Boss-only tuning at the L15/L16 mid-range (D8-f #2 had tested T5 at the L12
floor where everything walls). The two T5 zones needed opposite treatment:
- dragons_lair (infernax): impossible wall, leaders 0-2% -> HP 546->405,
AC 22->20, frightful-presence stun 0.80->0.40, multiattack 49->42.
- abyss_portal (belaxath): leader faceroll 88-92% -> HP 262->300, AC 19->20,
multiattack 40->41.
Final n=50: leaders 61% at L15 (both zones), 72-79% at L16 -- same
leaders-define-band shape as T4; casters ~0% (J3 caster-track gap, not
monster-tunable). Bosses are the sole binding lever (every run decided at the
boss; standard/elite pools already survivable).
Also harden handleFightCmd: a malformed bestiary entry with an empty ID was
silently persisting an enemy-less combat session that spun to autoDriveCombat's
200-round cap. Now treated as a bestiary miss (fail loud). Writeup:
sim_results/t5_findings.md (gitignored).
Prod autopilot resolved boss/elite fights inline via SimulateCombat, which
swings the enemy once per round (Combatant has no ID to look up the SRD
multiattack profile). Manual !fight uses the turn engine, which loops the
full profile — so autopilot players faced strictly weaker bosses than
manual. D8-e confirmed this is the gap, not a turn-engine artifact.
- Promote the sim's autoResolveCombat/simPickCombatAction to shared plugin
methods autoDriveCombat/pickAutoCombatAction (single source of truth; the
sim now calls the same code prod does).
- Add MessageContext.Silent + a replyDM helper; the turn-engine combat
handlers route their DMs through it so the background autopilot can drive
the real !fight/!attack engine without spamming a DM per round (the EoD
digest summarizes the outcome).
- tryAutoRun now calls runAutopilotWalkDriven (inlineBossCombat flipped
true->false): walk->fight->walk loop so one tick still covers ~autoRunRoomCap
rooms, but boss AND elite now face the player's full kit against the
enemy's full multiattack. Loss surfaces as stopEnded (run already
force-extracted by finishCombatSession).
Trash mobs stay on the fast inline path. GOGOBEE_SIM_INLINE_BOSS=1 A/B
toggle preserved. Build + plugin tests green; sim smoke-run unchanged.
The live turn engine only struck once per fight and never rolled pet
deflect or whiff, so pet armor (deflect-only) bought nothing in real
runs. Roll pet attack each player turn and roll deflect/whiff per enemy
turn, mirroring the auto-resolve engine; retire the one-shot pet-proc
machinery (rollCombatSessionPetProc / PetProcReady).
(cherry picked from commit a0e41c97801e500efad13c7e9a06be4c345e464e)
On an expedition the autopilot drives the walk, so the manual Elite/Boss
fight close-outs and per-room next-room lines pointed players at the wrong
surface (`!zone advance` instead of `!expedition run`). Route every
"keep moving" prompt through continueHint(), which picks the verb by mode.
Special-case the boss victory to read as the expedition win.
(cherry picked from commit 30b51b91445f3bb9680cd252df6c761e3ce61d0a)
Run-loss paths (turn-based elite/boss death + flee, exploration combat
death/retreat, interrupt/patrol death) abandoned the zone run but left
the wrapping expedition row at status='active', so the ambient ticker
kept DMing about a dungeon the player had walked away from.
Adds forceExtractExpeditionForRunLoss helper and wires it into every
run-loss site; ambient ticker also skips when the expedition's run is
no longer active as a safety net.

