 Fresh official indexed retrieval confirms Ecaz can revive Duke at a normal price of five spice without a dead-leader threshold. Five Ecaz leaders in the Tanks, counting Duke, permit ordinary revival even with a survivor. Only Ecaz may revive Duke, including through Ghola. His battle strength remains six and he has no Traitor card. These are Basic Ecaz rules as well as Advanced rules.

 Bounded primary-source review, 2026-09-06. This document supplements `DUKE_VIDAL_RULES.md` and separates the ordinary arithmetic and eligibility rules from unresolved shared-disc custody and cycle questions. No runtime edits were made.
 
+## Selected product interpretation (28 September 2026)
+
+The user chose **set-aside custody**: a successful ordinary Ecaz revival or Ecaz
+Ghola returns the same dead Duke disc alive to the shared area, with
+`controller`, `source` and `acquiredTurn` cleared. It is not automatically
+playable by Ecaz. This is an explicit product interpretation, **not** a
+publisher ruling; the Ambassador or another supported living-disc acquisition
+must subsequently claim him. Ordinary revival costs five spice (three with
+the existing Tleilaxu alliance discount), spends Ecaz's ordinary leader slot,
+and follows the normal stop, discount-cancellation and payment/income windows.
+Ghola spends the actual card instead of spice or that slot. Strength remains
+six; both paths preserve the physical death history.
+
+Ecaz's first ordinary cohort opens with five dead discs counting Duke, or
+when its entire native five-disc roster is unavailable under the existing
+captured-leader exception. The opened first cohort persists across returns.
+Further native returns once any of the six histories enters a repeated cycle
+remain explicitly gated; Duke's independent Ecaz-only permission remains
+available, without making a repeated six-disc algorithm up. Captured, Ghola
+or concealed shared-disc custody and Advanced Harkonnen combinations retain
+their existing uniform boundary.
+
 ## Explicit expansion rules
 
 Ecaz may revive Duke for **5 spice regardless of how many leaders are dead**. Its ordinary leaders become revivable with **five leaders in the Tanks, including Duke**. The clarification expressly permits this while Ecaz still holds one living leader, regardless of which leader that is. Only Ecaz may revive Duke, including through the Ghola Treachery Card.

 The ordinary base rule makes a revived leader playable. Applying that ordinary result to the special Ecaz-only revival strongly supports active Ecaz custody, treating the Ambassador sentence as acquisition of a living shared disc. The competing literal reading revives Duke to the shared set-aside area so that Ambassador-only acquisition remains universal. The retrieved expansion does not expressly choose between those readings. The Ghola FAQ permits a revived leader to fight in the same Battle phase, but does not specifically resolve Duke’s custody. [GF9 base rules, printed pp. 9, 22](https://www.gf9games.com/dunegame/wp-content/uploads/Dune-Rulebook.pdf)
 
-**Implementation boundary:** do not certify either controller assignment as an explicit Duke FAQ result. Obtain a supported interpretation before activating revival, especially Ghola during Battle. Persisting `dead=false` while silently choosing `controller=null` or Ecaz changes whether the paid card/action is useful immediately. If Ecaz control is selected, it must be explicit shared custody rather than inserting Duke into the native five-leader array.

 # Physical cards and effective battle weapons
 
-7 September 2026. This is a shared combat foundation for Mirror Weapon, not activation of its complete gameplay.
+The 7 September foundation now feeds a bounded, playable Mirror Weapon battle path (28 September 2026). The historical focused test counts below predate that integration.

 `game/battle-cards.ts` consumes the descriptors for ordinary attacks, self-attacks, Artillery suppression/no-bounty behavior and a shared Lasgun explosion predicate. The authoritative engine and AI's fully known battle calculations use that predicate. Single-card knowledge remains single-card knowledge; no new hidden-hand access was added to AI evaluation. Actual Shield and Shield Snooper trigger explosions; defensive Weirding Way and Portable Snooper do not.
 
