is on the bag's own guid rather than the container state; `PLAYERBANKSLOTS_CHANGED` meanwhile turns out to carry NO arguments — a census of all 485 dispatcher call sites — the slot travels in how many times it fires, and every bank button repaints from its own slot id Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

- the four world broadcasts decode and land — a shutdown countdown, the civilian-kill alarm, a defense-tower capture and the whisper-cap refusal all reached benilla as unhandled opcodes; `SMSG_SERVER_MESSAGE` carries a row id and a fill, never a finished line, so `ServerMessages.dbc` ships (the five sentences a shutdown has, plus the client's own `[%d]: %s` row-missing fallback, which is mechanism, not an error path); the two defense broadcasts are CHANNEL lines, not system lines — delivered once per joined channel whose row carries DEFENSE, the LocalDefense copy zone-matched against the PARENT area while the text names the packet's own — so a character in neither channel sees nothing, faithfully, and since nothing auto-joins WorldDefense in 1.12 an Eastern Plaguelands tower capture reaches only players standing there unless they typed /join; the wow-re cross-check then made the length prefix load-bearing — the client borrows a pointer into the receive buffer and composes NULL on an overrun, so an overrunning length is a refusal here too: the packet drops with a log line, nothing displayed - `BankButtonIDToInvSlotID` is carved: `isBag` is a TYPE test, not truthiness — `lua_isnumber` refuses every non-number tag without ever loading the payload, so `true` takes the same arm as `nil` while `0` and `"1"` take the bag arm — the function is TOTAL (our out-of-range 0 was an invention; the only compares in all 118 bytes are on `lua_isnumber`'s return), and the +59/+39 arithmetic stands confirmed, byte-identical to `ContainerIDToInventoryID`'s second arm - a deliberate right-drag turn no longer stands you while seated — the observation was right and our attribution was wrong: the body-facing commit is refused by two independent gates and the stand arm is skipped outright while the button is held; what stands you is the RELEASE, a press under 200 ms with under 2.25 degrees of yaw dispatched as a right-CLICK whose interact reaches `SetStandState(0)` — this lands the deletion half, with the click's own stand held for one more wow-re answer - a ghost walks through closed doors — the whole mechanism is one instruction image-wide, reading bit 15 through the sign flag to answer "not a collision candidate" for a DOOR when the traced body is a player in ghost form; the bit is a property of whose trace it is, not of the door, so the exclusion rides the two mover-only casts and the set is empty on every living frame — the particle snap, the precipitation probe, the mouse pick and the creature conform keep the door's collider untouched, exactly as the binary leaves them Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <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> |

the bag windows are the real 1.12 files, and /walk actually walks
- the bag windows are the reference's own `ContainerFrame.xml` running off the player's patch chain — decision 1751 makes the stock 1.12 UI off the install the end state and `assets/ui` scaffolding that retires file-by-file (86 files against the 99-file stock corpus, 72% of the 1128-function global surface already built) — via one ordered manifest, `benilla.toc`, where a bare name is a file we ship and an `Interface\FrameXML\` path is the player's own file; the windows on screen are `ContainerFrame1..12`, the bank's six copy-pasted popouts fold into them at ids 5..10, net −750 lines, and the swap forced real engine verbs into being rather than stubs (`SetBagPortaitTexture` with its id-0 no-texture arm, `GameTooltip:AppendText`, `SetButtonPulse`, and a `<Model>` whose file is the cooldown indicator materializing as the native sweep, which three corpus addons inherit) - the 1.12 walk toggle lands: `TOGGLERUN` latches one bit with `ToggleRun`'s own silent refusal chain (dead, rooted, on a live server spline), and the walk animation was never missing at all — the flag reaches it through exactly one channel, the speed (`0x5fd100` picks Walk over Run on `speed > 2 × walkSpeed`); pinning it caught our remote extrapolator with the two min rungs backwards — `min(walk, run)` runs BEFORE the backward min, so a walking backpedaller moves at 2.5 yd/s where we would have played them the Run clip at 4.5 — and one shared `current_speed` now keeps the local controller and the extrapolator from ever disagreeing about it - the instance and raid lockout messages exist — six packets that were dropped as unknown opcodes now land, four of them as the CHAT_MSG_SYSTEM lines the client composes itself, which is why no Lua handler ever surfaced them — plus `IsInInstance`, `ResetInstances`, and the unit popup's "Reset all instances" row behind the reference's own predicate; where the binary contradicts vmangos: the ownership flag means "any instance bind" but vmangos only ever names raid binds, so the row was dead for every character without a raid lockout — term 1 is now also satisfied by our own eyes, walking out of a party dungeon the server itself bound us to - opening the world map showed 3D world at the sheet's margins: `BlackoutWorld` was parented to the very `UIParent` a fullscreen panel hides, and three more frames had crossed the same boundary — the shared dropdown lists (so the map's continent and zone pickers answered a click with nothing at all), the master-looter menu, and the screenshot confirmation, which could never appear during a cinematic; `frame_flag_gate` now checks the parent seat against the reference both ways a frame acquires one (the attribute, template-inherited included, and `<Frames>` nesting), and its first harvest took 30 divergences down to three accepted ones 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> |

