-
-A one-line-per-export index of `@datamoc/mw_games`'s public API - what exists and where,
-not how to use it. The published Documentation page is this file rendered as HTML; the
-full generated API (every parameter, every doc comment) lives beside it at
-`webpage/documentation/api/`, with an examples index beside it at
-`webpage/documentation/examples.html` listing every `@example` per module (all from
-`npm run webpage:docs`). For *why* the framework
-is shaped this way and what it's for, see `README.md`'s capability spec. For architecture
-and build commands, see `DEVELOPMENT.md`. For the order things shipped in and the reasoning
-behind it, see `CLOSED.md`; for what's still open, see `ROADMAP.md`.
-
-Every module is its own barrel: `import { X } from '@datamoc/mw_games/core'` (or the
-matching subpath for any module below), or `import { X } from '@datamoc/mw_games'` for the
-root re-export.
-
-**Two rendering worlds, and a core that belongs to neither.** `mwg/two-d` is everything drawn
-through PixiJS (`Game`, `Scene2D`, and the `render`, `ui` and `stage` modules beneath it);
-`mwg/3d` is everything drawn through Babylon. `mwg/core` holds what both need and neither
-renders: the scene lifecycle, `SceneStack`, input, saves, RNG, signals, achievements.
-
-**Which entry points reach a renderer**, checked by a test that walks the real import graph
-(`tests/renderer-isolation.test.ts`) rather than by good intentions:
-
-| renderer-free | Pixi | Babylon |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| `core`, `i18n`, `actors`, `world`, `battle`, `simulation`, `roguelike`, `board`, `audio`, `rpg`, `ai`, `mwl`, `assets/paths` | `two-d` (and `two-d/render`, `two-d/ui`, `two-d/stage`), `assets` | `three-d` (the `3d` subpath) |
-
-`roguelike` adds only `rot-js`, and `pixi.js`, `@babylonjs/core`/`@babylonjs/loaders` and
-`@capacitor/core` are optional peer dependencies rather than installed ones, so a project names
-only the renderer it actually draws with. A Babylon game importing `core` + `3d` pulls in no Pixi
-at all, and a 2D game importing `core` + `two-d` pulls in no Babylon. `rpg` is renderer-free too:
-its event interpreter takes an injected `DialoguePresenter` rather than building a widget, so
-a 3D game can run map events, dialogue and quests without a 2D renderer anywhere in reach.
-
-## MWL presentation
-
-The optional compiler at `@datamoc/mw_games/mwl/presentation` is renderer-free. The
-runtime at `@datamoc/mw_games/two-d/presentation` imports Pixi and is kept off the root
-barrel. The browser consumes compiled data, with no MWL parser or network requests.
-
-- `compilePresentation(files, manifest)` validates and compiles top-level
-  `theme_definition`, `presentation_context`, `component_variant`, `ui_component` and
-  `scene_definition` nodes. It checks named actions/adapters, binding types, assets,
-  reusable-component cycles, duplicate IDs, overrides and token references at build time,
-  with source-file/line diagnostics. The manifest's asset names must be generated files
-  that the game's asset build actually includes.
-- `emitPresentationModule(data)` emits deterministic TypeScript data, `PresentationId`
-  (including keyed instance paths) and `PresentationSceneId` literal types. A game's build
-  script writes this module plus `data.messages` and `data.assets` into its existing MWL
-  artifact pipeline. See `examples/mwl-presentation/generate.mjs`.
-- `MwlPresentation(data, sceneId, options)` mounts existing `Button`, `Label`, `Bar`,
-  `Window`, `WindowStack` and `Camera` components. `get(id)`, `focusId`, `palette` and
-  `activeContext` expose instances and presentation state. `update(dt)`, `resize(width,
-  height)`, `setContext(id)` and `destroy()` drive its lifecycle; `handleAction(action)`
-  offers modal windows input first. Register destruction with the owning scene's
-  `onDestroy`; it detaches input, theme, controller and adapter subscriptions.
-
-Declare the TypeScript manifest with `values: { name: 'string' | 'number' | 'boolean' }`,
-or `{ type: 'items', fields: { id: 'string', text: 'string', selected: 'boolean' } }` for
-collections, plus `actions`, optional `adapters` and `assets` name lists. The runtime's
-`options.state()` supplies those values; `options.actions` implements the named callbacks.
-Repeated-item actions receive the current item, even after reorder. Optional `subscribe`
-returns a disposer, and `translate` resolves authored/gettext text. Asset textures must
-be loaded before mounting. `PresentationAdapter` exposes a view plus optional `update`,
-`resize`, `restyle` and `destroy`: the runtime destroys the view, while the adapter
-detaches its own subscriptions. Cleanup continues even if an adapter throws.
-
-Scenes contain `scene_camera` (zoom, position or fit dimensions), `scene_layer` (world or
-screen space, optional generated image or named procedural adapter) and UI trees.
-`ui_mount` expands a reusable component at build time. UI trees use `ui_container`,
-`ui_row` (wrapping by default), `ui_column`, `ui_grid` (equal grow columns), `ui_label`,
-`ui_button`, `ui_bar`, `ui_window`, `ui_repeat` and `ui_adapter`. Every node has an `id`;
-runtime paths start with the scene ID and join descendant IDs with `/`. Repeats insert
-the URI-encoded stable key before their single template child's ID, preserving instances
-and focus on updates. A reusable component using item fields may declare `items_binding`
-so even an unused template can be validated against its collection.
-
-Properties include pixel dimensions, anchors, offsets (`x`, `y`), spacing, alpha and
-semantic color tokens. Bindings use `text_binding`, `title_binding`, `value_binding`,
-`max_binding`, `color_binding`, `visible_binding`, `selected_binding` and
-`disabled_binding`; item fields use `item.field`. Buttons name an `action`, windows may
-name a `close_action`, and repeats declare `items_binding` plus a string/number `key`.
-Window close actions should update the controller's visibility binding. Closed windows
-stay closed until their visibility transitions false then true; reopening creates a
-fresh window, because existing `Window.close()` destroys its contents.
-
-Themes require `panel`, `text`, `accent`, `success`, `warning`, `danger` and `selection`
-24-bit color tokens; games may add scenery tokens and choose font/padding metrics.
-Text/panel contrast must reach 4.5, and danger/selection against panel must reach 3.
-Contexts choose a theme and may override tokens or authored-node properties using
-`ui_override.target`, such as `component:controls/toolbar` or `scene:bridge/decor`.
-Image overrides on scene layers select generated scenery. Precedence is base properties,
-context overrides, component variant, then `ui_state` (`idle`, `hover`, `pressed`,
-`disabled`, `selected`, `focused`). A game's biome schema selects a context; MWG defines
-no biome rules. Context switches preserve mounted adapters and controller state.
-
-One active presentation owns the existing global UI theme. Destruction restores its prior
-theme if nobody replaced it meanwhile. Existing widgets also expose local palette updates:
-`Button.setColors` (`ButtonColors`), `Window.setColors` (`WindowColors`) and
-`Bar.setBackground`, for variants that must follow token changes without remounting.
-
-## Conventions
-
-Three rules the whole API follows, so a name means one thing everywhere:
-
-- **`advance(turns)` moves a clock forward in whole turns or rounds; `update(dt)` moves one
-  forward in real seconds.** `TurnClock`, `Charges`, `Field`, `Barrier` and `AbilityCycle`
-  take turns; everything in `render`, `ui`, `audio` and `world.EnvironmentClock` takes `dt`.
-  Anything that is not time passing gets its own verb rather than borrowing one of these
-  (`QuestLog.advanceStage`, `BossPhases.check`).
-- **`toJSON()` / `static fromJSON(defs, data)` is how a class saves and reloads.** Definitions
-  a game owns (item tables, quest definitions, growth curves, terrain kinds) are supplied
-  fresh as `defs` rather than written into the save, so rebalancing reaches old saves.
-  Namespace-level state uses `exportX`/`importX` free functions instead (`Input` bindings);
-  `Random.Generator` keeps `getState`/`setState`, which resumes a live stream in place rather
-  than producing a payload.
-- **"Nothing to pick" is always `null`**, never `-1` or `undefined`: `Random.weighted`,
-  `Random.element`, `Random.weightedKey`, `rollEncounter`, `rollLoot`, `rollAffix`,
-  `pickBuilder`.

-## `core`
-
-The scene lifecycle, signals, RNG, input, and every save/telemetry/replay primitive - the one
-module every game imports, whichever renderer it uses, and the only one that depends on no
-other `mwg` module and no renderer at all.
-
-- `Scene` - one screen of the game, as lifecycle only: `create`, `update(dt)`, `resize`, the
-  `onSuspend`/`onResume` pair a pushed scene needs, and a `destroy` that fires once. It owns
-  no display node; `two-d.Scene2D` adds the Pixi container, and a Babylon game supplies its own.
-- `SceneStack` - `push`/`pop`/`replace`: suspends the current scene, layers another over or
-  instead of it, and resumes with a result once it pops (minigames, pause menus). Generic over
-  the scene type and typed against the lifecycle above, so it drives a 3D game just as well.
-- `SceneComponentHost`/`SceneComponent` - composes a scene out of named sections (map logic,
-  encounter logic, UI wiring), each its own module implementing whichever `Scene` lifecycle
-  hooks it needs, instead of one scene class accreting every responsibility. A scene owns one
-  host and forwards `update`/`resize`/`onSuspend`/`onResume`/`destroy` to it - composition, not
-  a base class, so it works the same whether the scene extends `Scene` or `two-d.Scene2D`.
-- `Registry` - a named lookup registered once and read back by name: `register`/`get`/`has`/
-  `list`, throwing on a duplicate or missing name by that name. The dispatch primitive
-  underneath a catalog of factories or handlers (`SceneComponentHost` uses one internally) -
-  a game still imports and registers each entry itself, no auto-discovery.
-- `createHandles`/`Handles` - numeric leases for values a plain-data command cannot carry
-  (callbacks, RNG streams, query closures): `put` stores a value and returns its id, `get`
-  resolves it, `drop`/`clear` end leases, and `with` scopes a lease so the drop runs even
-  when the body throws. Ids start at 1 and are never reused.
-- `Logger` - categories, four severity levels, a filter, and a sink tests can capture,
-  instead of bare `console.log`/`console.error`.
-Three shapes cover what "an event" means here, kept deliberately distinct rather than folded
-into one bus: a **GameEvent** is a rule's ordered *output* - what happened, described after the
-fact - realised as the generic `Event` type parameter `simulation`'s `SimulationRule`/
-`SimulationRuntimeRule` already return, never something a handler reacts to mid-calculation. A
-**Hook** (`HookRegistry`, below) is a point of *modification* a rule consults while it runs -
-`modifyDamage`, "can this creature act this turn" - synchronous, and read back by the same rule
-that asked. A **Signal** is a plain *notification* with no bearing on any rule - `sceneChanged`,
-`saveCompleted`. Reaching for a global bus that several `AttackRequested`/`DamageCalculated`/
-`HpChanged`-style events all dispatch onto, each triggering the next, is the shape to avoid: it
-turns a rule's synchronous, readable logic into a chain no single function owns.
-
-- `Signal` - a typed event emitter: one event, one payload, LIFO listeners, and a listener
-  can consume it.
-- `HookRegistry`/`Hook` - many events keyed by name, dispatched in registration order, with a
-  `source` tag so everything one ability or worn item registered comes off in a single
-  `offSource` call. `battle.BattleHooks` and `roguelike.CombatHooks` are both this with their
-  argument types fixed; they were two copies of one class until they were merged.
-- `PresentationQueue` - plays a batch of simulation events one at a time, at whatever pace
-  `play(event)` (a tween, a sound, a floating number) says to wait before the next - the
-  presentation-side counterpart to a `SimulationRuntime.dispatch()`/`runScenario()` result, kept
-  out of the logical commit that already happened. The same queued/timed shape as `two-d.ui.
-  Toast`, generalised to any event type and needing no renderer.
-- `parseCSV`/`CsvOptions`/`CsvColumnType` - a header-row CSV into an array of typed row
-  objects, so a content designer edits a spreadsheet instead of a `.ts` object literal for a
-  table shaped like `actors.AffixTable`. `columns` names which fields coerce to
-  `'number'`/`'boolean'`/`'list'` (semicolon-separated)/`'map'` (semicolon-separated
-  `key=value` pairs); an empty cell omits that field entirely, the same as an optional
-  property never set. Takes a raw string with no opinion on how it was loaded, the same
-  boundary `i18n.parseFTL` already draws.
-- `clamp` - `value` restricted to `[min, max]`. Shared so `two-d.render.Camera`'s bounds
-  clamp and `rpg.Collision`'s tile-edge resolver stop being the same three-line function
-  written twice.
-- `parseDialogueLines`/`DialogueLine` - the terse `@id text`/`-`-alternation dialogue-text
-  parsing engine behind both `two-d/stage.parseDialogueText` and `rpg.parseDialogueText`, so
-  the two-speaker state machine lives once instead of twice: each module's own wrapper only
-  renames `DialogueLine.speaker` onto its own command shape (`StageCommand.as` versus
-  `EventCommand.speaker`).
-- `parseTwee`/`TweeCommand`/`TweeChoice`/`TweeStory` - the Twee-notation parsing engine
-  behind both `two-d/stage.importTwee` and `rpg.importTwee`, for the same reason: passages,
-  `[[links]]` and `StoryData`/`StoryTitle` parse once here, and `TweeCommand`/`TweeChoice`
-  are structurally compatible with both `StoryScript`/`StageChoice` and
-  `EventStoryScript`/`EventChoice`, so each module's wrapper needs no per-field conversion.
-- `Random` (namespace) - seeded RNG: `int`, `float`, `weighted`, `element`, `shuffle` and the
-  rest; every "pick one" returns `null` when there is nothing to pick.
-- `Generator` - the seeded RNG class `Random` wraps directly, for a game that wants its own instance.
-- `JavaRandom`/`JavaRandomDraw`/`JavaRandomOptions` - `java.util.Random`'s 48-bit generator bit for bit
-  (`nextInt`, `nextInt(bound)`, `nextLong`, `nextDouble`, `nextFloat`, `nextBoolean`), so a
-  game ported from the JVM replays the same seed; `onDraw` logs every underlying draw for a
-  parity diff against a JVM run. Not for general use, that is `Generator`.
-- `MersenneTwister`/`MersenneTwisterState` - MT19937 with `mt_rng`'s `seed`/`discard`/
-  `discardCount` bookkeeping, for a port that consumes the reference's raw 32-bit stream; the
-  engine matches the standard test vector, while the int mapping is MWG's own unbiased
-  reduction (C++'s `uniform_int_distribution` is implementation-defined).
-- `RandomStreams` - named, independent MT19937 streams over one base seed, so a loot draw and
-  an AI draw never shift each other, with `getState`/`setState` for a save and `reseed`.
-- `Input` (namespace, so `Input.onAction`, not a bare `onAction` import) - named-action input: `bind`/`isDown`/`justPressed`/`justReleased`
-  over keyboard, `bindButton`/`bindAxis`/`pollGamepads` over a gamepad,
-  `bindTouch`/`pressTouch`/`releaseTouch`/`attachSwipe` over touch, `attachPointer` for
-  down/move/drag/up signals with target-relative and (through `toWorld`) world positions, `actionsForKey` for
-  rebind-conflict detection, `rumble` for gamepad haptics. `onText` carries the character a
-  key press produces (via `textFromKey`/`dispatchText`) and `onAction` the named action a
-  key fires, each with its own programmatic counterpart (`dispatchText`,
-  `dispatchAction`) so an on-screen keyboard feeds the same signals a physical key
-  travels; `onComposition` follows an IME through `start`/`update`/`end`, so a free text
-  field can be built on top.
-- `PlayerInput` - a per-player scoped `Input`, for local multiplayer/split-screen.
-- `StoredValue`/`defaultStorage` - one JSON value under one storage key (`read(fallback)`/
-  `write`/`remove`) over the same storage `SaveSystem` uses: a game's structured progress or
-  best scores without a save slot.
-- `FixedStepper` - turns the variable `Scene.update(dt)` into fixed simulation steps
-  (`advance(dt, tick)`, a `maxSubsteps` cap, `alpha` for interpolated drawing): the deterministic,
-  refresh-rate-independent loop a physics solver or lockstep game needs.
-- `SaveSystem` - named, versioned save slots over `localStorage` (in-memory fallback under
-  `file://`); a `migrations` chain, and `importExternal` as a plug-in point for a foreign
-  save format's own `normalize` function. `load`, `list` and `importSlot` read every slot
-  through `parseInbound` plus a `{ meta: { version, savedAt }, state }` shape check: a
-  corrupt or tampered slot loads as `null` and is left out of `list`.
-- `StateRegistry`/`StateExtension`/`StateRestoreDiagnostic` - named game-owned state extensions with deep-cloned
-  snapshots and transaction rollback, with independent versions, ordered migrations and
-  explicit handling of extensions absent from a restored save, so custom save data has one
-  atomic boundary.
-- `ActionJournal` - serializable ordered action and outcome batches with checkpoints,
-  incremental reads, truncation and validated restore for replay, undo and synchronization.
-  Actions and events are copied on `append`, so both must be plain data.
-- `cloneData`/`uncloneablePath` - `structuredClone` with an error naming the first value that
-  cannot be copied (`action.target.reactions.rules[0].when`), and that path on its own. The
-  journal and `simulation.SimulationRuntime` use it, so a command carrying a live actor fails
-  with where and why instead of a bare `DataCloneError`.
-- `scramble`/`unscramble` - light save-data obfuscation, not encryption.
-- `SaveSyncClient` - pushes/pulls save data to a server the game supplies.
-- `LockstepClient` - deterministic multiplayer over an injectable WebSocket, tick-driven.
-  Server messages are size-capped (`maxMessageBytes`, 1 MB) and type-checked; a malformed one
-  is dropped and reported on `onProtocolError` instead of throwing out of `onmessage`.
-- `stateChecksum`/`SyncGuard` - out-of-sync detection for lockstep: a key-order-stable 32-bit
-  checksum of JSON state, and a guard comparing the checksums two peers compute for each tick,
-  recording the first tick they disagree on.
-- `RunHistory` - a local record of completed runs (score, cause of death, whatever a game's
-  own `summary` holds), distinct from `SaveSystem`'s continuable slots.
-- `PlayerStats` - a lifetime running total folded in one run's summary at a time, distinct
-  from `RunHistory`'s per-run records.
-- `TelemetryClient` - sends usage/error events to a server the game supplies.
-- `NewsClient`/`NewsSeenTracker` - a game's own patch-notes/announcement feed, with a
-  seen-tracker so a player is only notified of what's actually new.
-- `checkSize`/`checkNoControlCharacters`/`sanitizeInboundText`/`validateSchema`/`parseInbound` -
-  security sanitization of inbound data: an imported save, a network payload, player-typed
-  text. `parseInbound` is the whole pass in one call (size, control characters, `JSON.parse`
-  refusing `__proto__`/`constructor`/`prototype` at any depth), and every `core` reader of
-  JSON it did not just produce uses it: save slots, `Collection`, stored values, settings,
-  `NewsClient` and `LockstepClient`. Under `file://` Chromium shares one `localStorage`
-  between every local page, so a game's own storage is inbound data too.
-- `Collection` - named, queryable record collections over `localStorage`
-  (`all`/`get`/`put`/`remove`/`where`/`clear`) - a quest log or bestiary, not a save blob.
-- `Recorder`/`Player`/`serializeReplay`/`deserializeReplay` - records `Input.onAction`
-  against `Game`'s own frame counter and replays it deterministically, for testing.
-  Both resume mid-run: `Recorder` takes `fromFrame` so a restored run continues its
-  recording where the checkpoint left it, and `Player` takes `fromFrame` so playback
-  skips what the restored state already contains. `parseReplayEvents` validates an
-  already-parsed event array, the half of the check `deserializeReplay` applies after
-  its own `JSON.parse`.
-- `exportReplayFile`/`importReplayFile`/`LastRun`/`runCheckpoint`/`resumeRunPlayer` -
-  a run made durable (roadmap 396). The file is a versioned, self-describing envelope
-  (`format: 'mwg-replay'`, `version`, `framework`, `game`, optional `seed` and
-  `recordedAt`, `events`), and import refuses another game or another framework build
-  by name, treating the file as inbound data the way a save slot is treated.
-  `LastRun` keeps the newest recording, one deep and bounded, through the same storage
-  a save slot uses; `runCheckpoint(recorder, state)` pairs the partial recording with
-  the game state a save already captured, and `resumeRunPlayer` turns the restored
-  checkpoint back into a mid-run `Player`. The `file://` plumbing rides along:
-  `downloadReplayFile` is a Blob download (no `fetch()`), `pickReplayFile` is the file
-  picker resolving null on cancel, and `readReplayFile` reads any `Blob`, headless
-  Node included.
-- `Achievements` - counters crossing a target unlock a named milestone; `drainNew()`
-  queues unlocks for a UI to announce. An achievement can name several `criteria`
-  instead of one `counter`/`target` (item 273's sub-achievements, "recruit every unit
-  type"), unlocking only once every criterion is met; `subProgress` reads them individually.
-- `Settings`/`GameSettings`/`SettingsOptions`/`CustomSettingValue` - persisted player
-  settings over the same storage `SaveSystem` uses (in-memory fallback under `file://`):
-  music and sound-effect levels, master mute, zoom preference, key bindings (applied to
-  `Input` on load), and a game-defined `custom` bag for the rest (`hints`, `violence`,
-  ...). `defaultSettings` names the fresh-game values, `effectiveMusicVolume`/
-  `effectiveSfxVolume` read 0 while muted, corrupt storage reads as defaults.
-- `Session` - counts launches over the same storage `SaveSystem` uses, for a native
-  wrapper's own rating-prompt timing; never prompts itself.
-- `FeedbackClient`/`HttpTransport`/`HttpTransportOptions` - an injectable HTTPS JSON transport for
-  player-submitted feedback; the game owns the endpoint, consent flow, and server-side storage.
-  Every `HttpTransportOptions` client (`FeedbackClient`, `NewsClient`, `SaveSyncClient`,
-  `TelemetryClient`) and `LockstepClient` refuses an `http:`/`ws:` url to anything but
-  `localhost`/`127.0.0.1`/`[::1]` unless `allowInsecure: true`, and a response body is read up
-  to `maxResponseBytes` (10 MB), refused as soon as it passes the limit.
