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

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

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

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

Sam SungandClaude Opus 5.5 c2fc3cf304 OnShow and OnHide fire children first, and after OnLoad, as in 1.12.1 (#842)
Show and hide propagated a whole subtree first, then fired from a snapshot, parent first: a parent's `OnShow` ran before its children's, and a child hidden by an earlier handler still got its `OnShow`. A frame visible at the end of its load got no `OnShow` at all.

In 1.12.1 show `0x76ae10` and hide `0x76ad50` mark the frame, walk the live child list re-checking each child's gate, and fire the frame's own handler last (`0x76aef5`, `0x76adfd`). The post-load hook fires `OnShow` after `OnLoad` for a visible frame (`0x76a3b3`), from XML and `CreateFrame` alike.

Now handlers run inside a live post-order walk, and the post-load `OnShow` fires. Tests cover the order, a sibling hidden mid-walk, and one or two `OnShow`s after a load; they fail without the fix. Four existing tests' expected orders flip to the reference's.

Sam SungandClaude Opus 5.5 0f36374445 The core loads the player's own FrameXML.toc in its order, and the boot VM loads no Fonts.xml (#568)
The core now loads the player's own `Interface\FrameXML\FrameXML.toc` off their chain, row by row in its order (`0x6edb90`, from `UI_Init` at `0x48ffed`), instead of benilla's copy of the list, and `benilla.toc` is gone. Order is observable in 1.12.1: event listeners run in registration order, children are kept in creation order, and hit-test ties go to the earlier frame.

- The world VM starts bare: `GlobalStrings.lua` and `Fonts.xml` load as the toc's first rows. The boot VM keeps `GlobalStrings.lua` and the emote tokens, and no longer loads `Fonts.xml`, which nothing reads there (#307).
- A chain without `FrameXML.toc` builds no stock UI and still loads the layer and addons, as the reference does (`"Couldn't open %s"`, severity 2, return unread); benilla reports it as an error.
- Every test kit now loads in the production order, `FrameXML.toc`'s rows then `layer.toc`'s, and a guard fails any kit that loads out of it. Two tests whose premises the stock order disproves are gone.
- `scripts/smoke.sh` counts VMs by the VM marker, since `Fonts.xml` now loads once per world VM.

Verified: new tests for the load list against the chain toc and a reordered fixture toc, the missing-toc case, and two stock frames on one event running in the toc's order (ExhaustionTick before PlayerFrame on `PLAYER_UPDATE_RESTING`), each failing on main's order. A before/after dump of globals, frames, draw order, event listeners and saved variables differs only in stock-order effects: the reordered listeners and children, draw-order ties between non-overlapping frames, and `UnitPopup`'s quality colours now sharing the live tables. `scripts/gates.sh` and `scripts/smoke.sh` are green, and live before/after runs show 0 errors and identical warnings. Built on macOS; no platform seam touched.

Sam SungandClaude Opus 5.5 476da9b2f0 GetAuctionItemInfo names the bidder on the player's own owner-list auctions, nil until the name lands, and 1 or nil on every other row (#259) (#492)
The auction house's Auctions tab now names the high bidder on each of your auctions, and shows "No Bids" only for an auction with none, as in 1.12.1; before, every auction read "No Bids".

`GetAuctionItemInfo`'s eleventh value follows `0x4cee40`: on the owner list, for a row the player owns (`0x4cf12a`-`0x4cf142`), it is the bidder's name from the name cache (`0x4cf144`-`0x4cf174`), nil with no bid (`0x4cf150`) or while the name has not arrived; on every other row it is 1 when the player holds the bid, else nil (`0x4cf17b`-`0x4cf1a0`). A bidder name that arrives later refreshes the list with `AUCTION_OWNED_LIST_UPDATE`, the event the reference's callback `0x4cf2b0` fires. vmangos sends the bidder guid with each row (`AuctionHouseMgr.cpp:840`).