being summoned is a dialog, and a soulstone raises you where you fell
- being summoned becomes the dialog it should have been: the summon request was a name-table entry and nothing else, so a warlock's ritual, a meeting stone and a GM's summon all ended with the summoned player seeing nothing — now the three-field question raises CONFIRM_SUMMON and Accept sends the one guid back; the bytes settled three things a reasonable guess gets wrong: the refusal gate is dead OR ghost and lives in the handler (a ghost's wire health is 1, so the health leg alone lets one through — and refusing before the latch means an ill-timed summon can't silently overwrite a live question), the event carries no arguments because the popup re-reads all three getters every frame (the only way the summoner's name can appear after a cache miss), and there is no decline — Cancel, ESC and the clock running out are all silence plus the server's own two-minute timer; exercised end to end by a two-client live probe, the only thing that can, whose final assertion is that you land in the zone the dialog named - self-resurrect is one private field and one bodyless opcode: PLAYER_SELF_RES_SPELL carries the stored spell and CMSG_SELF_RES spends it; HasSoulstone answers the Spell.dbc NAME of that spell, because that is where Blizzard put the button text — "Use Soulstone", "Reincarnation" and "Twisting Nether" are the spells' own names — and UseSoulstone sends on the death dialog's second button; a --self-res probe runs the whole arc on the live wire and measured the thing that matters: the field arrives BEFORE the health-zero flush, which is what makes the dialog's OnShow read safe - the decode's fold-in corrected three claims we were resting on: HasSoulstone has a dead gate that runs FIRST, so a released ghost (wire health 1) loses the button at release rather than the dialog merely hiding; a zero field is not the empty answer — the client walks your carried inventory (gear, bags, backpack, keyring; no bank, no buyback) for an item whose on-use spell self-resurrects, labels the button with the ITEM's name and uses the item instead of sending, the two legs exclusive; and an unresolvable spell id labels the button "UNKNOWN" rather than hiding a self-res the server is holding for you Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

deleting a good item asks in the reference's words
- deleting a rare-or-better item forks to the reference's typed confirm — "Type \"DELETE\" into the field to confirm": Yes starts disabled, the box takes focus, the button enables only while the field spells DELETE, and a reflexive Enter over a half-typed word is inert; the missing engine piece was one hook, the edit box's on-text-changed; beside it, the loot bind-on-pickup confirm — bind-on-pickup AND uncommon-or-better, two conjuncts and no others, so a white BoP drop is taken with no dialog and a bind-on-equip blue never asks here — with the reference's one-pending-slot latch, and the take split into two verbs the way 1.12 actually has it: the row click stays C-side, and LootSlot is only the confirmation's continuation - the message frames get their justify quartet, read out of the binary's method tables (with the Button table re-derived as the control that lacks it); Frame:EnableDrawLayer/DisableDrawLayer and Region:GetDrawLayer land — the disabled layers are a five-bit mask on the frame, so re-enabling a layer restores exactly what was showing underneath; and the Skills tab's children take the reference's names, with SKILLS_TO_DISPLAY published — pfUI loops over it and got "'for' limit must be a number" - the README's roadmap line now names what is genuinely big — battlegrounds and meeting stones, both verified still missing — plus the long tail, because the old line named four features that have since landed and small features go stale on a roadmap within a week 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

