+# p2-09 guide-web-deploy audit — 2026-04-17
+
+Scope: verify the four acceptance bullets for the guide web app deploy
+pipeline. Work was done from the EDIT host; the guide build was run on
+the apricot RUN host per CLAUDE.md Two-Host Workflow (pnpm + node +
+wasm-pack live on apricot). No compiled WASM `.wasm` or `pkg/` artifacts
+were rsync'd EDIT→RUN.
+
+## What already existed
+
+- `public/games/age-of-dwarves/guide/` — React + Vite + TypeScript app,
+  pnpm workspace member `@magic-civilization/guide-age-of-dwarves`.
+- `src/packages/guide/` — shared component library `@magic-civ/guide-engine`.
+- `src/simulator/build-wasm.sh` — produces `src/simulator/pkg/` for the
+  guide's `@magic-civ/physics-rs` alias.
+- `vite.config.ts` — path aliases, WASM plugin, port 5800 dev server.
+- `tsconfig.json` — mirrored path aliases, strict mode.
+
+## Gaps fixed this pass
+
+1. **Broken import `@/game.json` flagged by prior teammate reports.**
+   Root cause: `@` alias resolves to `src/`, but `game.json` lives at
+   `public/games/age-of-dwarves/game.json` — one directory above the
+   guide's `src/`. Fix: changed to relative path `'../../../game.json'`
+   in `public/games/age-of-dwarves/guide/src/app/guide-data.ts`. Verified
+   the file resolves correctly from disk.
+
+2. **Five missing Toc re-exports in `@magic-civ/guide-engine`.**
+   Consumers in `public/games/age-of-dwarves/guide/src/components/nav/`
+   import `TableOfContents`, `TocEntry`, `SimulationArrow`, `TocLink`,
+   `TocIcon` from the package barrel — none were listed in
+   `src/packages/guide/src/index.ts`. Added re-exports for all five plus
+   the `NavItem` / `NavGroup` / `NavEpisodeHeader` types consumed by the
+   same component tree.
+
+3. **`tools/deploy-guide.sh` (new, 87 LOC)** — four modes:
+     build            # pnpm --filter … build → dist/
+     serve [port]     # local python http.server preview (default 5801)
+     apricot [ver]    # rsync dist/ → apricot:~/public/guide/<ver>/
+     zip [ver]        # archive dist/ into .local/build/guide/guide-…zip
+   External hosting target is unresolved (no GitHub Pages / S3 /
+   Cloudflare Pages decision committed); the `zip` mode produces an
+   artifact that can be handed to whichever public host wins, and
+   `apricot` mode gives the team a LAN-reachable preview today. A
+   TODO-line in the script header flags the external-host gap.
+
+## Blocker found (out of devops scope)
+
+**`@magic-civ/guide-engine` has drifted systematically from its consumer.**
+After applying the fixes above, the build still fails; `pnpm typecheck`
+reports 32 TS errors across 32 files. Missing barrel exports include:
+
+    GuideLayout, PreferencesProvider, RaceThemeProvider, EpisodeProvider,
+    usePreferences, usePreferencesReroll, resolveGender, resolveRace,
+    ResolvedPreferences, ThemePreview, PageHeading, PageSubtitle, DataTable,
+    TechTreeGraph, Highlight, QualityTierDef, Lens, LensCategory, LensUnlock,
+    SPECIES_LIBRARY, applyObservationLens, SpeciesObservationLens,
+    ObservedSpecies, EpisodeDwarvesPage, EpisodeKzzkytPage, EpisodeElvesPage,
+    TheHivePlanetPage, SilvandelPage, SpellsPage, MagicSchoolsPage,
+    ArchonsPage, DisciplinesPage, LeyLinesPage
+
+Plus two type incompatibilities in `src/data/game.ts` where
+`Unit[]` / `Building[]` are being assigned to
+`ResourceWithEncyclopedia[]` — structural type drift, not a missing
+export.
+
+This is craft work for the `guide-web` agent (per `.claude/agents/`
+registry: "Player guide web app: React pages, components, climate sim,
+Vitest"), not devops infrastructure. Deployment tooling cannot be
+verified against a broken build; the deploy script ships ready, and the
+build-pass verification defers to the drift fix.
+
+## Empirical verification on apricot
+
+    ssh lilith@apricot.local 'cd ~/Code/@projects/@magic-civilization/src/simulator && bash build-wasm.sh'
+    # → wasm-pack finished in ~50s, 8 warnings (all missing-docs), no errors.
+    # → pkg/magic_civ_physics{.js,.d.ts,_bg.wasm,_bg.wasm.d.ts,_bg.js} emitted.
+
+    ssh lilith@apricot.local 'cd ~/Code/@projects/@magic-civilization && \
+        pnpm --filter @magic-civilization/guide-age-of-dwarves build'
+    # → 3430 modules transformed, then Build failed on missing @magic-civ/guide-engine
+    #   exports. Transform phase proved guide-data.ts fix works; rollup phase revealed
+    #   the drift.
+
+    ssh lilith@apricot.local 'cd ~/Code/@projects/@magic-civilization && \
+        pnpm --filter @magic-civilization/guide-age-of-dwarves typecheck'
+    # → 32 errors across 32 files. Cited above.
+
+## Status call
+
+Moving `partial` → `partial` (no status change). The Objective Status
+Integrity rule forbids `done` when the first acceptance bullet ("zero
+TypeScript errors") is measurably false at 32 errors. Fix is scoped to
+`guide-web`, not `devops-engineer`. Dashboard citation for this pass
+shows the deploy script + one-level-deep import fix + partial
+re-exports; full `done` unblocks after guide-web closes the drift.

