# Module Dependency Register

Tracks cross-epic dependencies and contract readiness. Every **Depends On** module ID in this table has its own row (closed graph).

**Contract** means a stable boundary with a defined artifact (Protobuf wire message, JSON Schema content file, telemetry catalog entry, or server-internal type until promoted). See **[What a contract is](contracts.md)** for kinds, repo layout, and versioning. **Authority** (who owns `PositionState`, camera, combat outcomes): **[Client vs server authority](client_server_authority.md)**. **PvP × combat:** **[PvP and the combat engine](pvp_combat_integration.md)**. **Quests × party:** **[Quest scope and party rules](quest_scope_and_party.md)**. **Data reload × telemetry ops:** **[Data reload and telemetry operations policy](data_and_ops_policy.md)**. **Docs vs code:** **[Documentation and implementation alignment](documentation_and_implementation_alignment.md)**.

Fleshed-out scope, contracts, and integration notes live in **per-module documents** (see [Per-module documentation](#per-module-documentation)).

## Dependency Table

### Epic 1 — Core Player Runtime

| Module ID | Module Name | Depends On | Contract Needed | Phase Required | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| E1.M1 | InputAndMovementRuntime | None | MoveCommand, PositionState, InteractionRequest | Prototype | Ready |
| E1.M2 | IsometricCameraController | E1.M1 | CameraState, ZoomBandConfig, OcclusionPolicy | Prototype | Ready |
| E1.M3 | InteractionAndTargetingLayer | E1.M1 | TargetState, InteractableDescriptor, SelectionEvent | Prototype | In Progress |
| E1.M4 | AbilityInputScaffold | E1.M3, E5.M1 | AbilityCastRequest, HotbarLoadout, CooldownSnapshot | Prototype | In Progress |

**E1.M2 note:** Prototype slice **Ready**: `client/scripts/isometric_follow_camera.gd` + child `Camera3D` on **`World/IsometricFollowCamera`** in `client/scenes/main.tscn`; per-tick **`CameraState`** (`client/scripts/camera_state.gd`); **`ZoomBandConfig`** ([NEO-16](https://linear.app/neon-sprawl/issue/NEO-16)); **`OcclusionPolicy`** ([NEO-17](https://linear.app/neon-sprawl/issue/NEO-17)); pick-through **`"occluder"`** convention ([NEO-20](https://linear.app/neon-sprawl/issue/NEO-20)); consumer contract + occluder lifecycle hardening ([NEO-18](https://linear.app/neon-sprawl/issue/NEO-18)). See [E1_M2_IsometricCameraController.md](E1_M2_IsometricCameraController.md).

**E1.M3 note:** Decomposition expanded in [E1_M3_InteractionAndTargetingLayer.md](E1_M3_InteractionAndTargetingLayer.md) (E1.M1 vs E1.M3 boundary, contract sketches, Slice 3 alignment). **Partial (NEO-23):** versioned JSON v1 **`PlayerTargetStateResponse`** + **`POST …/target/select`** under `server/NeonSprawl.Server/Game/Targeting/` ([NEO-23](../../plans/NEO-23-implementation-plan.md); [server README — Targeting](../../../server/README.md#targeting-neo-23)) — throwaway HTTP spike per [contracts.md](contracts.md). **Partial (NEO-25):** versioned **`GET /game/world/interactables`** + `InteractablesListDtos` / `InteractablesWorldApi` in `Game/Interaction/`; Godot `interactables_catalog_client.gd` + `interactable_world_builder.gd` ([NEO-25](../../plans/NEO-25-implementation-plan.md); [server README — Interactable descriptors](../../../server/README.md#interactable-descriptors-neo-25)). **NEO-26 (prototype `SelectionEvent`):** Godot **`TargetSelectionClient.selection_event`** on **`lockedTargetId`** changes ([NEO-26](../../plans/NEO-26-implementation-plan.md)). **Follow-on / in progress:** richer multi-consumer **`InteractableDescriptor`** targeting on later Linear issues. **Precursor (E1.M1):** **`InteractionRequest`** + horizontal reach ([NEO-9](../../plans/NEO-9-implementation-plan.md); `Game/Interaction/`, `Game/World/HorizontalReach.cs`).

