Playtest of the single-arena slice (Scratch Notes 6152026) found it stale fast.
Answer the post-END-2 Decision Gate as continue/expand: re-scope off the fixed
June-30 demo to a co-op roguelite-ARPG — base = persistent buildable hub (never
resets), the procedural Expedition region = the required combat spine, two classes
(Warrior/Ranger), persistent meta (SaveData v6 later). Mission-as-Sortie model:
fulfils locked pillar #4, preserves the never-a-run-reset pillar; reverses DR-031's
expedition pause. Backed by an 8-agent design+feasibility pass (feasibility GREEN:
server-spawns-ghosts removes seed replication). Slice doc archived/superseded.
See DR-037.

Path A spine COMPLETE (14/14): Backlog SL-3 blocker cleared + marked done; Path_to_Fun END-2 done + banner; Milestones END-2 row. CLAUDE.md gains the END-2 gotcha line (replicate the outcome, don't client-derive; SiegeTimeout off during the final), net-zero via EB-1/EB-2/END-1/M7/inventory/build-grid condensations (40,445 then 40,510 w/ history note, under the 40,960 limit). DR-036 + session log capture the design, the operator forks (halt+banner, Target=4, SaveData v5), and the pre-coding + post-impl adversarial reviews.

Bring the living docs up to 2026-06-08 reality (Milestones/Backlog/Home/Systems_Index were stalled at 2026-06-06): add the 6 missing Milestones rows (animation, enemy animation, HUD Synty skin, world redo, world collision, Inventory+Equipment Phase 0/1); declutter Backlog to open-work-only (remove shipped [x] items whose context lives in their DRs/session logs, resolve items completed by later slices, surface Inventory/Equipment Phase 2-4 as next); refresh Home links (DR range -> DR-027, latest sessions); add a Systems_Index Items/Inventory/Equipment section + fix the stale 'StructureType 2-4 reserved for M7' note + a pointer to systems documented only in their DRs.
Reconcile DR-026's roadmap (mark Phase 0/1 done; the Phase-1 line now carries the DR-027 event-driven supersession note). Trim Data_Driven_Abilities resolved open-questions + fix cross-links. DRs + session logs (the historical record) untouched apart from that one DR-026 note.

Add BefourStudios SciFi environment packs, Gabriel Aguiar VFX, and the
ShaderCrew Toon Shader embedded packages, plus combat/enemy/wave/death
gameplay systems and supporting vault docs/screenshots.
Rename 11 vendor textures from uppercase .PNG/.HDR to lowercase so the
case-sensitive Git LFS filters (*.png/*.hdr) match on case-sensitive
filesystems (Linux CI, case-sensitive macOS), not just locally where
core.ignorecase=true masks the gap. Each .meta moved with its asset so
GUID references are preserved. All ~1000 binaries tracked via LFS.
