CK3 does not support negative values for add_gold. Replaced all 14
instances across 6 event files with remove_short_term_gold, which
is the correct CK3 effect for deducting gold.

Created mistborn_game_mode game rule with narrative_mode (default)
and sandbox_mode options. Appears on the game setup screen.
Narrative mode enables curated story events; sandbox mode enables
the Discover Your Metallic Arts decision and suppresses story arcs.
Matching triggers added in prior commit.

Created empty replacement files for all vanilla CK3 decision files
to prevent non-Mistborn decisions from appearing in the decision
menu. Covers major decisions, activities, religious, lifestyle,
DLC, regional, and culture-specific decisions.

- Created bookmark_portraits/ with placeholder portrait definitions
for all 4 bookmark characters (regenerate in-game with
dump_bookmark_portraits for proper visuals)
- Added bm_group_1020 bookmark group and localization
- Added start_date to vanilla bookmark suppression entries (required
field per ck3-tiger)
- Removed invalid background field from bookmark definition
- Added replace_path directives for bookmarks to mod descriptors
- Adjusted character positions on the bookmark screen

Added color to language_scadrial and language_terris pillars to
match the vanilla CK3 pattern. Without this, the culture UI may
not display language indicators correctly.

Removed the generic lord_ruler_attention_modifier and unified both
decision checks onto the variable system (var:lord_ruler_attention).
The on_action yearly pulse now applies/removes tiered modifiers
(lord_ruler_attention_1/2/3) based on variable thresholds, giving
players visible feedback that matches the underlying variable state.
Fixes WARNING-05 from the mod review.

Split over-inclusive triggers into distinct variants:
- is_feruchemist_trigger now matches only active trait_feruchemist
- has_allomantic_potential_trigger now excludes already-snapped chars
- Added has_any_feruchemy_trigger and has_any_allomantic_ability_trigger
for broad matching when needed
- Added is_narrative_mode_trigger and is_sandbox_mode_trigger for the
new game mode system
Fixes WARNING-06 and WARNING-07 from the mod review.

Replaced sequential IDs (1-105) with actual vanilla province IDs
from landed_titles (2030-3107 range). Without this fix, no province
had valid culture, religion, or holding data at game start because
CK3 matches province history by vanilla map IDs.

Add background DDS art for the "End of an Empire" bookmark and
reference it in the bookmark definition. Add vanilla bookmark
suppression file to hide all base-game bookmarks since this is a
total conversion.

Corrected allomantic strength trait filenames from
trait_allomantic_strength_* to trait_allomantic_* to match
actual trait definitions in code.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
All trait icons generated via Nano Banana and converted to
uncompressed ARGB DDS at 120x120. Covers the full metallic arts
system: 12 Misting types, Mistborn, 3 Allomantic strength tiers,
2 Allomantic potential tiers, Feruchemist + potential, and 6
Hemalurgy variants. Dark fantasy painterly style with consistent
visual identity across trait families.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

CLAUDE.md: add bookmarks/bookmarks/, opinion_modifiers/, and
religion_families/ to project structure tree.
MASTERPLAN.md: remove resolved trait_knows_hemalurgy item from M1.
REVIEW_NOTES.txt: update WARNING-05 to reflect that tiered attention
modifiers are now defined.

- Remove empty ai_primary_priority block from e_final_empire (the
if block had no effect, causing a lint error)
- Move bookmarks to common/bookmarks/bookmarks/ subdirectory to
match CK3 1.18 expected path
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
CK3 1.18 requires the full has_character_modifier and
add_character_modifier forms. The shorthand has_modifier and
add_modifier are not valid in character scope.

- dynasty_prestige_mult → monthly_dynasty_prestige_mult
- scheme_power_mult → owned_personal_scheme_success_chance_add
- Remove hostile_scheme_resistance_mult (removed in CK3 1.18)
- Move cultural_acceptance_gain_mult from character_modifier to
culture_modifier block where CK3 expects it

- Convert picture fields from string to block format
- Use vanilla trait names (ambitious, sadistic, greedy, callous,
compassionate) instead of trait_ prefixed versions
- Move stress from cost block to add_stress in effect block
- Fix add_opinion: add required target field, remove redundant
opinion value

