a0813c6eed Release CultLib Unity 1.0.59 and the Studio 1.3.1
Corrects the 1.0.58/1.3.0 release. Rebuilds the tracked plugins with
scripts/build-unity-package.ps1 -UpdateTemplate so they carry "" as the
unset CultRecordRef wire form in every position (nil still reads as unset)
and the edit-start Record snapshot. The native QUIC connector changes once
to its /Brepro form; later rebuilds reproduce it byte for byte. The Studio
package moves to 1.3.1 and depends on cultlib 1.0.59.

29bec57021 Decode an edit's Record from the bytes its Document came from
BeginEdit cloned Document eagerly but Record lazily from record.Document,
so a cache change in place before Record's first read made the two copies
come from different states. BeginEdit now serializes the document once and
deserializes Document from those bytes; Record deserializes the same bytes
on first read. Record is the state the edit began from, and costs one
deserialize only when a drawer reads it, with no second serialize.

Each commit still spends the edit, so a slider drag begins an edit per
frame; that serialize was already paid for Document, and Record adds a
deserialize only in frames where a drawer reads it.

The new test mutates the cached document between BeginEdit and the first
Record read; it fails on the lazy clone.

a92381e589 Write an unset CultRecordRef as "" in every position
452f928 made nil the unset wire form, including dictionary keys: a
Dictionary<CultRecordRef<H>, float> holding the empty key encoded it as C0.
Python msgpack refuses nil map keys under strict_map_key, its default, so
cultcache-py cannot decode such a record. Nil cannot be the one canonical
form; "" can, and every runtime reads it.

The writer always writes "". The reader still takes nil as unset, because
452f928/b85a828 stores and Aetheria's Cut 9 import wrote nil; such a record
converts to "" on its next save and is byte-stable after that. The
store-composition contract names "" for value and key position, requires
readers to accept nil, and tells other runtimes to write "".

The tests pin payload bytes, so each claim is consequential: an unset ref
writes "", reloads through a fresh cache and resaves byte-identical; a
nil-written legacy payload reads as unset and resaves as ""; a ref-keyed
dictionary with an empty key writes "", reads back unset and resaves
byte-identical. The nil writer fails every byte assertion, a reader taking
nil as a set key fails the legacy pair, and a reader taking "" as a set key
fails the read-back assertions.

90e7dbee27 Give inspector drawers the record they sit in, read-only
A drawer saw only its value; Aetheria's schematic-shape drawer needs sibling
members of the owning document (texture path, aspect, hull tints).

The model owns the seam: CultInspectorEdit.Record is a second copy of the
stored document as the edit began, cloned on first read and kept for the
edit. The Studio lowers it as CultInspector.Record, so a runtime CultUI
panel gets the same seam from the same edit. The Draw signature is
unchanged, so existing drawers keep compiling.

Why not hand drawers the edit copy the Studio already draws: that copy is
what Commit upserts, so a write through it would be saved without passing
through the returned value, GUI.changed, or read-only metadata. The record
copy is read by nothing, so writing to it saves nothing and changes neither
the edit nor the cache. It does not show edits other drawers made earlier in
the same frame.

The Studio's separate document-type field collapses into the held edit.

452f928bb7 Write an unset CultRecordRef as nil and read it back unset
The formatter wrote default(CultRecordRef<T>) as nil but read nil back as
"", so re-upserting a loaded record changed its bytes (0xC0 became 0xA0).

One in-memory unset value: CultRecordKey.Value is never null, so
default(CultRecordRef<T>) equals a ref built from "". One wire form: an
empty key writes nil, and nil or a legacy "" reads back as default.
Load then save is byte-stable; a store holding "" converges to nil on its
next save.

Rust, TypeScript and Python have no reference type: a reference member is a
string in the consumer's own payload, so there is no sibling codec to align.
The store-composition contract now names nil as the one unset wire form.

The new test loads a record with an unset ref through a fresh cache,
re-upserts and flushes, and requires identical payload bytes; it fails on
the old formatter.

111b918ec0 Make CultMath normalize follow dxc and release 0.2.2
dxc 1.9.0.5402 lowers float2/3/4 normalize(x) to x * Rsqrt(Dot(x, x)),
and DXIL.rst defines Rsqrt as 1 / sqrt(src). A zero vector normalizes
to NaN and a NaN component poisons every component. CultMath divided
by max(length, 1e-20), which returned 0 for a zero vector and a huge
finite component beside a NaN one.