-- `Spawner` - a `dt`-driven, timed, escalating wave spawner (a horde mode, a survival
-  minigame), distinct from `roguelike.Scheduler`'s turn-order primitive.
-- `hexNeighbors`/`hexDistance`/`hexLine`/`hexRange`/`hexToPixel`/`pixelToHex` with
-  `HexShape`/`HexOrientation`/`HexOffset` - hex grid geometry: cube-based neighbours, lines and
-  ranges, and the pixel projection in both orientations and both offset parities, defaulting to the
-  flat-top odd-q layout this module always had. `pixelToHex` answers with the nearest cell centre
-  rather than a closed-form inverse per combination, so it cannot disagree with `hexToPixel` at a
-  hex's edge.
-- `weightedFlood`/`WeightedCell`/`WeightedFloodOptions` - renderer- and rules-neutral Dijkstra
-  flood over any cell topology, with injected costs, blockers, budget and stopping rules.
-- `cellInside`/`cellIndex`/`cellX`/`cellY`/`cellKey`/`cellFromKey` - bounded-grid indexing:
-  the row-major arithmetic and bounds check that `roguelike.Level` and the `board` modules used
-  to spell out for themselves, now stated once (the Wesnoth port asked for exactly this, to stop
-  duplicating it in its own systems). `cellInside` is the shared bounds check and `cellIndex` is
-  deliberately *unchecked* arithmetic, so a loop that has already proved its coordinates pays
-  nothing while a module that wants a throw or a `-1` keeps that policy in its own method;
-  `cellKey`/`cellFromKey` are the `'x,y'` spelling for `Map`/`Set` membership.
-- `NEIGHBOURS4`/`NEIGHBOURS8`/`CIRCLE8`/`euclidean`/`chebyshev` - one frozen offset table per square
-  neighbourhood, shared instead of copied: axial north/east/south/west, the eight
-  surrounding cells in row-major order, and the same ring clockwise from north (the
-  sequence `roguelike`'s `neighbourOffsets(8)` always returned, now returned as-is from
-  here). `euclidean` is the straight-line ruler, `chebyshev` the king-move one (a
-  diagonal costs one step), and `manhattan` the orthogonal-step count; `distance` measures
-  with the ruler a `DistanceMetric` names, so a data-authored rule picks its geometry by
-  name. `roguelike`'s `chebyshevDistance` delegates to `chebyshev`.
-- `Blob` - a spreading volume field over a grid: a per-cell number that `spread` diffuses a
-  share of into its open 4-neighbours and decays the rest (`decay: 1` conserves and only
-  moves volume around). `seed` adds to a cell, `clear` zeroes one cell and leaves its
-  neighbours alone, and `cellsAbove` lists what a game applies its effect on; what a volume
-  means (fire, gas, ooze, water) stays the game's own reading.
-- `reducedMotion`/`setReducedMotion`/`prefersReducedMotion`/`watchReducedMotion` - the one
-  answer to "should this animate": the OS `prefers-reduced-motion` preference, overridable per
-  game, with a change subscription for something long-lived that has to stop mid-flight.
-  `motionDuration(duration, intent)` is the policy built on it, and `MotionIntent` is the
-  caller's declaration: a `decorative` motion (the default) collapses, a `meaningful` one is
-  shortened rather than deleted, because a change that motion conveys stays readable. `Tweener`,
-  `Camera` (shake and follow), `ScreenEffects`, `ParticleEmitter` and `FloatingText` consult it.
-  `AnimatedSprite` deliberately does not: a frame cycle is usually game state.
-- `Tweener`/`Easing`/`TweenOptions` - a generic `tween(duration, apply, ease?)` plus a small
-  linear/quad/cubic easing-curve set. The third argument also takes `{ ease, intent, alternate }`:
-  `alternate` is the non-vestibular variant to run instead under reduced motion (a fade where a
-  slide was), and it is ignored while the preference is off.
-- `UndoHistory` - gameplay-level undo/redo over pushed, reference-held states.
-- `LoadQueue` - a reusable loading-screen lifecycle: named tasks, aggregate progress,
-  cancellation.
-- `EntityRegistry`/`EntityId` - assigns and looks up stable string ids for live objects, so
-  events, saves, AI targets and buffs can name a creature or item without holding it; not an
-  ECS, and distinct from `Collection`'s persisted, queryable records. `idOf` is what a game
-  passes as `roguelike.Scheduler.toJSON`'s or `simulation.SimulationRuntime`'s `actorId`.
-- `ReactionTable`/`ReactionRule` - declarative `when`/`action` rules checked against any
-  state shape (a `StatBlock`'s values, a plain object's own fields), firing edge-triggered
-  so a still-true condition never re-fires; `once` retires a rule after its first firing. The
-  generic alternative to a branch cascade of `if HP < n` checks in game code, and works the
-  same for a character or an inanimate object such as an item's durability.
-
-## `two-d`
-
-Everything drawn through PixiJS, and the counterpart to `three-d`. The barrel re-exports
-`render`, `ui` and `stage` below, so `mwg/two-d` is a one-stop 2D import; the granular
-subpaths (`mwg/two-d/render`, `mwg/two-d/ui`, `mwg/two-d/stage`) are what a game watching its
-bundle should reach for.
-
-- `Game` - owns the Pixi `Application`, the frame loop, and the current scene; reachable as
-  the singleton `Game.current`. `step(dt)` drives one frame by hand, which defeats Chrome's
-  background-tab throttling of `requestAnimationFrame`. With `autoPause` (the default) it
-  suspends the loop and silences its `audio` rig (`AudioSuspendRig`, an `Orchestrator`
-  fits) on page hide and resumes both on show, via `suspend`/`resume`: the clock parks at
-  0, the top scene hears `onSuspend`/`onResume`, and the player's mute setting is never
-  touched. `qualityScaling` steps the backing-store ratio down after sustained
-  over-budget frames (and back up only after a much longer streak inside budget) via a
-  `QualityScaler` over the static fit, off unless given. It draws at the display's
-  `devicePixelRatio`, reduced to the largest whole number whose backing store fits the device's
-  `MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE`, with a warning naming the limit when that happens: WebGL clamps a larger
-  request silently, so a device with a small limit renders softer rather than not at all.
-- `Scene2D` - `core.Scene`'s lifecycle plus the `stage` container everything this screen draws
-  hangs off, destroyed with the scene. This is what a 2D game extends.
-
-### `two-d/render`
-
-Pixi-backed 2D rendering: sprites, tile maps, camera, animation. All Pixi
-batcher/high-shader internals are confined to `ColorTransformBatcher.ts`.
-
-- `ColorTransformBatcher`/`packColorAdd`/`packTintAdd`/`NO_COLOR_ADD` - a per-sprite
-  `texel × M + A` colour transform (multiply *and* add) in the batch shader.
-- `TintedSprite`/`registerColorTransform` - a sprite drawn through the colour-transform
-  batcher; register the extension once via `GameOptions.extensions`.
-- `parseImagePath`/`imageModifier`/`colorShiftMatrix`/`applyImageModifiers`/`croppedTexture` - parses common
-  image suffix modifiers such as `~FL`, `~GS`, `~SCALE` and `~CROP`, then applies the supported
-  Pixi presentation changes without mutating shared source textures. `channelScaleMatrix`
-  (`~R`/`~G`/`~B`) builds the `ColorMatrixFilter` matrix `applyImageModifiers` also applies for
-  `~O` (opacity) and `~CHAN` (`channelSwapMatrix` - a channel-source swap/constant, not
-  Wesnoth's own per-channel formula language). `applyTextureModifiers`/`ImageTextureProbe`
-  cover the modifiers that need real pixel access, a sibling texture, or have to rotate the
-  actual art rather than a sprite transform: `~RC`/`~PAL` (exact palette swap - see
-  `recolorTexture` below - accepting hex or, via `probe.resolveColor`, a named colour;
-  `parseColorPairs`/`parsePaletteLists` are the argument parsers, the latter reconstructing
-  `~PAL`'s two comma-separated colour lists since `parseImagePath`'s own comma split does not
-  respect that list boundary), `~BLIT`/`~MASK` (composite/mask against a `probe.resolveTexture`-
-  resolved sibling texture at an offset - it receives the argument exactly as written, nested
-  modifiers included, not a bare path; `maskPixels` is `~MASK`'s renderer-free alpha-multiply
-  core), `~BLEND` (`blendPixels`, an exact per-pixel lerp towards a colour, baked once - not the
-  runtime `ColorMatrixFilter` approximation `blendMatrix` still offers on its own) and `~ROTATE`
-  (`rotatePixels`, which rotates the source pixels and expands the surface, unlike a sprite's own
-  `rotation`; `~ROTATE(degrees)` samples nearest-neighbour, exact at quarter turns, and
-  `~ROTATE(degrees,linear)` blends the four pixels around each sample point instead - what a
-  non-square angle onto a hex grid needs. `parseRotateMode` is the second argument's parser, and
-  both modes sample premultiplied so a transparent neighbour contributes coverage and never
-  colour. It is bake-time work: measured, `linear` costs 2.4 to 4.2 times `nearest` per image -
-  0.45 ms against 0.12 ms for a 64x64 tile at 60 degrees, 3.6 ms against 1.5 ms at 256x256 - for a
-  visibly smooth edge, once, while the texture is built).
-  `spriteColorMatrix(sprite, matrix)` (item 309) attaches any of the matrix
-  builders above (or `blendMatrix`, or a game's own) to a sprite as a `ColorMatrixFilter`, the
-  one remaining case that needed a direct `pixi.js` import just to construct that one class.
-  `applyAllImageModifiers(sprite, parsed, probe?, scale?)` (item 310) is the two-step recipe
-  `applyImageModifiers`'s own doc comment names, run for a caller in one call: it bakes
-  `applyTextureModifiers`'s exact pixel-level result into `sprite.texture` first, then applies
-  the sprite-property/filter modifiers on top, so a `~BLEND`/`~ROTATE` path never silently gets
-  `applyImageModifiers`'s no-op for them.
-- `remapPixels`/`paletteRangeMapping`/`recolorTexture`/`withTextureCanvas`/`PaletteMapping`/
-  `PaletteRange`/`PaletteRemapMode` - palette-remap recolouring (team colour by range, not
-  multiply/add): `remapPixels` is the renderer-free core, `'exact'` by default (a pixel is
-  repainted only on an exact match to a `from` colour, correct for a short specific list like
-  `~RC`/`~PAL` and for a `paletteRangeMapping` over a reference palette, where the pixels outside
-  it are the ones the art deliberately left alone) or `'nearest'` (every opaque pixel repainted by
-  closest match, which a palette covering the whole image wants - the wrong mode for a sparse
-  list, where it silently recolours the entire image). `paletteRangeMapping` builds a
-  `[color_range]`-shaped mapping: the reference palette's *first* colour is its anchor and becomes
-  `mid`, and every other entry is shaded by its own brightness, darker towards `min` and brighter
-  towards `max`, with the floored average and truncated blend a Wesnoth `[color_range]` team
-  colour is defined in, so a range's shades come out byte for byte as the engine's own. The
-  reference after its anchor needs no order. `recolorTexture` is the canvas-backed wrapper, built
-  on the shared `withTextureCanvas` helper `applyTextureModifiers` above also uses.
-- `AnimatedSprite`/`Animation` - frame-sequence sprite animation. A frame may carry its own
-  duration (Wesnoth's `image=a.png:120,b.png:80`), and an animation may start partway into itself
-  or after a delay (`startTime`, which is what `start_time=-450` on an attack means: begin four and
-  a half frames in, so the hit lines up with the damage frame). A frame may also carry an offset,
-  reported through `AnimatedSprite.frameOffset` for the caller to add where it positions the sprite,
-  because that position is the caller's (`GridMover`, a walk tween) and a sprite that overwrote it
-  every frame would undo it every frame.
-- `SpriteGroup`/`isOnScreen` (item 369) - animate only what is on screen: `update(camera, dt)`
-  advances the members inside `camera.view` (plus `margin`) and leaves the rest on their current
-  frame, so a crowd of `AnimatedSprite`s (or `ParticleEmitter`s, which satisfy the same
-  `SpriteGroupMember` shape) costs no CPU off screen. Never freezes anything visible: under a
-  rotated camera the tested box is the over-inclusive one `TileMap.cull` uses.
-- `SpriteSheet` - a grid-sliced sprite sheet, or, built with no frame size, one whose frames are
-  its own `rect(index, x, y, width, height)` declarations: a hand-packed icon atlas, a strip of bar
-  segments, an item whose art is smaller than its cell. A rect is cached under its index like any
-  grid frame, so `get`/`region`/`name`/`pick` treat the two the same and no site hand-builds a
-  `Texture`.
-- `Camera`/`createCamera`/`snapZoom` - world-to-screen camera; `snapZoom` keeps tile edges
-  pixel-aligned at a fractional zoom. Fixed-angle view rotation (item 285): `grid` picks four
-  quarter turns (square, the default) or six 60-degree steps (hex), `setRotationStep`/`rotate`
-  move through them, `toScreen`/`toWorld` invert the turn so a click still lands on the cell aimed
-  at, `view` reports the box around the turned viewport for culling, and `uprightRotation` is the
-  angle that keeps a label drawn into the world upright. Free rotation (item 286): `rotateTo` turns
-  to any angle immediately and `animateRotationTo` eases towards one, shorter way around the turn,
-  sharing the same angle and the same `toScreen`/`toWorld`/`view` math the stepped API uses.
-  `shakeScreen(intensity, duration)` (item 303) is `shake` taking screen pixels instead of world
-  units, dividing by the current `zoom` once so a caller thinking in screen pixels (a convention
-  several engines use for this call) does not have to at every call site.
-- `Viewport`/`splitScreenHalves` - a camera scoped to one screen region, for split-screen.
-- `createColorBlindnessFilter`/`COLOR_BLINDNESS_MATRICES` - accessibility colour filters.
-- `Minimap`/`newlyRevealed`/`minimapCellCenter`/`MinimapMarker` - bakes an explored-cell set
-  into a persistent `RenderTexture`, never redrawing an already-baked cell, and supports
-  several game-owned unit or quest markers.
-- `TileMap`/`EMPTY`/`tileFrame`/`tileFrameSheet`/`tileFrameIndex` - tile map rendering:
-  square/hex/isometric/staggered projections, multi-sheet tiles, elevation columns.
-- `LayeredSprite` - layered character sprites (body/hair/equipment as separate layers).
-- `SkeletalSprite`/`ArticulatedChain`/`ChainRig` (items 399/400) - bones driving drawn
-  parts: the pose math lives in the renderer-free `skeleton` module (bone tree, keyframed
-  clips, crossfade, priority layers), `SkeletalSprite` binds a part to a bone by name and
-  `update(dt)` places it at the bone's world transform, and `ArticulatedChain` is the
-  follower rule a keyframe cannot express - a serpent's spine whose segments ease toward
-  their parent's previous position within per-segment rotation limits.- `Projectile` - tweens a sprite in a straight line for a thrown/shot visual flourish; an
-  optional `animation` (item 311) advances flight frames with the tween's own elapsed time, read
-  back through `frame`/`frameOffset` so the caller can apply the frame's offset where it already
-  positions the sprite. `Flights` owns the live ones: `add(sprite | texture, from, to,
-  { speed, tint?, spin? | spinDegrees?, fadeIn?, onArrive? })` returns a handle, `update(dt)` drives
-  positions and dispatches each arrival exactly once, `cancel()`/`clear()` forget without
-  dispatching; caller sprites stay caller-owned while texture-built sprites are parented
-  here and destroyed with their flight. `spinDegrees` is `spin` in degrees per second
-  (converted once, so an authored angular speed needs no radian arithmetic at the call
-  site) and `fadeIn: 'progress'` (or `true`) eases the sprite's alpha 0 to 1 along the
-  tween's own progress instead of seconds from launch.
-- `LightningArc` - the position data for a jittered line between two points (a bolt, a tether):
-  `points` tapers to zero offset at both endpoints, `retarget` moves either endpoint for a
-  tether following two moving units, and an optional `flickerInterval` re-rolls the jitter on a
-  timer. Geometry only, drawn by the caller through `Shape2D`'s `Graphics`. `Beam` is the
-  drawn one-shot counterpart (a fading line, or a texture strip - repeating by default,
-  or `BeamTextureOptions`' `stretch: true` for art that spans the whole beam once, with an
-  `anchor` placing it across the thickness - additive by default, `retarget` moving
-  either end, `thin` narrowing the body as it fades, `update` reporting expiry once);
-  `Beams` owns the live ones with `add`/`update`/`clear` and destroys finished beams.
-- `SpriteAttachment` - ties a second sprite's position to a first one's: `follow(x, y)` applies
-  an offset, and an optional `duration` makes `update(dt)` report `done` once it elapses, so a
-  permanent shadow and a temporary status icon are the same class with different options.
-  Renderer-neutral like `Projectile`/`LightningArc`; z-order and parenting stay the caller's.
-- `LiquidLayer`/`LiquidLayerOptions` - an animated liquid surface under a map: one scrolling
-  tiling quad per liquid cell with its own visibility tint (`setCellColor`), and `ripple` rings
-  that grow and fade; pure decoration, every child opts out of pointer events.
-- `FogLayer`/`paintFogPixels`/`FogCell`/`FogColor`/`FogLayerOptions` - a smooth fog-of-war
-  overlay: a small linear-filtered canvas with `resolution` pixels per tile, so fog edges blur
-  across cells and one cell can be shaded in parts; `paintFogPixels` is the same shading as a
-  pure function over an RGBA buffer.
-- `TileMap.stampRect` copies a block of frames into a layer at a tile position and throws when
-  it does not fit; `AutotileSet.mode: 'mixed'` reads the MV A4 sheet's alternating rows with the
-  floor table (wall tops) and the wall table (wall faces).
-- `Halo`/`HALO_ANIMATION` - the glow around a unit, an aura, a shrine's light: an `AnimatedSprite`
-  drawn additively (Wesnoth's `[halo] blend_mode=add`) whose `follow(x, y)` applies the halo's own
-  offset once instead of in every game that draws one. Z-order stays the caller's, because a halo
-  that belongs behind its unit is added before it and one that belongs in front is added after, and
-  a framework that guessed would be wrong half the time.
-- `ParticleEmitter`/`Particle` - a pooled, seeded particle emitter (sparks, dust, rain):
-  `burst`/`start`/`stop` over a pool allocated once at `max`. Runs the whole simulation with
-  no `texture` given, which is how it is tested without a renderer. `ParticleSpawnArea` gives
-  births a local `rect` or `ellipse` extent instead of the emitter's single origin. `scale` and
-  `alpha` take a `ParticleCurve` (`t` over the particle's life) as well as the birth-to-death
-  pair, `tint` takes a `[from, to]` range each particle draws its own colour from channel by
-  channel, and `flicker` wobbles the scale every frame with a seeded draw (dropped under reduced
-  motion). All three draws happen only when used, so an existing emitter's seeded spray is
-  unchanged. `attach(target)` follows a display object or position thunk on every tick (with `offsetX`/`offsetY`, an `enabled` callback gating tick emission, a `visible` callback hiding the whole spray (fog-of-war gates) while the simulation steps on behind the invisibility, and auto-detach for destroyed targets); `detach()` keeps the last position.
-- `ScreenEffects`/`ScreenEffectStep` - a full-screen colour wash: `fadeOut`/`fadeIn`/`flash`/
-  `setTint`, driven by `update(dt)` returning true on the frame an effect completes.
-  `sequence(steps)` (item 302) chains fade/hold/flash steps end to end as one call, for the
-  hold-then-fade-back transition the four individual methods cannot express alone; `update`
-  keeps returning false at every step boundary, true only once the whole sequence finishes.
-- `SceneTransition`/`TransitionOptions`/`TransitionRunner`/`TransitionDisposition` + `transitionDisposition`, `tileShrink`, `shrink`, `pop`, `grow`, `slide`, `iris`
-  and `dissolve` - screen transitions: `Game.switchScene(Next, { transition, duration, easing })` photographs the
-  outgoing scene and animates it away (or grows the new one over it), `Scene2D.transitionTo(swap, options)` does
-  the same for a scene changing its own content, `Game.transitioning` tells a scene to ignore input, a second
-  transition requested while one plays is ignored unless its options say `queue: true` or `interrupt: true`
-  (`transitionDisposition` is that rule as a plain function), and
-  reduced motion skips it. `tileDelays`, `tileProgress`, `popScale`, `openAnimationFrame` and `resolveEasing` are the
-  timing as plain functions.
-- `ActorAnimator` - an idle/move/action animation state machine with one interruption rule.
-- `StatusVisuals` - composes every active status effect's colour additively onto a sprite's
-  `colorAdd` (item 301), instead of one status winning by declaration order; each channel clips
-  at 1 rather than wrapping. Never touches the multiply `tint`, so a sprite's own identity
-  tint (a team colour) survives underneath. `flash(color, strength, duration)` layers a
-  one-shot, linearly-decaying pulse (a hit, a heal) on top of whatever is active.
-- `SpriteMotion` - squash, hop, bob, wobble, spin, shear and flip over any display object's
-  transform through a `Tweener` (item 404). Effects compose from the rest pose captured at
-  construction, never drift, return a `MotionHandle` (`done`, `cancel()`), and follow
-  `setReducedMotion`; `destroy` restores the rest pose, flips included.
-- `ClothSprite` - a `physics` `Cloth` mesh drawn as a textured sprite on the 414 mesh
-  path (item 423): owns the simulation, `update(dt)` steps it and re-uploads the vertex
-  buffer, the top edge starts pinned, UVs are never rewritten. `setWind`/`pinPoint`/
-  `unpinPoint` tune it, and it honours `setReducedMotion`.
-- `Spring` - a damped 2D chase spring for secondary motion (item 424): the anchor
-  teleports, the bob lags, overshoots and settles through pure arithmetic, O(1) per
-  update, deterministic for a fixed `update(dt)` sequence. `place(target)` parks a
-  follower on the bob; honours `setReducedMotion`. `SpringSprite` draws the
-  anchor-to-bob line, redrawn by an explicit `sync()` after stepping.
-- `HazeLayer`/`hazeField`/`paintHazePixels` - an atmospheric haze sheet, never fog of war:
-  translucent drifting weather with soft edges, density and per-plane wind, on a small
-  canvas scaled up with linear filtering. `paintHazePixels` is the same shading as a pure
-  function over an RGBA buffer, which is how it is tested without a renderer.
