prosolis 8cdd64b383 Phase 2 (sweep): lever-tuning sweep, negative result
Sweep the two knobs surfaced by Phases 2a/2b — retreatThreatBump
and clampSurpriseNick's wounded-entrant divisor — across a full
3×4 grid (bump ∈ {2, 5, 10} × divisor ∈ {3, 5, 8, 12}) at 200
trials/cell across every matrix zone.

Wiring is harness-only: clampSurpriseNick keeps its live shape and
delegates to a new clampSurpriseNickD(divisor) variant; the harness
profile gains RetreatThreatBumpOverride/SurpriseNickDivisorOverride
fields threaded onto expeditionHarness; resolvedRetreatBump and
resolvedNickDivisor pick override-or-live. Zero on either field
falls back to the shipped value so live runHarvestInterrupt is
untouched.

Sweep test: TestExpeditionBalance_Phase2_LeverSweep, -short skipped,
mirrors Phase2_CadenceCalibration's per-tier digest shape.

Outcome: across 24,000 trial-cells (12 lever combos × 10 zones
× 200 trials), every cell reports 0.0% completion / ~100% death.
The knobs are inert on the headline metric — even (b=2, d=12)
can't lift any tier off the floor. Confirms the post-2b
tier-lethality trace: remaining deaths are fresh-entry elite
one-shots (Warchief, Hag, Roper, Young Red Dragon), not chained-
interrupt cascades. Justifies Phase 2c (roster dilution) rather
than further tuning of these two levers.

Plan doc updated.

// Phase R3 — Combat-link integration for expeditions.
// Spec: gogobee_resource_combat_integration.md §4.
//
// Surface:
// • resolveCombatInterrupt — §4.2 d20+tier brackets for harvest interrupts.
// • runHarvestInterrupt — picks an enemy, runs combat, returns a
// narration block + endedRun flag for the caller to fold in.
// • monsterKillTags — bestiary→tag map used by the kill-log writer
// so RequiresKill resources unlock once their gating monster falls.
// • recordZoneKill — appends tags into RegionState["kills"][region].
// • tryPatrolEncounter — Threat-Clock Alert+ pre-room patrol roll.
//
// Notes / scope discipline:
// • The §4.1 "surprise round" mechanic is approximated as one free enemy
// swing before normal combat. The dnd combat engine doesn't expose a
// real surprise primitive yet, and a one-shot HP nick captures the
// intent without forking SimulateCombat. Polish lives in R6.
// • §4.1 Night Ambush integration is left to the existing wandering-
// monster system — that path is independent of !advance.

// retreatThreatBump is the threat penalty applied when the player times

// represent the player breaking off wounded — the run continues, but the
// zone's awareness ratchets up. Tuned alongside the expedition-difficulty
// pass (see gogobee_expedition_difficulty.md): low enough not to compound
// brutally with chained retreats, high enough that 34 retreats walks the
// threat clock toward Stirring.
//
// History: pre-Phase-2 the engine's timeout-loss path called
// abandonZoneRun + retireAllRegionRuns, ending the expedition outright

// That made any single fight loss across a 14-day expedition an

// across every tier. Splitting the retreat path here was Phase 2's
