+| Plan | `docs/plans/NEO-140-implementation-plan.md` |
+| Branch | `NEO-140-e7m3-quest-http-rep-gate-projections` |
+
+## Preconditions
+
+- Server running: `cd server/NeonSprawl.Server && dotnet run` (in-memory dev player `dev-local-1`).
+- Bruno collection `bruno/neon-sprawl-server` loaded with `baseUrl` = `http://localhost:5253`, `playerId` = `dev-local-1`.
+- NEO-138 reward router rep grants and NEO-139 faction-standing GET landed on `main`.
+
+## Setup sanity
+
+- [ ] `curl -sS http://localhost:5253/health` returns `"status":"ok"`.
+- [ ] `dotnet test NeonSprawl.sln` passes (821+ tests).
+
+## Quest definitions — factionGateRules
+
+- [ ] Run Bruno **`quest-definitions/Get quest definitions`**. Response **200**; `prototype_quest_grid_contract.factionGateRules` = `[{ factionId: prototype_faction_grid_operators, minStanding: 15 }]`.
+- [ ] Same response: `prototype_quest_gather_intro` and `prototype_quest_operator_chain` have **no** `factionGateRules` key.
+- [ ] `curl -sS http://localhost:5253/game/world/quest-definitions | jq '.quests[] | select(.id=="prototype_quest_grid_contract") | .factionGateRules'` matches the Bruno assertion.
+
+## Quest progress — completionRewardSummary.reputationGrants
+
+- [ ] Run Bruno **`quest-progress/Get quest progress after gather intro complete`**. Gather row `completionRewardSummary.reputationGrants` = `[]`.
+- [ ] Run Bruno **`quest-progress/Get quest progress after operator chain complete`**. Operator-chain row `completionRewardSummary.reputationGrants` = `[{ factionId: prototype_faction_grid_operators, amount: 15 }]`; item and skill XP lines unchanged from NEO-129 freeze.
+- [ ] Second GET in the operator-chain bru matches the first (idempotent summary).
+
+## No regressions
+
+- [ ] Bruno **`faction-standing/Get faction standing after operator chain`** still shows Grid Operators standing **15** after operator-chain flow.
+- [ ] Bruno **`quest-progress/Accept grid contract after operator chain`** still accepts grid contract when rep gate met.
+- [ ] NEO-129 gather-intro **`completionRewardSummary`** shape unchanged except new empty **`reputationGrants`** array.
+
+**Client HUD verification** deferred to [NEO-142](NEO-142.md) — this story is server HTTP projection only.

 ## Acceptance criteria checklist
 
-- [ ] Gated quest definition includes **`factionGateRules`** in world GET.
-- [ ] Completed quest rows include rep lines in **`completionRewardSummary`** when delivered.
-- [ ] `dotnet test` covers grid-contract gate projection and operator-chain rep summary.
-- [ ] Bruno asserts grid-contract **`factionGateRules`** and operator-chain **`reputationGrants`**.
+- [x] Gated quest definition includes **`factionGateRules`** in world GET.
+- [x] Completed quest rows include rep lines in **`completionRewardSummary`** when delivered.
+- [x] `dotnet test` covers grid-contract gate projection and operator-chain rep summary.
+- [x] Bruno asserts grid-contract **`factionGateRules`** and operator-chain **`reputationGrants`**.
+
+## Implementation reconciliation (shipped)
+
+- **World GET:** `QuestDefinitionsWorldApi` maps `QuestDefRow.FactionGateRules` → optional `factionGateRules` on `QuestDefinitionJson` (`QuestFactionGateRuleJson`: `factionId`, `minStanding`); omitted when empty.
+- **Quest progress GET:** `QuestProgressApi.MapCompletionRewardSummary` maps `RewardDeliveryEvent.GrantedReputation` → `reputationGrants` (`QuestReputationGrantJson`: `factionId`, `amount`); required array when summary present.
+- **Accept POST:** inherits updated mapper via `QuestProgressApi.MapQuestProgressRow` — no accept-specific changes.
+- **Tests:** `QuestDefinitionsWorldApiTests` grid-contract gate row; `QuestProgressApiTests` operator-chain +15 rep and gather-intro empty rep; **821** tests green.
+- **Bruno:** extended `Get quest definitions.bru`; new `Get quest progress after operator chain complete.bru`; gather-intro bru asserts empty `reputationGrants`.
+- **Docs:** `server/README.md` quest-definitions + quest-progress sections; E7.M3 module + alignment register updated.
+- **Manual QA:** [`docs/manual-qa/NEO-140.md`](../manual-qa/NEO-140.md).
