Bind Truthtrance shipments before respondent turns

Admit supported active or originally queued unused shipments during the current Shipment & Movement phase. Answering preserves the real active player and queue; private future reachability uses owned resources, joint whole promises and the actual respondent profile. Hide executable guidance until that owner is active. Keep native Guild WAIT/TAKE, frozen mixed facts, interception, costs and actual delivery.

Do not release a waiting promise while another declaration is unresolved or count its approved ally contribution as freely recoverable. Before response declaration, reject Emperor gifts or optional BG accompaniment that remove the last legal completion; affordable options remain legal. Minimal AI declines optional accompaniment while bound rather than attempting to spend required reserves. No strategy tuning or new profile/module/earlier-phase opening.

Validation and exact frozen-source evidence are recorded in the canonical Truthtrance shipment contract. Three real public Basic/Advanced programmes use original unopened starting deals, paid intervening turns and a later Emperor or native out-of-order Guild fulfillment. Four minimal policies answer while waiting and ship only on their actual turn. Controlled funding, temporary price, gift and advisor probes remain separate. Existing stale scope fixtures and two type declarations were repaired during feedback.

Earlier phases, broader modules/actions, full Truthtrance/modes, final assurance and browser/deployed acceptance remain open. No saved-room/database/reset/restart/deployment operation.

 ## Current checkpoint and work
+**Truthtrance before the respondent's turn — 24 October. Prototyped / Partial.**
+Same-phase questions now include a supported unused turn still in the original
+queue. Waiting promises remain visible without an executable early action;
+private reachability uses owned resources, and native Guild WAIT/TAKE retains its
+original timing. Pending foreign declarations defer release; their approved ally
+funding stays locked. Voluntary Emperor gifts/BG accompaniment cannot spend the
+last completion. Minimal policies legally decline optional accompaniment while
+bound; no strategy tuning, new profile/module or earlier-phase opening.
+
+A disjoint genuine-fixture lane, bounded continuation review and owner
+integration pass **14 files146/146**, one updated existing in-memory scope case,
+types/lint/build and three original-action/rendered-table programmes plus four
+finite policies. Public classic Basic/Advanced starting deals use40/45 source
+actions; paid intervening turns and later Emperor3/cost3 or Guild3/half2 fulfill
+in16/19/29 continuations. Four profiles make eight legal answer/shipment proposals
+and finish. Separate controlled funding, price, gift and advisor probes pass.
+Feedback repaired an obsolete negative waiting-target fixture and two type
+declarations. No broader recovery campaign, browser/visual/deployed or full-mode
+acceptance. No saved-room/database/reset/restart/deployment operation.
