op 0xc8 -> Thread.Sleep(duration ms) on the VM background thread (capped 10s);
main thread keeps compositing -> the sleep-paced opening burst gets frames to show.
Unit = ms (RE-confirmed). Selftest OK (plumbing parity; synthetic scene has no sleep).

Once sleep paces the VM thread, the main-thread compositor's SnapshotVisibleObjects
truly overlaps VM-thread _objects/_registry writes. GetOrCreate/Register/Release were
unlocked -> 'Destination array is not long enough' under concurrent enumeration.
_lock is re-entrant so BindDraw/EraseRange (already locked) stay correct. 52 green.

The animation-slice note mis-called the SC0000 opening 'immediate-mode slot-0
blits', inferred from our own gfx oracle (which mis-reported slot 0). Verified from
native code + raw bytecode: draw-texture (0x1fb) -> gfx_object_bind_draw@0x47e870
binds a RETAINED object by handle (stores the slot INDEX, a live per-frame ref, not
a snapshot). The opening is a sleep-paced sequence of retained objects with distinct
handles + per-object working slots (CG loader: handle=CG_array[G[0x62450]] INIT2
array, slot=G[0x62452]). Our VM collapses the paced sequence -> only the final state
shows -> needs frame-pacing (scene-coroutine/sleep), not this alpha channel.
engine-re.md: new 'opening render path is RETAINED' subsection. Ghidra: annotated
gfx_op_0x1fb_draw_bind (gfx_object_bind_draw already documented retained).

Retained-object animation channel wired into the compositor: wall-clock tween of
the anim channel over the GLOBAL clock (0x238), opacity from the 3rd vec component,
applied via an alpha-aware BlitLayer. Non-regressing (SC0000 opening page 2 pixel-
identical at settle 3 and 300; selftest OK). Added --shot-settle <frames> to capture
mid-tween.
NOTE: this drives RETAINED-object animations; the opening AE* explosion (AE001D/
AE002B/AE003B) is an immediate-mode slot-0 frame sequence paced by sleep/the render
loop, which our instant execution burst collapses -> needs frame-pacing (scene-
coroutine backlog), not this per-object channel.

Native RE of the largest remaining SC0000 rendering GAP band: resolved every
handler in 0x21c-0x243 (+0x2bd/0x2bf) via the dispatch table (ctx[0x26c93+op]
from FUN_00413860). The cluster is ONE subsystem = sprite transform + animation/
tween; two members already named (0x234 anim_start, 0x238 set_anim_clock).
Decoded representative ops 0x220/0x21e (argc6, cmd-type 0xd, transform worker
(handle,op2,op3,f4,f5,f6); 0x21e normalizes floats /_DAT_00571c28 -> scale%);
worker gfx_anim_set_channel@0x47eaa0 arms an anim channel on the same object
model GfxState tracks. anim_start+set_anim_clock => a per-frame clock that makes
AE* fades animate rather than snap.
engine-re.md: full op->handler map + contract. Ghidra annotated (renamed
gfx_op_0x220_set_transform3_abs / gfx_op_0x21e_set_transform3_norm /
gfx_anim_set_channel + plate comments, saved).
Add the approved brainstorming spec for the opening-slice implementation
(wall-clock tween, opening-driven subset, passive GfxState + compositor tween +
alpha-aware blit).

Add tools/scene_opcode_coverage.py: histograms a scene's static opcodes and
classifies each vs the C# VM as impl / safe-noop / GAP (effectful op the VM
silently stubs). Implemented set is parsed live from VirtualMachine.cs case arms
(no drift); metadata from build/opcodes.json. Makes a half-rendered scene legible
("N ops still stubbed") instead of implying everything runs.
SC0000 baseline: 129 distinct ops, ~94.8% instruction-weighted handled, 68 GAP.
The tracker cross-checks opcodes.toml vs VM behavior and surfaced 0x259
(script-entry marker) missing its noop_headless flag -> reconciled in opcodes.toml
and rebuilt (regen: age_opcodes_himegari.py, opcode-reference.md).
Docs: tools-reference.md (tool row), phase-a-slice-plan.md (completeness gauge).

The retained-mode "2nd CG renders off-screen" bug: GfxState conflated two
distinct native structures. It assigned a fabricated AcquireSlot() slot on
every GetOrCreate (called by all geometry/draw ops) and returned it from
QuerySlot (op 0x215). But Ghidra (gfx_op_0x215_register_query @0x42a0b0 /
gfx_op_0x1a2_registry_insert @0x42d360) shows 0x215 does map.find(handle) over
a registry populated ONLY by op 0x1a2 -- it never allocates a slot.
So a CG handle (never 0x1a2-registered) read back as "existing", took the
existing branch of label_12649, ran get-texture-size on the wrong slot (0),
got size 0, and computed dst = pos(0,0) - (w/2,h) = (-400,-600) -> off-screen.
The real engine returns -1 -> the fresh branch -> anchor from the INIT2 arrays
-> dst=(0,0).
Fix: GfxState keeps a separate _registry (HashSet) populated only by
Register() (op 0x1a2); QuerySlot returns the handle if registered else -1, and
no longer consults the geometry store or invents slots. Drop AcquireSlot /
GfxObject.Slot / the free-list.
Verified: Age.Cli gfx --boot SC0000.BIN -> all event CGs dst=(0,0), zero
(-400,-600) draws; Godot --boot pages 1/2/4 render opening CGs full-screen;
engine 44/44; sweep parity 284 exit / 13 STEP-LIMIT unchanged.
Docs: engine-re.md (query-registry-vs-geometry-store section), opcodes.toml
0x1a2/0x215 rebuilt; Ghidra helpers gfx_registry_map_find/hash_insert
annotated + saved. Tests rewritten to the native contract.