**E1.M4 note:** Vertical-slice decomposition is defined in [E1M4-prototype-backlog.md](../../plans/E1M4-prototype-backlog.md) with story slugs **E1M4-01** through **E1M4-05** (loadout contract, cast path, accept/deny UX, cooldown sync, telemetry hooks). **NEO-29** started implementation with `HotbarLoadout` v1 server APIs + persistence wiring and client hydration; **NEO-31** added the prototype cast POST + client digit-key path and resolver tests; **NEO-28** added server target lock + range gates and client cast feedback UX; **NEO-30** documented Epic 1 Slice 3 cast-funnel telemetry hook sites (comment-only, `AbilityCastApi`); **NEO-32** added `GET …/cooldown-snapshot`, `on_cooldown` deny, and client HUD + poll sync — module status remains **In Progress**; see [E1_M4_AbilityInputScaffold.md](E1_M4_AbilityInputScaffold.md), [NEO-29 plan](../../plans/NEO-29-implementation-plan.md), [NEO-31 plan](../../plans/NEO-31-implementation-plan.md), [NEO-28 plan](../../plans/NEO-28-implementation-plan.md), [NEO-30 plan](../../plans/NEO-30-implementation-plan.md), and [NEO-32 plan](../../plans/NEO-32-implementation-plan.md).

**E4.M3:** Epic also references backend world services for region authority; treat as external integration alongside E4.M1 contracts.

### Epic 5 — PvE Combat

| Module ID | Module Name | Depends On | Contract Needed | Phase Required | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| E5.M1 | CombatRulesEngine | E1.M3, E2.M2 | CombatAction, CombatResolution, ThreatState | Prototype | In Progress |