- math.normalize(float2/3/4) is now value * (1 / sqrt(dot(value, value))).
- The HLSL mirror drops cultmath_normalize and its epsilon constant: it
  now equals the normalize intrinsic, and nothing consumed it.
- HlslSemanticsTests pins zero and NaN normalize, the rsqrt bit pattern,
  and zero length/distance. design.md states the rule and notes that
  DXIL.rst's Rsqrt special-value table is a copy of Round's.
- GameCult.Geometry's iso-surface gave degenerate triangles (an inside
  vertex on the isovalue) a zero normal through the old epsilon. It now
  guards them explicitly, with a test.
- quaternion normalize keeps its identity fallback: quaternion is not
  an HLSL type.
- Bump to 0.2.2 and rebuild the tracked Unity DLL and pdb.

ccf9bd0c0c Show an unkeyed struct's fields or its properties, never both
Unity's Quaternion showed eulerAngles beside x/y/z/w, Rect about eleven rows
over four values, and Bounds center/extents/size/min/max: settable properties
alias the fields they wrap. A struct with public fields now shows only those; a
struct without shows its settable properties, so record structs and CultMath
matrices (properties over private rows) still get clean rows and vectors show
fields only.

baa8de0baf Disable Studio Add for record types the model cannot create
The window lost its disabled state when record creation moved into the model:
Add and Create were enabled for abstract types and threw on click, and
CreateElement(type, type) on an abstract [Union] type threw "X is not a choice
for X". CultInspectorModel.CanCreate is now the one rule CreateDefault and the
window both read, a slot's own type is always a choice, and an abstract one
returns the "abstract or no parameterless constructor" notice.

bddec0fe4d Re-read the manifest outside the unleased load's exception filter
An exception thrown inside a `when` filter is swallowed as false, so a manifest
re-read failing mid-File.Replace turned a race that should retry into a thrown
torn-page error. The re-read now runs in the handler, and a failed re-read
counts as moved. Parallel.For's AggregateException is unwrapped where the pages
are read, so the page's own failure propagates and the torn check no longer
walks wrappers.

ff03866c8a Take record creation and type matching out of the Studio window

(GetConstructor(Type.EmptyTypes)), made it with Activator.CreateInstance,

RecordCandidates.

Add and Create now ask the model's CreateElement, and its notice is the
refusal. The record list and the per-type counts come from

8e0cd3e32d Compare dictionary keys under their owning document's serializer
Key identity serialized a key with the options of the key type's own
assembly, but the store writes it inside the document with the document
assembly's options, [CultCacheFormatterResolver] resolvers included. A key
that failed to serialize fell back to comparison by ToString.

The inspector codec now takes the owning document type, ReplaceKey and
FreshKey take it, and a key serializes as its declared key type under that
document's options, the store's own path. A key the document cannot
serialize is refused with a notice; the text fallback is deleted.

The comment and README said "the dictionary's own comparer"; it is the
rebuilt dictionary type's default comparer, and now says so.

c9a7d9c2a4 Drop the Studio edit copy whenever a frame does not finish drawing
The copy was dropped only when a claimed drawer threw. A built-in drawing
exception (BuildDictionary, SetValue, a throwing constructor, Clone) or an
ExitGUIException escaped OnGUI with the copy alive, and the next change
committed the half-made edit.

The window now takes the copy out of _edit before drawing and puts it back
only when the document drew to the end with no drawer failing. Every
abnormal exit, ExitGUIException included, leaves the next frame to clone
afresh from the cache.

ExitGUIException is dropped too, not exempted: Unity's pickers exit on the
click that opens them and deliver the pick in a later event, which lands
on the fresh copy and commits normally.

7d59021b57 Show unkeyed structs by their writable surface, not a lock rule
The unkeyed struct rule found auto-properties by the compiler's
<Name>k__BackingField name and marked the whole struct Unsupported when
one was get-only or a field was readonly. Record structs fell out with a
generic reason, and settable or init properties beside a field were
silently hidden. Editing is in place, so the lock protected nothing.

An unkeyed struct now shows its public fields (readonly ones read-only)
and its public properties that have a setter (init-only ones read-only).
Get-only properties are computed or kept by the in-place edit, so they are
not rows; vector swizzles stay out of the inspector.

838bbfffec Retry an unlocked directory load only when the manifest moved
A missing or hash-failing page under an unchanged manifest is corruption,
not a writer mid-commit, but every InvalidDataException was retried five
times and reported as "did not settle" with the real cause buried. The
retry now also requires the manifest bytes to have changed; otherwise the
corruption error is thrown on the first attempt. A vanished page directory
is a race under the same condition.

