+name: vanilla-parity
+description: Fix a Horizon bug or gap so it behaves 1:1 like vanilla 26.3, starting from the port ledger (tools/port_ledger.py) instead of grepping. Use for any issue, Discord report or PR that makes Horizon match vanilla: "X doesn't work like in Java", a missing sound, particle, animation, mob behaviour, block rule, screen or packet.
+---
+
+# Vanilla parity with the port ledger
+
+The port ledger pairs every vanilla method with the Rust fn that ports it (or says it is missing, or needs
+no port) and lists where a port isn't wired like vanilla. Ask it first; grep only for what it can't answer.
+Full reference: `docs/port-ledger.md`.
+
+## 0. Have a fresh ledger
+
+```sh
+python3 tools/port_ledger.py build          # ~20 s; again after pulling main
+```
+
+It needs the vanilla jar (the launcher's `versions/26.3/26.3.jar`, or `--jar`) and/or the lab's decompiled
+sources (`python3 tools/lab.py decompile`, or `--sources DIR`). If `build` says it has no vanilla code, run
+the lab first; don't guess vanilla from memory.
+
+## 1. From the report to the code
+
+```sh
+python3 tools/port_ledger.py issue 3236                      # a GitHub issue number
+python3 tools/port_ledger.py issue "mooshroom stays red after lightning"   # or the report's text
+```
+
+It ranks the vanilla classes the report names and lists, per class, its Rust home files, where each method is
+ported, and the known gaps (`missing` rows from the verdict map, seam/client/drift gaps). Often the cause is
+already written there ("Type is not saved"). Then drill in:
+
+```sh
+python3 tools/port_ledger.py where MushroomCow.readAdditionalSaveData   # ports, callers, callees, gaps
+python3 tools/port_ledger.py class MushroomCow                          # every method: where, or missing
+python3 tools/port_ledger.py what crates/horizon-client/src/mobs/farm.rs:120   # which vanilla method a fn ports
+```
+
+A ledger answer is a lead, not a verdict: about 1 in 12 map rows is wrong. Read the vanilla method (path and
+line are in the output) and the Rust fn before changing anything.
+
+## 2. Port it the vanilla way
+
+- Translate the vanilla method, don't reinvent it: same order of operations, same constants, the same random
+  draws in the same order (`horizon_core::random`), Java `Math` through `horizon_core::jmath`.
+- Open the fn's doc with the vanilla method it ports: `` /// `MushroomCow.readAdditionalSaveData`: ... ``.
+  That one line is what makes the next agent find it.
+- Fix the path players run: single player is a client of the integrated server, so server logic lives in
+  `game/lan*.rs` and `src/lan/`, and what only the client's copy shows (particles, local sounds, hand
+  animation) must be reached from `game/remote*.rs`. A fix on the old in-frame path alone fixes nothing.
+- Look at the neighbours the ledger lists for the same class: a `client` or `seam` gap next to your fix is
+  usually the same bug on the other path.
+
+## 3. Before the PR
+
+```sh
+python3 tools/port_ledger.py check --base origin/main
+```
+
+It lists the ports your branch touches with their open gaps, citations to add, stale citations, and (against
+the base) the gaps the branch closes and opens. Close what belongs to your fix, cite what you ported, leave
+no new stale citation. If you ported a method the verdict map called `missing`, change its row in
+`tools/port_map/*.tsv` to `port` with the fn (`file.rs::Owner::fn`) and run
+`python3 tools/port_ledger.py map-check tools/port_map/<file>.tsv`.
+
+Then the usual: the harness for the area (`docs/architecture.md`), `cargo check`/tests per `AGENTS.md`, and
+a small PR that says which vanilla method it now matches.
+
+## Finding work
+
+```sh
+python3 tools/port_ledger.py gaps --kind seam      # ported on two paths, wired on one: the best leads
+python3 tools/port_ledger.py gaps --kind client    # client-only effects the server path never reaches
+python3 tools/port_ledger.py gaps --kind drift     # a port missing a sound, particle, item or constant
+rg -n "player:" tools/port_map/*.tsv               # missing behaviour a player would see
+```
