+Capstone proof that Epic 3 prototype gather→craft works **in Godot** without Bruno.
+
+**Flow (single session):**
+
+1. **Boot** — server running; Godot **F5**. Clients hydrate item defs, inventory, skill progression, recipe defs (NEO-72–74).
+2. **Gather** — **WASD** to each resource anchor; **R** posts nearest in-range **`resource_node`** interact (NEO-63). On success: **`GatherFeedbackLabel`** delta, automatic inventory GET, **salvage** row refresh (NEO-73).
+3. **Refine** — scroll **`EconomyHudSection`** recipe panel; **Craft** **`refine_scrap_standard`** when **≥5** scrap (NEO-74). On success: **`CraftFeedbackLabel`**, inventory GET, **refine** row refresh.
+4. **Make** — **Craft** **`make_field_stim_mk0`** when **≥2** **`refined_plate_stock`** and **≥1** scrap. Verify **`field_stim_mk0`** in bag.
+
+**Inputs:** **R** gather · **Craft** buttons (qty **1**) · **I** manual inventory refresh (optional) · **`Economy HUD`** checkbox collapses inventory/skills/recipe block (NEO-75).
+
+**Material minimum:** **11** scrap from one **R** at each of four prototype nodes (+1, +2, +3, +5) → two **`refine_scrap_standard`** → one **`make_field_stim_mk0`**.
+
+**HUD paths:** feedback labels stay on **`UICanvas`**; economy block under **`UICanvas/EconomyHudSection/Body/`** (`InventoryLabel`, `SkillProgressionLabel`, `CraftRecipePanel`).

+# NEO-75 — Manual QA checklist
+
+| Field | Value |
+|-------|-------|
+| Key | NEO-75 |
+| Title | E3: Playable gather→refine→make loop in client (E3S5-04) |
+| Linear | https://linear.app/neon-sprawl/issue/NEO-75/e3-playable-gatherrefinemake-loop-in-client-e3s5-04 |
+| Plan | `docs/plans/NEO-75-implementation-plan.md` |
+| Branch | `NEO-75-e3-playable-gather-refine-make-loop` |
+
+## Preconditions
+
+- **Fresh dev player:** stop any running server, then start a new instance so in-memory **`dev-local-1`** inventory, skills, and resource-node depletion reset.
+- **No Bruno/curl seeding** for this checklist — all materials come from in-client gather (**R**).
+- NEO-72 inventory HUD, NEO-73 gather feedback, NEO-74 craft UI landed on the same branch or `main`.
+
+## Material math
+
+| Step | Action | Scrap | Plates | Result |
+|------|--------|-------|--------|--------|
+| Gather ×4 | **R** at four anchors (below) | **+11** | — | 11 scrap |
+| Refine #1 | Craft **`refine_scrap_standard`** | −5 | +1 | 6 scrap, 1 plate |
+| Refine #2 | Craft **`refine_scrap_standard`** | −5 | +1 | 1 scrap, 2 plates |
+| Make | Craft **`make_field_stim_mk0`** | −1 | −2 | **`field_stim_mk0` ×1** |
+
+## Checklist
+
+1. Start server: `cd server/NeonSprawl.Server && dotnet run`.
+2. Run Godot main scene (**F5**). Confirm **`Economy HUD`** toggle is **on**; **`InventoryLabel`** shows empty bag; **`SkillProgressionLabel`** shows **`salvage`** and **`refine`** rows.
+3. **WASD** to **`prototype_resource_node_alpha`** anchor **(12, −6)**. Press **R** once. **`GatherFeedbackLabel`** shows **`+1`** scrap delta; inventory scrap updates without **I**; **`salvage`** xp increases.
+4. Walk to **`prototype_subsurface_vein_beta`** **(18, −6)**; press **R** (**+2** scrap). Repeat at **`prototype_bio_mat_gamma`** **(12, 0)** (**+3**) and **`prototype_urban_bulk_delta`** **(18, 0)** (**+5**). Inventory shows **11** scrap total.
+5. In the recipe panel, click **Craft** on **`refine_scrap_standard`**. **`CraftFeedbackLabel`** shows success; inventory shows **6** scrap and **1** **`refined_plate_stock`**; **`refine`** xp increases.
+6. Click **Craft** on **`refine_scrap_standard`** again. Inventory shows **1** scrap and **2** plates.
+7. Click **Craft** on **`make_field_stim_mk0`**. Success feedback shows **`field_stim_mk0`** output; **`InventoryLabel`** lists **`Field Stim Mk0`** (or agreed display name) with quantity **≥ 1**; **`refine`** xp increases again.
+8. Uncheck **`Economy HUD`** — inventory, skills, and recipe panel hide; gather/craft feedback labels above remain visible. Check **`Economy HUD`** again — panel repopulates with current data.
+
+## Notes
+
+- **R** posts the **nearest in-range** `resource_node`; walk to each anchor before pressing **R** (see [NEO-73 manual QA](NEO-73.md) for anchor coords).
+- Re-run this checklist after a **server restart** (nodes deplete; inventory persists only in memory).
+- Combat **use** of **`field_stim_mk0`** is out of scope (E5 follow-up).
+
+## Acceptance
+
+- [ ] Steps 1–8 completable in one session without Bruno/curl.
+- [ ] **`field_stim_mk0`** quantity **≥ 1** in inventory at step 7.
+- [ ] **Salvage** xp moved after gather; **refine** xp moved after each successful craft.
