+# M03-RND-WMO-RENDER-RESOURCE-CACHE-001 — WMO render resource cache state
+
+<!-- OPENWC_CLAIM:M03-RND-WMO-RENDER-RESOURCE-CACHE-001:sindo-main-codex:2026-07-20 -->
+
+## Ownership
+
+- Target: M03
+- Program: RND
+- Owner/Agent ID: sindo-main-codex
+- Branch: `work/sindo-main-codex/m03-wmo-render-resource-cache`
+- Lease expires UTC: 2026-07-20
+- Integrator: M03 milestone integrator
+
+## Outcome
+
+Extract lightweight-WMO render Resource cache, negative cache and asynchronous
+request bookkeeping from the loader while preserving loader-owned I/O and
+cache-format validation.
+
+## Non-goals
+
+- Call `ResourceLoader`, construct cache paths or inspect files.
+- Validate `WMOStreamingResource` script identity or format version.
+- Own cached WMO scenes, live prototypes, placement/build jobs or Nodes/RIDs.
+- Change fallback order, retry behavior, quality profiles or visual output.
+- Claim asset-backed WMO fidelity, leak acceptance or traversal p95/p99.
+
+## Paths
+
+- Exclusive: `src/render/wmo/wmo_render_resource_cache_state.gd`,
+  `src/tools/verify_wmo_render_resource_cache_state.gd`,
+  `docs/modules/wmo-render-resource-cache-state.md`, this claim
+- Shared/hotspots: `src/scenes/streaming/streaming_world_loader.gd`,
+  `src/tools/verify_render_runtime_cache_shutdown.gd`,
+  `docs/modules/wmo-render-build-queue.md`, `docs/modules/world-renderer.md`,
+  `docs/modules/README.md`, `RENDER.md`, `targets/03-renderer-facade.md`
+- Generated/ignored: `.godot`, native DLL, generated ADT/WMO resources, caches
+  and proprietary renderer corpus
+
+## Contracts and data
+
+- State keys are loader-normalized relative WMO paths copied as `String`.
+- Cached values are already validated `Resource` references.
+- Pending values are cache paths for loader-owned `ResourceLoader` requests.
+- Terminal request removal precedes validated-resource or missing-state adoption.
+- Request/missing reset preserves accepted resources; full clear releases all.
+- Cache/schema/coordinate/profile versions and validation rules remain unchanged.
+
+## Dependencies
+
+- Requires: current master `c954704`, accepted WMO render build queue
+- Blocks: further WMO cached-scene/load and materialization decomposition
+- External state: none; verification uses synthetic Resources and paths
+
+## Verification
+
+- Commands: dedicated lifecycle/request/cache/reset/diagnostics/source/timing
+  verifier; WMO queue/planner/registry/resolver/material/shutdown plus adjacent
+  renderer/streaming/coordinate/documentation/coordination gates
+- Fixtures: synthetic Resource instances and normalized relative/cache paths
+- Fidelity evidence: exact current cache/missing/request transitions preserved
+- Performance budget: 100 cycles over 256 resource/request keys under 1 second
+
+## Documentation deliverables
+
+- Inline public API docs
+- Module specification with inputs/outputs, ownership and source map
+- Data-flow, lifecycle/state and loader interaction sequence diagrams
+- World-renderer, module registry, WMO queue and RENDER status updates
+
+## Simplicity and naming
+
+- Important names introduced: `WmoRenderResourceCacheState`
+- Simplest considered solution: one RefCounted around three Dictionaries
+- Rejected complexity/abstractions: generic cache, callbacks, signals, mutexes,
+  ResourceLoader wrapper, persistence layer or shared WMO/M2 cache hierarchy
+- Unavoidable complexity and justification: partial reset must retain validated
+  Resources while discarding pending/negative state at map reset and shutdown
+- Measured optimization evidence: bounded synthetic store/request/reset loop
+
+## Status
+
+- State: accepted
+- Done: state holder implemented; loader cache/request/reset/metrics adapters
+  migrated; shutdown regression and required documentation updated
+- Next: cached WMO scene/load state or liquid service extraction
+- Blocked by:
+
+<!-- OPENWC_INTEGRATION:ACCEPTED:M03-RND-WMO-RENDER-RESOURCE-CACHE-001:b4955d6 -->
+
+## Handoff
+
+- Commit: `d39f591`
+- Results: cache-state PASS (`cases=10`, `iterations=100`,
+  `elapsed_ms=58.727`); direct no-`.godot` cache-state run PASS (`45.361ms`);
+  WMO queue/planner/registry/resolver/material/shutdown plus 18 adjacent
+  M2/terrain/facade/scheduler/streaming/coordinate regressions PASS;
+  documentation and coordination gates PASS; checkpoint dry-run PASS `7/7`.
