Add IPlayerGigProgressionStore (in-memory + Postgres V007), GET
/gig-progression snapshot, and CombatDefeatGigXpGrant on cast accept
when targetDefeated — 25 XP to breach, outside E2.M2 skill XP.
Includes tests, Bruno, README, manual QA, and plan reconciliation.
Add dev combat-targets fixture reset endpoint, Bruno pre-request helper, and enable fixture in CI Bruno step so combat-targets tests run after ability-cast defeat spine.
Invoke CombatOperations.TryResolve after E1 gates; nested combatResolution
on accept; per-ability catalog cooldown; target_defeated deny without
cooldown. Tests, Bruno defeat spine, README and module docs updated.
Pure server combat resolution applies catalog damage via the health store,
denies re-hits on defeated targets, and validates unknown ability/target ids.
Place item_crafted and craft_failed TODO(E9.M1) anchors in
CraftOperations.TryCraft; document in server README and mark E3.M2
Slice 3 server backlog complete.
Rename wire DTO to PlayerCraftRequest, add store-missing and default-quantity
API tests, improve Bruno deny isolation, README success sample, and doc nits.
Wire POST /game/players/{id}/craft to CraftOperations with CraftResponse DTOs,
integration tests, gather→refine→make Bruno folder, and module/README updates.
Nest gather_node_depleted hook in remainingGathers == 0 guard,
add E3M1-08 deny-branch out-of-scope note, and give README NEO-64
its own subsection anchor.
Thin adapter over ItemDefinitionCatalog mirroring NEO-35 skill registry;
registers singleton in AddItemDefinitionCatalog with TryGetDefinition,
GetDefinitionsInIdOrder, and AAA unit + host DI tests.
Batch skillXp then resetPerkState with XP rollback; 400 for invalid skillXp;
MasteryFixtureApi gate tests; README fixture vs grant semantics; Bruno GET playerId.
Replace fixture player ids with POST …/__dev/mastery-fixture (resetPerkState,
absolute skillXp). Bruno deny tests set state in pre-request on dev-local-1.
Gated to Development/Testing or Game:EnableMasteryFixtureApi.
Seed neo48-perk-fresh and neo48-perk-branch via Game:FixturePlayerIds;
level_too_low uses isolated fresh player, branch_already_chosen sets up
neo48-perk-branch in pre-request instead of skipping on shared state.
GET/POST /game/players/{id}/perk-state with versioned JSON, engine-backed
branch selection, PerkStateApiTests, Bruno collection, README, and E2.M3 alignment.
Mirror validate_content.py gates in MasteryCatalogLoader, expose IMasteryCatalogRegistry, cross-check skillIds against the skill catalog, and enforce tierIndex 1..N per track.
Replace placeholder XP level math with content-backed thresholds validated in CI and at server boot, and update docs/manual QA/review artifacts to reflect NEO-39 delivery and follow-up fixes.
Register SkillDefinitionCatalog from content/skills with JsonSchema.Net validation
mirroring validate_content.py and the prototype Slice 1 gate. Resolve paths via
Content:SkillsDirectory or discovery from AppContext.BaseDirectory. Eager-load
after WebApplication build so bad catalogs block startup. Add unit and host
tests, pin test factories to repo skills, document config in server/README, add
manual QA checklist, and extend Bruno GET /health smoke tests.