Sam SungandClaude Opus 5.5 4f8350c9ed String literals and test names in benilla-app carry no record numbers (#368)
The strings pass for `benilla-app`, the last crate: string literals and test names lose the private record numbers and the workspace's words that a comment pass cannot touch.

Fixes #92. Fixes #36.

- **Messages.** About 230 assertion, panic, `expect` and log messages, printed tool labels, and comments inside embedded Lua fixtures drop their record numbers; the eight that named "the director" keep their fact in plain words. Stale claims in a few messages are corrected on the way (a cast-bar step, a font line, the every-shot recompute).
- **Names.** Seven test and helper names that carried a record number or "director" now say what they check. `git grep` found no other use of any of them.
- **Player files.** The key-bindings file's header and `config.toml`'s header each lose a record citation. Neither header is compared when the file is read back: the bindings reader skips every `#` line, and `config.toml`'s header is a TOML comment.
- **Fixtures.** Test fixtures use neutral character, account and frame names.
- **#36.** The quest-material test labels GameObject type 10 GOOBER (in 1.12, 3 is CHEST, 9 TEXT, 10 GOOBER); the code under test was already right, and the comments were fixed with the comment pass.
- **Verification.** With comments stripped and every literal's contents masked, each file is identical to main and keeps its literals' line counts, apart from the renamed functions and one rustfmt reflow. `cargo fmt --check` is clean.

Sam SungandClaude Opus 5.5 1d1f0a2c03 Comments in benilla-app, the glue screens, harness, settings and the rest: one line of fact each, no history, no record numbers (#365)
Part of #41: the last of five `benilla-app` pieces. This one is everything the others did not cover: the addon harness, the settings registry, the glue screens (login, realm list, character select and create), key bindings, the minimap, nameplates, the loading screen, transports, the performance instruments, the smaller modules, the integration tests, and the UI asset files (`OptionsFrame.xml`, `benilla.toc` and the rest). Their comments are rewritten to the rule in `docs/METHOD.md`, which is what the code does and the reference fact behind it, in a line. 27,351 comment lines become 11,010.

Fixes #33. Fixes #103.

- **The mechanical strip.** The citations that were only a private record number go first, and each edit is shown to be a pure removal.
- **Wrong facts corrected.** The rewrite corrects the comments that stated wrong facts. Among them:
  - The weapon trail's emissive is 0 (`0x70ca30`): the trail is a type-5 render record, so its ambient-only light term is exact.
  - The camera-style dropdown writes "1", "2", "0" (`UIOptionsFrame.lua:525,536,547`); several register-site addresses in the settings table are corrected.
  - The graphics settings are held until `RestartGx`, as in 1.12; `Fonts.xml`'s early load no longer carries a false reason.
  - vmangos sends a player-name invalidation after a rename (`CharacterHandler.cpp:839`), and the cinematic camera's announce packet has an empty handler there (`MiscHandler.cpp:919`).
  - Stock FrameXML and GlueXML line citations are checked against the stock 1.12 files, and vmangos line citations against the pinned revision.
- **Deviation labels.** "Deviation:" now marks only a choice with its recorded reason. Declining to copy a reference defect is stated plainly, and so is an unbuilt behaviour or an untraced one.
- **Verification.** Every file strips to identical code, apart from test literals in `login/`, `death/` and `ui_script/death_tests.rs` that now use placeholder account and character names, and `cargo fmt --check` is clean. Six second readers compared every file old against new, restored the facts the rewrite had dropped, and checked each new citation against the code, the stock files, vmangos and the reference.

A second commit corrects one comment in `benilla-ui` (`unit_is_grey`: the reference's exclusion is players only). A third lowers `ui_script_wall`'s ceiling from 45 to 40: five gameplay files named `UiScript` only in comments the rewrite removed, and the ratchet asks for the number to follow.

Behaviour differences the rewrite surfaced are filed as their own issues (#339 to #353 among them). String literals are untouched; they are #92.