-Physical plan IDs, Atreides inspection, Truthtrance commitments, custody, winning card retention and Moritani retention are unchanged. The engine still rejects Mirror as a Battle Plan weapon. Copy arithmetic must not be confused with completed controls, persisted copied choices, Stone outcome integration or cleanup.
+Physical plan IDs, Atreides inspection, Truthtrance commitments, custody, winning card retention and Moritani retention remain physical. The engine admits canonical Mirror only for CHOAM/Richese-deck classic/CHOAM/Richese rosters without combined optional modules; it rejects unsupported setups before commitment. It validates the original and copied Stone casualty possibilities using public force pools and checks reserved physical Mirror custody across saved zones.
 
 ## Evidence and boundaries
 
-The current review in [MIRROR_WEAPON_ENGINE_AUDIT.md](MIRROR_WEAPON_ENGINE_AUDIT.md) remains the source contract. A fresh bounded publisher search again found the November FAQ's general winner-retention rule and named Tooth/Artillery exceptions, but no explicit ruling about the physical Mirror copying those exceptions. The earlier user clarification remains unanswered. The CHOAM package itself supplies Tooth and Artillery; excluding only Ix would not isolate this uncertainty. No source absence or elapsed silence was treated as an adjudication.
+The [Mirror audit](MIRROR_WEAPON_ENGINE_AUDIT.md#user-selected-cleanup-interpretation-28-september-2026) records the user's explicit choice: a victorious physical Mirror may be retained even after copying activated Tooth or Artillery. The November FAQ names the original Tooth/Artillery cards, but no publisher passage was found assigning their disposal to Mirror. This is a product interpretation, not a GF9 ruling. The revealed decision queue binds copied Tooth/Stone choices to the physical Mirror, copied source and battle event, presents the copy before its original, and saves each owner's independent answer across reload.
 
 Portable Snooper and Stone Burner now have runtime foundations that were absent when the original audit was written. Their current event, defense, casualty-feasibility and public configuration restrictions remain in force. In particular, introducing a copy must not bypass the original Stone player's precommit feasibility guard or choose a hidden-plan-dependent acceptance boundary.
 
-Remaining work includes canonical Mirror plan admission and named Voice role; physical prescience and promise checks; event-bound copy/source choice ownership and ordering; Stone's effective outcome; settled cleanup rules; controls, AI choice handling and persisted full battles. General expansion/module and Advanced acceptance remain incomplete.
+Combined expansion modules, leader skills, alternate card-role changes, complete Richese starts and full-mode release acceptance remain gated. The bounded path has human selectors, copy/retention guidance and legal AI plans/choices, without reading sealed opposing cards.
 
 ## Verification
 
-`tests/effective-weapons.test.ts` contains ten independent helper tests: both orientations, all actual ordinary/Ix attack roles, canonical Stone, no-copy roles, original-versus-copied Chemistry, independent choice order, malformed/duplicate Mirror and frozen inputs. `tests/effective-battle-effects.test.ts` contains six integration tests using an explicit printed defense matrix, all Tooth activation pairs, Artillery defenses, Lasgun shield combinations, no-attack/Stone boundaries and continued blocked Mirror admission.
+`tests/effective-weapons.test.ts` exercises the pure physical/effective role matrix; `tests/effective-battle-effects.test.ts`, `tests/battle-resolution-quote.test.ts` and `tests/mirror-weapon-engine.test.ts` cover copied defenses, Carthag's effective poison, Stone outcomes, copy-first post-reveal ownership, JSON continuation, stale events, physical disposal and four-profile Basic/Advanced AI admission. Historical foundation counts below remain archived rather than substituted for end-to-end evidence.
 
-The focused 53-test combat run passes, including existing authoritative Ix, Tooth/Artillery, Portable and Stone cases: `/tmp/dune-effective-weapons-target.log`. Type checking, lint and production build pass: `/tmp/dune-effective-weapons-type.log`, `/tmp/dune-effective-weapons-lint.log`, `/tmp/dune-effective-weapons-build.log`. No Mirror full-game or card-completion claim follows from these arithmetic tests.
+The earlier focused 53-test combat run passed before engine admission: `/tmp/dune-effective-weapons-target.log`. Its type, lint and build records (`/tmp/dune-effective-weapons-{type,lint,build}.log`) establish only the earlier foundation. Current integration checks belong to the newer checkpoint in `IMPLEMENTATION_STATUS.md`.
 
