All 4 styles x both recipes pass capsule, open-air and naturalness audits, and full-view hashes are
deterministic. But the SW passage crosses 355 m of open SurfaceWorld sky as a ~2 km fragmented rock
ramp, which is not natural. L27 replaces long bridges with a shared ceiling-to-ground rock column.

StrateLayoutChunkSizeMeters (world setting, default 8 m; owner decision) is resolved once in
the director/adapter and standalone loader; every generator reads the resolved width (no
CHUNK_SIZE / Core-tile inference). Every strate gets solid ceiling and bedrock bands from its
BoundarySealThickness in the shared composition path (diggable by default); faces come from the
shared boundary path. Owner world: FloatingIslands +8..-120 m (128 m, now with a bedrock floor),
SurfaceWorld -120..-632 m (unchanged; full-detail and exact-query hashes equal L21); the 60 m gap is
gone. The strict layout validator passes on the real world, with 0 endpoint dispatch
disagreements. Spawn/benchmark camera derived from route.front. Ledges under the islands gone
(reviewer capture). Evaluator 7, recipe schema 2, layout snapshot 2, FI geometry 4.
Open: SW cap profiles exceed the ceiling band (owner call); transitions still Hard; Unreal
setting/manager/adapter edits uncompiled here.

AVoxelWorld::CoreVoxelSizeCm (default 25, 32 voxels/tile) flows through plan, field,
mesher, content, water, atmosphere, edits and collision. Staged-owner BuildHost passes at
20 cm (SurfaceWorld + islands, W1/W8/W16, anchors, BP edits, collision) with a fixed-25cm
negative control; default-size hashes match round 4; Core off stays legacy 12.5 cm.
Reusable BuildWorldAssemblyFeatureTileListV1; wired into FloatingIslands only so far.
256-island stress: tile p95 112.5 -> 2.0 ms, 0 mismatches, dropped-feature control fails.
Content placement measured (no populated cells): island ground search 7.25 ms/cell vs
legacy 0.29 ms -- open. Outside-review evaluation in Round5/REPORT.md.

Islands read as separate (91.89% open sky at mid-height), underside cavity closed,
rim teeth were capture shading. Island manifest import + BuildHost proof passed on the
pre-cache tree; M1 SurfaceWorld and M2 V1/V2 gates passed.
Known open: final XY-column cache compiled in the owner build but is unverified;
island LOD0 p95 ~155 ms misses the 133 ms sprint deadline (legacy ~43 ms); the island
manifest only fits the BuildHost fixture layout (owner's world: Core init fails,
empty world) -> round 4 builds plans inside Unreal.

- Standalone/Core: public header VoxelForgeCore.h (no Unreal types), static library target,
ResolvedWorldSnapshot (from the schema-v1 JSON), World (compile, generateTile, density/sign,
point/segment solid, classifyBox), host-supplied JobScheduler (the core starts no threads),
sequenced, idempotent EditTransaction returning affected tiles per LOD.
- The viewer, benchmarks, edits and audits run on Core; StreamingWorld stays host code.
- Same as round 11: 11 hash rows at W1 and W8, routes 5642/5642, look/passage/far audits pass,
bad-shell control fails, six fixed captures byte-identical; cold W8 1.025 s vs 1.041 s reference.
- SHARED_CPP_LIBRARY_PLAN.md rewritten for a UBT module compiling the same sources via shims.
Open issue before Unreal: Core's implementation still compiles the Compat stand-ins named like
Unreal types (TArray, FVector...); inside a UE binary that is an ODR clash. Must be namespaced.

- FarSurvivalAudit: checks every stratum top/bottom boundary (4x4 columns per far tile) and every
in-view far connector (sections <=128 voxels, 4 radial rays) against the emitted mesh. Falsified:
removing one tile's shell triangles -> 16 missing, 16 holes, exit 14. Passes at LOD6/7/8.
- Far connectors follow source radial crossings; strata patches emitted at LOD7/8. Default LOD8.
- Viewer: separate near ShapeWorld for the 27 player tiles, full world built on its own thread;
27/27 tiles hash-identical to the direct build. W1/W8 60 hash fields equal; routes 5642/5642.
Cost, measured by me head to head (8 workers, cold, BelowNormal 0xFF00): LOD8 without the shells
1.17-1.25 s, LOD8 with the shells 1.80 s; payload 92.6 -> 276.7 MiB. The shells are far too
expensive, and the pipelined benchmark whole view is 2.92 s (shape compiled twice): both to fix.

Standalone/ (C++20, MSVC /O2 /arch:AVX2 /fp:precise, Build.ps1): copied density pipeline, op stack,
cave morphology, passages, strate manager/composer, noise, DetSinCos, mesher, clipmap selection,
with a UE compatibility layer (Compat/). Owner data exported once to Standalone/data/owner_world.json
by a default-off explore-commandlet exporter (the only plugin-source change). 25 cm voxels.
Parity: seed 0, 3,436 samples (strate edges, negative/far coords, rooms, tunnels, passages,
landings): bit-identical. Viewer: full 7-level clipmap, per-level toggles 1-7, T = round winding
tunnels (standalone option), N/P seed, F wireframe.
Timing NOT yet a baseline: 515 s for 12,054 tiles (L0 70 s, L6 296 s); the compat TMap/TSet are
vector-backed with linear lookup, which the plugin's caches do not expect.