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

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

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

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

SamandClaude Fable 5.1 43b282a07c the NPC, loot and quest windows register their handlers
- the six NPC windows — gossip, vendor, bank, trainer, stable master, taxi — register their own packet handlers and net/apply/npc.rs leaves the drain; a handler call measures ~25 ns, so the table can carry the busy families as it is (2318)
- the loot window, the group rolls and the inventory refusal register theirs (2319), then the questgiver panels, the quest log and the party share (2320): 273 → 149 kinds in the dispatch match since the table opened
- the show cascade is pinned against the reference's: ours notifies a parent before its children and snapshots the list, theirs is post-order and re-reads — a recorded gap, held by a test on the auction window (2317)

SamandClaude Fable 5.1 7bb52f7808 a hundred stale claims retire, and text= was never a divergence
- a comment that justifies code by an engine difference is a claim with an expiry date, and the tree had ~96 expired ones across `assets/ui`, `ui_script/` and `benilla-ui` — a hygiene pass, no behaviour change: dangling `Benilla*` names with zero definitions (`BenillaMoney_*` at thirteen sites after 1937/1962 converged the coin cluster onto the stock `SmallMoneyFrameTemplate`; `BenillaGossipRow_Resize`, `BenillaErrorsFrame_AddMessage`, the digit feed 1285 deleted, `BenillaMerchantItem_OnClick` and three more), "the shipped `assets/ui/<X>.xml`" for thirty-odd files the directory no longer holds — it holds nine — each site now naming the chain file that actually loads, `UiPanels.xml` in the present tense after 1988 took the panel manager and the dialog engine stock, and expired self-deprecation: SimpleHTML "a widget kind we do not have" (1337 built it), "benilla has no console" (1948 bound `ConsoleExec`), `Model`'s "seven verbs not published yet" and "`ClearFog` is a guess" (all 23 are published, the carve sits 500 lines below, `UNBUILT` has been `[&str; 0]` since 2027), `frame_flag_gate`'s doc describing four groups of accepted mouse divergences over a `KNOWN` list that is empty (the empty array and its enforcement stay), five comments saying key delivery is not gated on `keyboard_enabled` where `script::keyboard`'s walk filters on exactly that field (1319), `SetRaidTarget` called a verb this house lacks beside an assert that its intent IS queued (1820), two questlog tests deferring to a screenshot for `GetPoint`/`IsVisible` the regions already answer, `benilla.toc`'s "trade still needs four engine verbs" (all four bound, 1966) and its ping `Model`s "this engine draws no pixels for" (2013 renders `MinimapPing.mdx` itself), and `rig_anim`'s `set_paused` naming a booth caller it does not have; and the code the prose was propping up goes with it: `GameMenuFrame.xml`'s six `<OnLoad>` label setters, because `text=` on a `<Button>` is a global-string lookup at the loader's attribute step (0995, built 61 seconds before the file was written) — the buttons carry `text="LOGOUT"`/`"EXIT_GAME"`/`"MACROS"`/`"RETURN_TO_GAME"`/`"MAIN_MENU"` as the reference's own do; `ScriptLogFrame`'s five authored close-button lines, now `inherits="UIPanelCloseButton"` off the chain's `UIPanelTemplates.xml` seated 757 lines above it (1846); and the editbox's 22-line "gap" doc claiming only the self-acquire `autoFocus` path is built and its `false` default unverified — path 1 is 1686's `visibility_focus`, and the default is `true`, byte-read off `flags = 1` at `0x779a29`/`0x779a2e`, so the test named `autofocus_does_not_focus_on_show…` is renamed for what it actually pins (2044)
- the `text=` divergence never existed: `resolve_text`'s doc had claimed since 0068 that falling back to the raw attribute on a GlobalStrings miss was "one deliberate divergence" from a reference that draws the empty string, and read at the byte it is the reference's own behaviour — `FrameScript_GetText 0x703bf0` does return a pre-seeded empty string (`0x882748`) when the global is not a string, but that return never reaches a label, because all three `text=` readers image-wide test it and substitute the raw attribute: `Button::LoadXML` at `0x778c07` (`0x778c31 mov eax,esi`), `CSimpleFontString::LoadXML` at `0x771006` byte-identically, and `0x7292a6`, which pushes `edi` on the empty arm; so the loader changes nothing, the two test comments that had called `PetLevelText`'s "Level level race class" placeholder and `CLOSE` our divergence now name the reference's arm (a real 1.12 client draws them too), and what IS ours is the extra warning on a key-shaped miss (0983 → 0991), a strict addition; beside it, `GetEffectiveScale`'s root factor is 1 not because "benilla has no `uiScale` CVar" — 1804 registered one, default 0.9 — but because the dial is applied at the raster seam, `768/uiScale` UI units of virtual-screen height rather than a scale on `UIParent`, so every coordinate the VM hands Lua is already in those units and the reference's `GetCursorPosition()/GetEffectiveScale()` transcriptions convert correctly with a root of 1 (2044)

