+## 2026-07-16 Terrain Quality Mesh Cache Extraction
+
+- `TerrainQualityMeshCache` now owns full-quality terrain revisit Mesh references,
+  tile-key LRU order and source admission outside `StreamingWorldLoader`.
+- The historical rules are unchanged: successful restore touches newest; store
+  trims oldest to `terrain_quality_mesh_cache_limit`; zero/negative capacity keeps
+  no entries; control-splat/splat sources are never retained in this revisit cache.
+- The loader keeps three narrow adapters: restore into tile state, store after a
+  full-quality result and clear during existing world reset/shutdown.
+- ADT parsing, quality tasks/results, tile state, cache format versions, material/
+  Node/RID finalization, budgets and visible terrain behavior remain loader-owned.
+
 ## Practical Rule For Future Work
 
 If something improves quality but creates visible hitch, it is not done. Move it to bake/cache/background work, split finalization over frames, or prewarm it before the player can see it.

+# M03-RND-TERRAIN-CACHE-SERVICE-001 — Terrain quality mesh cache service
+
+<!-- OPENWC_CLAIM:M03-RND-TERRAIN-CACHE-SERVICE-001:sindo-main-codex:2026-07-18 -->
+
+## Ownership
+
+- Target: M03
+- Program: RND
+- Owner/Agent ID: sindo-main-codex
+- Branch: `work/sindo-main-codex/m03-terrain-quality-cache`
+- Lease expires UTC: 2026-07-18
+- Integrator: M03 milestone integrator
+
+## Outcome
+
+Extract the full-quality terrain revisit Mesh cache, its LRU ownership and
+source-admission rules from `StreamingWorldLoader` into a small scene-free
+`TerrainQualityMeshCache`, preserving all call sites and observable behavior.
+
+## Non-goals
+
+- Move ADT parsing, tile state, quality-upgrade tasks/results or SceneTree/RID finalization.
+- Change cache capacity defaults, quality profiles, source priority or cache formats.
+- Cache control-splat/splat meshes that the current loader deliberately rejects.
+- Extract chunk LOD, terrain material building, ground query or other asset services.
+- Add dependencies, persistence, background work or mark the terrain service complete.
+
+## Paths
+
+- Exclusive: `src/render/terrain/terrain_quality_mesh_cache.gd`,
+  `src/tools/verify_terrain_quality_mesh_cache.gd`,
+  `docs/modules/terrain-quality-mesh-cache.md`, this claim
+- Shared/hotspots: `src/scenes/streaming/streaming_world_loader.gd`,
+  `src/tools/verify_render_runtime_cache_shutdown.gd`,
+  `docs/modules/world-renderer.md`, `docs/modules/README.md`, `RENDER.md`,
+  `targets/03-renderer-facade.md`
+- Generated/ignored: `.godot`, native DLL, generated resources, caches and
+  proprietary renderer corpus
+
+## Contracts and data
+
+- Public service API: `store`, `restore`, `clear`, detached `diagnostic_snapshot`
+- Entry: tile key, retained Mesh reference and source string
+- Admission: non-empty key, non-null Mesh, source other than
+  `control_splat_cache`, `splat_cache` or `splat`
+- LRU: successful restore touches newest; store touches then trims oldest to
+  `max(0, capacity)`; invalid restored records are removed
+- Persistence/cache format: none; session-memory ownership only
+
+## Dependencies
+
+- Requires: integrated facade contracts master `61bad09`
+- Blocks: later terrain service extraction and cache/finalization acceptance audit
+- External state: none; tests use synthetic ArrayMesh references
+
+## Verification
+
+- Commands: dedicated cache contract/LRU/ownership regression; streamer source
