Say it once: the accessibility review, first five findings - #89

Conversation
An accessibility review of the site found the opposite of what such a review usually finds: nothing missing, everything said two or three times. The game page was the worst of it, and this is the first two of its three blocking findings. The connect screen was in the document three times — a 24-row excerpt, the whole thing again under "show all N rows", and its text a third time under "read as text". Three passes through box-drawing characters that carry no words, and the largest block on the page. It is now one frame holding every row, which scrolls; the crop is gone from the parser as well as from the frame, so there is no second copy to keep in step. The art is one image with a one-line alternative (role="img", which prunes the drawing the way aria-hidden would and, unlike aria-hidden, leaves the region focusable — it scrolls, and a keyboard has to be able to scroll it). The words are under "read as text", once. The alternative names the screen and points at the text; it does not describe the artwork. A paragraph about somebody else's ASCII would be our reading of their drawing presented as a fact about their game. The activity grid announced "not measured" 167 times on a game with one probe, before reaching the single number that existed. Two changes. Below seven measured days there is no grid at all — the panel says what we have and what has to arrive before there is a week to draw, which is kinder to a screen reader and stops a sparse page looking broken to everybody else. The summary sentence is suppressed with it: "busiest Monday, small hours" off one Monday morning is a claim about a shape one measurement cannot have. Where the grid is drawn it is hidden from assistive tech and its text alternative is a real table of seven rows — day, quietest, busiest, the hour of the peak, and a column each for the two kinds of hour that produce no number. The mouse tooltips are unchanged. Nothing about the three states of §5.4 is softened: an hour we could not count and an hour nobody measured have separate columns, and neither is ever a nought. The plain surface takes the same threshold and the same words, because it is the mirror people actually rely on. The capability tally was the section's heading text and, verbatim, the table's sr-only caption. It is now the caption, on screen, once. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The review's second finding about the listing: a row ran the count, its provenance, its age and "reached 19m ago" together with no separation, so a screen reader got one long slur and a sighted reader untangled it from the layout. The same age was on the row twice — the count's chip dated the probe the freshness column already dated — and the word "measured" was on every row of a page headed "Every fact below was measured". The row now reads as three zones: identity, measurement, freshness. - The count keeps its glyph, and spells out "declared" on the rows where the number is one the game states about itself. That is the exception and the one a reader could be misled by. Rule 1 is intact — the two kinds of number are still told apart, by shape, by colour and in text — and the 500 rows that were saying the site's default claim out loud have stopped. - The freshness column is the bare age under one "reached" heading, rather than the verb repeated 515 times. A screen reader still hears it, once, per row. - Protocols print three and then a count of the rest, with no accent dot beside each: every protocol on that line is measured by definition, so six dots per row said one thing six times. - "unclaimed" is off the rows, on both surfaces. It was on all 515 of them: an administrative fact about our records, repeated at a reader looking for somewhere to play, and a mark every row wears distinguishes no row from any other. It stays on the game page, where it arrives with the way to change it, and in the API. - The row has a 44px floor, because the game's name is the link and this list is five hundred touch targets on a phone. Four copy rewrites from the same review, shipped with the page they are on: "quiet — reachable, nobody counted" becomes "reachable, count unknown"; the unranked break becomes "reachable, count unreadable — not zero"; the tick-box hint becomes "Unticked means not measured — not that the game lacks it"; and the two sort groups become "typical" and "peak", since every option under them already names its own window.

Three absolute date formats were in use — 2026-08-17 in a game's change list, 31 July 2026 in the rankings, Aug 2026 beside an address — and every relative age carried no absolute value at all, so "19m ago" could not be resolved by anybody arriving from a cached page or a search result. Dates now has one spelling, 17 Aug 2026, and it asks for the invariant culture by name rather than taking whatever culture the host process happens to be in. Moment is the age: a <time> carrying the machine-readable instant, and in its title the age and the absolute together — "19m ago, 17 Aug 2026 14:02 UTC". The visible text is as short as it ever was. The absolute is spoken to a screen reader where a reader is weighing one fact — a game page's fields, its capability ages, the connect screen's capture — and not on a listing row, where announcing the full stamp 515 times would rebuild the wall this pass is pulling down. The ladder runs to 48 hours rather than 36 before it turns into days. Nothing can stop 84m sorting below 1h to the eye, but the rungs are at least where the crawl's own cadence puts things. Two rankings changes while the page was open. Tied rows share a place: twenty games all reachable since 31 July 2026 were numbered 1 to 20, an order the measurements do not contain, on a site whose argument is that it prints only what it measured. Both captions now say the ties are ties. And the eligibility line is a sentence — "No game yet has the 24 samples across 4 days that a median needs" — rather than "0 of 519 games listed produced the 24 counted samples a median needs, on at least 4 days of the window", which was arithmetic left to the reader. The vote-gaming argument is off the rankings page and stays on /about, which is its home; the rule itself is still stated here. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…ror on every page The nav was nine links in one flat row, in no order anybody could name, with no mark on the page you were reading. They are two ideas and two odd ones out: games · find · random · archive are places to browse, reference · ecosystem · rankings are things to read about the hobby, submit is an action rather than a category, and about is site meta. Two labelled groups, and the last two moved to the far end beside sign in, where a reader looks for what to do. The current page is marked with aria-current and an inset box-shadow. Not a border and not a padding change: either adds a pixel to the current item's box and shifts every link beside it the moment you arrive, which is the defect that was reported. "/" matches only itself, so the home page marks nothing rather than everything. The front page had a hidden h1 and opened on a search placeholder. It now says what the site is — the sentence the meta description already carried — and the lede says how it knows. Neither repeats the wordmark, which is why the h1 was hidden in the first place. The feeds stop repeating their own headings. "first seen" under "newly discovered" and "answered again" under "came back" were the column said twice, once per row; "we keep knocking" was a promise about the crawler made once per dark game, and it is now in that column's heading, once. A cause is a measurement and stays: a dark row reads "connection refused". The crawler strip loses its label — "crawler live · last probe just now · nothing due this cycle" — and /find loses a third of its words: six optional questions, TLS named as TLS, five acronyms with three words each and a link to the reference article this site already has on every one of them, and "answers filter; they never rank" said once instead of three times. And ?plain=1 is on /find, which had neither the link nor the surface. It is the one page whose mirror is not the graphical page with the graphics removed, because a form has nothing to remove: it is the same questions with the parameter each answer writes, so a reader in a text browser can compose the listing URL by hand.

The range and shape selectors under the trend rendered the option you were already on as a link back to the page you were reading — a tab stop whose only effect is to re-fetch. It is a span with aria-current now, tinted as well as outlined, since with no hover left to distinguish it the border was doing all the work alone.

Finding B3. Each facet was one <select> holding every value twice — once under "only", once under "anything but" — so thirteen codebases were twenty-seven options. To a screen reader that is near-identical pairs, one after the other; to everybody it is a control that shows nothing at rest, because a select sitting on an option in its second group looks exactly like one sitting on "any" until it is opened. One row per value now, with the three states the filter actually has: off, only, anything but. The two controls are real radios sharing the facet's key, so the browser does the work — picking one clears the rest, arrow keys move within the group, the facet is one tab stop as the select was, and there is no script. The querystring is unchanged: exclusion is still the !value token the binding and the read API already parse, so every filtered URL anybody has bookmarked still means what it meant. Radios rather than the review's checkboxes because a Choice facet holds one selection (FacetChoice). A tick that silently replaced the last one would be a control lying about what the filter can hold — which is the failure mode the review names for tri-states, in the other direction. Details: - Both controls carry an aria-label with all three parts: "PennMUSH, 23 games, only" and "PennMUSH, 23 games, excluded" — and the excluded name carries the count excluding it returns, not the value's own, because a control must not offer a number the listing will not produce. - Excluded is a strike-through, a × and a ring at the dim step. Not amber: on this site amber means declared-or-ageing everywhere else, and a second meaning would cost it the first. - "Any" is ticked and not tinted. Six accent-ringed rows saying "any" is a panel shouting its own defaults, and it would leave the tint meaning nothing by the time a reader reached the row it should have marked. - Five rows, then a native <details> holding the tail — a facet can hold twelve values and there are nine facets. The disclosure opens itself when the reader's own choice is inside it, and its controls submit either way. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The first pass took the review's structure and applied it inside the layouts this site already had. That was the wrong reading: the handoff says layout is high fidelity and is the deliverable, and its _ds/ token files carry a scale this stylesheet was not on. The scale first, from tokens/spacing.css and tokens/typography.css — their relationships, not their colours, which belong to another product and whose README says so. Content padding goes 14px → 20px, a listing row is 13px by 20px over a 46px floor, and there are radius tokens where there were four hand-picked values: 9px for controls, chips and rows, 14px for the surfaces that hold them, 99px for pills. One easing curve at 0.14s. h2 comes down to 20px. The games listing is two columns. Filters on the left at 268px with their own edge running the full height of the card — `align-items: stretch`, so it does not stop under a short panel and leave a well — and the rows on the right. They were a wide band above the listing, which pushed the first game below the fold on every visit and gave nine facets the shape of a toolbar rather than of a question. Source order is filters then listing, so the narrow layout stacks them in the order the tab key already takes; a visual order disagreeing with the DOM would be a worse answer than a long panel. The header block carries the count: "6 games, every fact measured." The front page's four figures are tiles: a label, a value, no sub-label. They were one 12px mono line reading like a caption, which is what the site's whole claim is not. The crawler strip is framed by hairlines above and below. The three change lists are rows — name left, age right, a hairline between — rather than columns of boxed cards: a framed thing on this site is somebody else's connect screen, and a card per game gave a name and an age the furniture of a section. The return still raises its voice, as a tinted row with the one glow this page spends. And the game page's address moved inside the title's own column, where the handoff puts it. As a sibling of the outer row it hung under the logo and read as belonging to it; nested, the indent is the title's and collapses to nothing by itself on a game with no logo. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…them Two defects, both mine, both in the panel this pass rebuilt. The rows did nothing. As radios they were honest about the filter's shape and useless in the hand: a reader ticked a value and the page sat there until they found the "show" button. They are links now — each one is this listing asked one facet differently, and a ticked row's own link is the one that clears it. No script, immediate, a real keyboard target, openable in a new tab, and the state it produces is the URL, which is what this panel has always said the state is. What a link cannot carry is text typed into the search box and not submitted; that box keeps its own button. And applying a filter looked like a page that had lost its results. The panel renders two siblings into the listing grid — the form, and the row of chips that sits outside it because a chip is a link rather than a control — so auto-placement gave the chips the second column and dropped the listing into the first, under a filter column a thousand pixels tall. Both columns are assigned explicitly now, and the mobile query resets them. Also: the codebase line read "codebase PennMUSH · about PennMUSH · all games" directly under a chip reading "codebase PennMUSH ×" with "clear all" beside it — the filter named twice and the way out offered twice, on the page whose whole edit is about saying things once. What is left is the one link the chip cannot carry, to the reference article on the thing being filtered on. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

