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)
