      v3 Release State

      This page is the source-of-truth snapshot for v3 release scope and current release-state limits. Use it alongside the v3 release notes at /docs/changelog/20260401 and the full release QA checklist in docs/qa/v3.md.

      v3 in-scope systems

      Core gameplay and progression

      • The quest + inventory + process loop is fully in scope for v3.
      • Official content now includes 248 quests across 19 quest trees (current v3 branch snapshot).
      • Quest details render from canonical quest JSON, including branching dialogue, rewards, and requirements.
      • Completionist Award III (completionist/award-iii) is in the v3 capstone lane and remains part of launch sign-off (not a v3.1 deferral); the canonical item is created by assemble-completionist-award-iii, and quest completion does not grant a second copy.

      The More menu includes in-scope routes for:

      • /processes
      • /gamesaves
      • /cloudsync
      • /contentbackup
      • /stats
      • /achievements
      • /leaderboard
      • /titles
      • /toolbox
      • /settings

      Custom content tooling (headline v3 feature)

      • Players can create custom quests at /quests/create.
      • Players can create custom items at /inventory/create.
      • /items/create remains available as a legacy alias that resolves to the same custom item form.
      • Players can create custom processes at /processes/create.
      • Players can manage custom content from each matching /manage route.
      • Players can export/import custom content bundles from /contentbackup.
      • Players can submit bundles through /bundles/submit.

      Save safety and migration

      • v3 uses IndexedDB as primary storage.
      • Legacy upgrade flows support v1 cookie saves and v2 localStorage saves.
      • Save portability is available through /gamesaves plus optional /cloudsync automation.

      NPC chat and AI

      • v3 includes persona-style chat experiences (for example Sydney, Nova, Hydro).
      • OpenAI-only chat is the supported provider path in v3.
      • Chat surfaces include /chat and /dchat.

      Deferred or intentionally limited in v3

      Guild gameplay

      • /guilds remains marked as coming soon in menu navigation.
      • Leaderboard framing exists, but full guild mechanics are not live yet.

      Locations destination

      • /locations remains marked as coming soon in menu navigation.

      token.place integration

      • token.place integration exists behind flags but remains disabled for the v3 launch release.
      • token.place activation is deferred to v3.1 in the follow-up track and is not a v3 launch gate.
      • Current status is tracked at /docs/token-place.

      What changed from earlier versions

      • dUSD, dWatt, and dCarbon are in-game progression currencies (not on-chain tokens).
      • localStorage is no longer the primary save layer.
      • Legacy artifacts are migration sources, not active state.

      v2-only mechanics removed / not applicable in v3

      • v2 localStorage-first saving is replaced by IndexedDB-first persistence in v3.
      • Cookie-based v1/v2 save behavior is migration-only and no longer an active save path.
      • Legacy token/currency assumptions from pre-v3 docs are not applicable to v3 progression.

      Documentation quality gate for v3 changes

      When changing gameplay docs, verify all of the following:

      1. Route is reachable and not marked coming soon.
      2. Behavior matches implemented behavior.
      3. Partially-live systems clearly call out live vs deferred scope.
      4. Linked docs avoid duplicate guidance and defer to canonical pages for details.
