Add an optional owner-controlled two-spice diversion from eligible single-payer ordinary auctions, Guild shipment income, Richese auction proceeds and actual bribes in the bounded base/CHOAM Leader Skills profile. Debit the payer once, credit the recipient once, retain bribes until Mentat Pause and restore the original response/auction/advisor callback. Decline preserves later phase opportunities; successful physical-card usage persists ownership changes. Keep qualifying allied funding and unfinished payment families explicitly guarded or outside the connected batch. Record source authority and the out-of-battle Karama composition and physical-card usage inferences; no public mode or publication gate opens. Connect readable owner controls and all four AI profiles using public payment/alliance information. Independent review found and fixed duplicate usage-event aliases and an overbroad guard on Bank-bound independent Karama shipments. Focused tests cover native/hidden/captured/dead eligibility, unchanged costs and card/force custody, normal and Richese auction callbacks, real Bene Gesserit advisor continuation, private views, JSON and production SQLite restore, stale/duplicate rejection and same-version competing writes. Validation: typecheck, lint, 4631 offline tests, production build and 43 HTTP tests passed with unchanged source. Four controlled-shuffle genuine-setup samples completed: base Basic 718 actions/20 restores, base Advanced 551/15, CHOAM Basic 681/19 and CHOAM Advanced 174/5. All had zero rejected candidates and preserved full physical Treachery, force and skill custody. None reached a Bureaucrat payment decision; these are regression-continuation samples, not natural full-game redirection acceptance. The separate conserved staged browser exercise allowed one five-spice bribe and redirected two from a second; the payer spent ten, the payee retained eight deferred spice, and one skill use was recorded. Pending and resolved states survived refresh with unchanged physical custody and private projection. After the reported outage, all 699 opening games and original seat/recovery records were preserved (733 after HTTP checks); database integrity and foreign keys passed. Reused the healthy server without restart, reset or recurring automation. Verified source tree: a30615deed306e06ab4c153b9a7eabdc92d646ed79474e348a3500d525bcb8c8

# Leader Skills first functional prototype
|
||
|
||
13 September 2026. This is **Prototyped**, with **Partial** rules coverage.
|
||
Normal mode starts and publication remain gated. The [source contract](LEADER_SKILLS_RULES.md)
|
||
contains all fourteen physical cards; the [capture interpretation](LEADER_SKILLS_CAPTURE.md)
|
||
records the fresh publisher/designer search requested by the user.
|
||
|
||
## Connected boundary
|
||
|
||
Genuine Basic or Advanced setup supports two through six base factions. Starting
|
||
Treachery Cards, including Harkonnen's extra card, precede simultaneous private
|
||
two-card skill offers. Every faction selects one physical skill and an eligible
|
||
own leader, returns the other card to the shuffled deck, and publicly assigns
|
||
the selected card before traitor choices. No reduced or duplicate skill deck is
|
||
substituted. The [No-Field follow-up](SMUGGLER_NO_FIELD.md) adds genuine CHOAM &
|
||
Richese setup for its bounded combination; remaining expansion/skill acceptance
|
||
and other optional modules remain separate work.
|
||
|
||
Human controls show each permitted card's normal and battle text, select its
|
||
leader, choose battle posture, and handle an optional own-leader revival draw.
|
||
An undrawn revival offer shows no preview; drawing obliges a selection. All four
|
||
AI profiles follow the same private offers and legal actions, prioritizing the
|
||
five battle disciplines during skill selection and hiding the assigned leader for battle. This
|
||
simple policy is not calibrated skill strategy.
|
||
|
||
Warmaster, Master of Assassins, Swordmaster of Ginaz, Killer Medic and
|
||
Prana-Bindu Adept apply +1 to another selected leader from a face-up native
|
||
trainer, or +3 to the surviving assigned leader. They use the physical card's
|
||
actual weapon or defense role, including a legally supplied Portable Snooper.
|
||
They do not grant +4 or change printed strength, leader bounty or Zoal's source
|
||
value. Existing traitor, explosion and Stone Burner precedence is preserved.
|
||
Cheap Hero receives the normal +1 through ordinary leader substitution; this
|
||
is a general-rule inference, without a separately located explicit skill FAQ.