SamandClaude Fable 5.1 c94c45115f the window tab goes stock, and the ferry keeps its rider at the seam
- the window tab is the reference's own: `CharacterFrameTemplates.xml` loads off the chain at the reference's toc l.21 — the reference never gives it a toc line, `UIOptionsFrame.xml` includes it, and ours is not the reference's options window, so the row is explicit — and our `CharacterFrameTabButtonTemplate` with its `BenillaTab_Room`/`BenillaTabButton_OnUpdate` settle is deleted, 192 lines; the stock template fits a tab ONCE, in `<OnShow>`, through `PanelTemplates_TabResize(0)`, which needs a `GetStringWidth` that answers inside the Lua call that asked — the engine's synchronous measurer is that, so the settle that re-fit from `OnUpdate` until a frame-late round-trip landed is dead weight; retired with it, the director's call: 1002's structural clamp (`benillaTabRightInset`/`benillaTabPadding`/`benillaTabMaxWidth`, a tab never past its window's drawn right edge) — the reference's only caps are the numbers each window passes `TabResize`, and nothing had set those fields since the macro window went stock; 1004's highlight law is unchanged and now the reference's own text (`LEFT +10`/`RIGHT −10`, two opposing anchors that never consult the width, so both `SetWidth` lines are dead code there and here); measured live on the frame the window opens, main's 115·115·115·115 becomes 89.8·99.3·70.8·75.6 on the character row, 77.9·66.1·70.8·66.1 on the social, 89.8·85.0 on the merchant — each its label's `GetStringWidth()` + 40 — and one frame later the two builds agree exactly, so what goes is a one-frame 115 px flash on every open of every one of those windows (1993)
- the ferry seam: `tick_transports` leaves an off-map transport's transform unwritten — the reference's own freeze, `0x5f5248`'s leg map read against the current map and the return at `0x5f5279` past the pose stores — but 0455's riding worldport composes the rider's world pose as `boat.translation + boat.rotation * local_pos` from exactly that transform, so a client whose path clock had not crossed put the body at Booty Bay's coordinates on Kalimdor, which want ZERO tiles of Kalimdor's WDT: the reported `0/0 resident`, which cannot clear (`is_ready` needs `total > 0`) and cannot re-raise (`focus_resident` takes its vacuous off-grid arm); the fall is a second bug in the same window: `SelfMoveMessage` dropped the wire's `ON_TRANSPORT` tail and `apply_self_move` re-derived the deck-local pose as `world − boat.translation`, which against a frozen source-continent boat is the distance between two continents — consistent while the boat stays frozen, a ~13,000 yd fling off the deck the instant it writes an honest pose, `update_attachment` keeping the ride because the body is airborne and no settle hold to catch it; the rider's deck-local pose now comes off the wire, and `first_cycle_on_map` + `reseek_ridden_transport_at_worldport` seek our clock to the head of the destination map's leg and write the pose in the worldport frame itself, a clock that already agreed left untouched; cleared with numbers: the timetable matches vmangos's to 18 ms over path 241's 350 818 ms cycle, the period is bit-identical to the DB row, the live skew is 32 and 144 ms on the Orgrimmar zeppelin; two divergences kept knowingly — we spare the ridden transport where `SMSG_NEW_WORLD` (`0x401bc0`) destroys the whole object manager, and we hide an off-map boat the reference draws; an off-grid view focus names its map and tile once, a ridden transport whose map disagrees with `CurrentMap` for three frames warns, and the sea-crossing probe sends itself to a dock (`WOW_PROBE_DOCK=x,y,z`) because the fleet's seams are not interchangeable — one path crosses mid-cycle, another at the wrap; why the director saw 38.5 s and not a few frames is still open (N08, 2026)

