Standalone use too (D221), placements live on the server (D222), our own
scientist subclass and brain (D223), installer and egg ship it plus a
Gitea release and possibly other download sites (D224), per-profile
kills public and in titles (D225), edge to main (D226), no default caps
but a measured cost warning wherever NPCs are added (D227), and the
names RunicNPC, /rnpc, runicnpc.* (D228). The sections they change are
updated: standalone profiles, the console profile verb, cost warnings,
stage 1's measurements, and publishing.

The PLAN_REDESIGNS §6 spike ran on the Oxide rig on 2026-09-30. Route A
kept its kit and fought with it but cannot be named; HumanNPC counted its
NPCs as players in the killfeed and tallies; NpcSpawn worked but costs a
boot hitch, a phone-home and an unbundleable dependency. The org lead
chose to write our own API-style plugin in runicnpc-rust.
runicnpc/PLAN.md records the spike, the decisions, the features, the API,
the chat commands, and stages 0-10 with how each is tested, plus eight
questions. PLAN_REDESIGNS §6, §9 and §10 point at it; the index lists it.
