Independently gate storage + K, OQ-4 P-a/P-b1, four static-local packets and comment-only disclosures. Preserve all 7641 exact owner rows, 71 valid parks and 1161 passing tests; code/data credit unchanged. G and game_engine admission remain held because current canonical loses populate_statistic_buffer. Existing collision static-local repair is not duplicated. No donor tree, held candidate, scorer or private asset imported.
The Xbox game state (0x345000 bytes at 0x80061000) ends exactly where the
map-linked tag cache begins and has 948 bytes free, so a 128-player
session cannot even allocate its player datums. The native builds now
place a 16 MB game state (CPU 0xFC0000, GPU 0x40000) at 0x81A00000, above
the tag cache and below everything the Xbox memory window hands out
top-down, and grow the pools that scale with the number of players:
- objects: 2048 -> 8192 headers, 1 MB -> 8 MB pool; the garbage limits
keep January's proportions (5/10/20 % of the pool, 2.5/5/10 % of the
headers, 75/50/30 active garbage objects per 16 players)
- cluster partition reference lists 2048 -> 8192 (collideable and
noncollideable objects, lights); a full list drops objects out of
rendering, collision and sphere queries
- effects 256 -> 2048, effect locations 512 -> 4096
- particles 1024 -> 8192 (render_particles' visible list, filled without
a bound check, follows), particle systems 64 -> 256, their particles
512 -> 4096
- contrails 256 -> 1024, contrail points 1024 -> 8192
(MAXIMUM_CONTRAIL_POINTS stays the pool size for the same reason)
- lights 896 -> 4096, object looping sounds 1024 -> 4096
- cached object render states and rendered objects 256 -> 1024
- script object-list references 128 -> 1024, objects one explosion can
damage 64 -> 256
The values live in port/linux/include/halo_port_capacity.h, included by
halo_port_limits.h. With 128 player datums the CPU part holds 14,256,908
bytes (2,258,164 free). Saved games and cores grow to 16 MB. Every change
is under HALO_LINUX; the MSVC objects are unchanged.

Approved packets, no owner ruling needed:
- real_math.h plane3d_negate gets its attested body (negate_vector3d plus
the d term; /Od 0x56d630 and the HCEX_Release line table), together with
the render_objects /Od shadow-volume plane pair and the bipeds genuine
helper calls. _biped_find_nearby_support_surface is now exact (+544). A
467-unit header review lost 0 exact rows. The bipeds park is retired, and
render_cameras _render_camera_build_frustum is refreshed to
3408/112/d42e420f (target unchanged).
- biped_falling_danger, update_airborne, snap_facing, update_moving and
fudge_vectors become file-static, as the Sept-2001 map STATIC list and the
retail private ABI show. Their prototypes leave bipeds.h and symbols.json
marks them static. This is zero credit; bipeds pdb_storage goes to 0. The
parked ai _ai_test_ballistic_line_of_fire is rebaselined for the resulting
declaration-count drift; no exact row is lost.

Zero credit; every packet was independently adversarially reviewed (22/22 approved).
- critic_3: 72 renames of placeholder/invented static function names across 20
objects to first-party names. Each rename has Sept-2001 linker-map alignment
(cachebeta xbe / retail cache exe, several also Aug-2001), relocation-masked
body identity and matching callers; cachebeta publics show every row was a
January static. hs's radiosity_hack_{start,save,find_point}_evaluate pairing
is proven by the Sept .rdata hs_function_definition pointers; players'
create_weapon also matches HCEX.pdb. Objects: ai_debug (reviewer-amended: a
dead stub removed, its comment re-attached), transport_endpoint_winsock,
transport_endpoint_set_winsock (+ parked.json key renames), profile,
progress_bar, network_connection, saved_game_files, rasterizer_xbox_profile,
xbox_sound_cache, game_engine_king, players, hs, hs_runtime, main, decals,
rasterizer_lights, rasterizer_xbox_dynavobgeom,
rasterizer_xbox_environment_fog, rasterizer_xbox_hardware_bitmaps,
render_cameras.
- hs_compile: whitespace_characters, eol_characters and hs_type_primitive_parsers
are external (cachebeta publics, HCEX DataIsGlobal); hs_compile_finish is
static with a TU-local prototype (no public; HCEX static function).
- bink_playback: bink_playback_idle -> bink_playback_update__internal
(first-party). The bink_decompress_audio_frame rename is NOT landed: it needs
an added call whose position is unattested, the same class canonical held for
hardware_geometry in 4d1ebf17.

