Three callers (main_window_shell.gd, narrate_harness.gd, npc_harness.gd)
still built LogPlayer with the OLD 3-arg shape (name, class_id,
luck_descriptor) after LogPlayer.new() was migrated to the 4-arg
(name, race_id, calling_id, luck_descriptor) shape. This was invisible
to both grep and the test suite: every ctor param carries a default, so
GDScript compiles a 3-arg call against a 4-arg signature without error —
it just silently mis-binds positionally. "sellsword" landed in the
race_id slot (rejected — not a race), the luck descriptor landed in the
calling_id slot (rejected — not a calling), and luck_descriptor itself
fell back to its default "". Every field in the emitted dict came out
empty, which 422s against the canon-log schema's minLength/enum
constraints. Grepping for class_id can't see this, because there is no
class_id token left anywhere — the bug is purely positional.
Also fixes prompts.py's _article(""), which returned "an" because
Python's "" in "aeiou" is True, producing a doubled-space/wrong-article
digest line when race_id is empty. _describe_player now builds its
descriptor from whichever of race/calling are present and omits the
clause entirely when both are absent.
Adds a schema-parity guard for origin.schema.json's inlined
allowed_callings enum, which duplicated the calling roster with no
runtime check tying it to Callings.IDS. Renames leftover "class"
vocabulary in test names/comments to "calling".
Regression coverage:
- client/tests/unit/test_entities.gd: ctor populates both race_id and
calling_id; a calling passed into the race_id slot (the exact shape
of the three broken call sites) yields an all-empty row.
- api/tests/test_prompts.py: empty-race and empty-race-and-calling
digest rendering, asserting no doubled space and no dangling article.
- client/tests/unit/test_schema_parity.gd: origin.schema.json's
allowed_callings enum matches Callings.IDS.

class_id is the rulebook's word; the world has callings — that was the whole §17
reconcile. The contract the Narrator reads should say what the world says. There
are no saves (M9) and no deployed clients, so this is as cheap as it will ever be
and strictly more expensive every milestone after.
race_id reaches the log because the AI must be able to describe the player:
api/app/prompts.py rendered 'a sellsword' and now renders 'a beastfolk cutpurse'.
It humanizes the id (the model must never read 'hedge_mage') and picks the right
article ('an elf', not 'a elf').
LogPlayer's hardcoded CLASSES const is deleted — the roster is Callings.IDS. A
parity test reads the JSON Schema from the client and asserts its enum equals the
code, so the two sides of the HTTP boundary cannot drift.
The deserter allowed three callings that no longer exist. He now allows all seven;
a thematic gate is a content decision for the Greywater authoring.
