1.8.4-alpha.1

Validate six concurrent crafting palette subscriptions with native server transactions, ingredient-route payloads, exact resource/fuel accounting, donor fairness, stale/duplicate inputs and rejection/isolation boundaries.

The measured redundant inventory projection work is reduced by reusing immutable potion-stock counts on the existing owner snapshot. Dirty updates, expiry and lifecycle invalidation remain. Fresh resource debit images and current eligibility checks retain the original execution path. The same native workload compares old/new projection paths; recipe legality, server authority and durable safeguards remain.

Protocol34 and existing saves are retained; matching client/server builds remain necessary. No migration, dependency, heap-budget or cadence change. Native GUI/co-op/whole-world acceptance remains TESTING. Alpha publishes runtime plus matching loading companion; TEST delivery is not required.
