Two-pronged response to user-confirmed "bot stands still, doesn't actually
chop" on play.xmatic.team:
1. Pin protocol — .env now sets MC_VERSION=1.21.4. minecraft-data has
wrong packet ID mappings for protocol 775 (server 26.1.2 via
ViaBackwards 5.9.1) — see mineflayer#3888 and #3717. 1.21.5 also has
an enchants decoder bug that breaks bot.dig. 1.21.4 is the last
protocol mineflayer 4.37.1 can speak cleanly through VIA.
2. Don't trust dig success — runtime/actions.js chopNearestTree and
runtime/skills/gather-stone.js now lookAt(face center)+forceLook,
await collectBlock, then re-read the target block. If the log/stone
is STILL there, return ok:false code:"silent_dig_failure" and
blacklist the position. Prevents the curriculum from reporting
"wood.16 in progress" while the world hasn't actually changed.
3. Defensive default — runtime/movement-profiles.js: canDig=false on
every profile until dig is confirmed working live. Otherwise
pathfinder schedules paths through must-dig blocks and the bot loops.
4. Ground-truth probe — runtime/skills/diagnose-physics.js dispatches
forward/jump/dig probes and writes the result to the diary. New
IPC command cmd:run-skill lets the operator (or a future curriculum
trigger) fire any skill on demand; it waits for the current action
to finish before dispatching. /tmp/pepa-runskill.mjs is a one-shot
client.
Live probe on play.xmatic.team confirmed: forward Δ=0.003 over 2s
(BROKEN — server rejects movement packets), jump ΔY=0.42 (likely
physics jitter, not a real jump). Strongly suggests an anti-cheat
plugin gating bot-style movements server-side — beyond protocol pin.
npm test 124/124.

Phase 7 of plans/autonomous-survival-bot-prd.md. Five small modules
that close the recurring "shared state" and "version-pinned list"
failure modes the PRD flags in §7 and §5.4.
New:
- runtime/movement-profiles.js: named profiles (GATHER, TRAVEL, FLEE,
BUILD, RETURN_TO_BASE) as pure descriptors via PROFILE_DEFAULTS,
plus applyProfile(profile, bot) that hands a fresh Movements to
pathfinder. Avoids the "flee left canDig=false on the shared
Movements, next chop got stuck in canopy" regression.
- runtime/owned-blocks.js: JSONL ledger of blocks this bot placed/
removed (state/<host>/owned-blocks.jsonl); isOwned({x,y,z}) for
O(1) lookups; ensureDir() makes the parent dir lazily.
- runtime/claim-avoidance.js: classifyArea({blocks, isOwned}) returns
player_build / natural_or_owned / insufficient_data based on
man-made block density vs ownership ratio; shouldAvoid(area) helper.
Designed for gather/place skills to call before touching contested
area.
- runtime/skills/compat.test.js: runs runtime/skills/groups.js against
real minecraft-data registries for 1.18.2, 1.20.4, 1.21.5; spot-
checks that pale_oak_log only appears on 1.21+ etc.
- runtime/compat.test.js: 10 tests covering movement descriptors,
isManMadeBlockName, classifyArea, owned-blocks markPlaced/dedup/
isOwned/markRemoved.
npm test now 79/79.
