 - ✓ `mc-ai/src/lib.rs::run_ai_turn` exists; deterministic given `(seed, state, weights)`. Verified Wave 3 — `run_ai_turn_is_byte_deterministic` test JSON-compares two runs at the same seed.
 - ✓ Every `#[ignore]` in `mc-ai/tests/tactical_port_regression.rs` is removed and the test passes. (Verified 2026-05-11 — `cargo test -p mc-ai --test tactical_port_regression` → 23 passed, 0 ignored. Zero `#[ignore]` attributes in file; line 3 comment is historical documentation.)
 - ✓ `mc-player-api` no longer contains `run_scripted_ai_turn` — call site replaced. Verified Wave 4 — function fully deleted; `apply_end_turn` now calls `drive_ai_slot` which threads `project_tactical` → `run_ai_turn` → `apply_ai_action`.

+- ✓ Headless harness loads `ai_personalities.json` at boot. Verified Wave-final 2026-05-11 — `claude_player_main.gd::_apply_ai_personalities` reads `res://public/games/age-of-dwarves/data/ai_personalities.json` once via `FileAccess`, parses for clan key list, deterministic slot→clan mapping (`clan_ids[ai_index % count]` over sorted clan ids), and calls new `GdGameState::set_player_personality_json(slot, clan_id, json)` per AI slot. The setter delegates JSON parsing into `mc_core::ScoringWeights::from_personality_json` (single SoT). 3-player smoke output evidence: `{"clan_id":"blackhammer","slot":1,"type":"ai_personality_assigned"}{"clan_id":"deepforge","slot":2,"type":"ai_personality_assigned"}`. Commit `2de1880db`.
 - ✓ `cargo check --workspace` green. Evidence: `cargo check --manifest-path src/simulator/Cargo.toml --workspace` → `Finished dev profile in 2.75s` (17 doc-comment warnings, 0 errors). Unblocked by p2-69 closing the api-gdext `mc_turn::snapshot` import gap (commit `be088c3ad`). `cargo test --workspace --lib` green for every owned crate (`mc-ai` 240, `mc-player-api` 74, `mc-turn` 207, `mc-observation` 24, `magic-civ-physics-gdext` 10); pre-existing `mc-flora::generation::tests::*authored*` failures are unrelated tech debt (confirmed via stash-test: failures present with no local changes on origin/main).
-- ☐ Headless smoke test: 5 EndTurns vs an AI clan produces non-trivial AI action chains. **Open** — api-gdext migration unblocks this but the gdext binary rebuild + harness drive + screenshot pipeline was deferred tonight per advisor (Waves 4-7 of the parent brief outside the safe budget window).
+- ⚠ Headless smoke test: 5 EndTurns vs an AI clan produces non-trivial AI action chains. **Plumbing verified; action-depth limited to turn 0 pending p2-67 Phase 11.** Wave-final 2026-05-11 — 2-player smoke (Claude vs blackhammer) and 3-player smoke (Claude vs blackhammer + deepforge) on apricot (gdext build `2de1880db` + class-cache pre-pass): turn 0 AI driver produced `actions_applied=1` per slot; turns 1-4 produced `actions_applied=0`. AI plumbing is end-to-end correct (`drive_ai_slot` → `project_tactical` → `run_ai_turn` with personality-shaped `ScoringWeights` → `apply_ai_action`). The action-depth ceiling is a downstream constraint: bench `GameState` does NOT tick production / research / unit refresh between EndTurns (`TurnProcessor::step` is not wired into `apply_end_turn` — owned by p2-67 Phase 11), so the AI sees the same idle bench state turn-over-turn with no new opportunities after the first founding pass. Output captured at `apricot:/tmp/wave1-smoke-output.txt` + `wave1-smoke-3p-output.txt`. **Personality variation:** both clans produced the same chain length on a fixed seed, which is consistent with `decide_tactical_actions` bottoming out on the bench's empty unit-catalog + zero-yield grid; the seed-derivation helper already proves byte-determinism in `mc-ai/tests/run_ai_turn_is_byte_deterministic`. Flips to ✓ when Phase 11 wires `TurnProcessor::step` (next wave) and turns 2-4 produce non-zero chains as a downstream consequence.
 - ✓ Determinism: same `(seed, state, weights)` produces byte-identical action sequences across two runs. Verified Wave 3 `run_ai_turn_is_byte_deterministic` — JSON-string equality, not just `len()`.
 
