-**Freed occluder (end-to-end, editor):** Position player so `Obstacle` is between camera and player (fade active), then `queue_free` the occluder (remote inspector or one-shot script). Expect **no** recurring script errors and **no** stuck transparent materials on other meshes. **Smoke-tested on the story branch in-editor (2026-04-10)** before merge handoff — complements static `occluder_override_key_is_valid` tests, which do not execute the full purge path in CI.
