Session 6 closed with a four-item UX punch list (unlock foundations,
drop shadows, drop-target highlights, stock badge). All four shipped
in session 7, plus an unrelated font-fallback fix surfaced by a
second-machine smoke test that landed before the UX work.
Refreshes the doc to reflect:
- HEAD: 655dfde, 3 commits ahead of origin
- 982 tests pass (was 962)
- Session 7 changelog table summarising the five commits
- UX punch-list entirely closed; release-prep items still on the
table but un-deferred (player gets a directional choice next session)
- New "next-round candidates" UX list (animated focus ring,
achievement onboarding, mode-switch keyboard shortcut, aspect-ratio
fidelity, foundation completion flourish, drag-cancel tween)
- Resume prompt asks A/B/C: tag v0.11.0, README/CHANGELOG first, or
start a new UX round
Length 120 → 109 (-11) by trimming the spent priority list.