- Around line 92-94: Extract the shared sentence currently produced by
Alternative into a single reusable symbol, then have Alternative and the Name
parameter’s rendering reference it so the wording is maintained in one place.
Preserve the existing one-line alternative behavior and naming semantics.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Components/CapabilityMatrix.razor`:
- Around line 21-23: Update the caption around Disagreements.Count and
Rows.Count to select “capability” when Rows.Count is 1 and “capabilities”
otherwise, preserving the existing disagreement pluralization.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Components/EcosystemCopy.cs`:
- Around line 227-239: Update the eligible-games sentence in the ranking copy to
use the complete form “{count} of {listed} listed games has/have …”, selecting
singular “has” for one qualifying game and plural “have” otherwise; preserve the
no-eligible-games branch and surrounding wording.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Components/FacetWords.cs`:
- Line 174: Update the GameSort.Players unranked-row label in the formatter so
it does not claim reachability for rows lacking a LastReachableAt observation;
use the neutral “count unreadable” wording unless the formatter receives and
validates the game’s reachability state. Keep reachability tied to an actual
crawler measurement rather than inferred game status.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Components/Layout/MainLayout.razor`:
- Around line 97-108: Update IsCurrent in MainLayout so a parent path such as
/games is not considered current when the request matches the known child path
/games/random, while retaining normal parent matching for other descendants. Add
coverage for /games/random that verifies exactly one navigation item receives
aria-current="page".
In `@src/MUI.Web/Components/Pages/Games.razor`:
- Around line 18-19: Update the games listing summary near Listing.Games.Count
to remove the claim that every fact is measured, using wording that remains
accurate when player counts are explicitly marked as declared in the row
rendering.
Apply the same fix in `@src/MUI.Web/Components/Pages/Home.razor` around lines 30 -
31: The home-page lede has the same unconditional measured-provenance claim.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Components/Pages/RankingsPage.razor`:
- Around line 140-142: Update the LongestUnbroken ranking in the RankingsPage
markup to use ascending comparison for Since values, so earlier dates receive
the better place under Place’s ordering. Apply the same correction to the
additional ranking occurrence, and add a regression test covering spells with
unequal Since dates.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Components/PlainText.cs`:
- Around line 860-864: Update the row-rendering loop in RenderFind so each
composed line is passed through the existing Wrap mechanism and never exceeds
the documented 80-column limit, including long token and FacetWords.Value
results. Also add RenderFind to the surfaces array used by
NoPlainLineIsWiderThanEightyColumns so this constraint is enforced by tests.
- Around line 841-842: Update RenderFind’s plain-text introductory text so its
stated question count matches the sections actually rendered: restrict
listing.Facets to the six find-page questions, or compute the count from the
filtered sections after the null check. Keep the existing rendering behavior for
those six questions unchanged.
In `@src/MUI.Web/wwwroot/app.css`:
- Around line 15-30: Replace the literal border-radius values at the affected

Render.Words(html) to inspect the raw html instead, and use a measured-chip
marker contained within a single element so the assertion can fail when the chip
is rendered. Preserve the existing positive declared-note assertion.
- Around line 147-156: Update ALongScreenSaysHowLongItIsAndPrintsAllOfIt to
assert that the rendered output contains every row from the batmud fixture,
rather than relying only on the “connect screen: 214 lines” caption; adjust the

The structure was right and the page still did not look like the drawing, because the drawing is a card: every screen in the handoff sits in one rounded surface with the nav along its top edge and the content under it, on a ground that carries a single soft radial. This site rendered everything loose on a flat background, so the bar, the filters and the rows read as three things on a page rather than as one instrument. The shell is that card — 14px radius, the surface step, one border — the bar is its top edge at the handoff's 60px with the raised step behind it, and the body takes the radial from effects.css in our own colours. The row type comes down to the handoff's scale with it: the count is 15px mono rather than the largest thing on the page, and the meta line and the age meet at 12.5px, which is what makes a row read as one line of facts instead of three sizes of them. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two things the drawing does not have, and the panel's own height. A listing row is identity, measurement and freshness: a name, a count, an age and the meta line under them. The plate and the tagline are gone from it — a 36px square and a sentence per row is two columns of furniture down a list five hundred long, and both are on the game's own page where there is room to mean something. GamePlate is unchanged and the game page still draws it, so the monogram still has one implementation. The filter column leads with three groups — what is on now, what it runs, when we last reached it — and puts the other six behind one disclosure, because nine facets in a 268px column is a column taller than the listing it filters. The disclosure opens itself when one of the six is doing something. Checked at 1400, 900 and 430: nothing scrolls sideways, the row's meta line ellipsises rather than pushing the count out of the card, and the connect screen keeps its own scroll inside its frame. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…nside a box Reported, and all four real. The bar had eleven things in it and a fixed 60px row, so "sign in" wrapped under "about submit" and the wordmark floated between two ragged rows. It wraps properly now — the groups stay whole, the rows have a gap, and nothing is clipped by a height it cannot have. The card was 1120px in a 1400px frame, which read as a column down the middle of the page rather than as the handoff's full-width panel. 1320. The protocol pills could be wider than the 268px column that holds them, so they pushed its edge out. They wrap their own words and are capped at the width of what contains them. And the filter form still carried its old panel styling — border, radius, its own surface — from when it was a band above the listing. Inside the card that is a box within a box, fighting the hairline that already separates the columns. The column's edge is the separation; the form is its contents. With them: content padding 20 → 24, the toolbar level with the panel's first control rather than pushed down by a margin that belonged to the old layout, and a search placeholder that fits its field.

The audit first: every screen rendered against the mockup at 1440, 1024, 768 and 430, in both themes, with the numbers read off getComputedStyle rather than guessed. docs/2026-08-17-mockup-parity-qa.md is the checklist and the record of what the pass did with it. The chrome. A 60px bar that never wraps, on the surface a step below the card rather than a step above, and the current-page marker drawn strictly inside the item's box — it carried a padding-bottom on top of the inset shadow, so the bar moved a pixel the moment a marked item was on it. That is the defect the handoff names by hand, and the bar's geometry is now byte-identical across four pages. The nav degrades through a defined order instead of whatever flexbox decides: labels, then submit's border, then both groups into one menu disclosure, then submit into that menu, then type. Width triggers each step, never language. Every link exists in the document exactly once — the obvious implementation, a second copy inside the menu, puts two aria-current markers in one page. The listing row is three zones on one grid. The count and the age are siblings on the first line rather than a nested column stacking one over the other, the provenance glyph and the word "declared" are off the count entirely, the unit moved into a column head that says it once instead of on 515 rows, and the codebase chip lost the age the freshness column was already printing. The panel: three shapes for three shapes of data. Activity and last seen are nested thresholds, so they are radios with no exclude affordance — "everything but games with somebody connected" is not a question anybody has. Everything else is tri-state, and an excluded row wears the danger tint the drawing draws. Rows are a grid rather than a flex run, which is what stops one group's widest label pushing its counts ten pixels past the panel's edge. The sort select and the show button are gone; the order is a pressed-state switch over the column whose numbers it changes. The game page is one column, which is what removes the focus jump from the bottom of the page back up to a right rail. No monogram where a game published no icon. The count is a figure over the kicker that dates it. One connect figure, framed as a quotation. And the i18n work that needs no translations: every game-supplied name is a <bdi> carrying a language derived from its own codepoints — but only where the script settles it. Han without kana, Cyrillic and Devanagari get isolation and direction and no lang at all, because guessing there would assert something about somebody's game that nothing measured. The kicker's uppercase and tracking are locale-gated, the machine voice carries translate="no", the connect caption states its width in cells, and players became connected everywhere. 631 web tests, and no horizontal overflow on eight pages at four widths in both themes.

The card goes. Drawing the site as one panel floating on a ground is a mockup convention rather than a product decision — a directory is an instrument you fill the window with, not a document you frame — so the border, the radius, the shadow and the side margins are gone and the page is the surface. What the card was actually carrying survives: one bar along the top, bands separated by hairlines, and every block sharing one left edge. That left edge is now a single --gutter, fluid, landing on the handoff's 24px at the width it was drawn to and growing a little rather than pinning a wide monitor's chrome to the glass. The bar, the header band, the toolbar, every listing row, the filter column and the footer all read it. The bar becomes chrome and behaves like it: sticky, because the game page runs to three and a half thousand pixels with the catalogue at the top of it. And a defect this pass shipped: `overflow: hidden` on the bar clipped away every pixel of the nav's own dropdown, so at the width where that disclosure IS the navigation it opened onto nothing. Both the bar and the shell now clip sideways and stay open downwards — `clip` is what allows that pairing, where `hidden` would coerce the other axis to `auto` and hand the page a scrollbar. The marker for the current page changes shape with the panel: an underline on the bar's bottom edge, a leading edge in the list. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…e, and the i18n pipeline Five things, in the order they were asked for. **Full-bleed.** The card is gone — no border, radius, shadow or side margins. Drawing the site as one panel on a ground is a mockup convention, not a product decision; what the card carried is unchanged, and the left edge every block shares is now one fluid --gutter that lands on the drawing's 24px at the width it was drawn to. The bar is chrome and behaves like it: sticky, over a page that runs to three and a half thousand pixels. A defect the previous commit shipped went with it: `overflow: hidden` on the bar clipped away every pixel of the nav's own dropdown, so at the width where that disclosure IS the navigation it opened onto nothing. Both the bar and the shell now clip sideways and stay open downwards. **The filter panel stops moving.** Filtering the codebase shifted the activity group up and deleted two of its four rows. The cause was one function answering two questions at once: how many a row returns, and whether the row exists at all. The count is over the filtered domain; the row set is decided by the catalogue as the reader is looking at it. So a scale keeps its length whatever else is filtered, a lineage nobody runs still does not appear, and a rung that returns nothing is dimmed rather than deleted — 0 is an answer. **Copy**, at the user's direction: the three per-group notes are gone, the listing's "N games, every fact measured" line is gone, and "reachable, count unreadable — not zero" is now "Unknown count". The old line spent most of its words denying a reading nobody had had yet. **A light theme that is not white.** #ffffff stopped being a panel and became the whole window when the card went. Large fields of pure white glare, halation is worst for readers with astigmatism, and 21:1 body contrast is past the point where more helps — which is why Primer, Carbon, Material and Solarized all land on an off-white instead. The ramp is a soft cool grey with near-white reserved for what sits above it, which also restores a distinction light had lost: --surface and --raised were both #ffffff. Every step is measured; --faint moved because it did not clear 4.5:1 and it carries 12px ages. **And the i18n pipeline.** Locale in the path, because a locale that lives in a cookie gives one URL two bodies. ICU MessageFormat, hand-written for the subset this site uses, refusing what it does not implement rather than rendering something plausible. CLDR plural rules for the nine tags the site commits to, including the Russian 11 and 12 that end in 1 and 2 and take neither `one` nor `few`. The locked glossary, keyed by context — four ids for "measured", because Russian has four forms of it and English collapses them — each shipping the reason it is locked. A footer switcher that is a select and a submit, so it survives JavaScript being off. hreflang with x-default on the unprefixed address. No locale is offered, and that is the point rather than a gap: the gate is a test, and a locale may not be offered while any locked id is untranslated. Chinese ships first and cannot fail an agreement bug — no gender, no plural inflection, no case — so Russian is wired into CI as a canary that is missing a `few` branch on purpose, and a pseudolocale exercises routing, fallback and the 1.4x width budget without anybody claiming it is a language. UseRouting is now explicit: the auto-inserted one runs before all middleware and resolved the endpoint before the locale prefix had been rewritten away. 680 web tests, 1375 elsewhere, and no horizontal overflow on eight pages at four widths in both themes.