SamandClaude Fable 5.1 7a825111ab the world map's arrow shows on zone sheets, and UIParent goes stock
- the world map's arrow shows on every zone sheet, and alt-clicking a town jumps there: the stock file creates the player arrow as a `Model` child of `WorldMapFrame` and lays a zone sheet's explored-area overlays as ARTWORK textures on `WorldMapDetailFrame` — one `(strata, level)` bucket, where the draw layer outranks the frame — and benilla drew a model's scene at the frame's own layer-0 slot, so every overlay painted over it (the continent sheet has no overlays, which is why it was the only sheet with an arrow); wow-re's carve: a layer batch carries three sub-arrays — quads, the string batch, a render-callback list — that `0x76fb00` drains in that order, and `0x76d160` registers a model's callback only for layer 2 (`0x76d17f cmp ebx,2`), so a model's scene is ARTWORK content, neither a separate pass nor a layer-0 slot; a `ModelPane` quad now keys at the ARTWORK content rank, which re-orders the pet page's happiness icon (a sibling's BACKGROUND quad) under the pane's scene — the reference's own order, harmless because the bake is transparent where the model is not; a model against a LATER-linked ARTWORK font string in the same bucket is still ordered by link stamp, named not built; and the alt-click jump, which required the topmost frame under the cursor to be `WorldMapButton` itself while the stock file parents every POI icon and blip to that button, now walks up from whatever was hit to the button and takes its rect — the map's own chrome still answers nothing (1992)
- `UIParent` is the reference's own: `UIParent.xml` loads off the chain at its toc's slot, right after `WorldFrame.xml`, sourcing `UIParent.lua` and `LocaleProperties.lua` itself, and our `UIParent.xml` + `UiPanels.xml` — 3086 lines of transcribed `UIParent.lua` — are deleted; the one unbound verb the stock file ticks, `CheckReadyCheckTime`, was already 1989's; back from the reference: all sixty-six registered events and their arms (`PLAYER_CONTROL_LOST`/`_GAINED`, `RAID_ROSTER_UPDATE`, the trade-request pair, `PLAYER_SKINNED`, `GOSSIP_ENTER_CODE`), the ESC ladder as written — StaticPopup, the options window's Cancel, the game menu, `CloseMenus`, `SpellStopCasting`, `SpellStopTargeting`, `CloseAllWindows`, `ClearTarget`, else open — so ESC no longer clears a held cursor item or cancels the colour picker, two arms ours had grown that the reference does not have; the fade/flash/pulse kits walked from `UIParent`'s own OnUpdate in place of three 1×1 driver frames of ours, so a cinematic's `UIParent:Hide()` stops the walks as it does there; the managed bottom-stack positions without our `UIParent_RegisterManagedPositionListener` extension, which no shipped file registered any more; `LowHealthFrame`/`OutOfControlFrame`; and the `firstTimeLoaded` close on re-show; what stayed ours moved out — the window tab template and its OnUpdate settle (1004's async-measure adapter) and `BENILLA_FALLBACK_ICON` to `ScrollTemplates.xml`, 0561's bag verbs to `ContainerFrameAdapters`, the script log's slot row to its own file, `OptionsFrameCancel = OptionsFrameCloseButton` beside the two options aliases — and the Auction/Inspect/Macro/Talent panel rows, verbatim copies of the LoadOnDemand addons' own registrations, go; the reference also decides that the area spirit healer's dialog accepts on show with one CANCEL button, that losing control closes every window bar the reference's exceptions, and that the bottom-bar clearance reads the saved globals `SHOW_MULTI_ACTIONBAR_1`/`_2` rather than the bars' shown state; three integration binaries that kept private copies of the manifest loader use the shared one now (1988)

