+# Phase 9.0R1 Game Opening Redesign Goal
+
+## Owner Decision
+
+The Owner rejected remote Web source `f0aa84738041cebf4968d91c6bf170668804e203`.
+The opening looked like a form rather than a game, exposed development labels,
+split recruitment into two unexplained systems, hid revision/reset affordances,
+and stopped before any playable encounter.
+
+This Goal replaces that first-play structure. It does not preserve the rejected
+Contract/First Market presentation merely because its domain tests were green.
+
+## Decision Enabled
+
+Decide whether a fresh player can enter a recognizable Japanese hand-painted
+fantasy game, build one understandable two-person Company, see those characters
+act in a short battle, understand the result, and restart without coaching.
+
+## Player Chain
+
+```text
+title -> guild_yard_team_build -> departure -> tutorial_battle -> first_victory
+          ^          |                                      |
+          +-- replace+---------------- home / restart -------+
+```
+
+## Owned Scope
+
+- Keep the verified cold boot and Title technical behavior but remove internal
+  milestone language from all player-facing screens.
+- Replace Contract, difficulty, four-provisional-plus-two-paid recruitment,
+  equipment purchase/equip, order optimization and receipt screens with one
+  scene-based opening Company choice.
+- Present two explicit positions:
+  - front: Hearthguard or Wayrunner;
+  - rear: Farstring or Kindhand.
+- Show the selected characters standing in the yard before departure. Choosing
+  the other candidate replaces the current occupant; it never dead-ends.
+- Run one 30-60 second authored tutorial battle with visible advance, front-line
+  contact, enemy attack, front role response, rear ranged attack or healing,
+  enemy defeat and victory.
+- Always expose Home and a confirmed Restart Experience action after Title.
+- End with `First expedition complete`, the chosen Company and one explicit next
+  goal. No chapter-complete claim is legal.
+
+## Experience Contract
+
+- Fantasy: assemble a small guild squad and watch the formation prove itself on
+  a dangerous route.
+- First focal read: characters acting in the world.
+- Second focal read: the current choice or threat.
+- Third focal read: compact health/role feedback and one primary action.
+- First action by 20 seconds: place or replace one character.
+- First complete Company by 60 seconds without coaching.
+- First encounter begins by 90 seconds and resolves by 150 seconds.
+- The player can explain front versus rear contribution after the result.
+
+## Presentation Contract
+
+- Japanese 2D hand-painted fantasy environment and full-body character art are
+  the visual authority already accepted in Phase 6.
+- World/actors occupy at least 70% of the landscape play field. HUD and commands
+  overlay the world; they do not replace it with a dashboard.
+- UI materials use dark indigo lacquer, warm parchment, brushed gold edge,
+  teal magical glass and crimson danger. Rectangular controls need layered
+  border, highlight, shadow and pressed states; generic flat gray/gold buttons
+  are prohibited.
+- Cards may frame one candidate choice, but a card wall or page-sized panel is
+  prohibited. Each candidate owns one clear role, consequence and Join/Replace
+  action.
+- No `P9`, `CTR`, `OFF`, `MKT`, `EQ`, receipt, vertical-slice, locked-future or
+  implementation terminology appears in player copy.
+
+## Dynamic Slice
+
+Representative screen: tutorial battle at `844x390` landscape.
+
+Focal order:
+
+1. selected front and rear characters versus the Riftblade on one ground line;
+2. the current attack/guard/heal/projectile consequence;
+3. compact health and one pause/restart surface.
+
+Motion-state table:
+
+| Event | Actor | Anticipation | Impact | Recovery/final | Reduced motion |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| departure | Company | 250 ms lean | advance across ground | contact stance | snap to contact |
+| enemy attack | Riftblade | telegraph | front HP loss | idle | telegraph + final |
+| guard/dodge | front | brace/lean | reduced damage | ready | final pose |
+| arrow | Farstring | draw | projectile + enemy HP loss | ready | projectile final |
+| heal | Kindhand | lantern raise | front HP restoration | ready | value + final |
+| victory | Company/enemy | final attack | enemy falls | victory banner | final poses |
+
+## Acceptance
+
+1. Fresh launch and in-game Restart both reach the same Title/yard state.
