- USER_SAFETY.md: section 5 becomes decisions S6-S10 (an account to report,
game-identity blocks allowed, staff cannot be blocked, a block only hides,
staff see hidden chat marked).
- DEMO_MODE.md: DM33-DM35 (visibly fake 1234567890-prefixed Steam and
Discord ids plus the org lead's own Steam id; Rust-themed invented names).

- website/USER_SAFETY.md (new): report, block and hide on the website and
in the app, S1-S5 decided by the org lead, five questions open.
- android/PLAN.md: M8's three open items decided (keep the rating and add
report/block/hide; conservative data safety; UnifiedPush on specialUse
with restart on boot), the order to the cutover, and M21 (Teams and the
team forum in the app, planned, not scheduled).
- website/DEMO_MODE.md: DM32 and section 11, the demo content plan (two
seed passes; moderation, Teams/forum/reports, event history, Rust stats).

The 12:00 UTC wipe on 2026-10-28 installed Module-Rust v0.6.3 (its first run
tagged v0.6.2 and failed to publish it). play-review walked 19/19, the seeded
events' actions came up enabled and Server greeting ran, and both Steam
unlinks answer 403 DEMO_LOCKED with the link kept.

DM27 locks removing a Steam link on the demo (player route by demoLocks,
staff route in its handler); DM28 has seed:demo switch on the actions the
seeded events use; DM29 leaves SECRET_WORDS as is. The Chrome problem was
local to the walker's PC, and play-review is walked once the fixes land.

Every lock through the API (87 checks), the console deny list at save on the
demo and at run on a local core, the three published logins in the browser,
the app on the public HTTPS address, and one wipe cycle restoring a changed
config, permission, NPC placement, event and hero draft. Lists what the walk
found: seeded events whose actions start disabled, the credential check
over-flagging, play-review not walked, the open Steam unlink, empty
moderation queues.

The first restored wipes brought the default set's permissions back but
not its NPC profiles (the restored rig is marked managed, so a fresh site
adopts none and its first push empties them) or its chat titles (never
adopted). §7.1 records the exception, §7.3 the fixture's new npcs and chat
keys, step 5 of §7.3 the NPC push, §9.1 DM26, and §10 step 5 the default
set, the baseline, the restored wipes and the public URL (Cloudflare set to
DNS only so the app logs the real visitor).

DEMO_MODE.md §3.3 gets the data: URI rule (a pasted image is an upload),
§9.1 records DM25, and §10 step 5 records the first wipes: the rig half
worked, and the seed loaded no module because the runner's chown of
modules/ and logs/ failed silently. BACKEND_DESIGN.md §5.1 mirrors the rule.

DEMO_MODE.md follows website#227:
- §7.2: the baseline is captured with a power stop (quit saves), DM22; a
first wipe with no baseline only starts the rig; what the panel calls
were checked to do (synchronous decompress, binary-safe write); the
server identifier is now 6eb9d621.
- §7.3: MODULES comes from state/modules.env; MODULE_SOURCE_HOSTS seeds a
fresh database's allowlist; the exact seed:demo command.
- §7.5: where the bundle is recorded (state/bundle.json and the rig's own
rust-link/bundle.json) and which plugin files the wipe writes.
- §8: the deploy directory and the full .env contents.
- §9.1: DM22 (power stop), DM23 (/opt/demo.runicgateway.com, host mode),
DM24 (Module-Rust cut over now, v0.6.0).
- §10: step 5's files built and how each half was tested.

