Quintine 4a0b1ee00a Verify native Advanced full-plan card interactions
Replace the Basic-then-flip battle fixture with actual Advanced setup and add
five tests covering Truthtrance, Voice, ordinary Prescience, Ghola preparation,
private inspection and interrupted decisions. No runtime changes were needed.
Keep the special offer deadline and target-first ordering explicitly provisional.

Update the development maintenance policy per the user's instruction: restart
only when a change or observed server condition warrants it, preserving saves
and verifying restoration. No hourly schedule or recurring automation.

Validation: npm run check passed: types, lint and all 4,205 offline tests
(124.980 seconds). Source fingerprint:
5792403ddfed7ea7f4e0b247d367e7c000dfce6c81e1553204d9c00db376c3f6.
Private report: 20260913-full-plan-final/report.json.
Earlier build and HTTP evidence are reused for unchanged runtime code.
Independent source/test review found no actionable defect in this boundary.
Browser AZC4HGLB covers human inspection and Medium AI Ghola preparation,
desktop/phone readability and private refresh after the completed restart.
The earlier inventory seat also restored; all 64 saved room versions/hashes
remain unchanged. No mode or publication gate is opened.

Aggregate goal counters: 59,151,671 at batch start to 59,509,237 after completed
verification, or 357,566 tokens before final Git and new goal-steering overhead.
One bounded workhorse helper reused for source and independent test review;
one stable broad check. This is an audit batch, not a new gameplay capability.

# Three-milestone efficiency pilot
Preserve the complete game scope and required checks. Use small relevant reads,
coherent feature batches, selective subagents and compact verification artifacts.
Git remains mandatory: review, verify, commit, push and confirm remote success at
each finished implementation checkpoint. Never force-push or commit credentials.
The removed recurring automation stays removed.
| Milestone | Deliverable | Measurement |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 1: setup | Current status, decision index, reusable checks, saved-game snapshots/backups and HTTP seat restoration | Accepted checkpoint `6e26ba5`. Aggregate counters 57,957,554 → 58,124,416: 166,862 tokens including planning, coordination and the user-requested save reset. Two bounded helpers. Fifteen added regressions; 4,177 offline tests passed. Three broad attempts: two stopped before tests on type/lint errors; final check passed in 130.147s. One cancellation defect found and fixed in review. |
| 2: core readiness batch | Typed Advanced reserve-shipment commitments without Guild or optional modules | Accepted checkpoint `32791ed`. Aggregate counters 58,124,416 → 58,695,053: 570,637 tokens. Two bounded helpers: regression implementation and independent rules/privacy review. Fifteen added tests; 4,192 offline and 40 HTTP tests plus build passed. One stable broad run; focused checks resolved setup mistakes and two review findings before it. Two browser rooms verified distinct AI and human paths. Pending Guild settlement remains explicit. |
| 3: next dependency batch | Truthtrance total hand size and primary-role counts, controls, bots and recovery | Accepted checkpoint `7454456`. Aggregate counter 58,695,053 → 59,144,653 at completed verification: 449,600 tokens, before final Git/push overhead. Two workhorse-model helpers for regression implementation and independent review. Reused count panel and SQLite fixtures; eight added tests and expanded recovery cases. Two copy issues fixed before the single stable broad run: 4,200 offline tests, build and 40 HTTP tests passed. One browser room covered combined roles, total size, invalid input and phone refresh. |
The aggregate counter may update only between turns. Record a confirmed endpoint
when available rather than estimating missing usage. It includes coordination and
conversation overhead and is not a dollar-cost meter. Different capability sizes
limit direct comparisons; do not promise a savings percentage from this setup.
Do not count tests alone as accepted faction or mode completion. Scripts consolidate
existing checks; broad checks still run once source/review is stable and repeat if
subsequent changes or failures justify them. Browser fixtures remain feature-specific;
the reusable HTTP restoration helper does not automate browser setup or visual QA.
Milestone 2 cost more than the tooling baseline and cannot establish a saving.
Its larger rules/interaction scope, browser setup and context recovery contribute
to that total. Milestone 3 was smaller and reused more existing structure; its lower
count cannot isolate the effect of model choice or establish a savings rate.
Avoid repeatedly loading old audits. Three different deliverables alone cannot
support a reliable percentage estimate.
For initial planning, allow roughly **450,000–575,000 aggregate tokens for a
similarly sized reviewed gameplay batch**, based on milestones 2 and 3. This is a
low-confidence planning estimate, not a dollar quote, token-budget setting or a
reason to stop required work. Larger interaction sets need a revised estimate.
The tooling baseline was about 167,000 and is not a gameplay cost target. Reassess
after the next few comparable batches, including defects found after acceptance.
Next adjustment: use the owner plus one bounded helper for source research and
independent review when the existing implementation needs verification. Reuse
the same helper for its follow-up review, existing fixtures and applicable checks.
Avoid adding runtime code merely to make an audit appear to be implementation.
The full-plan interaction audit starts at aggregate counter 59,151,671, uses that
one-helper pattern and changes tests/documentation. It therefore requires the
full offline check, but can reuse the unchanged application's earlier build;
browser/restart acceptance supplies direct recovery evidence.
Check account usage after each verified checkpoint. The user explicitly confirmed
the stop point as **80% weekly usage consumed (20% remaining)**. Keep the goal
unfinished when stopping for usage, preserve Git and subagent requirements, and
leave the removed recurring automation absent. After `32791ed`, usage was 3% used.
Use [current status](CURRENT_STATUS.md), [rule decisions](RULE_DECISIONS.md) and
[verification workflow](VERIFICATION_WORKFLOW.md) as short entry points. Historical
logs remain references, not mandatory full-context input on every turn.
