The last archetype is ~1080 lines with 13 detail modifiers, a two-region
cache and a per-room op override. Porting it whole before anything can be
verified is ~600 unverified lines on top of ~200 — the pattern this
refactor has dodged six times. So: three stages.
Stage A = vertical scale, base rock, cave warp, room graph (+ pits and
chimneys), carve, worms, structural post. 6 ops. It is verifiable NOW
because every detail modifier is amplitude-gated and FStrateGenerationParams
already defaults them all to zero — zeroing SurfaceRoughness sends the
ORIGINAL down exactly the path stage A ported.
TunnelNetwork stays OFF in UsesOperatorStackForChunk until stage C.
The decision that matters: FRoomGraphSource CALLS BuildChunkCache and
EvaluateSDFCached rather than transcribing them. That is where §8.4's
two-region window-invariance discipline lives; a transcription would fork
it, and the fork would be "validated" by a test comparing it to the
original. Only the ~60 lines of glue are transcribed.
FRAME ops are retired. All three candidates are now ported and none needed
one: CaveWarp's scope is exactly one operator (pits/chimneys read unwarped
coords), VerticalScale is a one-line pure function, and the island warp was
already local. Not missing infrastructure — one idea seen three times from
a distance.
Also: check 3 was going to compare two interleaved param sets against the
original, which would have FAILED — the original's SDF cache key has no
params, so it serves B the rooms it built for A. Comparing there measures
its bug, not the port. Rewritten against each stack evaluated alone. The
same reasoning suggests a live production staleness across Gradient
transitions; filed in AUDIT §C2 as SUSPECTED with the check that would
confirm it, since it rests on a premise I have not verified.