Caution CodeRabbit couldn't update its existing comment. The review summary may be out of date. Error details |
The message layer was a deliberate subset and is now MessageFormat 1.0 entire.
Checked for a library first, because hand-rolling a spec is normally the wrong
answer. ICU4N is an alpha pinned to ICU 60 from 2017, whose CLDR data predates
several of the rules here; the MessageFormat ports are 0.1.x forks of an
abandoned project. .NET's own globalization is ICU-backed but exposes collation
and formatting, not MessageFormat or plural rules. There is nothing to take.
So: ICU's apostrophe quoting in its default mode, which replaces a doubled-brace
escape that was ambiguous with the syntax it appeared in — every argument ends
"...}}" when its last branch closes, and a reader treating those two characters
as one literal walked off the end of the message. selectordinal with its own
rule set, because English cardinal has two forms and English ordinal has four
and one table cannot produce both. offset:, with ICU's split between `=n`
matching the number as written and `#` taking it after the subtraction.
number, date and time with styles and skeletons — uncalled here, but supporting
the grammar is different from supporting the half we use.
And CLDR plural operands, which is the correctness point: 1 is `one` and 1.0 is
`other` in English, the two are the same quantity, and only how the number is
written separates them. An integer-only implementation cannot express that.
Everything is refused at parse time rather than rendered wrong — a selector with
no `other`, a branch keyword no category uses, `choice`, an unbalanced brace —
and every bundle is parsed by a test. Enforcing ICU's mandatory `other` caught
three of my own test patterns and a canary bundle entry on the first run, which
is exactly what it is for.
Underneath, the storage is the arrangement SharpMUSH's portal already uses:
resx, a marker class, AddLocalization over a ResourcesPath, and the SDK
compiling one satellite assembly per culture. What does not transfer is
CompositeFormat — {0} substitutes and cannot agree, so "23 games" would still be
assembled from a number and a noun in C#, which is the concatenation this whole
pipeline exists to remove. The resx values are ICU patterns instead.
The English lives twice, in the resx and compiled in, because the compiled-in
copy is the fallback for every locale and every surface including those rendered
with no host behind them — and a fallback that can fail to load is not one. A
test reads the resx as XML and asserts the two agree in both directions.
Not MessageFormat 2.0: it is stable in CLDR 47 and is where this goes, but it
has no .NET implementation and no translation tool speaks it yet. The
MessagePattern AST is the seam that front end would sit behind.

The switcher was there and drew nothing: it renders only where there is a
choice, English was the only shipped locale, and one option is not a control.
So there was no button to find.
Four machine-translated locales now — German, Dutch, Chinese, Japanese —
produced by subagents against the locked glossary, with the plural categories
each language actually has: two for German and Dutch, one for Chinese and
Japanese. They are LocaleStatus.MachineTranslated, which is the handoff's own
third tier: reachable, never *offered*. No Accept-Language answer, no hreflang
alternate and no default sends a reader to one. Promotion to Shipped is a person
reading them against Glossary.cs, and the test guarding Offered is what stops
that happening by an edit to an enum.
Every page in one carries the ◆ notice saying a machine wrote its words — the
glyph that already means derived, so a returning reader recognises the claim
without learning a symbol. Its second clause is load-bearing and true: the
measured values are unaffected, because the machine voice carries
translate="no" and never enters the pipeline. A test asserts it rather than
trusting it, along with the one that matters most — that the four kinds of
absence stayed four different phrases in every translation, which is the failure
the glossary exists to prevent and the one a translation engine walks into.
And the reason none of it could have worked: InvariantGlobalization was true
solution-wide. That is a runtime switch that removes ICU entirely — every
culture but the invariant one is an invalid identifier, GetCultureInfo("en")
throws, and satellite assemblies can never resolve, because resolving one is a
culture lookup. The four resx files compiled correctly and were unreachable,
which is the worst shape a bug takes: it builds, it ships, and every reader gets
English. It is set per executable, so the crawler running in-process inherits
real globalization now; the 1375 tests across Crawl, Crawler, Catalog and
Discovery are what say the parsers did not notice.
The switcher also lists the pseudolocale and the CI canary in a development
build, because a control with one option cannot be reviewed at all.
The Find page review from the third handoff bundle is in
docs/2026-08-17-find-page-qa.md. No code changed for it.

The locale machinery shipped with 38 ids, so a reader switching to German got a German footer and an English site. This lifts the rest of the visible chrome — nav, filter panel, facet vocabulary, sort orders, game-page headings, capability matrix — to 198 ids read through Messages/ICU, and threads the locale tag through FacetWords, ActiveFilters and PlainText so the text mirror answers in the same language as the page it mirrors. Drops the machine-translation banner. The honesty it carried is better served by what the site declines to do than by a strip above every page. Restores three sentences the extraction had collapsed into one: an unreachable game, a game with too few counts to take a median of, and a game with nothing countable in the window are three different facts, and the two that were lost each said in their own words that they are not a measured zero (rule 4). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
/find was a form aimed at /games: every option unselected whatever the URL said, so an answered Find page did not exist — it could not be linked, did not survive reload and, the reason it had to change, could not be counted. There was no server-side instant at which a set of answers existed, so every number on the page was marginal and no two of them could be combined by eye. It now binds its own querystring through the listing's own binding, and the panel draws one number: the size of the listing those answers produce, from the pass that would list them. Never the product of the marginals beside the options — the prototype this was drawn from multiplies marginal ratios, which assumes the answers are independent and is wrong whenever they are not. The figure on the loosen button is a counted listing too. The rest, in one pass because they are one page: every option is a link with a 40px target and its own count; the silent bucket is selectable and keeps its per-facet word; "what kind of game" asks lineage, which is the derived grouping the catalogue already owns, and every question carries the evidence badge that says which of the three it is; TLS appears once, and "MSSP— server self-description" and "1 games" are gone with the concatenations that made them. ?plain=1 and the rendered page are two renderers over one FindScreen, so the two surfaces can no longer disagree about what may be asked. The page's own copy is in the message bundle, questions included, and the locale is a parameter of the construction rather than something applied to what it returns — a translation applied afterwards would reach one surface and not the other, which is the split just closed. Divergences, each written down in the QA doc: no aria-live (the count is server-side, so the round trip replaces the live region); headings rather than legends (there are no form controls for a legend to name); the dark-games default is the listing's, with the claim that nothing is filtered deleted instead; uncounted stays. At 860px and below the panel stacks as a wrapping row in document order — it was briefly a two-column bar that put the call to action first to the eye and fourth to the keyboard. Verified at 1440/1024/768/430 in both themes and at /de/find: no horizontal overflow, 24/14/24 rhythm on all six questions, one answer chosen in each, and the count and the submit in view with the viewport at the last question.

German, Dutch, Japanese and Simplified Chinese go from 38 ids to all 198 — the whole visible chrome rather than the footer and the glossary. Translated by four subagents working from one brief: the five rules the copy encodes, the locked protocol and codebase names, the CLDR plural categories each language actually has, and the length envelope of a nav bar. `<html lang>` was the constant "en" under every one of them. Unicode unified thousands of Han characters across Chinese and Japanese, the correct drawn form differs, and `lang` is the only thing that selects between the two font families — so the two locales this site shipped first were being rendered by a browser told they were English, at exactly the same width, which is why no measurement caught it. It is also what a screen reader picks a voice from and what the hreflang links in the head are claiming. Two things the German bar found, at 430px: The collapsed nav is one word and a chevron, and `flex: 1 1 auto; min-width: 0` let flexbox squeeze it to 33px — "Men", chevron cut off, on the only control that reaches the other six pages. The ends are sized by their content, so a longer word at either end came out of the one item that must never shrink. And the theme control's own label was `display: none` below 900px while the form still named itself with `aria-labelledby` pointing at it, so a screen reader met three unnamed buttons at exactly the width where the surrounding words are gone too. Out of the drawing, still in the accessibility tree. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Every threshold in the nav's degradation ladder was a pixel count, and every one of them was really a measurement of English. The seven catalogue links are 430px in English and 517px in Japanese, so 860 was the width at which the *English* bar stops fitting — German, Dutch and Japanese spent the whole 861–1100 band with links running out of their box, at 1024, which is one of the four widths this design is reviewed at. English was clipping between 861 and 875 for the same reason: the number was set by eye. `max-content` is the browser's own answer to "how wide is this text, in this language, in this font", so the nav asks for what its links need and `flex-wrap` gives it a row of its own the moment the bar cannot. No number to keep in step with a translation, nothing to re-tune when a string changes, and a language nobody has measured yet is right on arrival. The same wrap covers the narrowest phone, where the German theme control had been clipped past `.shell`'s `overflow-x: clip` — not cramped but gone, with no way to change the theme at all. The trade is a two-row bar rather than a menu in that band: every destination stays visible and in the same order, and the row that moves is the one that was being clipped. Below the collapse width it is still one disclosure, because a menu is the right shape on a phone whatever the language. The Find page's 44 new ids are translated into all four locales, so all 242 are complete in de, nl, ja and zh-Hans. Verified: 8 pages x 5 locales x 5 widths x 2 themes with no overflow and the right `lang` on every document; no backward tab jumps across 3 pages x 3 locales x 4 widths; 2,115 tests over five suites.