 ## Summary
 
-Workers build farms, mines, hunting grounds that modify tile yields. Data JSON + renderer support exist. Recent batch (`loop8`) had seeds with `worker_improvements/seed = 0` → regression from loop7's min=8. The loop is partially assembled: worker AI picks the tile, tile yield reflects improvement on next turn, but some seed combinations still stall.
+Workers build farms, mines, hunting grounds that modify tile yields. Data
+JSON + renderer support exist. Worker AI is wired in
+`auto_play.gd::_command_worker` (tile selection + `ImprovementManager.
+start_improvement`) and the yield delta is applied by
+`_on_improvement_completed`. The regression path across `loop4..loop9` was
+chronic on seeds 4 and 5: these seeds saw p0 never open an empty queue for
+worker scoring because forge→warrior chains took over the queue and p0 was
+under attrition. Fix landed 2026-04-17: a deterministic worker-first
+override in `_manage_production` that prepends a worker to the queue once
+when `own_workers==0`, pop≥2, peaceful, and turn≤60. Named-constant gates
+in `auto_play.gd:25-40`.
 
 ## Acceptance
 
-- ✗ Every seed in a 10-seed T300 batch produces ≥5 worker improvements (checklist target). Last measured: `loop8` showed some seeds at 0 (regression from `loop7` min=8). **Needs fresh 10-seed T300 batch under current apricot build.**
-- ? Improvement → tile-yield delta is deterministic (seeded) and visible in `tile_info_panel.show_tile` tooltip. Renderer hook exists in `tile.gd`; tooltip visual not yet proof-screenshotted.
-- ? Tech unlocks gate advanced improvements (e.g. `windmill` after `milling`); blocked improvements never appear in worker candidate list. Logic path lives in `simple_heuristic_ai.gd`; no dedicated GUT test confirms the gate.
-- ✗ GUT test: mock worker at a grassland tile → `apply_improvement("farm")` → get_yields increases by the farm's documented food delta. Test file does not exist.
-- ? No player-facing script errors related to improvement placement in a 10-seed T300 run. Needs fresh batch grep for `SCRIPT ERROR` + `improvement` co-occurrence.
+- ? Every seed in a 10-seed T300 batch produces ≥5 worker improvements.
+  Fix shipped 2026-04-17 (`auto_play.gd::_maybe_prioritize_worker`), batch
+  validation in progress (`.local/iter/p016_20260417_023203/`) — apricot
+  CPU contention from concurrent batches is delaying completion. Loop8
+  baseline (pre-fix) showed seeds 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,9,10 all ≥13 improvements;
+  only seed 4 was 0. The fix targets seed-4-class failures specifically.
+- ? Improvement → tile-yield delta is deterministic (seeded) and visible in
+  `tile_info_panel.show_tile` tooltip. Renderer hook exists in `tile.gd`;
+  tooltip visual not yet proof-screenshotted. Yield-delta correctness now
+  has a GUT test (see below) even without the visual proof.
+- ✓ Tech unlocks gate advanced improvements; blocked improvements never
+  appear in worker candidate list.
+  Cited: `test_worker_improvement_tech_gate.gd` PASSES on apricot
+  2026-04-17 (2/2 tests, 2 assertions) — injects a fixture improvement with
+  `tech_required: "milling"` into DataLoader, asserts
+  `ImprovementManager.get_buildable_improvements` excludes it for a player
+  without the tech and includes it for a player with the tech.
+- ✓ GUT test: mock worker at a grassland tile → farm → get_yields
+  increases by the farm's documented food delta.
+  Cited: `test_worker_improvement_yield.gd` PASSES on apricot 2026-04-17
+  (2/2 tests, 4 assertions) — covers grassland+farm food delta AND
+  hills+mine production delta. Routes through `ImprovementScript.
+  get_yield_bonus` so JSON-vs-code drift is caught.
+- ? No player-facing script errors related to improvement placement in a
+  10-seed T300 run. Needs fresh batch grep for `SCRIPT ERROR` + `improvement`
+  co-occurrence once `p016_20260417_023203` batch completes.
 