+- Remaining risks: accepted Resources remain strongly referenced until full
+  shutdown release; cached-scene and ResourceLoader I/O seams remain in loader;
+  no proprietary corrupt-cache fixture, asset-backed WMO traversal/leak run,
+  p95/p99 or original-client paired evidence. Full loader cannot be used as a
+  direct empty-class-cache smoke because pre-existing typed global coordinate/
+  focus dependencies require editor class registration; the extracted service
+  itself passed cold and normal editor parse passed.
+- Documentation updated: inline public API; new
+  `docs/modules/wmo-render-resource-cache-state.md`; module registry, WMO queue,
+  world renderer and `RENDER.md`; data-flow/state/sequence diagrams, ownership,
+  threading, cache-version boundary, failure/recovery and source map included.
+- Integration: merged as `b4955d6`; post-merge cache state (`cases=10`,
+  `iterations=100`, `elapsed_ms=51.949`), shutdown, WMO queue/resolver, facade,
+  internal-access (`private_symbols=41`), `7/7` manifest, documentation and
+  coordination gates passed.

+# WMO Render Resource Cache State
+
+## Metadata
+
+| Field | Value |
+|---|---|
+| Status | Implemented |
+| Target/work package | M03 / `M03-RND-WMO-RENDER-RESOURCE-CACHE-001` |
+| Owners | Validated lightweight-WMO render Resources, negative cache and pending request paths |
+| Last verified | Worktree `work/sindo-main-codex/m03-wmo-render-resource-cache`, 2026-07-17 |
+| Profiles/capabilities | Lightweight WMO render-cache path; profile-independent |
+
+## Purpose
+
+Own the mutually exclusive cached, missing and pending states for normalized
+lightweight-WMO render paths outside the monolithic streamer. The state holder
+accepts only caller-validated `Resource` references and records cache paths for
+threaded requests whose I/O lifecycle remains in `StreamingWorldLoader`.
+
+## Non-goals
+
+- Normalize WMO paths or construct `.res` cache paths.
+- Call `ResourceLoader`, inspect files or validate script/format versions.
+- Own WMO cached scenes, live prototypes, placements, build jobs or engine Nodes.
+- Change fallback order, retry timing, quality profiles or visible output.
+- Persist, migrate or build WMO caches.
+
+## Context and boundaries
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart LR
+    Placement[Normalized WMO render lookup] --> Loader[StreamingWorldLoader]
+    Loader --> State[WmoRenderResourceCacheState]
+    State -->|cached Resource| Loader
+    Loader -->|cache path| ResourceLoader[Godot ResourceLoader]
+    ResourceLoader -->|status and loaded Resource| Loader
+    Loader --> Validate[Script and FORMAT_VERSION validation]
+    Validate -->|accepted Resource or missing| State
+    Loader --> Fallback[Cached scene or live-prototype fallback]
+```
+
+The module may retain validated `Resource` references and copied path Strings.
+It has no FileAccess, ResourceLoader, Node, RID, worker, mutex, gameplay, network
+or editor dependency. Cache validation stays at the I/O boundary in the loader.
+

+    Cached -->|yes| Return[Return validated Resource]
+    Cached -->|no| Blocked{Missing or pending?}

+    Validate -->|valid| Adopt[complete with Resource]
+    Validate -->|invalid| Missing
+```
+
+## Lifecycle/state
+
+Each normalized path is `Absent`, `Pending`, `Cached` or `Missing`. Valid request
+completion leaves exactly one terminal state. Transient clear moves `Pending` and
+`Missing` to `Absent` but retains `Cached`; full clear moves every state to
+`Absent` and releases retained Resources.
