Additional profile findings and two native desert studies

Ten unchanged originals gain forty additional normal local context frames and append per-profile history without replacing earlier findings. The field-farm fence crosses shoreline water;wetland ground grain and forest canopy clearance remain explicit gates. The series covers60 profile contexts,240 frames and50 distinct sources,with61 eligible and four naturally unselected contracts remaining.

Two separate1536 by1024 native detail studies are catalogued as WOG-A-009277 floating stone and WOG-A-009278 finite paving. Their small originals and full landscape parents remain exact. Each has four private context views and reused original controls. All four paving camera transforms match the original;floating-stone Region cameras match while its two Hex framing differences remain explicit. Contact,soft alpha,footprint,physical scale,palette,state/lifecycle and full performance remain open. No source admission or complete game-ready approval is granted.

The complete scope is9,209 catalog files,9,234 goal records and5,637 pending qualifications. The two added qualifications belong to the new studies;all existing statuses,3,597 dispositions,43 runtime entries,354 local permissions,322 production permissions,both Citadel hamlets,geography and saves remain. This14-record batch still requires local Atlas validation,focused publication and live verification.

Native measurement also retains a floating-study edge gate:59 border pixels have nonzero soft alpha,while no alpha128 or alpha250 body pixels touch a border. The native bytes remain unchanged;this is not complete alpha/contact acceptance. Paving has zero border pixels at all three thresholds. See native validation native-validation.json.

Verified live publication

Commit 94a4c6dc6a6a215ecfa699ae58e012810520eb2f deployed automatically as 5f1ec9b2-bd48-4e32-99fd-b9ef98a10652. The live9,209-member catalog/inventory,27 native image identities,28 desktop/phone Atlas finding views and ten wiki pages passed with zero browser errors. All14 metadata rows are synchronized. The production compact index retains3,855 rows and remains byte-exact to the previous release. All originals,finals,both hamlets,5,637 qualifications,43 runtime entries,source permissions,geography,saves and prior terrain/Hex failures remain. Both native desert studies are still unapproved and no renderer activation or new complete game-ready approval is inferred. Later profile-context work remains separate.