-- `NeonGlow`/`glowFalloff`/`paintGlowPixels` - a soft additive halo baked from a shape or
-  mask, with colour, radius, intensity and flicker; a global bloom stays optional.
-- `loadTiledMap`/`TiledMapData`/`TiledTilesetData`/`TilesetSheet`/`LoadedTiledMap` - loads
-  Tiled JSON maps into a `TileMap`: orthogonal, isometric and staggered orientations, multiple
-  tilesets (embedded or external `.tsx`). Lives here rather than in `rpg` because what it
-  builds is a `TileMap` out of `SpriteSheet`s.
-- `blobIndex`/`autotileFrames`/`BLOB_SHAPES` - auto-tiling: the 47-shape "blob tile"
-  reduction of 8-neighbour terrain matches.
-- `rpgmAutotileFrame`/`RpgmAutotileAtlas` - renderer-neutral RPG Maker MV autotile atlas
-  geometry: decode one of the four atlas slots, select its four 24px source quadrants for a
-  shape, and describe their 48px output position. `RpgmAutotileAtlas` caches repeated frame
-  descriptions. `RPGM_FLOOR_AUTOTILE_TABLE`/`RPGM_WALL_AUTOTILE_TABLE` are the standard MV
-  shape tables, `RPGM_AUTOTILE_SLOT_BASES`/`RPGM_AUTOTILE_SLOT_COUNTS` the family address
-  facts, and `rpgmAutotileSlot` classifies a raw map id into its family (item 370).
-- `TileMap` `addAutotileLayer` over `AutotileSet`/`AutotileCell` - a native autotile layer:
-  raw MV ids or XP values route to the set claiming them, and the map assembles each
-  cell's quadrant halves straight from the source sheet (item 370). `setAutotileFrame`/
-  `getAutotileFrame` advance and read the animation frame; `setTile`/`getTile` keep
-  working with raw ids. `XP_AUTOTILE_PATTERNS`/`XP_NEIGHBORS_TO_PATTERN` are the XP
-  template and neighbourhood tables, `xpAutotileRef`/`xpAutotilePattern` decode and
-  compute XP cells, and `autotileCellParts`/`assertAutotileLayout` resolve and validate
-  one cell's pieces renderer-free.
-- `AutotileSet.tableEdge` with `rpgmTableEdgeCells` over `RpgmTableEdgeMap` - the front-edge strip
-  the engine draws under an A2 table: `rpgmTableEdgeCells` finds the cells that get one (table
-  above, none here, no A3/A4 wall on the ground layer) and the set draws its two half-height
-  pieces. `TileMap` `addShadowLayer` over `ShadowLayerOptions` adds the engine's shadow bits
-  (map layer 4) as translucent quarter-tile quads.
-- `resolveTerrainGraphics`/`matchTerrainRule`/`squareRotate`/`hexRotate` over `TerrainRule`/
-  `TerrainCondition`/`TerrainImage`/`TerrainPlacement`/`TerrainFlagsAt` - a rule-driven
-  `[terrain_graphics]`-style transition pass for what `Autotile`'s fixed 47-shape table cannot
-  express: flag conditions at arbitrary offsets, one rule placing more than one image (so a
-  piece bigger than one cell is the rule's own data, not something `TileMap` has to hold),
-  `rotations` (`squareRotate`'s 4 exact steps or `hexRotate`'s 6) and `probability` breaking a
-  tie among rules matching at equal specificity. Returns plain placement data.
-- `TerrainGraphicsLayer` over `TerrainGraphicsLayerOptions` - the renderer for that data: one
-  `Sprite2D` per placement, added in `layer` order (a stable sort, so the rule pass's own
-  row-major walk survives within a layer), each resolved through the asset resolver at the pixel
-  position the caller's `project` callback reports. `setPlacements` redraws; z-order against the
-  rest of the scene is the caller's, as it is for `Halo`.
-- `inspectGraphicsCapabilities`/`detectWebGpu`/`RENDERING_DECISIONS` - checks
-  WebGL/WebGPU/WGSL support and records this project's own rendering-backend decisions.
-- `Container2D`/`Texture2D`/`Rectangle2D`/`Rect`/`TextureRegion`/`rectOf` - the renderer
-  boundary names for common 2D values. The first three work in both type and value positions,
-  so a game can construct a container or use texture and rectangle constants without naming
-  `pixi.js`. For the rare need the facade does not cover, `two-d/pixi-interop` re-exports the
-  underlying Pixi classes explicitly.
-- `Node2D`/`Shape2D`/`Text2D`/`Sprite2D`/`TiledSprite`/`Gradient` - bare, MWG-named
-  re-exports of Pixi's `Container`/`Graphics`/`Text`/`Sprite`/`TilingSprite`/`FillGradient`:
-  a plain grouping layer, vector drawing, one-off text, a plain untinted sprite, a
-  repeating/scrolling texture, and a gradient fill/stroke, none of which needed new
-  behaviour, only a name a game can import without naming `pixi.js` itself. Prefer
-  `ui.Label`/`BitmapLabel` over `Text2D` for anything styled through `ui.theme()`, and
-  `render.TintedSprite` over `Sprite2D` the moment a colour transform is needed.
-- `createLayers(parent, names)` (item 312) - builds one labeled `Node2D` per name, attached to
-  `parent` in the order given and returned keyed by name, so a game's conventionally-ordered
-  layer stack (terrain, units, effects, UI, ...) is one call rather than a dozen hand-wired
-  containers.
-
-### `two-d/ui`
-
-Windows, lists, message boxes, HUD widgets - all themed from one live-swappable `Theme`.
-
-- `theme`/`setTheme`/`defaultTheme`/`highContrastTheme`/`themeChanged` - the active theme;
-  `setTheme` fires `themeChanged` so already-built widgets restyle in place.
-- `Label` - a themed text wrapper over Pixi `Text`; `stroke`/`resolution`/`roundPixels`
-  options, useful for text over artwork.
-- `parseMarkup`/`stripMarkup`/`markupToHtml`/`escapeHtml` over `MarkupSpan`/`MarkupOptions` - inline
-  markup (`<b>`, `<i>`, `<span color='…' size='…'>`, `<br/>`, `<img>path</img>`, `$name`, and the
-  five entities) as a renderer-neutral contract: a `MarkupSpan` is a `MarkdownSpan` plus the colour,
-  size and image a renderer may use, kept as written because resolving them is the renderer's
-  business. Unknown tags, malformed tags and unset variables stay literal rather than disappearing,
-  and `markupToHtml` is the escaped HTML fragment for a renderer that speaks HTML text - it now
-  also renders colour and size, as an inline style. `MarkupOptions.tags` (item 313) names extra
-  tags to treat as styling containers; a run inside one carries its name in `MarkupSpan.tag`, so a
-  renderer can resolve its style (Pixi's `tagStyles`) while the parser stays renderer-neutral, and
-  `markupToHtml` re-emits that tag as a real element for `HTMLText`. `markupAccessibilityText` is the proper
-  accessibility projection (an image becomes a caller-described string, not its raw path, which
-  `stripMarkup` keeps for round-tripping instead). `layoutMarkupLines` wraps already-parsed spans
-  word by word against a caller-supplied `MarkupMeasure`, each word measured under its own
-  span's style - wrapping computed *after* styling, so a bold or larger run wraps where its own
-  wider glyphs actually land - and `positionMarkupLines` places those already-laid-out lines into
-  `PositionedMarkupSpan` runs (one `x`/`y` per span) under a `MarkupLayout`'s `direction`/`align`,
-  so an `rtl` line flows right to left and alignment defaults to the direction's own edge. Both
-  are backend-neutral: the same spans, `measure` and `maxWidth` decide the same line breaks and
-  the same runs whether a caller then draws them through `HTMLText` or a canvas `Text2D` pass.
-- `MarkupText`/`MarkupTextOptions` - the canvas backend for that contract, the counterpart to
-  `RichLabel`'s HTML text: one `Text2D` per styled run and one `Sprite2D` per `<img>` span,
-  resolved through the asset resolver, so an image is drawn rather than a caller positioning it
-  itself at a `layoutMarkupLines` offset. It reads `direction` from the theme and takes
-  `maxWidth`/`lineHeight`/`align`/`resolveImage`/`variables`/`resolution` options, plus
-  `tagStyles` (item 313): a Pixi `TextStyleOptions` record keyed by custom tag, applied to each
-  run and used when measuring it, so `<quest>...</quest>` is styled and wraps under its own font.
-- `RichLabel`/`parseMarkdown`/`stripMarkdown`/`sliceSpans` - basic inline markdown (`**bold**`,
-  `*italic*`, combined `***both***`, backslash escapes) through Pixi `HTMLText`, which is
-  what makes mixed styles inside one string possible at all. `parseMarkdown` is pure
-  span-splitting (unmatched markers stay literal); `stripMarkdown` recovers plain text;
-  `sliceSpans` takes the first N visible characters with styles kept, for progressive
-  reveal without leaking half-shown markers. Costs more than a `Label`, so this is for
-  descriptions and help bodies, not per-frame numbers. `tagStyles` (item 313) takes Pixi
-  `HTMLTextStyleOptions` keyed by custom tag; a registered tag survives escaping as a real element
-  for `HTMLText` to style, while an unregistered one is still escaped as literal text.
-- `startReveal`/`advanceReveal`/`completeReveal`/`revealComplete` - the shared
-  progressive-display primitive: one character count behind `MessageBox` pages (which
-  already revealed this way), `Label` lines, and `RichLabel` markdown. `Label` and
-  `RichLabel` expose it as `showProgressive`/`updateReveal`/`completeReveal`, driven by
-  the game's own frame loop; `MessageBox` keeps its confirm-completes-then-advances rule
-  on top unchanged.
-- `BitmapLabel`/`bitmapLabelStyle` - bitmap-font-backed text, for a HUD value redrawn
-  every frame where `Label`'s per-string texture re-render would be wasteful.
-- `NinePatch` - a resizable nine-slice panel.
-- `Window` - a themed panel container. `open({ animation, from })` plays `pop`, `grow`, `slide` or `fade`
-  (`WindowAnimation`) and `close({ animation })` plays it backwards before closing, both driven by
-  `update(dt)` and skipped under reduced motion. `close()` frees the window and its contents and is
-  idempotent; `closed` is the guard for the caller's reference afterwards (input and `place` on a
-  closed window are no-ops), and `WindowStack.push` refuses one with a named error. A window's own
-  area is not clickable, so a click travels to whatever is under it; `blocker: true` adds the
-  full-viewport layer that swallows clicks and dismisses the window for a click outside it
-  (`handleOutsideClick` is that decision).
-- `WindowStack` - keyboard focus goes to the top window only; dims what's underneath; `blocker` on
-  a window is what stops clicks reaching the map behind it. `handleAction(action)` is public so a
-  scene with its own key handling can ask the windows first: `Input.onAction` offers an action to
-  the most recently registered listener first, so a scene that registers after building its stack
-  is asked before the windows are and can swallow a key they need.
-- `MessageBox.blocker` - whether a click under the box reaches the map behind it; on by default,
-  and since the box is not closable that can only ever swallow clicks rather than dismiss it.
-  `blocker: false` is for a box the player is meant to click past.
-- `ListView` - a scrollable, keyboard- and pointer-navigable row list (click, wheel-scroll);
-  `multiple` checks rows instead of picking one, read back through `checkedIndexes`.
-- `IconGrid` - a multi-column icon-grid inventory view; tap-then-tap "drag and drop",
-  frame-driven long-press for a quickslot.
-- `TabbedList`/`ListTab`/`TabbedListOptions` - a renderer-free model for an inventory, journal,
-  shop or codex: caller-supplied tabs and rows (no assumed taxonomy), an optional label,
-  filter and disabled predicate, selection that skips disabled rows, a page derived from the
-  selection rather than tracked beside it, and an `openDetail`/`closeDetail` state.
-- `Slider`/`SliderOptions` + `sliderFraction`/`sliderValueAt` - a draggable knob on a themed track;
-  the two pure functions are the value/track arithmetic (clamping, the step grid, the degenerate
-  range), so a game routing its own input snaps the same way.
-- `Checkbox`/`CheckboxOptions` - a ticked-or-not box; a caption is a `Label` the game places beside
-  it, and `onChange` fires only when the state moves.
-- `RadioGroup`/`RadioOption`/`RadioGroupOptions` - exactly one choice among several: arrows
-  move the selection and select at once, a tap selects directly, disabled options are skipped.
-- `Spinner`/`SpinnerOptions` + `spinValue` - an up/down numeric stepper; `spinValue` is the rule
-  (snap to the step, then clamp at the ends or wrap past them).
-- `DropdownView`/`DropdownViewOptions` - the widget over a `Dropdown` model: a button showing the choice
-  that opens a column of `Button`s on an opaque backdrop, the highlighted one marked with
-  `Button.setSelected`. `maxVisibleRows` makes a long list scroll (wheel, touch, keys, scrollbar) and it opens with
-  the chosen row in view; `autoWidth` fits the longest label, `maxWidth` caps that widening, and `resize(width)`
-  re-lays the button and list in place; `handleKey` (arrows, Page, Home/End, Enter,
-  Escape) and `handleOutsideClick` are what the scene forwards from its own input; `fitBelow` limits the
-  rows to what the viewport leaves under the button.
-- `Dropdown`/`DropdownOption`/`DropdownOptions` - a renderer-free option button: a selected entry,
-  an open list, a highlight that starts on the selection and skips disabled options. `setHighlight(i)`
-  opens the list on that row, so `setHighlight(i); confirm()` is a whole programmatic pick.
-- `TextModel`/`TextModelOptions` - the editing state behind a text field, fed by `core.Input`'s
-  `onText`: caret, anchor, selection-replacing edits, a length cap and a mask. Renderer-free.
-  `multiline` keeps real newlines with row navigation (`lineCount`, `caretLine`, `lineRange`,
-  `moveCaretLine` holding a sticky goal column); single-line fields strip them on every edit.
-- `TextPrompt`/`TextPromptOptions` - a modal single-line text field over a `TextModel` (a name
-  entry, a save-slot label): typing through `onText`, caret and edits through `left`/`right`/
-  `backspace`/`delete` actions, `confirm` gated by `validate` (the error shows and announces
-  assertively, the prompt stays open), `cancel` giving up. IME compositions preview until
-  they commit, and the message plus validation errors announce through `screenReader`.
-  The interface example's Name button is the reviewed hosting pattern: push it on a
-  `WindowStack` and it owns focus, closing and the stack's un-popping by itself.
-  The touch half (roadmap 402): `keyboard: UPPERCASE_KEYBOARD` (or any `KeyboardLayout`)
-  hosts one beneath the field and resizes the window to fit it - `OnScreenKeyboard`,
-  next.
-- `OnScreenKeyboard`/`KeyboardLayout`/`KeyboardKey` + `UPPERCASE_KEYBOARD`/`pressKey`/
-  `layoutKeys` - pointer-only typing: a layout is rows of keys as plain data (ragged rows
-  fine), each key a caption, the `text` it types (defaulting to its label), or the named
-  `action` it fires instead, plus a `span` in row units for a space bar. The class renders
-  it through the theme's own `Button` and reports `contentHeight` so a host can size
-  itself; `pressKey` is the pure dispatch rule (`dispatchText` for a typing key,
-  `dispatchAction` for an action key, the two paths a physical key travels, so no
-  listener can tell a tap from a keystroke) and `layoutKeys` the rows-to-buttons
-  arithmetic behind it. `UPPERCASE_KEYBOARD` is the one shipped default: the alphabet
-  over a digit row, then `Bksp`, caret moves, space, `OK`, `Esc`.
-- `DataTable`/`TableColumn`/`DataTableOptions` - a renderer-free columned table: sort by a column
-  (toggling direction), a highlight that skips disabled rows, and a page derived from the
-  highlight.
-- `TreeView`/`TreeNode`/`TreeRow`/`TreeViewOptions` - a renderer-free collapsible tree, flattened to
-  the rows on screen; collapsing the branch the highlight is inside lands it on the branch.
-- `ScrollBox`/`ScrollBoxOptions`/`ScrollKey` + `scrollOffset` - a clipped viewport with a themed scrollbar;
-  `scrollOffset` is the clamping rule the wheel, `scrollBy` and `scrollIntoView` all share. `touch: true` lets a
-  finger drag the content (a drag cancels the tap on the row under it) and coast on release, `handleKey`
-  scrolls by line, page and to either end, the thumb drags and the track jumps, and `autoHeight` sizes the
-  viewport to the content up to `height`. The box owns its `hitArea` (its viewport, kept current by `resize` and
-  `setContentHeight`), so the wheel reaches it without a row under the pointer. `update(dt)` drives the coasting.
-- `ScrollDrag` - touch scrolling as plain numbers (`start`/`move`/`end`/`step`): how far the content follows a
-  finger and how it coasts after release, with no pointer events or clock of its own.
-- `ScrollText`/`ScrollTextOptions` - a wrapped `Label` in a self-sizing `ScrollBox`: as tall as the text up to
-  `maxHeight`, scrolling beyond it, re-measured by `setText` and re-wrapped in place by `resize(width)`.
-- `MarqueeLabel`/`MarqueeLabelOptions` + `marqueeOffset` - one line that stays on one line: a long text slides
-  back and forth in a clipped window (and holds still, cut short, under reduced motion).
-- `ellipsize` and `truncateLines` - cut a text to a width or a number of lines, ending in an ellipsis, with the
-  caller supplying the measuring function.
-- `flowLayout(items, width, { gap, align })` - left-to-right rows that wrap, returning each item's
-  position and the total height: a toolbar that takes two rows on a phone.
-- `Grid`/`GridSpec`/`GridTrack` + `resolveAnchor`/`anchorAlign` with `Anchor`/`AnchorSpec`/
-  `LayoutRect` - data-driven shell layout (item 263): named anchors placed inside bounds (margin,
-  offset, fill), and columns/rows that are `size` or `grow`, so one sidebar plus one content column
-  needs neither side to know the window's width. Pure geometry, renderer-free.
-- `Skins` with `Skin`/`SkinStates`/`SkinData`/`WidgetState` - per-widget, per-state looks looked up
-  by name, the counterpart the one global `Theme` has no room for. A lookup falls back widget state
-  -> widget idle -> wildcard state -> wildcard idle -> `{}`, and `Skins.from` reads the plain data a
-  config file would parse into.
-- `MessageBox` - dialogue text box: paged reveal, choices, ADV/NVL display modes,
-  `autoAdvance`, and timed `{sound:path}` markers delivered through `onSound`.
-- `messageBoxPresenter` - wires `rpg.EventRunner`'s dialogue to a `MessageBox` on a
-  `WindowStack`, in one argument: `present: messageBoxPresenter(this.windows)`.
-- `VerticalLabel`/`layoutVertical` - vertical writing layout, with CJK glyph rotation.
-- `RebindScreen` - a keybind-rebinding flow over `Input`, with an optional conflict hook.
-- `SettingsScreen`/`SettingsCustomRow`/`SettingsScreenOptions` (item 364) - a ready-made
-  settings screen over `core.Settings`: music/sfx sliders, mute checkbox, zoom slider,
-  one row per `custom` descriptor (boolean/number/choice), an embedded controls page
-  that writes rebinds back into `Settings` on exit, and a reset row. `cancel` on the
-  main page returns false for the caller to close.
-- `Button`/`ButtonSkin`/`ButtonState` - idle/hover/pressed/disabled clickable region, icon
-  and/or text, optional per-button nine-patch skin with per-state tints.
-- `Bar` - a filled-proportion track (health/mana/XP); flat colour or texture, optional
-  `roundUpToPixel` so a nonzero value never rounds down to invisible.
-- `Meter`/`MeterOptions` (item 368) - a discrete meter: N icons with a value filled, the
-  heart row or star rating to `Bar`'s continuous fill. Fractions clip mid-icon through a
-  mask, so halves need no extra art; flat theme pips by default, a game-supplied
-  filled/empty texture pair (which must come together) otherwise.
-- `FloatingText`/`floatingTextAlpha`/`floatingTextRise`/`floatingTextAgeAtLeast` - a rising, fading
-  damage/pickup number and its pure motion, opacity and age curves; `FloatingTextStack` with
-  `floatingTextStackLift`/`floatingTextStackMoves`/`floatingTextStackLifePenalty` and
-  `FLOATING_TEXT_STACK_GAP` stacks simultaneous pop-ups at one world point without overlap, lifting
-  the lines already there the way Java's `FloatingText.push()` does.
-- `MessageLog`/`linesToDrop`/`takeLastEntries`/`MessageLogEntry`/`MessageLevel`/`MessageLogOptions` - a player-facing message pane:
-  one coloured block per message (info, positive, negative, warning, highlight) that drops the
-  oldest blocks once the wrapped lines pass a cap; `linesToDrop` is that budget as a pure function,
-  and `lastEntries(n)` reads the newest retained entries back as `{ text, level }` records
-  (oldest first) without scraping rendered children.
-- `fitWindowZoom`/`sharpenText` - step a window stack's integer zoom down until its content fits
-  the viewport, and re-rasterise every `Text` under a zoomed container at device ratio times its
-  on-screen scale so it is not magnified 1x text.
-- `Toast` - a queued, timed pop-up notification (fade in, hold, fade out).
-- `Tooltip` - a hover explanation over a themed `Window`: a frame-driven hover delay, and
-  edge-aware placement that flips rather than letting the panel run off screen.
-- `TooltipHost`/`TooltipHostOptions`/`TooltipTarget` - drives one `Tooltip` from rectangles: a press that rests
-  for `longPress` seconds shows the text on a touch screen, and a disabled `Button` (which gets no pointer
-  events) is still explained from its bounds and its `tooltip`. `attach(pointer)` wires an
-  `Input.attachPointer` tracker.
-- `HelpScreen` - a topic-list-plus-body help/controls screen.
-- `StatsScreen` - a player-stats display screen.
-- `LoadingScreen` - a progress-bar loading screen wired to `core.LoadQueue`.
-- `ScreenReader`/`screenReader` - the screen-reader bridge: `Window` announces its title,
-  `MessageBox` each page and its choices, and `TextPrompt` its message and validation errors
-  through a visually hidden `aria-live` region, and a game's own widgets use the same
-  `screenReader.announce(text, { assertive })`. No-ops where there is no DOM, so ordinary
-  scene code needs no guard around it.