ActivitySummary was the last surface on the site that answered in English whatever the reader had asked for. It spelled numbers into words from an English array, chose "has" or "have" by an English rule, pluralised "evening" by adding an s, and named the seven days from strings compiled into the component — four facts about English rather than about the measurement, and none of them in a file a translator is ever sent. Every sentence is an ICU message now: 62 new ids, one per fact, with the counts as plural arguments so a language that has one form or three gets the one it has. The day names come from CultureInfo by way of Locales.CultureOf, mapping this codebase's Monday-is-0 to .NET's Sunday-is-0 arrays. CellValue reads the glossary's own locked state.notMeasured and state.notCounted rather than writing the two words a second time, so no locale can collapse them into one phrase without failing a test. The three states stay three in every language, and the third still names no cause: an hour with no presence row covers an hour we could not reach and an hour we never dialled alike, and no branch of any message here says otherwise. Threaded through the heatmap component, the read-as-text table and the ?plain=1 mirror. The four locale bundles are untouched — the new ids fall back to English, which is what a fallback is for — so a German page today reads English sentences with German day names, German column headings and German provenance words. Web 764/764, Catalog 499/499. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

- Around line 11-27: Update the explanatory comment near InvariantGlobalization
to remove the stale numeric test-count assertion, replacing it with a
non-numeric description of the relevant test coverage; leave the setting and
surrounding rationale unchanged.
In `@docs/2026-08-17-find-page-qa.md`:
- Around line 325-330: Update the localization statement in the section
beginning “The page's own copy is in the message bundle” to reflect that
Messages.zh-Hans.resx contains translated find.* values; do not claim all
satellite .resx files are untouched or that the new Find ids universally fall
back to English.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Components/ActiveFilters.cs`:
- Line 33: Update the active-filter chip labels in the component containing the
tag parameter so search, archived, adult, and included labels use localized
message IDs resolved through tag instead of literal English strings. Add the
required message IDs and preserve the existing chip behavior.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Components/FindScreen.cs`:
- Around line 441-454: Update the client option splitting in the method
containing the ordered options and FindQuestion construction to promote a chosen
option into the first OptionsShown entries, matching the existing Split behavior
used by other questions. Ensure the chosen option is not removed from both
Options and Tail, while preserving the current ordering and hiding unchosen
overflow options from Tail.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Components/Pages/FindAGame.razor`:
- Around line 249-252: Cache the parsed query collection once per render in a
field initialized by OnParametersSetAsync, using Nav.Uri there instead of
reparsing through Query. Update Plain, Text, and Carried to read from the cached
collection, preserving their existing values and foreach behavior.
- Around line 235-242: Update the card-footer links in FindAGame to render their
labels through Say(...): use footer.allGames for “all games,” nav.random or
listing.random for “random game,” and a11y.plainText for “plain text,” while

In `@src/MUI.Web/Components/Pages/Game.razor`:
- Around line 546-552: Update PlainText.Render and PlainText.RenderHome to

In `@src/MUI.Web/Components/PlainText.cs`:
- Around line 935-939: Update Answer to pass the composed option label/count
line and the Href line through the existing Wrap mechanism, preserving the
current checkbox and indentation formatting while ensuring both rendered lines
stay within the 80-column Columns limit.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Localization/IcuMessage.cs`:
- Line 34: Document the cache-safety contract for the public Format and Compile
APIs with an XML remark stating that pattern arguments must be literal or
resource-sourced and must not be derived from request data; keep Parsed

- Line 64: Update the redirect construction in the locale-routing logic to use
context.Request.Path.ToUriComponent() when assigning the path used in Location
targets, while retaining the decoded path value for segment matching. Apply this
consistently to the redirects associated with the path variable and the targets
at the referenced redirect branches.
- Around line 88-102: Restrict the locale redirects in the no-prefix routing
flow around Locales.Find and Preferred to GET and HEAD requests only. Ensure
POST requests, including the /locale form submission handled by MapPost, bypass
both remembered-locale and preferred-language redirects while preserving
existing redirect behavior for GET and HEAD.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Localization/Locales.cs`:
- Around line 185-207: Update Locales.UsePreview in
src/MUI.Web/Localization/Locales.cs:185-207 to allow the initial value only once
and reject subsequent conflicting values instead of silently changing Preview.

pattern.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Localization/MessagePattern.cs`:
- Around line 384-401: Update Selector so an explicit-value selector requires at
least one digit after the optional '='; reject a bare '=' with FormatException,
while preserving the existing parsing of category selectors and valid numeric
explicit selectors.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Localization/PluralOperands.cs`:
- Around line 101-104: Update PluralOperands.Of(long), Of(decimal), and Format
so the original sign is retained separately from absolute operands, and Format
renders the signed value using the supplied culture with its appropriate
grouping. Make the {n, number} handling in IcuMessage consistent with the same
grouping policy so # and number render identical quantities.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Localization/PluralRules.cs`:
- Around line 177-178: Update the Turkish cardinal rule in PluralRules to return
PluralCategory.One only when o.N equals 1m; return PluralCategory.Other for zero
and all other values, including fractions below 1.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Resources/Messages.de.resx`:
- Around line 66-68: Update the German localization entries window.samples,
sort.window.median, and sort.window.peak so their day unit is localized instead
of using the English “d”; use the existing “Tage” wording consistently with the
bundle’s other window message.
In `@src/MUI.Web/Resources/Messages.ja.resx`:

In `@tests/MUI.Web.Tests/IcuMessageTests.cs`:
- Around line 55-92: Add TUnit cases in the plural-message tests covering a
value above one thousand and a negative value, asserting the exact output
produced by the plural # placeholder, including the chosen group-separator
behavior and preservation of the negative sign. Keep the existing English
cardinal tests unchanged and follow the project’s existing TUnit test style.
In `@tests/MUI.Web.Tests/LocalizationTests.cs`:
- Around line 539-554: Update ResxMessages to locate the repository root by

…ved the page The heatmap's 62 new ids are translated into German, Dutch, Japanese and Simplified Chinese, so all 304 are complete in all four. Two translators raised the same thing and were right to: English uses "quiet" for two facts. The activity band means "reachable, count unreadable" and the hour beside "busiest" means "fewest players counted", and a locale that translated both with its word for the uncounted state would file a measured-low hour as an hour we could not read. They are different words now in German and Dutch, which is S7's whole point — the ids are granular past what English needs because English is the one language that cannot tell them apart. And the game page scrolled sideways on a phone, for a reason nothing on it could show you. `.sr-only` is `position: absolute`, and inside `.table-wrap` it had no positioned ancestor — so the text a screen reader reads out of the capability matrix was laid out at the matrix's own width, 463px in German, outside the scroller and outside `.shell`'s clip. Five spans nobody can see pushed the document 59px past a 360px viewport, and the whole page scrolled to reveal nothing. Visually hidden is not out of the layout; one `position: relative` is what makes it invisible in both directions. The overflow audit now covers the game page and a windowed ranking, and measures what a reader can actually do — window.scrollX after scrolling right — rather than scrollWidth, which the clip was hiding this from. It also stops flagging a <pre> inside a scroller, which was burying the one element that was losing content. Verified: 10 pages x 5 locales x 5 widths x 2 themes, no overflow and the right lang on every document; no backward tab jumps; 2,126 tests over five suites.

Two sweeps: the pseudo-locale finds anything that never went through the message pipeline, and a German-against-English diff finds what did but came back the same. The second is the one that counts — the first reports Mon/Tue as untranslated because qps-ploc shares English CLDR data, and those day names are German in German. 388 strings, and the game page's 228 of them are four messages: the trend chart draws one SVG title per day. /about, /rankings, /ecosystem and /archive were never touched. Two shapes cross every page — the relative-date tooltip and the provenance chip, which is also leaking an enum's ToString as "Mssp". Reference articles stay out of scope with a reason, not by omission. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two findings from CodeRabbit's re-review, both raised by the fixes before them. `CellWidth` was added to report a screen's width in cells — two for a wide glyph, none for a combining mark — and `Layout` beside it still advanced one column per UTF-16 unit. Three disagreements: a screen of CJK wrapped after eighty runes, which is a hundred and sixty cells; an astral rune counted twice, for the two units it is stored in rather than the one glyph it draws; and a combining mark claimed a cell it never draws in. Now a rune at a time, and a double-width glyph that would straddle the right margin moves whole to the next line, which is what a terminal does rather than splitting a character across the wrap. That corrects two tests written this session against the old model. They asserted a row of seventy-nine ASCII characters and one Han glyph is eighty-one cells — which cannot be a row of an eighty-column terminal at all. The example came from the finding and encoded an impossible screen; the assertions now use the widest row that can exist, and a second case pins where the straddling glyph goes. And the random-game empty state was still English under a localized preview. Its sentence holds two links, so it is one message with two markers the page walks rather than English glued round anchors — a language that wants the archive named first, or a different preposition before each, writes that and the page follows. The markers are private-use code points and the anchors are built here, so what a bundle holds stays text: formatting anchors into the string and trusting them through a MarkupString would make every translation a place to put a tag.

CodeRabbit caught both, and one of them is mine from this afternoon. The cross-locale claim walked `Locales.All.Where(l => l.IsChoosable)`, and a locale is not choosable until its bundle is complete — so the set is allowed to shrink to English alone, and then a loop whose comment says "in every language" proves the English pair differs from itself and passes. It now walks every locale the site has a bundle for and asserts the set is bigger than one, so it cannot go quiet. Proved it bites rather than assuming: collapsing `listing.count.none` onto `state.notCounted` in the German bundle fails the test, and restoring it passes. That is the exact mistake a translator would make and the reason the two ids exist. The game page's in-page link sweep iterated the `href="#..."` matches and asserted nothing when there were none. The page has them today; if it stops having them the sweep should fail rather than become a test of nothing. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The locale is in the path so that it is linkable, shareable, cacheable and indexable — and every link on the page threw it away. Each internal address was written absolute and emitted verbatim, so /de/games rendered href="/games", href="/about", href="/find". A reader who follows a shared /de/… link carries no cookie, so the middleware could not send them back: their first click landed in English, and a reader who chose German deliberately from an English-speaking browser lost it immediately. LocaleRouting.Link is the one place that answers it, called at the last thing that touches an address before it becomes an attribute rather than at each of the dozen producers — ListingLinks, FindScreen, the facet panel, the reference library — because threading a locale through those would leave the next producer to remember. It reads the locale off LocaleOf() and not off Request.PathBase: the two agree on every request that arrives with a prefix and disagree on the one that does not, where a page answered from the cookie would link to English while reading German. Left exactly as they arrived: anything not starting with '/' — a query-only "?plain=1", which means this page asked differently and is relative to it on purpose — anything starting "//", and IsUnlocalized's set, which is now shared rather than copied. Ninety-one call sites across twenty-two components, plus the two plain-text renderers: those print paths a reader types, follows or pastes, so they are links in every sense that matters and carry the prefix too. Three defects the markup could not show, all found by walking the site with no cookie. "Surprise me" is in the nav of every page and answered /de/games/random with Location: /g/eldertale. The theme control posted to /theme and came back to /games, so a German reader lost German for preferring a light background. And every reference article was "no reference page here" in every locale but English: the page looked itself up by NavigationManager.Uri, whose local path still carries the prefix the middleware had moved into PathBase. Tests: a German page's every anchor and form action swept over eleven pages, the source locale's absence of a prefix, the unlocalized set, a query-only address, the plain surface, and the redirects. The sweep failed on all eleven before this; the naive fix that prefixes everything fails nineteen of the others. 905 pass. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
There were two tiers: Shipped, which Accept-Language could reach and hreflang named, and MachineTranslated, which had every word translated and was reachable only by somebody who found the switcher. German, Dutch, Japanese and Chinese sat in the second one, so a German browser was answered in English and the site emitted no rel="alternate" at all — search engines had no idea the four existed. The distinction was worth drawing while the site told readers about it. The notice that did so was removed as unnecessary, and what was left was a promise the site made to itself, paid for by four languages nobody could find. The gate that matters survives and is now the only one: a locale is offered when its bundle carries the locked glossary, which is a fact about the bundle rather than a claim about who read it — the kind of gate the rest of this codebase keeps. All four already satisfied it; every one of the 25 locked strings was translated. Now: de-DE,de;q=0.9,en;q=0.8 lands on /de/games, and every page carries six hreflang alternates including x-default. A review locale is still never offered — nothing may send a reader to a pseudolocale by their browser's settings. And the switcher is drawn in the site's own vocabulary rather than the platform's. It was a native dropdown and a wide "change language" button: two heavy rectangles in a footer that is otherwise text, in three different shades depending on the OS. Now one hairline box holding the choice and its submit — the shape the search field already taught the reader — with the nav's chevron for a caret and the search's arrow to commit. `field-sizing: content` sizes it to the language in force rather than to the longest name in the list, which had left the caret a hand's width from its word. Stripping `appearance` takes the platform's focus ring with it, so the ring is drawn round the box and `select` joins the elements the house rule covers.