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> |

your corpse answers the mouse, and a cinematic's last holes close
- a corpse is a body you can hover, cursor and click: it enters the same ray pass as units with the winner switched on type at publish (the reference's own shape — one trace over every object), the cursor classifier is transcribed whole (lootable-by-me → the pickup cursor, grayed by range; else the insignia leg behind the learned-skill latch; your own body falls through to the clear), and right-click is "not mounted AND lootable" → CMSG_LOOT; CORPSE_FIELD_FLAGS bit 5 is the PvP insignia flag, not "reclaimable" as an old note had it; the widening also caught that a GameObject anywhere on screen could steal the click from a nearer corpse, and that a left-click on a body cleared your target as if you had clicked ground
- the cinematic sweep closes eleven holes: a shot plays its sequence band's WIDTH, not its end — two shipped fly-bys band away from zero and ran long with their opening frames frozen (the Night Elf intro measured 102333 → 102000 ms); CMSG_NEXT_CINEMATIC_CAMERA announces every shot, the first included — the old "between shots" reading meant it was sent NEVER, since every 1.12 sequence row carries exactly one camera; the ack invariant is stated once (one CMSG_COMPLETE_CINEMATIC per accepted trigger, over-acking tolerated, under-acking never — a dropped ack despawns the world around you until relog); the hardware cursor hides for the shot; and the music cut lands in the frame that starts it — it was one frame late, exactly long enough for a first login's zone fanfare to start under the narration and be stamped as played
- RunBinding exists, and a fly-by stops handing the world its mouse: CinematicFrame's OnKeyDown hands the SCREENSHOT chord back to its binding through RunBinding, a global we never had, so every press during a fly-by raised and took no picture; and the mouse was fully live under a shot — right-drag turned the character, clicks picked targets through the flying camera, both buttons walked the body — so the pointer now reads as over the UI while a shot plays
- AdvanceTime and ReplaceIconTexture are carved off the bytes: AdvanceTime really is a no-op in the reference (its one reachable call is mov eax,1; ret), ReplaceIconTexture is a material swap over a model's type-14 texture slots that stores nothing on the widget, and SetModel(nil) RAISES — the "documented clear" our binding claimed was invented, not read; and the addon roster now says WHOSE package is short when a .toc names files the folder doesn't hold — nine of the corpus's twenty-nine load failures are the addon's own manifest, which the real client also shrugs off ("Couldn't open %s", carry on), so they stop reading as our defects

the combat log's wire completes, and PlayerModel is its own class
- the combat log's last eight wire bodies decode — PARTYKILLLOG, SPELLINSTAKILLLOG, PROCRESIST, SPELLORDAMAGE_IMMUNE, SPELLDISPELLOG, DISPEL_FAILED, ENCHANTMENTLOG, SPELLLOGEXECUTE — each layout read off vmangos's own writer and pinned by a byte-exact golden (DISPEL_FAILED carries no count, the list runs to the end of the body; SPELLLOGEXECUTE's POWER_DRAIN row is (amount, power, multiplier), verified at the client's bytes as well as the server's); with the eleven chat types that were waiting on them, 44 chat types become 55 — 29 sentence families, the death pair and the aura rows riding descriptor diffs because 1.12 has no "unit died" opcode, plus the six trailers ((glancing), (30 blocked), (12 absorbed) and kin) that had been missing from every family; also corrected: the durability-death line was going to the red error frame with hard-coded English, and SMSG_SPELLNONMELEEDAMAGELOG lacked its split-damage branch and its blocked wording
- PlayerModel is its own frame kind: SetUnit, RefreshUnit and SetRotation were published on Model, but they belong to the <PlayerModel> method table (0x84f1fc), and the client's lookup chains derived → base only, so a plain <Model> can never reach them — they got there from a strings scan read as ownership, and a strings hit answers whether a name EXISTS, not who owns it (SetUnit's one pooled string is referenced by the PlayerModel and GameTooltip tables and by no Model entry); the new PlayerModel → Model → Frame → Region chain unblocks CreateFrame("PlayerModel"), which is how pfUI builds every unit-frame portrait — and through pfUI, pfQuest and ShaguDPS
- a nil where a number goes is four shapes, not one law: a census of all 408 widget-registrar entries found 62 numeric positions that validate-or-raise, 43 that gate then stage an alternate, 64 that silently coerce to 0.0 and 5 that gate then store nothing — so SetMaxLetters(nil) completes and stores 0, "no limit" (the argument COUNT is checked exactly, the type is not), and the backdrop colour setters are asymmetric on purpose: a nil r/g/b channel is 0.0 but a nil alpha is OPAQUE, and reading every nil as 0.0 would have turned those borders transparent; both setters now also quantize ×255 into the packed 0xAARRGGBB byte quad the client actually stores, so 0.09 reads back as 23/255
- two more addon-killers: LIGHTYELLOW_FONT_COLOR_CODE was the one missing line of Fonts.xml's seven-line colour block (aux-addon concatenates it at file scope and died on its own first line), and the guard now enumerates the whole block l.4-20 instead of the names an earlier round had noticed absent; and the unit frames publish the reference's names — 1.12 has no *PowerBar anywhere, every bar is ManaBar and the colour table is ManaBarColor (8 of the top-20 addons read it by name), so ManaBarColor is the published table our own bars index into, with 22 more regions renamed to the reference's own

