- Require the core source tree alongside the settings file when walking up for the repository root, so modded-common tests built inside a loader adapter no longer stop at that adapter's own settings file
- Add the ProjectPaths test helper that derives the module root from the test class code source and the repository root from the settings file above it
- Replace the working-directory-relative source and resource literals in thirty-five test classes with module and repository lookups
- Drop the bespoke source-root walk in PregenMantleCleanupContractTest
- Delete 22 test classes whose assertions only read production .java text and check call ordering or literal presence
- Remove 77 source-text assertion methods from 34 test classes that keep real behavioural coverage
- Replace the core process-stream source grep with an ASM gate over compiled core classes in CoreProcessStreamPurityGateTest
- Replace the packs-root source grep in PacksFolderContractTest with an ASM call-site gate over compiled core classes
- Replace the IrisData registered-root regex in PackTypeBukkitPurityGateTest with an ASM scan of the registerLoader class constants
- Trim six mixed tests down to their behavioural assertions and drop their source-text tails
- Drop the eight iris.*Source and three iris.moddedCommonSources test system properties now that nothing reads them
- Removed the core processResources skip that fired on test-only invocations, which packaged a core jar with no generation kernel catalog and made all 10 probe and bukkit-plugin tests that reach GenerationKernelRegistry fail on every ./gradlew test
- Set maxParallelForks on :core:test to half the available processors, overridable with -PtestForks, and left the small modules single-forked so they do not re-pay the Minecraft bootstrap per fork or steal worker leases from core
- Resolved B.registries() per bound platform instead of latching the first one for the JVM lifetime, keeping the previous unbound behaviour, so a test that binds its own platform no longer reads a foreign platform's block states
- Resolved IrisObject.States per bound platform through accessors instead of static finals fixed at class-init, removing the NoClassDefFoundError and null material-key failures that appeared whenever class partitioning changed
- Bound an explicit platform in EngineMantleCoverageTest and IrisDimensionStackActuatorMetadataTest so they no longer depend on another class leaking a binding first
- Gated BukkitSpiConformanceTest registry probes on a live RegistryAccess and restored the IrisPlatforms binding it leaked, which was silently swallowing the stderr two SettingsHotloadWatchTest assertions read
- Initialised org.bukkit.Registry and Biome inside the RegistryAccess mock scope in ObjectStudioGeometryTest so Mockito no longer instruments Registry mid-clinit
- Replaced the SettingsHotloadWatchTest fixed 1200ms diagnostic window with a 10ms condition poll bounded at 4s
- Replaced the IrisCaveCarver3DNearParityTest wall-clock speedup benchmark with a deterministic density-sample count, cutting 28 carves to 2
- Cut HydrologyPlannerTest cold-owner parity from 12 tile plans to 4 and shared the immutable baseline plan across the early-owner tests
- Built one prototype project or staged history per class in the jigsaw studio and world replacement tests and copied it per test, replacing repeated fsync-bound fixture construction
- Replaced Mockito block-state fixtures with concrete implementations in the object IO, deposit modifier and nearest-block-index tests, removing about 2.5 million interceptions
- Replaced Thread.sleep with bounded condition polling in HydrologyTileCacheTest
- Deleted 19 test classes and 60 further test methods that asserted on production .java source text rather than behaviour, and removed the 19 now-unread iris.*Source system properties that fed them
- Server shutdown advances native chunk tasks while waiting for pregeneration
- Native world close owns chunk saves during server shutdown
- Pending plugin flushes stop waiting when native shutdown begins
- Late eviction completion cannot schedule another shutdown flush
- Regression tests cover owner waits and shutdown save ownership
- Concurrent replacement requests report busy before waiting for the manager lock
- Replacement staging reports localized phases and elapsed time
- Player progress messages use entity scheduling
- Pack copies flush completed files after traversal
- Replacement admission and progress tests cover scheduling and cleanup
- Language editor tests use a local catalog response
- World-local pack epochs preserve generated chunks across restart-only updates
- Kernel catalogs and source seals retain executable generation behavior across jar changes
- Crash-safe ownership, boundary, registry, semantic, and mantle records survive activation changes
- New terrain blends lower surfaces and inverted ceilings against frozen historical boundaries
- Cave, object, structure, biome, and hydrology work respects activation ownership
- Find commands merge recorded facts with eligible active predictions for biomes, regions, structures, objects, and rivers
- Bukkit, Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge route generation through retained runtime scopes
- Shutdown ordering preserves class-loader resources until world and service cleanup finishes
- Tests cover activation chains, failure recovery, retained registries, bounded lookup, and transition geometry
- Every registrant is evaluated on load (IrisData.preprocessObject ->
IrisRegistrant.evaluateCompat) by a cached per-class reflective walker over the
annotated key fields; the verdict is stored on the registrant and pool sites filter
with isCompatExcluded(). Block keys resolve through the live registry, the legacy
rename table, IrisDimension.blockFallbacks and the entry backup, in that order.
- Unit of exclusion is the compat unit that composes the missing content (registrant
or object placement). A referencing unit drops the reference; an emptied required
pool excludes the container (CompatPools cascade through regions, biomes, dimension,
spawners, loot tables, jigsaw pools and structures). A cascade that reaches the
dimension is a blocking validation error and world creation is refused.
- Object placements are evaluated per object from the .iob palette header: an object
is excluded from a placement's pool unless a chance-1 type-replace (edit rule
matching the key) or a fallback covers the key. edit find lists and marker mark
lists are match-only. Missing palette keys stay MissingBlockState placeholders
(air everywhere, real air nativeHandle) so a chance-1 edit rule can still rewrite
them at placement time.
- Approved decisions: exclude the composing unit; console-only reporting; no version
fields on packs and no cross-version pre-check (authors build on their version,
older servers gate at load).
