The existing offline faction runner now selects genuine Basic and Advanced base games with two through six players. Original six expansion defaults and seed offsets remain stable; player-count filters require the explicit base profile. Saved AI profiles choose every setup and game action. This replaces repeated private harness copies while preserving source-bound private reports, failed traces and explicit snapshot resume. Shared custody checks include every physical Treachery zone, nonnegative integer resources, twenty-force totals, the distinct Emperor/Fremen/Ixian elite totals and subsets, and canonical base Traitor identities after dealing. Rejected actions must leave their input unchanged; periodic JSON restoration compares all private views and excludes rival private hand/spice/Traitor/Face Dancer fields. Optional modules and separate private previews cannot be resumed as ordinary fixed scenarios. Resume still requires checking original setup provenance and intentionally restarts the selected random stream. Independent review caught and corrected seven-cyborg accounting, save-derived Traitor expectations, missing elite records and private-preview classification. Meaningful regressions cover those failures plus strict filters, original names/seeds, failed subprocess reporting, source stability and resume. Types, lint and 4823 offline tests pass. No application, dependency, HTTP or database code changed, so build/HTTP suites were not repeated. All ten base and six existing expansion samples completed on the final unchanged source: 6746 accepted actions, 175 periodic restores, 82 rejected candidates retained in traces. The expansion guarded-arrival fallbacks remain visible; these samples do not certify every faction, optional module, player-count rule or difficulty ordering. Exact expansion Traitor/Face Dancer custody still needs its own adapter. The earlier pilot/source-changed report remains private; the required check was repeated after the late review correction rather than accepting results from changing source. All 1038 opening games and original seat/recovery records are unchanged; 1038 rooms remain. SQLite integrity and foreign keys pass. The existing QA table restored its saved seat and fulfilled shipment after browser refresh. The healthy server was reused without reset or restart. The rules register now explicitly records the Moritani Secret Ally after-loss privacy blocker. A holder-only pause exposes its hidden Nexus; the existing alliance-retention helper does not resolve the shared pending response UX decision. No duplicate user question, new house rule or mode/publication gate change was introduced. Verified source tree: 85d5a53fa72efb9704c1828526aaccba1554670307ce476f729eae9c5c4abff9

Repeatable verification
Use the development guide to choose checks appropriate to the change. These wrappers retain the existing test runner and simulation harness; they do not replace rules, browser or release acceptance.
Compact checks and source evidence
node --import tsx tools/verify.ts --out /tmp/dune-new-focused focused --focus guild-payment
node --import tsx tools/verify.ts --out /tmp/dune-new-check check
# Add build for app/build/dependency changes, integration for HTTP/auth/persistence.
node --import tsx tools/verify.ts --out /tmp/dune-new-release check build integration
# Only for relevant AI/gameplay work; the existing study covers Basic base factions.
node --import tsx tools/verify.ts --out /tmp/dune-new-study base-games --games 20 --seed 20260913
Each output must be a new directory outside the checkout, with an existing parent.
It is created with private permissions. Full command output stays in step logs;
report.json records commands, exit codes, timings, HEAD and a content fingerprint
of tracked and nonignored untracked files before and after the run. Ignored local
credentials, saved games and build caches are excluded. Do not supply secrets in
command arguments. A failed child stops subsequent steps. Changed source or HEAD
invalidates a successful run; finish all source/doc edits before broad checks.
This checks the two observed snapshots, not changes made and reverted between them,
nor the contents of dependencies, ignored files or an external HTTP server.
An interrupted or incomplete report is never evidence of success.
Saved games and online backups
Reusable base and faction sample games
node --import tsx tools/faction-games.ts --out /tmp/dune-new-faction-games
# Ten genuine base samples: Basic and Advanced at each player count.
node --import tsx tools/faction-games.ts --out /tmp/dune-new-base-games --profile base
node --import tsx tools/faction-games.ts --out /tmp/dune-new-base-three --profile base --players 3 --rules advanced
node --import tsx tools/faction-games.ts --out /tmp/dune-new-combined --profile combined --rules advanced --seed 20260926
node --import tsx tools/faction-games.ts --out /tmp/dune-new-resume --resume /private/failed-combined-advanced.json
Default and --profile all retain the original six fixed CHOAM/Richese,
Ecaz/Moritani and combined Basic/Advanced samples. --profile base selects ten
additional samples: Basic and Advanced with two through six players.
