The Game8 page stopped being updated on 31 August 2025 and mentions 2026 zero
times, and it had been publishing five year-old events with endsAt: null — which
the app renders as live-with-unknown-end indefinitely. That is worse than an
empty lane, and nothing in the pipeline catches it, because a stale page is not
a broken one: it fetches, it parses, it passes every test.
The replacement is the game's Fandom wiki, permitted by the same standard
robots.txt that cleared Nikke, maintained to within two days, and shaped as
Current / Upcoming / Permanent / Past tables of Event | Duration | Description
| Type.
Its durations state a wall clock on both sides and no zone anywhere for that
column, so parseZonelessClockRange reads the clock and discards it, publishing
the printed date at day precision. That invents nothing and treats these cells
exactly as every Game8 date already is. Converting instead would mean picking an
offset, and the offset moves the day: July 16 20:00 read as UTC-7 is July 17,
and the start's day is half of every event ID this game will ever have.
The Game8 entry is removed rather than kept as a second opinion, since a source
whose every row is wrong is not corroboration. Its fixture stays: it is the only
page here carrying the labelled "Start: ... End: Permanent" shape, and the test
now drives it through the parser directly.
Titles come from a link's title attribute, which never passes through text(), so
they are entity-decoded by hand — otherwise "Alison's Travel Shop" becomes a
slug, and a slug is a localStorage key. The ingest sanitiser caught exactly that
during the build.

Its robots.txt was read in a browser and is the standard Fandom file: no
Disallow: / for *, /api.php?action= explicitly allowed, and only the namespaces
we never want refused. The AI crawlers it blocks by name are not us. That was
the one thing missing — the API itself has always answered our own User-Agent
with a 200, and it is only robots.txt that a datacentre address cannot read.
The zone lives in the column header, Start(UTC+9) / End(UTC+9), and no date in
any cell carries an offset. So the header is the safety property: a table that
stops naming its zone is refused rather than read as UTC, which is the Blue
Archive hazard arriving one column to the left.
Two shapes worth knowing. Every title is an image read from <a title>, and the
newest row is the one whose logo has not been uploaded yet — it renders as a
red link reading "File:Persona on Frontline logo.png", so a reader that only
understood the link title would silently drop today's live event. And story
events state a clock only on the end, so the start keeps the day the page
printed rather than being shifted nine hours into the previous one; the start's
day is half an event ID. That is the FGO rule applied to the opposite gap.
resetOffsets and resetHourLocal ship with the game because the page evidences
both: events end 04:59:59 and the banner replacing them starts 05:00:00, one
second later, on a stated UTC+9. Adding that later would re-label day keys
readers had already logged ticks under.
Seconds now survive the date helpers, since rounding 04:59:59 to the minute
would make an event overlap the banner that succeeds it.

uma.moe stays declined — its API sits behind a Cloudflare Turnstile proof
header, and an adapter would mean defeating a deliberate access control. This
is the surface that is simply open, and it needed the parser change in the
commit before this one to be readable at all.
The stable URL matters: Game8 also publishes monthly "August 2026 Release
Schedule" pages whose id changes every month, which a static registry cannot
follow. "List of All Banners" does not move.
Four current banners, both columns of the side-by-side table, and none of the
Previous Banners below them. The tenth game8 source, so it carries the same CI
blindness as the other nine and only a manual refresh moves it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
No parser work at all — a GameId, a games entry, a SOURCES line, a fixture and
a test. The page lists six current events and the parser publishes four; the
two it skips print "Start Date: -", and no start means no event ID, so that is
the skip-never-guess rule working rather than a silent drop.
The cost is worth stating plainly: this is the ninth game8 source, and game8's
edge answers the Actions runner with a 202 and a bot-management body, so the
lane is built from a checked-in fixture in CI from day one and only a manual
`bun run refresh` moves it. freshness() discloses that in the footer, which is
what it is for.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
This wiki publishes the same schedule twice and the fuller surface is the worse
one. /wiki/Banner_List has 55 clean rows with full wall clocks and states no
timezone anywhere on the page; the front page's Current Banners module emits
the same instants as real <time datetime="...-07:00"> elements. The two agree
exactly, which is strong evidence the list is UTC and is still only evidence —
so we read the surface that says what it means and pay four live banners
instead of a full history for it. If an editor ever states the zone on
Banner_List, that page becomes the better source immediately.
Two ways this could have failed silently. The template writes its BEM
underscores as __, so a selector written against the class name a
browser shows matches nothing at all; and banner names are red links to
?action=edit&redlink=1, which Miraheze's robots.txt disallows, so a href
carrying a query is refused and the page URL stands in.
No resetOffsets, and here the source did state an offset: -07:00, which is US
Pacific and therefore shifts twice a year. That is the Fate/Grand Order gap
arriving through a page that looks like it answered the question.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
The best date material this project has after wiki.gg: every row states an
exact instant on both boundaries and names the zone, so nothing is converted
and nothing is assumed. `parseIsoClockRangeUtc` requires that `(UTC)` rather
than defaulting to it — a row that ever loses it should drop out instead of
landing hours off a boundary the reader is watching in-game.
The hazard here is the Server column. CN, EN and JP rows share one table and
the Chinese schedule runs about a year ahead, which is the akwiki CN-column
problem verbatim: publish EN, skip the rest. Betas are fenced off separately,
being dated exactly like everything else and playable by nobody, and the page
is an archive back to 2023, so currency is decided against ctx.now as in
bawiki. That leaves one live event today — thin, and true.
No resetOffsets: the EN boundaries land on three different clocks, which is a
patch window rather than a reset hour.