- 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)

SamandClaude Fable 5.1 f4951470a3 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)

SamandClaude Fable 5.1 058ca4b6c8 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)

SamandClaude Fable 5.1 f0d1bacf0a the help window is the reference's own, and a ding carries nine gains
- the help window is the reference's own `HelpFrame.xml`, and ours was less than half its size, so this is mostly arrival: the category list, the per-category GM and harassment pages, the stuck page, the bug report, the PvP policy line; four things we had built go with the swap — one-click filing from Home, the Home unstick button, the downed-queue refusal message, and ticket abandonment, a capability loss rather than a look change, since `AbandonTicket` exists in neither the binding table nor the 1.12 FrameXML corpus and any return of it goes on top of the stock window; `GMSURVEY_DISPLAY` arrives with no producer, a real 1.12 event (`SignalEvent` `0x5e797b`) whose whole UI is a LoadOnDemand addon not on our chain; and the stock file needs two orderings ours did not, the micro-button row before its GM status ask and the buff frame before its repoll timer (1889, superseding 1687)
- the cast bar, the action-button regions and the font registry are the reference's own files too: our `CastingBar.xml` was `CastingBarFrame.xml` under another name, with the literal "Failed" where the reference reads the `FAILED` GlobalString (1886); `ActionButtonTemplate.xml` seats above our `ActionBar.xml` because the later-registered template wins, and it declares zero scripts, so the regions migrate while the handlers stay ours until `ActionButton.lua`'s verbs do (1887); `Fonts.xml` is manifest entry 0, all 51 fonts match by name, and its one real difference, `ITEM_QUALITY_COLORS`, moves to UIParent where the reference declares it (1888); the harnesses were the real cost — those reading our files off disk could not name a chain file and now read through the manifest's own rule — and the event-producer gate, having cried wolf at the cast bar's `SPELLCAST_INTERRUPTED` fired through a variable, now matches the fired tuple's shape
- of the 189 events benilla fires, three are not in the client — `BAG_UPDATE_DELAYED` (a Classic Era name), `LOOT_UPDATE` and `UPDATE_LOOT_ROLL` (invented here, no listener anywhere) — found against the reference binary's own string table, and a gate now fails any fire of a name the client cannot dispatch unless it wears a `BENILLA_` prefix (1883); two payloads the reference gives that we did not: `UNIT_HAPPINESS` carries its unit token, without which no `UNIT_*` consumer reads it, and `CHARACTER_POINTS_CHANGED` carries the point deltas `ChatFrame.lua` compares unguarded, so nil raised (1884); and `PLAYER_LEVEL_UP` carries all nine — level, health and mana gain, talent points (not on the wire: the client derives `(newLevel >= 10) ? 1 : 0` at `0x5e407c`) and the five stat gains — matched to the ding by level, a demotion's absent gains sent as zeros since a nil raises where a zero reads as no line
- the chain gap report could not run — one of its six probes had no player seated where a stock addon formats `UnitName("player")` at load, the other five each carrying an identical copy-pasted seed — and the repaired instrument prices each window's cost: 13 stock files load clean with nothing missing (the action bars, the cast bar, the fonts, the help, friends, game-menu and sound-options windows among them) and the near ones name their missing verb, with "loads clean" still not "swapped" (1885); and `UpdateNameplates`, recorded as the missing engine verb blocking the UIParent keystone, is FrameXML — defined in `UIOptionsFrame.lua`, absent from the binding table, its whole body four nameplate verbs that are already ours — so it is twelve lines transcribed into our options frame, the reference's own Show-then-Hide no-op included (1890 corrects 1878)

