Four defects found by driving a real FIFA 17 client. Each was independently
sufficient to break listing, so all four had to go:
1. Every owned card was shaped `untradeable: true` (adapter item.rs), so the
client greyed out "Place/List on Transfer Market" for the whole club. Owned
and pack-pulled cards are TRADEABLE in FIFA 17; the oracle forces this off
for owned copies too (item_def keeps `true`; instances do not).
2. `POST /auctionhouse` required `itemData.resourceId`, which the client's
FutISStart body never sends (the oracle lists by wire id ALONE). Missing it,
the handler fail-closed and returned 200 while persisting NOTHING. It now
resolves server-side: wire id -> Core owned instance -> its card_id (minted on
a synthetic buy) + FIFA resourceId (the auction record). This also enforces
that a listing can only name a card the club actually owns.
3. An auction record's `itemData` was a 4-field STUB, so the Transfer List had a
row the client could not draw -> "1 item listed" but no visible sale. A
listing now persists a full shaped-card SNAPSHOT (new `listings.item_json`,
additive migration) built by the same `shape_item` shaper `/club` and the
squad projection use, so the auction card renders identically to the club
card. The seller's own pile stamps `itemState: listFS`; market search keeps
`forSale` (the oracle distinguishes these).
4. `/tradePile/counts` shared a handler with `/tradePile`. They are DIFFERENT
deserializers: `/counts` is FutGetAuctionCount, five scalar ints
(count/maxAuctionsAllowed/offered/selling/sold) that it reads and skips
everything else. Served the `auctionInfo` body it left every count at 0, so
the Transfer List screen showed no active sale while the hub tile showed one.
New Route::MarketCounts, classified BEFORE the base tradePile matcher (which
also accepts the /counts path).
Also: a listed card no longer appears in the club. `/club` and the hub's
`clubPlayers` now exclude the transfer pile. Pile membership is host-owned state
Core cannot filter on, so when anything is hidden `/club` reuses the existing
local-filter path (the one `rare=SP` already needed) and paginates the
club-visible set -- letting Core paginate would return short pages. With nothing
hidden the fast Core-paginated path is untouched, and only an EXPLICIT non-club
pile hides a card, so no-pile-row items still default to the club.
Fixed 5 pre-existing test fixtures across 4 targets that listed FABRICATED wire
ids -- only "valid" because the old handler skipped the ownership check.
Tests: 14 targets green + clippy clean, incl. new coverage for the 5-int tally
(asserting it must NOT carry auctionInfo), the full-card snapshot + listFS, and
club pile-exclusion with full-width pagination. The differential test against the
live Python oracle passes.
Verified live on prod: listed=true with a 21-field snapshot; counts
{count:1,selling:1,maxAuctionsAllowed:100}; tradePile renders the 94-rated card;
clubPlayers 1966 -> 1961 (exactly the 5 trade-pile items); listed wire absent
from the club page. Operator confirmed the card is visible in the Transfer List.
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.