PRD gets F15 and the fork that asked for it, DATA-MODEL the prefs field
and the fact that a script outside the bundle now reads that key, and
ARCHITECTURE the pre-paint script — the one piece of this that is neither
CSS nor React.
The AGENTS rule is the part worth reading twice: a component that names a
colour instead of a token now looks right in one theme and wrong in the
other, and nothing will tell you which.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
F1 described "one lane per game" as a fact about the timeline, which is
now false half the time, and the prefs key space did not list the pref
that decides it. Both say why the merged board sorts with
endingSoonestFirst rather than a bare end date, since that is the part a
later change is most likely to "simplify".

A source that prints "August 19, 2026" and no time is stored at 00:00Z,
which is a placeholder for "somewhere in this day" rather than a claim
about when the day opens. The countdown read it literally, which turns it
into exactly that claim — and the UTC day is nobody's. Wuthering Waves
events dated the 19th were still running three hours after we had retired
them, because a European player's day opens at 04:00 on a UTC+1 server;
Asia was four hours out the other way and America nine. Sixty-two of the
eighty-six published events were affected, across ten of thirteen games,
so the reader was reading a wrong number far more often than a right one.
A day-precision boundary now resolves to the reset that opens that
game-day on the reader's server — the same grid daily.ts keys every tick
by, and the only clock we hold for a game. That is a reading of the date
the source printed, not a time invented for it: nothing stored moves, no
event ID moves, and the parsers still refuse to guess.
Two boundaries are never re-anchored. A regionEnds value is already the
instant a source stated per server, so anchoring it would throw a fact
away. And an event the reader typed in was resolved by readerInstant in
their own timezone, which is a stated time too — theirs.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
The adapter shipped with no docs at all, which left the one thing worth
writing down unwritten: this wiki publishes two servers' schedules on
two cross-linked pages, and the Japanese one parses just as cleanly as
ours. That now has a row in the assessed-sources table, a section under
Fandom, and a line in the ingestion pitfalls table alongside the akwiki
CN column and the bawiki JP tab — three sources bitten the same way is
a pattern, not a coincidence.
Also records what resetOffsets cannot express, since fgo is the first
game to need it: a server clock that shifts with daylight saving.
DATA-MODEL's GameId listing was two games behind the schema, missing
holodori as well as fgo.

One density cannot answer both questions the board is asked. A patch cycle is
six weeks, a login campaign runs for months, and 13px a day is a compromise
between "what am I in the middle of this week?" and "how do the next three
months line up?" that serves neither well.
A pair of controls steps through a ladder of day widths and the choice is
remembered, on the same argument as the view tabs: a reader who has said how
they want to read this should not say it again on the next load.
Two things it had to get right. Zooming holds the middle of the view still —
rescaling around the left edge of a three-month board throws away whatever
they had scrolled to, and re-opening at today would undo the scrolling that
got them there. And the dated ticks thin out as the scale shrinks, because a
week is 42px at the widest setting and the dates would sit on top of each
other; the gridlines stay weekly, since they carry the rhythm rather than the
reading.
The scale is stored as the measurement, not a step number, and read through
`snapDayWidth`. An export written against a different ladder then opens on
something close to what its reader chose, and a corrupt value opens on the
default rather than a board one pixel wide.

