- loading two LoadOnDemand addons that depend on each other loads both instead of killing the client with a stack overflow; each is counted loaded before its own files run, as on the real client (2139) - the memory report gets its second number, so AceAddon-2.0's memory line (36 copies in the corpus) stops raising and pfUI's panel prints a figure where it printed UNAVAILABLE; garbage collection takes a number and answers nothing, like 1.12's (2136) - a disabled addon you have uninstalled keeps its row in AddOns.txt through a logout, and a hand-edited name keeps its spelling instead of taking the folder's case (2139) - a loaded chunk's error lines name it the way the real client does, and a /console argument containing ]] no longer trips a syntax error the 1.12 lexer would raise (2136) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

//! **Client-identity and script-evaluation verbs** — the small engine globals an addon asks for
|
|
//! before it does anything else (1188 phase 5, prioritised by the phase 6 corpus).
|
|
//!
|
|
//! These are not a guess at what addons want. They are the top of the measured demand list: over a
|
|
//! 218-addon vanilla corpus, `GetBuildInfo` is called by 69 addons and `RunScript` by 52, and both
|
|
//! are called *at file scope* — so a missing one does not degrade an addon, it stops the addon's
|
|
//! very first chunk with `attempt to call global … (a nil value)`. `GetBuildInfo` alone was the
|
|
//! first error for the whole Ace/Atlas/AtlasLoot family, which is a large slice of the ecosystem.
|
|
//!
|
|
//! ## The host-fed pair (decision 1195)
|
|
//!
|
|
//! `GetRealmName` and `GetFramerate` are the next two down that list — 24 addons are stopped dead
|
|
//! by `GetRealmName` at file scope, and it is the **top runtime wall in the corpus** after the
|
|
//! dialect gap. Both read a slot the app pushes, the same shape as the zone-text family: the
|
|
//! engine owns the verb, the host owns the fact.
|
|
//!
|
|
//! `GetRealmName` returning `""` before a realm is known is deliberate and is what the reference
|
|
//! does at the glue screen. An addon keys its saved variables on it (`db[GetRealmName()]`), so
|
|
//! answering `nil` would make that a `table index is nil` error one call deeper — the failure mode
|
|
//! we have been paying for all arc.
