#!/usr/bin/env python3 """Regenerate `reference/1.12-verb-events.tsv` — every FrameScript event the 1.12.1 client fires FROM INSIDE A LUA VERB, keyed by the verb. WOW_RE= scripts/gen-reference-verb-events.py [--wow-re DIR] [--out FILE] **Why this exists.** `reference/1.12-events.tsv` (2140) says what arguments an event carries and `reference_ui`'s two name gates (1883/1889) say whether *something* fires what a stock file listens for. None of them says WHO fires it. That gap is the one B389/2244 fell through: the reference's `SetTrainerServiceTypeFilter` commits through a helper whose whole body is "write the mask, re-run the finalizer, fire TRAINER_UPDATE", the stock `Blizzard_TrainerUI.lua` therefore never repaints the list itself, and benilla's verb set the mask and fired nothing. The name gate was green, because the packet arm fires the same event; the tests were green, because they asserted the mask. Our own retired `TrainerFrame.xml` had been repainting explicitly, so the behaviour left with the file that was compensating for it — and the same shape is waiting in every other window that went stock (1751): a verb the stock Lua calls *for its side effect of an event*. **What a row means.** `verb` is a registered Lua binding (wow-re's `re/audit/binding-shapes.tsv`) and `event` is fired on the verb's own call path in the reference — either from the verb's body (`shape=body`) or from a helper that ONLY registered verbs call (`shape=helper`, `via` = the helper's address; `0x4d8c90` is the trainer's). A helper with any non-verb caller — a packet handler, the cursor, the tutorial signal — is excluded by construction: an event fired from there is a *state* event, which benilla may faithfully fire from its own feeds, and demanding it of the verb would be the exceptions list nobody wants to maintain. Hubs (`ClearCursor` → CURSOR_UPDATE, 49 callers) fall out the same way. **How the enclosing function is found (2257).** A site's function is the greatest start at or below it, over the union of: every function wow-re's ledgers size (`size=` on the `fn` rows of `system/*/ledger.tsv`, ~13k verified extents), the `names-5875.tsv` starts, every `call` target in the full disassembly (`system/ui/scratch/disasm-full.txt`), every registered verb, and every address that follows a padding run — an `int3` run anywhere, or a `nop` run that follows a `ret` (MSVC's inter-function padding; a `nop` run after a `jmp` is a loop head and is NOT a boundary, which is the phantom-start trap the first derivation fell into). Then the extent check: a site that lies at or past `start + size` of a sized function is left UNATTRIBUTED rather than handed to that function. Validated against the ledgers: of ~26k padding-derived starts, 49 fall strictly inside a sized function, all in a handful of oversized rows. The first derivation (2251) had neither the extents nor the `ret`-`nop` rule, and four of its rows were wrong the same way: a fire site in an item-cache *callback* reached only by function pointer (`0x4ce2f0`, `0x4cba50`), a site past a verified extent (`0x4a7835` beyond `0x4a7620`'s 191 bytes), and a fire on a shared stop path past its worker's 34 bytes (`0x48f095`). The two families dropped explicitly below are unchanged: glue-space verbs (the GlueXML registrar; 0x46a000..0x476000, the range 2140's `GLUE_SITES` lie in) and the unit-field bridge / token fan-out ids below 0xb6, which are state events by definition. **A floor, not a census.** No row for a verb is not a claim that the verb fires nothing: the fire-site census is over the two signal helpers' literal call sites (its header says so in capitals), and `shape=helper` stops one call deep on purpose. Gate on what IS here. The fire sites and the binding shapes are the vendored `reference/` tables; the function names, the ledgers' extents and the disassembly are the RE repo's (`--wow-re`, or `$WOW_RE`), and the disassembly is the client's own binary, so this is a manual regeneration there. The committed table is the surface benilla tracks.