DM18 (org lead, 2026-10-24): core's event save never asked a module
about a step's params, so the console-command deny list's save-time
refusal is a new core hook, demoRefuses(params), asked at create, save
and publish on the demo. MODULE_API 1.19.0.
- DEMO_MODE.md: §3.4 says where the save-time check lives; DM18 row;
step 2 marked built (website#224, Module-Rust#62) with the module's
bridge recognition and fail-closed rules; the Rust fixture section.
- MODULE_API.md: 1.19.0 in §1.1, the changelog, the registerEventActions

- DEMO_MODE.md: DM15 (onDemoSeed), DM16 (POST /auth/register locked), DM17
(sessions route locked outright on a demo account). It also covers the settings
keys that reach a Tier A lock, how demo accounts are recognised, failing
closed, the published logins, the toast, the seed's fixture shape and $env,
and the fact that there is no seeded team (Teams come from the rig's clans).
The §3.2 example drops the config-file POST that DM14 opened. Step 1 is
marked built.
- MODULE_API.md: 1.18.0. demoLocks in module.json, ctx.demoMode, and
api.onDemoSeed, which must upsert because it runs on every seed.
- BACKEND_DESIGN.md: §5.1 demo mode, and demo_state in the settings table.

Visitors may read and change every plugin config except the bridge's: the
editor's save reloads through the bridge (with rollback, D178/D179), not
the console, and the wipe restores oxide/config. The RunicGateway plugin's
files are refused for reading as well as writing and left out of the file
list, because they hold credentials for talking to the sidecar directly.
Because the editor masks secret fields only in the form today, the demo
also redacts flagged values server-side, makes them read-only, refuses
raw-JSON saves, and leaves the sidecar URL out of the Servers admin view.

DM11: console-command steps keep running on the demo except a deny list
(quit/restart, oxide.unload/reload, rcon.*, fps.limit, server.tickrate),
matched on the normalised first word (global. stripped, o. mapped to
oxide.) and enforced by the module at save and at run behind a new
ctx.demoMode.
DM12: "latest" follows the Rust bundle for the rig's plugins and sidecar,
the newest Module-Rust release on the same protocol (a new protocol field
in its install manifest, which core's installer ignores), and the website
main image. If nothing matches yet, the wipe keeps the previous set.
DM13: only settings stay open. The org lead created the Pterodactyl
subuser and added PTERODACTYL_CLIENT_KEY.

The org lead's answers of 2026-10-23: demoLocks in module.json, settings
open, the rig open but reset each cycle through Pterodactyl, content open
with uploads locked hard, the Oxide rig as the demo's, a stand-in Steam
link, every 2 hours, files in website/, latest versions, and every lock at
the server route level.
Adds the rig reset (§7.1-7.2): the site's first sync imports what is on
the rig (D198, D244), so the rig is restored from a baseline archive
before the site relinks, and that first import is the reset. Adds the
hard upload rule (any multipart body refused). Three follow-ups: F1
console-command steps, F2 "latest" across the bundle, F3 reading of DM2.

The design for website#222, before any code: one DEMO_MODE flag on the
normal image that locks destructive writes with a 403 DEMO_LOCKED, four
published static logins, no outbound mail/push/Discord, a banner with the
next reset time, and a scheduled wipe on the demo-site runner (drop the
volumes, redeploy, seed accounts + the rig link + content).
Tier A locks are listed route by route. Nine questions for the org lead
(module lock declaration, the rig, visitor content, rig sharing with
walks, the stand-in Steam link, cadence, where the files live, version).

- PLAN_REDESIGNS 14.3.4: no manual retry for Dangerous Treasures (Q39,
W20); 11.4: which hook rbevent setowner raises (W23); 9.1 status.
- PLAYER_WALK: rows 2.2, 2.8 and 2.9, Before you start item 8 (BetterChat

rows. Rows that already passed are left out. B-only rows and the phone

NightVision as the perk plugin.
PLAN_REDESIGNS §9.1 and STEAM_SIGNIN §8 point to the new section.
STEAM_SIGNIN §8 also records Module-Rust#53, the core pin moved to

The org lead answered STEAM_SIGNIN.md's Q1-Q4 on 2026-10-19 and ruled on
the conflict they raise together:
- D392 a Steam account linked on the site is a linked Rust player (Q1)
- D393 unlinking Steam removes only the sign-in identity (Q2)
- D394 Steam needs a Steam Web API key to be enabled (Q3)
- D395 Steam never signs anybody up (Q4)
- D396 a Steam link whose id is another account's Rust link is refused
The build section follows: the key is required, the identity row keeps the
persona name and avatar, and MODULE_API 1.17.0 adds a pre-link check (which
can only refuse) and a linked hook, with no unlink hook. PLAN_REDESIGNS
tables the three decisions Module-Rust builds to and points §15 at them.
The build goes on the website's edge and ships in the cutover in progress.

spike findings, the rig run, twelve settled-in-code points), a D385 walk
row in §16.9, pointers from the status paragraph, §9 and §10.

