# Spigot Quest Board Knowledge Log

## 2026-09-05 — Initial quest-board design

- Administrators create physical quest boards, and every board exposes the same global quests and claims.
- Players create quests by selecting a requested block material and quantity and escrowing reward items from their inventory.
- Completing players deliver the requested block items at a board and immediately receive the escrowed reward.
- Delivered blocks remain held by the quest system until the issuer claims them at a board.
- Cancelled and seven-day-expired quests return escrowed rewards through the same claim system rather than direct inventory delivery.
- Inventory overflow from rewards or claims is dropped at the receiving player's feet.
- Player `/quests` commands are disabled by default so administrators can require physical-board interaction.
- The board interface follows Spigot Base by using Purpur's supported native dialog API.

## 2026-09-05 — Foundation started

- Approved work begins with an OKF knowledge bundle, Java 25/Purpur 26.2 Gradle foundation, automated verification, and a public Gitea repository.

## 2026-09-05 — Foundation completed

- Published the project to the public `dmg/spigot-quest-board` Gitea repository.
- Added strict Java 25/Purpur 26.2 Gradle builds, plugin metadata, a metadata regression test, and CI/release workflows modeled on Spigot Base.
- Verified the plugin foundation and JAR with `./gradlew clean check jar`.

## 2026-09-05 — Shared physical quest boards

- Added durable world-UUID and block-coordinate board registration through `/questadmin createboard`.
- Registered main-hand interactions open one shared native Purpur dialog while unregistered blocks remain untouched.
- Persistence publishes a board only after an atomic YAML save succeeds and rejects duplicate locations.
- Verified 11 tests and the plugin JAR with `./gradlew clean check jar`.

## 2026-09-05 — Quest creation and reward escrow

- Added board-dialog and `/quests create <block> <quantity>` creation using a valid block material, positive quantity, and the exact held reward stack.
- Escrow preserves full Bukkit item metadata in durable Base64-backed YAML and rolls inventory removal back if persistence fails.
- Quests receive UUID identifiers and UTC creation and seven-day expiration timestamps.
- Verified 26 tests and the plugin JAR with `./gradlew clean check jar`.