The reload test's writer now commits under every unleased read, so it only
settles if the retry takes the lease that commit created.

12fae728c8 Reload a directory store pull that a writer committed under
A pull takes the commit lease only when .commit.lock exists. Without it
(no writer has created one yet, or the store was copied without it) the
reader loaded with no lease, and a writer committing between its manifest
read and its page reads left it with a vanished page or a stale manifest.

An unleased pull now keeps its load only if the manifest bytes it read are
still current afterwards; a changed manifest, or a named page that is
missing or fails its content hash, reloads it, at most five times, and a
pull that has not settled by then throws. A retry takes the lease once a
writer has created it. Opening still creates nothing. The lease comment no
longer claims a missing lock means no writer ever committed, and the store
composition contract states the rule.

The test deletes the lock from a seeded store and commits from a second
cache through an internal seam between the manifest read and the page
reads, once replacing the page the reader named and once only adding a key.

f00aefd992 Describe the live Studio inspector in its README
The model paragraph now lists the edit decisions the model owns (key
refusal by bytes and by the dictionary comparer, fresh keys, element
choices, integer clamping) and names CreateInspectorModel. The drawer
section states the return-and-GUI.changed contract and the discarded
frame on a throw. The sample drawer draws a hex color string instead of
CultMath.float3, which the package no longer references.

40d52502e5 Discard the Studio edit copy when a drawer throws
A drawer that threw after mutating a reference value in place left that
half-made mutation in the live edit copy, where the next unrelated change
saved it. DrawDocument now reports a drawer failure, and the window drops
the edit copy uncommitted so the next frame re-clones from the cache; the
error row says nothing from that frame was saved.

The drawer contract no longer invites in-place mutation: a change returns
the new value and sets GUI.changed, and an in-place mutation without
GUI.changed is not saved reliably. Detecting such a mutation would mean
serializing the document every frame, so it is documented, not detected.

d22f662f7d Decide element choices and integer narrowing in the inspection model
ElementChoices says what a new list element, dictionary value or union
pick may be (a union's declared subtypes, or the slot type itself), and
CreateElement makes one or returns a notice when a subtype has no
parameterless constructor. It replaces CreateUnionValue, whose throw the
IMGUI caught and sent to the console. A dictionary with a union value
type now offers the subtypes too instead of adding a null value.

NarrowInteger clamps an integer edit to its type's range; the IMGUI no
longer converts and swallows overflow itself. IMGUI renders the model's
answers and shows its notices.

d03e376411 Delete the composite constructor heuristic from the inspector
Operator ruling: the heuristic that rebuilt unkeyed structs through a
guessed constructor is removed, not guarded. Gone: the Composite value
kind, CultInspectorShape.Composer, CultInspectorModel.Compose and
Composite, the composite-component flag on CultInspectorMember, the IMGUI
composite rebuild path, and the README text about it.

An unkeyed struct is now edited in place through its public fields. A
struct holding state it cannot write in place (a public readonly field or
a get-only auto-property) is Unsupported with a reason naming the member,
until a drawer claims it. Computed get-only properties are not state and
do not lock a struct.

The composite-rejection test goes with the heuristic; the replacement
test pins both lock rules and fails with either removed.

2a46409017 Decide dictionary key edits in the inspection model
A refused key and an unavailable fresh key are now the model's answer:
ReplaceKey returns the kept key with the notice text, FreshKey returns
null with its notice, and IMGUI only shows them.

A key is taken when another serializes the same or when the dictionary's
own comparer calls them equal, so 0.0 against -0.0 is refused instead of
throwing in BuildDictionary.

Keys never actually compared by bytes: the Studio handed the model the
document codec, whose registry guard throws for any non-document value,
so every key fell back to ToString. CultCacheMessagePack now builds the
model with a value serializer, and the Studio and tests both use it.

Tests pin the comparer rule, the unchanged-key rule (an old empty
reference key survives an edit of its value) and serialized identity
(keys whose ToString collides); each fails with its rule removed.

4716c304ec Lower the CultCache Studio from the inspection model
CultCache Studio 1.1.0 -> 1.2.0.

The IMGUI inspector is now a lowering of CultInspectorModel: it asks the
model for members, shapes, claims, record candidates and key rules and
hands every change back through it (BuildList, BuildDictionary, Compose,
CreateUnionValue, CreateRecordRef). Deleted from the Studio: its own member
discovery, list/dictionary/union classification, default construction,
key identity, the per-type CultMath drawers (composite shapes replace
them) and the nameof GetProperty key lookup. The window edits through
CultInspectorEdit and clones through the model.

