Documents order 5b across the four repos, and records what building it changed
about §8 as designed.
- NEW website/MARKETPLACE.md — the operator guide: what the pages must say out
loud and why, the privacy contract (the player's in-game Vendor Search toggle
wins, and no admin setting overrides it), the Bridge.cfg knobs and how they
trade against each other, and the measured sweep costs.
- INTEGRATION.md — catalog entry for vendor.listing / vendor.listing.remove with
its six consumer gotchas, and the GET /market REST section (the sidecar's only
paged read, and why it orders by serial rather than shop name).
- BACKEND_DESIGN.md — shard_vendors / shard_vendor_items, the routes, and the
marketplace search as the only rate-limited public read.
- SHARD_VISIBILITY.md — why the market's fields default to Everyone (the in-game
gump already shows exactly that set), why location is one setting covering
four things, and why hiding the owner name without the owner id achieves
nothing.
- PLAN.md — the amortized round-robin as the one sweep pattern the bridge did not
previously have, and an update to §7's cliloc note: pushing name resolution to
the plugin was never an option, because ServUO cannot read a modern client's
compressed cliloc files either.
- v3.md §8.8 — the four things the build settled differently, chief among them
that §8.1's FLAT location payload would have made Part A's pre-wired
market.location rule inert, exactly like the characterName miss one part
earlier.
