Third pass, scoped from 7a32370. Three blind reviewers (engine, web,
server/tools) each concluded the work is coherent engineering with
seam-level tells; every finding was verified before touching a line.
Session biography left the comments: the bot brain's heuristics no
longer cite the opponent who taught them, the RNRX coma parenthetical
and the thief-chase citation are gone, the seat-wallet comments state
their invariants without the war stories, and process-named test
groups now name the behaviors they pin. The incident record lives
where history belongs — commit messages and the ledgers.
Structural dedup: one VISIONSTONE one-edge-sight loop serves both
LOS paths; one creature-arrival touch handler serves walking and
warp-stepping (error text aligned); one facingWedge helper draws both
keymap ribbons; one spriteVisibleInCol rule serves the draw pass and
the hover test (which also stops re-sorting per pointermove); and
deepestFacing joins the director, replacing four copied scans.
Test hardening exposed real rot the tells were hiding: the tight
CreatureState cast caught two literals with a bogus field masking
three missing ones; the number-hoarding rig had NEVER run (its
column didn't exist on seed 42 — it now carves its own geometry);
the bank-guard rig now drives the whole table to an arrival
assertion; the bent-trace test walls off straight sight so the bend
must answer. Silent `return`-on-rig-failure became loud throws, and
can-never-fail assertions were removed.
Sweep-up: the eyeTurn ghost comment, the stacked leave() doc
comments (leave now delegates to leaveLocal), the dead ternary in
the seat client, the kick handler's name-coercion drift, kick ledger
lines gain timestamps, archiveRoomFile reuses fileFor, the RULES_REV
alias retires in favor of the engine constant, hitTest un-exports,
the NUL-sentinel hover shape becomes an honest "none" variant, and
the steering holds get named constants. The bezel's stride cluster
also centers per the table's note.
288 tests, 24 ledgers verified, all workspaces typecheck.

Per the table's suggestion: chevrons and trays no longer overlay the
canvas — a frame holds them. The top bezel carries the ride controls,
the sharing-your-square portraits, and the hide button; tall turn
paddles flank the glass; the bottom bezel holds the strides, the
at-your-feet tray, hazard chips, the warp-step, and the key hint.
Every canvas pixel is now permanently hover-and-click target glass,
and the yield-while-targeting hack retires unneeded.

The drive chevrons are buttons over the canvas edges, and the
back-stride strip owns the bottom band — exactly where an adjacent
square's floor renders. With a card selected, hovering there showed
no target and a click would have STEPPED backward instead of casting
(the tacks report: the pane refused what the map allowed). While a
card is aimed the strips now fade and stop catching the pointer, so
every pixel of the pane hovers and clicks as a target; the arrow keys
still steer throughout.

Two blind spots close. The active body — wizard or ridden mount —
standing on a dimensional-warp token gets a "step through the warp"
button in the feet tray, dispatching warpStep for the wizard and
creatureWarpStep for the mount (the command the RNRX troll report
earned). And whatever you stand IN shows as a warning chip: tacks,
slime, dust, a pit, the ooze — the near plane's last secrets told.

A wizard or creature standing IN your square lives inside the
renderer's near plane — no sprite, nothing to click, though
same-square is exactly where punches, thieves, and a mount's claws
operate. A "sharing your square" tray now joins the cockpit above the
feet tray: co-located bodies as clickable portraits, routed through
the same target handler a sprite click uses — so a possessed skeleton
claws its square-mate and a wizard punches theirs, all from inside
the pane.

While the pane possesses a creature, the keymap's golden ribbon moves

Stepping out of a creature's skull treated the return as a fresh cut,
and fresh cuts face the deepest corridor — spinning the rider 90
degrees from where they had been looking. The saddle now remembers:
your position and facing are saved at mount and restored verbatim on
every dismount path (the button, the turn passing, the mount dying),
with no cut and no re-aim.

The pane learns the menagerie. On your turn, a "ride" button appears
for each creature you command with moves or claws unspent; mounting
seats the camera in its skull facing its longest corridor, hides its
own hide from its eyes, and hands it the helm — chevrons and arrows
stride IT, an adjacent floor click steps it, and clicking an enemy
sharing its square lands its blow. A banner shows the mount's
remaining legs; one tap (or the turn passing, or the mount dying)
returns you to your own eyes, where the director reseats you fresh.
Two cockpit-dignity fixes from live play ride along: a cutaway to
your own body now plays only for things done TO you — dropping a
dagger no longer flings your eyes out of your skull — and a standing
camera is never "rescued" off a wall you deliberately faced; the
deepest-corridor default applies only to fresh cuts.

Stepping through a rim warp spun the live camera 180: the director
aimed along the displacement vector, and a top-to-bottom wrap's
vector points exactly opposite the walk. The exit facing now comes
from the warp's own geometry — the far mouth's inward direction —
so travel carries straight through plain wraps and rotates correctly
where boards were laid rotated; a dimensional token step keeps the
facing it entered with.