the chat dock exists, and alt-arrow keys are declined not swallowed
- the chat dock is a list, not a hardcoded pair: DOCKED_CHAT_FRAMES, SELECTED_DOCK_FRAME and the FCF verbs — DockFrame, UnDockFrame, DockUpdate, SelectDockFrame, SaveDock, SetTabPosition, Close and the button-side trio — are transcribed from FloatingChatFrame.lua, and every "for i = 1, 2" moved to what it meant, the dock or every window; the dock seeds at load from the window record's own docked byte handed to FCF_DockFrame, whose first line IS the reference's early return — transcribing the function that answers the way the reference answers, where an empty stub "because we have no dock" would have been the bandaid; its unconditional re-lock cannot clobber an unlock you saved, because the stored look is applied last; pfUI's RefreshChat now runs end to end - ignoreArrows is alt-arrow mode, and the arrow is DECLINED, not swallowed: the reference's edit-box handler returns unconsumed on an arrow key, so the walk carries it past the box and it runs TURNLEFT — the whole feature is steering while the chat box holds focus, where the old reading left the arrows dead; holding Alt resumes the caret; SetAltArrowKeyMode and its getter land with the reference's own quirk that a missing argument enables while nil disables (the getter answers 1 or nil, never a boolean), SetIgnoreArrows turns out not to exist in 1.12 and is unpublished, and the binding pass gets a named four-key exemption rather than a hole, because the handler consumes every other path - pfUI's square minimap is actually square: Minimap:SetMaskTexture makes the disc's mask state instead of a load-time constant — write-only from Lua, as shipped, no invented getter — where an empty path restores the round default and a failed load keeps the current mask and warns, because either mistake would otherwise hand a mistyped path a silently square map that looks like a feature; and MiniMapBattlefieldFrame grows the Border and Shine regions beside its icon, on the reference's own layers — icon on BACKGROUND, ring on ARTWORK above it, the only order a ring around an icon can draw in — which pfUI hides unguarded to sit the icon flush Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

a cinematic holds your body, and all seven chat windows exist
- 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

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> |

scrolling chat brings lines back, and Onyxia's lava traps spurt again
- every chat scroll re-arms the displayed lines' fade — up, down, top, bottom, page up/down, and a no-op scroll at the bottom too, which is what clicking the arrows on an already-at-bottom chat does; a line at alpha 0 was unreachable for the rest of the session (play two minutes and the chat was empty and stayed empty), because "scrolling off the bottom freezes all fade countdowns; nothing un-fades" had been read as a law about the class when it was a finding about one function's gate; the displayed set only, never the whole ring, with the frame's current defaults, as the reference's re-arm writes them; there is no hover reveal — the scroll re-arm is the whole mechanism; and the fade ramp reads the un-rounded countdown, not the stored f32 - the GameObject animation arm rolls a variation: Onyxia's 104 lava traps and 26 falling rocks author Stand twice — a 29491 : 3276 chain whose second take is the `LAVALUMP2` ember burst — and the arm is issued with `variationIdx = −1`, a weighted random walk of the alias chain, where we resolved the chain head every time (215 emitters, every one at live = 0); and a resting substate re-arms itself through the model's completion callback, so the roll is re-taken every window for ever (~867 ms for the traps) — 45 emitters firing and 1299 live particles at +25 s, a standing field rather than a one-time flurry; 72 of 1582 GameObject models author such a chain (the fish schools, the AQ fireflies, the plague cauldrons, lanterns, mugs) and every one was playing take 1 of N; `benilla-extract goanimscan` censuses it Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