+  boundary; shutdown/facade/internal-access/manifest/planner/scheduler and repository gates
+- Fixtures: admission/rejection, replacement, LRU touch/eviction, zero/negative
+  capacity, invalid record cleanup, clear and detached diagnostics
+- Fidelity evidence: same sources/capacity/call sites; all seven baseline plans unchanged
+- Performance budget: dictionary lookup plus bounded single-entry LRU operations;
+  no Node, task, file, cache serialization or RID creation
+
+## Documentation deliverables
+
+- Inline public API docs: store/restore/clear/diagnostics and ownership
+- Module specification: new terrain quality mesh cache specification
+- Data-flow diagram: upgrade result through cache to revisit state
+- Sequence/state/dependency diagrams: store/restore/evict/reset and failure paths
+- Source map/status updates: module registry, world renderer and `RENDER.md`
+
+## Simplicity and naming
+
+- Important names introduced: `TerrainQualityMeshCache`
+- Simplest considered solution: one RefCounted with dictionary plus ordered tile-key array
+- Rejected complexity/abstractions: generic cache framework, weak references,
+  callbacks, Resource cache integration, background eviction or persistence
+- Unavoidable complexity and justification: Mesh references must survive unloaded
+  tile state while LRU keeps revisit memory bounded
+- Measured optimization evidence: exact ownership extraction, no optimization claim
+
+## Status
+
+- State: ready-for-review
+- Done: scene-free cache ownership/LRU extraction, loader adapter migration,
+  contract regression and module documentation
+- Next: M03 integrator reviews and merges `97480e0`
+- Blocked by:
+
+<!-- OPENWC_HANDOFF:READY:M03-RND-TERRAIN-CACHE-SERVICE-001:97480e0 -->
+<!-- OPENWC_INTEGRATION:ACCEPTED:M03-RND-TERRAIN-CACHE-SERVICE-001:630a0c1 -->
+
+## Handoff
+
+- Commit: `97480e0`
+- Results: `TerrainQualityMeshCache` now owns retained full-quality Mesh
+  references, source admission and oldest-to-newest LRU. The loader retains only
+  restore-to-state, store-after-upgrade and clear lifecycle adapters.
+- Verification: cache `contract_cases=15 loader_calls=3`; facade/entity/ground/
+  terrain regressions; internal access `private_symbols=42 gameplay=7
+  editor_sources=9 renderer_tools=1`; manifest `7/7`; shutdown; scheduler
+  `20000` iterations; planner `250` iterations; focus; editor parse; dry-run;
+  coordination, documentation and diff gates passed.
+- Fidelity: `baked_full` revisit retention, three excluded splat sources, LRU
+  touch/trim, profile capacities and all call sites remain unchanged. All seven
+  checkpoint plans remain valid. No visible or build-12340 parity claim is added.
+- External/local inputs: ignored native DLL and generated ADT scripts supported
+  parse/dry-run only; missing proprietary ADT/DBC/character data produced expected diagnostics.
+- Remaining risks: entry count does not measure Mesh bytes; ordered-array touch
+  remains linear; asset-backed revisit flash, memory and p95/p99 evidence remain pending;
+  terrain build/tasks/state/finalization are still monolithic.
+- Documentation updated: new terrain cache API/input-output/data-flow/lifecycle/
+  sequence/ownership/failure/configuration/migration/diagnostic/source-map spec;
+  world renderer, registry and `RENDER.md` updated.
+- Integration: accepted in master merge `630a0c1`; post-merge cache, facade,
+  internal-access, manifest, shutdown, scheduler and planner gates passed.