-- `contrastRatio`/`meetsContrast`/`relativeLuminance`/`ContrastLevel` - WCAG contrast for a
-  `theme` palette: the standard luminance and ratio formulas with AA/AAA thresholds, so a
-  game checks its own colours rather than guessing.
-
-### `two-d/stage`
-
-Dialogue scenes: backdrop, characters, a script runner - the visual-novel half.
-
-- `DialogueStage`/`CharacterDefinition`/`ShowOptions` - backdrop plus character
-  conversation scenes; the speaking character lit, others dimmed.
-- `StageScript`/`StageCommand`/`StageChoice`/`StoryScript` - a command interpreter;
-  `runStory` follows a named-passage graph (`{goto}`, choice jumps); `history`/`showLast`
-  for read-only dialogue rollback; `skipSeen` for auto-advancing already-read lines;
-  `ScriptOptions.mode: 'nvl'` for the accumulating-block presentation.
-- `importTwee`/`TwineStory` - imports Twee-notation Twine stories into `StageScript`'s
-  command format, a thin wrapper around `core.parseTwee` naming the `StoryScript` return
-  type. `rpg.importTwee` is the same wrapper around the same engine, targeting
-  `EventStoryScript` instead, so a text-only RPG needs no Pixi dependency to import a
-  branching Twee story, and a visual novel that never touches map events needs no `rpg`
-  dependency either.
-- `parseDialogueText`/`extractDialogueCatalog` - a terse line-based dialogue format for
-  straight (non-branching) scenes: `@id text` names the speaker, an unprefixed line
-  narrates, and `- text` alternates between the first two speakers established by `@id`
-  lines (capped at two - a third distinct speaker is refused). A thin wrapper around
-  `core.parseDialogueLines`, mapping its `speaker` field onto `StageCommand`'s `as`.
-  `extractDialogueCatalog` builds an identity `i18n` catalog from the resulting commands
-  (or a `StoryScript`), the same shape MWL's own `extractCatalog` builds from
-  `_("...")`-marked strings. `rpg.parseDialogueText` is the same wrapper around the same
-  engine, targeting `EventCommand` instead, so a text-only RPG needs no Pixi dependency to
-  use it, and a visual novel that never touches map events needs no `rpg` dependency either.
-- `StoryScreen`/`StoryScreenOptions` with `StorySequence`/`StoryBeat` - the between-scenario
-  interlude `DialogueStage` is not: a full-screen backdrop, title and text advanced by a click. The
-  sequencing (advance/back/`goTo`/`skip`/`restart`, and the current beat's `music` reported as a
-  signal so the game plays it) lives in the renderer-free `StorySequence`, and a `StoryBeat` has
-  the same `{ text, title, image, music }` shape as `MwlWorld.story`.
-
-## `assets`
-
-The `file://` story: a compiled build resolves paths through a `data:` URI map; dev mode
-serves them normally. Load once per scene; everything after is synchronous. The compiler side
-of this (`tools/compile-resources.mjs`, `tools/emit-page.mjs`, `tools/single-file.mjs`) offers
-independent build options on top of that one story - multi-file vs. single-file output,
-compression (gzip or brotli, single-file only), WebP image conversion and SVG optimisation
-(`svgo: true`, ids and `viewBox` kept, only when smaller) - documented in
-`DEVELOPMENT.md`'s "Build options" section and `tools.md`'s tool reference; none of them
-change what a game calls to load an asset.
-
-Split by renderer specificity: `assets/paths.ts` resolves paths and needs no renderer,
-`assets/binary.ts` caches raw bytes just as renderer-free, `assets/loader.ts` fetches and
-decodes *textures* through Pixi. The `assets` barrel exposes all three; a game rendering
-through something else imports `@datamoc/mw_games/assets/paths` or
-`@datamoc/mw_games/assets/binary` and pays nothing for Pixi, which is how `3d` and `audio`
-reach the compiled asset map without it.
-
-- `setBase`/`setAssetMap`/`isCompiled`/`paths`/`has`/`resolve` - dev-vs-compiled path
-  resolution, renderer-free (also its own entry point, `@datamoc/mw_games/assets/paths`).
-  `setAssetMap` hands these a game's own path-to-URI map directly (item 300), for a game
-  bundled by its own tool rather than `tools/compile-resources`, and takes priority over
-  `window.__MWG_ASSETS__` while set; `undefined` reverts to it.
-- `load`/`texture`/`get`/`isLoaded`/`release` - load assets by path, read them back
-  synchronously, and free GPU memory once a zone is no longer needed. `load(paths,
-  { resolution })` rasterizes a vector source (SVG) at a multiple of its intrinsic size, so a
-  game that zooms into an icon asks for a `2` or `3` instead of shipping a soft bitmap;
-  `onProgress` is the same `LoadQueue` seam whether passed alone or in the options. `optional`
-  loads those paths separately so one missing file never aborts the required batch, calling
-  `onMissing` for each; `texture`/`get` take a `fallback` returned instead of a throw for a
-  path that never loaded, so a caller stops needing its own try/catch around a missing asset.
-- `sanitizeSvg`/`svgScaleVariants`/`svgDataUri`/`splitSvgGroups` (item 398) - SVG as
-  inbound data: `sanitizeSvg` refuses what it cannot prove inert by name (script,
-  `foreignObject`, event handlers, `javascript:` and active `data:` URLs - a gate, never
-  a silent rewrite), `svgScaleVariants` rasterizes one proven-inert source once per named
-  scale with its resolution hint, and `splitSvgGroups` loads a group-authored SVG as one
-  standalone part per top-level `<g id=...` group, the authoring form for an SVG puppet.  `load` also supplies Pixi's `Assets.add` a `format` hint - the original path's own extension
-  - whenever the resolved `src` is a compiled build's `data:` URI (item 308): a `data:` URI
-  carries no extension of its own for Pixi's resolver to pick a parser from, which otherwise
-  left a game no way to load a compiled asset without building its own `{src, parser}`
-  descriptor by hand.
-- `loadBinary`/`getBinary`/`isBinaryLoaded`/`releaseBinary` - the renderer-free counterpart
-  to `load`/`texture`/.../`release`, caching raw `ArrayBuffer`s instead of Pixi textures
-  (also its own entry point, `@datamoc/mw_games/assets/binary`); `3d/models`' `Vox.parseVox`
-  is the direct consumer, taking bytes this now fetches and caches instead of a game doing
-  it by hand.
-- `AssetStream`/`AssetBundle` - preloads likely-next bundles with LRU eviction under a
-  byte budget, for progressive loading between scenes.
-- `fetchWithByteProgress`/`ByteProgress`/`OnByteProgress` - real cumulative byte-progress
-  reporting, for a server or desktop host (not `file://`, which blocks `fetch` entirely).
-
-## `audio`
-
-- `Sound` - a pooled, round-robin one-shot sound effect player. `play(gain, pitch)` takes an
-  optional pitch as `HTMLAudioElement.playbackRate` (1 unchanged); there is no matching `pan` -
-  a plain `<audio>` element has no pan of its own, the same reason `Positional.audioPan` only
-  reports a number rather than owning a panner node. `suspend` cuts in-flight sounds and
-  silences `play` until `resume`.
-- `onCaption`/`CaptionEvent` - accessibility captions fired alongside a sound cue.
-- `Music` - crossfading background music. `suspend` pauses the current and fading tracks
-  and freezes `update` until `resume` restarts the current one where it paused. `duck`
-  glides to an attenuated level until `unduck`, for dialogue and menus.
-- `createAudio`/`Playable` - an injectable audio backend (tests supply a fake in place of `new Audio()`).
-- `Orchestrator`/`OrchestratorState` - maps a named game state ("combat", "boss") to a
-  `Music` track and crossfade, and fires one-shot cues by event name; re-entering the same
-  state never restarts its track. `suspend`/`resume` silence and restore the music and
-  every cue.
-- `AudioListener`/`SoundSource`/`AudioFalloff` - positional audio: a listener the game moves,
-  a `Sound` placed at a point, and `audioGain`/`audioPan` turning distance and heading into a
-  volume and a stereo position. `SoundSource.playFor` applies the distance gain through
-  `Sound.play`; panning is reported for a backend that has a panner. `Music` stays global.
-- `XpbdWorld` (`@datamoc/mw_games/physics/xpbd`) - a deterministic structure solver
-  (extended position-based dynamics): `addNode`/`addLink` (stiffness, `tensionOnly` cables, `strength`/
-  `tensionStrength`), `applyForce`, `step()` on fixed substeps, the load of every link read back
-  (`force`, smoothed `ratio`, `peakRatio`) and `onBreak` when a link passes its strength; `ground` (a height or a function of x) holds nodes
-  on a surface with `groundFriction`. The engine of
-  Pontifex, generalised: bridges, trusses, cranes, anything where the question is which beam fails.
-  `XpbdWorld<T>`/`XpbdLink<T>`/`XpbdLinkSpec<T>` carry game-owned link `data` without
-  affecting the solver. `breakLink(index)` dispatches rupture once. `linksInBox` includes
-  segment crossings; `linksNear` orders nearby unbroken segments by distance. `snapshot()`
-  returns positions, velocities, load state and queued forces as detached arrays; `hash()`
-  compares their exact numeric bits for runs with the same configuration. Payloads and ground
-  callbacks are excluded. The bridge example applies a moving vehicle's weight with `applyForce`.
-- `PhysicsWorld` (`@datamoc/mw_games/physics`) - rigid bodies and constraints in plain TypeScript, no engine
-  dependency: `addBox`/`addCircle`/`addConstraint`/`remove`, `update(dt)` from
-  `Scene.update`, `onContact`, `alpha` for interpolation. A constraint with `maxStretch` breaks when pulled
-  that far past its rest length (`onBreak`, `stretchOf`). Bodies never spin; `angle` is a display offset.
-- `synthesizeTone`/`synthesizeSound`/`playTone`/`Waveform` - a runtime square/triangle/sine/noise/sawtooth
-  waveform synth for a procedural tone or SFX, no sample library; `synthesizeSound` returns a
-  pooled `Sound` over the tone.
-- `parseMidi`/`scheduleMidi`/`midiLoopStart`/`noteToFrequency`/`MidiPlayer` - a small `.mid` file player
-  built on `synthesizeTone` rather than a licensed instrument library: program, bank,
-  controller and pitch-bend events plus the controller-111 loop start, with each
-  scheduled note carrying its channel voice. `MidiPlayer.create(file, { humanize })`
-  humanizes first and then schedules, for the same player with a performance behind it.
-- `renderMidiToBuffer` - renders a parsed `.mid` file to stereo PCM frames, offline and
-  deterministic: browsers cannot decode MIDI, so the file is synthesized once and plays
-  back like any decoded track, with its controller-111 loop region. An optional game-supplied
-  `SoundFont` voices real samples; without one the built-in waveform synth plays.
-- `renderMidiToBufferAsync` - the same render as raw MIDI bytes, run on a worker thread so
-  the seconds a real track costs (2 to 11.8) do not freeze the loading screen. Parse,
-  schedule and voice lookup stay on the caller's thread; the stereo buffers come back
-  transferred rather than copied, and the result is bit-identical to the synchronous
-  render because both call the same function. `soundFontBytes` takes raw SoundFont 2 data.
-- `parseSoundFont` - reads SoundFont 2 bytes into layered preset voices (key and velocity
-  ranges, tuning, loops, envelopes, pan, attenuation); the font file itself stays the
-  game's to ship and to license. A SoundFont 3 (Ogg Vorbis samples) is refused by name
-  rather than read as noise: `loadSoundFont` reads either kind.
-- `loadSoundFont` - reads a SoundFont 2 or 3 into layered preset voices: a plain font goes
-  straight to `parseSoundFont`, a SoundFont 3 is decoded first, through
-  `webAudioSampleDecoder()` in a browser unless `{ decode }` names another decoder. It
-  is what a game calls on the bytes it ships, whichever kind they are.
-- `decodeSoundFont` - a SoundFont 3 as plain SoundFont 2 bytes: every sample a preset reaches
-  goes through the decoder once (an unreachable one never does), and the loop points a
-  SoundFont 3 states relative to its sample become the absolute ones SoundFont 2 uses. A
-  SoundFont 2 comes back unchanged. The result feeds anything that takes SoundFont 2 bytes,
-  `renderMidiToBufferAsync` included.
-- `webAudioSampleDecoder`/`SoundFontSampleDecoder` - the decoder contract (Ogg bytes and the
-  sample's own rate in, mono 16-bit frames out, synchronous or not) and the browser
-  implementation of it over `decodeAudioData`: each sample decodes in a context created at its
-  own rate, so the browser never resamples it. A Node tool passes a decoder of its own.
-- `collectSoundFontUsage` - lists the (bank, program) pairs scheduled notes actually
-  request across MIDI files, drums as bank 128, for the compile step to keep.
-- `missingSoundFontPrograms` - the pairs of a usage list a font does not carry (the bank 0
-  fallback counts as carried, a drum kit needs that exact kit), on a SoundFont 2 or 3. The
-  build runs it for you: each embedded font's result lists its `missing` programs and
-  `mwg-emit` warns.
-- `mergeSoundFonts` - joins several SoundFont 2 files (or several SoundFont 3 files, the
-  Ogg bytes copied untouched) into one, presets in the order given and the first font winning
-  a shared (bank, program), which is how single-instrument files (the per-program collection
-  `mwg-soundfonts fetch` reads) become the one file a game ships.
-- `subsetSoundFont` - writes a smaller valid SoundFont 2 (or 3) file carrying only the used
-  programs, zones and samples copied verbatim and indexes remapped, so a game ships
-  megabytes instead of tens of megabytes with identical voices. The build does this
-  on its own: `compileResources` (and so `emitPage` and `mwgPage`) embeds `.mid`,
-  `.sf2` and `.sf3` assets, and subsets every embedded SoundFont to the programs the embedded
-  MIDI files use. `soundFont: false` embeds the font whole, `soundFontUsage` names
-  the programs explicitly, and with no shipped MIDI the font embeds whole because
-  the usage is unknowable. The reference bank in `data/microgm-opt.sf2` (2.6 MB,
-  WTFPL, shipped in the npm package for a game to copy into its assets) drops to
-  tens of kilobytes per game this way: measured, piano and drums come to 264 KB, eight
-  essential programs (piano, guitar, bass, strings, brass, flute, synth lead, drums) to 421 KB,
-  sixteen to 585 KB. A program the font lacks plays the font's own piano (preset 0:0) and,
-  only when it has no piano either, the built-in synthesizer; `parseSoundFont(data, { missingProgram:
-  'synth' })` (also on `loadSoundFont` and `renderMidiToBufferAsync`) hands those instruments to
-  the synthesizer instead of a piano line, and a bank missing the program or a drum kit still falls
-  back to bank 0 or the standard kit, never to a melodic preset. It is the default bank. A game that wants another
-  picks it from `data/soundfont-catalog.json` and fetches just its instruments with
-  `mwg-soundfonts` (see [tools.md](tools.md)). A SoundFont 3 stays compressed all the way to
-  the page (FluidR3's piano, guitar and drums: 2.7 MB, against 20 MB decoded to a SoundFont 2),
-  and `loadSoundFont` decodes it at load, so prefer it over a SoundFont 2 for anything but the
-  smallest banks.
-- `createAudioLoader`/`AudioLoaderOptions` - a cached loader for embedded audio and MIDI,
-  shared by all `AudioBus` lifetimes. MIDI is detected by header and rendered on a worker;
-  other files use `decodeAudioData`. Options select SoundFont/render settings or a byte source.
-  `AudioBus` uses this loader by default, so `playBgm` and `playSe` accept asset paths with
-  the same volume, pitch and pan fields. BGM/BGS loop; ME/SE play once.
-- `MusicPlayer`/`MusicPlayerOptions`/`MusicPlayOptions` - one loaded `AudioBuffer` or
-  `RenderedMidi`, with play, pause, resume, seek, position, volume and an `onEnded` signal.
-  Call `update()` each frame to dispatch track completion and choose the next track.
-  `toAudioBuffer(context, rendered)` copies rendered stereo samples into an `AudioBuffer`.
-- `Channel`/`AudioBus` - buffered WebAudio music: a `Channel` plays one looping track with
-  volume, pitch, pan, a loop region and a seekable playhead, and an `AudioBus` wires two of
-  them into independent BGM/BGS loops, ME jingles that suspend and resume the BGM,
-  overlapping SE one-shots, save and replay with playheads, and plain-data snapshots.
-  `AudioBus.setMixer(kind, { volume, muted })` scales a whole kind on top of each track's
-  own volume, without changing what snapshots report.
-- `MidiSynth`/`MidiSynthFactory`/`MidiSynthRequest` + `registerMidiSynth`, `unregisterMidiSynth`,
-  `midiSynthNames`, `resolveMidiSynth`, `renderMidiThroughSynth`, `renderMidiStems`,
-  `onMidiSynthFallback` and `INTERNAL_MIDI_ENGINES` - the named-engine contract for MIDI:
-  a package registers a synth under a name (`retro:mt32`), content asks for it by name, and
-  resolution walks the request, then the internal names (`gm-soundfont`, `builtin`), firing
-  `onMidiSynthFallback` whenever another engine voices the file instead. `timedMidiMessages`
-  is the raw timed message stream a synth is driven by.
-- `StreamPlayable`/`StreamChannel` - the streaming half of the `Playable` contract: seek and
-  `currentTime` on a synthesised stream, `playbackRate` by resampling, and a playhead counted
-  in frames, so endless formats (NSF, SID) play without a whole-track render.
-- `TrackCache`/`createBudgetedLoader`/`BusBudgetPolicy` + `bufferBytes` - bus render budgets:
-  an LRU cache of decoded tracks under a megabyte and entry cap, with `maxSeconds`, mono or
-  half-rate rendering for ambience through `fitToBudget` and `resampleStereo`.
-- `DEFAULT_DECODER_LIMITS`/`decoderLimits`/`DecodeBudgetError`/`InstructionBudget` +
-  `assertInputSize`, `guardBlockSource` and `inflateBounded` - the decoder guards for
-  untrusted retro formats: input and inflate ceilings, an instruction budget per second of
-  sound, and one named error per breach instead of a hang.
-- `SfxBank`/`SfxSound`/`SfxArbiter` + `sfxSeed` - data sound effects: synthesised chip
-  effects with a deterministic seed, arbitrated against the `se` bus by priority, firing
-  captions like a file effect.
-- `AudioSettings`/`AudioSettingsData`/`AudioRegion`/`OutputStage` + `regionPlaybackRate`,
-  `softenCutoff` and `dynamicsLimit` - the player-facing audio settings in one plain-data
-  object: volume per bus (applied to an `AudioBus` by `applyToBus`), the preferred MIDI
-  engine name, PAL or NTSC region (a tune authored for one runs slower or faster on the
-  other, `regionPlaybackRate`), a faithful or clean output stage, caption display, a
-  dynamics control (a soft limiter, `dynamicsLimit`) and bright-sound softening (a falling
-  low-pass cutoff, `softenCutoff`). A CPU and underrun indicator reads `AudioCoreHost`'s
-  stats and `onAudioUnderrun`.
-- `waveformEnvelope`/`channelEnvelopes`/`WaveformBucket` and
-  `trackerPattern`/`trackerNoteName`/`TrackerRow` - the data cores of the audio views: a
-  waveform as per-bucket min/max pairs per channel (what an oscilloscope draws), and a
-  MIDI file as tracker rows, one column per channel on the file's own tick grid. A game
-  draws them with its own widgets; the reduction and the grid live here and are tested as
-  arithmetic.
-- `SyxBank`/`SyxPatch` + `splitSysex` and `dx7PatchNames` - a `.syx` bank a player drops:
-  its whole sysex messages, the patch names of every checksummed DX7 32-voice bulk dump in
-  it (another maker's bank names nothing rather than guessing), and an `audition` that
-  loads a patch into a `MidiSynth` and renders one note through it for a settings screen.
-- `connectWebMidi`/`requestWebMidiInput`/`WebMidiConnection` - live Web MIDI into a
-  `MidiSynth`: every input port of a `MIDIAccess` is wired to the synth (channel messages
-  to `event`, sysex to `sysex`, transport dropped), and `requestWebMidiInput` is the
-  browser entry that returns null where Web MIDI does not exist or was refused.
-- `AdaptiveMusic` - adaptive tracks: mute and unmute stems of a running track with a fade,
-  and switch between two versions at the same frame position; `loopRegionFromFile` reads
-  the loop region a file declares as the default.
-- `AudioCoreHost` + `onAudioUnderrun` - the off-main-thread audio host: a synthesis core in
-  a worker behind the same `Playable` facade, with a main-thread fallback and an underrun
-  signal feeding bounded telemetry.
-- `encodeWav`/`decodeWav`/`wavInfo` and `spectralDistance` - WAVE as plain bytes (the
-  `mwg-audio` tool's convert and compare verbs over the same code), and a spectral distance
-  between two renders for a listening check that can be automated.
-- `parseVorbisLoopTags`/`loopRegionFromTags` - read the `LOOPSTART`/`LOOPLENGTH` comments an
-  Ogg Vorbis file carries (a bounded walk of the first pages, null on anything malformed) and
-  turn them into the seconds-based `LoopRegion` a `Channel` or the bus loader hands back.
-- `humanizeMidi`/`HumanizerFactory`/`HumanizeRequest`/`MidiHumanizerEngine` - the entry point
-  for a performance that sounds played rather than played back. `humanizeMidi(file, options)`
-  resolves the tier from the request (a `GrooveTemplate` in it means the groove tier, anything
-  else the lite one) and returns a new file; `HumanizerFactory.create(tier)` is for holding one
-  engine across several files. The pass never mutates its input: `intensity: 0` reproduces the
-  file exactly, a `seed` reproduces a run, note durations and every tempo, program, controller
-  and meta event survive, events come back sorted by tick with ties in file order, and nothing
-  lands before tick 0 (a shift that would cross it stops there instead). `create('magenta')`
-  throws naming what is missing rather than loading: `@magenta/music` and a PerformanceRNN
-  checkpoint cannot be fetched from a `file://` build.
