A discard pile already exists -- solution_discard on GroundState,
SolutionDiscarded removes from hand, and the page renders it. Building
one would have been building a thing that is there. What was dragged are
ACTION cards, which are not cards and are correctly never consumed;
solution cards leave the hand at Resolve because a selection is a
face-down commit.
But the report points at something real. Measured live: Investigate
draws correctly (2 -> 3 -> 4 cards), and Solve was then played three
times on problem-1 with the hand unchanged at 4 and discard empty --
because problem-1 was face down and GR-A02's resolver silently
continues. legal_commands offers Solve on every face-up problem without
consulting the hand.
Whether SOLVE should be selectable against a face-down problem or an
unmatchable suit is a game-semantics question and INTENT defers those to
ground-game. What is ours is that a provably-inert move is offered,
accepted and never accounted for. Folded into T02 as the case the log
must handle: a command that produced NO events is the one the player
needs to see.

Provenance: the maintainer reported 'after some time i get an empty page
back. I guess the game crashes or ends but that is unclear as the ui
disappears.' Reproduced by driving a real game to completion over HTTP:
move 5 accepted, then GET / -> Connection refused. The game ENDED
normally, 5 rounds and 30 commands, and its whole result -- coalitions,
scores, winners, hash -- went to the terminal. next_choice only accepts
connections inside a human decision point, so when play() returns the
listener dies and the post-ok reload is refused. A crash and a win
render identically: nothing. Same class as CB-WP-0016's silent drop.
Also carries the chaos rate change CB-EV-0015 owed to the next
declaration (d4 -> d8, second window of 12), which is what makes this
structurally M. Rolled at the old d4=3, no override, because a rate
changes when the decision lands and not retroactively.