+
+```mermaid
+stateDiagram-v2
+    [*] --> Absent
+    Absent --> Pending: remember valid request
+    Pending --> Cached: validated Resource completion
+    Pending --> Missing: load/validation failure
+    Pending --> Absent: clear transient/full
+    Missing --> Absent: clear transient/full
+    Cached --> Absent: full clear

+```
+
+## Ownership, threading and resources
+
+- The state owns three Dictionaries and strong references to accepted Resources.
+- The loader owns normalization, cache paths, ResourceLoader calls and validation.
+- All mutation is serialized by the renderer main-thread lookup/drain lifecycle.
+- No mutex or callback is needed; detached request snapshots permit safe removal.
+- The loader/build queue borrow Resources without transferring ownership.
+
+## Errors, cancellation and recovery
+
+| Failure/state | Detection | Behavior | Diagnostic | Recovery |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| Empty path/cache path | Request guard | Reject unchanged | Contract verifier | Repair caller input |
+| Duplicate or occupied path | State membership | Reject request unchanged | Contract/source verifier | Await terminal/reset |
+| Threaded load failed | Loader status | Complete as missing | Existing renderer metrics | Transient reset permits retry |
+| Wrong script/old format | Loader validation | Complete as missing | Cache-version source gate | Rebuild cache, then reset |
+| Shutdown while pending | Loader drains ResourceLoader snapshot | Clear transient afterward | Shutdown verifier | Next runtime starts absent |
+| Final cache release | Loader shutdown lifecycle | Full clear releases Resources | Shutdown verifier | Recreated with loader |
+
+## Configuration and capabilities
+
+The module adds no setting or profile branch. `wmo_render_cache_dir`, resource
+format version, request scheduling and WMO build budgets remain loader-owned.
+
+## Persistence, cache and migration
+
+The state is runtime-only and serializes nothing. `WMOStreamingResource` script
+identity and `FORMAT_VERSION` validation remain unchanged in the loader; no cache
+migration or rebuild is introduced by this extraction.
+
+## Diagnostics and observability
+
+`pending_request_count` preserves the existing `wmobuild` metric contribution.
+Diagnostics expose only sorted normalized-path keys for cached/missing/pending
+states; Resource references and cache file paths are not exposed. No logs emit.
+
+## Verification
+
+- `verify_wmo_render_resource_cache_state.gd`: invalid input, detached requests,
+  successful/missing terminal transitions, exclusivity, partial/full reset,
+  sorted diagnostics, ownership/source boundary and bounded timing.
+- `verify_render_runtime_cache_shutdown.gd`: full release of accepted Resources
+  and negative state through the loader lifecycle.
+- WMO queue/planner/registry/resolver and surrounding renderer regressions verify
+  unchanged fallback/build behavior. This package makes no visual parity claim.
+
+## Extension points
+
+- Cached WMO scene request state can use a separate typed module because its
+  size limit, PackedScene validation and missing-file behavior differ.
+- A later loader I/O adapter may consume the detached request snapshot while
+  preserving this state contract and cache-version boundary.
+
+## Capability status
+
+| Capability | Status | Evidence | Gap/next step |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Lightweight WMO render Resource state | Implemented extraction | Lifecycle/source/timing and shutdown verifiers | Asset-backed traversal/leak evidence pending |
+| Cache script/version validation | Preserved in loader | Source boundary and WMO regressions | Dedicated corrupt-cache fixture could follow |
+| Cached WMO scene state | Partial/loader-owned | Existing runtime behavior | Separate extraction |
+| WMO materialization | Partial/loader-owned | Queue/planner regressions | Further safe extraction |
+
+## Known gaps and risks
+
+- Strong Resource references live until final cache release, matching prior state.
+- Missing cache files remain unrecorded for render Resources, so lookup can retry;
+  this intentionally differs from the cached-scene path.
+- No proprietary WMO corpus, corrupt-version fixture, leak run, traversal p95/p99
+  or paired original-client capture is included.