-- `LiteHumanizer`/`GrooveHumanizer`/`HumanizationOptions`/`HumanizeStyle`/`HumanizerTier` - the
-  two shipped engines and their options. Tier 1 moves timing and velocity by gaussian noise
-  over a seeded gradient drift, scaled by `intensity` and by `style` (jazz wide, classical
-  tight), and holds the kick and the lowest notes to a few milliseconds of their slot; tier 2
-  applies a template's per-slot offsets and velocities instead, converted through the file's
-  own tempo map when the template was recorded at another tempo (which says so through
-  `onWarn` rather than staying quiet), plus contextual rules - an accent on a local melody
-  peak, restraint on the beat. `initialize()` is idempotent on both.
-- `subdivisionCount`/`assertGrooveTemplate`/`GrooveTemplate`/`GridSubdivision`/`GrooveOffset` -
-  the units everything else is measured in: how many slots a bar of a signature holds at a
-  grid (`subdivisionCount([4, 4], '16n')` is 16, `[6, 8]` at `8n` is 6, and a grid that does
-  not tile the bar throws), and the validator for a template's invariants - dense offsets in
-  subdivision order, whole ticks, a power-of-two denominator, a velocity factor between 0 and
-  1 - run when one is built and when one is imported.
-- `GrooveExtractor` - a reusable template out of three kinds of evidence, each reduced to the
-  same thing: the median of each slot's deviations, so one flubbed note cannot drag it and a
-  slot nobody played stays on the grid. Mode A matches a played pass against a straight one,
-  note-on to nearest note-on of the same channel and pitch within half a slot; mode B projects
-  a single file onto its own implied grid, which is exactly the residual a quantization would
-  discard; mode C takes an `AudioBuffer`, detecting attacks by spectral flux (hand-rolled FFT,
-  no analysis dependency) and taking the tempo as an argument because timing means nothing
-  without one, with velocity left at the neutral 1 since a recording carries none.
-- `GrooveConverter` - a template to and from the two formats that can carry one. JSON is
-  exact; the MIDI encoding is one note per slot behind an anchor a subdivision ahead, with
-  velocity at 1/64 per unit of `velocityFactor`, so the writer enforces `|offset|` below the
-  slot and a factor of 1/64 to 127/64 instead of rounding past them, and the file gets its own
-  reader because the round trip needs the tempo, time-signature and name metas that `parseMidi`
-  deliberately drops. `GrooveFormat` also names `ableton-agr` and `reaper-groove`, both of
-  which throw saying they are not shipped rather than returning a file that resembles one.
-
-## `battle`
-
-The Pokémon-shaped half of the capability spec: species/stats/party/type-matrix/turn-order.
-No move, formula, or number belongs here - only the shape.
-
-- `Creature`/`Species` - wraps `actors.StatBlock`/`Progression`, not a separate stat system.
-- `TypeMatrix` - attack-type effectiveness lookup.
-- `Party` - a roster of creatures.
-- `battleOrder`/`Move`/`BattleAction` - one round's priority-then-speed turn order.
-- `checkEvolution`/`EvolutionRule` - level/condition-based species evolution.
-- `StatStages` - a bounded, symmetric stage ladder over a stat (±`max`), replacing rather
-  than stacking the modifier for a stat's current stage.
-- `chooseMove`/`chooseSwitch` - battle AI built on `TypeMatrix`.
-- `BattleHooks`/`BattleHook` - `core.HookRegistry` with battle's argument shape: a handler
-  receives the creature plus a shared mutable `context`, for passive effects, abilities and
-  turn-skipping statuses.
-- `Field`/`FieldCondition` - field-wide conditions: weather, terrain, screens; named,
-  optionally timed, ticked down by `advance(rounds)`.
-- `AttackPreview`/`AttackPreviewOptions`/`AttackFrame`/`PreviewCombatant` - the damage totals and
-  one-frame-per-strike timeline an attack dialog prints and animates, from damage the game's own
-  formula produced (`totalDamage`, chance-weighted `expectedDamage`, `hits` for a rolled outcome,
-  `sampleAt` on the animation clock). It computes no damage itself.
-- `AttackDialog`/`AttackDialogOptions`/`StrikeNumbers` - the dialog's whole renderer-free state: a
-  `UnitSelector` to choose the pair, the `AttackPreview` built from a game-supplied `damageFor`, and
-  the `update(dt)`/`finished` clock that drives the animation.
-- `UnitSelector`/`UnitSelectorOptions`/`SelectableUnit`/`SelectorStage` - the two-step attack
-  selector: enabled units on the selecting side as candidates, then the enemies `canTarget` allows
-  as targets; `back` undoes the attacker choice.
-- `Whiteboard`/`WhiteboardEntry` - planned turn orders with one plan per unit, `undo`/`redo` (a new
-  plan clears the redo stack) and `commit` handing the plans back.
-- `BattleStats`/`BattleStatCategory` (item 273) - a per-run breakdown by category (`recruits`,
-  `recalls`, `advances`, `kills`, `deaths`, `damageDealt`, `damageTaken`) and unit type, the shape
-  `core.PlayerStats`'s opaque `T` cannot give a game for free; `record` adds to one unit type's
-  count, `total`/`breakdown` read a category back summed or per type, and `toJSON` folds into a
-  `core.RunHistory` entry or `core.PlayerStats` total like any other run summary.
-
-## `board`
-
-Board/card/dice games and generic tactics - traditional public-domain rules, no formula
-borrowed from any licensed game.
-
-- **chess** (`chess.ts`): `startingChess`/`parseFen`/`positionKey`/`cloneChess`/`legalMoves`/
-  `applyMove`/`inCheck`/`gameResult`/`sq`/`squareName` - full rules: legality, check/mate/
-  stalemate, castling, en passant, promotion, FEN in both directions (positions keyed
-  without clocks).
-- **engine** (`Engine.ts`): `chessGame`/`chooseMove`/`search` - the chess rules adapter and
-  convenience wrapper over the shared `ai.alphaBetaSearch`, with material evaluation and
-  depth/node limits. `searchAsync` scores each root move on a worker thread and combines
-  the scores first-wins, so a depth-3 search stops dropping frames; inside the node
-  budget it chooses exactly the move `search` would. The minigame path keeps this small search and never pays for the tournament module below. `searchAsync` combines root-move scores first-wins.
-
-- **bitboards** (`bitboard.ts`): the same rules on twelve 64-bit boards
-  (`startingBitboard`, `bitboardFromChess`, `bitboardMoves`, `makeMove`/`unmakeMove`,
-  `perft`), the mutable board the tournament engine searches. `bitboardFromChess`
-  bridges from a `chess.ts` position; the differential tests keep both rule sets in
-  agreement.
-- **openings** (`openings.ts`): `probeBook` looks a position up in a compiled opening
-  book (ECO, name where a known line ends, UCI continuations), `parseUciMove` reads a
-  UCI move back. The book is a game-side artifact built by `tools/compile-openings`
-  from vendored CC0 tables, so no table ships with the framework.
-- **tourney** (`tourney.ts`): `searchTourney`/`searchTourneyAsync` over one
-  self-contained `tourneyThink` task, so the worker side cannot diverge from the
-  main-thread side: negamax alpha-beta with principal variation search, null-move
-  pruning, late-move reductions, iterative deepening with aspiration windows, a bounded
-  Zobrist transposition table, quiescence over captures and promotions, hash/MVV-LVA/
-  killer/history ordering, and classical material plus in-house piece-square evaluation.
-  Positions are plain bitboard data and structured-clone straight into workers.
-  `TourneyResult.rootScores` is populated by an async search with legal root moves and
-  scores from the mover's view, in root order, for near-best selection without a
-  second search. The
-  chess example plays its reply through `searchTourneyAsync`, with a thinking indicator,
-  a per-move time cap, side and depth choice, a promotion picker and an in-check
-  highlight.
-- **tablebase** (`tablebase.ts`): `probeTablebase`/`loadTablebaseEnding`/`tablebaseId`
-  plus the `huffEncode`/`huffDecode` codec - WDL outcomes with distance-to-mate for
-  pawnless white-extras-against-lone-king endings, fifty-move-adjudicated against an
-  explicit halfmove clock, generated and verified by `tools/build-tablebases` and
-  shipped compiled under `data/tablebases` (3-piece; 4-piece stays a tool run away,
-  full 4-piece tables are tens of megabytes each).
-- **classics** (`Classics.ts`): `BoardGrid`; checkers
-  (`startingCheckers`/`checkersMoves`/`applyCheckersMove`, forced multi-jump captures); go
-  (`startingGo`/`playGo`/`passGo`/`goResult`/`goScore`, ko and area scoring); backgammon
-  (`startingBackgammon`/`rollBackgammonDice`/`backgammonMoves`/`applyBackgammonMove`, bar
-  and bearing off); cards (`createDeck`/`shuffleDeck`/`deal`/`trickWinner`); solitaire
-  (`dealSolitaire`/`drawSolitaire`/`moveSolitaireTableau`/`moveSolitaireToFoundation`/
-  `solitaireWon`, seeded Klondike); dice (`rollDice`/`rollExpression`/`DiceCup`/`scoreDice`,
-  Yahtzee-shaped keep-and-reroll scoring).
-- **tactics** (`Tactics.ts`): `startingTactics`/`addTacticalUnit`/`canPlaceTacticalUnit`/
-  `tacticalMoves`/`moveTacticalUnit`/`setTacticalOverwatch`/`triggerTacticalOverwatch`/
-  `tacticalAttack`/`endTacticalTurn` - squad tactics: action points, cover, overwatch, and
-  zone of control baked into `tacticalMoves`/move cost.
-- `FactionFog`/`VisionCell` - fog of war as a per-faction union of every controlled unit's
-  own vision, with explored memory retained. `share` puts factions on one map, sight and memory
-  alike, which is Wesnoth's `share_vision`; nothing shares until asked. `sees` hands a side's sight
-  out as a predicate for anything that asks what it can see.
-- **army** (`Army.ts`): `startingArmy`/`recruit`/`recall`/`bankUnit`/`armyIncome`/
-  `applyUpkeep` - recruiting/recalling units against a currency total, per-turn income and
-  upkeep, no specific rate baked in.
-- **hex skirmish** (`HexSkirmish.ts`): `startingSkirmish`/`setSkirmishTerrain`/
-  `canPlaceSkirmishUnit`/`addSkirmishUnit`/`skirmishMoves`/`moveSkirmishUnit`/
-  `skirmishAttack`/`skirmishIncome`/`endSkirmishTurn` - a Wesnoth-style hex army-game rules
-  layer distinct from `tactics` above: per-terrain movement cost and defence, adjacency-only
-  attacks where a surviving defender always strikes back, capturable villages that grant
-  income and heal whoever owns them, no zone of control.
-- `BoardPiece` (type, from `Classics.ts`) - a generic owned/countable/capturable/promotable
-  token distinct from `roguelike`'s `Creature`-shaped actors; every game above builds on it.
-
-## `actors`
-
-Stat blocks, equipment, inventory, and the numbers layer nearly every other module builds
-on. This is the *shape* - a game names its own attributes and formulas.
-
-- `StatBlock`/`Modifier`/`DerivedStat` - base attributes plus derived stats, combined
-  through ordered modifiers (add → multiply → set). `toJSON` saves base values only:
-  modifiers are reapplied on load by whatever owns them (equipment, status effects, auras),
-  so saving them too would double every bonus.
-- `composeModifiers` - the same canonical modifier composition as `StatBlock`, available to
-  adapters that resolve declarative effect lists without creating a stat block.
-- `Progression`/`powerCurve` - levelling from experience against a growth curve; `toJSON`
-  saves level and experience, the curve being a definition.
-- `skillCheck` - value-plus-modifiers against a difficulty, one dice roll.
-- `SkillPoints` - a spendable ledger that raises a stat's base rank, with per-stat caps and
-  a rising cost per rank. `toJSON` saves only unspent points; the ranks bought are already
-  in the `StatBlock`'s own base values.
-- `EquipmentSlots`/`EquippableItem`/`SavedEquipment` - equip/unequip applies or removes an
-  item's modifiers immediately; an optional `locked` predicate refuses unequip/swap for
-  cursed/quest gear. `toJSON(identify)` records slot-to-id, and `fromJSON` re-equips so every
-  modifier lands back on the `StatBlock`; a locked item is restored still worn.
-- `Inventory`/`InventoryItem`/`ItemDefinition`/`SavedInventory` - stacking (by id, and by
-  `instanceId` when either item sets one), weight, capacity, containers holding their own
-  `Inventory`. `toJSON` saves per-item instance state (level, wear, affix, identified,
-  `instanceId`) while `fromJSON(defs, data)` takes kind-level fields from the game's item
-  table, so a rebalanced weight reaches an old save.
-- `craft`/`Recipe`/`Ingredient` - resolves a recipe against an `Inventory`: all-or-nothing, with a
-  capacity-rollback path if the result doesn't fit. An ingredient may match an exact `id` (or a
-  list of them), a `category` on the item's definition ("any herb"), or a `matches` predicate; the
-  allocation is made against a working copy so two flexible ingredients cannot count one stack
-  twice. `InventoryItem.category`/`ItemDefinition` carry the kind-level grouping (supplied by the
-  game on load, like `stackable` and `weight`).
-- `applyStatusEffect`/`EffectClock`/`StatusEffectHandle` - a `StatBlock` modifier tied to a
-  `TurnClock`'s automatic expiry; `cancel()` for early removal.
-- `identify`/`enchant`/`damageItem`/`repairItem` - identification; enchant/upgrade level
-  (`enchant`'s `affixPolicy: 'keep' | 'remove'` decides whether an upgrade strips an
-  affix); durability wear and repair, opt-in per item.
-- `applyItemStatusEffect` - a status effect sourced from an item rather than a spell.
-- `Charges`/`ChargesOptions` - a resource regenerating in banked-turn chunks via
-  `advance(turns)`; `refund()` restores charges directly (a kill or crit), outside that path.
-  `toJSON` saves the count *and* the progress banked towards the next, so reloading cannot
-  shorten a recharge.
-- `rollLoot`/`LootEntry`/`LootTable` - rolls whether anything drops, then weight-picks
-  which, the same "roll whether, then which" shape `world.rollEncounter` shares.
-- `Advancement` - level-gated tiers granting ledger points, with mutually-exclusive
-  branch/capstone choices.
-- `rollAffix`/`affixOf`/`applyAffix`/`removeAffix`/`copyAffix`/`matchesContext` - named
-  item affixes: weight-picked, applied/removed on `InventoryItem.affix`, copied between
-  item instances, and matched against a fired trigger's attack `kind` via `AffixDef.kinds`.
-- `scaledModifiers`/`LevelScale` - level-scaled gear: `{stat, op, base, perLevel}` resolved
-  to a plain `Modifier`.
-- `assignAppearances`/`Appearances` - per-run appearance shuffling for unidentified items,
-  seeded and fixed for the run.
-- `buy`/`sell`/`Price`/`ShopOptions` - a currency-`StatBlock` transaction against an
-  `Inventory`, all-or-nothing with rollback.
-- `canAfford`/`spend`/`refund`/`convertToCharges`/`ResourceCost` - a spendable `StatBlock`
-  pool (mana, stamina): check, all-or-nothing spend, mirror-image refund (optionally
-  fractional), or convert a spent amount into `Charges` at a rate.
-- `Barrier`/`BarrierLayer` - a layered shield/absorption pool; the most recently added
-  layer drains first, with optional independent per-layer decay ticked by `advance(turns)`.
-- `assignTraits`/`TraitDef`/`AssignedTrait` - per-instance random traits drawn from a
-  shared pool at creation, applied as permanent modifiers.
-- `AuraField`/`AuraDef`/`AuraParticipant` - continuously reapplies a carrier's modifiers to
-  whoever is currently adjacent, diffing rather than reapplying every tick.
-- `SupportLedger` - a pair-order-independent, thresholded bond/support relationship between
-  two units, growing through proximity or shared battles; `toJSON`/`fromJSON` round-trip it.
-- `buildEntity`/`buildEntities`/`EntityTemplateRow`/`EntityTemplateCatalog`/`BuiltEntity` - one
-  row of a hero or monster file (typically a `core.parseCSV` result) into a fully wired
-  entity: a `StatBlock` of base stats (every non-reserved column), an optional `Progression`
-  against a named growth curve, a starting item carrying a named starting affix, and a
-  `ReactionTable` already holding a low-HP rule if the row names a threshold. What each named
-  growth curve/affix/item actually is stays the game's own `EntityTemplateCatalog`.
-- `toEntitySaveState`/`fromEntitySaveState`/`EntitySaveState` - a `BuiltEntity`'s mutable state
-  (base stat values, level/experience, the carried item) in the same "definitions supplied
-  fresh on load" shape `StatBlock`/`Progression` already draw. `fromEntitySaveState` rebuilds
-  via `buildEntity` from the same row and catalog, then overlays the saved state on top.
-
-## `roguelike`
-
-FOV, pathfinding, the energy scheduler, level generation, and combat-adjacent primitives -
-the dungeon-crawl half of the capability spec.
-
-- `Level`/`WALL`/`FLOOR`/`rectCenter`/`rectsOverlap` - the tile grid: terrain kinds,
-  passability/transparency, square or hex `shape`.
-- `generateDungeon`/`findFreeCell`/`furthestRoom`/`DUNGEON_KINDS` - procedural dungeon
-  generation.
-- `generateDungeonGraph` - the same pipeline as `generateDungeon`, also returning the room
-  graph (corridor edges, backbone then extra loops) and a rejected-placement retry count;
-  `DungeonOptions.hooks` fires `onRoomPlaced`/`onCorridorCarved` as the pipeline runs, the
-  seam a regional generator hangs hand-placed rooms, branches, wells, plants, statues,
-  chasms, doors and traps from.
-- `generateCave` (item 407) - the cave counterpart: chambers grown as random blobs
-  (`jagged` the chance a growth step wanders), passages as biased random walks
-  (`windiness`, `width`, `chance`), starts on chamber centres with cleared rings,
-  `villageDensity` returning picked clear cells as data, and a forced join so a cave is
-  always connected whatever the rolls did. Seeded through the `Random` stack like the
-  dungeon.
-- `generateOverworld` (item 410) - a whole realm as plain tile data: seeded elevation and
-  moisture fields classify water, plains, forest, hills, mountains, desert and swamp behind
-  a `seaLevel` knob; rivers run downhill to the sea, merging when they meet, drowning a
-  lake at a ridge instead of crossing it; settlements place themselves by suitability
-  (buildable ground, water within reach, spaced apart) and join into a road tree that
-  prefers flat ground, water a ford rather than a wall; points of interest carry a
-  `leadsTo` id for `Overworld` locations, and every cell carries a coarse region id for
-  encounter tables. The realm invents itself from the seed: no reference game's map data.
-- `shape: 'hex'` on `generateDungeon`, `generateDungeonGraph`, `generateCave` and
-  `generateOverworld` lays the same generator out on a hex grid (odd-q offsets, the `Level`
-  convention): the dungeon and cave `Level` carry the hex shape, a dungeon corridor leg runs
-  as a hex line, a cave grows its chambers by hex distance and walks passages toward their
-  target in true on-screen distance, and the overworld samples its noise where each hex is
-  drawn and steps rivers and roads across the six edges. The default stays square, byte for
-  byte. `generateCave` also takes `random` (a `RandomSource`, such as a `Generator`) in place
-  of `seed`: it draws from, and advances, that stream, leaving the ambient `Random` stack
-  untouched.
-- `RoomBuilder`/`hallBuilder`/`eligibleBuilders`/`pickBuilder` - composable room interiors:
-  the generator places and joins rooms, a builder carves each one, picked by weight among
-  those whose size constraints fit. `DungeonOptions.builders` wires them in; a room no
-  builder fits falls back to a plain hall rather than staying solid rock.
-- `FeatureLayer` - a floor feature/event layer: named kinds with `inspect`/`interact`/
-  `consequence`/`persistent` rules attached to generated cells; definitions supplied fresh
-  on load, only cell-to-kind pairs are save data.
-- `rollRoster` - a variant-spawn/content-roll API: weighted regular entries, rare additions,
-  per-entry alternative swaps, and a shuffle, in that order; every roll (including an
-  explicitly disabled rare entry's non-roll) is traced for parity tests.
-- `candidateCells`/`cellsNear`/`selectDistinctCells` - deterministic content placement over a
-  `Level`: `candidateCells` filters by terrain kind, occupancy and an optional region;
-  `cellsNear` walks outward by radius for a cluster anchor; `selectDistinctCells` shuffles and
-  slices a de-duplicated pool, bounded to however many candidates exist rather than throwing.
-  Composes for neighbouring-item clusters, scattered decorations, and single room/branch
-  rewards; nothing is placed until the caller commits, and the returned trace is plain
-  JSON-safe data for `DungeonArtifacts.content` or a save file.
-- `compareDungeonArtifacts`/`checkDeterminism` - a dungeon parity/test harness: diffs a
-  seeded run's room graph, retries, terrain, features and content rolls against a reference
-  or golden fixture, tagging every mismatch `'graph'` or `'paint'`; `checkDeterminism` repeats
-  a generation call and confirms every run matches the first.
-- `FieldOfView`/`HeightSight` - shadowcast (square) or straight-line (hex) visibility, with
-  `Elevation`-aware asymmetric cliff sight.
-- `Elevation` - whole-level height per cell, read by `FieldOfView`/`Pathfinder`.
-- `Pathfinder`/`neighbourOffsets` - A*(square)/Dijkstra(hex or elevation-aware) pathing,
-  `distanceMap`/`descend`/`autoExplore`, an optional climb limit.
-- `Scheduler`/`Actor`/`SchedulerSnapshot` - energy-cost turn order, the sole authority on
-  logical time; fractional costs, `postpone` (delaying an actor other than the current one),
-  and `toJSON`/`restore` for a deterministic snapshot keyed by a caller-supplied actor id.
-- `decideMonsterAI`/`AIState`/`AIDecision`/`Disposition` - wander/hunt/flee built on
-  `FieldOfView`/`Pathfinder`/`Scheduler`; peaceful/neutral/hostile disposition, provoked
-  override.
-- `Secrets` - disguised terrain (secret doors, hidden traps) that passes every
-  passable/transparent check as its disguise until revealed.
-- `Doors` - open/closed/locked door state; locking is independent of open/closed.
-- `chebyshevDistance`/`traceLine`/`ballistica`/`hasLineOfSight`/`canTarget`/`resolveArea` -
-  targeting and collision paths: range/line-of-sight checks, configurable stopping cells,
-  and single/line/burst/cone area resolution.