B4: Slot classifier no longer treats "Springing" / "Snaring" / "Devouring"
as ring matches; tokenises by word boundary instead of raw substring.
Adds DnDSlotCloak so cloaks/capes/mantles/wings stop evicting body armor
from the chest slot. Regenerated magic_items_srd_data.go: boots_of_*,
gloves_of_missile_snaring, bag_of_devouring, talismans, and 6 cloaks all
land in the right slot.
R4: equipMagicItem swap-back returns the prior occupant at full Value
instead of half — swapping a curio shouldn't tax it.
R5: Attunement count is recomputed *after* the swap-back so freeing the
prior occupant's bond opens the slot for the incoming item.
R1: Inventory tags magic_item rows with 🔮 + rarity label and prints a
single equip-magic footer when any are present.
R6: Sheet's Magic Items block marks unbonded items as **(inactive)**
with the reason (cap full vs unbonded), so over-cap items aren't silent.
R7: New activeMagicItemsLine surfaces a one-shot "your curios stir: …"
at combat-start in both the dungeon path and !fight, mirroring the way
class passives are surfaced.
R8/R9: dropMagicItemLoot pretty-prints rarity, drops "wondrous", calls
attunement "needs bonding", appends "auto-uses in combat" for
potions/scrolls, and routes persistence errors to slog instead of
leaking %v into chat.
R2/R3: Curios shelf now shows "Very Rare" not "very_rare", drops the
bare "wondrous" word (the effect line carries it), renders the codified
magicItemEffectSummary above the SRD desc, and ends with a one-line
plain-language "what is bonding" footnote.
R10: Curios stock day flips at 06:00 UTC instead of midnight so EU
players don't see a fresh shelf at 1 a.m. mid-session.
R11: Curios buy resolver disambiguates fuzzy matches — typing "ring"
when several rings are on the shelf lists candidates instead of
silently selling the first.
P1: Greeting grid pairs Curios with an Exit chip so the 2-column
emoji layout doesn't dangle.
P2: Equip-magic empty state trimmed to one line.
P4 (back-from-curios reprompt) deferred — the existing back-flow is
correct, just verbose; not worth the surface-area expansion this
session.
Tests: word-boundary classifier, cloak/chest coexistence, full-value
swap-back. go test ./... + go vet clean.
Drops D&D-handbook syntax from the player-facing caster UX in favor of
verbs and feelings (per feedback_accessibility_over_dnd_crunch).
R12 — Drop "Spell DC: N / Spell Atk: +N" line from the spellbook view.
The numbers are pure handbook noise; the engine still computes them.
R13 — renderSlotLine swaps "L1 3/4 · L2 1/3" for "Level 1 ●●●○ · Level 2
●○○○". Filled bullets = energy left, hollow = spent.
R14 — Caster passive Description strings rewritten outcome-first: no
"+5%", no "scaled by your Charisma". Verbs and texture instead. All ten
class passives reworded; mechanics in applyClassPassives unchanged.
R18 — Class menu drops the "(d8, INT/WIS)" suffix → "**Mage** — INT &
WIS". The HP-die number was leaking implementation. !setup class confirm
line gets the same treatment.
P5 — Spellbook headers: "Cantrip" → "Cantrips", "L1" → "Level 1".
P6 — Cast queue line: "_(upcast to L2)_" → "_(empowered)_". Queued-line
in the spellbook view follows suit — drops "(L2 slot)" for "(empowered)"
when the slot is above the spell's base level.
P8 — Comment-convention marker added to dnd_passives.go and
dnd_subclass_combat.go file headers: `// internal note (not user-facing)`
flags Phase 2/3 tuning history so future codegen doesn't lift it into
Description / Flavor strings.
P9 — Spellbook line drops the duplicate "(can learn N more)" trailer —
the "%d / %d" already conveys remaining capacity.
Bonus cleanup. The two Arcane-Trickster slot-ceiling errors ("Arcane
Trickster L5 only has up to L1 slots.") and the "No L1 slot available"
out-of-energy messages get the same jargon scrub: "At level 5, your
Arcane Trickster magic only reaches level-1 spells." / "You're out of
level-1 energy."
Tests. Full plugin suite green; no test pinned the old strings.
Pet attacks were never resolved in turn-based fights. Roll the proc once
at fight start (a per-round roll would make a proc near-certain over a
long manual fight), persist it on the session so suspend/resume and
reaper auto-play honor the same outcome, and land a single pet hit on
the player's first acting turn.

Replace the MVP turn-based round renderer with RenderTurnRound, which
reuses the full auto-resolve narrative pools for shared combat events so
TwinBee's voice is identical across both engines. Only the four
turn-specific actions (flee, spell_held, spell_cast, use_consumable) get
new pools.

CombatStatuses now mirrors every persistent combatState one-shot —
depleting resources (ward/spore/reflect/autocrit/arcane-ward/heal-
charges), once-per-fight class/race/subclass flags, and accumulated
buff stat deltas. resumeTurnEngine restores them; commit writes them
back in place. Fixes turn-based bugs where Orc rage, Halfling Lucky
reroll, and the Assassin first-attack bonus re-fired every round and
Abjuration Arcane Ward did nothing.
Buff spells and buff-type consumables (ward/atk/def/crit/spore/reflect/
auto-crit) are now usable mid-fight: a flattened-delta model diffs the
reused applySpellBuff/ApplyConsumableMods math against a throwaway
combatant, folds the marginal effect into the session, and re-applies
the persistent stat deltas onto the rebuilt player each round. Pure-
utility spells diff to nothing and are refused before a slot is spent.

Turn-based Elite/Boss fights gain !cast and !consume as player-turn
actions, so casters and item-users make decisions per round instead of
pre-queuing a single effect. The command handler validates and resolves
the spell/item into a pre-rolled turnActionEffect; the engine just
applies the HP deltas and flows on into the enemy turn.
Scoped to effects that resolve within the casting round: damage, heal,
and control spells, plus heal/flat-damage consumables. Buff and utility
spells and buff-type consumables are refused without spending the
resource — they need cross-round stat persistence, a later sub-phase.

Routes Elite/Boss rooms off the auto-resolve SimulateCombat path and onto
the persisted turn-based engine. !zone advance now stops at an Elite/Boss
doorway; the player engages with !fight, then resolves one full round per
!attack / !flee. A won CombatSession is the record that the room's combat
is done, so a fresh !zone advance clears the room and advances the graph.
- buildZoneCombatants: shared player/enemy Combatant builder extracted from
runZoneCombat; combatantsForSession rebuilds the pair from a session row.
- runCombatRound loops the phase state machine through a whole round;
finishCombatSession runs HP/XP/loot/kill/threat/mood close-out.
- getCombatSessionForEncounter lets the room resolver tell "already won"
apart from "not yet fought".
- !zone advance/enter/go blocked while a session is active.
- resolveBossRoom deleted (dead after the reroute).
