Rules rev 23 — IDIOT, per the card and FAQ:
- No handling items: pick up / drop of treasures and objects refused
(dropping was the exploit: capturing a stolen treasure on your own home,
or dropping your own treasure underfoot for an instant cure)
- No punching, no thrown dagger / large rock (attacks on players)
- No effect on a victim already carrying one of their own treasures
Ungated (permissive): counteractions are now castable while idiotized (the
one thing the card expressly allows — the gate wrongly blocked them), and
goal-aiding spells (IDIOT_AIDS: destroy-wall, teleport, mad-dash, ...) per
the FAQ's 'you could, however, destroy a wall'.
Sight tracing: while an LOS attack sits on the stack, the board draws the
line it traveled — straight when direct, leg by leg through both warp
mouths (with pulsing rings) when the maze's wraparound carried it. Engine
traceSight/traceSightFor/stackSightTrace; overlay in Board.svelte; shown
live and in replays. Verified against H3PC's cross-board Idiot cast.

The rulebook (Cards And Actions That Change The Map): a CREATE WALL
or DESTROY WALL alteration on a junction between sectors rolls a
50-50 when "some other moron" rotates one of them — 1-2 stays with
the standing sector, 3-4 travels with the moving one, per the book's
own low/high convention. Both rotation and relocation roll (the same
seam tears either way), demolished holes roll alongside conjured
walls, the pips land loud in the chronicle, and a traveling edge
rides anchored to its in-sector cell. Rev-gated: the roll consumes
dice that stored games never spent.

Scoped to everything since the last pass (695307d). The residue of
fast iteration, removed: a reduced-motion media query that had
swallowed a full copy of the .faq-seal rules; doc comments orphaned
from their functions by inserted methods; the FAQ scrape's seams
(section headings run into ruling bodies under the wrong topics, a
next-page heading shipped as a ruling, an amputated "h", and rulings
filed under alphabetically-nearest strangers — Large Rock/Dagger now
lives on those cards; Book of Spells and Torquemada describe no card
in this set and are gone); the write-only aisle flag left behind by
the reverted rev 7; a linter-silenced dead destructure; a duplicated
median lookup; dead casts; and the fallback path that ignored the
apprentice's one-card draw.
Tests now typecheck (tsconfig includes test/), which surfaced the
missing type imports and a drifted creature literal hiding under an
as-cast. Also: a no-op self-assignment, mid-file imports hoisted, a
dynamic-import habit made static, a hedge comment replaced with a
loud setup failure, the fallback-retries-itself dead rung removed
from both bot drivers, and the twin peek scrims merged.
Deliberately kept: the TIERS lookup guard (ledger JSON is untrusted),
the wand-cost stanzas (they differ on the power-attack trade — a
rules question, not a dedup), and rollDie's coexistence with rollD4
(migrating changes visible logs; future work).

Relocate Sector could never land a sector west or north of the origin
— placements the physical game allows by simply sliding the whole map
across the table. The coordinate grid still cannot go negative, but
now it does not need to: a sector may land at negative coordinates
and the whole maze renormalizes, zero-anchoring on both axes (which
also pulls the maze snug when the origin corner is vacated, instead
of leaving a blank band). The client offers the new landings as ghost
slots on every side, verified slot-for-slot against engine truth.
The move also closes a real gap: remapState never carried creatures,
boobytrap tokens, glue, open safes, or dimensional warp tokens when a
sector relocated or rotated — they were left hovering at their old
coordinates. Sectors now carry everything standing on them. Both
changes ride rules rev 11; older ledgers replay their flaws intact,
as replay determinism demands.

A three-reviewer sweep for tells of piecemeal machine generation,
every finding verified against the code before touching it. No
behavior changes; the full suite passes unchanged (plus two
strengthened pins).
Engine: removed four void-silenced fossils (a parseEdgeKey call
voided where it stood, stoneEffect's ignored cardId parameter, the
actualTarget remnant in doCast, a voided loop variable in shadow
upkeep); fixed the initialize-then-overwrite narration in
spawnCreature; replaced a filter(() => false) no-op; waterwall now
rides waveFromEdge instead of carrying its own verbatim copy (and the
single-caller washBack wrapper went with it); blind wall-bumps and
LOS blockers each collapsed to one implementation; the wand-id list
and the "permanent" duration sentinel became named constants; the
ambush number local no longer shadows the imported numberValue
function; assorted reviewer-aimed phrasings rewritten as the
constraints they guard.
Server/deploy: the protocol header now documents all eleven message
types; dropped an eslint pragma with no eslint, a test script with no
tests, and an rsync exclude anchored at a path that never existed
(the real data/ dir now excluded); the Caddy vhost has one source of
truth; stale "pending DNS" note removed — the record resolves.
Web: ~90 lines of CSS swallowed verbatim into a mobile media query
deduplicated; the reduced-motion guard on the board now actually
stops the marked-cell pulse; one shared color module replaces two
drifted palettes; an orphaned doc comment rejoined its function.
Tests: the ten-times-pasted helper block became test/helpers.ts;
wave-numbered files renamed for the behaviors they pin; deliberation
comments and void-ed corpses of unwritten assertions deleted; silent
seed-dependent early-returns now fail loudly; one assertion that
compared a value to itself now pins the home-translation it meant to;
the stored-log single-number command form gained the explicit
compatibility test it deserved.
