Operator drove the expired row 1000000155 (res 158023, 93 RW) in FIFA 17 with the candidate deployed: the row was still actionable, Return to Club was offered, and it worked — "the card is back in my club". Server-verified durable afterwards, which is what a fresh session reconstructs: /tradePile total 0 with zero rows, /tradePile/counts all zero, the card present in /club (1965 -> 1966 items, itemState "free"), zero duplicate ids, no stale active listing anywhere in the store (both rows cancelled), and the ended auction projecting as `closed` (4) on /trade/status. Fix A intact: zero `inactive` rows. So `listFS` -> `forSale` is protocol-correct AND behaviour-preserving on the path that matters, and `listFS` is gone from production serialization. Also worth recording what the result rules out: CARD_OFFERSTATE is NOT a gate term that requires -1. Every actionable row we had ever seen carried itemState -1, which looked like a possible client rule; it was a coincidence of our own invalid token. An expired row decoding CARD_OFFERSTATE = 5 stayed actionable. Deliberately NOT claimed: anything about the Flash action gate itself. STATE and the RESERVEDPRICE/MAX_CREDITS pair are untouched and still confounded, so the gate remains Category C / STRONGLY SUPPORTED / not proven, and AVM1 disassembly of tradepile.isInActiveAuction is still the separate next investigation. One gap left open honestly: no ACTIVE seller row existed during the session, so active-row rendering under `forSale` is unverified. /transfermarket has always emitted `forSale` on active rows, so it is expected-safe, but it has not been seen.
OpenFUT
Offline Ultimate Team — like SPT, but for FIFA 23.
OpenFUT replaces EA's retired FUT servers with a fully offline, single-player backend. You own FIFA 23 legitimately. You just want to keep playing after EA shut down the servers.

SQLite database
Core is game-independent. It speaks a clean REST API and knows nothing about FIFA 23 internals.
Bridge is FIFA-specific. It speaks FIFA 23's wire protocol and translates it into Core API calls. Bridge is where all reverse engineering work happens.

Design Principles
- Offline-first. No EA account required. No internet connection needed.
- Single-player only. This is not a multiplayer server emulator.
- Data-driven. All cards, packs, SBCs, and objectives are JSON files. Everything is moddable.
- Clean architecture. Core has zero knowledge of FIFA 23. Bridge has zero game logic.
- No copyrighted assets. No real player images, no EA trademarks in data files.