-- `TargetingController` - the input-facing half of targeting: a cursor moved by keyboard
-  (`move`) or by a caller-resolved pointer cell (`moveTo`), range and line-of-sight
-  validation with an optional game `validate` hook, a `preview` of the shape's cells, and a
-  `confirm`/`cancel` result. It returns cells only; the game keeps legality details, damage
-  and drawing.
-- `coneCells`/`chainTargets`/`knockbackPath` - a widening cone spray, a greedy nearest-hop
-  chain, and a shove's path until the first impassable cell.
-- `coneSector`/`ConeSectorOptions` - a circular sector aimed at an angle: rays cast every 0.5
-  degrees across an arc of `degrees`, each clamped to `range` and stopped by the first wall, so a
-  wall shadows what is behind it while the rest of the cone reaches. Unlike `coneCells`, the aim
-  is not snapped to one of the eight directions.
-- `resolveAreaOnLevel`/`hexConeCells` - topology-aware area resolution and widening hex cones,
-  complementing the square-grid targeting helpers.
-- `rangeMultiplier`/`areaFalloffMultiplier`/`RangeBand` - a range-band damage multiplier
-  lookup, and a per-target falloff multiplier for an area effect hitting several targets.
-- `BossPhases`/`AbilityCycle` - an HP-fraction phase ladder whose `check(hpFraction)` reports
-  newly entered phases, and a named-cooldown ability rotation (`ready`/`use`/`advance`).
-- `CombatHooks`/`CombatEvent`/`DamageContext` - `core.HookRegistry` with combat's argument
-  shape (one mutable `DamageContext`), plus `modifyDamage`'s pre-damage seam.
-- `Stealth`/`StealthOptions` - sticky, one-way detection: `checkDetection` returns true
-  only on the call that first brings an observer within radius.
-- `TriggerTracker` - a streak counter (combo, kill-streak) that extends within a turn
-  window and restarts once the window lapses.
-- `MultiStageAbility`/`AbilityStage` - an ability that unfolds through named, turn-timed
-  stages (windup/active/recovery) once started.
-- `Minimap`/`minimapCellCenter` - exploration minimap rendering and overlay coordinates for
-  square and odd-q hex maps.
-- `MultiTurnBeam` - a deterministic one-front-per-turn beam. The default shape is a straight line;
-  `fronts` opts into a per-turn front resolver (cone, burst, fork, moving front), `blocker` is the
-  explicit terrain/`none`/custom policy with `isBlocked` as an extra game rule, `onCell` sees every
-  reached cell, and a save carries the shape name so a reload resumes the same one. Live target
-  lookup, game-owned damage application, cancellation and save/restore as before.
-- `BeamBlocker`/`BeamStep`/`MultiTurnBeamSave` - the blocker policy, one turn's reached cells and
-  damage, and the serialisable front list with its shape identity.
-
-## `rpg`
-
-Tiled map/event data, the map-event interpreter, switches/variables, and grid movement -
-the classic top-down RPG half.
-
-- `automap`/`AutomapRule`/`AutomapTarget`/`AUTOMAP_EMPTY` - Tiled-style automapping:
-  `input`/`output` pattern rules applied in order, each rule's matches collected before any
-  write. Takes any grid exposing `getTile`/`setTile` (a `TileMap` satisfies it structurally),
-  so automapping needs no renderer.
-- `GameState` - switches and variables.
-- `activePage`/`conditionHolds`/`EventPage`/`MapEvent` - last-matching-page resolution for
-  a map event, re-checked rather than cached.
-- `EventRunner`/`EventCommand`/`DialoguePresenter`/`DialogueRequest`/`EventChoice` - a
-  `StageScript`-shaped command interpreter for map events. Dialogue goes through an injected
-  `present` function rather than a widget, so the interpreter is renderer-free and a game can
-  drive it from a 3D scene, a DOM overlay, or a test asserting on script order.
-  `two-d/ui.messageBoxPresenter` is the ready-made 2D implementation. `DialogueRequest.portrait`
-  is an opaque, renderer-specific value (`Texture2D` for `messageBoxPresenter`), kept untyped
-  here so `rpg` stays renderer-free. `EventRunner.runStory`/`EventStoryScript` follow a named-
-  passage graph the same way `StageScript.runStory`/`StoryScript` do - a `goto` command, or a
-  choice's own `goto`, jumps to a different passage; a plain `run()` refuses a stray `goto`
-  rather than silently ignoring it, the same guard `StageScript.run` applies.
-  `EventRunnerOptions.onUnknownCommand` hears every command the runner has no handler for (and a
-  `goto` in a straight `run()`, which then ends the list instead of throwing), so a game converting
-  foreign event data can make every dropped command loud.
-- `importTwee`/`EventTwineStory` - imports Twee-notation Twine stories into `EventStoryScript`,
-  a thin wrapper around `core.parseTwee` (the same engine `two-d/stage.importTwee` wraps for
-  `StageCommand`/`StoryScript` instead) naming the `EventStoryScript` return type, so a
-  text-only RPG can import a branching Twee story without depending on `two-d` for anything.
-- `GridMover`/`Direction4` - tweened tile-to-tile movement plus a walk-cycle hook.
-  `GridMover.jumpBy` repositions instantly, with no tween or walk animation, for a move-route
-  "jump" step.
-- `MoveRouteRunner`/`MoveRoute`/`MoveRouteStep`/`MoveRouteOptions` - drives any `GridMover`
-  (the player's or an NPC's) through a scripted route over successive `update(dt)` calls:
-  fixed/random/toward/away directional steps, a turn-in-place step, a jump step, and a wait
-  step, with `repeat` and `skippable` policies. Whether a step is passable is asked through the
-  same `canMove` contract `GridMover` itself expects of its own caller.
-- `FreeMover` - continuous (non-grid) position and facing, for action-game movement.
-- `MovableSprite` - what both movers actually require: `x`/`y`, and optionally `update`/`has`/
-  `play`. A static sprite, a 3D mesh wrapper or a plain test record all satisfy it.
-- `aabbOverlap`/`circleOverlap`/`circleAabbOverlap`/`resolveAabbAgainstTiles` - 2D
-  collision: shape overlap tests, and an axis-separated sweep against solid tiles.
-- `QuestLog`/`QuestStage`/`QuestDefinition`/`QuestMarker` - quest stages advanced one at a
-  time by `advanceStage`, prerequisites, `markerFor` deriving `'offer'`/`'turnIn'`/`'none'`,
-  and a tracked-quest pointer/location.
-- `questsFromRows`/`QuestStageRow` - groups a flat table of stage rows (typically a
-  `core.parseCSV` result, one row per stage sharing a `questId`) into `QuestDefinition`s a
-  `QuestLog` can `define`.
-- `decodeMarshal`/`encodeMarshal`/`RubySymbol` - Ruby `Marshal` 4.8 binary serialization
-  (the container format RPG Maker's own `.rxdata` saves use).
-- `hashDefaultOf`/`withHashDefault` - reads and attaches a Ruby hash's default value, which
-  `Marshal` carries alongside the entries rather than as one of them.
-- `parseDialogueText`/`extractDialogueCatalog` - the terse `@id text`/`-`-alternation dialogue
-  format targeting `EventCommand`, a thin wrapper around `core.parseDialogueLines` (the same
-  engine `two-d/stage.parseDialogueText` wraps for `StageCommand` instead), so a text-only
-  RPG (`core` plus `rpg`, no renderer at all) can author dialogue without depending on
-  `two-d` for anything. `extractDialogueCatalog` builds an identity `i18n` catalog from the
-  result, the same shape MWL's own `extractCatalog` builds from `_("...")`-marked strings.
-
-## `simulation`
-
-`TrainingEnvironment` adapts game-owned `TrainingRules` around the existing
-`SimulationRule`, with no renderer, DOM, audio or animation loop. `reset(seed)`
-returns a `TrainingFrame` with per-agent observations, rewards, `terminated` and
-`truncated`. `step(actions)` takes one action index per agent (or `null` only for
-an all-masked idle agent), invokes the same rule used during play and returns the
-next frame. Rewards inspect a cloned pre-transition state, so mutable rules work.
-The agent roster stays fixed within an episode. `maxSteps` is required and capped
-at one million; reaching it truncates an unfinished episode, while rule completion
-terminates it. Real-time games advance fixed simulation ticks inside their rules;
-turn-based games advance turns. Neither waits for wall-clock time. A throwing
-rule can mutate its state, as with `runScenario`; reset or restore before continuing.
-
-`snapshot()`/`restore()` use `TrainingSnapshot`: versioned environment state, schema,
-step limit, completion flags, seed and RNG state. `TrainingCheckpoint<State, TrainerState>`
-combines that snapshot with the `NeuralModel` and game-owned optimizer/exploration
-state. Persist every random stream the trainer uses in `trainerState`. Train with
-the same observation schema and action ordering used by the playable game.
-
-`runRollouts(environment, model, RolloutOptions)` chooses actions from each new
-observation until completion. Options provide episode seeds, optional seeded
-softmax sampling and `trajectoryLimit` (first transitions per episode, zero by
-default). `RolloutEpisode` reports steps, cumulative per-agent rewards, completion
-flags and a bounded array of `TrainingTransition`s. No command journal or presentation
-events are retained. Batches accept at most 10000 episodes and 10000 stored transitions.
-
-`runRolloutsAsync(TrainingFactory, config, model, options)` shards episodes across
-workers (default four, configurable `jobs` in 1..64). Each worker keeps its model,
-environment and inference buffers for the whole shard. Results stay in seed order;
-`signal` and per-worker `timeout` terminate work, and any failure terminates sibling
-workers. The factory must be self-contained, like `threads.spawn`, accepting the
-supplied `TrainingEnvironment` constructor and structured-cloneable configuration;
-it cannot close over module imports. Both paths run the same classes and inference
-code, including in a compiled `file://` page. Training algorithms and rewards are
-game-owned; `tools/train-neural.ts` shows a seeded evolution optimizer, resumable
-checkpoint and model export, and `examples/neural` loads its trained weights.
-
-`imitationFromReplay(environment, { actions, events, seed })` turns a persisted run
-(roadmap 397) into imitation targets: it walks the recorded actions against the
-same seeded environment they were played on and returns the `(observation, action)`
-samples a game's own trainer fits, sourced from how its players played rather than a
-generated expert. One recorded event is one environment step; the environment must
-expose exactly one agent (the recorded player - anything else that moves is part of
-the rule, like the maze chase's ghosts); a recorded action outside the list is a
-named error, never a silently skipped event.
-
-`runSeededEpisode(environment, choose, { seed })` plays one whole run with the AI
-choosing, from a named seed: the same seed and the same deterministic `choose` make
-the same decisions, so runs compare across builds, policies and machines. Unlike
-`runRollouts` the chooser is not a `NeuralModel` - a heuristic, a `NeuralPolicy`'s
-argmax, or any named function works - and the result records every chosen action and
-the cumulative rewards, with the environment's `maxSteps` as the truncation bound.
-
-Headless, deterministic turn/scenario running - for testing and benchmarking without a
-live game loop.
-
-- `advanceToInput`/`ScheduledTurns`/`TurnRules`/`TurnResult` - drives turns forward under a
-  rule set until the next input is due.
-- `runScenario`/`Scenario`/`ScenarioResult` - a bounded, scripted simulation run against a
-  set of expectations.
-- `Campaign`/`CampaignLevel`/`CampaignLevelResult`/`CampaignSnapshot` - generic level order,
-  result, carry-over, reminder and transition state, with JSON-safe save/restore.
-- `runHeadlessScenario`/`HeadlessScenario`/`HeadlessScenarioResult` - seeded, renderer-free
-  scenario execution returning the final state, ordered events and resumable random state.
-- `SimulationRuntime`/`SimulationContext`/`SimulationOutcome`/`SimulationRuntimeRule`/
-  `SimulationSnapshot` - a facade over one state + one `roguelike.Scheduler` + one `core.
-  Generator`, for the interactive half of a turn-based simulation: `dispatch` runs a single
-  command through the game's rule, threading `random`/`scheduler` as context and charging any
-  returned cost; `snapshot`/`restore` capture and rebuild the whole triple. Commands, events and
-  (with `history`) state are journalled through `structuredClone`, so they must be plain data:
-  name an actor by id, never pass the live object. A `dispatch` that cannot copy them throws
-  with the offending path and commits nothing. Composes with
-  `advanceToInput` against the same scheduler for the automatic-actor loop, rather than
-  replacing it.
-- `EventPresentation`/`EventPresentationOptions` - the documented pattern tying a
-  `SimulationRuntime` to a `core.PresentationQueue`: `submit` commits a command and starts its
-  events, `locked` is the animation lock `submit` refuses under, `followUp` schedules a
-  secondary actor's commands for after the current batch, `cancel` drops the rest of the show
-  without rolling the committed turn back, and `snapshot`/`restore` deliberately leave the
-  queue out of a save so a load resumes idle.
-- `Scheduler`/`Actor`/`SchedulerSnapshot` - re-exported here from `roguelike` (its real home),
-  since every `SimulationRuntime` needs one; a simulation-first game need not import a second
-  module just to construct the class its own runtime is built around.
-- `CampaignSave`/`CampaignSaveState`/`CampaignSaveParts` - one `core.SaveSystem` slot for a whole
-  campaign: `save` captures the `Campaign` snapshot, the game's own world payload and the
-  `SimulationRuntime` snapshot together, `load` reads them back migrated, and `list`/`delete` are
-  `SaveSystem`'s. The world is opaque, so an `MwlWorld`, a `Level` or a game's own scenario object
-  all fit.
-
-## `skeleton`
-
-Skeletal pose math, renderer-free: a bone tree, keyframed clips and layered blending, as
-pure data and arithmetic so it loads headless and tests without a renderer. Clips are plain
-JSON-shaped data a game authors itself. `import * as Skeleton from '@datamoc/mw_games/skeleton'`.
-
-- `create(bones)` - builds a `SkeletonBones` from `Bone`s (`name`, `parent`, `length`,
-  `origin`, `rest` `rotation` in degrees, optional `limits`), throwing by name on a duplicate
-  bone, a cycle, a missing parent or inverted joint limits. `boneOrder` lists names parents
-  first.
-- `resolve(skeleton, pose?)` - walks the tree and returns one `BoneTransform` per bone (world
-  `x`/`y`, `angle`, composed scale, a 2D `matrix`, and the `tipX`/`tipY` the children start
-  from). A `Pose` is one rotation per bone name; a `TransformPose` adds per-bone translations
-  and scales.
-- `samplePose`/`sampleTransformPose(clip, time, skeleton?)` - a `Clip` (`duration`, `loop`,
-  ascending `Keyframe`s) interpolated at a time: a looping clip wraps, a one-shot holds its
-  last frame. Passing the skeleton validates the result.
-- `advancePlayback`/`createMixer`/`crossfadeTo`/`advance`/`advancePose` - a `Mixer` holds a base
-  `Playback` plus weighted, prioritised additive `Layer`s. `advance(mixer, dt)` ticks every
-  playhead, folds in a running crossfade and the layers, and returns rotations;
-  `advancePose` returns the full `TransformPose`. `mixPoses` blends rotation poses by layer
-  priority and weight.
-- `validatePose` - refuses non-finite rotations and angles outside a bone's `limits`.
-- `solveTwoBoneIK(skeleton, first, second, target, bend?, pose?)` - solves a connected
-  two-bone chain toward a world target without stretching; throws for an unreachable target
-  or a second bone with a non-zero origin.
-
-## `physics`
-
-Small deterministic simulations, renderer-free, with no third-party engine. Three entry
-points: `@datamoc/mw_games/physics` (rigid bodies, cloth, spring) and
-`@datamoc/mw_games/physics/xpbd` (a structure solver). Everything is plain arithmetic, so a
-game's headless tests run the same world.
-
-- `PhysicsWorld` - rigid circles and axis-aligned boxes (never rotating: `angle` is a display
-  offset), stepped on a `FixedStepper` so results do not depend on the display refresh rate.
-  Semi-implicit Euler, impulse contacts with restitution and friction, and distance joints.
-  `addBox`/`addCircle` return a plain `PhysicsBody` (`position`, `velocity`, `angle`, `label`,
-  `isStatic`); `connect` joins two bodies or a body and a world point
-  (`ConstraintOptions`: `stiffness`, `damping`, `length`, attachment points, and `maxStretch`
-  to make the joint breakable); `remove` takes a body or constraint; `stretchOf` reads a
-  joint's strain; `update(dt)` runs the fixed steps it covers and returns their count.
-  `onContact` and `onBreak` are `Signal`s.
-- `XpbdWorld` (`physics/xpbd`) - point masses (`addNode`, `fixed` anchors) joined by springs
-  (`addLink`: `stiffness`, `rest`, `tensionOnly` cables, `strength`/`tensionStrength`),
-  solved with extended position-based dynamics and the force in each link read back, so a link
-  breaks at a real load. Fixed steps and no randomness make a replay identical on every
-  machine. `step()` advances one frame; `applyForce` pushes a node for one step; `ground` is a
-  height or a function of x; `breaking` gates breaking so a structure can settle first;
-  `onBreak` fires per broken link and `peakRatio` is a strain gauge. It has no rigid bodies or
-  collisions, which is what `PhysicsWorld` is for.
-- `Cloth` - a pinned-point Verlet grid (top row pinned) with structural links only, no
-  allocation per step. `indexOf`/`pointPosition`/`pointLinks`/`writePositions` read it back;
-  `pinPoint`/`unpinPoint`, `setWind`/`setGravity`, `reset` and `update(dt)` drive it.
-  `two-d`'s `ClothSprite` draws one as a mesh on the GPU path.
-- `Spring` - a damped chase spring for secondary motion (hair, hems, panels): `setAnchor`
-  moves the target, `displace` shoves the bob, `offset`/`length`/`settled(tolerance)` read the
-  lag, `place(target)` positions a display object, `update(dt)` steps it. Under reduced motion
-  it follows `SpringOptions.intent` (`decorative` snaps to the anchor).
-
-## `testing`
-
-Test doubles for the seams mwg takes by injection (item 388), so a game's tests and this
-repository's own share one copy of each. Renderer-free, dependency-free, and off the root barrel:
-nothing here reaches a shipped game unless a test imports it.
-- `createSceneControls` (item 408) - named steps a game opts into (`enterScenario`,
-  `finishTurn`, `advanceDialogue` in the Wesnoth port), driven by name from a test or a
-  headless Chrome: the game decides what a step does, the controls only promise that a
-  registered name runs and an unknown one is refused by name.
-- `memoryStorage` - a `SaveStorage` held in memory, for `SaveSystem`, `Settings`, `Collection`,
-  `PlayerStats` and the other stored values; the same class `core` falls back to where
-  `localStorage` is missing.
-- `exposeForTests(name, object)` - publishes inspectable game state under
-  `window.__mwg_test__[name]` for browser tests; does nothing outside a browser.
-- `fakeAudio`/`fakeAudioWithEnded`/`FakePlayable` - a `Playable` for `Sound`/`Music`'s `create`
-  that counts its plays; the second also has the `onended` slot a backend reporting track ends
-  has.
-- `FakeAudioContext`/`FakeBuffer`/`FakeBufferSource`/`FakeGain`/`FakeBlockSource` - a fake
-  WebAudio graph for the audio tests: sources, gains and buffers a test can inspect, and a
-  block source for a `StreamChannel`, with no real `AudioContext` anywhere.
-- `FakeRetroPlayer` - a `MidiSynth` double for a retro engine: it records every message it
-  was driven with and renders a flat level while a note is on, so a renderer test reads what
-  was sent and what sounded, with `FakeAudioContext.advance()` as the clock it moves by hand.
-- `FakeSocket` - a `WebSocketLike` for `LockstepClient`'s `create`: `sent`, `receive(message)`,
-  `receiveRaw(text)`, `close()`.
-- `fakeFetch`/`FakeFetchCall` - a `fetch` for every `HttpTransport` client, answering with a
-  `Response` or a value sent as JSON, recording each call.
-- `fakeGamepad` - a `Gamepad` from button values (pressed above 0.5) and axes, for `Input` and
-  `PlayerInput`.
-
-## `threads`
-
-Runs a self-contained function on a worker thread, so a blocking computation costs a
-background thread instead of a dropped frame. mwg's own runtime rather than a dependency:
-a classic blob worker in the browser, because that is the one shape a double-clicked
-`file://` page accepts (the shipped CSP allows `worker-src blob:` and `new Function`, and
-a module worker loaded from `file://` fails CORS whatever the policy says), and
-`node:worker_threads` in Node. Off the root barrel like `testing`: a game that never
-spawns a worker pays nothing for it, and imports `@datamoc/mw_games/threads` when it
-wants one.
-
-- `openWorker(source, events)` - opens a long-lived worker from a self-contained script
-  (blob worker in a browser, `node:worker_threads` in Node, null where neither exists) and
-  returns its message link; `spawn` is the one-task use of it, a service such as the audio
-  core host keeps its worker and talks to it.
-- `spawn(fn, args?, options?)` - runs `fn` on a worker and resolves with its value. The
-  task is serialized with `Function.prototype.toString`, so it must be self-contained:
-  no closures over module scope, no imports, no bound or native functions - everything it
-  needs arrives as `args`, structured-cloned in. `options.transfer` moves listed buffers
-  instead, detaching them from the caller's thread. The result returns structured-cloned
-  with every `ArrayBuffer` inside it transferred rather than copied, since the worker is
-  finished with them. A task that throws, closes over something the worker cannot see, or
-  kills its worker without answering rejects the promise instead of hanging it;
-  `options.timeout` abandons a task that never returns, and `options.signal` (an
-  `AbortSignal`) cancels one on demand. One worker per task, terminated the moment it
-  settles. In Node an unsettled task keeps the process alive, so settle or cancel every
-  task before exit.
-
-## `headless`
-
-The blessed renderer-free entry: every module that loads in bare Node, in one import,
-with no DOM or WebGL globals. A rule imported through here is headless by construction;
-anything outside it belongs in presentation, not in the rule.
-
-- `core`/`simulation`/`mwl` - scenes, saves, RNG, headless scenarios and content tables.
-- `i18n`/`actors`/`world`/`battle` - messages, stats, maps, encounters and type matchups.
-- `roguelike`/`board`/`audio`/`rpg` - dungeon generation, board rules, sound/music
-  primitives (inject `create`, as under plain `audio`) and map events.