Drawer extension point: ICultInspectorDrawer.Draw receives the inspector,
label, declared value type, value and member (also for list elements and
dictionary keys and values). Attribute claims win over type claims, which
win over built-in drawing; CultInspector.DrawDefault hands a value back to
built-in drawing and DrawValue draws a sub-value with claims applied.

The GameCult.Unity.Caching runtime assembly is deleted; its attributes
live in GameCult.Caching. The package no longer depends on
org.gamecult.cultmath.

Game data stays out of Assets: New refuses a path under the project's
Assets folder and says why, Open warns, and the file dialogs start in the
last store's folder or the project root, never Assets.

README names the model/lowering seam and the new drawer contract.

ba1119f18c Add the engine-free CultCache inspection model
The CultInspector* attributes move from the Unity-only
GameCult.Unity.Caching runtime assembly into GameCult.Caching, so headless
shared models carry them. CultInspectorAssetPath keeps a System.Type the
consumer names. CultInspectorDrawer claims either a value type (open
generic definitions claim every closed form) or an Attribute subclass.

CultInspectorModel owns what an inspector shows and which edits it may
make, with no engine reference:
- members: registry catalog slots for documents, [Key] slots for other
  MessagePack objects, public fields for unkeyed structs; Label, Hidden,
  ReadOnly, Order, Range, TextArea and AssetPath metadata; assignability by
  the rule the registry persists by.
- shapes: string, integer, float, bool, enum, composite (an unkeyed value
  type rebuilt through the constructor whose parameters match its members,
  which covers the CultMath vectors, rect and Color32 without naming
  them), CultRecordRef<T> with candidate records, rank-1 list or array,
  dictionary, union limited to declared [Union] subtypes, nested, and
  unsupported with a reason (multi-dimensional arrays included).
- CultInspectorDrawerClaims: attribute claims, then type claims, then
  built-in; invalid drawers and contested claims are errors and draw
  nothing.
- dictionary keys by serialized identity (a record reference by its key
  string, null and "" alike), refusal of null, empty-reference and
  duplicate keys, fresh keys, and collections rebuilt as new instances.
- CultInspectorEdit: a codec clone of the stored document; Commit upserts
  the copy, so a refused upsert leaves the cached object unchanged.

ICultRecordRef exposes CultRecordRef<T>.Key without T, replacing the
Studio's by-name GetProperty lookup.

Tests (CultInspectorModelTests): member list and metadata, claim
resolution order, declared-only union choices, record-reference
candidates, dictionary key refusal, refused commit leaving the cached
document unchanged, and shape classification.

debe616716 Open a directory store without creating anything
Opening a directory store, read-only or writable, created the .records
folder and its .commit.lock before reading a manifest that might not
exist. Only a write creates them now: PullAll takes the commit lease with
create: false, which opens an existing lock and returns no lease when
there is none (no writer has ever committed there, so there is nothing to
exclude). CommitBatch and PushAll create the folder and lock as before.

Test DirectoryMessagePackBackingStore_Open_CreatesNothing_UntilAWrite:
opening a missing store and a manifest-less .records folder, read-only
and writable, leaves the filesystem unchanged; the first flush creates the
manifest, the lock and one page. With the previous lease code restored
the test fails on the first read-only open.

131c508a73 Fix Cut 6 Studio findings: edit a copy, honest New, contested drawers
Edits: drawers now mutate a MessagePack clone of the selected record.
The cached object changes only through an admitted UpsertAsync; after
any upsert attempt the copy is dropped and re-cloned from the cache, so
a refused upsert leaves memory untouched (covers member Set, list and
dictionary in-place rebuilds). Duplicate uses the same clone helper.

Foldouts restore GUI.changed, so expanding never upserts or dirties.

Extension point: Draw is wrapped; ExitGUIException rethrows, anything
else draws an error row and returns the value unchanged. A type claimed
by two or more drawers is claimed by none; every claimant is logged and
the member draws the red row naming them.

Multi-dimensional arrays (float[,], bool2[,]) draw an error row and are
never flattened into a rank-1 array.

Dictionary keys compare by serialized identity; CultRecordRef<T> keys
compare by key string with null and "" the same empty key. Null,
empty-ref and duplicate keys are refused with a visible warning. Add
picks the first unused record for ref keys and warns when none is left.

Union popup shows "None" for null and never labels a declared subtype
as undeclared.

