## 2. Key Artifacts & Deliverables

### Server Architecture
- `server/world/wilderness_map_generator.py` (293 lines): Procedural tile generator from `(zone_id, seed, biome_id)` with guaranteed 8.0-tile spawn floor clearing, sinuous main path ($\ge 1.25$ sinuosity), 2–3 encounter clusters, 1–2 dead-ends, and sealed boss arena.
- `server/world/map_binary_serializer.py` (161 lines): Compact wire serializer with 16-byte fixed header, POI/encounter tables, and 1 byte/tile payload.
- `server/world/map_data_types.py` (223 lines): 20 discrete `TileType` codes, passability/vision masks, and movement cost factors.
- `server/world/procedural_map_engine.py` (445 lines): Zone map caching and topological connectivity A* verification.
- `server/world/zone_engine.py` (482 lines): Authoritative spawn validation (Safe Haven purity, 8.0m waypoint safe radius, tile passability).

### Client Architecture
- `client/webapp/js/engine/tile_grid_loader.js` (163 lines): Binary ingestion, 16-byte header & magic `0x4645` validation, `getTileAt`, `setTileAt`.
- `client/webapp/js/engine/tile_map_renderer.js` (294 lines): 16x16 chunk OffscreenCanvas caching with 8 fixed LRU slots, 4-plane SAT Diamond culling, 0 stationary re-bakes, and 2.5D elevation extrusion.
- `client/webapp/js/engine/collision_engine.js` (232 lines): Tile-level circle-AABB collision and zero-heap 2-axis sliding physics.
- `client/webapp/js/ui/war_fog.js` (284 lines) & `war_fog_renderer.js` (192 lines): 3-state FoW matrix, Base64 `< 2 KB` `localStorage` bit-packing, dual-pass rendering, and anti-maphack targeting suppression.
- `client/webapp/js/ui/minimap_hud.js` (261 lines): Dedicated $120 \times 80\text{px}$ HUD Minimap with 30Hz frame throttling and pause freeze.
- `client/webapp/js/engine/grid_pathfinder.js` (304 lines): Pre-allocated static typed arrays, Supercover DDA LoS shortcut, zero-heap A* pathfinder, and corner-cutting avoidance.
- `client/webapp/js/engine/monster_pack_system.js` (284 lines) & `ambush_trigger_system.js` (149 lines): Terrain-anchored pack spawning, pack leashing (~9.0 tiles), scripted POI ambushes (1.0 tile proximity), and zone encounter progress tracking.
- `client/webapp/js/engine/boss_gate_controller.js` (198 lines): 3-state state machine, proximity lore popup ($\le 3.0$ tiles with $> 3.5$ hysteresis), and dynamic gate tile unlock.
- `client/webapp/js/engine/world_renderer.js` (475 lines) & `monster_system.js` (477 lines): Waypoint safe radius enforcement (8.0 tiles), entity suppression in fog, and HUD/POI rendering.
- `client/webapp/index.html` (199 lines): Top-right minimap container mount, pause overlay, and audio/canvas infrastructure.

### Test Suites & Quality Infrastructure
- `tests/e2e/test_poe2_map_system_e2e.py` (81 tests): 100% pass across Tiers 1–4.
- `tests/unit/test_encounter_zones.py` (16 tests): Encounter packs, POI ambush, binary roundtrip, pathfinder.
- `tests/unit/test_tile_collision.py` (11 tests): Direct blocking, sliding, corner sliding, boss gate locking.
- `tests/unit/test_fog_and_minimap.py` (14 tests): 3-state vision, bitpacking, minimap projection, anti-maphack.
- `tests/unit/test_waypoint_safe_radius.py` (17 tests): Waypoint safe radius, monster rejection, healing.
- `tests/unit/test_monster_poise_and_leash.py` (10 tests): Leash return, invulnerability, poise recovery.
- `tools/perf/map_render_benchmark.js`: Mobile benchmark (0 stationary re-bakes, 162k FPS, RAM 16.01 MB $\le 16.5$ MB).
- `tools/perf/stress_test_grid_pathfinder.js`: Zero-heap pathfinder stress (0 GC events over 5,000 queries).
- `tools/security/run_independent_security_audit.py`: Independent security audit gate (0 vulnerabilities).
- `tools/lint/check_code_and_doc_hygiene.py`: Strict quantitative line limits linter (0 violations across 621 files).