Adding a source is our decision, not the reader's. Eleven lanes became
fourteen this week, and for someone who plays two that is not a feature
arriving — it is their calendar filling with events they will never open,
which is the thing the first-run picker exists to prevent.
`knownGames` records every lane a reader has been offered; a lane missing from
it is new to them, so it is recorded and hidden on sight. The games chips in
settings list every lane, on or off, which is where they take one up.
The case that had to be right is the reader who installed before any of this
existed: they have no `knownGames` at all, and reading that as "has been
offered nothing" would switch off every game they already read. Absent means
unrecorded — the first pass records what is already on their screen and
changes nothing else. Lanes they invented are recorded but never hidden;
typing a game in is asking for it.
The decision is a pure function so this is provable rather than watched for.
One real cost, stated in the PRD rather than hidden: a reader whose game
finally arrives is not told, which makes the colophon roadmap matter more.

New holodoriwiki parser plus the holodori-holodoriwiki-events source,
giving the game its two live and upcoming events at exact precision.
holodori.wiki is Miraheze, so this is the same call bawiki makes and for
the same reason: robots.txt disallows /w/ and /*?action=, which closes the
API route and leaves the rendered /wiki/Events page as the surface * is
allowed. It serves our own User-Agent a 200, sets no Content-Signal and no
Crawl-delay for us, and the wiki is CC BY-SA 4.0.
What makes this source unusually good is that it states its timezone on
every cell — 08/17/2026 8:00PM (JST) — so it is the only wiki source here
publishing exact precision on both boundaries without a per-region timer.
parseSlashClockZone requires that zone rather than defaulting to UTC: a row
that ever loses it drops out instead of silently landing nine hours off,
and an abbreviation absent from the table is refused rather than guessed,
which is why the table holds only JST and not the plausible-looking
candidates that are not fixed offsets. The 12-hour clock gets its own
handling and its own tests, because 12PM and 12AM are the two readings a
naive parser gets wrong while still producing a valid-looking instant.
Inclusion is fenced by the Current Events <h2> and bounded by the next one.
That matters more than it looks: Past Events sits directly below with
identical columns, so a reader taking every wikitable would put the back
catalogue on the calendar with nothing to mark it. Rows are still checked
against ctx.now on top of the heading, because Current is maintained by
hand and goes stale before anyone moves a row down.
Two rows are deliberately missing. Beginner Mission runs Game Launch →
Unknown, and no start means no event ID — a permanent tutorial chore is not
what a calendar of deadlines is for. An Unknown end is kept as endsAt null,
and unlike bawiki this parser does not drop a started-but-undated row: the
heading has already said the event is running, which is the fact bawiki
lacks when reading an archive.
Every event title is still a red link — the wiki has no article for any of
them yet — so each points at ?action=edit&redlink=1, a create-page form on
a path this robots.txt disallows. Refusing a href with a query keeps those
out and falls back to the events page; the articles get linked when they
exist, with no change here.
holodori gets resetOffsets of UTC+9 across all three regions, evidenced
rather than assumed the way Arknights' is: the game launched worldwide
simultaneously on one service, every boundary is stated in JST, and
Training Support Missions ends at 3:59AM JST, one minute before a 04:00
local reset. Only the offset is overridden; the hour is the default.
Setting it now is free, because no reader has a day key for a game the app
has never shipped — the same override a year from now would re-label ticks
already logged.
Both boundaries and the exclusions are asserted against an independent
extraction off the fixture, computed through a timezone library rather than
by the parser's own arithmetic.
Several counts in AGENTS.md and PRD.md were already stale before this — the
Fate/Grand Order source did not update them — and are corrected to what the
tree now holds rather than to what it held yesterday.

`view` was component state, so a reader who preferred the timeline was put
back on the list by every reload — and which view opened at all had been
decided for them twice over: the PRD said calendar, the app shipped the list.
Neither was the reader's answer.
So the first run asks, and the tabs write to `prefs` from then on. The
question ships pre-answered with the list, because a reader cannot choose
between two layouts they have not seen and that is the one that answers "what
expires next" in a look — and each option is drawn rather than described, for
the same reason. The screen says where to change it afterwards, since the tabs
are small text in a corner.
Adds `view` to the prefs key space. Additive and defaulted, so an existing
reader's stored prefs open exactly where they did before.

