Five entries in the restype table disagreed with upstream
neverwinter.nim's restype.nim, so HAKs written from those source
extensions were labelled with a type the game reads as something else:
gff 0x07F7 (2039, upstream bte) -> 0x07F5 (2037)
ltr 0x0813 (2067, upstream bak) -> 0x07F4 (2036)
jpg 0x081C (2076, upstream tml) -> 0x0821 (2081)
dfa -> dft (0x07FD/2045 was already right,
only the name was a typo)
mdb 0x0816 (2070, upstream xbc) -> removed
Upstream registers no restype for mdb, so there is no correct number to
give it; keeping it squatting on xbc silently mislabels the resource.
It is dropped from AssetExtensions too, which turns .mdb into a loud
"unsupported extension" build error instead of a corrupt HAK entry. No
asset in the current corpus uses any of these paths.
Root cause of the miss: the init() consistency guard only panicked when
a number was missing from the reverse map. Its `if canonicalExt == ext
{ continue }` branch did nothing when the two maps disagreed, so a
mismatch was never caught. The guard now panics on disagreement and
also checks the reverse direction.
Adds a conformance test pinning the shared numbers against upstream,
including the four numbers upstream reserves for other extensions, and
a test that the two maps are mutual inverses.

sow-tools — Crucible
Crucible is the Shadows Over Westgate build/conversion/sync toolchain: one Go
module producing several small binaries plus a crucible dispatcher (D11). It is
the only repo that owns builder logic; the artifact repos (sow-module,
sow-topdata, sow-assets-manifest) invoke Crucible through wrapper scripts and
never embed a toolkit.
Repos produce artifacts. sow-platform deploys artifacts.
Crucible is how the artifact repos turn source into artifacts.

The dispatcher and the standalone shims share one registry
(internal/dispatch); the shims exist so consumer wrapper scripts can resolve a
single-token command. The full legacy nwn-tool command surface and where each
command lands is mapped in docs/command-surface.md.
Status (cutover performed)
The internal app/pipeline/project/erf/gff/topdata/changelog/
validator packages from gitea/sow-tools have been migrated into this tree, and
the module, topdata, hak, and wiki builders now delegate to the migrated
nwn-tool command surface (mapped in
docs/command-surface.md). config and changelog
are global commands on the dispatcher. depot has no migrated logic yet, so it
keeps the fail-closed path: exit 70, never a faked artifact.
See docs/migration-from-nwn-tool.md for what
was done and what remains (the consumer --manifest/--source/--out flag contract
is the open Phase-6 item).
Quick start (no Nix)
Teammates without Nix don't build anything — they run the bootstrap wrapper,
which downloads the latest released crucible for your OS and runs it:
./crucible # interactive menu (pick a command)
./crucible module build
./crucible topdata validate
Windows (PowerShell):
.\crucible.ps1 module build
The binary is cached under ~/.cache/crucible/<version>/ (%LOCALAPPDATA%\crucible
on Windows); --repo-local caches inside the repo instead. Private releases:
set CRUCIBLE_TOKEN or write the token to ~/.config/crucible/token.
Develop
Self-contained (D8) — a host with only Nix can run everything:
nix develop # Go + shellcheck + yamllint + make
make check # go vet + go test + shellcheck + yamllint
make build # build every cmd/* into ./bin (gitignored)
make smoke # build + assert the fail-closed contract
Binaries are never committed — they are CI artifacts (D19).
This retires the old habit of checking in nwn-tool / sow-toolkit.
CI
PR-first (D7): checks run once on pull requests; the only publish event is a
v* tag (see runbooks/ci-trigger-standard.md in sow-docs,
https://git.westgate.pw/ShadowsOverWestgate/sow-docs).
ci.yml— vet, test, shellcheck, yamllint, binary smoke, and cross-build all targets once per pull request.build-binaries.yml— on av*tag, cross-build and upload the binaries,SHA256SUMS, and the wrappers to the Gitea release.sync-wrappers.yml— on amainpush that toucheswrappers/, auto-PR the canonical wrappers to the consumer repos inwrappers/consumers.txt. Consumer drift checks run after those PRs merge tomain, not on the PRs themselves, to avoid recursive cross-repo checks.
Consumers
How the artifact repos resolve a Crucible binary is
documented in docs/consumer-contract.md.