 ## Remaining to reach done
 
-1. Run a 10-seed T300 batch with current apricot build; count `worker_improvements` per seed from `turn_stats.jsonl` aggregate; assert min ≥ 5.
-2. Author GUT unit test `test_worker_improvement_yield.gd` at `src/game/engine/tests/unit/` covering grassland + farm yield delta.
-3. Author GUT unit test covering tech-gated improvement exclusion (e.g. worker at tile without `milling` never picks `windmill`).
-4. Grep batch `script_errors.log` for improvement-related failures; resolve or cite zero-match.
+1. Complete pending 10-seed T300 batch on apricot (queued behind other
+   team-leads' parallel batches); regenerate dashboard.
+2. Proof-screenshot `tile_info_panel` showing farm yield tooltip.
+3. Grep batch `game.log` for improvement-related script errors.

 ## Summary
 
-Top bar, unit panel, city-screen headers, tech-tree nodes all benefit from hover tooltips. Current coverage spotty.
+Every interactive HUD control now carries a `tooltip_text` resolved through
+`ThemeVocabulary.lookup("tooltip_<key>")`. The vocabulary file ships a
+dedicated `tooltip_*` namespace so theme packs can localize hover copy
+without touching scenes. Stat-row Labels also set
+`mouse_filter = MOUSE_FILTER_STOP` — Godot otherwise swallows hover on
+container-managed Labels, so without this tooltips never fire on
+TurnLabel / EraLabel / Gold / Science / HP / Movement rows.
 
 ## Acceptance
 
-- Every interactive HUD element has a tooltip via `Control.tooltip_text` or custom tooltip scene.
-- Text resolves through `ThemeVocabulary.lookup()` (no hardcoded strings).
+- ✓ Every interactive HUD element has a tooltip via `Control.tooltip_text` —
+  `top_bar.gd:_apply_tooltips()` covers Turn, Era, Gold, Science, Happiness,
+  GoldenAgeBadge, DiplomacySegment, Stats / Encyclopedia / BugReport buttons.
+  `unit_panel.gd:_apply_tooltips()` covers Attack, Defense, HP label + bar,
+  Movement, Fortify / Skip / FoundCity buttons. `end_turn_button.gd:14`
+  sets tooltip on the End Turn button. `world_map_hud.gd` sets tooltips on
+  TechTree / Chronicle / EndTurn / FoundCity / BuildImprovement buttons.
+- ✓ Text resolves through `ThemeVocabulary.lookup()` (no hardcoded strings) —
+  all 21 call-sites use `lookup("tooltip_<key>")`. Prior hardcoded
+  `tooltip_text = "Demographics (F9)"` / `"Encyclopedia (F1)"` / `"Report
+  Bug"` strings on `top_bar.tscn:149,158,167` were removed; the runtime
+  `_apply_tooltips()` pass is now authoritative. The single remaining
+  hardcoded `tooltip_text` in `top_bar.tscn` is gone after this change.
+
+## Tests
+
+- `src/game/engine/tests/unit/test_hud_tooltips.gd` — validates that all 21
+  `tooltip_<key>` entries exist in vocabulary, each resolves to a
+  non-fallback non-empty string (distinct from title-cased key echo), and
+  descriptive tooltips differ from button labels. Also asserts the
+  `_apply_tooltips()` init helper exists on `top_bar.gd` and
+  `unit_panel.gd`.

 ## Summary
 
-Guide React app exists with multiple pages (empire/personality, economy/resources). WASM climate worker uses the same Rust crates as the game. Gap: no deploy target, no CI gate, and the `guide-data.ts` @/game.json import is flagged as broken in prior teammate reports.
+Guide React app (Vite + TypeScript + React 19) lives under `public/games/age-of-dwarves/guide/`. WASM climate worker shares Rust crates with the game. This pass fixed the long-flagged broken `@/game.json` import, added five missing Toc re-exports to `@magic-civ/guide-engine`, and authored `tools/deploy-guide.sh` (87 LOC; build / serve / apricot / zip modes) as the deploy harness for whichever public host wins the external-hosting decision.
+
+Remaining blocker before `done`: `@magic-civ/guide-engine` has drifted from its consumer — `pnpm typecheck` reports 32 TS errors across 32 files (29 missing barrel exports + 2 structural type incompatibilities in `src/data/game.ts`). This is craft work for the `guide-web` agent, not devops-engineer. Once the drift closes, `tools/deploy-guide.sh build` will produce a clean `dist/`, and the objective can flip.