- IrisDimension.blockFallbacks (base key -> full block state) applies to every
palette, decorator, deposit, replace rule and object in the pack.
- IrisBlockData.backup is revived on every platform (it was dead on Bukkit because
B.getState returned air).
- The legacy rename table now lives in LegacyBlockRenames and is applied identically
on Bukkit and the mod loaders.
Operator surface
- Boot listing per pack after the validation lines (IrisWorldGeneratorResolver on
Bukkit, ModdedStartup on modded), grouped by key, capped at three subjects per key.
- Validation summary line on /iris pack validate and /iris pack status, findings
persisted in PackValidationResult through PackValidationCache.
- One summary line per world engine when its pack has findings.
- /iris pack compat [pack] (alias cp) on Bukkit and modded, uncapped, from the
persisted validation so no pack is reloaded; catalog keys in all 17 locales.
Verification on the branch
- Full build green in the .compatwt worktree; modded adapters compile.
- Golden hash unchanged on Paper 26.2, seed 1337, radius 8.
- Live boots on Paper 26.1.2 and 26.2: the stock Overworld lists 6 unavailable keys
on 26.1.2 and none on 26.2; the world creates and generates without the excluded
content on 26.1.2.
Integration on top of master (df34f328e..fc3a26dd9)
- Conflicts: PackValidator keeps both import sets (JSONObject for static object
validation plus the compat and loader types); RiverPolicyResolver.State.apply takes
the confinement scope and the pack data (confined rivers and gate-filtered river
biome selections); IrisRiverPolicy keeps shoreBiomeWidth and confined next to
compatBiomes.
- Static objects honour the gate. The per-object palette evaluation moved out of
IrisObjectPlacement into the shared IrisObjectCompat helper; IrisStaticObject
.evaluateCompat mirrors a one-object placement, records findings with subject type
"static object" and the object key (DROPPED for uncovered palette keys, EXCLUDED
for a missing edit replace palette), IrisStaticObjectLayer.compile skips gated
entries instead of failing, and PackValidator.gateContent asks every dimension for
its static objects (IrisDimension.evaluateStaticObjectsCompat) so the boot listing
is complete. CompatWalker treats IrisStaticObject like IrisObjectPlacement: never
descended, so a static object's edit palette excludes only that entry, never the
dimension. Covered by IrisStaticObjectCompatTest.
- The modded compat and cp subcommands run inside ModdedCommandTree.localized like
the rest of the pack tree and are documented in the modded help; the parity test
asserts both.
- Locale keys stay in core/src/main/resources/languages: master's on-demand download
reads those files from the repository and the build only keeps them out of the jar,
so the compat keys sit next to the debugdump keys in the same form.
- Placeholder audit of master's new code: the only native casts added are the
isFaceSturdy fallbacks in IrisSpeleothems and ModdedDecoratorHooks, both behind
B.isAir guards, and MissingBlockState.nativeHandle is the real air anyway;
IrisObjectTransforms only asks B.isAir; decorators resolve palettes through
IrisBlockData.getBlockData, which never yields a placeholder. No new guards needed.
- core/purity-allowlist.txt gains IrisSpeleothems: 5053a644c split the Bukkit
isFaceSturdy fallback out of the already allowlisted DecoratorCore without moving
the allowlist entry, so master's own build failed the Bukkit purity ratchet.
- CompatTestPlatform states now answer isAir, isSolid, isFluid and materialKey like a
real adapter: B caches the first registries it sees per JVM, so an interned mock
air that never said isAir leaked into the core.compat tests once the static layer
ran under that platform.

/iris language opens a locale menu and sets the language for the caller
or, for a gamemaster, the server default; /iris debugdump writes a
diagnostic report and optionally uploads it. Neither needs iris.all, so
a plain player can reach them. Every modded command now executes inside
a language audience scope, and the Bukkit dispatcher opens one around
execution, tab completion and help. Permissions, message keys and the
shipped locales follow.
A height or biome query from the tick thread no longer blocks on a cold
hydrology plan: it answers from the natural streams and asks the
planning pool for the tiles meanwhile. A new world prefetches the tiles
around spawn when the generator is injected, and the hydrology pool gets
full parallelism instead of a third. Also stops the shared corner-bounds
cache from pinning a non-finite sample and fences its two stamp reads.
- Force-load every registrant and placement during pack validation and persist the findings with the Minecraft version in the validation cache
- Turn an excluded dimension into a blocking validation error and suppress content-key warnings the gate already reported
- Print the capped per-key listing after the validation lines on Bukkit and modded, ordered excluded, dropped, substituted
- Log one summary line per world engine from the published validation result
- Add /iris pack compat on Bukkit and modded with help and locale keys for every shipped language
Brings master's Sentry removal, bound platform classification, Vision
entity toggle, release version and generation context binding onto the
rivers rework while keeping the hydrology system master had removed.
Hydrology files master deleted are restored from the branch, master's
non-hydrology edits are kept, and the modded adapter builds drop the
Sentry dependency with master.
Also removes the ridge_tunnel find selector: no course publishes ridge
bores any more, so it could never return a result.
- channel.springWidthRatio / springLength open every surface river in a pool that shrinks where the ground falls away
- Banks settings keep structural invariants only; authoring bounds stay in the validator
- Feature searches walk tiles outward and stop early; find and goto report progress per ring
- Replace the river package with the hydrology planner, footprint compiler, cave containment and runtime
- Add the hydrology pack schema, validator, probes and tests
- Wire hydrology into IrisComplex, actuators, mantle, Vision and commands
- Remove automatic error reporting and server-identifying attachments.
- Remove Sentry dependencies, release tooling, settings, and test commands.
- Keep failures operator-visible through local stack traces and logging.
