STS2 Compendium Patch QA
Overview
Run this as the focused regression pass for STS2 patch work that changes Compendium data or rich patch pages. It checks that patch prose, extracted game data, structured version history, and UI rendering agree with each other.
Always start by reading docs/I18N.md, then tailor the checks to the touched resource types.
Static Checks
- Identify the patch version and changed files from
git status --short, recent commits, and git diff --name-only.
- Re-read
docs/I18N.md and note whether the change touches service locale, game locale, rich patch prose, or game-origin text.
- Run:
pnpm i18n:validate
pnpm codex:validate
pnpm codex:validate-references
- Run
pnpm lint when TypeScript, React, CSS, scripts, generated data handling, or rich-rendering behavior changed.
- Run
pnpm tsc --noEmit or pnpm build when the work touched routes, metadata, server/client boundaries, shared data loading, or Compendium versioning code.
Data Integrity Checks
For every patch-touched resource:
- Confirm
data/sts2/meta.json matches the extracted game version expected for the patch.
- Confirm the resource exists in both
data/sts2/eng/** and data/sts2/kor/** when it must remain visible historically.
- Confirm
data/sts2-changes.json has a same-patch STS2Change record with entityType, entityId, summary, summaryKo, visible diffs, and complete fieldDiffs.
- Confirm monster behavior changes include concrete fields such as HP, damage/block values, moves, bestiary moves, initial powers, or encounter data instead of only prose.
- Confirm
visualDiff records, such as monster-pattern diffs, are backed by fieldDiffs.
- Confirm no manual
data/sts2-entity-versions.json edits or one-off component reconstruction were added.
- For changed art, confirm official and beta/placeholder assets are not collapsed into one file. Epoch official art must live in
public/images/sts2/epochs/; epoch beta/placeholder art must live in public/images/sts2/epochs-beta/, including restored pre-patch beta art when the current PCK no longer ships it.
Deprecated Resource Checks
For each resource that becomes deprecated in the patch:
- Both locale JSON files include
deprecated: true and deprecatedInPatch: "vX.Y.Z".
data/sts2-changes.json includes fieldDiffs for deprecated false to true and deprecatedInPatch null to the patch version.- The data loader still includes the resource for historical pages even if current game localization removed its title.
- Current/deprecated version rendering is muted: grayscale, desaturated, and opacity-reduced where the design uses that treatment.
- Versions from the resource's first appearance through the patch immediately before deprecation render the normal colored asset.
- Links remain valid from historical patch notes, patch-history rails, related-resource rails, detail pages, modals, and hover previews.
Check at least these surfaces when they exist for the resource type:
- Compendium index tile
- Resource detail page
- Resource modal
- Game hover tip or patch-note preview
- Main asset inside the detail/modal preview
- Patch-history rail
Patch Page Checks
Inspect the target patch route in the browser:
- Korean service route, such as
/patches/0.107.0.
- English service/game route, such as
/en/patches/0.107.0.
- Patch index route
/patches when patch metadata, representative art, status, or cache-busting data changed.
When locale cookies affect the route, set:
sts-service-locale=kosts-game-locale=kor
Verify:
- Rich keywords with type hints open the intended card, relic, potion, power, event, monster, encounter, or ancient.
- Ambiguous names do not link to the wrong resource. Monster move mentions should use the parent monster preview when the move is not a standalone power.
- Unknown gold terms render as styled text without broken modal links.
- Buff and nerf labels use the project text-effect contract: green+sine for buffs, red+jitter for nerfs.
- Deprecated resource previews match the patch/version context: grayscale from the deprecation patch onward, colored before it.
- Changed STS2 art URLs include the current
?v=vX.Y.Z cache-busting query parameter, either from StaticImage or cacheBustSts2ImageUrl().
For Compendium epoch art changes, also verify:
/compendium/epochs shows the normal official art by default.?beta=true or the beta-art toggle shows epochs-beta art when available./compendium/epochs/{id}?beta=true uses the beta-art asset in the detail hero and metadata path.- Newly official epoch art from the patch still has its old beta/placeholder art available when historical art existed.
Browser And Mobile Coverage
Use a local dev server when the changed route needs Next.js rendering. Prefer http://127.0.0.1:3000 and stop/restart it only as needed for clean type checks.
Run .codex/skills/mobile-viewport-qa/SKILL.md when patch pages, Compendium pages, modals, rails, hover surfaces, or responsive layout changed.
Run .codex/skills/animation-playback-qa/SKILL.md when monster pattern diffs, SpinePlayer, VFX, canvas, or replay behavior changed.
Reporting
Report:
- Commands run and whether they passed.
- Browser routes and version selections inspected.
- Resource IDs checked, especially deprecated IDs.
- Any skipped check with a concrete reason.
- Any fix made during QA, with its commit if the repository requires speculative commits.
