Bug 31 fixed the keypress that opened CHRONICLE but explicitly left the real
gap open: the panel guard matches only LeftPanel / RightPanel, and a centred
panel matches neither. Nothing closed it, and a centred panel blanks EVERY
later template search.
Recurred 2026-08-28 with the merc key never pressed at all
(resurrect_merc | skip | merc alive), so something else opened it and it simply
stayed. The error screenshot shows Chronicle filling the screen while the bot
hunted A5_RED_PORTAL for 66s:
Traverse from a5_larzuk to a5_nihlathak_portal
Wanted to select A5_RED_PORTAL, but could not find it
random guess towards (96, -115)
Wanted to select A5_RED_PORTAL, but could not find it
Why the existing guard missed it, measured on that frame: the Chronicle's close
button scores 1.000 against CLOSE_PANEL_2 at (952, 56). That x IS inside
right_panel_header (830,0,455,56) — but the ROI is 56px tall and the button's
centre sits exactly at y=56, so the match falls outside. Both header ROIs
scored 0.409 and 0.373.
Adds a center_panel_header ROI (400,0,620,92) and a CenterPanel ScreenObject,
and escapes it WITHOUT counting toward a chicken — a centred panel is
self-inflicted UI state like the waypoint panel, and chickening on it throws
away a healthy game. Bounded by the same _MAX_WP_PANEL_ESCAPES so one that
genuinely will not close still falls through.
Verified on the failure frame: CenterPanel True, LeftPanel False, RightPanel
False.

Three fixes from running it against the live game:
1. It blind-pressed the open key. The grid was ALREADY open, so the press
CLOSED it and the scan read grass. Now it detects the grid via its bottom
hint and toggles only when needed, restoring the state it found. The hint
match is fuzzy because Tesseract renders it "PRESS FI-F8 TO BIRD A SKIN"
(BIND->BIRD, SKILL->SKIN).
2. The tooltip ROI was fixed, but the tooltip renders ABOVE the hovered cell
and moves with the row, so it was reading the game world. Now taken relative
to the cell. Skill identification is a fuzzy match against a known list
rather than a demand for clean OCR: real reads included "XI BLESSED HAMMER"
and one frame OCR'd Fist of the Heavens as "LNMEPULE".
3. Hotkey labels are read by TEMPLATE MATCH, not OCR. They are ~20x12px of
white glyph over whatever icon is behind them; brightness thresholding
cannot separate the two when the icon is also bright (F4's swirl, the row-4
weapons) and OCR managed 4/8. A top-hat isolates small bright features
regardless of background: 8/8 with zero false positives.
Matching a same-SIZED crop is 1px-brittle — int() rounding in the grid
geometry lands a pixel off the measured centre and the score collapses from
~1.0 to ~0.4. Exactly the three cells where truncation differed failed. A
4px search slack fixes it; 8/8 held at every threshold 0.60-0.78.
Adds assets/templates/skill_binds/f1..f8.png, cut from a frame with all eight
labels visible.
Verified live: correctly reported conviction=f5 as casting TELEPORT and
concentration=f8 as casting CONVICTION — both confirmed by hand beforehand —
and found Concentration sitting unbound.

Three linked failures that together took the nightmare run from ~8% to ~37% failures.
1. A5_WP matched the HUD. main's recaptured a5_wp.png (14f5876, pulled in by my merge)
scores 0.966 on the belt/mana-orb area at (980, 656) — above threshold and higher than
the real stone — so every search locked onto the HUD, clicked it, and open_wp burned
~83s escalating through anchors before giving up. buy_consumables hit 222-253s and
tripped the 240s maintenance timeout.
Fix: search the waypoint within ui_roi[cut_skill_bar] so the HUD can never compete
(select_by_template gained an optional roi for this), and search BOTH captures with
best_match — main's new one and the pre-merge a5_wp_2.png, which reaches 0.73-0.98 here
against the new one's 0.50-0.58. Neither setup has to lose. 222s -> 33s.
2. My own regression, introduced an hour earlier. The merc check pressed 'o' and closed
the panel only when MercPanelText matched, leaving the CHRONICLE panel (what 'o' opens
on this client) up all game. I "fixed" that with an unconditional esc — which is worse:
with nothing open, esc opens the GAME MENU, which LeftPanel/RightPanel do not match, so
nothing closed that either and every later search saw a menu instead of the town.
Fix: always toggle 'o' back. 'o' opened it, so 'o' closes it, and it cannot open
something new. Symmetry, not detection.
3. resurrect_npc=a4_tyrael (new config, mirrors repair_npc). Measured today:
A4 Tyrael ok 8.2s, ok 24.9s - 0 errors, ever
A5 Qual-Kehk fail 113.6s / 52.0s / 163.1s / 72.6s - 43 errors
Tyrael stands on a fixed spot by the A4 waypoint; Qual-Kehk is the least reliable NPC
in the route. Falls back to the current act if the trip to A4 fails.
Verified live: 4 games, 0 failures, town 17-23s (was 178-230s), approach 11-15s.