edit boxes take focus the way 1.12 does, and the stable shows its pets
- the caret was a wedge in the line: it sat in flow, four units wide, so focusing a login box shoved its text right by one caret and a caret parked mid-word opened a gap; it is a zero-width seam now with the bar drawn as an overlay (a 0×26 seam and a 5×26 bar at the same x, off a node probe), the way the reference anchors its caret quad over the FontString; a blurred box collapses its selection so only the box holding the keyboard shows one; and a dialog answers only keys pressed while it was already on screen — ENTER on an empty form used to open the error dialog and close it in the same frame - `autoFocus` defaults ON in the reference (the ctor leaves flags = 1, and every one of the ten `autoFocus` attributes in the shipped chain is an opt-out), showing an autoFocus box focuses it after its `OnShow`, and hiding the focused box releases the keyboard — the "never focuses on show" note we had transcribed came from a `call`-only census that missed a tail `jmp`; the loader's flag loop could only ever turn a flag on, so `autoFocus="false"` was a no-op, fixed before the default flipped or it would have grabbed exactly the ten boxes the reference exempts; and the EditBox does fire generic `OnChar` with the spliced string, on every typed or pasted character and never on `SetText` - the stable master's portrait was a black disc (its session was missing from the `"npc"` token chain — the third window to ship that way, so the test is now exhaustive over every `impl NpcSession` and names the one you forgot) and its model pane draws the selected pet: a stabled pet is a database row with no world entity, so a `PortraitStandIn(display_id)` — an entity that exists only to be mirrored — feeds the existing booth code unchanged; plus the registrar's two service rows were hidden by an inherited attribute, a charter's tooltip carries the guild name and master on line 3, and the Help window drops three strings pointing at a company that stopped answering Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

a full realm is a queue to wait in, and the login dialog is centred
- a full realm answers with `AUTH_WAIT_QUEUE`, and it used to be read as a refusal; the grammar is length-branching exactly as the reference's handler has it, so both mangos body shapes parse; the estimate is the reference's own 8-sample ring — divide before multiply, signed, no timer — whose displayed figure climbs while the queue is silent, pinned by a test so nobody "fixes" it; the dialog is the ordinary status dialog relabelled `CHANGE_REALM` (which cancels back to the login screen: no realm list exists yet), and cancelling actually leaves the queue — the IO thread used to keep its place and walk on into character select on admission - the stable master, corrected against the binary: a stabled-pet drag rides the shared cursor at payload mode 10 (the mode census had that row's label wrong), a plain click always returns 1 and a drop always nil, the summoned pet dropped on an occupied stable slot swaps (STABLE was refused whenever both bought slots were full, silently), an unpurchased slot takes nothing, the stabled→summoned fork reads the live pet guid not the row, the client itself sends `MSG_LIST_STABLED_PETS` on the interact leg, `PET_STABLE_SHOW` fires on every list, the selection is a petNumber and every list clears it, and result codes 2–7 do nothing at all - the login dialog's text is centred (a FontString with no `justifyH` is CENTER, and `GlueDialogText` has none), the fifteen-year-dead "see www.worldofwarcraft.com" clauses are cut at the clause, the Login click sound is unconditional (the reference plays `gsLogin` before it checks the boxes), dialog buttons play `gsTitleOptionOK`, the realmlist button's `gsClick` never existed and is `gsLoginNewAccount`, and focusing a login box selects it — a stated divergence Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