-**Status:** `partial` (7/9 ✓). Workspace-green flipped via p2-69 (commit `be088c3ad`, 2026-05-11). Two remaining bullets — `ai_personalities.json` harness loader + 5-EndTurn smoke — require a gdext binary rebuild on apricot and a screenshot-capable harness drive; both deferred to a follow-up pass (advisor STOP at Wave 4 budget). All substantive Rust work owned by this objective remains landed in Waves 1-4. Re-open the harness/smoke bullets in a new objective when gdext build pipeline + screenshot capture are both warm.
+**Status:** `partial` (8/9 ✓, 1 ⚠ conditional on p2-67 Phase 11). Harness loader bullet flipped ✓ via Wave-final 2026-05-11 (commit `2de1880db`, gdext rebuild on apricot, 2-player + 3-player smoke runs both emit `ai_personality_assigned` notification per AI slot with deterministic clan mapping). 5-EndTurn smoke bullet flips to ⚠ — plumbing verified, action depth limited to turn 0 because `TurnProcessor::step` is not wired into `apply_end_turn` (owned by p2-67 Phase 11). Will flip to ✓ when Phase 11 lands as a downstream consequence — the same smoke harness will then surface a multi-turn chain.

+### Shipped
+
+- **`GdGameState::set_player_personality_json`** at
+  `src/simulator/api-gdext/src/lib.rs:3038-3093` (new `#[func]`).
+  Slot-validated; delegates JSON parsing to
+  `mc_core::scoring_weights::ScoringWeights::from_personality_json`
+  (single SoT — no parallel parser in GDScript or api-gdext).
+  Errors logged via `godot_error!` for headless transcript review.
+- **`claude_player_main.gd::_apply_ai_personalities`** at
+  `src/game/engine/scenes/headless/claude_player_main.gd:138-181`
+  (new helper). Reads `res://public/games/age-of-dwarves/data/ai_personalities.json`
+  once via `FileAccess` — same canonical path used by `how_to_play.gd`
+  and `loading_screen.gd`. Parses for clan-key list only (not for
+  weights), assigns `clan_ids[ai_index % count]` over sorted ids,
+  calls the gdext setter per non-Claude slot. Emits an
+  `ai_personality_assigned` notification line per assignment for
+  adapter-side audit.
+- Harness call site at
+  `src/game/engine/scenes/headless/claude_player_main.gd:128`
+  (single line: `_apply_ai_personalities(gs, num_players)`) between
+  `add_player_militarist` and `gs.to_json()` — order matters: the
+  setter needs the `PlayerState` to exist before stamping weights.
+
+### Gate
+
+- gdext rebuild on apricot at commit `2de1880db`:
+  `bash build-gdext.sh x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu` →
+  `Finished release profile [optimized] target(s) in 3m 15s` →
+  `Copied … → engine/addons/magic_civ_physics/libmagic_civ_physics.x86_64.so`.
+- Editor class-cache pre-pass: `--editor --quit` →
+  `✓ class cache populated`.
+- 2-player smoke (`CP_PLAYERS=2`, seed=42, 5 EndTurns + shutdown):
+  `EXIT=0`. Output preamble:
+  `{"clan_id":"blackhammer","slot":1,"type":"ai_personality_assigned"}`.
+  Per-turn AI events: turn 0 → `actions_applied=1`; turns 1-4 →
+  `actions_applied=0`.
+- 3-player smoke (`CP_PLAYERS=3`, seed=42, 5 EndTurns + shutdown):
+  `EXIT=0`. Both AI slots assigned:
+  `{"clan_id":"blackhammer","slot":1,...}{"clan_id":"deepforge","slot":2,...}`.
+  Per-turn: turn 0 → both slots `actions_applied=1`; turns 1-4 →
+  both slots `actions_applied=0`.
+
+### Honest limitation surfaced by the smoke
+
+`actions_applied=0` on turns 1-4 is **not** a personality-load
+regression. Root cause: bench `GameState` doesn't tick production /
+research / unit-refresh between EndTurns. `TurnProcessor::step` is
+owned by p2-67 Phase 11; until that wires, the AI sees the same
+idle bench (3 warriors / 1 capital / no queue progress / 0 science
+yield) every turn and `decide_tactical_actions` finds nothing
+productive to do. The 1-action turn-0 chain is the single
+opportunistic founding/fortify the bench permits.
+
+The plumbing — `drive_ai_slot` → `project_tactical` →
+`run_ai_turn(seed, weights)` → `apply_ai_action` — is fully verified
+end-to-end with real personality-shaped `ScoringWeights` reaching
+the Rust core. When Phase 11 wires `TurnProcessor::step` into
+`apply_end_turn`, the same smoke will surface non-trivial multi-turn
+chains as a downstream effect, and the `⚠` bullet flips to ✓
+without any additional p2-68 work.
+
 ## 2026-05-11 — Wave 0: baseline + scope check
 
 - Inspected `mc-ai/tests/tactical_port_regression.rs` — **zero `#[ignore]` attributes remain** (line 3 is historical documentation only). All 23 tests pass on apricot canonical at current `origin/main`. Acceptance bullet 4 ("Every `#[ignore]` in tactical_port_regression.rs is removed and the test passes") **satisfied without work** — recording here so the bullet is checkable.
