+An actual Advanced Richese special-Karama cache acquisition during Bidding
+now supplies its own committed purchase authority. The original printed
+Karama is discarded, three spice paid, selected cache card delivered and
+once-use committed **before** the independent Nexus choice. This is the
+same selected independent-cache interpretation, not a fabricated auction
+or another use of the special power. Other phases retain native acquisition
+without a Bidding-only Nexus opportunity; Basic special powers are not added.
+
+The optional direct receipt binds buyer, cache target, original Karama,
+amount3, turn and phase3. It takes precedence over an unrelated normal sale
+or native lot. Original active player, response, decision and pending Karama
+are suspended exactly, including applicable new purchase income and any
+older control it wraps. Use/Keep retires only this receipt, then original
+income and controls resume. Existing v1 purchase/closed receipts remain
+unchanged; normal/native parents gain no new keys without a direct receipt.
+
+The nested-income path exposed an existing funding defect: a normal bid was
+still reserved after its delivered `currentAuctionSale` had already consumed
+it. `uncommittedSpice` now reserves only unpaid normal bids. The actual
+remaining three spice can buy the special cache card, while a genuinely
+unpaid bid2 still stays reserved. No payment is waived, refunded or replayed.

+pass, including existing Karama-intent/bribe budget consumers. Types/lint and

+from original actions; only still-undealt deck order is selected.

+wallet3, then direct Use exchanges Residual Poison for Artillery and preserves
+the older Poison Tooth: wallet0, Emperor10→15, one row advance. The unpaid
+bid scene keeps bid2 reserved at wallet5, pays direct3, then direct Keep lets