guild charters: the registrar, the charter, and the twelve verbs
- founding a guild: fourteen opcodes, eight goldens (four mutation-checked), twelve engine globals, `GuildRegistrarFrame` and `PetitionFrame` — `CMSG_PETITION_BUY` is a 72-byte frame the server reads two fields of and drops in silence if short, `allowedGender` is the family's one u16, a signature is a 12-byte stride not 8, and `MSG_PETITION_DECLINE` writes the charter guid and reads the decliner's — same width, opposite meaning
- two sessions, not one: the registrar is an NPC session (closed by walking away — its show event is one of the fourteen callers of the interact latch, so the registrar turns to face you) and the charter is bound to an item guid you carry across the city; right-clicking a charter in your bags opens it, keyed on template flag `0x2000` (item 5863 has no on-use spell and no quest, so every existing item-use arm declined it)
- the byte carve came back and rescored six named guesses — three confirmed, two corrected, one refuted: `PETITION_SHOW` is deferred until every signer name has resolved (the window never paints blank rows), `ClosePetition` on somebody else's charter sends `MSG_PETITION_DECLINE` ("sends nothing" had been chosen on principle and was wrong half the time), and founding a guild is silent — no `ERR_GUILD_FOUNDER_S`, the reference emits no text at all; the four success ids go to chat and the five refusals to the red error frame, three paraphrased strings are now the shipped ones (a sweep asserts all fifteen), and the `npc` unit token had never been fed — the registrar's name banner was blank; `WOW_PROBE_CHARTER=1` drives gossip → buy → open → rename → destroy live, 10/10

GM tickets are in, and a login failure shows the string 1.12 shows
- GM tickets, end to end: five request/answer pairs, the seven Help-window bindings, three events and `GMTicketCategory.dbc` — the ten categories `HelpFrame.lua` keys 1..10 live in a DBC nothing here had ever opened (the four `TICKET_TYPE` strings feed a dropdown 1.12 never gave a frame); the category is one byte on the wire (a u32 would shift the map id and position and file every ticket at a garbage spot), and `UPDATETEXT` carries it too, which vmangos stores and cmangos swallows as the first character of the text — faithful to the client, the divergence recorded - the engine re-asks for the ticket after a create or update succeeds and on a status push (the ask opcode has three callers in the reference, two of them engine legs with no idempotence guard) — which is why the shipped FrameXML registers no handler for the three response opcodes and still repaints; without that leg the form stays a form for ten minutes; `UPDATE_GM_STATUS` is a signed passthrough (`0xFFFFFFFF` → −1), the five ticket verbs drain through one ordered queue because call order is wire order, and the Help micro button — drawn, hovering and a no-op since the micro menu landed — is live - a typed wrong password reads the reference's long "check the spelling of the account name and password" (0x04 and 0x05 share one jump-table arm — the client cannot say "wrong password", and the lockout cmangos's header describes does not exist in the binary), unknown codes read "Disconnected from server" rather than "Authentication failed", and every realmd row of the old map was in the wrong one: the two login-status enums have two key tables and two dialog paths, and a server source can only ever verify the codes, never which string the client draws for them Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the stable master is in, and master loot hands drops to the raid
- the stable master: `MSG_LIST_STABLED_PETS` both ways, the four mutations answered by one result byte, two slots priced from `StableSlotPrices.dbc` (500 and 50000 copper — the cap falls out of the data, corroborated by vmangos's `MAX_PET_STABLES` and the reference's `NUM_PET_STABLE_SLOTS`), rows seated by slot never by position (a petless hunter's list starts at a stabled row), slot 0 read from the wire because a dismissed pet has a row and no live unit, a re-list after every success because no result carries one, and `GetPetIcon` reading `CreatureFamily.dbc`'s icon column — which ships `Ability_Druid_CatForm` for both warlock families, asserted as shipped - master loot: `CMSG_LOOT_MASTER_GIVE` (the slot is a byte here where the roll family's is a u32) and `SMSG_LOOT_MASTER_LIST`; the click gate is the wire's slot-type byte and nothing else — the reference never asks who the master looter is — so a MASTER row fires `OPEN_MASTER_LOOT_LIST` instead of a take and auto-loot skips every non-ALLOW row; the candidate array is bucketed by raid subgroup into blocks of five (a dense list would have filed every candidate under the wrong "Group N"), an unresolved name is nil so `UPDATE_MASTER_LOOT_LIST` has something to repaint, and a give re-checks the row is still MASTER before sending; found on the way: a master looter in another raid subgroup lit the crown on your own portrait - `SetLootMethod` takes its third (threshold) argument; the reference's silent reset to Uncommon when it is absent is flagged and not adopted; the stable's model pane draws nothing yet — a stabled pet is a database row with no world entity, and a booth that renders from a bare display id is the next arc Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |
