v0.8.0.15 — the reference documents, and a card that advertised what it cannot do
The four hand-written references brought up to the game as it actually runs, ahead of the next testing round, plus a Quickstart to hand a tester who has never played. They had not been touched since v0.6.2 — a month and two minor versions — and each now says at the top which build it describes. ONE LIVE BUG CAME OUT OF THE PASS. mainlineDescription told players "Cars may be sorted into any new order here" on the Interchange. It is the printed capability and has never been implemented: nothing reads sortsCars to permit a sort, and its one live use is marking the card an Extra may be made up on, because it is the Mainline card with a yard. That sentence is not only documentation — view.ts renders it as a Mainline card's `what`, so it is what a player reads on the board, and the generated reference printed a "Sorts cars: yes" column beside it. A card advertising a button that does not exist sends a player hunting for it and then concluding the game is broken. What the documents had wrong, all of it verified against the code rather than read for tone: the victory model in the Rules book (firstToTarget / highestAfterDays and the target-bearing length presets stopped existing in 2026-08 — it is a free days count and a combined floor of 3 x players x days); "there is no lobby, no server, no multiplayer"; crossing time in mph rather than regions; Extras launched automatically eastbound; the Uncontrolled Siding listed as a passing card; industry track length taken from the box count; and a "Sister Trains" optional rule that never existed. The Home deck's counts table came out under TODO #15a — Jesse's own ruling that counts move with balance — and it had been wrong for a month, which is the argument made twice. The Home and Mainline deck references are restructured to explain how a deck is USED and to defer every per-card table to rules/as-built.md. Duplicating it by hand is precisely the drift #15a was raised about: as-built needed no correction beyond the Interchange, because build:cards regenerates it and a test fails when the checked-in file disagrees. Everything hand-maintained around it had drifted; it had not. docs/design.md, the index everything starts from, said v0.4.3, "what is not: the server", and 493 tests. It now also lists the player-facing references, which it never has, so the Quickstart is findable at all. 999 fast tests and 35 sim tests pass.

v0.7.9.3 — the reference says what only the code knows, and saves get a rule
The generated card reference now carries the half TODO #15a said was the point of generating it: every Enhancement's `live` / `dormantSolo` / `unbuilt` status — whether its printed effect actually resolves yet — and the opponent-directed Action and Space-use cards, none of which is dealt in any deck. A transcription cannot carry either fact. Card counts are removed throughout, as ruled: they move with play balance so a document printing them is stale on the next retune. Where a count matters it is a yes/no "is this dealt at all", which is a fact about the design rather than the current tuning. #88 closes with it — it asked whether `card-reference.md`'s industry rows were stale, deliberately without rewriting them since Laborer counts are a balance decision. They are; nothing in the engine changed; that file is simply no longer where anyone looks. The balance question it guarded is #70. Save compatibility becomes a general rule in `README.md` § Design notes rather than a fact restated per version: a save is a list of moves and reopens by being re-played through the CURRENT rules, so any change that makes a once-legal move illegal stops an older one there — a deck change being the likeliest breaker. It fails safe every time. #40 generalised, #32's version-specific note dropped, #52 carries the ruling that versioned replays are a post-1.0 question. #94 opened: a Red Flag set out at an Office's Limits holds the next train from that side and is drawn nowhere. `DivisionView`'s office node has no `redFlag` field and `board-svg.ts` never mentions one, so after the single log line announcing it there is nothing on screen. Same class as Gitea#21 and #22, and already on the common board's step 1 list. No engine change. 897 tests pass, unchanged.

v0.7.9.2 — two things the table could hear that only one seat should
Both leaks were found while planning the common board (Gitea#20 step 1), and both are live multiplayer bugs with or without that display, so they are fixed now rather than with 0.8.0. `game.log` is one shared list and `linesSince(seat)` slices it with no per-seat filter, so every line reaches every player. It carried the SEED in the opening line of each multiplayer game — the whole future of the deal — and the NAME OF A CARD DRAWN BLIND from the face-down Home Office deck. Solitaire deliberately keeps both: a one-seat table has nobody to leak to, the seed is what a bug report quotes, and a player's own history naming their own draw is the record. A Department slot is face up and stays named. The drawer still learns their card through `justDrawn`, which already goes to that seat alone. Neither was found by a test. Every test in `redaction.test.ts` passes an empty log, so the whole of narration has sat outside the redaction net since the net was built. Both now have tests there; TODO #91 carries what is still owed and supersedes #78, which described a gap that had already been closed and never mentioned this one. `docs/rules/` had no current description of the game, and `content.ts` named `card-reference.md` as the file that carries what the cards say — a file whose own banner says not to use its numbers, describing the v0.4.5 deck where 3/4 is a Mail-Express with three coaches. Every file in that directory is a deliberate historical record, so none of them is rewritten. `as-built.md` is new and GENERATED from the same catalogues the engine instantiates from, with a test that re-runs the generator and fails when the checked-in file disagrees. A hand-written replacement would have drifted the same way, for the same reason. TODO.md: #32 closed — the playtest migration note did its job and the jump is made; the durable fact it carried is kept. #78 retired in favour of #91. The "play it at a table" section now records that 0.7.4-0.7.9 were test-run without change requests, and that more testing comes at the end of the 0.7.9 series. 897 tests pass, up from 891.