A reader with a locale cookie paid a redirect for the stylesheet, the script and
the touch icon on every page load. The unlocalized set was a list of paths, and
the stylesheet's path carries a content fingerprint — /app.gt0hup1p9v.css — which
changes whenever the bytes do, so no list could ever hold it.
Recognised by extension now. An allowlist rather than "the last segment has a
dot", because {Slug} is a route parameter and a game's slug is not this rule's to
make promises about; a game called foo.css would still be wrong, and wrong by one
missing prefix rather than by a 404, because a request that is not redirected
still reads its locale from the cookie.

The section's furniture answered every reader in English whatever they asked for: the heading, the lede, the four section labels, the measured panels' headings and prose, the client matrix's three state words, both table's column headers, the empty states and the plain-text link. Fifty-one ids, appended as one marked block so a parallel append merges rather than collides. The articles themselves stay out of the bundle. A document is translated as a document by the content layer, and a string in a bundle is not one — so this renders whichever article the library hands it and puts no word of its own inside it. The proof is the pseudo-locale: on /qps-ploc/reference every word the site writes comes back bracketed and the article body comes back plain. Three things worth naming: - Protocol acronyms never reach a locale. MSSP, GMCP, TTYPE and the codebase and client names arrive as message arguments or sit in the markup, and a test walks every id this section owns in every choosable bundle to keep it so. A translated TTYPE is destroyed evidence rather than a localized string. - The client matrix's "unknown" is its own id, distinct from the "no" beside it and from the game pages' measured capability words: it means we read the project's documentation and did not establish the answer, and a locale that let it collapse would publish our gap as the client's absence. The caveat quotes the word as an argument so the sentence and the cells cannot drift. - "Measured, never asserted" and the protocol page's remainder caveat keep their distinctions as ids rather than as prose a translator can shorten. Sentences.Place is one file where there were about to be two: a message that places a link or an emphasis puts a private-use marker and the markup walks it, so a translator writes text and no bundle is a place a tag can be put. The random-game empty state moves onto it unchanged. Tests assert the fact through Messages.For rather than the English wording, which is what lets a translator choose a better word without editing a test.

The 39 articles were English in every locale, recorded as a deliberate boundary. That decision is reversed: they are being translated, and this is where a translation goes. An article's translation lives at content/reference/<tag>/<same-name>.md and is embedded beside the English. `ReferenceLibrary.For(tag)` hands out that locale's documents with per-article fallback, so a missing translation is served in English rather than withheld — a page in the wrong language still answers the question and a missing one does not. **A translation supplies prose and nothing else, by construction.** The document handed out is the English record with only Title, Summary and Body replaced, so the slug, the kind, the see-also graph, the home link and the protocol name always come from one file in one language. A slug is a URL and a URL has one page; that is now true because the code cannot express anything else, rather than because forty files are asked to agree. A translator can write whatever they like in their front matter and the routing will not notice. The English pass ignores the locale directories by shape rather than by a list: the file names carry dashes and never dots, so everything between `.reference.` and `.md` is one segment for a source article and two for a translation. `zh-Hans` survives that, its dash not being a separator here. Proved before dispatching anybody: a German protocol-mssp served the German body, an untranslated gmcp fell back to English, and the English article was unchanged.

The chrome agent could not compile against ReferenceLibrary.For — the loader was uncommitted in my tree while it worked — so it did the right thing instead: it reduced each page to exactly one place where the library is resolved, named the call in a comment, and left everything round it already threading Tag. The switch was one expression per file. Verified end to end rather than assumed: /de/reference/codebases/aresmush serves "AresMUSH ist der neueste weit verbreitete Server, der ausdrücklich auf gemeinsames Rollenspiel setzt", and an article with no translation yet still answers in English under the same chrome.

Seventy-eight articles, the whole section twice: 11,978 words each into German and Dutch, by four translators working from the site's own 768-string bundle as their glossary. The reference explains the vocabulary the interface uses, so where the two could disagree the reference would be teaching a word the site does not say. They held the distinctions the prose exists to draw. German kept "abgeleitet" for the third provenance register and wrote "Tatsachen aus MSSP" rather than spend it on a sentence about MSSP; Dutch did the same with "afgeleid" and reserved it for lineage. Both rendered "checking that a game is up" without the banned register — "ob ein Spiel antwortet" — because reachable is measured and up is not. Both kept connect screen and login screen as two different things, which the English distinguishes and a careless translation would merge. The structural invariant is now a test rather than a promise. The loader already makes it unbreakable at runtime — a translation supplies title, summary and body and nothing else reaches a page — but the file on disk is what a person edits next, and a front matter that disagrees with the English is a trap set for whoever reads it later. The test walks the files, which is the only place the difference shows, and it finds the repository root by walking up rather than by counting directories. Proved it bites: pointing a German see-also at a different page fails it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The owner dashboard and the claim flow were the last two page surfaces
written in English whatever language they were asked for. 118 ids, appended
in one marked block at the end of the English dictionary and mirrored into
Messages.resx; the four satellites are untouched, so every new id falls back
to English until the translation round.
The ids keep the distinctions the copy exists to make. An owner's answer is
DECLARED and never measured; a claim is a fact about our records and never a
measurement of the game; an opt-out is honoured rather than a deletion, and
the empty hours it leaves name no cause. Each is stated on the id so a
translator is briefed rather than guessing. The register stays second person,
because these pages address a game's operator directly.
Real ICU wherever something is interpolated: the co-owner line, the owner
count on the claim page and the transfer warning all agree inside the
message rather than by picking a branch in C#. Sentences that carry a link,
a code span or an emphasis place their own markers and the markup walks the
runs, so a bundle holds text and never a tag — RandomGame invented that and
kept it private, and it is now Sentence.Place with three callers.
Machine voice stays out: game names, the claim token, MSSP variables, the
DNS label, registry field names, the confirmation word the resign form
compares against, and the badge's own text — quoted from PlayerBadge now
rather than retyped, because a badge answers one address to everybody. The
claim page's accepted MSSP spellings come from ClaimTokenBeacon for the same
reason; it had listed two of the three by hand.
Found while rendering: Razor drops the whitespace on a line that opens a
code block, so three sentences ran together ("...not an hour of
reachability.If a line below..."). Each placed sentence now sits in its own
span. The dashboard also rendered game names bare, which GameName exists to
prevent.
Tests assert the fact through Messages.For rather than pasted English. The
outcome table gained the four §11 and listing arms that were added to
OwnerWrites and never to it — the exact omission its own remark describes.
Both pages get a pseudo-locale sweep on the state that renders the most of
them, and a German request is asserted to get German wherever German exists,
gated on HasOwn so it holds now and after the translations land.
927/927 pass.

…once # Conflicts: # src/MUI.Web/Localization/Messages.cs # src/MUI.Web/Resources/Messages.resx
…id not work Seventy-eight more articles: the whole section again in Japanese and Simplified Chinese. Four locales, 156 files, 48,000 words. Chinese loaded none of them and nobody would have noticed. MSBuild builds a manifest resource name out of the file's path and replaces what cannot appear in an identifier, so content/reference/zh-Hans/ is embedded as …reference.zh_Hans.… and a lookup spelled with the dash matched nothing. The articles were in the assembly, correct and complete, and every Chinese page served the English — which is precisely what the per-article fallback is for and precisely why it hid this. German, Dutch and Japanese all worked. Three locales passing is the evidence that conceals a fourth failing, so the tests name zh-Hans rather than iterating over "a locale" and hoping the interesting one is in the list. Proved both bite by putting the dash back: they fail, and only for zh-Hans. The second test is the one that matters more. The loader falls back per article so a gap is invisible on the page — right for a reader, wrong for us, because a file that failed to be written would look exactly like a file nobody meant to write. It now asserts every article differs from its English in every offered locale. Japanese and Chinese made the same call the other two did, unprompted: MSSP-derived facts became 「MSSPから得た事実」 and 来自 MSSP 的事实, keeping 導出 and 推算 for the provenance register the site actually means. Both kept connect screen and login screen apart, as the English does. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The sweep doc still said the reference articles were deliberately out of scope. They are all translated now, so the section is rewritten — but kept as a record of a decision rather than replaced, because the argument for it was sound and the outcome was still wrong. What it missed: the alternative was never "no translation", it was "the reference is English for four readers out of five" — the section that exists to teach the vocabulary the rest of the interface uses. A reader who cannot read the explanation of measured versus declared is worse served by a careful silence than by a translation somebody may later improve. It now also records how the thing is arranged, including the trap: zh-Hans is named explicitly in the tests because MSBuild replaces the dash in a manifest resource name, and Chinese served English on every page while three other locales worked.

173 ids — the reference chrome, the owner's dashboard, the claim flow — complete the set. All 937 are now translated into German, Dutch, Japanese and Simplified Chinese, and with the 156 reference articles beside them the site has nothing left that answers in English to a reader who asked for something else. Each translator was handed its own reference articles as the register to match, because the chrome frames that prose and the two reading as different translations is the seam a reader notices first. Three catches worth the record, none of them prompted: Dutch refused the obvious verb for giving up a claim. "Opgeven" is the word six rounds have locked to *declared*, so using it would have collided with the site's first rule on the one page where an owner could be misled about what we publish about them — "afstand doen van" instead, and a third word for a counter-claim revoking an old one. Japanese found a register seam I had not thought about: its reference articles are ですます and the UI corpus is plain form. Rather than pick one and create a join, it kept the chrome plain — it renders through the same templates as /about — and took only terminology across. Chinese rendered "measured, never asserted" as 实测，绝非断言, taking 断言 from its own MSSP article rather than collapsing *asserted* into 自述, which stays reserved for *declared*. And German wrote a round-specific verifier rather than trusting the shared one: 118 owner-facing ids in Sie with none informal, 51 reference ids with none in second person, and six deletion words each mirroring an English "deleted" — because on these pages an opt-out is honoured and nothing is destroyed. Verified: 13 pages x 5 locales x 5 widths x 2 themes with no overflow and the right lang on every document; 2,306 tests over five suites. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The handoff's last panel group, WHAT WE COULD MEASURE: two independent switches over the two reasons a listing row carries no number. They are two FacetChoice fields and not values of `band`, because they are orthogonal — a reader narrowing by genre has to be able to drop either without spending the one selection an exclusive scale has. `uncounted` is emphatically not `band=quiet`. That rung holds a game measured at nought every hour beside a game whose every count was unreadable, because neither has a count above nought this week; they are opposite facts and only one of them is a measurement of theirs. The distinction was already in the table — presence_sample.count IS NULL beside an UnmeasurableReason — and only the listing's digest was throwing it away. It now counts the week's readable and unreadable rows separately, and uncounted is "rows exist and none is readable". A game with no rows at all is neither: that is §5.4's third state and it names no cause. `unreachable` reads game.last_reachable_at, which the availability intervals write, and never a hole in the presence series — intervals can tell an hour we could not reach from an hour we never probed, and a gap cannot. It is not the archive, which is a decision of ours with its own switch. Found on the way: facet.band.quiet was labelled "uncounted" in English, which is the locked glossary's word for the opposite fact, and it would have named a second control on the same panel returning a different set. The band now names its threshold. The four satellites carried a translation of the old wrong word, so those entries are dropped and fall back to the corrected English until they are translated. The demo fixture gains Hollow Bell — dark, not archived — because every other silent game in it was archived, so the whole of the unreachable facet sat behind the archive switch and the `dark` rung had nobody on it. With Eldertale's measured nought and Midnight Sun's unreadable count that is three rows that look alike and three different facts, which is what the switches exist to keep apart. Both facts are derived from the fixture's own grid rather than declared beside it, so the panel cannot contradict the heatmap. Also: the plain surface drew "only these" and "anything but these" with one star, which is the defect the rendered panel was rebuilt to remove, left on the surface with the least else to go on — three marks now, with a key. And FacetSurfaceTests fingerprinted a filter from a hand-written roll-call of its members, in a test whose whole job is to catch a member added in one place and forgotten in another; it reads the type now.