Records the Asset Bridge `edge -> main` cutover: §16's 9b row, §17.15's four
org-lead decisions, and the `PARSER_VERSION` correction those forced through
§7, §10.4 and `SPAWN_ATLAS.md`.
## The number had to move, and the reason generalises
§10.4 wrote phase 7's canonical-read-order bump as `PARSER_VERSION` 4 -> 5.
`main` had meanwhile bumped 4 -> 5 for the `UniqueId` fix and RELEASED it as
v1.2.2. Same number, different derivation. An install that imported under
v1.2.2 stores 5, so a phase-7 build also declaring 5 is read as current by
`currentParser` and never re-reads -- the exact failure the constant exists to
prevent, reached through a merge instead of through forgetting to bump.
Two long-lived branches bumping one counter for different reasons is a defect
the counter cannot see; only the merge can. The docs now carry both meanings --
5 as main's released one, 6 as phase 7's -- rather than collapsing them.
## The cutover is five repos
`installer`'s `edge` carried 9a's `libgdiplus` `doctor` check, and
`SHARD_PREREQS.md` on `main` had been describing that check as existing since
phase 1. §16's 9b row named four repos and would have left an operator-facing
doc naming a check in no released binary.

The Asset Bridge's docs pass, and the acceptance walk that shaped it (v8.md §16
row 9a, §17.13-14). Phase 9 is three legs now: this one, the edge->main cutover,
and the site.
## INTEGRATION.md had stopped at 6 and contradicted itself
Its §2 said "the current version is 6" above examples already carrying
`X-UOLink-Version: 8`, there was no protocol-7 paragraph, and `assets.` appeared
zero times in 1,306 lines. It is the only document an integrator outside this org
has, so it is carried the whole way: the version block corrected, v7 (the event
plane's command half) and v8 (the asset plane) written, a §5 section for the five
routes, 425/422 in the status table, and a caveat that the asset plane is a
working set rather than a stream.
Protocol 7's absence is the Events workstream's debt rather than this one's, but
it cannot be stepped over on the way to 8.
## The operator-facing half
`UPGRADE_NOTES.md` gains the entry an operator reads when this ships: what
changed, the one required action on a Linux host, and the thing that will not
announce itself -- nothing here happens on a restart, so a patched client keeps
serving the old pictures until somebody presses a button.
`installer/INSTALL.md` gains libgdiplus as a prerequisite row and the `doctor`
row that checks it. The index rows for SPAWN_ATLAS and CLILOCS described the
workflows this protocol deleted; v8.md now has an index row of its own, and v7 is
marked as the released protocol.
## The walk
Wiped every asset row and every imported sprite, then walked it as a new
operator: 1,095 portraits in 3.18 s, 67,496 names in 1.42 s, 313 item pictures in
1.38 s, the atlas over the bridge in ~2.0 s, an Update with no drift answered in
0.99 s. Bestiary portraits are the right animals by eye; the marketplace shows
hued item art with cliloc names.
It found two defects (§17.14) and one cutover hazard: module-uo's `edge` is
behind its `main`, missing #35, so the walk measured 0 of 6,455 spawners carrying
a UniqueId. 9b's row says to sync before merging or the cutover ships a
regression.