Main._Process composites visible objects in ascending-handle order from their live
surface (resId->BMP); GodotAdvHost.DrawTexture no-op'd (retained), ResolveResIdTexture
added. Restored the --boot system-boot handling that the revert had dropped (Main.cs
was running cold, which is why nothing matched the oracle). Verified: booted opening
event CG renders correctly. Selftest green.

GfxState: SurfaceStore (slot->{resId,colorkey} from create/set-texture) + object
SourceSlot/SrcRect/Visible (from draw-texture bind); SnapshotVisibleObjects returns
visible objects in ascending-handle order (=z-order) with their live surface resolved.
VM set/create/draw-texture wired to it. Oracle dumps visible objects. Erase removes the
object from the registry (faithful). Engine 44 green.

Reversed create/set/draw-texture handlers + gfx_render_frame: surfaces at ctx+0x52bd4[slot]
(set-texture loads a file with a colorkey); objects in the ctx+0x408 registry reference a
surface by slot (live) + rect + position (V24) + visible bit; render iterates the registry
in ASCENDING HANDLE ORDER (= z-order) and composites visible objects. Answers both unknowns
(z-order = handle; slot 0 not special). Design spec + Phase 1 plan rebuilt on this model,
replacing the flawed flat-layer version. Ghidra annotated (gfx_op_0x1f8/9/b, gfx_object_bind_draw,
gfx_render_frame, gfx_object_composite, gfx_op_0x20c_present_frame).

RE correction: op 0x1f7's worker gfx_registry_erase_range (@0x47d8b0) loops
gfx_registry_erase over [handle, handle+count) — a teardown, not a create.
Objects are created lazily by the geometry SET ops (gfx_object_get_or_create).
GfxState.EraseRange + VM case + tests; opcodes.toml renamed gfx-elem-create ->
gfx-elem-erase; Ghidra handler + workers annotated. Booted SC0000 CG geometry
unchanged for the working CGs (no regression). Engine 40 green.

Reuses GameSession to carry boot state into the target scene. INIT2 sets the gfx
handle array (0x62455..) SC0000 assumes; with --boot the objects de-collapse (15
distinct) and several CGs render correctly (EV049AA/EV052DA dst=(0,0)). Residual:
object-slot CGs still start with anchor (0,0) — cold gfx objects vs the real game's
warm ones. Confirms the root cause: missing system-boot state, not a gfx-op bug.

Dumps vm.Gfx object->slot assignments after a scene run. Confirms 0x215 now
returns distinct slots (SC0000: 8 objects, slots 4-11) — but also reveals the
CG geometry (dst) is still drifted, driving the Phase 4 investigation.

0x202/0x203 pack (alpha,color) via GfxState.PackColor onto the object; the actual

Gfx property on VirtualMachine + dispatch cases for the query ops (0x215/0x216/
0x218/0x21a), set ops (0x217/0x219/0x1ff/0x212/0x213) and lifecycle (0x1a2/0x1f7/
0x1fa). Query ops write results to operands like get-texture-size; set ops mutate
GfxState. Round-trip + distinct-slot tests pass; full suite 36 green (parity held).

VM dispatches on the opcodes.toml label field (OpcodeTableJson), so the 14 gfx
ops' labels are set to their dispatch strings. Ops still stubbed until the VM
cases land (Task 3.3+); full suite green (34), lint clean.

Ghidra-read all 13 still-stubbed gfx-family handlers via the dispatch table
(0x1a2/0x1f7/0x1fa/0x1ff/0x202/0x203/0x212/0x213/0x216/0x217/0x218/0x219/0x21a);
recovered 0x219 (was unanalyzed). Every op writes a cmd-type into the current
object record then SETs fields (native worker) or QUERYs fields (returns to
operands). Recorded the op-contract table in engine-re.md, set opcodes.toml
semantics (source=investigation, confidence=high), renamed handlers in Ghidra.
Key finding: the drift has TWO stubbed drivers, not one — 0x215 (slot-select)
AND 0x218/0x21a (per-object geometry vectors feeding the anchor-preserve math).
The subsystem is a per-object record model (slot + position/anchor 3-vectors +
color) queried by the ops; native DirectDraw workers need not be modelled. This
is the spec for Phase 2 (host-side model design).

Read op 0x215's real handler FUN_0042a0b0 (resolved via the dispatch table
ctx[0x26c93+op]; Kelebek's 0x421160 is VA-drift). It writes cmd-type 5 into the
current gfx-object record and returns a std::map::find over an engine-internal
registry populated by sibling gfx ops (0x1a2 hash insert). The return is native
command-buffer state, not the VM global bank -> seeding story-state cannot fix
the drift. Verdict: (b) a genuine native op, NOT (a) state-divergence.
Reconcile the previously contradictory drift accounts onto one canonical home
(engine-re.md op 0x215), with opcodes.toml carrying the opcode-level semantics
and phase-a-slice-plan / tools-reference / frida README corrected to point at it
instead of repeating the disproven state-divergence conclusion.

Also gate Stub events under TracingSteps: stubbed ops are per-instruction
frequency (0x258/0x259 stmt markers en masse), so --trace stays a clean
high-level flow view; --trace-steps shows step+stub detail.