|
||
|
||
A face-up assigned disc cannot enter a plan. Concealing it while selecting
|
||
another leader gives no skill bonus. Later Voice or card use can remove the
|
||
last alternative: the mandatory remaining skilled disc then moves behind the
|
||
shield automatically, without replaying battle powers. A surviving assignment
|
||
returns face up after battle. Death returns its physical card exactly once.
|
||
An own Ghola revival during unfinished battle preparation retains that stage
|
||
through the new private draw and public posture choice.
|
||
|
||
Harkonnen capture keeps the card attached to its original leader and publicly
|
||
shows the current captor. Only the captive's lower battle effect can apply;
|
||
neither faction receives its normal effect while captured. A surviving used
|
||
captive returns with the same card. Execution returns the card to the deck;
|
||
that unique formerly public card makes this skilled leader's identity inferable.
|
||
Other captures retain the existing privacy behavior. This narrow publicity
|
||
interpretation follows the physical component procedure, not an express
|
||
publisher instruction to announce a name.
|
||
|
||
## Missing and guarded work
|
||
|
||
[Battle-effects follow-up](LEADER_BATTLE_EFFECTS.md) connects both Rihani bands
|
||
and the lower Mentat, Bureaucrat and Sandmaster effects. A separate
|
||
[Mentat question preview](MENTAT_QUESTION.md) connects private naming/disclosure,
|
||
posture and saved history under an explicit private opt-in. The uniform mandatory
|
||
response step awaits the user's UX decision; ordinary activation remains disabled.
|
||
[Bureaucrat payment redirection](BUREAUCRAT_PAYMENTS.md) connects the ordinary
|
||
auction, shipment, Richese sale and paid-bribe families within its recorded
|
||
boundary. Other payments and split funding remain incomplete. Spice Banker
|
||
income remains missing. [Banker battle spending](SPICE_BANKER_RUNTIME.md)
|
||
now connects its lower band with separate sealed funds and survivor strength. [Smuggler shipping](SMUGGLER_SHIPMENT.md)
|
||
connects its optional normal reserve bonus and the [owned No-Field companion](SMUGGLER_NO_FIELD.md).
|
||
[Diplomat defense](DIPLOMAT_DEFENSE.md) connects its normal band for a physical
|
||
Worthless card copying a canonical base Shield or Snooper; the lower retreat
|
||
and modified-defense inheritance remain guarded. Smuggler battle collection
|
||
also remains missing.
|
||
Planetologist and Suk Graduate have the connected
|
||
prototypes described below.
|
||
|
||
Captured-card replacement entitlement remains unresolved. The prototype rejects
|
||
own-leader revival while its original skill is captured, before beginning a
|
||
paid revival or consuming the Ghola/special-Karama action. This is an explicit
|
||
unsupported boundary, not a ruling that the physical game forbids that revival.
|
||
Foreign gholas, expansion rosters and combined optional modules remain gated.
|
||
Before enabling them, add response-driven automatic revival continuation
|
||
coverage; the current before/after revival observer does not certify deferred
|
||
Tleilaxu response chains. The other source-contract timing questions also remain
|
||
open. Planetologist now has bounded movement and battle controls as described below.
|
||
Remaining normal-band payments, ordinary Mentat activation, Smuggler battle collection,
|
||
Diplomat retreat and the other guarded skill combinations still need connected
|
||
effects.
|
||
|
||
## Planetologist follow-up
|
||
|
||
[Planetologist](PLANETOLOGIST_RULES.md) connects the explicit capped range bonus,
|
||
two-origin movement to one destination, Fremen cancellation/replacement and a
|
||
surviving skilled leader's +2 green-Special substitution with mandatory discard.
|
||
The movement panel and weapon selector expose those choices; all four AI profiles
|
||
can use the same physical action paths. Pending movement receipts survive JSON
|
||
continuation and revalidate source custody before a response is spent.
|
||
|
||
Six base factions remain the supported roster. Mixed BG origins are supported
|
||
where ordinary rules determine the destination stance. Enemy-only mixed arrival
|
||
still needs a combined flip response. Expansion faction/card/module combinations
|
||
and full integrated acceptance remain unfinished. The remaining bands and skill families are
|
||
listed above; this is partial prototype coverage.
