Phase 3's acceptance criterion 1, made real. Three things, one review:
**The dead bindings.** `client/src/api/client.js` still carried ~190 lines of UO
namespaces — `shard`, `atlas`, the two SSE URLs, `admin.shard/shardOps/atlas/
userShard`, the uo-link and town-crier calls, `player.shard` — with zero core
consumers since slice 3 deleted the views. module-uo vendors its own bindings.
The five assertions core's `apiClient.test.js` made about those URLs moved with
them (Module-uo#5); the encoding test that used `governorHistory` now uses a
core route.
**The copy.** Core is the platform, not one game's site, so its words are
game-neutral now: `About`, `Screenshots`, `Website`'s cards, `Status` (which was
never about a game server at all — it reports site mode), `Wiki`, `SiteFooter`,
the default hero, `brand.js`'s tagline and description, the seeded wiki
categories, and two user-visible NavEditor strings that named a module's admin
screen by its proper name. Which game an instance is for is the operator's to
say — BRAND_* vars, the hero editor, CMS pages — and every real instance already
does: `.env.uomysticmoon.example` sets both brand strings explicitly, so nothing
live changes wording. Wiki page SLUGS are untouched: `seedDefault*` only inserts
what is absent, so renaming one adds a duplicate page to every install.
Also gone: an orphan comment block in `schema.sql` describing the spawn-atlas
tables slice 1 took away, and the two settings rows core seeded for a module
(`game_account_signup`, `uo_link_protocol_3_migrated`). The second was a live
defect — see Module-uo#5, which takes ownership of both and repairs the
one-shot migration core's ordering had disabled.
**The check.** `scripts/checkModuleIdentifiers.js` + `npm run check:modules`,
first step of the server-tests job because it needs no dependencies. It reads
CODE, not prose — file names, import specifiers, route path literals, declared
identifiers and property names — per §5.2, so core's English may still say
"shard" where saying it is worth more than the word costs.
Two things it gets right only because getting them wrong was tried first: it
matches WHOLE WORDS (a substring pass flags `defaultImage`, which contains
"ultIma", four times in this repo), and it strips comments and string bodies in
one character walk (a comment contains quotes, a string contains `//`) — the
`checkImports.js` lesson. It has its own 17-test suite, because a boundary check
that silently stops checking is worse than none. The three §6.5 grandfathering
allowlists are exempt by name, and an exemption that stops matching fails the
build rather than lingering.
BREAKING CHANGE: core no longer seeds `game_account_signup` or
`uo_link_protocol_3_migrated`; module-uo's schema fragment does. An install
running core without module-uo keeps whatever rows it already has and gains no
new ones — nothing in core reads either key.
Deferred to slice 5, deliberately: README.md's 48 UO mentions, including a
`## Shard integration (uo-link)` section and the architecture diagram. That is
documentation, which §5.2 does not cover, and it belongs with the phase-closing
docs pass rather than half-done here.

Address review: the SVG footer badge rendered too small, and the default
hero should feature the Runic Gateway emblem rather than the moon.
- Footer: drop powered-by.svg; render the emblem PNG beside a "Powered by
Runic Gateway" label (left-justified, info text stays centered).
- Default hero: brand.hero (and the client fallbacks) now default to the
emblem PNG. The untouched default hero centers the square emblem behind
the text as a medallion with a symmetric legibility overlay (per-layer
background-size so the overlay stays full-bleed). BRAND_HERO still
overrides.
- Admin login / player shell / maintenance backgrounds center the emblem
as a capped medallion instead of a cropped full-bleed cover.

Ship the Runic Gateway emblem as the baked-in default favicon so an
instance renders a tab icon with no BRAND_FAVICON set, and place a
left-justified "Powered By" badge in the site footer.
- brand.favicon now defaults to /assets/img/favicon.ico (was empty).
BRAND_FAVICON still overrides per-instance.
- Add favicon.ico + powered-by.svg under client/public/assets/img.
- SiteFooter: badge pinned to the left of the centered content column
(absolute on >=641px, stacked on mobile); info text stays centered.

Replace baked-in UOM/MysticMoon/UOMysticmoon branding with a BRAND_* env
scheme so one prebuilt image runs as any shard; UOMysticmoon becomes the
first tenant that sets these vars rather than a special case in the code.
Architecture (chosen because the app ships as a prebuilt image):
- server/src/config/brand.js + bot/src/brand.js read BRAND_* once at boot,
with Runic Gateway defaults.
- Text/colors reach the SPA at RUNTIME through the existing public settings
API (settings.model.getPublic -> SiteContext), so no client rebuild. The
admin-editable site title + contact email still override BRAND_NAME/email.
- SiteContext applies BRAND_ACCENT_COLOR to the --accent CSS var at runtime.
- Express templates the built index.html <title>/description/OG/favicon at
serve time from BRAND_* (renderIndexHtml in app.js).
- Server-side consumers read brand directly: emails, TOTP issuer, API docs,
boot logs, HTML error page. Bot uses it for embed color + logs.
Assets: logo/hero/favicon delivered from a ./brand:/app/brand bind-mount
(BRAND_LOGO/HERO/FAVICON), with neutral defaults baked in; hero falls back
to a built-in image when unset.
Scope: also genericized package.json names (uomysticmoon-* -> runic-gateway-*)
and the DB_NAME/DB_USER/COOKIE_NAME code defaults (runic_gateway/runic/
rg_token). Production keeps its real values by pinning them in .env — see
.env.uomysticmoon.example, which reproduces the exact UOMysticmoon identity
(proof the substitution works). Changing a deployed COOKIE_NAME invalidates
existing sessions, so UOMysticmoon pins uomm_token.
Verified: 193 server tests pass, client builds, app.js loads + templates the
built index.html, brand transform injects title/description/OG/favicon.
