alex c504729341 lane S2: the standalone scaffold, and the measured distance to the byte-match
tools/standalone_report.py drives sots-engine's sots_turn over each
consecutive-turn save pair and diffs the result against the game's own
post-turn save with state_checksum.py, which localises to named leaves and
proves its own coverage by re-serialisation.

  turn1-state -> turn2-state   baseline 209 diverging, after 204, closed 5
  turn2-state -> turn3-state   baseline 108 diverging, after 103, closed 5
  regressed 0 on both

`regressed` is reported next to `closed` and never netted off. It earned its
place immediately: committing the phase-31 player-status restore turned two
agreeing leaves into disagreeing ones, because the phase writes 1 and the file
carries 4.

The stable-system stand-in feeding the colony pass is a labelled hypothesis and
it survived a changed workload -- the same 3 ntdev leaves closed on both pairs,
six agreements, zero disagreements.

Two things deliberately NOT implemented: the TShn/ltis counters (18 leaves, a
`+1` would close them, but "+1 across one observed turn" is a hypothesis, not a
reading), and the RNG state write-back (an advanced-but-incomplete generator is
wrong in a different way from an untouched one).

dashboard.py gains section 6, reading verify/results/standalone/status.json:
phases modelled/committed per driver, baseline vs after, closed vs regressed,
the subsystem breakdown of what still differs, and the RNG gap. Sections 6-8
renumbered to 7-9; the delta footer tracks the two new counts.
DASHBOARD_README.md documents every number.

findings/control-flow/standalone-scaffold.md has the ranked blocker list.

# SotS RE campaign — coverage dashboard
Generated 2026-09-08 14:35 UTC · `sots-re` @ 66fdf0f,2026-09-08 · `sots-engine` @ bcf4297,2026-09-08 (115 commits) · regenerate with `tools/dashboard.py`
> **North star:** A functional reimplementation of the engine — behavior-equivalent, NOT byte-for-byte
## 1. Map coverage (campaign/board.md)
172 targets · mapped-or-better **145/172** `[████████░░] 84%` · verified **119/172** `[███████░░░] 69%`
| Status | Count | % |
|---|---:|---:|
| verified | 119 | 69% |
| mapped | 26 | 15% |
| in-progress | 2 | 1% |
| backlog | 23 | 13% |
| blocked | 2 | 1% |

## 2. Binary understanding
- RTTI type descriptors: **1,924** (`Game::` 1,404, `Mars::` 194; serializable types 179)
- Classes with recovered member layouts: **384** / 1,598 named classes `[██░░░░░░░░] 24%` — `objects/layouts.json` (serializer recovery) plus classes recovered by hand in `struct-recovery.md` + `schema-gaps-resolved.md`. Note 179 types are *serializable*; the recovery also reaches non-serializable ones, so this is not a subset of that
- Functions: **41,411** (parsed from `01-fingerprint.md`); named/annotated in the **address contract** (`ghidra/addresses.json`, not Ghidra's full rename count): **801**, verified **777** `[██████████] 97%`
## 3. Data layer
- Catalogs: **1,595/1,595** files parsed (91 block kinds in `schema_stats.json`), dangling cross-refs **0** (`crosslink.json`)
- Oracle `mars-parse`: **1,531/1,531** files agree `[██████████] 100%`
- Oracle `mars-text`: **64/64** files agree `[██████████] 100%`
- Saves: **11/11** real saves strict-clean — strict exit 0, 0 errors, 0 warnings
- Design rules: **127/127** stock designs pass `[██████████] 100%`

## 6. Standalone (`src/app`) — distance to the byte-match
Turn-driver phases: **14/44** modelled (7 committed) `[███░░░░░░░] 32%`
| | verified | implemented | partial | blocked | stub |
|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|
| turn drivers (44) | 0 | 2 | 5 | 7 | 30 |
| post-combat tail (37) | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 35 |
Reference pair `turn1-state.sav` → `turn2-state.sav`, leaves localised by `state_checksum.py` (coverage proved by re-serialisation):
- baseline (a standalone that does nothing): **209** leaves diverge
- after one standalone turn: **204** leaves diverge — closed 5, regressed 0
- byte match: ❌ not yet `[░░░░░░░░░░] 2%`
Where the remaining divergence lives:
| Subsystem | Leaves |
|---|---:|
| `/Sim/players` | 82 |
| `/Sim/systems` | 80 |
| `/Sim/turnstats` | 24 |
| `/Sim/SvSctOb` | 8 |
| `/Sim/DesignIDs[]` | 1 |
| `/Sim/FleetIDs[]` | 1 |
| `/Sim/ModCount` | 1 |
| `/Sim/NMnx` | 1 |
Generator: 0 word(s) modelled per turn; unattributed per turn: 18-20 (lane Z, in flight). A byte-match is impossible until that closes — the generator state is saved state.
Detail: `verify/results/standalone/report.txt`.
