Original milestone dates · UTC
The current Workbench brings together 21 recording pairs and 20 passive adviser rows across 127 routes.
Reviewed scopeThe offline Darin example reaches the Baulro objective and refuses a further goal outside its bounded packet.
Reviewed scopeService dispatch and pending settlement preserve the exact actor object through the offline trip example.
Reviewed scopeThe adviser adds comparison and bounded imports while retaining unavailable observations and unverified import provenance.
Reviewed scopeReviewed goal, history and advisory consumers are connected in offline fixtures without claiming native membership effects.
Reviewed scopeAn ordinary failure in one event callback is contained so later events can still be attempted.
Reviewed scopeThe Workbench catalogue grew to 12 reviewed recording pairs across its then-current 95 routes.
Historical scopeFive recording pairs exercise conserving purchases and competing buyers using explicit fixture transport and both-party readback.
Reviewed scopeFive fixture recording pairs connect finite planning with reviewed decision examples while keeping missing native observations unavailable.
Reviewed scopeTwo reviewed quest recording examples became inspectable through the initial Workbench recording integration.
Historical scopeThe disposable harness was reviewed for source preservation, dependency isolation and bounded child lifetimes.
Reviewed scopeSaved runtime state and operator completion were exercised together in controlled offline scenarios.
Reviewed scopeThe operator path preserves a one-start rehearsal, deterministic lifecycle replay and a handoff that does not launch the game.
Reviewed scopeMovement service stop handling was corrected and reviewed with the preserved service scenarios.
Reviewed scopeThe movement controller distinguishes a completed session from admission and retirement cases that must remain on hold.
Reviewed scopeRetrospective · Prepared 5 October 2026
Prepared October 5, 2026. This retrospective follows the work from controlled identity and movement foundations into earned progression, evidence-aware decisions, and a Workbench that lets us inspect the results. The original milestone dates are retained below.
Historical contextThe foundation work made lifecycle boundaries clearer: who an operation belongs to, when it may start or stop, and which saved observations can safely support the next step.
Historical contextThe progression work connects source-lawful quests, hunting, acquisition and gear choices while keeping actual rewards and assets separate from plans and intent.
Historical contextThe decision work makes personas and social choices depend on current evidence, while preventing expired promises, old revisions or contradictory observations from becoming fresh facts.
Historical contextThe Workbench turns retained observations and recording examples into something we can inspect and compare, without turning an unavailable actor state or passive adviser suggestion into a gameplay success.
Historical contextThe remaining work is to connect accepted evidence to dependable reporting and preserve recoverability before any retirement or broader activation.
Historical contextResearch and held work appear as context in the retrospectives. They do not establish accepted implementation, publication or complete historical coverage.