SamandClaude Fable 5.1 7e68267395 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)

SamandClaude Fable 5.1 b45bce8184 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

SamandClaude Fable 5.1 7308046d60 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

SamandClaude Fable 5.1 112e82d276 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

SamandClaude Fable 5 c4f432d0c3 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

SamandClaude Fable 5 ab235bad6e the target-of-target frame, and talents can be unlearned again
- the target-of-target frame and its option: 1.12's frame with its five display modes, fed one hop off the selected unit's own target field through the same read `/assist` runs, in four feeds (snapshot and transitions, the debuff buttons, the portrait booth, TargetUnit's click arm); ships off, as 1.12 does, on its own pair of saved globals
- talents can be unlearned again: the trainer's `MSG_TALENT_WIPE_CONFIRM` had no handler since the wipe flow was deferred, so the gossip line closed the menu and did nothing — the question is an NPC session (walking away retracts it), the popup shows the cost on the StaticPopup money variant, Accept answers it behind the client's own purse check
- Sprint's sparkles hang in the air behind you along the trail instead of collapsing into your torso: ride-vs-trail is the emitter's own file flag 0x10, not the host class — the finding wow-re returned eighteen days ago and nobody folded; the particle dump names the two flag bits it had been mis-reporting
- `/sleep` takes both movement masks (the strictest posture), correcting the day's sit gate which let you lie down on a lake bottom while `/sit` was refused; a Lua-driven selection (TargetUnit on an attackable token) starts the swing exactly as a click does, through the one select path

- the auction house end to end: right-clicking an auctioneer opens Browse/Bids/Auctions on the server's reply — search, the category tree from your own DBCs, the reference's 50-a-page pager, multi-key sorting (directions corrected at the bytes), bid/buyout, the sell slot with deposit and duration, cancel with its fee popup; prices sit on the reference's own money-frame kit in lined-up columns, the twenty auction messages split refusals-red / outcomes-to-chat, and a won or sold auction reads as a proper mail receipt — the window's Lua re-worded in our own terms after the overlap ratchet caught the first cut leaning on the reference's text
- the PvP honor system whole: the Honor tab and the inspect page over a real wire model, with current rank and highest-ever rank correctly two different fields
- a day of reported fixes: WASD survives a /logout re-entry, addon settings save on a window close and Cmd+Q (exactly once — a mac close could fire the tail twice), clams open again, random-enchant items name themselves on every surface, the loot window's rows hold their seats with legible counts, idle players stop sinking through building floors, the shooter re-pulls between Auto Shots, portraits loosen ~19% to the client's own aspect-1.0 matrix, and big creatures thump the camera off the CameraShakes table
- character select clicks like 1.12 — captions whiten on hover, buttons fire on release, Humans face straight ahead off the stage bone's real yaw, the facing is per-character, and hunter/warlock pets stand beside you at their family-ramp size with their own emitters (the imp's flames), the Voidwalker's sequence-hidden shackles culled
- the smaller player-facing set: nameplate on/off rows in Options with the CanAttack category gate (emissaries stop plating), the bonus bar slides up with igBonusBarOpen, the camera's framing height glides on a shapeshift, the open letter evicts the centre seat, the far-band fog hull stops printing a pale horizon stripe at low view distance, the guide arrow is gold with per-source rim art, error text fades through its shadow too, and /convertraid converts the party
- README: the auction house and PvP honor move out of "not built yet"
