BGG application approved. The migration the stub markers guarded for
weeks: both synthetic caches deleted; tests/fixtures/bgg_cache
re-recorded from the live API (recording list extended to every
scenario the suite exercises — Civilization truncation, the Sorcerer
SPI tiebreak, StarForce, Flat Top's thematic year, Alice Is Missing's
rpgitem fallback); resolve --force re-matched all 133 titles for real
(109 auto, 6 ambiguous, 18 unmatched, 30 edition ballots);
data/STUB_DATA.marker deleted with its exit condition met — the guard
mechanism stays armed should stubs ever regenerate.
Reality fixed one bug and taught one lesson. The bug: a multi-type
search lists an expansion twice (once per matched type) and the parser
kept the generic boardgame entry — parse_search now dedupes by id
preferring the specific type, which is what keeps expansion tagging
(the base-vs-expansion review guard) alive on real data. The lesson:
hand-built ambiguity is tidier than the real thing — Wingspan has 46
versions with three plausible English Stonemaier printings, so the
suite's synthetic version ids and version_auto expectations became
real ballots (assertions updated to recorded reality; the cue-plumbing
test keeps its crafted two-version scenario via an injected
transport).
New: pick edition. A cue-less matched row is version_unknown by design
(never guess) — but the owner knows which printing the box is.
open_version_ballot() fetches the game's complete version list,
cue-scores it when cues exist, and marks the row version_ambiguous so
the normal Review edition pass presents it; the Titles page grows the
button (Eric's three Wiz-Wars: two cue-less copies can now each claim
their edition).