+|---|---|
+| Status | Implemented extraction |
+| Target/work package | M03 / `M03-RND-TERRAIN-CACHE-SERVICE-001` |

+| Last verified | Worktree `work/sindo-main-codex/m03-terrain-quality-cache`, 2026-07-16 |
+| Profiles/capabilities | Performance/Balanced/High/Custom capacity; session-memory only |
+
+## Purpose
+
+Retain eligible full-quality terrain Mesh references after ADT tile state unload,
+so a revisit can restore quality without flashing to a lower-quality fallback,
+while bounding retained references with the existing least-recently-used policy.
+
+## Non-goals
+
+- Parse/build terrain, own tile state or schedule quality-upgrade tasks.
+- Create/finalize Nodes or RIDs, mutate materials or choose terrain LOD.
+- Persist cache entries or change baked/control-splat/splat format versions.
+- Cache control-splat/splat sources whose active radius has separate ownership.
+- Provide a generic cache framework or change profile capacity defaults.

+| Symbol | Kind | Purpose | Thread/lifetime | Errors |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `TerrainQualityMeshCache.store(tile_key, mesh, source, capacity)` | Command | Admit/touch a Mesh and trim oldest entries | Owning renderer thread/session | Returns false for rejected input or immediate zero-capacity eviction |

+```
+
+## Ownership, threading and resources
+
+- The cache owns its dictionary, ordered tile keys and retained Mesh references.
+- The loader retains tile state, async tasks/results, quality selection and all
+  Node/RID/material finalization.
+- Returned records are new dictionaries; their Mesh is a shared reference.
+- Calls currently occur on the main renderer thread. The service has no lock and
+  must not be mutated concurrently.
+- `clear` deterministically drops references during the existing world reset path.
+
+## Errors, cancellation and recovery
+
+| Failure | Detection | Behavior | Diagnostic | Recovery |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| Empty key/null Mesh | Store guard | Reject unchanged | Boolean/test | Fix caller result |
+| Splat/control source | Admission list | Reject unchanged | Boolean/test | Keep source in active-radius ownership |
+| Zero/negative capacity | Clamp and trim | Entry immediately evicted; cache empty | Snapshot/count | Increase profile capacity |
+| Miss/invalid entry | Restore validation | Remove invalid and return empty | Empty record | Existing loader fallback/rebuild |
+| World reset/shutdown | Loader lifecycle | Clear every reference/key | Shutdown regression | Refill during next session |
+
+There is no asynchronous work or cancellation token inside this service.
+
+## Configuration and capabilities
+
+| Setting/capability | Default | Profile | Runtime mutable | Effect |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `terrain_quality_mesh_cache_limit` | Existing loader value | `0/24/48` in current presets | Read on every store | Maximum retained entries |
+| Admitted source | Non-splat (currently `baked_full`) | All | No hidden override | Revisit retention |
+| Excluded sources | `control_splat_cache`, `splat_cache`, `splat` | All | No | Preserve active quality ownership |
+
+## Persistence, cache and migration
+
+- This is an in-memory reference cache, not a serialized cache format.
+- `REQUIRED_BAKED_TILE_FORMAT_VERSION=5`, control splat v3 and splat v1 remain
+  loader/resource validation contracts and are unchanged.
+- No migration or rebuild is required. Entry keys retain the existing tile-key form.
+
+## Diagnostics and observability
+
+- Detached diagnostics report count and oldest-to-newest tile key/source entries.
+- Mesh, material, Node and RID references are deliberately absent.
+- Performance is bounded dictionary lookup plus one ordered-array erase/append;
+  no new optimization or scale claim is made.
+
+## Verification
+
+- `verify_terrain_quality_mesh_cache.gd`: admission, exclusions, Mesh identity,
+  source, LRU touch/eviction, detached diagnostics, negative capacity and clear.
+- Loader source boundary proves cache composition/delegation and removal of its
+  former LRU array/touch/trim implementation.
+- Existing shutdown, facade, internal-access, manifest, planner and scheduler
+  regressions remain required.
+- Fidelity: source rules, capacities and three loader adapter sites are unchanged;
+  no visible terrain or build-12340 parity change is claimed.
+
+## Extension points
+
+- Expose scalar cache counts through facade metrics when needed.
+- Move additional terrain responsibilities only as separate bounded services.
+- Replace ordered-array LRU only after measured scale evidence.
+
+## Capability status
+
+| Capability | Status | Evidence | Gap/next step |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Bounded quality Mesh retention | Implemented extraction | Contract/LRU fixtures | Asset-backed memory/revisit timing pending |
+| Deterministic reset ownership | Implemented | Clear path plus shutdown regression | Full terrain service still monolithic |
+| Persistent terrain cache formats | Unchanged | Loader version constants | Separate acceptance audit remains |
+
+## Known gaps and risks
+
+- Ordered-array touch is linear in entry count, matching prior behavior.
+- Mesh memory size is not measured; capacity remains entry-count based.
+- Only revisit Mesh ownership moved; build/tasks/state/finalization remain loader-owned.
+- Asset-backed flash/revisit timing and p95/p99 evidence remain pending.