-- `ai`/`testing` - decision runners and the shared test doubles.
-- `assetPaths`/`assetBinary` - the two renderer-free asset halves (path resolution and
-  byte caching) beside the Pixi-backed `assets` loader.
-
-Excluded with reasons in `src/headless/index.ts`: `three-d` (needs Babylon at import),
-the Lua runtimes (`mwl/pyroeis`, `ai/lua`), and every `two-d/*` module.
-
-## `three-d` (optional)
-
-Babylon.js-backed 3D, kept fully separate from the 2D default - nothing in `core` imports
-this module.
-
-- `Engine3D` - owns Babylon's engine, scene, orbit camera, light, resize, and render loop.
-- `gridPoint3D`/`GridCell3D`/`GridShape3D` - square/hex 3D grid cell projection.
-- `createTileGrid3D` - a thin-instanced 3D tile floor (square or hex) with elevation
-  columns for nonzero cell heights.
-- `Character3D` - moves an imported mesh or a camera-facing billboard sprite through
-  continuous world coordinates; `playAnimation` plays a clip an imported model carries.
-- `parseVox`/`createVoxModel3D` - MagicaVoxel `.vox` import, batched by colour.
-- `loadModel3D`/`loadModelContainer3D`/`isModelContainerLoaded`/`releaseModelContainer`
-  (`@datamoc/mw_games/3d/models`, kept out of the main `3d` barrel so a scene that never
-  imports a model pays nothing for the loader) - glTF/GLB import. `loadModel3D` imports
-  straight into the scene, for one copy; `loadModelContainer3D` fetches and parses a source
-  once, caches the `AssetContainer`, and a game calls `instantiateModelsToScene()` on it for
-  each independent, unaliased copy it wants placed - Babylon's own answer to "load once,
-  place many" without a second network fetch.
-- `createHeightmapTerrain3D` - a continuous displaced-mesh terrain from a greyscale
-  heightmap image, alongside `createTileGrid3D`'s stepped floors.
-- `buildHeightIndex`/`cellAt`/`heightAt`/`resolveCapsuleAgainstGrid` - horizontal collision
-  for a moving capsule against `createTileGrid3D`'s stepped grid.
-
-## `world`
-
-Many maps, transitions, persistence, the turn clock, encounter tables - the connective
-tissue between scenes.
-
-- `World` - many maps, each created once and kept alive (or rebuilt fresh per entry when
-  defined `persistent: false`); `unload` frees a map's own state.
-- `Overworld`/`Location` - named-location lookup.
-- `TurnClock`/`TimedEffect` - hunger/poison-style timed effects, ticked on `advance`.
-- `rollEncounter`/`EncounterTable` - rolls whether an encounter fires, then weight-picks
-  which.
-- `EnvironmentClock`/`DayPhase`/`EnvironmentSnapshot` - a continuous day/night-phase and
-  weather clock above any one encounter, driven by `update(dt)` in real seconds, with change
-  notifications and `toJSON`/`fromJSON`.
-- `SideTurns`/`SideTurn`/`TimeOfDay`/`TimeArea`/`Alignment`/`alignmentBonus` - the reference
-  strategy game's outer turn model: sides take turns in order, a round is all of them, and the
-  time-of-day schedule steps on per round. `lawfulBonusAt` applies a unit's alignment to the
-  current time's `lawfulBonus`, and a `TimeArea` overrides the schedule for part of the map,
-  which is what makes the bonus per-hex. `toJSON`/`fromJSON` resume the exact position.
-
-## `i18n`
-
-Message tables, plurals, interpolation, and direction - pure logic, no Pixi dependency.
-
-- `Direction`/`Catalog`/`MessageValue` - the message-table shape: locale, direction,
-  messages, an optional Fluent-parsed or plain-string/plural-form value.
-- `setBase`/`setActive`/`locale`/`direction` - the active and fallback language, and the
-  direction `ui`'s `Theme.direction` reads from; `reset` clears both back to unset.
-- `t`/`tRaw`/`formatSpec`/`tokenizeMessage`/`diffPlaceholders`/`MessageParams` - resolves a key, selecting a plural form via `Intl.PluralRules` and
-  interpolating `{token}`s, including dotted paths that walk into nested params
-  (`{side.stored.hitpoints}` against `{ side: { stored: { hitpoints: 12 } } }`); falls back to the
-  base language, then to the raw key. Placeholders
-  also take Python f-string-style specs (`{dmg:03d}`, `{hp:.1%}`, `{name:>12}`), `!s`/`!r`/`!a`
-  conversions and `=` debugging, resolved through `formatSpec` (verified case by case against
-  CPython; an ill-fitting spec stays untouched rather than throwing). `tokenizeMessage` is
-  the single definition of that placeholder grammar, shared by interpolation and by
-  `diffPlaceholders`, which compares a reference string against its translation (dropped,
-  added, or reshaped tokens) for `tools/i18n-edit` to surface. `tRaw`
-  skips the display-text decoration (typographic spacing, RTL wrapping) for catalog values
-  that are not shown to the player, such as a sound path.
-- `parseSoundMarkers`/`stripSoundMarkers`/`InlineSoundCue`/`ParsedSoundText` - extracts
-  `{sound:path}` markers from translated text, returning marker-free display text and each
-  cue's visible-character offset. `MessageBox` consumes these markers during its reveal;
-  `t()` and `tRaw()` preserve them for the presentation layer.
-- `typographic` - locale-aware curly-apostrophe substitution (French/Italian/Dutch elisions);
-  for French, also a narrow no-break space before `; ! ? :` and around `« »`, and a plain
-  no-break space between a numbering word and its number ("Chapitre 3"); for German, a
-  no-break space between a number and its unit ("5 kg") and after a small set of
-  abbreviations ("Nr. 3", "Dr. Müller").
-- `nonBreakingUnit` - joins a value and a game-defined unit ("pièces d'or", "points de vie")
-  with whichever no-break space French/German typography calls for; the unit's own text is
-  always the game's vocabulary, never MWG's.
-- `has` - whether a key resolves to something real, in either language.
-- `parseFTL`/`FluentOptions` - parses Project Fluent `.ftl` message resources into the same
-  `Catalog`/`t()` surface, with variables, exact and plural variants.
-- `parsePo`/`PoOptions` - parses a gettext `.po` file into the same `Catalog`/`t()` surface:
-  `msgid`/`msgstr`, `msgctxt`, `msgid_plural` with `msgstr[N]` mapped onto the locale's CLDR
-  categories, the header entry dropped, untranslated entries left out for base fallback - which
-  includes a `#, fuzzy` one, the way gettext's own tools treat it - and a non-default gettext
-  `domain` prefixing keys.
-- `SemanticMessage`/`MessageChannel`/`MessageFormatter`/`createCatalogFormatter` - a typed
-  `{ type, params }` communication intent rendered differently per channel (log/compact/
-  accessibility/debug/audio) from the same underlying catalog: `createCatalogFormatter` looks up
-  `${type}.${channel}`, falling back to `${type}` alone, then formats through `t()`. A
-  simulation emits the message once; the channel is a presentation choice, not a rule. The
-  `audio` channel holds a sound path (played game-side through `audio`'s `Sound`), resolves
-  through `tRaw` rather than `t()`, returns `''` when no `<type>.audio` entry exists, and
-  never falls back to a bare type holding a sentence.
-- `EntityTextResolver`/`GrammaticalEntity` - type contracts a game uses while building a
-  `SemanticMessage`'s params (resolving an id to display text, or carrying gender/number/
-  proper-noun metadata for its own catalog's grammar); MWG never calls or interprets either.
-- `formatNumber`/`formatDate`/`formatList` - locale-aware `Intl.NumberFormat`/
-  `DateTimeFormat`/`ListFormat` wrappers reading the active locale from `locale()`, for a
-  message that needs more than `{token}` substitution - a game calls these while building a
-  `t()`/`SemanticMessage` param, the same way it resolves an entity id to display text.
-- `diffCatalogKeys`/`validateCatalog`/`CatalogKeyDiff`/`CatalogIssue` - catalog consistency
-  checks: `diffCatalogKeys` compares two catalogs' key sets (a base language against a
-  translation); `validateCatalog` flags empty messages and plural forms missing their
-  `other` branch within one catalog. Deliberately not a parameter schema validator - a
-  `SemanticMessage<TType, TParams>`'s own generics already give a game compile-time
-  parameter safety, which is the primary mechanism the source document calls for.
-- `validateMessageAudio`/`AudioIssue` - structural checks over `<type>.audio` sound-cue
-  entries: empty paths and non-string (plural/select) values, which would reduce silently
-  at lookup time rather than selecting per play.
-- `EditSession`/`EditRow`/`RowFilter`/`AUDIO_SUFFIX`/`createEditSession`/`sessionKeys`/
-  `sessionRow`/`sessionRows`/`setTargetText`/`copyFromBase`/`deleteTargetKey`/
-  `setTargetSound`/`cueKeyFor`/`sessionCompleteness`/`swapSession`/`isAudioKey` - the pure
-  session core behind `tools/i18n-edit`: translatable rows with reference/target text and
-  an effective cue (a channel key shares its semantic family's `<type>.audio`, one cue per
-  family), completeness ignoring cue keys, and swapping which catalog is the reference.
-  `tools/i18n-edit.mjs` is the terminal split-screen editor over it, with a `--check`
-  mode for CI.
-- `messageText`/`levenshteinDistance`/`findSimilarMessages` - content-management over a
-  catalog's actual message text rather than only its key shape: `messageText` reduces any
-  `MessageValue` to plain comparable text, `levenshteinDistance` is the classic edit-distance
-  primitive, and `findSimilarMessages` surfaces near-duplicate messages worth merging by
-  similarity threshold, most-similar first.
-- `catalogUsage`/`catalogCompleteness`/`pluralFormCoverage` - catalog statistics:
-  `catalogUsage` compares a catalog's keys against a caller-supplied referenced-keys list
-  (mwg has no view into a game's own source) for used/unused counts; `catalogCompleteness`
-  is a 0-1 translated fraction built on `diffCatalogKeys`; `pluralFormCoverage` tallies which
-  CLDR plural categories a catalog's plural-form messages actually define.
-- `mergeCatalogKeys` - drops a merged key from one catalog, keeping the surviving key's text
-  untouched; rewriting call sites that used the merged key stays the caller's own job, the
-  same boundary `catalogUsage`'s `referencedKeys` already draws.
-
-## `mwl`
-
-MWL is the build-time, game-neutral content layer. It uses a WML-inspired syntax for data
-such as units, items, maps, events, AI hooks, translations, and asset references. The runtime
-consumes generated data and does not parse `.mwl` source files in the browser.
-
-- `mwl build` - reads one file or a directory of `.mwl` files in stable path order and emits
-  `game-data.ts`, `i18n.json`, and `assets.json` in one step.
-- `mwl build --asset-root public/assets` - optionally verifies every extracted asset before
-  emitting the generated files. Missing paths include their MWL source location; without this
-  flag the build stays portable for games that resolve assets elsewhere.
-- `contentReport` / `loadContent` / `mwl report` - counts tags, lists opaque names, reports
-  resources, dependencies and unresolved references, and returns structured load diagnostics
-  for parity checks and CI.
-- `validateCatalog`/`validateCatalogNodes`/`MwlValidationOptions` - semantic checks shared by
-  every game: `MWL_DUPLICATE_ID`, `MWL_UNKNOWN_SLOT`, `MWL_INCOMPLETE_EFFECT`,
-  `MWL_INVALID_HOOK`/`MWL_UNKNOWN_HOOK`. `MWL_DUPLICATE_ID`'s `tag:id` key is scoped by
-  `rowIdScope` (item 304): `'global'` (the default) checks the whole compiled catalog, every
-  source file combined; `'file'` folds each node's own source file into the key too, for a game
-  whose id convention is meaningful only within one file and reuses ids across files on purpose
-  - a real duplicate within one file still reports.
-- `[campaign]` - declares game-owned campaign metadata (`id`, optional `name`, `title`,
-  `description`, and `start_scene`). Its children are intentionally open so a game can define
-  scenario and progression tags without changing the core MWL schema; metadata is exposed by
-  `contentCatalog(game).campaigns`.
-- `campaignChain` - points a `[campaign]` at `simulation.Campaign`: `first_scenario` opens the chain,
-  each `[scenario]`'s `next_scenario` is where it goes when it is won, and a scenario that ends the
-  chain ends the campaign. The order is content, the playing stays the game's (`run` is a callback),
-  and a scenario that decides for itself - a runtime `[endlevel]` - keeps its decision. The
-  `[campaign]` schema reads `first_scenario`, and the catalog exposes each campaign's `scenarios`.
-- `endLevelCarryover`/`carryoverIntoScenario`/`MWL_DEFAULT_CARRYOVER_PERCENTAGE` with `[endlevel]` -
-  a scenario's end as the reference models it: a share of the side's gold (80% by default), a bonus
-  on top, that side's surviving units as the recall list, and the next scenario. `result=victory`
-  ends it won, `result=defeat` lost, and the arithmetic is the same for both.
-- One side identity (item 277): the `id` a `[side]` declares (now a `string`, so a named side like
-  `id=rebels` validates) keys `world.sides` and `world.gold`, marks a map keep (`rebels Kh`), and
-  is what `unit.side`, `MwlMessage.side` and every `side`/`side_filter` filter hold. `MwlSideRef`
-  is just that id.
-- `nodesToObjects`/`MwlObject` - converts compiled nodes to JSON objects using the tag
-  schema: declared numbers and booleans become typed fields, child tags become ordered
-  arrays, and a `cardinality.max` of 1 selects a single object. Missing optional fields stay
-  absent. Check the returned diagnostics for conversion errors and field collisions.
-  Attributes not listed in `MwlTagSchema.required` are optional; use `number`, not `number?`.
-- `readAttributes` / `readChildren` - shared typed readers for compiled nodes. They coerce
-  scalars and lists and return source-located diagnostics instead of silently guessing.
-- `MwlNode.attributeLocations` / `valueLocations` - parsed JSON5 nodes retain the exact key and
-  value start for each attribute, and schema diagnostics use those locations when available.
-- `MwlValidationOptions.mapBounds` - an adapter can supply map dimensions so `validateCatalog`
-  rejects out-of-bounds integer, list, and range coordinates without embedding a map system in MWG.
-- `readTableMap` / `readTableIndex` / `tableKey` - project typed table rows into a `Map`, use
-  collision-free native composite keys, and build inverse indexes that retain every matching row.
-- A `key="""..."""` value (item 317) is the one attribute form that may span lines, and its text
-  is exactly what sits between the delimiters, so wrapped message, objective and option-label
-  text survives a conversion without the whitespace-collapsing workaround it otherwise needs. It
-  carries the `_` gettext marker like any other value; `text="""done"""` is the same form on one
-  line. (A line starting with `#` is still a comment wherever it appears, so a block cannot
-  carry one at the start of a line.)
-- MWL tables use `[table] columns=name:type|...` with typed `[row]` attributes. The compiler
-  validates column shape and values, and `contentCatalog(game).tables` exposes typed rows.
-  Supported column types match `core.parseCSV`: `string`, `number`, `boolean`, `list`, and
-  `map`, with configurable list and map delimiters. `typedRows`/`MwlTypedRow`/
-  `MwlColumnValueType` read rows through the declared columns (every field optional, an
-  absent cell omits the key), and `emitTableTypes` emits one named row interface plus one
-  typed accessor per table for a game's build script to write and import, so a changed
-  column type or a removed column fails type-checking at every use.
-  `emitTableTypes(tables, { literalColumns: ['id', 'sprite'] })` also exports sorted,
-  deduplicated readonly value lists and literal unions such as `VehiclesSprite` from the
-  current string-column values. Regenerate them with the catalog to catch stale game ids.
-- `MwlValidationOptions.tableReferences`/`MwlTableReference` (item 362) - declarative
-  cross-table checks, so no game hand-rolls one validator per table: a column declares
-  `references: { table, column }` or `oneOf: [...]`, and `validateCatalog` checks every cell
-  once for all tables, reporting `MWL_TABLE_REFERENCE` with the table, the row, and the
-  offending value. The declarations' contents stay game data; absent or empty cells are
-  skipped and a `list` cell checks each entry under the table's own delimiter.
-- `composeEffects` - resolves MWL effects through `actors.composeModifiers`, so declarative
-  item effects and actor stats use one composition rule.
-- `evaluateCondition` - evaluates bounded content conditions with comparisons, `and`/`or`/`not`,
-  arithmetic, literals, `where` bindings, and explicitly supplied pure helpers. There are no loops, assignments,
-  dynamic code loading, or implicit game rules.
-- `mwl validate` - checks syntax and content structure without generating runtime files.
-- `mwl diagnostics` / `mwl ci` - emit stable JSON diagnostics, with `ci` additionally exposing
-  a boolean `valid` result and returning a failing process status when errors exist.
-- `mwl format` / `mwl migrate --to 1.0` - expand and emit a deterministic canonical MWL document;
-  migration requires an explicit target and currently normalizes the MWL 1.0 syntax surface.
-- `mwl compile`/`mwl extract-i18n`/`mwl hooks` - lower-level commands for a generated module,
-  translation extraction, or hook manifest when a build pipeline needs separate outputs.
-- `parse`/`compile`/`validate`/`extractI18n` - the programmatic compiler surface exported from
-  `@datamoc/mw_games/mwl`; games provide their own hook implementations and interpret
-  game-specific effects.
-- The `[side]` surface Wesnoth's own data writes, and the one key of it with behaviour here (item
-  252): `team_name`, `user_team_name`, `share_vision`, `village_gold`, `heal`, `fog`, `shroud`,
-  `hidden` and `flag` are read onto `MwlWorld.sides` as written, `yes`/`no` becoming booleans.
-  `sideVisionGroups` turns `team_name` and `share_vision` into the groups `FactionFog.share` takes,
-  so a scenario's teams see together without every game re-deriving who shares with whom.
-  `leader=` names either a `[unit]` id already declared (that unit is the side's leader; nothing
-  is spawned) or a unit type (one leader per free start cell, with that type's stats); a value
-  that is neither is refused by name (item 405).
-- A `[side]`'s own `[victory]`/`[defeat]` children (item 283): a side condition that names no
-  `side`/`side_filter` reads as that side's own, its result lands in `MwlWorld.sideStatus` keyed by
-  the side id, and the aggregate `MwlWorld.status` ends the scenario as a scenario-wide condition
-  would (a side victory outranking another side's defeat when both fire at once). `[win]`/`[lose]`
-  record the side they name too.
-- Public MWL exports - `MwlRuntime`, `MwlSyntaxError`, `collectHookReferences`, `compileNodes`,
-  `compileSources`, `compileAndEmitSources`, `emitArtifacts`, `coerceTableValue`, `decodeSaveEnvelope`,
-  `parseTableColumns`, `contentCatalog`, `createWorld`, `decodeSave`, `effectToModifier`,
-  `emitHooksDeclaration`, `emitModule`, `emitTableTypes`, `encodeSave`, `evaluateExpression`,
-  `execute`,
-  `extractCatalog`, `hookTypes`, `inventoryItem`, `isGettext`, `isMwlId`, `itemDefinition`,
-  `PACKAGE_TAGS`, `PACKAGE_ASSET_KINDS`, `PACKAGE_MEDIA_KINDS`, `PACKAGE_SCRIPT_ACTIONS`,
-  `KNOWN_PACKAGE_CAPABILITIES`, `DEFAULT_PACKAGE_LIMITS`, `PackageError`, `PackageFormatError`,
-  `PackageIntegrityError`, `PackageLimitError`, `PackagePathError`, `PackageConflictError`,
-  `encodePackage`, `decodePackage`, `verifyPackage`, `loadPackage`, `mergePackage`,
-  `compilePackages`, `packageContent`, `packageRef`, `parsePackageRef`, `parsePackageDocument`,
-  `checkPackagePath`, `checkPackagePolicy`, `checkConditionSyntax`, `compareVersions`,
-  `satisfiesVersionRange`, `requestedCapabilities`, `detectRomImage`, `registerRomDigest`,
-  `generateCredits` and `sha256Hex` (self-contained `.mwp` content packages: one compressed
-  container with per-entry digests and declared limits, a capability policy the game accepts
-  or refuses, `id@version` namespaces in saves, and a ROM-image refusal with generated credits),
-  `parseExpression`, `parseHookReference`, `parseMapFile`, `parseTerrain`, `parseValue`, `preprocess`,
-  `schema01`, `typedRows`, `validateCatalogNodes`, `validateHookReferences`, `loadContent`, and `validateWorld`.
-- `parseMapFile`/`MwlMapFile` (item 284) - reads a Wesnoth-shaped `.map`: the `key=value` header
-  is split off and kept, and the comma-separated rows go through the same `parseTerrain` an inline
-  `[map] terrain=` uses, overlays (`Gg^Vh`) and `<side> <code>` starts included. Header keys are
-  not interpreted here, the same way `[terrain_graphics]` rules stay content's business.
-- `MwlHookDeclaration`/`validateHookAttributes` (item 321) - a hook may declare the attributes its
-  own `[hook]` calls carry (`attributes`, typed the way a tag schema types its own, or
-  `openAttributes`), and `validateCatalog`'s `hooks` option takes it in place of a bare
-  `type:name` id, so a typo in one of a command hook's eighteen modes is a compile-time
-  `MWL_VALUE` rather than a throw mid-scenario. The declaration is the hook's, not the tag's:
-  only `[hook]` calls are checked, where every attribute but `name` belongs to the hook. The
-  rule itself is `validAttributeValue`/`attributeTypeDescription`, exported because the tag
-  schema and a hook declaration check values the same way rather than two ways that drift.
-- `MwlDomainHook`/`MwlDomainHookRegistry` - game-declared hook namespaces such as
-  `item-effect:potion-strength` use a typed context/input/output boundary. MWG validates and
-  emits the reference shape, while the game owns the domain types, rules, and implementation.
-- `HookWorld`/`Emit` (item 319) - the hook boundary's two halves. `world.variableAt(path)`
-  resolves a nested variable through the same walker `[variable] name=` reads through, and
-  `emit.setVariable(path, value)` is its write, so a hook asks for `stored_naga.hitpoints` and
-  means the same variable content does; writing `world.variables` directly gets a flat dotted
-  key no reader finds.