New bawiki parser plus the ba-bawiki-events source, giving the game its
two live and upcoming events at day precision.
It reads the rendered /wiki/Events page, which is the opposite call to the
Fandom source next door and for the same kind of reason: bluearchive.wiki
is Miraheze, whose robots.txt disallows /w/ and /*?action=, so there the
API is the closed route and the page is the surface * is allowed. It
serves our own User-Agent a 200, sets no Content-Signal and no Crawl-delay
for us. The Fandom wiki was declined earlier as a JP archive yielding
nothing live; this is the live source that assessment pointed at.
Three page facts shape the parser, each a way to publish a confidently
wrong date. The schedule is a JP/Global tabber and the Japanese version
runs four to nine months ahead, so only Global is published — the akwiki
hazard. The Global tab's nav button carries the id
tabber-Global_version-label and precedes both panels, so slicing from the
first matching id reads the Japanese schedule while believing it read
ours; the first version of this parser did exactly that and published a
JP-only event. And three tabs on the page are named Global, the schedule
plus Mini-Event and Joint Firing Drill, so the schedule is found by its
Name (EN) header rather than by position, with canParse asserting the same
lookup — a renamed tab or column fails the run instead of emptying the
lane.
The page states no time of day and no timezone anywhere, which is why the
dates are day precision and why ba gets no resetOffsets. It also settles
the five other schedule tables, which do carry a wall clock but name no
zone and mostly do not say which server: reading those as UTC would invent
the fact that matters most, and rounding to a day would not save it,
because a 04:00 local boundary falls either side of UTC midnight depending
on the offset assumed and the start's day is part of the event ID. They
are left unparsed deliberately.
The two-event count is asserted against an independent extraction off the
fixture, and both starts corroborate against the per-event infoboxes
elsewhere on the page — GL 2026-08-04 and GL 2026-09-01, where the JP
reruns those tabs would have given are 2026-04-01 and 2026-05-06.
Three comment counts were already stale before this and are corrected to
what the tree now holds rather than to what it held yesterday.

Adds the r1999 GameId and its metadata, plus GameMeta.resetHourLocal for
the fact that makes it unlike every other game here: it rolls its day at
05:00 server time rather than 04:00, on a single global UTC-5 server, so
its day-key boundary is 10:00 UTC.
resetOffsets could not carry that. Landing 10:00 UTC through the offset
would mean claiming a UTC-6 server, and serverOffsetUtc answers more
questions than this one. The new field overrides RESET_HOUR_LOCAL per game
and is absent everywhere else, so no existing reader's logged day moved —
a test pins that for the games that already had readers.
Both facts are read off the source, not assumed: all 154 rows of the
wiki's event list state (UTC-5) and run 05:00 to 04:59, an event ending
one minute before the reset the next one begins on.
No adapter yet, so the game has no events until one lands.

The release thread's only feature request from the reader with the most games,
asked twice and asked for nothing else. No adapter roadmap reaches a ten-game
juggler, so this is the part of the product that serves readers we will never
scrape for.
Records the decision in the PRD as F13 rather than letting the code drift from a
spec that still lists user-submitted events as out of scope, and specifies the
key spaces in DATA-MODEL before any of it is built — a reader's event must never
be minted as ${game}:${slug}:${date}, because they can type a title identical to
a scraped one and the collision would silently share one completion mark, note
and streak between two events.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
The most-named game in the release thread, and the cheapest one to add: the
GameId, hue and dailyTasks have been sitting in games.ts since launch with no
source behind them.
arknights.wiki.gg is a better source than Game8 for this game, but it is not the
mp-event shape wikigg.ts reads, so it gets its own parser. Two properties of the
page drive the code:
- Every row lists CN and Global, about five months apart. Only Global is
published; a row without one yields no event rather than borrowing the CN
date. A CN date on a Global calendar is a confidently wrong date.
- Only the next boundary carries a machine-readable timer — the end while an
event runs, the start while it is upcoming — so precision differs per side and
flips when the event goes live. An exact instant is accepted only when it
falls on the same UTC day as the date beside it, because startsAt.slice(0, 10)
is part of the event ID: a start that moved a day would orphan every
completion mark on the morning the event began.
Also sets resetOffsets for all three regions to UTC-7. Not a blanket per-game
offset — Arknights genuinely runs one Global server for every region we model,
and the page evidences the clock: every ending event ends at 10:59:59Z, which is
03:59:59 at UTC-7, one second before a 04:00 reset.
Six events, counted independently against the page before and after parsing.