New creates only a writable single-file store: disabled with Read Only
or Directory toggled, refuses an existing path (file or .records
folder) without closing the open store, and reports Created only after
the file exists on disk.

CultCache.FlushAsync(bool soft) kept: Mimir.CultMeshMedia calls
cache.FlushAsync(soft: true) on a CultCache through a project reference.

Duplicate (MessagePack round trip), Delete, immediate upsert on edit,
Save = flush, Dirty indicator. An absent [CultGlobal] shows as absent
with an explicit Create; nothing is invented. Opening and closing never
writes.

Drawers (new CultCacheStudioDrawers.cs): dictionaries with recursive
keys and values, abstract/interface members through their MessagePack
[Union] declarations only, CultRecordRef<T> record picker plus raw key,
CultMath float2/3/4, double2/3, int2, bool2, quaternion, rect, Color32,
enums including flags, lists and arrays with add/remove, nested keyed
types, a red error row for unclaimed types, and the
[CultInspectorDrawer(typeof(T))] extension point discovered through
TypeCache (ICultInspectorDrawer). Existing inspector attributes keep

push emits an event whose handler puts without being awaited; both writes
land in order and store and cache agree.

The contract's Locking section states the rule for all runtimes: a store
call must not wait for a write to its own cache; unawaited write-backs
queue. Python refuses a same-thread re-entrant mutation; no runtime detects
a wait on another thread or async context. The globals row states the
two-step legacy retirement with compensation, and that a crash or double
failure leaving both records is refused at the next pull.

15c6a5d513 Serialize the Python cache behind one reentrant lock per instance
The Python cache took no lock, so "refused write changes neither store nor
cache" and the one-home rule held only for one caller at a time. A put paused
between its store push and its apply let a concurrent attach route the type to
a new home (the record stayed in the old store), and let a second global put
reach disk first so cache and disk disagreed.

CultCache now holds a threading.RLock around attach, pull, registration, every
write and delete (globals and update included), name/index resolution and
snapshots, matching the C# per-cache gate and the TS serial queue. Single-dict
reads stay unlocked. No public API change.

Tests: test_concurrent_put_and_attach_cannot_land_record_in_non_home_store and
test_concurrent_global_puts_cannot_both_reach_disk force the interleaving with
a store that pauses inside push; both fail on 4dc7f3a and pass here. The
contract's Python cells drop the one-caller caveat.

4dc7f3a1fb Record write atomicity and __global__-only globals in the store contract
Adds the row "Refused write changes neither store nor cache" with each
runtime's actual guarantee, including that Python serializes nothing across
threads. Corrects the TypeScript home-move cell (attach runs in the serial
queue), the TypeScript and Python globals cells (any key but __global__ is
refused before a store is touched), the Rust refused-at-load cell (load_soa
covered, load_envelope gone) and the Rust and Python batch descriptions.

9ab17061f0 Record home stability and refuse-at-load across CultCache runtimes
The runtime status table now carries separate rows for the rules the
sibling runtimes implement as of this branch: zero stores is in memory
(uniform across all four), a record's home cannot move after admission,
and a record loaded from a store that is not its home is refused. The
attach row states plainly that Rust, TypeScript and Python attach
without reading, so the caller pulls. It also notes that an empty type
list is the generic store everywhere.

6bb41f39ea Give every cultcache-rs entry type one home store
Cut 5 (Rust). The four mirror loops in put, put_envelope, put_raw_envelope and
delete are deleted, and so is put_prepared_batch's route.len() != 1 branch.
resolve_route_index returns the single home store (the store that claims the
type, else the generic store) and replaces resolve_route_indices.

add_backing_store and add_generic_backing_store return Result and refuse a
second generic store or a type already claimed by another store, attaching
nothing when they refuse. Callers take the Result: the crate's tests, the
cultcache_interop example, cultnet-rs's tests and interop peer example, and
CultMeshNode::create_node in cultmesh-rs.

Tests: second_generic_store_is_rejected, type_claimed_twice_is_rejected;
type_specific_store_routes_before_generic_store stays, now attaching the routed
store before the generic one. No bytes change.

The store-composition contract's runtime table now records Rust, TypeScript
and Python as conforming to one home store per type, and the README routing
section drops its non-conformance note.

Version 0.1.0 -> 0.2.0.

0408768d35 Give the counter sample integer MessagePack keys
CounterState in samples/eve-browser-network used string [Key]s, which the
registry rejects at registration, so the provider threw on open. Keys are now
0 counterId, 1 count, 2 receipts. The payload becomes a MessagePack array, so
the browser lowerer reads count positionally instead of by field name. The
getting-started chapter carried the same string-key shape and is corrected to
match.