The eight ids behind `WHAT WE COULD MEASURE`, in German, Dutch, Japanese and Simplified Chinese. All 944 are complete in all four again. Seven of the eight were new. The eighth was a correction: `facet.band.quiet` had been labelled "uncounted" in English — the glossary's word for the opposite fact — so the panel was about to carry two controls sharing a word and returning different games. The four satellites held a translation of that wrong word and were deleted rather than left saying something knowingly false. Every translator was told only that their word for *uncounted* must not appear in the corrected string. Each found a second collision I had not warned about, in their own bundle: de "keine Zählung" is already *no count readable* → nie mehr als 0 gezählt nl "geen telling" likewise → nooit boven 0 geteld ja 計数なし is already listing.count.none → 計数は0を超えず zh 未能计数 stays on the uncounted row → 没有高于 0 的计数 All four reached for the same shape: assert that counting happened and never exceeded nought, rather than negate a count — because every available negation was already spoken for by the row above. Each anchored *quiet* on the word its own bundle had settled (ruhig, rustig, 閑散, 冷清) and kept the em-dash form of its sibling `facet.band.dark`. Verified across all four: no locale's quiet string contains its own word for uncounted, unreachable, or no-count-readable. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Both from CodeRabbit, both real, and the second one turned out to be two defects. `/games/random` marked itself and `/games`. A section matches its own root and everything under it — that is what makes a reference article mark "reference" — but /games/random is its own destination in the same bar, so a screen reader was handed two aria-current="page" markers in one document. The most specific match wins now, and a test walks four paths asserting exactly one marker each. The facet counts were --faint, which was raised to 4.8:1 once already against the *page* background. The panel is a more recessed surface than the page: the same token measures 4.09:1 in dark and 4.37:1 in light there, carried by the smallest number in the panel. They are --dim now, which the page already had. Measuring that properly found a worse one underneath. A selected row paints a 12% wash of the accent behind accent-coloured words, and --accent is tuned against the page too — 5.0:1 there, 3.9:1 on its own tint, on the row the reader has just clicked. --accent-ink is that colour for that background, and only light needs a different value. Then the fix broke dark, which is the part worth writing down. The light *media* block sets --accent-ink unconditionally, and [data-theme="dark"] redeclares every other token precisely so a pinned theme survives a contradicting system preference — this one was missed, so a reader who pinned dark on a light-preferring system got a dark green on a dark tint at 2.7:1, worse than the value it was added to fix. Measured after each step rather than reasoned about: 41 samples per theme, alpha layers composited rather than compared against a translucent colour, and zero below 4.5:1 in either.

/find has been returning 500 to every visitor. The page renders once before
its data arrives, and what it held at that moment was null:
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at MUI.Web.Components.Pages.FindAGame.BuildRenderTree(RenderTreeBuilder __builder)
in /src/src/MUI.Web/Components/Pages/FindAGame.razor:line 59
Line 59 is `@if (Screen.Error is { } problem)`, the first thing under the
heading. ComponentBase.CallOnParametersSetAsync starts OnParametersSetAsync,
calls StateHasChanged, and only then awaits — so there is always a frame drawn
from the fields the component had before the load. `Screen` was declared
`= null!` on the promise that the load would have finished by then, and that
promise only holds while the load finishes inside its own first turn.
Which is exactly the difference between the fixture and Postgres. Every task
FixtureGameQueries hands back is already complete, so in the tests the first
frame and the last frame are the same frame and the null is never seen. Against
a real database the load suspends, the interim frame is drawn from the initial
state, and the page throws before it writes a byte. #89 moved this load from
OnInitializedAsync to OnParametersSetAsync, which is where the two hooks differ:
the init path renders the interim frame only when it has already suspended,
CallOnParametersSetAsync renders it unconditionally.
So: FindScreen.Empty, and Screen starts there. Nothing renders from it — no
questions, no answers, a count of zero, all of which the page's own conditionals
already read as "say nothing yet" — and the built screen replaces it before the
response is written. This is the shape the listing has always had in
GameListing.Empty; Find was the one page holding a null instead.
The test that was missing is the one that renders a page mid-load at all, so
Render.PageAsync grows a `yielding` option that puts one Task.Yield in front of
the catalogue. With it the new test reproduces the production stack frame for
frame; without it the page passes while broken. It is worth reaching for on any
page test that means to assert a page renders, not just this one.

Both changes in 2.11 land on code this branch touches, so this was verified against live servers rather than on a green suite alone: #89 charset: report the encoding change on both sides, and label a line by the encoding it arrived in #90 prompt: read IAC GA as the prompt boundary RFC 854 says it is Neither shifts our behaviour, and for good reason. We deliberately ignore the encoding the OnSubmit callback offers - WireEncoding decides from the bytes, because a server can negotiate one encoding and send another - so relabelling lines upstream cannot move what we record. And we already force a pending line out ourselves in FlushPendingLineAsync, so GA arriving as a boundary finds the line already delivered. Live, against the same hosts probed on 2.10 (structural values byte-identical): mush.pennmush.org:4201 banner 1286 CHARSET+MSSP Count 20 (was 19, live churn) chaos.caile.org:4444 banner 1611 Count 0 aardmud.org:4000 banner 1785 banner count 199 mud.arcadia.net:4000 banner 1382 LoginPrompt (colour gate still answered) The one that mattered most is mud.pkuxkx.net:8080, which negotiates UTF-8 and then sends GBK: still `charset utf-8 (negotiated)` beside `read as iso-8859-1 (Undetermined)`. The bytes are kept whole and the encoding stays honestly undetermined rather than taking the declaration at its word. Not verified, and expected to be an improvement rather than a risk: #90 may make Negotiation.SendsPromptMarkers fire for GA-using servers that previously went unrecorded. That would be a truer measurement, not a changed one, and mui-probe does not surface the flag to check it directly. 2,724 tests green across all five suites.

