v0.7.9.8 — the test command did not typecheck, and the plan had gone stale

Housekeeping before v0.8.0: the answer to "anything else that should be
looked at first". One real hole, one stale document, and my own leavings.

#102 — `npm test` passed green on a type error. `pretest` ran
`scripts/build-web.ts`, which invokes `tsc --ignoreConfig` against three
web entry points, so it saw only what those three transitively import and
under a WEAKER configuration than tsconfig.json — no
`noUncheckedIndexedAccess`, no `exactOptionalPropertyTypes`,
`--types ''`. It never saw `src/server/` or a single file under `test/`.

Demonstrated rather than argued: a planted
`const DELIBERATE_TYPE_ERROR: number = 'not a number';` in
src/server/session.ts gives `npm run typecheck` a TS2322 and `npm test` a
clean `# fail 0`. `pretest` is `tsc --noEmit && node
scripts/build-web.ts` now, and the same error exits 1 with the tests
never running.

This mattered THIS week rather than generally: v0.8.0 is steps 2-7 of the
common board — display stream, credentials, persistence, Chromium
supervisor — which is almost entirely src/server/, exactly the half the
test command could not see.

#103 — the plan had drifted from the code it is the source for.
docs/plans/jitsi-common-board.md was written 2026-08-27, still said "No
implementation has been performed", and is what steps 2-7 get built from.
Step 1 shipped across four releases since, so every "current code
finding" under it described a fault that is now fixed — a document
reading as present tense and nine days stale sends the next reader to fix
things twice.

Measured: its PublicFrame sketch lists four properties never built
(protocolVersion, config, scoring, deckCounts) and omits 28 that exist,
and the shape is the real difference — the implementation is FLAT where
the plan grouped things into objects, so a renderer written from the
sketch would not compile. The plan now says so at the top and at step 1,
names src/sim/view.ts and the redaction allow-list as the authority,
keeps the original sketch for its reasoning, and calls out
`protocolVersion` as unbuilt rather than dropping it quietly — step 2 is
the reconnecting display stream and is the first thing that would want
one.

One step-1 item is STRUCK OFF rather than built: "add the Red Flag holder
to the public player projection". The premise does not hold here.
`decks.redFlags` is written once, in setup.ts, from
`optionalRules.emergencyToolbox`, and never again — `redFlag.play` emits
`phaseEnded` and does not spend it — so every player holds one or none
does, decided before the deal. A per-player `redFlagHeld` would be one
already-public option copied N times, while telling every reader of the
common board that it varies by player and might change mid-game. Worse
than the absence. Pinned by test so it is not re-raised from the plan.

Four dead imports removed, all mine: `HAND_LIMIT` left unused in
apply.ts, view.ts and web/game.ts when 0.7.9.6 consolidated the three
copies of the §6.2 test, and `actingPlayer` in web/game.ts, dead since
0.7.9.5 made `currentActor` delegate. Finding them re-measured #46:
`tsc --noUnusedLocals` now reports 40, up from 29 on 2026-08-30. That
entry's "without the flag this list simply regrows" is a measurement
rather than a forecast now. The other 36 and the flag stay open.

946 tests pass, up from 943. No behaviour changes: three new tests pin an
invariant, and the rest is a build command, dead imports and a document.