|
||
|
||
## Suk Graduate follow-up
|
||
|
||
[Suk Graduate](SUK_GRADUATE_RULES.md) connects the mandatory one-counter
|
||
normal rescue and the surviving selected leader’s optional rescue of up to three
|
||
physical casualties. Normal and elite identity, original sector, paid support,
|
||
private hands and captured-leader return survive the saved continuation. Human
|
||
controls and all four AI profiles use the same server-projected legal choices.
|
||
Advanced Atreides awaits the loss-count ruling; expansion factions and combined
|
||
optional modules remain guarded.
|
||
|
||
## Local prototype entry and evidence
|
||
|
||
Create a new base-faction local lobby, select its seats and mark them ready.
|
||
Keep its browser cookie. Use the existing backup and atomic version-check tool:
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
node --import tsx tools/start-prototype.ts --profile leader-skills \
|
||
--db PATH_TO_LOCAL_D1_SQLITE --room EIGHT_CHARACTER_CODE \
|
||
--version CURRENT_LOBBY_VERSION --out /private/new-prototype-checkpoint
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Only that fresh named lobby is initialized; every other room and all seats stay
|
||
intact. Refresh to continue through ordinary authenticated actions. No HTTP
|
||
endpoint dispatches the initializer; do not restart or reset the database.
|
||
|
||
Focused tests cover physical inventory, setup ordering, private views, all five
|
||
bonuses, Voice legality, capture and return, death, revival and JSON restoration.
|
||
SQLite tests use production room actions across restarted stores and concurrent
|
||
selection: one choice commits, the selected card has one owner, the rejected
|
||
card returns once, and private offers remain owner-only. The local prototype
|
||
writer is separately checked for stale/redeal rejection and preserved seats.
|
||
|
||
Two seeded four-player simulations (20260913 Basic; 20260914 Advanced) completed
|
||
through genuine setup in 265 and 211 accepted actions with no rejected bot
|
||
candidates. They used Easy, Medium, Hard and Brutal, checked physical skills and
|
||
forces, and restored JSON views at fourteen sampled boundaries in total.
|
||
These were first-batch runs before the later capture and Voice review fixes;
|
||
their private report fingerprints the exact files exercised. They do not prove
|
||
all fourteen effects, Harkonnen capture or every interaction was played.
|
||
|
||
A later Advanced run including Harkonnen (seed 20260915) completed in 360
|
||
accepted actions, four turns and ten sampled JSON restores, with no rejected
|
||
bot candidates. It exercised the current controller/Voice integration. Exact
|
||
captured-card outcomes are proved by the focused capture scenarios, rather
|
||
than inferred from this sample game's completion.
|
||
|
||
Browser room `REF6YHN7` was created normally with a human Atreides and Medium
|
||
Harkonnen, then initialized through the backed-up local tool. The human inspected
|
||
both effect bands, assigned Master of Assassins to Thufir Hawat, selected a
|
||
private traitor and reached Storm. Refresh retained that assignment, the AI's
|
||
Swordmaster on Feyd-Rautha, the same Snooper hand and the pending Storm dial.
|
||
Visual inspection caught two squeezed columns in the table sidebar; single-column
|
||
cards restore readable text. This was a focused desktop setup/recovery journey,
|
||
not a complete human game or mobile acceptance.
|
||
|
||
The second reported power outage stopped the development server. All 292 rooms
|
||
were present with a clean SQLite integrity/foreign-key check; the 291 opening
|
||
rooms matched their hashes. A new online backup preceded the necessary server
|
||
start. The same browser seat then restored both skills, Snooper, private Thufir
|
||
traitor, ten spice and its pending Storm decision. No database reset or old
|
||
game restoration was performed.
|
||
|
||
Checkpoint-wide check/build/HTTP results and the final source fingerprint are
|
||
recorded in the commit and private verification report. Full module and combined
|
||
game acceptance remain unfinished.
|
||
|
||
The [Sandmaster ground-movement follow-up](SANDMASTER_MOVEMENT.md) adds explicit
|
||
routes, optional collection, human/AI controls and saved cancellation. Special
|
||
relocation and combined modules remain unfinished.
