NEO-140: remove server-only manual QA doc after story end

Manual QA checklists are for client-facing stories; Bruno and dotnet
test cover this HTTP projection slice.

-## 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`** accepts grid contract when rep gate met and embedded row **`completionRewardSummary.reputationGrants`** = `[{ factionId: prototype_faction_rust_collective, amount: 10 }]`.
-- [ ] NEO-129 gather-intro **`completionRewardSummary`** shape unchanged except new empty **`reputationGrants`** array.
-
-**Client HUD verification** deferred to [NEO-142 (Godot HUD)](https://linear.app/neon-sprawl/issue/NEO-142/e7m3-10-client-faction-standing-gate-feedback-hud-godot) — this story is server HTTP projection only.

 - **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 + wire-level `factionGateRules` omission; `QuestProgressApiTests` operator-chain +15 rep, grid-contract +10 rep, gather-intro empty rep; **823** tests green.
-- **Bruno:** extended `Get quest definitions.bru`; new `Get quest progress after operator chain complete.bru`; gather-intro bru asserts empty `reputationGrants`.
+- **Manual QA:** none — server-only HTTP projections; Bruno + `dotnet test` cover verification (manual QA checklists reserved for client-facing stories per project convention).
-- **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).