BenchItem needed nothing: a5d1be6 already marked it [MessagePackObject]; the
earlier scan rejection came from a stale benchmark build. After rebuilding,
both types register.

No .cc stores exist under samples.

5bd4e4ed6e Persist get-only and readonly members the way MessagePack does
The reflective registry now decides persistence from the same two facts
MessagePack 3.1.7's DynamicObjectResolver uses: whether it can assign a keyed
member after construction, and which constructor it picks.

- Every keyed public member is discovered, get-only properties included.
  MessagePack writes them all; the registry used to leave a get-only property
  out of the catalog and schema id even when a constructor filled it.
- MessagePack picks the [SerializationConstructor] if marked, otherwise the
  longest visible constructor whose parameters take the keyed members by
  position (probed: a longer non-matching constructor falls back to a shorter
  one). A member it cannot assign is read back only when its slot is below
  that constructor's parameter count.
- A readonly field is assignable under AllowPrivate (probed: round-trips with
  only a parameterless constructor), and otherwise only through the picked
  constructor. Keyed readonly fields that constructor fills are accepted.
- A keyed member MessagePack writes but never reads back is refused with a
  message naming the constructor position: a get-only property, a readonly
  field without AllowPrivate, or a non-public setter without AllowPrivate,
  when the picked constructor does not fill it (probed: loaded as default).
- An unkeyed public get-only property is refused; MessagePack throws "all
  public members must mark KeyAttribute or IgnoreMemberAttribute". The unkeyed
  message now names both fixes.

Schema ids change for five GameCult.Eve.Surface documents, whose keyed members
are all get-only properties filled by a [SerializationConstructor]:
gamecult.eve.surface, gamecult.eve.asset_catalog,
gamecult.eve.command_invocation, gamecult.eve.command_receipt and
gamecult.eve.provider_advertisement (EveProviderAdvertisementDocument). Their
catalogs gain those members. No .cc store under F:\Projects holds records of
these schemas: the gamecult.eve.provider_advertisement catalog in Gjallar's
scratch smoke stores belongs to GjallarProviderAdvertisementRecord, which has
no get-only members, and every other hit is prose or a git tree listing.

Consumer registration scan (CultLib src/tests/tools/samples, Ymir.Core,
Gjallar, AquaSynth Core/Faust, Mimir): 148 types register; the two rejections
(CounterState string key, BenchItem without [MessagePackObject]) are rejected
on 9139bf3 too.

9139bf3195 Make registry member visibility follow MessagePack's
The reflective registry now accepts what MessagePack 3.1.7 round-trips for a
[CultDocument] and refuses what it would silently lose or throw on:

- A property is writable when its setter is public, or any setter (private,
  internal, init-only) under AllowPrivate. A public getter with a non-public
  setter on a type without AllowPrivate is refused: MessagePack wrote it and
  loaded null. Private and init-only setters on AllowPrivate types, previously
  over-rejected, are accepted and round-trip.
- A [Key] on a non-public member of a type without AllowPrivate is refused;
  MessagePack skipped it silently.
- A class with no constructor MessagePack can pick is refused (the primary
  constructor case). The check mirrors DynamicObjectResolver as probed: the
  [SerializationConstructor] if marked, else any public (any, under
  AllowPrivate) constructor whose parameters take the keyed members by
  position with an assignable type.

Tests: InternalSetterWithoutAllowPrivate, KeyedNonPublicMemberWithoutAllowPrivate,
AllowPrivatePrimaryConstructor, AllowPrivateSettersRoundTrip (byte-matched
against MessagePackSerializer); InheritedPrivateSetter carries the new message.

96ee5fdce3 Delete the CultCache MessagePack source generator
The reflective CultDocumentRegistry is now the only descriptor authority,
and payloads always go through MessagePackSerializer with
OptionsFor(document assembly). No consumer builds AOT, IL2CPP or trimmed,
Unity always ran the reflective path, and no benchmark showed a gain,
while the generator duplicated the registry's shape rules.

Removed: GameCult.Caching.MessagePack.Generator and .Analyzers (solution,
project and analyzer references, NuGet pack list), CultGeneratedDocumentMetadata
(provider attribute, interface, definitions, loader), the generated descriptor
and codec branches in CultCache and CultDocumentMessagePackSerialization,
DocumentShapeSweepTests and the generator half of the unkeyed test, the
Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.CSharp test reference and InternalsVisibleTo.