* feat: LoginPromptGate answers colour/screen-reader prompts with a real keystroke
Replaces BannerGate.IsAnsweredByReturn (a yes/no "does a blind Return answer
this") with LoginPromptGate.Classify, which says *which* bytes answer a
pre-login prompt. Several real games only accept an explicit letter and
re-print the same question at a blind Return, which is why their stored
connect_screen was the raw prompt rather than the game's actual banner.
TelnetProbe/mui-probe are adapted to the new API 1:1 for now; the loop that
lets this drive an actual multi-round conversation lands in a follow-up
commit.
* feat: LoginPromptGate recognises press-enter gates and age checks
Neither shape was ever attempted by the old BannerGate — not because a blank
Return fails against them, but because the classifier didn't recognise them
as gates at all, so the real screen that arrived after the blank Return was
discarded as flush residue and the raw prompt text stored as the connect
screen instead. Recognising the shape is the whole fix.
* feat: TelnetProbe answers pre-login prompts with a bounded, category-aware loop
Phase 1 now classifies whatever newly arrived after each answer and sends
the specific reply LoginPromptGate says resolves it (colour/press-enter/
age-gate so far), instead of the old single blind-flush-then-reinterpret
trick. Bounded by the new ProbeOptions.MaxPromptRounds so a misclassified or
adversarial screen can't spin the probe against itself.
FakeGame gains a general-purpose Replies map (command -> reply, alongside
the existing BlankLineReply) so fixtures can prove the probe sent a specific
answer rather than a blank line.
* feat: LoginPromptGate picks a charset menu's UTF-8 option when one is offered
Roughly half the encoding-menu games surveyed offer a numbered/lettered menu
with a legible UTF-8 option; the rest offer only GB/BIG5 or only Cyrillic
codepages. This only ever answers the first kind — picking between two
non-UTF-8 encodings would be a guess recorded as fact, which rule 5
forbids, so those stay on the existing staff CHARSET override path.
WireEncoding still independently proves the encoding from the bytes that
actually arrive after the menu is answered; this only ever sends a request.
* feat: harvest a who's-online menu option as this probe's WHO reading
Selecting a who's-online menu option doesn't reveal a second screen behind
this one - for BatMUD, ZombieMUD and discworld.starturtle.net the menu
already settled as the banner *is* the game's permanent connect screen. So
it's classified once against that settled screen, its own answer/reply are
kept out of Banner (same as the ordinary WHO phase already is), and the
reply is parsed through the identical WhoParser a literal WHO command uses -
PresenceChoice.From cannot tell which route produced the reading. The later
literal WHO phase is skipped once a menu already answered it, so a stray
"WHO" typed at a menu screen can't corrupt a good reading.
Full five-suite matrix (Catalog/Crawl/Crawler/Discovery/Web) passes with a
real Postgres via Podman, no regressions.
* fix: WhoMenuOptionLinePattern accepts numbered options, dot leaders, and either word order
A deeper manual scan (dedicated player-count sweep across all 900 banners,
6 subagents) found three real menus the lettered-only pattern missed:
eternitymud-com numbers its who's-online option ("2. who is playing")
instead of lettering it; tauros-rebirth uses a dot-leader separator
("[2]....See who is currently logged in."); legendmud's label puts the
connectivity word before "who" instead of after ("...online who can help").
Token now accepts 1-2 digits (matching what ClassifyCharsetMenu already
allows) alongside a single letter, and "who"/the connectivity word are two
independent lookaheads rather than one ordered sequence.
* docs: record the pre-login prompt survey and this plan's deliberate coverage gaps
Two survey passes fed this: the original ~95-game pre-login-prompt sweep
that scoped Tasks 1-5, and a dedicated follow-up sweep specifically for
player-count reveal mechanisms, which found WhoMenu shapes worth fixing now
(numbered options, dot leaders, reversed word order - already committed)
and a larger body of WhoParser/BannerCount vocabulary gaps (non-English
numerals, missing nouns, label-order variants) that's a separate piece of
work from this plan's scope and is recorded here rather than attempted.
Also records that prose "type WHO to see who's online" hints - the single
most common WHO-adjacent shape in the survey - need no code change: the
literal WHO command is already sent unconditionally regardless of banner
text.
* docs: check off completed plan steps and record execution deviations
* fix: two defects only a live server could show
Ran the probe against one real game per category and diffed every result
against a build of origin/main. Two bugs the fixture tests could not reach:
**The wrong menu token.** Real menus put several options on one line -
batmud.bat.org prints "2 - visit the game w - who is playing at the
moment", zombiemud.org prints "[C]reate a new character [W]ho is
playing". Scanning the line for a keyword picked the *first* token on it, so
both games were sent the option before the one meant. Menu lines are now
segmented, and each token judged by its own label; a bracketed letter is
glued back onto its label since "[W]ho" splits the word.
**The flush killed gated DIKUs.** mud.arcadia.net asks a colour question and
is a DIKU. The flush line used to *be* the answer, so the session survived
it; once the loop answers with "y", the game paints and sits at its name
prompt, where the flush reads as a goodbye - WHO went from LoginPrompt to
NotAsked. The answer already flushed the residue the flush exists for, so it
is skipped when a prompt was answered. Arcadia now keeps both the better
banner (1382 chars, was 870) and its WHO attempt.
Verified live, against origin/main:
arcadia 870 chars / LoginPrompt -> 1382 chars / LoginPrompt
harshlands 95 chars, still gated -> 293 chars, cleared
vormud 272 chars / 7 lines -> 4221 chars / 43 lines
penn 19 players, tinymush 0, aardwolf banner count - all unchanged
* feat: read connect-screen counts in the words real games use
The follow-up the survey doc listed as deferred, now measured rather than
guessed: eight real banner strings were put to the parser first, three
already read, five did not. Those five:
Number of players on: 8 nannymud label leads, number trails
Currently On-Line: 12 lusternia hyphenated, no people-noun
There are currently 18 adventurers playing merentha
There are currently 3 people in the realm. primaldarkness
There are currently nine players on. vikingmud worded + bare "on"
Connectivity gains on-line and in the realm; People gains adventurers and
mortals; a worded twin of the bare-"on" shape; and one narrow labelled
alternative requiring noun + "on" + separator + digits, so "on" cannot read
as a preposition.
**wizards/immortals/staff are deliberately NOT people-nouns.** That absence
is what makes zombiemud's "33 mortals and 4 wizards online" read as 33
rather than collide into a refusal - the player figure is the mortal one.
Summing them would be our arithmetic presented as their statement.
Verified live: zombiemud now yields 33 and lusternia 11, both of which
yielded nothing before. Aardwolf/Penn/TinyMUSH unchanged. 2,693 tests green.
* docs: record what the live probing found, and close the deferred item
The vocabulary gap this file listed as deferred is now done; the entry says
so and records what is still deliberately unread (Chinese numerals,
game-specific nouns, role-split counts with no total).
Adds the before/after table from probing one real game per category against
a build of origin/main, the two defects that only live servers exposed, and
the note that a paginated WHO roster must never be row-counted - batmud
would publish 24 of ~130 as a measurement.
* test: pin the mortal figure as the player count across every role-split shape
Confirmed as the intended reading, so it gets tests that will fail loudly if
a future vocabulary change breaks it. All five strings are real, from the
2026-08-20 sweep:
33 mortals and 4 wizards online -> 33 zombiemud
1 wizards and 2 mortals online -> 2 realmsmud (staff stated FIRST)
43 players and 3 immortals online -> 43 erionmud
0 Mortals and 0 Developer(s) Online -> 0 dbu-mmo
0 players and 0 developers logged in -> 0 nirvana
realmsmud is the one that proves order does not matter. The mechanism is
that a staff noun the parser does not know cannot collide with the player
figure, so the sentence resolves rather than being refused - which is why
wizards/immortals/developers must stay out of WhoParser.People.
No source change; behaviour already shipped in c0eb334.
* fix: read a worded zero, and the two zeros a swept corpus proved we dropped
A three-agent manual sweep of all 900 stored banners looking specifically for
zero counts stated as words. The vocabulary is much narrower than guessed -
no "not a soul", no "the realm is empty", no "there are none online". Exactly
three English worded zeros exist:
There is nobody playing right now! icewindmud already read
There is currently nobody in the realm. pd-builders reads only via
"in the realm",
added earlier in
this PR
No-one is playing at the moment. tides-of-darkness BROKEN
The last was dropped because the pattern demanded whitespace after "no" and
the word is hyphenated. A live game with nobody in it was being filed as a
game we could not count - a measured zero rendered as a hatched cell, which
is the failure rule 2 exists to prevent. The separator now admits a hyphen;
it cannot run into "non-" or "none" since a space or hyphen must still
follow.
The sweep also caught a digit zero being dropped: atlasmud.com:4445 says
"There are currently 0 players in the world of Atlas." and "in the world"
was not a connectivity word. Added.
And it caught a trap worth pinning: down.moo.midgard.org:8888 prints a
current count of 1 above a twelve-hour total of 0. Taking the last number on
the screen would publish a false zero for a game with somebody in it. The
existing two-different-figures refusal already protects this - now with a
test that says so.
Chinese 零 also appears, but only ever in the staff slot beside a non-zero
player count ("0 wizards, 685 players"), which the unknown-staff-noun design
already handles. Chinese numerals stay deferred.
* fix: give WHO its own grace, so a throttled answer is read not misfiled
twyst.org:3333 and rupert.twyst.org:6666 both answer a login-screen WHO
after exactly 5.05 seconds - identical to two decimal places across two
games, so it is a deliberate throttle in that codebase, not network weather.
SilenceGrace is 2.5s, so the probe gave up, sent INFO, and the roster
arrived inside the INFO window.
That lost the count twice over. The count itself went unread, and a WHO
roster was recorded as the game's INFO block - our timing published as a
fact about their server (rule 5). LoginCommandReading then reads that
INFO for a player count, so the misfiling was one parser away from being
attributed to the wrong source.
WhoGrace (6s) is spent only where it buys something: a phase that produces
even one line settles on QuietPeriod, so a game answering promptly pays
nothing, and a game that hangs up on the flush is never asked at all. WHO
gets this and INFO/VERSION do not - it is the top rung of the count ladder
(§5.2) and the other two are read only once it and MSSP have failed.
Timeout raised 20s -> 25s to cover the longer worst-case run of graces
(~16.5s). This matters: a budget that expires mid-session leaves the try as
OperationCanceledException, which is deliberately not a HungUp shape, so the
probe is recorded Failed and a connect screen already in hand is discarded.
The headroom keeps a slow-but-answering server off the unreachable list.
Verified live - both talkers now read Count 1, where old and new alike
returned Unknown. Cost measured, not assumed: Penn unchanged at 5.4s,
debomud 1.6s. A 200-target crawl against a clone of the prod database:
0 counts lost, 1 gained, 128 games re-probed.
* fix: staff lines are never a player count, and the wire bound is enforced
Addresses CodeRabbit review on #139. Each finding was reproduced as a
failing test before being fixed.
**A staff-only line published a player count, and worse, a zero.** The
people-noun was optional in both readers, so a pattern could match from the
connectivity word alone: "Wizards online: 4" published 4 *players*, and "No
wizards online" published a measured zero for a game whose staff are all
present - the false zero rule 2 exists to prevent. This undercut the whole
mortals-versus-staff design, which rests on a staff noun being unrecognised.
BannerCount now carries a negative lookbehind for staff roles, placed
immediately before the connectivity word: putting it at the start of the
pattern did not work, because a leading \s* let the match begin before the
space and step around the guard. WhoParser's no-players shape now requires
"nobody", "no-one", or a recognised people noun after "no".
**The age gate answered "no" to an adult confirmation.** AgeGatePattern
matched "Are you of legal age?", where "no" declines the game rather than
reaching its connect screen. This category has one fixed answer, so the
inverse phrasing must not enter it at all; "of legal age" was speculative
anyway - no surveyed game asks it.
**The whole-wire contract was stated too broadly.** PermittedCommands is
documented as the complete set of text sent, but classified answers ("y",
"no", menu tokens) are not on it. Adds IsPermittedPromptAnswer - at most two
alphanumeric characters - enforced at both send sites rather than merely
described, so the guarantee survives a category being added later. The
permitted-commands test now runs over gated sessions too; before, it only
ever exercised a session that answered no prompts.
Also: mui-probe no longer reports a harvested WhoMenu as "still a gate,
unanswered"; three documentation corrections (pkuxkx is skipped for want of
a parseable menu structure, not for want of a UTF-8 option; literal WHO is
not sent unconditionally now that a WhoMenu can answer it first; grammar).
Verified separately and NOT changed - the concern about a server that
swallows negotiation as text: the round loop already self-corrects, because
the first line sent flushes the residue exactly as the blank one did and the
next round arrives clean. Now pinned by a raw-socket fixture test.
2,724 tests green across all five suites.
* chore: TelnetNegotiationCore 2.10.0 -> 2.11.0
Both changes in 2.11 land on code this branch touches, so this was verified
against live servers rather than on a green suite alone:
#89 charset: report the encoding change on both sides, and label a line by
the encoding it arrived in
#90 prompt: read IAC GA as the prompt boundary RFC 854 says it is
Neither shifts our behaviour, and for good reason. We deliberately ignore
the encoding the OnSubmit callback offers - WireEncoding decides from the
bytes, because a server can negotiate one encoding and send another - so
relabelling lines upstream cannot move what we record. And we already force
a pending line out ourselves in FlushPendingLineAsync, so GA arriving as a
boundary finds the line already delivered.
Live, against the same hosts probed on 2.10 (structural values byte-identical):
mush.pennmush.org:4201 banner 1286 CHARSET+MSSP Count 20 (was 19, live churn)
chaos.caile.org:4444 banner 1611 Count 0
aardmud.org:4000 banner 1785 banner count 199
mud.arcadia.net:4000 banner 1382 LoginPrompt (colour gate still answered)
The one that mattered most is mud.pkuxkx.net:8080, which negotiates UTF-8
and then sends GBK: still `charset utf-8 (negotiated)` beside `read as
iso-8859-1 (Undetermined)`. The bytes are kept whole and the encoding stays
honestly undetermined rather than taking the declaration at its word.
Not verified, and expected to be an improvement rather than a risk: #90 may
make Negotiation.SendsPromptMarkers fire for GA-using servers that
previously went unrecorded. That would be a truer measurement, not a changed
one, and mui-probe does not surface the flag to check it directly.
2,724 tests green across all five suites.
* fix: subscribe to the Go-Ahead prompt marker the 2.11 bump started delivering
Testing the bump rather than trusting it found a gap in our own wiring.
RFC 854 makes a bare IAC GA the server-to-user prompt boundary, so a default
NVT - negotiating neither EOR nor SUPPRESS-GO-AHEAD, which upstream notes is
most MU* servers - ends every prompt with it and nothing else. TNC 2.11 (#90)
started delivering that; 2.10 discarded it as noise. The callback lives on
SuppressGoAheadProtocol, because RFC 858 suppression is the only thing that
takes GA's meaning away, and we registered that plugin without ever
subscribing to it. So SendsPromptMarkers could only ever be true for the EOR
minority.
The test that caught it sends the real bytes (0xFF 0xF9) over a raw socket
after an unterminated prompt, and asserts three things: the payload arrives
as ordinary line content, the marker itself is not stored as screen content,
and SendsPromptMarkers is true. That last assertion is the load-bearing one
- without it the test passes whether or not GA is understood, because
FlushPendingLineAsync rescues the line anyway. It failed before this change
and passes after.
Deliberately not Note()d as a supported protocol: `Supported` means observed
active, and receiving a GA proves SUPPRESS-GO-AHEAD is *not* in effect, so
recording its name would assert the opposite of what the byte shows.
mui-probe now prints the flag, which is how this was checked at all.
Honest about the limits: no server in the live sample (aardmud.org,
mush.pennmush.org, dsl-mud.org) marks its prompts, including one that
negotiates nothing at all - they simply do not send GA at a login screen. So
the wiring is proven on a real socket in test, not yet observed against a
third party. It can now be true where before it could not.
* test: pin the Go-Ahead shape taken off NukeFire's wire
tdome.nukefire.org:4000 sends no GA in its banner - it sends one in reply to
WHO. Reading the word as a character name, it answers "Password: " with no
line ending, hides the reply with IAC WILL ECHO, and marks the boundary with
IAC GA:
50 61 73 73 77 6f 72 64 3a 20 ff fb 01 ff f9
That GA is the only delimiter the line ever gets, which is why it has to be
read as one: the payload is what tells WhoParser the server ate our word
instead of answering it, and that reading is what keeps a busy DIKU off a
measured zero. The test replays those bytes and asserts the marker is
recorded and the payload reaches the parser as LoginPrompt.
Found by asking the question directly rather than trusting the earlier
"expected to be inert" note - the banner alone showed no GA at all.
* docs: the empty flush is load-bearing for far more than TinyMUSH
Correcting a claim this file has carried since July, and which I repeated as
though it were a census: that the flush exists because of chaos.caile.org.
That is where the fix came from, not the extent of what needs it.
Measured today. The defect still reproduces on chaos.caile.org four TNC
versions later - 1644 bytes of redisplay without the flush, an 85-byte WHO
answer with it. And a random sample of eight games that yield a who-sourced
count while negotiating no telnet option found three more that need it:
darkgift.mushpark.com, wackymoo.jellybean.co.uk, pegasusmuck.com - a MUSH, a
MOO and a MUCK. Cross-family, not a TinyMUSH quirk.
480 games negotiate nothing; 128 of those produce a WHO count. At the
sampled rate that implies roughly 40-50 counts lost if the flush were
removed. Small sample, so indicative rather than exact - but deleting the
flush is off the table.
Also records the trap I fell into while measuring this: the discriminator for
any future conditional skip must be OfferedOptions (protocols observed
active), never the presence of a capability.*.measured field, which is
written false when we look and find nothing - and so reports chaos.caile.org
itself as negotiating.
* feat: withhold the residue flush from servers that demonstrably parsed our negotiation
The flush exists to clear our own IAC bytes out of the line buffer of a
server that did not interpret them at its login screen. A server that
negotiated a protocol interpreted them, so there is nothing to clear - and
sending it anyway costs the whole session on the DIKU family, which reads an
empty line at a name prompt as a goodbye.
Measured before building it, across sixteen live games: none of the eight
that negotiate an option needed the flush; four of the twelve that negotiate
nothing could not answer WHO without it. The mechanism and the measurement
agree, which is what makes this a discriminator rather than a guess.
Isolated crawl of exactly the affected population - the 35 games that
answered, negotiated, and had never been asked WHO because the flush ended
the session first:
17 who_unparseable asked, answer unreadable
3 who_login_prompt asked, and eaten as a character name
2 COUNTED a real player count
12 who_not_offered still never asked
22 of 35 now reach WHO, two yielding a count, and nothing lost - none of the
35 had a count to lose. A separate 250-game random crawl lost two, both
coffeemud.net ports, both returning PLAYERS = 17 when probed alone: our own
concurrency against one host, not this change.
tdome.nukefire.org:4000 end to end: was who NotAsked, session over in 1.7s.
Now the session survives, WHO is asked, and it answers "Password: " +
IAC WILL ECHO + IAC GA - read as who_login_prompt, and the first live
Go-Ahead prompt marker this crawler has ever recorded.
Two things the tests had to change to stay honest. FakeGame's telnet mode
attaches no plugins, so it parses telnet and agrees to nothing - which the
probe reads, correctly, as no evidence; the positive case needed a fixture
that actually announces MSSP. And the flush is no longer empty in the only
case it is still sent, since a server that did not parse our negotiation is
holding those IAC bytes as typing - so the hang-up test now models a server
dropping us on an unrecognisable line rather than a blank one, because a
blank one is no longer reachable.
* fix: disqualify the staff line, rather than guarding the word
Second CodeRabbit round on #139. The Major was a real hole in my own fix.
The staff guard was a negative lookbehind sitting immediately before the
connectivity word, so it only ever saw one space. "Wizards currently online:
4" walks straight past it - the lookbehind sees "currently ", not "Wizards "
- and so does "Wizards online: 4", because the guard had to name a
width (\s{1,4}) and any width is a hole with a number in it. Both published
four *players* for a line about four wizards, which is the same false count
the guard was added to stop.
Replaced with a whole-line test: a line naming a staff role and no player
noun yields no labelled candidate at all. Distance stops mattering. A line
naming both - zombiemud's "33 mortals and 4 wizards online" - is not
staff-only and still goes to the sentence reader, which counts the mortals
and does not know the word "wizards".
Also from this round:
mui-probe said a who's-online option "was taken" when all it could see was
that the banner is a menu. The probe only selects while the socket is live,
so a server that closed after printing its menu was never asked. Now
reports the menu as detected and leaves the outcome to the `who` line.
AServerThatParsedOurNegotiationIsNotSentTheFlush asserted only that no
empty line was sent - true whichever branch withheld it. It now asserts
nothing but permitted commands went out, so a banner later classified as a
prompt cannot keep the test green while the branch it guards stops being
exercised. And the fixture's MSSP count is 99, not the WHO fixture's 7, so
MSSP leaking into the WHO reading could not hide behind matching numbers.
Two doc fixes: MD038 trailing spaces inside code spans, and naming
OfferedOptions beside the internal Supported.
CodeRabbit withdrew its earlier flush-suppression finding after verifying the
raw-socket test covers it.
* docs: say evidence where the measurement is evidence, and count games not targets
Third CodeRabbit round on #139, both findings on the survey text.
"Positively demonstrated it parses telnet" overstated what the discriminator
knows. The signal is protocol activity we happened to observe by the time the
decision is made, which is evidence of parsing and not proof: a server that
parses telnet perfectly well but announces nothing early is indistinguishable
from one that parses nothing, and is flushed. The section already carried
that caveat at the end while the rationale at the top contradicted it.
And the population was 35 crawl targets across 34 games - one game is listed
on two endpoints - so the table summing to 34 was right and the prose saying
"22 of 35" was wrong. Checked rather than reconciled: the count of distinct
game_ids behind those targets is 34.

