- CycleDirectorSpawnSystem: drop the dangling <see cref="CyclePhase.ExpeditionTicks"/> (deleted const in B2) -> plain 'initial phase delay'.
- BuildSendSystem: remove the stale '(Conveyor uses s_ConveyorDir for facing)' comment (field + hotkey deleted in B2).
Comment-only; 459/459 EditMode tests pass. Adversarial verification round (2 agents over the full diff) found no behavior regressions and no false-confidence tests.

Delete (unreferenced in any scene, per operator decision):
- TrainingDummy* chain (authoring/spawner/system/components/prefab) + UpgradePickup* chain (authoring/spawner/systems/components/prefab); remove TrainingDummyTag from the 3 live combat queries (AbilityFire/Melee/HealthApplyDamage now key on EnemyTag) and repoint HealthApplyDamageSystemTests to EnemyTag.
- Dead RPC RegionTransitSystem + RegionTransitRequest (no sender, ungated) + its test.
- Heartbeat + HeartbeatSystem (no WorldSystemFilter, ran no-op every tick) + its test.
- BuildSendSystem dead conveyor/pylon dev hooks (s_ConveyorDir, [/] rotation, Place{Pylon,Harvester,Conveyor} statics).
- Deprecated CyclePhase alias consts (Expedition/Defend/Build/*Ticks); repoint WaveSystemTests to Siege/Calm.
- Unread FeelConfig fields (HitFlashDurationMs, RumbleHeavy) + dangling HudUi doc-comments + stale crefs.
451/451 EditMode tests pass. CLAUDE.md HeartbeatSystemTests example ref to be repointed in B7.

Scoping/design-gated (wf_7c5a555e-136). Fixes "the base reads as inert after Phase A":
- C7b objective readout: new replicated ExpeditionObjective{[GhostField] byte State, short Remaining} on the
untagged CycleDirector ghost (cross-region safe). Sole writer ZoneEnemyDirectorSystem, written ABOVE its
early-returns (snapshot-above-early-return) so the HUD never freezes stale. Play-verified it replicates
server->client.
- C7a gate prompt + C7b HUD readout: HudSystem shows "GO TO THE EXPEDITION GATE" / "EXPEDITION IN PROGRESS - N
remaining" / "CLEARED - return to claim", below the siege/overrun overrides.
- C6a Aether upgrade button: un-gated BuildSendSystem.UpgradeAbility (was #if UNITY_EDITOR); HudSystem adds a
MenuUi.Button with live affordability tint (the only Aether sink was U-key only).
- C6c cold-start seed: CycleDirectorSpawnSystem seeds Tuning.StartingOre (50) into the ledger on a NEW game only
(born-correct, pre-Playback), killing the silent turret-before-fabricator deadlock. Play-verified seededOre=50.
- C6b Biomass sink: Wall cost Ore->Biomass (the dead currency now has a home). Play-verified WallCostRes=Biomass.
- C6d palette declutter: hide dead Pylon/Harvester/Conveyor from the build palette + trimmed their dev hotkeys
(catalog/prefabs stay baked, code-intact per DR-020).
389/389 EditMode + clean netcode Play smoke (ghost re-hash OK, no exceptions). SaveData stays v5.
C5 (walls block enemies) is the remaining Phase C item, sequenced separately.

Four playtest do-now wins:
- Enemy health bars: pooled world-space Canvas, on-damage-sticky + fade,
always-on <25% HP (CombatFeedbackSystem; no new replication).
- Telegraph fix: new baked client-safe EnemyTelegraph sizes the danger-cone ramp
per enemy (0->1 ending at impact, fixes the Charger plateau); windup 18->22;
a windup scale-pulse.
- Build-mode toggle: BuildPaletteState.PaletteOpen hides the palette by default,
Tab / gamepad-Y toggles, with a discovery chip (HudSystem/BuildSendSystem).
- Charger committed-lunge tell: [GhostEnabledBit] IsLunging derived once/tick from
LungeState (the Dead idiom); the danger cone persists through the lunge.
345/345 EditMode (+3 IsLunging derive tests); Play-validated: ghost-hash change
did not break the handshake, bake correct (telegraph on all enemies, IsLunging
baked-disabled on the Charger, replicated to client), no runtime errors.

Rebuild the in-game HUD on UI Toolkit (HudUi/HudSystem, Aether palette) consistent with the menu; build-palette bar (BuildPaletteState) drives cursor->cell ground-ghost preview (green/red via BuildPreviewMath), left-click place / right-click cancel / rotate; fire suppressed in build mode; combat juice restyle. +4 BuildPreviewMath EditMode tests.