The registry rejects, with a message naming the fix, what MessagePackSerializer
cannot serialize and what the generator used to paper over: a document without
[MessagePackObject], a non-public document without AllowPrivate = true, and a
non-public member of an AllowPrivate document that is not [IgnoreMember].
DocumentShapeTests pins every rejection message and the accepted shapes'
round trips against MessagePackSerializer bytes (keeps the 93A16E0305 pin).
Rejected shapes are emitted into a dynamic assembly, which registry
discovery skips.

Nested member type names use reflection's Outer+Inner form, not the
generator's dot form, so ReferenceHolderEntry's fixture id is re-pinned
(bd8506... -> 4ec0c5...). A scan of the schema catalogs in all 2786 .cc
stores under F:\Projects (AetheriaEve and CultLib-* worktrees, bin and obj
excluded) found no member type name naming a nested type in either form.

a5d1be650d Mark every Cult document [MessagePackObject]
PlayerData, CultMeshSimulationFact, the Networking interop peer's
CultNetInteropNote, the cultnet-py benchmark item and the Caching test
documents lacked [MessagePackObject]. Only the generated codec could
serialize them; MessagePackSerializer refuses such types. Non-public test
documents take [MessagePackObject(AllowPrivate = true)], as consumer
internal documents already do, and ConditionalCommitTests.Slow marks its
private backing fields [IgnoreMember].

Same [Key]s, so payloads are unchanged: a pre/post probe over the
Networking assembly and both interop peers showed identical schema id,
content hash and payload bytes for all 9 documents, PlayerData equal once
its Guid.NewGuid() default id is masked.

30bf7fd267 Make MessagePack [Key] the slot authority and pin generic resolvers
.cc is MessagePack-based, so the core no longer pretends to be
serializer-independent. GameCult.Caching references
MessagePack.Annotations 3.1.7 and reads KeyAttribute and
IgnoreMemberAttribute by type instead of matching their names. The
benchmark's own MessagePack.Annotations reference is dropped; it arrives
through GameCult.Caching.

A generic document's options come from its generic definition's
assembly: Doc<X> uses Doc's declared resolvers, never X's.
GenericDocumentUsesItsOwnAssemblyResolvers compiles GenericHolder<T>
into an assembly whose resolver writes Pair as [B, A] and checks the
payload uses it rather than Pair's own assembly resolver.

Contracts: schema-compatibility states the slot rule and its
rejections; store-composition states the generic resolver rule.

7c4bc2bdc0 Make generated and reflective document members one rule
The generator and CultDocumentRegistry now discover members by the same
steps: most-derived declaration first, override chain collapsed to one
member, attributes read up the override chain, rejections in one order
with one text (GCC001 / InvalidOperationException).

- Accessors are named per document, so documents sharing a [CultName] or
  [CultIndex] base member no longer emit duplicate methods (CS0111).
- Duplicate [Key] slots are refused, including new-hidden fields and
  properties; a hidden persisted member with a different slot is refused.
- String [Key("x")] gets its own message instead of "has no [Key]".
- A persisted property whose set accessor is private, protected or init,
  or a readonly field, is refused instead of CS0272 in generated code.
- Overrides: MessagePack's DynamicObjectResolver reads the base
  declaration's [Key]/[IgnoreMember] (it throws "key is duplicated" for a
  re-keyed override and serializes an override marked [IgnoreMember]).
  An override that changes them is refused in both paths; an override
  that repeats or omits them is accepted and byte-pinned.
- Typed Serialize<T>/Deserialize<T> used static Options and skipped
  generated codecs and declared resolvers; deleted. CultNetDocumentBinding
  and CultMeshSnapshots route through the untyped path with their registry.

DocumentShapeSweepTests compiles each shape through the generator and
compares generated vs reflective schema id, catalog, name/index values
and payload against MessagePack's own bytes, or equal rejection text.

9009aa79bc Generate derived documents' members and require [Key] on every one
The generator walked only members declared on the document class and emitted
a codec only when those were dense, so a derived document's generated
descriptor hashed a different schema id and catalog than the reflective one.
It now discovers members along the base-type chain the way
CultDocumentRegistry reflects them (public instance fields and get/set
properties, inherited included, [IgnoreMember] excluded), and density is
over that full set: RoutingWeapon : RoutingGear gets a codec and the same
SchemaId and catalog (Name@0, Damage@1) from both builds.

Unkeyed members made the two orderings disagree (generator by name, registry
by metadata token). Both implicit-slot paths are deleted: an unkeyed
persisted member of a [CultDocument] type is generator error GCC001, and the
registry throws the same message. The consumer audit found no unkeyed
document with a persisted store.