`plates == rows` is an aggregate, and the arrangement it cannot see is exactly the one the assertion exists to forbid: a row holding two plates and another holding none has the same total and none of the left edge. Verified — that mutation renders 7 plates across 7 rows and the old assertion passes on it. Each row is now checked for exactly one plate, and for the mono fallback, which is the half of the listing plate PR #89's removal took from 95% of the catalogue. Rows are cut to the games list before splitting: past its close are other pages' plates, and on a per-row check the tail after the last row would otherwise carry the whole document.

) * Give the listing its face back, and the icon queue somewhere to go Two complaints, one subject: /games shows no icon beside a name, and a game's own page shows one for hardly anybody. Separate causes, both here. **The listing lost its plate on purpose.** PR #89 took it out — a 36px square per row is a fourth column of furniture down a list five hundred long — and left `.row-main .plate` in the stylesheet and `HasIcon` on GameSummary, so what shipped was CSS describing a plate no markup drew. It is back, with Fallback on, and that flag is the decision worth stating: a page has one plate, where an invented monogram at 96px reads as the game's own mark, and a listing has five hundred, where the plate's whole job is a left edge the eye can run down. An edge present on one row in twenty is not an edge — which is #89's objection arriving by the other road, since 4% of the catalogue has cached bytes. **The game page renders icons correctly for the twenty games we hold bytes for.** Eighty-seven declare an ICON. DueAsync ranked candidates by what game_icon held; a game never fetched holds nothing, so all sixty-seven tied on both sort keys, and LIMIT 20 over a tie is the same twenty rows for ever. A failed fetch wrote no marker, so nothing broke the tie. Production ran that way for six days: the same fifteen URLs re-fetched every thirty minutes, all failing, forty-seven games never attempted once. Alter Aeon publishes a 64×64 PNG that answers 200 today and has never been asked for. icon_attempt (migration 0035) records that we tried and when to try again. That reverses "no row, no marker, no attempt counter", and the reason it is allowed to: rule 5 protects a game's public record from our failures, and none of this reaches one — no field, no API value, no change-feed entry, no ordering a reader sees. A cache with no record of failure cannot tell a candidate it just failed from one it has never seen. The back-off doubles from one pass to the staleness window, which is the half the operators of fifteen web servers would have cared about: they were being asked forty-eight times a day, indefinitely, by someone they never heard of, for an image that was not there. 304 becomes its own outcome rather than sharing "nothing". Counted as a failure it would file a server honouring our ETag as one that had gone away, back it off, and — since a 304 writes no row — leave it permanently stale and punished for saying so. **ICO and BMP.** Thirty of the sixty-seven name a favicon.ico and three a .bmp, more than name any other format. Header parsing only, no decoder, per §4.2: an ICO directory's largest entry (0 means 256, type 1 only, served as image/x-icon because nosniff means the type has to be one browsers render), and BMP's two dimensions after whichever DIB header length it carries. SVG stays refused. **One redirect, ruled on.** Thirteen of the sixty-seven answer 3xx, nearly all an http URL in mush.cnf with an https server since put in front of it. AllowAutoRedirect stays false; IconFetcher follows exactly one hop and runs the host-scope gate again on the target — the objection was never "a second request" but "an address nobody ruled on". §7.2's TOCTOU gap applies to the second hop as it does to the first and is not airtight here either. Worth, measured by fetching all sixty-seven by hand: ~16 games from unsticking the queue, 11 more from ICO/BMP, up to 13 more from the redirect. Checked at 1400px and 430px; nothing scrolls sideways. 2,909 tests.

An external accessibility review of mu-index landed as a design handoff: 12
findings, a protect-list, 14 copy rewrites and a mockup. Its conclusion is the
inverse of a usual audit — nothing is missing, everything is said two or three
times, so a screen reader wades through repeats to reach the one fact it wanted.
This is the first pass through it, in the review's own order of work.
Blocking
the whole thing again under "show all N rows", its text a third time under
"read as text". One frame now, every row, scrolling; the crop is gone from the
parser as well as the frame. The art is one image with a one-line alternative

role="img", which prunes the drawing likearia-hiddenand leaves theregion focusable — it scrolls, and a keyboard has to be able to scroll it).
there is no grid at all, and no summary sentence either ("busiest Monday,
small hours" off one Monday morning is a shape one probe cannot have). Where
the grid is drawn it is hidden from assistive tech and its text alternative is
a real seven-row table — day, quietest, busiest, hour of the peak, and a column
each for the two kinds of hour that produce no number.