Picking up an object ends the turn's actions AND movement — yet the
end-turn caution still tallied the unspendable points as regret. The
unspent-movement reason now stays quiet once actions have ended:
those points cannot be spent, only mourned.
And the raycaster has no downward pitch, so whatever lay in your own
square — a treasure, a dropped blade — was invisible from inside the
cockpit. An "at your feet" tray now rides the pane's bottom edge on
your turn: your square's floor treasures and objects as clickable
icons, each a one-tap pickup through the same commands the board's

The games-list reply pruned any wallet seat the server did not vouch
for — so one poll against a restarting (or wrong) server silently
deleted live credentials, the second seat-burning path this session's
server-squatting exposed. myGames now returns explicit verdicts:
a seat is voided only when its room EXISTS and refused that exact
token. Absent rooms earn no verdict and absent seats survive; the
wallet caps by age at fifty instead of by trust.

The client deleted its saved seat credentials on "no such room" — but
that error proves nothing about the seat: a restarting server, a
stale restore, or a wrong backend all say it, and burning the token
on a transient locked a live player out of a live game (room 22EC,
after this session's server-squatting incident). Now only "name is
taken" — this exact token tried and refused — clears the credential;
a not-found shows its error and keeps the key for the reconnect that

The keymap's facing wedge rendered BENEATH the wizard's own art, its

Hovering the pane now shows what a click would do: a wizard or
creature outlines in gold with its name at the crosshair, a wall or
door face lights across every column it owns, and a floor square
draws its perspective-true quad on the ground. Warp-bent ground still
targets truly but labels itself "through the warp" rather than
drawing a quad in the wrong geometry. And when a cell-target card is
selected, the ineligible ground dims in the 3D view itself — the same
litCells the board's shadow uses, rasterized into the floor pass.

Clicks in the first-person view now act. The renderer keeps what the
last frame knew — per-column depth, warp bends, every wall hit's edge,
every sprite's screen rect with its identity — and hitTest inverts the
projection: the nearest visible sprite answers as its wizard or
creature, a struck wall or door answers as its edge, and the ground
answers as the square under the pixel, warp-bent columns mapping their
virtual floor back to real cells through the warp's own rigid motion.
The pane hands each target to the very functions the top-down board's
clicks use, so pane and map can never disagree: click the floor ahead
and you walk there; click a door with a key selected and the lock
turns; click a wizard with an attack and the spell flies.
The keymap token now wears a golden wedge showing the camera's compass
quadrant — the cockpit and the chart always agree on which way you
face. Verified live: a floor click became a real move command in the
room ledger, edge clicks resolve and defer correctly, and the wedge
tracks quarter-turns.

A clockwork whose chosen command the engine refuses now stumbles
visibly: the refusal is logged server-side with the offending command
(the RNRX coma took three silent turns to notice), and the bot says
so in character at the table — "RECALCULATING." — instead of an
unexplained idle turn. And six event types that never spoke in the
chronicle find their lines: the wave's wash-back, thornbush entry,
dragged objects, the opening deal, stolen-card and revealed-hand
privates. Replay captions inherit them all through humanize.

Automaton II froze for three turns of game four: pathDenial proposed
HANDFUL OF TACKS on a square four steps away, the engine refused the
cast every turn ("you must be adjacent to scatter tacks"), and the
refusal-fallback loop read as a coma. The denial planner now offers
tacks only at the caster's feet — and the walker learns tacks are a
floor hazard, so a bot no longer mines its own doorstep and strolls
straight into it (also RNRX, seq 194-195). The frozen ledger moment
replays cured; a regression pins the planner's proposals to
engine-accepted commands. 288 tests; 24 ledgers verified.

Six instincts learned playing Kestrel live, taught to the automatons.
Bank guard: enemy gold banked at home is a scoreboard anyone can rob —
an empty-handed raider within two of a stocked bank pulls the walker
home (the predicate reads only enemy positions, the thief-chase
shuttle lesson), and pathDenial blockades the raider's road.
Repossession: the bot's own treasure banked by an enemy one delivery
from winning becomes a march goal, and the underfoot grab learns the
owner exception. Infrastructure: holding DIMENSIONAL WARP near home
in the early rounds, the bot anchors one mouth at its doorstep and
one beside the richest distant gold — the home-anchored superhighway
that won its teacher two games. Turn theft: a carrier one delivery
from winning eats LIGHTNING BLAST's stun over any bigger point total.
The teleport delivery: carrying with home a blink away but farther by
boot, it jumps the ambush and drops next command. Last-counter
thrift: a lone remaining counteraction at healthy life waits for
something big. A/B vs the prior brain across 100 mirrors: parity
(44-52, historical noise band) — the patterns are anti-human, and
mirrors don't play like humans. Three scenario tests pin the rungs;
287 tests; 23 ledgers verified.

Two lobby-lifecycle gaps from tonight's duels (a token lost to a
client bug left an unkickable ghost seat holding a chair in VQJW).
kickSeat: the host removes any other seat from an unstarted room —
the kick is a ledger line so restarts replay it, and a kicked live
socket is set adrift with notice. abandonRoom: the host dissolves a
lobby or a finished game; every member is notified and detached, and
the ledger is archived to rooms-abandoned/ — moved, never deleted.
The lobby shows hosts a ✕ per seat and an abandon-room control.