All packets passed a precedent audit and an independent adversarial review.
No object changes status.
- Storage per cachebeta publics (source static + symbols.json rows):
- bink_playback: four globals;
- weapons: 11 rows + weapon_magazine_finish_reload;
- object_lights: 4 helpers; should_render_lights is the /Od-attested call and
its prototype leaves the public header;
- vehicles: _update_turret_physics;
- weather_particle_systems: one_over_char_max is external (cachebeta public,
HCEX Global); its globals are static;
- rasterizer_xbox_debug: 8 D3DINLINE wrapper rows (already Matching: audit
FAIL(8) -> PASS, pdb 8 -> 0).
- draw_string: the invented external draw_string_globals aggregate (pads, blob,
#define aliases) becomes four HCEX-attested file statics in /Od declaration
order with = { 0 } (a595bbc2 precedent); typed multitexture params.
- render_debug: three rule-6 hand expansions become real point_from_line3d
calls (ruling #1/#2); the opaque vehicle view gives way to struct
vehicle_datum + vehicle_datum_try_and_get; the six debug_* toggles become
tentative definitions (COMMON evidence).
- vehicles: the TU-wide REAL_MATH_EXTERNAL_POINT_FROM_LINE3D define is gone and
the pathfinding hand expansion becomes the genuine call (ruling #1).
- rasterizer_xbox_profile V1R (reviewer-amended): byte-inert /Od parameter
order, the BUG marker comment, detail_objects via the rasterizer_xbox.h API,
and a rejection text that keeps the SDK-table policy question open.
- semantic_data_matches.json: single-section '$'-defect entries with
allow_incomplete_unit for projectiles _projectile_update_section (1,548 B) and
object_lights _lights_section (1,541 B) (leaf_map / editor_flying_camera /
race precedents).

- symbols.json: IDirect3DDevice8_IsBusy/KickPushBuffer and IDirect3DBaseTexture8_IsBusy
are static (D3DINLINE is static __forceinline; none is a cachebeta public).
- Three invented static names replaced by first-party names from the 2001-09-25
cachebeta-xbe linker map (atlas 7eacac85, re-anchored on 20 named symbols):
texture_cache_name_block_proc, compare (also January atlas exact tier) and
texture_cache_initialize_hardware_format.
- bitmap_group.h (shared, 45 includers): struct bitmap_data fields per HCEX
(mipmap_pad, long pixels_offset/pixels_size/tag_index/cache_block_index);
bink_playback.c and bitmaps.c adopt the names. The TU-local bitmap_data view
and raw tag_get('bitm') prefix view in xbox_texture_cache.c are gone.
- texture_cache.h declares texture_cache_debug_render (render_debug.c had no
prototype in scope). The Xbox-only public format mappers get the object's own
header cache/xbox_texture_cache.h. Adding them to texture_cache.h regresses
declaration-count-sensitive consumers (decals); this is disclosed in the header.
- Reviewer amendment: the invented pad member reserved006[2] in the TU-private
texture struct is removed (natural alignment; HCEX texture_datum has no pad).

objects.h: both bounding-sphere inline assertions report OBJECTS_H_FILE, which
defaults to January's relative "..\objects\objects.h". object_lights defines the
absolute spelling first, as January's string census shows. action_vehicle loses
its NODUP hand copy of object_get_bounding_sphere, so the header inline is the only
definition. render_objects' lighting_storage becomes the static local of
object_get_cached_render_lighting (symbols.json).
path.h: the opaque __unknown140A0[0x5C] span is HCEX's `struct path_result
result`, and path.c stores through the field instead of a punning cast.

Structural lane batch 3: +4,128 padded / +4,101 meaningful bytes strict
exact (3 functions), zero stable-verdict regressions.
- rasterizer_xbox_active_camouflage.c: _rasterizer_active_camouflage_draw.
The debug build (0x7cd9c0) writes each normal/hyper-stealth blend as one
(1-p)*base + p*hyper expression. The texture-animation vertex constants
are a block-scoped aggregate initializer, so both constant arrays share
a slot as in January.
- render_particles.c: _render_particles. The draw pass indexes
group_particle_counts[group_index] with a short loop, and the inner loop
is while (particle_count-- > 0), advancing the particle at the body end
and before the delete-path continue (/Od 0x84f800).
- rasterizer_xbox_shadows.c: __rasterizer_environment_shadow_begin. The
debug build's boolean success = TRUE is returned once, and the
translation terms use dot_product3d (/Od 0x80d870; HCEX array name
vsh_constants__screenproj).
Rule-24 disclosure (owner per-site admission, 2026-09-21): two new
(real_vector3d const *)&shadow_matrix->position casts, one per
dot_product3d call. The /Od build calls dot_product3d at 0x80db50 and
0x80dbc2 with the matrix position. Deleting both casts leaves the
function strict exact, and point/vector share the three-real layout.
parked.json: unpark _render_particles and __rasterizer_environment_shadow_begin.
The owner packet gains the aggregate 3D->2D view-copy question.

