Add room-creation and host lobby rules selectors, readiness reset, explicit
preview start and a persistent warning. Admit the six classic factions,
Tech Tokens with 3+ players and optional Stronghold Cards through genuine
setup. Keep expansion/module gates and complete-rules/publication criteria.
Persist the preview marker and enforce fresh native leaders, unchanged
piece custody and clean runtime/pacing state. Preserve private projections,
JSON continuation, exact room-entry retries and version/CAS protection.
Independent review resolved malformed leader, extra card-zone, missing
required-key and stale bot-deadline admission gaps.
Validation on the shared development tree: types, lint, 5169 offline
tests, build and 50 HTTP tests passed. The tree also contained the
separate deployment task's changes; this commit stages only preview scope.
All 57 base rosters completed real setup with each legal AI profile. Five
normal-preview-start games (2–6 seats) completed 1950 actions and
51 JSON restores without rejected actions; no strategy calibration.
Browser: actual create, host switch/readiness/Stronghold reset, explicit
start, exact private refresh, desktop and mobile warning checked. Retained
dev process stopped; backed up 1,629 saved games, restored server with all
unchanged, and resumed the same traitor choice into Storm. Baseline all-table
preservation retained 1626 rooms and 3442 seats; totals
now 1669 rooms and 3536 seats. No reset or automation.
Preview remains incomplete. Legacy unsupported expansion creation payloads
remain accepted for exact retry compatibility but cannot start. Existing
rules ambiguities and full visual acceptance remain open.
Automatically return the full combined hand when it is the only legal
special-Karama return. Preserve real choices and restore the suspended
response or auction payment through the same settlement. Record the actual
blind draw as owner-only historical card faces, with a bound integrity
receipt; legacy forced saves describe held-card history truthfully.
Add readable private history and enlarged inspectors. Both manual and
forced returns publish only a faction/action completion tag. Wake idle
legacy exchanges through production recovery without writes for real
choices. Keep provisional auction funding rules and release gates.
Validation: types, lint, 5150 offline tests, build and 49 HTTP tests
passed. Independent review resolved history substitution and root review
completed idle recovery wiring. New tests cover 1-4 forced draws, real
choices, overlays, exact saved history, immutable rejection, all four legal
AI paths, production competing actions/recovery, private views and custody.
One genuine Advanced four-player sample completed 158 actions with
4 JSON restores and no rejected action; no difficulty tuning.
Browser QA QUTHVPTT used genuine Advanced setup and conserved Bidding
positions. The actual power returned four cards without a prompt; private
history/enlargement and exact refresh worked. Phone panel fit without
horizontal overflow with 44px inspector controls. Screenshot capture timed
out; complete visual acceptance and transient notice capture remain open.
Preserved every prior row across all ten tables, including 1586
rooms and 3354 seats. New QA/integration records bring totals to
1626 rooms and 3442 seats. No reset, restart or automation.
Tag committed ordinary movement, shipping, revival, collection, battle,
native Guild transport and HMS relocation for the existing house notices
and optional sounds. Keep pending and canceled actions free of false
completion notices and preserve richer Smuggler and card-specific labels.
Bound feedback to three 1.5-second notices including the active notice.
Summarize older pending events with an exact count and retain individual
chronicle entries. Consume stale, duplicate, muted and hidden updates
without replay; clear visible and queued feedback when the page hides.
These changes add log metadata and cosmetic presentation only.
Validation: types, lint, 5137 offline tests and production build passed.
Independent review resolved one duplicate Smuggler notice. Nine engine
regressions and six queue/cursor/component tests cover the new behavior.
Two Basic/Advanced four-player games completed with 821 legal actions,
21 JSON restores and zero rejected actions; no AI tuning was done.
Browser QA 76CMLL8Z used genuine Basic setup and private real-action batches.
A seven-event burst displayed Revival plus four earlier actions, then
drained. Chronicle navigation and silent toggle/refresh were checked;
refresh kept the saved row identical. Phone notice bounds fit without
overflow. Transient phone text and actual background visibility were not
captured; screenshot and full visual acceptance remain open.
All 1,585 prior rooms, 3,353 seats and auxiliary records stayed unchanged.
One QA room and human seat were added; no reset, restart or automation.
