The retail client sends BOTH casings. Observed twice on staging, each time inside a genuine client sequence: 16:56:56 route=squad-active 200 16:56:56 GET /ut/game/fifa17/usermassinfo -> passthrough -> 502 16:56:56 route=userMassInfo 200 classify matched the exact literal `userMassInfo`, so the lowercase request fell through to the Python upstream. Today that is a harmless 502 because the upstream is dead and the client immediately retries with the canonical casing - but on a deployment with Python ALIVE that request would be ANSWERED there, silently splitting authority away from Rust for a route Core owns. That is the real defect, not the wasted round trip. Fixed with the smallest possible alias: this one tail is matched case-insensitively, the rest of the table stays exact since no other route has ever shown a casing variant. Paths are NOT globally lowercased. Tests cover the canonical casing, lowercase, uppercase, two adjacent tails that must NOT be swept up by the alias (`usermassinfox`, `usermass`), and method semantics (PUT/POST still passthrough). With the alias reverted the test fails.
OpenFUT
⚠️ Status — see
docs/PROJECT_STATE.md(canonical). The working, actively-developed target is FIFA 17, not FIFA 23. Everything below this banner describes the superseded FIFA 23bridgelineage and is kept for historical context.Run the server (canonical):
cd fifa17-recon/docker/fifa17-python && docker compose up -d— seefifa17-recon/FUT-RUNBOOK.md.openfut-coreis the shared offline backend (still used by the FIFA 17 path);openfut-bridgeis the retired FIFA 23 integration.
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.

Running
# Start the offline backend
cd openfut-core
cargo run
# Start the proxy (for traffic capture / FIFA integration)
cd openfut-bridge
cargo run
Core listens on http://127.0.0.1:8080 by default.
Bridge listens on http://127.0.0.1:8443 by default.
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.
