# Owner battle decisions — GUIDE-DEV-20261005-03

Documentation/catalog preparation only. Owner decisions are recorded in ADR-027, the guide and development-standards.json. No engine acceptance, physical hardware benchmark, music generation or icon-image edit was performed.

Accepted: mana-consuming movement; owner-suggested Cairn Vault 1 s / Reed Rush 0.3 s reuse; hard-control/root rules; researched per-skill locomotion; combo/refund starting policy; optional close-view lock-on; enemy engagement coordinator; first-slice foundations/cosmetic KO-combo feedback; two camera views with R3-only toggle; blue Silk Roll classification; entry-level hardware floor; special boss music. Proposed numeric tuning remains marked.

Reference hardware selected from manufacturer sources checked 2026-10-05: Galaxy A07 LTE 4 GB / G99, iPhone SE (2020) A13 on Apple current compatibility list, ASUS E1504TA-class N150 / 8 GB / integrated GPU / Windows 11. Exact probes/native/browser feasibility and sustained Low 30 fps measurements pending. Sources are linked beside claims in PERFORMANCE.md and reference-devices.json.

Primary locomotion research: Konami MGSV controls/sneaking, Koei DW9 attack manual and Origins system page. The guide distinguishes verified examples from Zoen design synthesis; no unpublished game-frame rules are claimed.

Verification (task logs GUIDE-DEV-20261005-03-*.log):
- Data regeneration and public export passed: 320 audio requests, 318 delivered, 2 named boss themes pending.
- Canonical data suite: 93/93 passed, including music restricted to town/GM/named engaged boss cues and retained outdoor bed/emitter coverage.
- Docs lint/index: 0 problems; wiki production build and TypeScript passed.
- Targeted Playwright: 14 route/link/doc/world checks + 4 audio/gem checks passed across desktop/mobile.
- inspect-wiki.mjs: three viewport layouts/anchors/sources; all 15 numeric standards fields remain proposed; blue Silk Roll popup and boss-encounter map label verified.
- Captures visually inspected: mobile movement resources, hardware reference table, Silk Roll classification. Legacy green illustration is explicitly marked for later blue art revision; accepted originals preserved.

Expected red: first music policy test rejected the old two-theme catalog; green after the two encounter briefs were generated into the catalog. Initial visual harness expected title-case Blue; actual UI renders uppercase BLUE. Assertion corrected to case-insensitive, rerun passed. Neither was an unresolved product failure.

New boss themes have briefs/commands only; no assets or licence delivery rows. Enemy coordination, camera/lock-on, movement costs/travel, all control tests and physical performance remain future engine work.