Integrate verified source and data progress; exclude unproven COMMON ownership, held UB/asm forms, and address-named data credit. Stable sweep: 23 exact functions gained, zero lost.
Integrate six accepted exact functions, two whole-object admissions, evidence-backed zero-credit source corrections, owner-header cleanup, and curated campaign records. Preserve zero regressions and exclude generated scratch archives from canonical history.
- _render_debug_add_cache_entry: success-first single exit, string case
if/else, one case body per debug type as January emits them
- _ctf_engine_weapon_update: long return-team locals from the owner team
field (January's 32-bit movsx locals)
- _action_uncover_perform: timeslice-block locals, one evaluation-mode
store (removes HEAD's duplicated arm stores), field-order target stores
- _row_dither: indexed channel loops with PIN clamps replace pointer
cursors and a hand-written ternary clamp
- _lruv_debug_to_file: removes a goto web; MIN(9999, age) and the
NULL-name fallback in the fprintf arguments (integer compare order
disclosed; constant-first MIN is attested in Bungie source)
- _action_guard_perform: short firing-position index matching the
actor_select_firing_position return type
render_debug, game_engine_ctf, action_uncover, bitmaps_quantitize,
lruv_cache and action_guard are now all-function exact.
Stable diff: 0 regressions; active parks 219 -> 213.

Reviewed reconstructions, each strict exact in its whole-TU gate with
zero inherited losses, guard passing and no new owners:
- rasterizer_xbox_screen_effect (13/13): complete per-arm shader setups,
load-before-call locals, January assert texts, PIN clamp; screen_flash
projection spelling and the defined inverse-pixel default arm
- hs_compile: _hs_parse_begin (per-branch result type; January's extra
sprintf name argument kept with a BUG comment), _hs_parse_cond_recursive
(single exit; January's always-true negation test kept with a BUG
comment, byte-proven and recorded in HCEA)
- geometry: definitions in January object order (assert lines ascend),
duplicate prototype removed, _get_edge_vertex single exit
- render_cameras: view_to_screen and build_frustum_bounds simplifications
- sound_manager: _sound_dispose_from_old_map loop-exit flag
Rejected in review: _encounter_test_rule (redundant default stores),
_render_camera_mirror (point_from_line3d COMDAT), _sound_set_definition_end
(prototype contradicting its definition).
Stable diff vs 9062b1e96: 0 regressions; parks 255 -> 250.

Both admitted by explicit owner rulings on 2026-09-16; each lands as the minimum
hunk after a whole-TU gate, and neither involves undefined behaviour or steering.
render_debug _render_debug_player (+266, park reopened and removed). LAW D, from
the research campaign's frame study, proves January's `sub esp,0x404` cannot come
from a dead local or any other declaration - a dead whole object costs 0 frame -
and only a declared text extent of 1025-1028 yields it. Written in the house
idiom as a named capacity plus its terminator, added to the file's existing
constants enum rather than a new block: `MAXIMUM_RENDER_DEBUG_PLAYER_TEXT_LENGTH =
1024` and `char text[MAXIMUM_RENDER_DEBUG_PLAYER_TEXT_LENGTH + 1]`. The tree
already uses `[X_LENGTH+1]` string buffers 70+ times. This ruling supersedes the
pre-LAW-D park rejection of enlarging the buffer. Whole-TU gate 34 -> 35 with only
this row changing; the sibling park _render_debug_add_cache_entry is unchanged; the
added enumerator shifted no declaration-count-keyed row; fake scan 0 leads.
hud_draw _real_rgb_color_to_pixel32 (+181, previously unwritten). A genuine
bitmaps_inlines.h color-conversion helper, admitted under house rule 10. The owner
ruling rests on affirmative hand-written-assembly evidence in January's bytes -
dword fistp and fmul on non-top x87 stack slots (fmul st(3),st(0)) - not merely on
asm being able to force a match. The permission covers this one body only; it does
not authorize _real_argb_color_to_pixel32, _fast_ftol_C or assembly elsewhere.
Whole-TU gate 20 -> 21 exact, including _hud_draw_meter, which calls it three
times. fake_match_scan: 3 leads, 2 of them pre-existing at HEAD (the naked
get_return_eip); the only new lead is this admitted block.
Full ninja, parks 271 active / 0 stale / 0 invalid, stable diff vs
scratch/opus5-next150-before.json: gained 12 / 8,992 padded, regressions 0.

+1 strict exact function, 384 padded bytes (previously residual). Adversarial
review accepted; no top-level declaration was added and the other three
render_sprite residuals keep their tags. A proposed spelling for
build_sprite_transform_origin_and_direction that would write a vector over its
own parameter home was not landed (owner/UB ruling required).
render_sprite: 7 exact / 3 residual.