--players 2..6 narrows only that base profile; omission or all retains all
five counts. The fixed base roster adds Atreides, Harkonnen, Fremen, Emperor,
Guild and Bene Gesserit in that order. These are sample rosters, not an assertion
that these are the only rules-permitted player-count configurations.
All samples use genuine setup and saved AI profiles, cycling Easy, Medium,
Hard and Brutal by seat. Smaller games necessarily contain fewer profiles;
the matrix collectively exercises all four. Filters retain each scenario's
seed offset: the original six use 0–5; base uses
6 + 2 × (players − 2) + Advanced, where Advanced is 0 or 1. --seed defaults to 20260926;
--max-actions defaults to 3500 accepted actions per game. Every action checks
physical card custody (including unsold auction cards), nonnegative integer
forces/spice, twenty-force totals and the distinct Fremen/Emperor/Ixian elite totals
and subsets. Base samples also check the exact Traitor inventory after dealing
has finished; expansion Traitor/Face Dancer zones are not certified by this
check. Every rejected candidate must leave its input unchanged. Every 37 actions
checks all private views after JSON restoration and absence of rival hand,
spice, Traitor and Face Dancer fields. Rejected candidates remain visible in private traces even when
a later candidate succeeds. Samples are development evidence, not calibration or
complete rules certification.
The output is a new private directory outside the checkout. It contains private
traces, incomplete-game snapshots, results.json and a source-bound report.json.
An incomplete game or changed source exits nonzero. Resume requires a matching
fixed base or expansion scenario snapshot with saved AI profiles and records its
SHA-256; it cannot be combined with profile/rules/player-count filters. Its action budget starts at the snapshot,
and its random stream restarts from the supplied seed plus scenario offset.
Check setup provenance against the original report: accepting a supplied snapshot
does not prove it came from genuine setup. No live room or database is accessed.
Preservation commands
node --import tsx tools/saved-games.ts snapshot --db /absolute/games.sqlite --out /private/new-baseline --backup
node --import tsx tools/saved-games.ts compare --db /absolute/games.sqlite --baseline /private/new-baseline/snapshot.json
The source database is opened read-only. Snapshots store room versions and state hashes, not private game state. New rooms are allowed; every changed or missing original room fails comparison. Legitimate human play can change a room: investigate and document it, never overwrite progress to make a comparison pass. Snapshot the current set before each maintenance operation so newly created rooms are protected. Online backup includes WAL contents and requires Node 22.16 or newer; snapshot and comparison retain the project's Node 22.13 minimum. Backup files contain private state and session records, remain outside Git, and never overwrite an earlier run. This tool does not delete, reset or restore the live database.
Authorized reset, 13 September 2026
The user requested clearing all old local games and starting a new checkpoint. With no development server running, a verified online backup preceded a single transaction deleting 3,644 rooms and cascading their seat/recovery/entry records. Schema, migrations and Wrangler state files were preserved. All five application tables were empty afterward; foreign-key validation passed.
Private archive: /home/quintine/.local/share/dune/checkpoints/20260913-before-reset/.
Fresh empty database backup and snapshot:
/home/quintine/.local/share/dune/checkpoints/20260913-fresh-baseline/.
These machine-local paths are operational records, not portable repo artifacts.
Old room IDs in historical browser evidence no longer identify active local games.
Future games must be preserved. This was a one-time user-authorized reset, not a
maintenance strategy or permission to clear future games.
Private-seat restoration
Create a private JSON file (mode 0600) outside the checkout with this structure; substitute credentials only in that private file, never in a command or tracked doc:
{"baseUrl":"http://127.0.0.1:3000","isolatedQa":true,"seats":[{"code":"ABCDEFGH","playerId":"fixture-seat-id","version":4,"token":"fixture_session_token"}]}
node --import tsx tools/restore-seats.ts --config /private/qa-seats.json
Use deliberately isolated, stable human QA rooms. The server's GET route can resume bots or automatic work, so this is not a generally side-effect-free read and must not probe arbitrary human games. Requests use loopback origins only, reject redirects and time out. Checks require the expected room, seat and version, the owning seat's private fields, and absence of selected rival private fields. No session tokens, response bodies or hands are printed. This is HTTP seat restoration, not recovery-key rotation, exact hand-content proof, a complete privacy audit or browser rendering. Pair it with saved-game comparison and feature-specific browser acceptance.