Two findings from duel two (room UNS6). AROUND THE CORNER's bent
sight was legal but invisible: a 1-by-6 diagonal threading six open
edge spans read as an impossible shot because the table never saw the
line. The stack now records bentCorner, and stackSightTrace finds the
middle square and returns both legs; the board draws them with a
pulsing diamond on the corner the sight bent around — the answer to
"how can he even see me?" now covers the bent case.
Floor objects (a dropped wizardblade) showed a marker but answered
only a 450ms hold; a plain click did nothing. The marker itself is
now a click target that opens the same card peek.

Two findings from the first human-vs-Claude duel (room 9UA6). A
creature standing on a DIMENSIONAL WARP token had no way through it —
warpStep obeys only wizards. The new creatureWarpStep command steps a
commanded creature through the tokens under the walker's rules: one
move spent, solid stone refuses it, FEAR holds the beast, touch
effects greet whoever shares the landing; the board taps the paired
token like a rim mouth. Replay-safe ungated — a new command widens
nothing that was recorded.
MENTAL FORCE ate its card silently when the destination lay beyond
the victim's three walked spaces — the caster spent an attack and
learned nothing (ask me how I know). Rev 5 refuses the impossible
destination up front with the card kept; when the victim slips out of
range between cast and resolution, a mentalForceFizzled event tells
the table what happened instead of nothing. All 20 production ledgers

Eric beats the clockwork four games in five; these close the holes he
walks through. The treasure race: no number card is hoarded for a war
chest when no enemy stands within six squares, and never against the
delivery that wins the game outright. The kill: bestAttack now shops
every number and the amplify separately, preferring a killing blow at
minimal spend (with three points of soak margin, or an ABSORB undoes
it) over maximum splash, banking the big numbers for the next fight.
The last stand: a blow that would be lethal escalates past every
thrift threshold — any counter that can save the clockwork is cheap
at that price, ABSORB's three soaked points included when they are
exactly the margin. The race denial: TELEPORT OPPONENT and DROP
OBJECT now fire on any carrier one delivery from winning, not just
the thief of the bot's own gold. And the MASTER KEY goes on display
the turn it is drawn, opening every workable lock on the march for
free. A/B against the prior brain across 300 mirror games: parity
(the features aim at human play patterns mirrors rarely exercise);
three scenario tests pin the new instincts. Ships ungated — brains

unpassed door keeps its opening until turn's end), and holding via a

"Display Immediately," says the card — now the key lives up to it.
Cast bare (a new Display button beside the hold-the-door checkbox),
it goes straight on display; once displayed, it turns in every lock
its bearer walks through — no more casting at each door — with the
door relocking behind them at turn's end like any picked lock, and
the doorUnlocked event still swinging the door in the reels. Cast at
an adjacent door it still works one lock like PICK LOCK, including
holding the door open for others. A JAMmed LOCK refuses it as ever,
and the adjacent peek through workable locks already rode the rev-2
sight rules. Replay-safe ungated: bare casts were never recorded

The client always offered CHAOS from the hint bar without a target,

one — cast bare, it sweeps every other living wizard into the pile,
each offered their FULL SHIELD sit-out in turn order from the caster.
No stack forms; full shields only ever excluded a player from the
storm, so the queue is the whole defense. The older player-targeted

An automaton beside the wizard carrying its gold shuttled on and off
their square until every move was spent — the chase goal flipped
between "the thief's cell" and "the gold" with each step, because it
keyed on whether the thief stood underfoot. The chase now claims the
march only while the blow it exists to deliver is still live (an
attack in hand, the turn's attack unspent, casting open): those gates
hold still as the clockwork walks, so the goal cannot flip mid-march.
Caught with the strike live, it stands its ground; otherwise the gold
has its legs for the turn. A regression walks the exact scene and

the viewer bears it, at every revision: widening what a cast may
target never changes how a recorded command replays, so games already

Teleport wraps the maze's rim: its four counted squares now step

side of the board and onto the other.
A wizard at a door's threshold may pull it open and peek — lock

without stepping through. The door still hangs shut to everyone down
the hallway; only a HELD door is propped open for every eye. Gated
behind rules rev 2 (now sourced from the engine's CURRENT_RULES_REV)

FPV play begins. On your turn the pane takes the helm: arrows or WASD

through the same cautions and refusals as a board click, and a wall
bounces you with the table's own toast. While the player steers, the
director keeps its hands off the idle facings; your own magic still
turns your head, and cutaways still fire. The layout inverts to match
the mode: the 3D view is the primary window into the game, the
top-down board reduced to a keymap beneath it, with the control hint

Eric's layout call: the first-person pane wears exactly the board's
width, directly above it. A shrink-wrapped column stacks the two, with
the pane held out of the intrinsic sizing (width:0, min-width:100%) so
the BOARD alone decides how wide the column is; the canvas keeps its
aspect as it scales.