CK3 defaults to male when no gender is specified, so explicit
male = yes is unnecessary. Fixed decision picture to use reference
block syntax. Changed deprecated beautiful trait to beauty_good_3.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
CK3 1.18 does not use explicit trait index assignments — they are
auto-assigned by load order. Also fixed `opposite` → `opposites`
(correct CK3 keyword) on allomantic strength traits.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add Gender Doctrine group to M3 task 3.8 with three options:
male_preference (Steel Ministry), equal (Survivorism, Terris),
irrelevant (Cult of Ruin). Women can hold titles, serve in
council, and wield Allomancy in all faiths — only inheritance
order is affected. Add gender preference to M4 government types.
Remove integrated ideas from IDEAS.md (unlanded crew → M5,
debug decisions → TESTING.md).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Create docs/TESTING.md with debug game rule, debug decisions per
milestone, log analysis commands, pre-launch validation script,
post-run analysis script, and Claude Code testing capabilities.
Add cross-reference to TESTING.md in each milestone's Testing
Checkpoints section (M1-M8).

Expand M3 with custom education system (5 tracks × 4 tiers), dynasty
legacies (5 universal + 10 house-specific), custom death reasons (12),
and character nicknames (~15). Expand M4 with custom government types
(3), factions (5), vassal contracts (6 terms), secret types (8), hooks
(3), court types (3), and portrait modifier system (10 triggers).
Update MASTERPLAN scope to reflect all new systems.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds static analysis for CK3 mod files using ck3-tiger. The Makefile
downloads the platform-specific binary and persists the CK3 game
directory path for validation runs.
Targets: make setup, make lint, make clean
Config: lords_of_ash/ck3-tiger.conf (English only, hide vanilla)
Commit skill updated with pre-commit lint step.

Update MASTERPLAN.md to reflect new systems added to milestones:
- M3: custom tenets/doctrines, expanded holy sites, Inquisitor
holy order, Keeper Network secret society
- M4: council retheme + court positions, caste laws, innovation
eras, legend suppression
- M5: band council with crew roles
- M7: advanced council interactions, post-endgame throne choice
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Expand milestone docs with several major new systems:
M3: Religion overhaul — 12 custom tenets (3 per faith), 2 custom
doctrine groups (Allomantic Stance, Caste Doctrine), expanded holy
sites (~10, differentiated by faith, with conditional sites),
tradition condition fixes, dead parameter cleanup. New task 3.11:
Steel Inquisitor holy order + individual Inquisitor request mechanic,
Keeper Network secret society with progression and discovery risk.
M4: Council retheme (5 positions with 10 custom tasks), 7 court
positions (Royal Court), legend system suppression, caste law system
(3 tiers: Strict/Relaxed/Abolished with cross-caste consequence
events), innovation system (Age of the Lord Ruler pre-unlocked +
Age of Liberation locked behind lord_ruler_fallen flag).
M5: Band council with 7 crew roles, vacancy penalties, ~14 role
events, and 5 band tasks. Each crew member's Allomantic ability
enhances their assigned role.
M7: Advanced council interactions (~25 events) — kandra courtier
replacement, Court Smoker vs Seeker duels, Obligator Witness
betrayal, Terris Steward Keeper reveal. Post-endgame choice: seize
the throne or release the kingdoms. Variable standardized to
lord_ruler_fallen across all docs.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add new systems across milestones: metal supply and scarcity (M2),
Royal Court artifact system with 9 core types (M3), 5 custom
Mistborn lifestyles replacing vanilla (~75 perks/events each), and
rethemed activities including multi-phase Noble Ball (M5). Also adds
stretch-goal artifacts (~20 types) and 8 Mistborn-specific activities
to M7.

Break the MASTERPLAN into 8 milestone documents (M1-M8) with a
standard template. Each milestone includes prerequisites, current
state assessment, numbered implementation tasks with file references,
testing checkpoints, acceptance criteria, and risk analysis.

Added /orient skill for lightweight context bootstrapping — reads
README.md, skill frontmatters, and mod structure without flooding
context. Added a lean README.md as the entry point for orientation.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Added a Committing section directing Claude to always use the /commit
skill. Updated the CK3 version reference from 1.12 to 1.18.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The mod was targeting CK3 1.12 which is several versions behind the
current 1.18 (Crane). Added Roads to Power DLC as a dependency in
both descriptor files.

Renamed mistborn_final_empire/ to lords_of_ash/ and
mistborn_final_empire.mod to lords-of-ash.mod using git mv.
Updated all references in CLAUDE.md, ck3-game-install skill,
and commit skill.
