+**Distrans before the first bid/pass — 26 October. Prototyped / Partial.**
+An untouched ordinary lot now allows the private card transfer before its first
+bid or pass, with the same dealt pool/index/opener/order/active seat. The span is
+explicitly provisional; active bids, unpaid special auctions and self-transfer
+keep their restrictions. Current capacity controls new bids after a gift: a full
+active seat sees Raise disabled, can Pass, and all four minimal profiles do so.

+and give the original Guild Shield. Native purchases earn full-donor and final-
+slot recipient positions; real Pass and payment finish the same lot. A genuinely
+full recipient rejects at turn2. All45 original Treachery remain. Source actions
+are Basic33/42/44/87 and Advanced38/47/49/96 for ordinary/donor-full/final-slot/

+First bid/pass, unpaid special-auction and self-transfer restrictions remain;
+completed paid-sale use keeps its existing allowance. Current hand capacity is

 Distrans itself as the gifted card is not resolved by the face's give-then-discard instruction. Do not put the same physical card in both the recipient's hand and discard; reject that target as unsupported pending clarification. Other reserved/committed-card and answer-first constraints are the same continuation concerns as the alliance gift. A successful ordinary transfer consumes exactly the chosen separate card plus Distrans from the donor's hand, adds the chosen card to the recipient, and puts only Distrans in normal discard. This produces a new discard event relevant to future Semuta integration.

+## Untouched ordinary lot — 26 October 2026
+
+The printed exception excludes use during a bid, without defining its complete
+span. Under the 14 October choose-recommended authority, allow Distrans on a
+real untouched ordinary lot before its first bid or pass. This is a provisional
+timing composition, not a retrieved publisher clarification. It supersedes only
+that part of the original blanket unpaid-lot boundary below. Later lots may
+qualify independently; already committed lot quantity and physical deck order
+do not change. The existing completed paid-sale allowance remains.
+
+`game/distrans-timing.ts` supplies the authoritative timing block. It requires
+Bidding, an actual current ordinary card, zero bid, no bidder/passes/contribution
+and no Richese special lot. Current inspection does not consume this window.
+The first accepted bid or pass closes it for that lot; no action resets the
+bid history to permit a transfer. Once Around/Silent unpaid lots, self-transfer,
+Truthtrance, exact physical reservations and pending capacity commitments keep
+their existing restrictions. This does not certify every auction substep.
+
+The existing action, private projection and selectors remain. Persistent human
+guidance identifies the provisional span. Both outgoing cards and the recipient
+are validated before the normal private transfer/discard; no recipient consent,
+payment or extra deal is added. The current lot/cards/index/opener/order/active
+seat remain. Full donor hands can free space, while a recipient whose final
+slot is filled cannot buy beyond its limit. Shared `normalAuctionHandBlock`
+is used by the engine, minimal AI and table controls: a now-full active player
+may pass, then the existing cycle skips ineligible hands. No new saved field,
+source kind or transfer response is introduced.

+Frozen evidence: **10 files,68/68**, types/lint/build and eight native

+R/G/A/E source buys the physical cache Distrans for1 and retains its original
+starting Shield. Actual ordinary purchases create full-donor, final-slot active
+recipient and already-full recipient positions. The last rejects at turn2;
+successful transfers finish the original lot through native bidding/payment.
+All45 original cards remain. Source actions: Basic33/42/44/87 and

Do not put the same physical card in both the recipient's hand and the discard, discard a different card, or silently omit the discard.

+14 October choose-recommended authority, a physical ordinary lot with no bid,
+bidder, pass or committed contribution may accept Distrans before its first bid
+or pass. This selects a provisional span; inspection and opening the lot do not
