Title Skins, Audio and UI

• Added a reusable layered title-screen framework with logical-canvas sprites, looping layers, articulated sprites, textured meshes and responsive scene layout.
• Added themed controls, launch transitions, reveal-safe input gating and priority-based main-menu replacement.
• Made a skin's configured title music trigger its reveal even without a separate music-management feature.
• Preserved configured title music throughout title-screen child menus without restarting the track.
• Added structured track titles and artists, active-music observation and a neutral presentation-policy contract.
• Restricted unified jukebox-title routing to consumers that explicitly activate that capability.
• Added caller-timed marquee animation and callback-based confirmation workflows with consistent Cancel-left ordering.

Block Composition

• Added persistent, synchronized chunk composition cells with independently identified parts and fixed placement slots.
• Added four-quadrant and vertical top/bottom placement, component raycasting and targeted selection.
• Added combined collision and support geometry, component-aware mining, interaction sounds and complete constituent drops.
• Added state-dependent placement, compatible existing-block adoption, insertion compatibility rules and occupied-slot updates.
• Added programmatic insertion/update and composition-change events for feature-owned world responses.
• Corrected mesh refresh and component visibility with alternate renderers, including Sodium.
• Preserved each component's own shader block identity and corrected partial-cell and adjacent placement handling.

Character Rendering Contracts

• Added immutable numeric appearance parameters while retaining the original character-data constructor.
• Applied authored textures and arm geometry to first-person hands, including map poses.
• Added compatibility with external player-animation providers and their finished render poses.

• Added external OGG validation, track catalogs, music metadata resolution and readable title fallbacks.
• Added music-policy, jukebox-control and positional audio-filtering contracts for feature mods.
• Added extensible game-context snapshots, keys, conditions, definitions and priority-based matching.
• Added responsive interface layouts, reusable controls, confirmation screens, hierarchy lists, drag behavior, search, scrolling text, seek controls and transient messages.

• Added character-renderer bridges and layered appearance state for third-person models and first-person hands.