main carried 19 commits of separate feature work (baal_xp, cold_plains, melee_hunt,
launch/tools) while stable carried the run_pindle repair. One real conflict, in
_run_wrapper, where both branches added a line at the same point:
stable self.tl("run", "approach", "start") <- run timeline
origin/main self._current_run = run_obj <- baal_xp run tracking
Independent, so both are kept. config/params.ini and src/config.py auto-merged.

run_pindle had a 100% failure rate, and worse, was reporting success while doing
nothing. Five root causes, found by recording the client and replaying the pather's
own matching against the captured failure frames.
1. a5_red_portal.png was the only MASKED template in a5_town/ (4-chan, 60.9% opaque)
because a hover tooltip had been baked into the capture and hidden with alpha.
That routed it to cv2.matchTemplate(TM_CCOEFF_NORMED, mask=...), which OpenCV only
supports for TM_SQDIFF/TM_CCORR_NORMED — hence 0.50-0.60 scores and match positions
that wandered onto unrelated scenery. Recaptured as a plain 3-channel opaque crop of
the portal's upper arch (the lower ring is occluded by branches).
Present 0.949-1.000 / absent 0.398-0.514, straddling the 0.68 threshold.
2. pindle.approach() opened with an "already in Pindle area?" shortcut. Harrogath
scenery scores 0.76-0.79 on PINDLE_7, over its 0.62 bar, so it fired in town and
returned A5_PINDLE_START without ever clicking the portal — the bot "killed Pindle"
in town for five straight games with zero loot and zero XP while logging
runs_failed_total: 0. Shortcut removed; entry is proven by the loading screen.
3. pather.find_abs_node_pos fell back to a 0.55 first-match search that fabricated node
positions (A5_TOWN_1 at 0.60-0.62 on scenery, three different frames, three different
phantom positions), steering the char into the town wall. Raised to 0.62, forced
best_match, and added a per-node heading gate that rejects a low-confidence match
implying a >90 deg reversal. Confident matches are never gated.
4. Walking onto the waypoint opened the WP panel, which health_manager counted toward a
chicken — 3 of 6 games died at full health. WP panels are now escaped without
counting, bounded at 6 attempts.
5. pindle retry re-pathed from a hardcoded A5_TOWN_START; it now verifies the act first.
Verified live: +349,890 XP over baseline, loot drops (Ring, gold), 6 games,
runs_failed_total 0. Docs updated with all four bugs, template asset conventions, and
how to verify a boss run actually killed something (XP delta + loot, never failed:false).

Old template was too large and included background elements that changed
between D2R versions, causing template matching to fail at all thresholds.
New crop isolates just the waypoint stone itself.
Live finding (fresh game, 2026-06-12): D2R skill hotkeys select onto the
RIGHT skill slot, not the left as the old comments assumed. The left slot
permanently holds Blessed Hammer. Consequence: _cast_hammers pressing the
hammer hotkey after activating an aura was REPLACING the aura on the right
slot every cast cycle - the true root cause of fights running without
Concentration. _cast_hammers no longer touches the hammer hotkey: select
aura (lands on right, stays active), hold stand-still, spam left-click.
Verified live: full Diablo kill at 09:04, ~55s from last seal to kill.
Auto skill binding proven end-to-end (tools/set_binds_from_params.py):
blessed_hammer/concentration/redemption/vigor/holy_shield/teleport all
bound via the in-game picker and visually verified (6/7 OK; conviction
correctly reported missing - not skilled on this char).
- capture tool + preflight verify now watch the RIGHT slot
- fresh skill slot templates + clean PICKER_* cell templates captured at
current settings (blessed_hammer, concentration, redemption, vigor,
holy_shield, teleport)
- removed bogus conviction.png (had captured vigor's icon)