v8.md section 12.2 records the admin surface as built: one page, Admin -> Client
Files, over the creature catalogue, item and land art, and the cliloc table --
one page because they come off one client install and change on one event. The
four decisions are written down, including the one that kept the phase to a
single repo: section 14's "activity view" is the last import's own summary
rather than a filtered feed, which would have needed a core activity filter, a
`ctx.activity.list` helper and a MODULE_API bump to re-read rows the panel can
keep itself.
The part worth reading twice is what the walk found. Two of the three defects
were DELETIONS, both predate phase 8, and neither was reachable by a test that
did not already suspect them:
* the body import diffing its manifest against every family's rows, so 313
item pictures were staged for deletion under a sentence that was wrong about
what had happened;
* an approved vanish unlinking the sprite and keeping the row, so the key came
back for review forever and the count never moved.
The rule they share is now stated: after phase 5, `shard_assets` is three
collections in one table, and every read of it that feeds a decision has to say
which one it means. Two of the three that did not were deletions.
CLILOCS.md and SPAWN_ATLAS.md now name the button that exists (Admin -> Client
Files) instead of the one they promised, and modules/uo/API.md records that a
`needsReview` reply carries each vanished key's picture.

10 said the shard would serve `tree/<label>` -> bytes. Measured against a stock
57.4 tree it cannot: Spawns/trammel.xml is 4.03 MB, the sidecar discards any
inbound line over 1 MiB, and that file as one base64 row is 5.4 MiB. It would be
dropped, time out, and be re-requested forever with no error in it anywhere --
and two files on a STOCK tree are in that state.
10.1 records the three carriages measured before anything was written, and why
the winner is not the smallest one: whole-file gzip is 1.21 MB against chunked
gzip's 1.26 MB and is bounded by nothing, so it works on every tree anyone would
test and fails on the first one nobody did. The chunk is the guarantee; the
compression is only the saving.
10.2: it is a `tree` family on assets.fetch, not 14's separate tree.* commands
-- phase 5's registry already owns the single slot, the envelope, the ceiling
and the mid-import guard, so reusing it left `link` with nothing to do for the
third phase running. Its CONSENT is its own, though: Bridge.TreeEnabled, because
declining to serve an EA-licensed client is not the same as declining to serve
the spawn files an operator wrote, and the atlas would have been the casualty.
10.3 records the two defects and which harness found which. An empty `catalog`
is not an absent one. And GZipStream writes nothing at all for zero bytes of
input, which stock ServUO's two empty decoration files walk straight into -- an
offline probe called that a success, because .NET's own decompressor reads an
empty stream as empty data and the declared length and hash both agree with it.
Only a live walk through a reader on another runtime disagreed.
10.4: one canonical read order, because the decoration index keeps the first
item id it sees and the two readers agreed by coincidence rather than by
construction. PARSER_VERSION 4 -> 5.
10.5 has the end-to-end numbers against a live shard. 17 gains the phase's three
decisions, including the one that departed from the recommendation: boot never
calls the shard, so an install on the bridge has no automatic refresh at all.
SPAWN_ATLAS.md is rewritten around the two sources and stops requiring a shared
filesystem. Protocol stays 8; EXTRACTOR_VERSION stays 3.

§16 planned deep animation keys and a bulk-fill switch. Measuring first changed
the phase: a complete one-direction animation set is 174,453 frames / 281.5 MB
(not the ~119,000 / ~117 MB §11 estimated), every frame carries its own centre
and 23,818 of 26,274 actions have frames of differing size — and the site
displays still pictures. So none of it was built (§11.2, org lead 2026-09-11);
`body/<id>/a<n>/f<k>` stays named in §5 and refused in practice.
§4.10 is what the walk found instead. A body's actions are a contiguous band and
the next body's begin immediately after, so one action past the ceiling is a real
record of another creature: 643 of 795 legacy bodies pass every check there and
452 are byte-identical to body+1's action 0. `Animations.GetAnimLength` is not
the ceiling — it disagrees with the index arithmetic on one body of this client,
by nine actions.
What shipped: the 73 bodies with no art at action 0 (a horse at `body/820/a23`),
the catalogue key carrying its action, the atlas join that reads it instead of
hardcoding `a0`, and the ceiling that makes the fallback walk safe. Catalogue
1,022 -> 1,095; EXTRACTOR_VERSION 2 -> 3; protocol stays 8.
