Preconditions

• Server running with default dev player (dev-local-1) and item catalog loaded (NEO-51–NEO-55 on main).

Checklist

1. Start server: cd server/NeonSprawl.Server && dotnet run.

2. Run Godot main scene (F5). InventoryLabel (below cooldown HUD) shows Inventory: (refresh: I), Bag: (empty), and Equipment: / slot 0: — empty on a fresh dev player.

3. Seed inventory via Bruno or curl:

   curl -sS -X POST "http://localhost:5253/game/players/dev-local-1/inventory" \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -d '{"schemaVersion":1,"mutationKind":"add","itemId":"scrap_metal_bulk","quantity":5}'
   

4. Press I (or inventory_refresh). HUD lists occupied bag slot with Scrap Metal (Bulk) x5 (display name from NEO-53 defs).

5. Stop the server; press I. HUD shows error — … and Output shows InventoryClient: push_warning.

6. Restart server; press I again — HUD returns to synced inventory lines.

Notes

• I is handled in main.gd _unhandled_key_input (same reliability pattern as E / R interact keys).
• POST inventory mutations from UI are out of scope; use Bruno/curl to seed stock for this story.