Nine sources across eight games now, two more Game8 page shapes, two more
date formats, and the h4 rule that neither game's page can be read
without.
Also notes what the two new games do *not* have: no `resetOffsets` entry,
so both take the regional default. Neither source states a server map, and
`resetOffsets` feeds `dayKey`, which is a localStorage key — so that is
recorded as an assumption to confirm rather than left to look like a
verified fact.

Dailiness is guessed from the source's wording, which is a weak signal
and wrong in both directions. Guessing on a reader's behalf and hoping
they notice is the wrong default for a checklist they may build a streak
on, so `detectDaily` now starts false and the control carries an
Experimental tag saying what it does and doesn't know.
The default applies to new readers only — a stored `prefs` keeps its
value, because switching it off under someone who has been ticking
auto-detected checklists would pull those chips out of the strip with no
explanation. Nothing is deleted either way.

Switching games on and off says which games you play, and is set once.
It's the wrong tool for what a player of four games does while reading —
clear one game, move to the next — which cost two taps per game and left
the settings panel no longer describing what they play.
Focus is a lens over that filter, not a second filter: a bar at the top,
above everything it narrows, with a "next game" control that steps
through and ends by returning to all. It never touches hiddenGames, and
a focus on a game since switched off is ignored rather than obeyed, so
it can't strand you on a blank page whose cause is elsewhere. Each chip
carries that game's outstanding count, so a game with nothing waiting
says so before you visit it.

Endfield has two server groups, not three: Europe is served off the
Americas machine on a fixed UTC-5, so a European player's day rolls at
09:00 UTC. We were resetting it six hours early, at 03:00, which ticked
the wrong box every morning between those two instants.
Adds GameMeta.resetOffsets, a sparse per-region override, and threads an
optional `game` through every day-key function. Per region rather than
per game on purpose: a blanket offset would drag Asia — which does have
its own Endfield server — onto the Americas clock, moving day keys for
readers who never had the bug. A regression test pins Asia's output as
identical to before.
Day keys are localStorage keys, so this re-labels ticks logged between
03:00 and 09:00 UTC by European Endfield players, one day backward. No
tick is deleted and past days stay editable, but a streak can read as
broken for a day. That is the cost of correcting a wrong reset; leaving
it wrong is worse.

Guessing from a source's wording is right most of the time, and someone
who finds it wrong often enough should be able to stop it rather than
dismiss the same false positive every patch.
Off, only events the reader marked themselves get a checklist. It
silences the guess rather than deleting anything: overrides, ticks and
streaks all survive, so switching it back on restores exactly what was
there. With it off, marking an event stores an explicit yes, since there
is no longer a detection for an override to agree with.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
Dailiness was read off the source's wording alone, which is wrong in both
directions: a grind that resets every day but whose page never prints
"daily" got no checklist, and a banner whose blurb mentions "daily login
rewards" got one nobody could dismiss.
The reader's answer now wins. The control sits exactly where the
checklist goes — the one place the answer visibly matters — so marking an
event and ticking today off are the same gesture in the same place.
An override is stored only when it disagrees with detection. Recording
agreement would freeze today's guess into the reader's own data, so a
later parser improvement could never reach that event.
Marked events also join today's dailies at the top of the page, beside
the per-game chores: at 23:50 a login campaign and a commission run are
the same job, and ticking one should not mean opening a sheet to find its
checklist.

The status sections claimed the feed was generated from fixtures and the
scheduler unbuilt, which stopped being true. Also documents the
sanitisation stage and the two new key spaces — `dailies:<game>` and
game-day keys — beside the existing warning about event IDs, since they
carry the same "no server-side recovery" property.

The docs had drifted in ways that would mislead: DATA-MODEL documented a
localStorage shape the code stopped using (completedAt, no ignored store),
INGESTION claimed three Game8 templates when five are known, ARCHITECTURE

skill described a pipeline that does not exist yet without saying so.
