objective() reads GroundState::score (now public) rather than restating
what winning is; a copy in the bot would disagree with the kernel the
first time ground-game rules on F28.
Working out WHERE the modes can differ was most of the task and it
bounds the result: SOLVE always claims for the actor, so own-score and
group-score want the same SOLVE nearly everywhere. That is a fact about
GROUND's action set, not a shortcoming of the bot. Two real divergences,
both readable off the table: SUPPORT regulates someone else (worth less
against a rival, worth MORE under coalitions where a Bond merges them
into my side), and SOLVE's value is the card's value, which greedy
ignores entirely.
THE RESULT — F27 splits in two:
group success UNCHANGED in 34 of 36 cells
who wins MOVES: BONDED COALITIONS at 4p goes 2.04 -> 2.98,
2.12 -> 3.29, 2.05 -> 3.01 winning seats per game
So "the competitive modes are scoring lenses over cooperative play" was
too strong and is withdrawn. The sharper claim: GROUND's scoring modes
change WHO WINS, not WHETHER THE GROUP SUCCEEDS. And the effect is
seat-band dependent -- 2p none, 4p largest, 6p none under coalitions;
two relation slots capping network growth is a candidate explanation and
is untested.
The panel now prints BOTH policies side by side. That was a correction
mid-task: the first version printed only the new one and I compared it
against a figure remembered from CB-WP-0047 -- a comparison against a
board nobody re-ran.
Control that makes the numbers mean anything: under SHARED GROUND the
two policies agree at all but <=2 decision points across 12 boards, so a
moving column is mode-awareness and not simply a different bot.
Also: two T01 tests keyed on `status: proposed`, which ground-game
renamed to `ready-for-implement` mid-session. They now find the module
by asking resolve() -- the structural property is ours and does not move
when another repo edits its vocabulary.
Also: `make vendor` replaces three hand re-vendors with a tool that
regenerates digests by walking editions/, and reports one-sided files
rather than resolving them.

Module: problem_deal.pressure_deck
| aspect | problem_deal |
| module_id | problem_deal.pressure_deck |
| role | Small start set + mid-game Pressure deck draws |
| status | ready-for-implement (draft frozen for v0 kernel) |
| rules_delta | rules_delta.yaml |
| design | history/260808-deal-end-sequences-design.md |
Independent of end_condition. Recommended compose with
problem_stress.scoped so drawn scopes matter. Measure alone first if
possible (with default problem_stress.none, influx still adds board clutter).
Frozen v0 rules
DEAL-START
- Always in play at setup: Surface Problem (priority 0).
- Also deal face-down: hidden priority 1 (and priority 2 only if seats ≥ 4).
- All other scenario Problems for that scenario go into the Pressure deck, shuffled with the game seed (deterministic).
- Seat-band
kfrom r0 does not bulk-deal the rest; influx replaces “deal all k at once.”
| seats | starters in play | rest → pressure deck |
|---|---|---|
| 2–3 | Surface + H1 | H2… |
| 4–6 | Surface + H1 + H2 | H3… |
DEAL-INFLUX
At Round End (after problem-stress ticks if any, before DARVO arm):
- If Pressure deck non-empty and unclaimed Problems in play < open_cap, draw 1 card into play.
- open_cap = number of seats.
- Placement: face-down if hidden/personal/bond as printed; Surface-like global face-up if scope is global.
- Stop drawing for that End once one card is drawn (v0: max 1 per round).
DEAL-OWN (if problem_stress.scoped also active)
- personal: owner = Lead at time of draw (or next free seat clockwise if Lead already owns ≥2 personal — v0 simplify: drawer seat = current Lead).
- bond: same owner rule; network = Bond network of owner.
- global: no owner.
If problem_stress.none, owners may still be recorded for table clarity but
have no stress effect.
DEAL-POINTS (v0)
- Cards that entered via Pressure deck draw have point_value 0 for scoring (stress / fiction only).
- Starters keep printed
point_value. - Scenario thresholds unchanged (5/7/9) and apply only to starter claims
- any printed values that were starters.
This avoids reopening GR-E01 arithmetic while testing influx.
Non-goals (v0)
- Problems in Solution hand.
- Multiple draws per round.
- Owner-only SOLVE.
- Changing thresholds mid-game.
Success criteria (when clay-borg implements)
- Games show mid-game influx (deck depletes or open_cap binds).
- With scoped stress: variance and DARVO still possible; greedy SHARED 3–4p wins not collapsed to H1-zero.
- Threshold success still well-defined (starter points only).
- Composable: works with default end_condition and with hybrid end.
