# Session 09: Validation And Documentation

**Session ID**: `phase24-session09-validation-and-documentation` **Package**: apps/web **Status**: Not Started **Estimated Tasks**: \~16 **Estimated Duration**: 2-4 hours

***

## Objective

Run the eight section 13A acceptance criteria as the phase exit, close the Fun Laws and privacy audits, and update the stable docs and game-design ledgers so Phase 24 is recorded before the window ends.

***

## Scope

### In Scope (MVP)

* Section 13A acceptance run with recorded evidence: glance, cause, kill-latency (<=5s spawn and clear, ram dies on `build_fix` arrival), silence (10 event-free minutes), honesty (replay/reconnect change no persisted numbers; kills require verification), fatigue (45-minute simulated stream: SFX budgets hold, combos merge, no strobe), reduced-motion parity for criteria 1-5, generated Phase 3 asset implementation evidence, and the Fun Law 1 inspect-through audit.
* Automated proxies where criteria are dogfood self-reports: simulated 45-minute event stream tests for fatigue, latency tests through the real event path for criterion 3.
* Fun Laws quick pass (section 9): no fake fire, no rewarded waste - written into the phase-exit audit.
* Full focused test run, web typecheck, root format check, workflow validation.
* Documentation: update `docs/game-design/14-implemented-phases.md` (design Phase 3 shipped as spec Phase 24) and `docs/game-design/15-phases-yet-to-be-implemented.md` (remove Phase 3, refresh grounding), the section 16 change log, stable battlefield/game docs, generated asset handoff references, and the master PRD progress.
* Phase-exit audit and implementation notes artifacts in the session spec directory, following the Phase 23 Session 08 pattern.

### Out of Scope

* New features, tuning beyond recorded constants, certification language, hosted or trusted-erasure claims.

***

## Prerequisites

* [ ] Sessions 05, 06, 07, and 08 complete (all phase surfaces and generated asset implementation references shipped).

***

## Deliverables

1. Phase-exit audit with all eight criteria and evidence.
2. Updated game-design ledgers, change log, stable docs, master PRD, and state tracking.
3. Generated asset implementation evidence for the Phase 3 live-enemy, strike-vocabulary, and reduced-motion sheets.
4. Passing focused tests, typecheck, and format gates.

***

## Success Criteria

* [ ] All eight section 13A criteria pass or have recorded, source-backed evidence.
* [ ] `docs/game-design/14` and `15` reflect Phase 24 completion in the same window.
* [ ] No overclaim: boundaries preserved in all updated docs.
* [ ] Focused tests, web typecheck, and format check pass.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://faction-os.gitbook.io/faction-os-docs/.spec_system/archive/phases/phase_24/session_09_validation_and_documentation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
