+- **`GET /game/world/recipe-definitions`** — eight prototype recipes on boot; scrollable panel below **`SkillProgressionLabel`**.
+- **`POST /game/players/{id}/craft`** — JSON body `schemaVersion`, `recipeId`, `quantity` (default **1**); see [server README — Craft HTTP](../server/README.md).
+- **Scripts:** `scripts/recipe_definitions_client.gd`, `scripts/craft_client.gd`, `scripts/craft_recipe_panel.gd`; wired from `main.gd`.
+- **HUD:** `UICanvas/CraftFeedbackLabel` — success **`Craft: +N {displayName}`** from POST **`outputsGranted`**; deny **`Craft: denied — {reasonCode}`**. **`SkillProgressionLabel`** adds **`refine`** row (boot + post-craft refresh). **`InventoryLabel`** refreshes on craft success only (no **I**).
+- **Panel:** per-recipe **Craft** button (qty **1**); input summary uses cached item **`displayName`** when available.

+# NEO-74 — Manual QA checklist

+| Key | NEO-74 |
+| Title | E3.M2: Client craft UI + recipe list (E3S5-03) |
+| Linear | https://linear.app/neon-sprawl/issue/NEO-74/e3m2-client-craft-ui-recipe-list-e3s5-03 |
+| Plan | `docs/plans/NEO-74-implementation-plan.md` |
+| Branch | `NEO-74-e3m2-client-craft-ui-recipe-list` |
+
+## Preconditions
+
+- Server running with default dev player (`dev-local-1`); craft HTTP landed (NEO-70); recipe defs GET landed (NEO-68); inventory HUD (NEO-72) and gather/skill HUD (NEO-73) working.
+
+## Checklist
+
+1. Start server: `cd server/NeonSprawl.Server && dotnet run`.
+2. Run Godot main scene (**F5**). Confirm **`SkillProgressionLabel`** shows **`salvage`** and **`refine`** rows after boot.
+3. Scroll the recipe panel below skills — **eight** prototype recipes with **Craft** buttons.
+4. On a fresh player (empty bag), click **Craft** on **`refine_scrap_standard`**. **`CraftFeedbackLabel`** shows **`Craft: denied — insufficient_materials`**. Press **I** — inventory unchanged.
+5. Gather **≥5** **`scrap_metal_bulk`** (see [NEO-73 manual QA](NEO-73.md) **R** at resource nodes).
+6. Click **Craft** on **`refine_scrap_standard`**. **`CraftFeedbackLabel`** shows **`Craft: +1 …`** (refined plate output). **`InventoryLabel`** updates without **I**. **`refine`** xp increases on **`SkillProgressionLabel`**.
+7. Gather **≥1** more scrap if needed; ensure **≥2** **`refined_plate_stock`** and **≥1** **`scrap_metal_bulk`** in bag (craft **`refine_scrap_standard`** again or gather).
+8. Click **Craft** on **`make_field_stim_mk0`**. Success feedback shows **`field_stim_mk0`** output; bag lists consumable; **`refine`** xp increases again.
+9. Optional deny spot-check: with a full bag, attempt a craft whose output cannot fit — expect **`Craft: denied — inventory_full`**.
+
+## Notes
+
+- Craft quantity is fixed at **1** per button (no spinner in this story).
+- Success copy comes from POST **`outputsGranted`**; inventory and skill rows refresh via GET after success only.
