Package fixtures in dungeons and playerbots reach Core internals through package-api: exempt lines. They damage a boss, remove a live Character, refuse imported content, read the top threat target, cast as a client and move the creature movement tick. Each exemption is a gap in the Package API. The goal is that no official Package needs one.

This PR adds crate::package_fixture, a Package API root that exists only when the Module builds with debug_reducers. It has six operations:

• apply_damage deals non-lethal damage through the real Core damage pipeline.
• remove_live_character removes a live Character as a logout does.
• require_no_imported_content refuses when the Shard holds imported content. The weather seed a fresh Module stamps does not count.
• top_threat_target reads the highest-threat living source on a creature.
• client_cast casts through the same Gates as gw_cast_at.
• declare_next_movement_tick makes the catch-all creature tick fire once after a delay.

The ticket also asked for a navigation revision read. nav::inputs(ctx, map).imported_revision already gives it, so I did not add a second one.

The lint accepts package_fixture only in a Package file whose first non-blank line is #![cfg(feature = "debug_reducers")]. A release build compiles every other file and has no such root, so the lint refuses the path there, and no exemption clears it. Four lint tests cover the refusal, the gated file, the exemption and the message. The Package API doc lists the root as debug only. The changelog and CONTEXT.md (new term: Package Fixture) describe it. The API version stays at 1.

Pair: LyraCoreProject/packages#69 moves dungeons and playerbots to the root. Merge Core first, then the packages PR.

Checks run locally:

• cargo test -p lyracore-module --lib --features=debug_reducers and cargo test -p lyracore-module --test package_api_lint pass.
• cargo clippy -p lyracore-module --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings passes.
• With both official Packages linked, the module lib tests pass with and without debug_reducers.
• With the file gate removed from the dungeons fixture, a release cargo check fails on the package_fixture path with the new message.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds a debug_reducers-only Package fixture API with helpers for staging or observing fixture state. The Package API lint requires references to the debug-only root to appear in files with the matching file-level feature gate.

Changes

Package debug fixtures

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Gate the fixture API module/src/lib.rs, module/build.rs, docs/package-api.md	The Module exposes package_fixture only with debug_reducers. The Package API lint checks the file-level gate, excludes gated files from registry discovery when the feature is disabled, and tests gate and exemption behavior.
Add fixture operations module/src/package_fixture.rs, module/src/weather.rs, docs/package-api.md, CONTEXT.md, CHANGELOG.md	The fixture helpers apply damage, remove a live Character through logout handling, check imported content, cast through client Gates, and reschedule the catch-all movement tick. The changelog, glossary, and API documentation describe the fixture API and its restrictions.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to aa97e

The new debug fixture helpers can stop creature movement on Shards that use only the catch-all schedule after a declared tick. They can also refuse to run on a Shard that was repaired but never imported content. These helpers ship only in debug builds, but both issues should be fixed before Packages depend on them.

Code review: Standards and Spec

Reviewed main...9d9524b (1 commit). No linked issue was found, so the Spec axis uses the PR description as the spec.

Standards

No hard breaches of CODING_STANDARDS.md or AGENTS.md. Prose follows the glossary, Package Fixture lands in CONTEXT.md in the same change, and there are no em dashes.

Judgement calls (Fowler baseline), all low priority:

• Low. Duplicated Code / Primitive Obsession, module/build.rs out_of_surface_message: it derives the root again from the path string (split("::"), skip crate|$crate|super|self, strip r#). record_rooted_paths already has normalized_root. The two agree today, but they can drift. A reason value carried out of out_of_surface_paths (debug root outside the gate vs. off the surface) would remove the second parse and the string check.
• Low. Mysterious Name, let debug_only_file = debug_only_file(source); shadows the function with a bool of the same name, and on_package_api(root, debug_only_file) reuses the name. Consider is_debug_only_file for the function.
• Low. Data Clump: record_rooted_paths now takes 7 parameters, and exempt_lines, debug_only_file and found travel together through four call sites.
• Note. a_debug_root_failure_names_the_file_gate calls the private out_of_surface_message directly, not through a caller-facing interface. reported() cannot see the message, so this is acceptable.
• Note. The gate must be the first non-blank line. package_fixture.rs itself opens with #[cfg_attr(...)], so a Package author who copies that header gets refused. The doc and message say "first non-blank line", which matches registry behaviour, so this is consistent.

Spec

• High. declare_next_movement_tick leaves the world without a creature tick. Spec: "makes the catch-all creature tick fire once after a delay." The code changes the only catch-all row to ScheduleAt::Time. SpacetimeDB deletes a one-shot scheduled row after it fires, and tick_creatures does not re-arm it. After the fixture tick, every instance without a dedicated row stops moving until debug_repair_after_publish re-seeds the row (debug/repair.rs ~L245). Either re-arm the interval after the one-shot fire, or state in docs/package-api.md and the doc comment that the caller must restore the tick. The comment at creatures/tick/mod.rs:238 ("nothing inserts one today") is now stale.
• Medium. require_no_imported_content counts Core's own repair stamp as imported content. Spec: "refuses when the Shard holds imported content. The weather seed a fresh Module stamps does not count." debug_repair_after_publish stamps a game_import_meta row with family debug_repair_after_publish (debug/repair.rs L37). After a repair, the fixture refuses although no content was imported. Exclude that family too, or match on the import families.
• Info. No fixture migration in this tree. Spec: "The goal is that no official Package needs one." No packages/** code uses the new root here. The PR names refactor(packages): move fixtures off Core internals to the Package fixture root packages#69 as the pair, so this axis cannot confirm that the six operations are enough.
• Checked and matches the spec: apply_damage caps at health - 1 through fold_incoming_damage / final_damage / apply_hit; remove_live_character fires on_logout, persists, then removes; client_cast goes through gw_cast_at (operator and actor Gates); nav is on the surface and nav::inputs(..).imported_revision exists. No scope creep found.

Summary. Standards: 3 low judgement calls, worst is the duplicated root parse in out_of_surface_message. Spec: 2 findings plus 1 info, worst is the one-shot movement tick, which leaves the catch-all tick unarmed.

Exclude Core repair stamps from the import check.

After debug_repair_after_publish runs, it stamps game_import_meta with family debug_repair_after_publish. This predicate accepts that stamp as imported content. require_no_imported_content then refuses even when no content was imported. Exclude Core maintenance stamps while retaining refusals for actual import families. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Restore the catch-all movement interval after the declared tick.

If the sole catch-all schedule is changed to ScheduleAt::Time, SpacetimeDB runs it once and removes the row. tick_creatures handles that firing but does not re-arm the interval. Instances without a dedicated schedule then stop receiving creature movement ticks until repair re-seeds the catch-all row. Re-arm the interval after the one-shot firing, or use a separate one-shot schedule that leaves the catch-all interval intact. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