-- `HookWorld.random`/`MwlRuntimeOptions.random` - a hook draws from the runtime's own seeded
-  `core.Generator` instead of `Math.random()`, so a `generator`/`ai`/domain hook stays reproducible;
-  the draw position is carried on `MwlWorld.random` and resumes exactly across save/restore.
-- `MwlTraceEvent`/`MwlRuntimeOptions.onTrace` - opt-in lifecycle tracing for event claims,
-  completions, variable writes and runtime errors. `MwlHookRegistry.predicate` lets an adapter
-  register named, typed filter predicates without putting game-specific semantics in MWG.
-- `MwlSaveableHookState` / `MwlHookRegistry.saveable` - a game may explicitly expose JSON-safe
-  hook state; `MwlRuntime.save()` includes it and `restore()` hands it back to the same adapter.
-- `MwlRuntime.journal` / `MwlRuntimeAction` - public runtime triggers and their trace batches are
-  recorded in order and persisted with the save, providing a replay and diagnostics input without
-  making MWG interpret game-specific commands.
-- `validateCatalog` also reports `MWL_ALIAS_CYCLE` for cycles among resolved `aliasof` references;
-  aliases outside the catalog remain available for game-defined sentinel values.
-- `validateSimulationReplay` - replays a `SimulationRuntime` journal from a checkpoint, compares
-  each deterministic event batch, and optionally verifies the final state with a stable checksum.
-- `SimulationRuntime` accepts an optional `history: { actorOf, limit? }`; `canUndo`, `canRedo`,
-  `undo()` and `redo()` restore complete state, scheduler, RNG and journal checkpoints.
-- `CanonicalState` / `CanonicalStateSnapshot` - a defensive, JSON-safe root state combined with
-  `StateRegistry` extensions; snapshots, version migrations, transactions and restores cover all
-  pieces atomically.
-- `LockstepClient` supports optional command validation, receives a session seed and initial
-  state, and can submit per-tick state checksums; `onDesync` reports differing peer checksums.
-  `createLockstepServer` accepts matching `seed`, `initialState` and `validateInput` options.
-- `MWL_SCHEMA_01` / `MWL_SCHEMA_10` and `schema01` / `schema10` identify the supported MWL
-  vocabularies; `mwl migrate --to 1.0` updates the document version without changing its data.
-  Schema 1.0 additionally enforces declared required attributes and child cardinalities.
-- `ScriptHost` and `createExpressionScriptHost` - the game-owned boundary for executable content.
-  The expression host is the statement-free default. The main `mwl` entry point
-  exports its types without loading a scripting VM. Projects that opt in to the optional
-  `@datamoc/pyroeis` dependency can import `createPyroeisScriptHost` from `@datamoc/mw_games/mwl/pyroeis`.
-  It provides Lua 5.4 evaluation, chunks, named function calls, JSON-shaped context values, and
-  `mwg_emit(name, payload)` events. The adapter opens only the sandbox-safe standard libraries
-  (base, coroutine, math, string, table, utf8): `io`, `os`, `debug` and `package` with its
-  `require` are never constructed, identically in Node and the browser, the base library's `load`,
-  `loadfile` and `dofile` are removed, and chunks compile in text mode only, so a binary
-  `\x1bLua` dump is rejected. It replaces `math.random` with seeded deterministic random, and
-  enforces an
-  instruction budget and a `memoryLimit` (bytes of string and buffer data one call may
-  allocate, 32 MB by default, parsing included), since one `..` or `string.rep` instruction
-  can allocate without bound. Scripts get `local x <const>`, `local x <close>` (with `__close`,
-  run on a normal exit, `break`, `return` and error, and unwound by a limit error too) and
-  `coroutine.close`, from fork 0.3.0; a `__close` cannot yield. The byte budget is the VM's
-  per-call allocation limit (`limits.totalAllocation` on `PyroeisVm`), so a script's own `pcall`
-  sees the standard `not enough memory`
-  while the host still rejects the call. `getmetatable("")` returns `false`. Globals persist between calls on one host, so
-  mutually untrusted scripts need a host each. Lua VM state is not save data: reload scripts
-  from the game's entry point.
-
-- `createPyroeisRuntime` (the same optional `mwl/pyroeis` subpath) returns a
-  `PyroeisRuntime` for games that need synchronous API responses, live state and
-  resumable handlers. It keeps the smaller `ScriptHost` contract intact.
-  `defineFunction(path, callback)` exposes a host function with arguments and a
-  result, and `get`/`set` use dotted global paths made of identifiers. `run` executes
-  text and returns its first result; `call` accepts a path or a `PyroeisReference`.
-  `reference(path)` retains a Lua table or function's identity, including callbacks
-  registered by Lua; dispose references when finished, or dispose the entire runtime.
-  `PyroeisValue` includes plain values, arrays, objects, Maps, BigInts, binary strings
-  as Uint8Arrays and owned references. Ordinary tables are copied on read; contiguous
-  sequences become arrays. Bound tables retain their references even inside lists.
-  Nil maps to null; assigning it removes a Lua table entry. Lua VM state and references
-  are not JSON save data.
-  `createTable(PyroeisTableBinding)` creates a live proxy: `get` and optional `set`
-  run on ordinary indexed reads/writes, with optional `keys` for `pairs` and `length`
-  for `#`. Nested bindings can return other proxy references, allowing a game to expose
-  a side list, each side's resources, a variable namespace or an entity lookup.
-  Its metatable is hidden; Lua `rawget`/`rawset` still bypass bindings, so callbacks
-  must enforce game rules themselves.
-  `PyroeisRuntimeOptions.modules` snapshots exact module IDs and embedded source
-  strings. Lua `require` caches the first result with Lua identity; `dofile` reruns
-  a source and returns all results. A game can alias `game.require = require` without
-  copying a loader. Unknown IDs, cyclic loads and binary chunks are rejected.
-  No filesystem, fetch or XHR is involved; `io`, `os`, `debug`, `package`, `load` and
-  `loadfile` stay absent. Closing a suspended module load clears its loading marker.
-  `defineYieldingFunction` returns request values to the host; a
-  `PyroeisCoroutine` created by `coroutine(pathOrReference)` exposes `status`,
-  `resume(args)` and `close()`. It can also adopt a thread created by Lua, including
-  one already suspended by the script; each thread has one host controller.
-  Each resume returns `{ done, values }`, with scene
-  answers supplied as the next resume's arguments. Close handlers run on explicit
-  closure or runtime disposal; failed handlers retain their error until closure.
-  Instruction and string/buffer allocation budgets cover compilation, modules,
-  host-side indexing and coroutine resumes. Nested host calls share the current
-  budget; a later top-level call/resume gets a fresh budget. Optional `timeLimit`
-  bounds wall-clock time, including callbacks, but cannot preempt host JavaScript.
-  Randomness is seeded; bounded `math.random` intervals require safe integers.
-  Total JavaScript heap and some native operations remain outside these bounds.
-- `luaToJs(source, { format?, header? })` (same subpath) translates Lua to readable
-  JavaScript without running it and returns `{ code, warnings, exports, freeGlobals }`.
-  Metatables, coroutines, general `goto` and some patterns stay as `TODO(lua2js)`
-  comments with a matching warning; invalid Lua throws `LuaSyntaxError`. Pyroeis's
-  runtime numeric `compile` is not used: it is skipped whenever execution limits are on.
-
-`MwlRuntime` exposes `fireEvent(id)` for named event execution. Event conditions compare
-numeric variables numerically, `set_variable` accepts the bounded MWL expression syntax,
-filters can match a unit id, `unit_at` can constrain a side, and both moveto events and unit
-filters take coordinates as comma-separated lists or inclusive ranges (`x=1,2,4-5`). A
-`set_variable` (either spelling, `[set_variable]` or `[command] name="set_variable"`) may
-declare what its own `value=` means with `mode=literal|number|expression`: `literal` keeps the
-text exactly as written, `number` parses it and refuses anything else, `expression` evaluates
-it and treats a missing variable as an error. Without a mode the value is inferred from its
-shape (`$name` copies a variable, a finite number is a number, operator characters or a
-numeric variable's name evaluate), which is what hand-authored content relies on and what a
-compiler target cannot, since a literal such as `Raise Walking Corpse (8 Gold)` would be read
-as an expression. `path=` is that same write with a target built from variables
-(`zombies[$index].allow_recruit`, or `$target` for a variable holding a path), expanded before
-the path is walked; a reference that names nothing throws rather than leaving an empty segment.
-`name=`/`target=` stay literal (a `$` there is not a reference today, so it is not read as one
-now), which keeps every existing write meaning exactly what it did. Top-level
-`say` commands execute normally. Dialogue choices are
-delivered in `MwlMessage.choices` and answered with `answerDialogue`; pending choices are
-included in save data. Commands after a dialogue in the same event run immediately, before
-the answer, so deferred follow-up commands belong in the selected choice event.
-
-The WML action vocabulary (item 250) is on the same event surface. `fire_event` runs another event
-by id. `store_unit` writes matching units into a world variable, `unstore_unit` and `recall` write
-them back (recall can move one to a chosen hex and side), `modify_unit` changes what its `[set]`
-names and `heal_unit` adds `amount` (or sets `hp`). A unit carries its own `name`, `role`/function
-and `can_recruit` leader flag: `[unit]` sets them, a side's own leader is `can_recruit`, and
-`unitMatchesFilter` reads all three, so `[filter] role=courier`, `name=Kalenz` and
-`can_recruit=yes` select on them (`[store_unit]` and the save keep them too). `set_terrain` changes
-one map cell, `capture_village` records ownership in `MwlWorld.villages`, and `clear_shroud`
-records the hexes a side has uncovered in `MwlWorld.clearedShroud`; the fog itself stays a game
-layer. At scenario level, `[role]` fills `MwlWorld.roles` and stamps the role onto the units it
-matches, `[object]` lands in `MwlWorld.objects`, and `[story]` in `MwlWorld.story` as data
-(rendering a story screen is its own item), all kept in the save. `[item]` is deliberately not
-among them: the tag already means an inventory item definition here, so WML's map-placement shape
-would have collided with it.
-
-Typical build-time usage:
-
-```sh
-npm run mwl -- build content/ -o generated/
-```
-
-The executable [`mwl-content` example](../examples/view.html?ex=mwl-content) shows the full
-path: authored content, generated catalog and manifests, then a small game reading the result
-at runtime. A Wesnoth adapter can convert native `.cfg` files to the same MWL input model
-before invoking this build step.
-
-## `mwl/pyroeis`
-
-The optional Lua 5.4 entry point, `@datamoc/mw_games/mwl/pyroeis`, kept off the `mwl` barrel
-so the Pyroeis VM (the optional `@datamoc/pyroeis` dependency) loads only when a game imports
-it. The `mwl` section above describes its behaviour in full; the exports are:
-
-- `createPyroeisScriptHost(options?)` - a sandboxed `ScriptHost` (`PyroeisScriptHostOptions`:
-  `instructionLimit`, `memoryLimit`, `seed`). Only the base, coroutine, math, string, table and
-  utf8 libraries are opened, `load` is removed, `math.random` is seeded, and every call is
-  bounded; globals persist per host.
-- `createPyroeisRuntime(options?)` - a `PyroeisRuntime` for synchronous host calls and live
-  state: `run`, `call`, `get`/`set` on dotted paths, `reference`, `defineFunction`,
-  `defineYieldingFunction`, `createTable` (live proxy tables), `coroutine` and `dispose`.
-  Types: `PyroeisValue`, `PyroeisReference`, `PyroeisCoroutine`, `PyroeisTableBinding`,
-  `PyroeisRuntimeOptions`.
-- `luaToJs(source, options?)` - translates Lua to readable JavaScript without running it
-  (`LuaToJsOptions`/`LuaToJsResult` are re-exported).
-
-## `ai`
-
-Renderer-free decision runners. The game owns perception, navigation, combat rules and
-goals; these modules provide the execution boundary, deterministic choice support, explicit
-actions, serialisable state, diagnostics and budgets.
-
-- `NeuralPolicy` over `NeuralModel`/`DenseLayer`: dependency-free dense inference,
-  ReLU hidden layers and linear output scores, with flat row-major weights and an
-  explicit `observationVersion`. Construction validates dimensions and finite values
-  before copying the weights; limits are 32 layers, 4096 neurons per layer and one
-  million parameters. `predict(input, output?)` reuses activation buffers and can
-  write into a caller-owned `Float64Array`. `exportModel()` returns a plain-data copy
-  suitable for bundling in a local-file game.
-  `selectAction(NeuralObservation, random?)` masks illegal actions, chooses the first
-  best score on ties and returns `null` when all actions are masked. A seeded random
-  callback enables stable-softmax sampling. `behavior(id, actions, observe, sample?)`
-  maps the same policy into `JavaScriptAI`, using its seeded random callback when
-  sampling. `predictBatchAsync(inputs, { signal?, timeout? })` runs a whole inference
-  batch on one worker. The caller owns stale-result rejection if a scene or position
-  changes while awaiting it. Tiny predictions are usually cheaper synchronously;
-  measure batches before offloading them.
-
-- `JavaScriptAI` - registers named behaviours, checks them in declaration order, and returns
-  a JSON-shaped action or an idle decision. A behaviour receives perception, mutable plain
-  state, seeded `random()`, `emit()` and a cooperative `checkpoint()` for cancellation and
-  step or wall-clock budgets. JavaScript cannot interrupt a synchronous function that never
-  checks its checkpoint, so long-running behaviours must cooperate.
-- `Suggester` - the suggestion mode (roadmap 397): the same decision call a game makes
-  for the AI, pointed at a hint UI instead of the world, throttled by a frame-count
-  budget (`every`, never wall clock) so a hint does not tax the frame budget. The
-  first `update` decides immediately, throttled updates return null while `latest`
-  keeps the previous suggestion, an `idle` decision is a suggestion the UI reads
-  (`decision.action === null`), and `clear` drops it. The decider must not mutate
-  game state to compute a suggestion; what the player does with one is the game's.
-- `alphaBetaSearch`/`AlphaBetaGame` - deterministic minimax with alpha-beta pruning over a
-  game-owned immutable-state adapter. The adapter supplies legal moves, transitions, terminal
-  detection, current player and evaluation from the root player's perspective. `depth`,
-  `maxNodes`, cancellation and node diagnostics bound the search; the same primitive works
-  for a local actor and for a top-level controller such as a chess master.
-  `rootSplits`/`firstWins` are the root-split halves of an off-thread search: the split
-  pairs each root move with its child in game order, and first-wins reduces scored moves
-  so ties keep the earlier move.
-- `personalScoreView`/`sideScoreView`/`scoreWith` over `ScoreSubject`/`ScoreView`/
-  `ScorePersonality` - the numbers a mind that weighs outcomes needs, for the case where a search
-  is the wrong tool. The game owns what anything is worth (`scoreOf`), the framework owns how a
-  view is assembled (own, allies and enemies kept apart, plus a `seen` count), and the mind owns
-  what it cares about: a personality is weights, so a selfish scout and a loyal one are content
-  rather than two AI implementations. Both scopes read through the same code and differ only in
-  the visibility set they are handed, a unit's own sight or `FactionFog.sees(side)`. `ScoreSubject`
-  also carries an optional `type`, `role`/function, `can_recruit` leader flag and `name`, and
-  `subjectsWhere`/`ScoreSubjectFilter` select a world on any of them, so a mind finds "the enemy
-  leader" (`{ side: 'red', can_recruit: true }`) without re-deriving it from ids.
-
-- The heuristic AI (item 269): `Aspects`/`AspectValues`/`AspectValue` - the named tuning knobs
-  (`aggression`, `caution`, `keep_away`, `recruitment_pattern`, ...) with typed readers and no
-  built-in values, since the numbers are content; `Difficulty`/`DifficultyLevel` - named levels as
-  aspect overrides on a base set; `Goals`/`Goal`/`GoalKind` - per-unit orders a stage's `weigh`
-  reads; `RecruitmentPattern` - a side's recruit order, cycled, with a fallback. `HeuristicAI`
-  runs candidate actions through `HeuristicStage`s in order, the first whose `when` passes scoring
-  every `HeuristicCandidate` and taking the best (earlier candidate on a tie); a candidate may carry
-  the acting unit's own `type`/`role`/`can_recruit`/`name` for a custom `weigh` to read.
-  `defaultWeigh` is each factor times the aspect of the same name with `keepAwayScore` for a
-  candidate's `distance`; `goalScore` is what a custom `weigh` adds for a goal.
-- `AIDecision`/`AIDecisionInput`/`AIAction` - the shared contract for perception, explicit
-  action objects, status (`action`, `idle`, `cancelled`, or `budget-exceeded`), emitted
-  diagnostics and state snapshots.
-- `AICancelledError`/`AIBudgetExceededError` - the cooperative control-flow errors used by
-  a JavaScript behaviour when it observes cancellation or exceeds its configured budget.
-- `exportState`/`importState` - versioned, JSON-shaped agent state. Function closures, VM
-  state and arbitrary object graphs never become save data.
-- `LuaAI`/`createLuaAI` from `@datamoc/mw_games/ai/lua` - optional Lua 5.4 provider with the same
-  action and state envelope. A Lua function receives `(perception, state)` and returns an action
-  table or `{ action, state, events }`. It uses the existing optional Pyroeis host, which
-  removes filesystem, process, module-loading, clock and debug access, supplies seeded random,
-  and enforces an instruction budget.
-- `AIAgentDefinition`/`AIBehavior` - JavaScript registrations; Lua registrations instead
-  provide a source chunk and an entry function name. Both remain game-owned content and
-  do not include any reference game's code or data.
-
-MWL `[ai]` profiles describe the boundary without embedding executable game rules: `scope`
-is `actor` or `controller`, `provider` is `javascript` or `lua`, `algorithm` can be
-`rules` or `alpha_beta`, and `depth`, `max_nodes`, `player`, `moves`, `apply`, `terminal`
-and `evaluate` identify search limits and game-owned operations. A game resolves those names
-to JavaScript behaviours or Lua functions and supplies the actual state, legal moves and
-evaluation.

-### Skeleton extensions (417-421)
-
-- `skeleton.solveTwoBoneIK(skeleton, first, second, target, bend, pose)` solves a connected
-  two-bone chain in world coordinates. `bend` is +1 or -1; positive bends clockwise on screen.
-  Positive finite lengths and a zero origin on the second bone are required. Unreachable
-  targets throw with the chain names. Rest rotations and rotated ancestors are supported.
-- `Bone.limits: { min, max }` bounds the absolute local rotation in degrees, including rest
-  rotation. `skeleton.validatePose` checks an authored pose; `samplePose` and
-  `sampleTransformPose` accept an optional skeleton for validation. Mixers and `resolve`
-  validate automatically. Use a nonnegative or nonpositive interval to constrain bend direction.
-- `Keyframe.translations` and `Keyframe.scales` map bone names to `{ x, y }` channels.
-  `skeleton.sampleTransformPose` and `skeleton.advancePose` return a `TransformPose`, with
-  `rotations`, `translations` and `scales`. Missing channels interpolate toward zero translation
-  or unit scale. Looping, reverse playback, holding, priority layers and crossfades share the
-  rotation timeline. Legacy `samplePose` and `advance` return rotations only.
-- `SkeletalSprite.apply` accepts either rotation poses or `TransformPose`; its mixer uses
-  `advancePose` automatically. `setDiagnostics(true)` explicitly enables bone lines, pivot
-  crosses, joint circles and tips. Omit it in release builds; disabled rigs allocate no overlay.
-- `assets.loadSvgParts(sourceOrPath, { resolution, groups })` returns borrowed textures keyed
-  by top-level SVG group name. It preserves the full SVG canvas, group attributes, shared defs
-  and styles. Repeated loads reuse textures; resolutions have separate cache entries. Compiled
-  asset paths decode directly from data URIs under `file://`. Unknown groups and invalid
-  resolutions throw by name. `releaseSvgParts(parts)` unloads them once no sprite uses them.
-- `node tools/check-skeleton-extensions-browser.mjs [local-vehicle.svg]` builds a classic
-  local-file page, verifies WebGL rendering, texture reuse, resolution isolation and diagnostic
-  cleanup, and writes screenshots under `benchmark-results/skeleton-extensions/`. The default
-  vehicle is generated; passing a local consumer SVG embeds it only into ignored scratch output.
-
-### Deformation, articulated SVG loading and asset filtering (414-416)
-
-- `PinnedDeform` / `DeformableSprite` expose pinned control points. `dragVertex`, `nudgeVertex`
-  and `resetVertices` change GPU vertex positions without changing UVs or rotating the sprite.
-  `dragVertices([{ index, x, y }, ...])` validates a batch before applying it and uploads once;
-  the pure `PinnedDeform.dragMany` performs the same batch operation without a renderer.
-- `loadSvgSkeleton(sourceOrPath, { skeleton, bindings?, pivots?, resolution?, mixer? })` returns
-  `{ sprite, textures }`. `sprite` is a `SkeletalSprite` with named SVG groups already bound.
-  By default matching groups bind in SVG document order. Explicit `bindings` provide draw order,
-  group-to-bone mapping and optional pivot/rest-angle overrides. Pivots come from `data-pivot-x`
-  and `data-pivot-y` (root SVG user coordinates), or a `pivots` map keyed by group id. Missing
-  pivots, groups, bones and duplicate bindings fail by name. Separately bound descendants are
-  removed from parent textures; ancestor transforms, shared styles and defs survive. Artwork is
-  normalized against each bone's rest angle so poses rotate the correct limbs about their pivots.
-  Browser DOMParser/XMLSerializer are required. Compiled paths work under `file://`. Destroy the
-  sprite with `{ children: true }`, then call `releaseSvgParts(textures)` when all users are done.
-- `mwgPage({ assetFiles: ['hero.svg', 'music/theme.ogg'] })` embeds only those asset-folder paths.
-  Omit `assetFiles` to keep all supported assets; `[]` embeds none. Unknown or unsupported named
-  entries fail before replacing compiled asset scripts. Both `emitPage` and `compileResources`
-  accept the same option. `credits.json` generates `CREDITS.txt` when selected, or with no filter.
-- Browser checks: `node tools/check-sprite-deform-browser.mjs [local-bird.svg]` and
-  `node tools/check-svg-skeleton-browser.mjs [local-character.svg] [local-manifest.json]` build
-  local-file WebGL pages and save rest/posed screenshots under `benchmark-results/`. Defaults
-  use generated art; consumer inputs remain in ignored scratch output only.