Builds on E1.M4 cast funnel (NEO-28/31/32); extends **`POST …/ability-cast`** with **`CombatResolution`**. **NEO-76 landed:** frozen four-ability catalog + CI ([NEO-76 plan](../../plans/NEO-76-implementation-plan.md)). **NEO-77 landed:** fail-fast server load of `content/abilities/*_abilities.json` ([NEO-77 plan](../../plans/NEO-77-implementation-plan.md)). **NEO-79 landed:** injectable **`IAbilityDefinitionRegistry`** + DI; hotbar/cast use **`TryNormalizeKnown`** ([NEO-79 plan](../../plans/NEO-79-implementation-plan.md)). **NEO-78 landed:** **`GET /game/world/ability-definitions`** — `AbilityDefinitionsWorldApi` + DTOs in `Game/Combat/` ([NEO-78 plan](../../plans/NEO-78-implementation-plan.md)); Bruno `bruno/neon-sprawl-server/ability-definitions/`. **NEO-80 landed:** **`ICombatEntityHealthStore`** / **`InMemoryCombatEntityHealthStore`** — lazy prototype dummy HP at **`PrototypeCombatConstants.MaxPrototypeTargetHp` (100)**; DI via **`AddCombatEntityHealthStore()`** ([NEO-80 plan](../../plans/NEO-80-implementation-plan.md)); [server README — Combat entity health (NEO-80)](../../../server/README.md#combat-entity-health-neo-80). **NEO-81 landed:** **`CombatOperations.TryResolve`** + **`CombatResult`** + **`CombatReasonCodes`** — defeated pre-check deny vocabulary (`target_defeated`, `unknown_ability`, `unknown_target`) ([NEO-81 plan](../../plans/NEO-81-implementation-plan.md)); [server README — Combat engine (NEO-81)](../../../server/README.md#combat-engine-neo-81). **NEO-82 landed:** **`AbilityCastApi`** invokes **`CombatOperations.TryResolve`** after E1.M4 gates; nested wire **`combatResolution`** on accept; per-ability catalog **`cooldownSeconds`** on successful resolve; **`target_defeated`** JSON cast deny without cooldown ([NEO-82 plan](../../plans/NEO-82-implementation-plan.md)); [server README — Ability cast (NEO-82)](../../../server/README.md#ability-cast-neo-31-neo-82); Bruno `bruno/neon-sprawl-server/ability-cast/` defeat spine. **NEO-83 landed:** **`GET /game/world/combat-targets`** — `CombatTargetsWorldApi` + DTOs; authoritative HP snapshot from **`ICombatEntityHealthStore`** for client HUD ([NEO-83 plan](../../plans/NEO-83-implementation-plan.md)); [server README — Combat targets snapshot (NEO-83)](../../../server/README.md#combat-targets-snapshot-neo-83); Bruno `bruno/neon-sprawl-server/combat-targets/`. **NEO-44 landed:** **`CombatDefeatGigXpGrant`** on cast **`targetDefeated`** — **25** gig XP to **`breach`** via **`IPlayerGigProgressionStore`** (V007); **`GET …/gig-progression`** ([NEO-44 plan](../../plans/NEO-44-implementation-plan.md)); [server README — Gig progression (NEO-44)](../../../server/README.md#gig-progression-snapshot-neo-44). **NEO-84 landed:** comment-only **`ability_used`** / **`enemy_defeat`** telemetry hook sites in **`CombatOperations.TryResolve`**; reserved **`encounter_start`** / **`player_death`** ([NEO-84 plan](../../plans/NEO-84-implementation-plan.md)); [server README — Combat telemetry hooks (NEO-84)](../../../server/README.md#combat-telemetry-hooks-neo-84). **NEO-85 landed:** client combat HUD — **`combat_targets_client.gd`**, **`CombatTargetHpLabel`**, **`CastFeedbackLabel`** resolution copy; event-driven **`GET /game/world/combat-targets`** refresh ([NEO-85 plan](../../plans/NEO-85-implementation-plan.md), [`NEO-85` manual QA](../../manual-qa/NEO-85.md)); [client README — Combat feedback + target HP HUD (NEO-85)](../../../client/README.md#combat-feedback--target-hp-hud-neo-85). **NEO-86 landed:** playable combat capstone — **`gig_progression_client.gd`**, **`GigXpLabel`**, defeat-triggered gig GET refresh; capstone manual QA [`NEO-86`](../../manual-qa/NEO-86.md) ([NEO-86 plan](../../plans/NEO-86-implementation-plan.md)); [client README — End-to-end combat loop (NEO-86)](../../../client/README.md#end-to-end-combat-loop-neo-86). **Epic 5 Slice 1 client capstone complete.**

### Epic 6 — PvP Security

| Module ID | Module Name | Depends On | Contract Needed | Phase Required | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| E6.M1 | PvPEligibilityAndFlagState | E4.M4 | PvPFlagState, EligibilityRule, PvPStateChanged | Prototype | Planned |
| E6.M2 | ConsentAndRiskUxSignals | E6.M1, E1.M2 | RiskPrompt, ZoneRiskState, PvPIndicatorState | Prototype | Planned |
| E6.M3 | LossPenaltyAndAntiGriefRules | E6.M1, E9.M4 | PvPLossRule, SpawnProtectionState, GriefingStrike | Pre-production | Planned |
| E6.M4 | RewardParityEnforcer | E3.M2, E5.M3, E7.M2 | RewardParityMap, EquivalentPowerBand, ParityViolationAlert | Prototype | Planned |

### Cross-cutting: combat and PvP eligibility

When hostile actions can target **players**, [E5.M1 — CombatRulesEngine](E5_M1_CombatRulesEngine.md) **must** consult [E6.M1 — PvPEligibilityAndFlagState](E6_M1_PvPEligibilityAndFlagState.md) in the same server handling path before applying effects. **PvE-only** milestones may use a **stub** that denies all player-target hostility until PvP is enabled. Shape and deny reasons: **[PvP and the combat engine](pvp_combat_integration.md)**.

