+- Implemented authenticated random, growth, and diminution potions with approved recipes and durable UUID-keyed player scale.
+- Added validated stature and launcher configuration with safe clamping to Minecraft's scale range.
+- Implemented cooldown-protected hopper-to-dispenser launch tubes for tiny players with six-axis launch support and empty-exit checks.
+- Added the Java 25 Purpur build, automated tests, Gitea CI and semantic-release workflows, README, and project-specific agent guidance.
+- Verified the implementation with `./gradlew clean check jar` and created the public `dmg/spigot-heights` Gitea repository.

 ## Acceptance criteria
 
-- [ ] Gradle compiles against Purpur API `26.2.build.2618-stable` using Java 25.
-- [ ] Compiler lint warnings fail the build and JUnit 5 tests run during `check`.
-- [ ] Gitea Actions verifies pushes and pull requests and stores a development JAR.
-- [ ] Pull requests validate conventional commits.
-- [ ] Main-branch conventional commits drive semantic releases and attach versioned JARs to Gitea releases.
-- [ ] The README documents requirements, recipes, configuration, building, and releases.
-- [ ] `./gradlew clean check jar` succeeds.