 Full registered suites pass: **1,500 rules/client/component tests and 129 persistence/API tests**, 1,629 total. Logs: `/tmp/dune-effective-weapons-full.log` (67.15 seconds) and `/tmp/dune-effective-weapons-multiplayer.log` (18.64 seconds). The historical 648-game calibration was not rerun.
 
 An independent differential script, `/tmp/dune-effective-comparison.ts`, compares the previous evaluator against the saved implementation using 57 canonical cards and 494 legal same-side pairs. All 865,580 effect comparisons, 216,395 explosion comparisons and 3,364 single-weapon comparisons agree. This is regression evidence for existing legal behavior, not independent proof of complete printed rules. Root reviewed the new helper, tests and integration; the independent review also checked that AI receives no new hidden-hand inputs.
 
-Malformed Mirror-marked saved cards fail closed with a plain error from the pure evaluator; that can surface as a generic API failure rather than a recoverable rules message. Valid physical inventory does not produce this path. Complete corrupted battle recovery, including event/source validation for existing Poison Tooth answers, remains follow-up work and is not certified by this foundation.
+Malformed Mirror-marked saved cards fail closed in the pure evaluator; authoritative saved-battle integrity now also validates canonical physical Mirror custody and copied-choice source/event. The full historical-save compatibility audit remains final polish, not a claim made by this bounded runtime.

 # Dune implementation status
 
+## 28 September 2026 — Ecaz Duke revival and bounded Mirror Weapon
+
+The user chose two explicit product interpretations after bounded publisher
+source review: a successfully revived Duke returns alive to the shared area,
+unclaimed until later acquisition; a victorious physical Mirror may be kept
+even when its copied attack activates Poison Tooth or Artillery. Neither is
+presented as an official GF9 clarification. Ecaz's separate five-spice
+ordinary Duke revival and Ghola now use the same physical disc, with first
+five-in-Tanks cohort eligibility, frozen discount/payment and Tleilaxu
+stop/cancellation continuation, owner controls, minimal legal AI and JSON/
+isolated SQLite recovery. Repeated six-disc native cycles, exceptional
+shared-disc custody and Advanced Harkonnen remain guarded.
+
+Canonical Mirror now occupies the actual weapon slot in bounded Basic/Advanced
+CHOAM/Richese-deck classic/CHOAM/Richese battles. Revealed opposing attacks,
+copy-first independently saved Tooth/Stone choices, Stone's public casualty
+feasibility, physical-card retention/custody, Carthag's effective-poison
+defense, named Voice, human controls and four-profile legal AI are connected.
+Combined modules, changing card roles, complete Richese starts and release
+acceptance remain gated. Read-only local desktop browser fixtures showed the
+selectable Duke at five spice with strength six/set-aside guidance and the
+Mirror weapon selector, copied-attack explanation and updated hand guide;
+no real room was written. The verified live image remains `c9a3625`.
+
+Independent read-only reviews found and prompted fixes for concealed foreign-
+ghola death-count privacy, Mirror Voice compulsion deadlock, reordered saved
+copy decisions and incorrect Stone scoring of ordinary Mirror copies. The
+reviewed focused run passed **66/66**; the frozen full offline suite passed
+**5,643/5,643** across 714 files, live development-server HTTP integration
+passed **52/52**, scoped oxlint and the app build passed. Project TypeScript
+still reports only the unrelated in-progress Fremen Nexus draft's missing
+`Player.fremenNexusMovementBlockedTurn`; the required full `npm run check`
+cannot be claimed green until that draft is resolved. Browser proof also
+showed the actual copy-first revealed Tooth decision and physical Mirror/
+opponent Tooth card faces. Production deployment remains blocked by the
+OS-locked host Apps session, not by a local reset or game migration.