+2. Home and Restart remain visible and touchable on yard, battle and victory.
+3. Exactly one front and one rear choice are required; every candidate can be
+   selected, replaced and selected again with no stale state.
+4. No pre-battle Contract, difficulty, paid hire, equipment or order step exists.
+5. Parsed ScreenTouch drives the complete chain with fallback/direct zero.
+6. Normal rendering covers Title, empty yard, one selection, ready Company,
+   battle pressure and victory at `1280x720`, `844x390` and `390x844` in
+   zh_CN/English and 130% text without clipping.
+7. A 15-30 second normal-render recording proves visible actor motion and state
+   change; screenshots alone cannot pass the dynamic slice.
+8. Strict script/parse/resource/import/ObjectDB/RID diagnostics are clean and
+   no owned process remains.
+
+## Frozen
+
+- Contract selection, difficulty, paid Market recruitment, equipment and manual
+  formation optimization.
+- Persistent save/migration, chapters, expanded battles, progression, economy,
+  final audio, bulk assets, device packaging, stores and release.
+- Changes to complete content counts or later-game authority.
+
+## Legal Terminal
+
+`Aetherbound Guild P9.0R1 game opening candidate ready`
+
+or
+
+`Aetherbound Guild P9.0R1 redesign required: <earliest failed player boundary>`

+# Phase 9.0R1 Game Opening Runtime Contract
+
+## State
+
+The successor runtime owns only:
+
+```text
+BOOT -> TITLE -> YARD -> BATTLE -> VICTORY
+```
+
+`home()` returns to Title and clears transient team/battle state. `restart()`
+performs the same reset and returns to Title after confirmation. Browser reload
+also starts from Boot because this slice has no persistence.
+
+## Team
+
+Front choices:
+
+- Hearthguard: takes the enemy contact and visibly guards.
+- Wayrunner: takes the enemy contact and visibly evades/counterattacks.
+
+Rear choices:
+
+- Farstring: attacks safely with a visible projectile.
+- Kindhand: restores the injured front character.
+
+One member per position. Selecting another candidate replaces that position.
+No currency, offer ID, purchase, dismissal or capacity system is involved.
+
+## Battle
+
+The battle is a deterministic tutorial presentation, not the later authoritative
+combat system. It must bind visible values and motion to one fixed sequence:
+
+1. Company and one Riftblade advance to contact.
+2. Riftblade damages the selected front.
+3. Front guard/dodge response reduces or answers pressure.
+4. Farstring damages the Riftblade, or Kindhand heals the front.
+5. The Company performs a final combined action.
+6. Riftblade reaches zero and falls; victory appears once.
+
+The two rear choices must visibly change the sequence and final explanation.
+Home/Restart cannot grant a victory or retain transient HP.
+
+## Reused Runtime Art
+
+No new provider generation is owned by this slice. Runtime copies are
+byte-identical to accepted Phase 6 authority:
+
+- `runtime/assets/backgrounds/first_expedition_field.png` <-
+  `phase6_battle_scale_04/outputs/01_empty_battlefield.png`;
+- Riftblade idle/attack/hit/death <- accepted Phase 6 motion frames;
+- `protect_absorb`, `protect_gain` and `damage_heavy` <- accepted Phase 6 VFX
+  `@2x` files.
+
+The existing four full-body Recruit anchors remain the Company identity source.
+Godot `.import` sidecars are import metadata, not new art sources.
+
+## Player Copy
+
+Allowed player labels describe place, role, action, threat and result. Internal
+IDs and delivery milestones are forbidden. The victory state says the first
+expedition is complete and that the guild can next learn hiring and equipment;
+it does not claim a chapter is complete.
+
+## Evidence Markers
+
+- `ABG_P9_0R1_DOMAIN_OK`
+- `ABG_P9_0R1_TOUCH_OK`
+- `ABG_P9_0R1_LAYOUT_OK`
+- `ABG_P9_0R1_RUNTIME_CAPTURE_OK`
