• Fixed duplicate names appearing in Scrum Poker rooms after clearing users and rejoining
• Fixed some game messages appearing twice in the web client
• General site security hardening
• Class pages now show an estimated HP and mana range, with selectors for race, base class and the Constitution merit
• Race pages now show HP and mana columns for every class
• Class pages show how each class casts: full caster or a fraction of its level, and whether the moons affect it
• Class pages show who can play the class, taken from the class cards on the DSL site
• Class experience costs and race stats are now brought in from the DSL site, and the race pages read case-insensitively
• Fixed Ovate showing "?" on its class page, and clan classes now show their HP spread
• Which classes a race can take now follows the reviewed race lists, not the experience table on the DSL class pages (that table lists almost every race for almost every class). Anti-Paladin is now Humans only, like Paladin
• Ability pages and class pages now show how long an ability's effect lasts, in ticks (about 41 seconds each), for 153 abilities: 110 spells, 33 skills and 10 songs. The figure is the longest the effect was ever seen to last in players' game logs, so it can differ with the caster's level
• The damage calculator now finds a class typed in lower case, so Constitution is worked out from the race and the class
• Added read-only JSON for AI assistants at /api/agent: classes, races, abilities (with durations), ability groups, creatures, areas, library books, the Algoron Gladiator League, the game's note boards and the damage calculator. It only offers what the site already shows
• The agent API pages its long lists (notes, creatures, areas, books, league fights) with offset and nextOffset, and is rate-limited per address at the web edge
• Creatures in that data now list what they carry and wear, and areas list the guards at the way in (gateposts)
• Added the game's historical notes as searchable boards (change notes since 1998, news, history, auction notes, bloodbath, out-of-character notices, quests, stories and player notes). Player notes are included only when they were written to everyone, and a note's number says whether it is the game's own or one made from its date
• Added Algoron Gladiator League fights and fighter records, with the winner taken from the loser's death line, and the board history of each championship title
• Fixed the Character Creation Simulator: taking a class's Default package now checks and locks the spell and skill groups it contains (for example Enchantor's Beguiling, Combat and Protective, or Shadowmage's Shadowmagic), so they are no longer charged a second time
• Added agent discovery files so assistants can find the library: llms.txt, an agent catalog under /.well-known, and a library guide for agents. Pages for room lookup, the character creation simulator and feedback also describe their forms to browser-based agents
• Cleaned up the page markup on the Directions and Toasts pages (a stray form wrapper around their content)