 # Mirror Weapon: source and engine integration audit
 
-Audited 6 September 2026. This is a proposed implementation contract, not activation or verification of Mirror Weapon gameplay. No runtime file was changed by this audit. Richese and combined expansion starts remain gated.
+Audited 6 September 2026 as a proposed contract. The 28 September bounded runtime now admits canonical Mirror in CHOAM/Richese-deck classic/CHOAM/Richese battles without optional combined modules; the hook map and former blockers below describe the earlier audit, not current inactive status. Richese expansion starts remain gated.
 
-**7 September follow-up:** Portable Snooper and Stone Burner now have runtime foundations, superseding the historical absence noted below. A shared physical/effective weapon resolver and ordinary attack/explosion integration are recorded in [EFFECTIVE_BATTLE_WEAPONS.md](EFFECTIVE_BATTLE_WEAPONS.md). Mirror plan admission remains disabled; copied choices, full outcome and cleanup integration are unfinished. Fresh bounded publisher retrieval did not settle the pending copied-disposal question.
+**28 September ruling and runtime:** the user selected ordinary winner retention for the physical Mirror even when its copy activates Tooth or Artillery. This is an explicit product interpretation, not a located GF9 clarification. `game/effective-weapons.ts` keeps physical identity apart from copied attacks; the engine now connects copied Tooth/Stone choices, Stone comparison, custody, battle controls and legal AI in the bounded configuration.

-- **Copied compulsory disposal:** the FAQ names physical Tooth/Artillery, while Mirror copies a weapon. The retrieved primary sources do not explicitly say whether their disposal exception also applies to the physical Mirror. Separate combat effects from cleanup and obtain a ruling before certifying those pairings. This does not justify blocking ordinary projectile/poison/Lasgun/Poison Blade/selected-role copies.
-- **Stone Burner foundation:** the full effect is presently unsupported. Basic undialed counts follow physical forces minus dialed losses; ties use ordinary aggressor priority unless overridden. Advanced mixed/support-dependent dials can permit different physical casualty allocations, which now affect who wins; the present engine chooses those only for an already determined winner. Stone's original choice and allocation timing must be implemented/audited before its copied form. This is an underlying special-outcome problem, not uncertainty over whether Mirror copies a valid weapon.
+- **Copied compulsory disposal:** the physical Mirror follows ordinary winner retention even if it copies activated Tooth or Artillery, by the user's selected product interpretation. Keep physical identity separate from the effective attack and do not present this as a publisher ruling.
+- **Stone Burner composition:** the original Stone effect has a runtime foundation with a public precommit casualty-feasibility guard and one saved choice. A copied Stone needs the same feasibility for the Mirror holder without inspecting the opposing sealed plan, plus separate copy-first choice ownership. This is an outcome-integration problem, not uncertainty over whether Mirror copies a valid weapon.
 - **Higher modules:** inactive leader skills may modify attacks, defenses or card roles. No combined leader-skill certification follows from the matrix. Two physical Mirrors are outside the verified inventory rather than a normal supported interaction.
 
 ## Required verification before claiming the slice
 
 Tests should cover every matrix row in both attacker/defender positions; paired defenses; no-attack copies; Mirror plus defensive Weirding Way; named Voice and physical prescience/Truth commitments; Lasgun explosion including advisors/spice and traitor preemption; copied Tooth choice order independent of storm order; once-only global Artillery suppression; exact physical retention/discard policy after its ruling; Moritani eligible-card filtering; JSON restoration between reveal and choices; stale event rejection; and identical unauthorized projections with different opposing hands. Run all four AI profiles through a complete supported battle, including a Mirror with no useful copy, without an acknowledgement or deadlock.
 
-Five facets remain partial: source audit and component text are present; authoritative behavior, player controls, AI and integrated verification have not been activated by this document. Existing tests of ordinary battle cards are useful regression evidence, not proof of Mirror behavior.

The bounded runtime implements this physical-card distinction; it is not a publisher clarification or complete combined-mode acceptance.