### Cross-cutting: quests and party

Quest state is **per-character** by default; **party credit** and **leader-only turn-in** use [E8.M1 — PartyAndMatchAssembly](E8_M1_PartyAndMatchAssembly.md) when enabled in `QuestDef`. Solo milestones need no party service. Details: **[Quest scope and party rules](quest_scope_and_party.md)**.

### Cross-cutting: data reload and telemetry

Gameplay **content and curves** default to **boot load** with optional **dev-only** reload; live tuning defers to **E9.M3 / E2.M4** when available. **Telemetry:** PII rules, sampling, retention principles, and **baseline event taxonomy** (vision plan + future catalog). See **[Data reload and telemetry operations policy](data_and_ops_policy.md)**.

### Epic 7 — Quest / Faction

| Module ID | Module Name | Depends On | Contract Needed | Phase Required | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| E7.M1 | QuestStateMachine | E3.M2, E5.M1 | QuestDef, QuestStepState, QuestStateTransition | Prototype | Planned |

| E7.M4 | ContractMissionGenerator | E4.M1, E5.M3, E7.M3 | ContractTemplate, ContractSeed, ContractOutcome | Pre-production | Planned |

### Epic 8 — Social / Guild

| Module ID | Module Name | Depends On | Contract Needed | Phase Required | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| E8.M1 | PartyAndMatchAssembly | E1.M3 | PartyState, InviteEvent, RolePreference | Pre-production | Planned |
| E8.M2 | GuildCorpProgressionState | E8.M1, E7.M3 | GuildState, GuildRolePolicy, GuildProgressionEvent | Production | Planned |
| E8.M3 | PlayerTradeAndMarketplace | E3.M3, E3.M5 | MarketListing, TradeOffer, SettlementEvent | Pre-production | Planned |
| E8.M4 | ChatModerationAndReporting | E9.M4 | ChatMessageEvent, PlayerReport, ModerationAction | Pre-production | Planned |

### Epic 9 — LiveOps / Integrity

| Module ID | Module Name | Depends On | Contract Needed | Phase Required | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| E9.M1 | TelemetryEventSchema | None | TelemetryEvent, EventSchemaVersion, ClientEventEnvelope | Prototype | Planned |
| E9.M2 | KpiDashboardsAndAlerting | E9.M1 | KpiDefinition, AlertThreshold, MilestoneGateSignal | Pre-production | Planned |
| E9.M3 | LiveBalanceControlPlane | E9.M2, E5.M1, E2.M4, E3.M5 | BalancePatch, ConfigVersion, RolloutState | Production | Planned |
| E9.M4 | IntegrityAndAbuseResponse | E9.M1 | IntegritySignal, IncidentTicket, EnforcementAction | Pre-production | Planned |

### Cross-cutting — Content tooling (not E1–E9)

Operator-facing authoring infrastructure; module IDs use the **CT** prefix. Program doc: [`tooling/internal_authoring.md`](../tooling/internal_authoring.md).

| Module ID | Module Name | Depends On | Contract Needed | Phase Required | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CT.M1 | ContentValidationPipeline | Soft: E2.M1, E3.M2–M3, E4.M1, E7.M1 (shape alignment) | JSON Schema bundle, validation CLI, error schema | Prototype | Planned |
| CT.M2 | AuthoringStudioApplication | CT.M1 | Studio project layout, optional local content API | Prototype | Planned |
| CT.M3 | ContentReferenceAndBundleWorkflows | CT.M1; CT.M2 (recommended) | ContentBundleManifest (optional), reference graph | Pre-production | Planned |

**CT.\*** modules consume **gameplay content** contracts from E1–E9; they do not replace **E7** runtime quest semantics or **E4** server travel evaluation.
