fix(engine): resolve a token image ref when every matching preset agrees (#7552)

[cuinhellcat]

Fixes #7552.

A Role token created by a source card the catalog does not list resolved no token_image_ref — the preset scan's source gate turned "unknown source" into a silent None, and the client's name-search fallback then pulses forever ("Wicked Role" is the engine name; every printing is titled by the bare face — CR 111.10 / role_normalized_display_name). Reproduced live on the local build and on phase-rs.dev.

The fix

The catalog-wide tail now shares one reduction with the related-ids path: semantically_unique_ref — when every remaining candidate is semantically identical, the pick is presentation-only and the first is taken deterministically. Applied twice:

• Source-gated matches no longer die on the two-flip-sheet duplicate every Role has.
• A source no preset lists falls back to a body-only match iff ALL body-matching presets agree. Bodies with semantically DIFFERENT presets still resolve nothing — the ambiguity protection is preserved (by shape; no real catalog body exercises it end to end, stated in the test doc).

Evidence

Row	Pre-fix
a_role_from_an_unlisted_source_still_carries_its_catalog_image_ref	red (token_image_ref: None)
a_role_from_a_listed_source_resolves_its_image_ref	green (guards over-suppression)

Counter-probe: with the body-only fallback removed, ONLY the unlisted row fails. Token suites (311 integration + 146 + 11 lib) unchanged. cr-check verified CR 111.10.

Stated remainder

The second face of a Role flip sheet (Cursed on "Wicked // Cursed") resolves the shared image unrotated — face-aware rotation for flip-layout token printings is a separate display gap, noted in #7552.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Token image reference resolution now supports semantically identical body matches when source gating finds no match. Integration tests cover listed, unlisted, and ambiguous Role token sources.

Changes

Role token image references

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Semantic token preset resolution crates/engine/src/game/token_presets.rs	Resolution collects body-matching presets, applies source identity and name gates when available, and returns a deterministic reference only for semantically equivalent candidates.
Role resolution integration coverage crates/engine/tests/integration/issue_7552_role_token_image_ref.rs, crates/engine/tests/integration/main.rs	Integration tests verify listed and unlisted Role sources, reject ambiguous Goblin body matches, verify distinct source presets, and register the test module.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 23842

The PR adds deterministic token image resolution for matching presets, addressing the reported missing-image behavior while preserving ambiguity protection. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains beyond normal checks and review.

Reviewed current head 9f4cbb771e093d3461e4f9afb9e8ad50f991034b.

token_presets.rs now falls back from source-gated candidates to body-only candidates, so the fallback is correct only when it preserves the resolver's semantic-uniqueness contract. The new integration coverage proves the two positive cases (an unlisted Role with semantically identical candidates resolves, and a listed source continues to resolve), but it explicitly does not prove the opposing case. A first-candidate implementation would satisfy both current tests while silently choosing art for two body-equal presets whose semantics disagree.

Please add a production resolver/candidate-selection regression that constructs or reaches two body-matching candidates with different semantics and proves this fallback returns None. Include a paired reach guard showing the test actually enters the body-only fallback with both candidates, rather than passing through the source-linked path or a fixture short-circuit. That is the guard which makes the new ambiguity behavior reviewable.

[cuinhellcat]

Done in 23842751a — the guard is now proven end to end.

The review's premise was right, and the previous commit's "no real catalog body exercises it" note was wrong: the catalog carries same-body twins with different semantics. A bare 1/1 red Goblin body matches the plain Goblin preset, Goblin Spymaster's "Creatures you control attack each combat if able." token AND Hold the Perimeter's "This token can't block." token (Treasure, Clue and Pest hold further pairs).

New rows in issue_7552_role_token_image_ref.rs:

• Ambiguity: an unlisted source creating the bare Goblin body resolves no image ref — the body-only fallback refuses to pick between disagreeing candidates.
• Reach guard (both candidates): the SAME body resolves two distinct presets from their listed sources — Krenko's Command → plain, Goblin Spymaster → the must-attack variant, asserted via differing preset_ids. So the None above cannot mean "no body-matching candidate": at least two candidates pass token_body_matches for this body. The source-linked and related-ids paths are excluded for the negative row — the fabricated source has no oracle id and its name appears in no source_card_names — so the only production route to that None is the body-only fallback's disagreement branch.

Counter-probe: with semantically_unique_ref replaced by an unconditional first pick, ONLY the new unlisted-source row fails; every existing row stays green — exactly the silent-first-pick implementation the review described, now pinned red.

Hold — current-head parse-diff evidence is missing.

I manually re-reviewed current head 23842751aa168dfdecf3b4515b3c766d90ad50bb; the prior requested test evidence is resolved. This engine-source PR's only <!-- coverage-parse-diff --> sticky currently identifies the previous head 9f4cbb771e093d3461e4f9afb9e8ad50f991034b, so the required SHA-bound card-parse evidence is not yet available for the current head.

This is not an approval or enqueue. Current Rust test shards and the Tauri check are also still in progress. Once CI and current-head review feedback settle and the sticky is regenerated for 23842751aa168dfdecf3b4515b3c766d90ad50bb, I will recheck the evidence and resume the approval decision.

[matthewevans]

Hold — external Tauri CI cancellation on current head.

Current head 23842751aa168dfdecf3b4515b3c766d90ad50bb now has its SHA-bound <!-- coverage-parse-diff --> evidence (No card-parse changes detected), and the prior requested regression evidence is resolved. The Rust lint/test shards, card-data, WASM, frontend, and lobby checks succeeded.

The remaining required aggregate is red solely because Tauri compile check + tests was cancelled while sudo apt-get update was still running; its log ends with The operation was canceled before the project Tauri compile/test commands ran. This is an external CI condition, not a source finding.

This is not an approval or enqueue. Please obtain a successful rerun for this current head; after that and any current-head review feedback settle, I will resume the implementation review and approval decision.

[cuinhellcat]

Re-triggering CI per the hold: the required aggregate is red only because "Tauri compile check + tests" was cancelled during sudo apt-get update (external, before any project command ran). Close/reopen for a fresh run on head 2384275.

[matthewevans]

Approved on current head 23842751aa168dfdecf3b4515b3c766d90ad50bb.

The production ambiguity regression now reaches multiple same-body, semantically distinct presets and proves the unlisted-source path preserves None; the paired listed-source cases prove both candidates are reachable. The current-head parse-diff reports no card-parse changes, CodeRabbit's finding is resolved, and the fresh CI rerun is green.