Tests: GeneratedAndReflectiveDescriptorsAgreeForDerivedDocuments failed on
ea5a07b ("no generated codec for the derived document") and passes through
UpsertWeaponThroughGearHandleReloadsAsWeapon; UnkeyedDocumentMemberIsRejected
drives the generator through Roslyn and compares its diagnostic with the
registry's exception. The registry's reflective BuildDescriptor is internal
and visible to the tests for that comparison. The registry-collision fixture's
emitted field gains its [Key]; schema-compatibility fixture ids are unchanged.

ea5a07b37a Own serialization options by the document's assembly
The static UntrustedData options are gone. An assembly declares its formatter
resolvers with [assembly: CultCacheFormatterResolver(typeof(R))];
CultDocumentMessagePackSerialization.OptionsFor(assembly) composes them ahead
of CultDocumentResolver and StandardResolver, once per assembly, and hands
assemblies that declare nothing the base Options. Generated codecs and the
reflective SerializeUntyped/DeserializeUntyped path both read
OptionsFor(typeof(X).Assembly). No registration call, no mutable options, no
load order.

CultMessagePackSecurity copies UntrustedData and supplies a collision-resistant
comparer over CultRecordRef<T>.Key.Value, so ref-keyed dictionaries
deserialize.

Tests: RefKeyedDictionaryRoundTrips failed on 825b4f7 ("No hash-resistant
equality comparer available"); DeclaredResolverEncodesValueTypeAsPositionalArray
and UnknownAssemblyGetsBaseOptions did not compile there (new API);
InteropNoteBytesUnchanged is a pin whose payload constant was captured on
825b4f7. BenchItem, the one unkeyed [CultDocument] in any consumer (in-memory
benchmark, no store), gains [Key]s in its existing slot order.

825b4f7d26 Mirror snapshots carry the cache Sequence they reflect
ObserveAsync, ReactiveAsync and RefreshAsync read a snapshot without a
Sequence, so an older change admitted before the read but delivered after it
overwrote the newer value.

CultCache.GetWithSequence(key) returns the document and the cache's Sequence,
read together under the gate. A cache-backed CultMesh handle passes it to its
mirrors; each mirror subscribes first, then adopts the sequenced read under its
own gate and takes that Sequence as applied, so a straggler at or below it
drops. RefreshAsync on both mirrors uses the same adoption path. Public Mesh
surface unchanged. The read is non-generic because the Mesh route needs the
untyped document for same-schema conversion.

Contract: only Watch/WatchRecord changes carry Sequence; OnUpdate-derived
CultNet streams have no ordering or stale protection; schema-alias handles and
removals are not stale-protected; the sequence constructor argument changed
CultCacheDocumentChange<T>'s binary signature.

Tests: ObserveAfterNewerSnapshotIgnoresStraggler and
RefreshIgnoresStragglerOlderThanSnapshot (observed and reactive cases) fail on
4562340; SequencedReadReflectsEveryChangeAtOrBelowItsSequence.

456234018f Carry order as data: per-cache change Sequence, no delivery scheduler
bcae483 made the cache a delivery scheduler (tickets, _deliveryGate turn
waits, per-thread delivery queues). It deadlocked inside CultLib: a load's
delivery reaching a CultNetDatabaseSubscriptionServer observer that needs
_lifecycleGate, while a subscribe's demand handler holding that gate writes
the cache and waits for the delivery's turn.

The cache now owns order as data. Every admitted change takes the next value
of a per-cache in-memory sequence under the gate, published as
CultCacheDocumentChange<T>.Sequence. Delivery is the 544c087/b653f68 rule:
each call publishes its own changes on its own thread after releasing the
gate; nothing waits on another call's delivery. Cross-thread delivery order is
not guaranteed.

Deleted: ticket counter, _delivered, _deliveryGate, Monitor.Wait turns,
per-thread delivery queues, per-ticket catch-all, and the save-order contract
text with its observer-must-not-block rule.

Consumer: a cache-backed CultMesh document handle hands its observed and
reactive mirrors each snapshot's Sequence; ApplyCanonicalSnapshot drops one
not newer than the last applied.

Tests: SequenceIncreasesInAdmissionOrder,
ObserverWritingTheSameCacheDoesNotWaitOnOtherDeliveries,
SubscriptionDemandHandlerWritingCacheDuringDeliveryDoesNotDeadlock,
WatchRecordIgnoresStaleSequence. The last three time out on bcae483.
