Phillip Tarrant a9d9eedb7e feat(currency): copper/silver/gold replace the coin

The three denominations are move tokens, not stored buckets — there is one
integer, so change-making never arises. The deserter is down to 47c: under a
silver, so he cannot cover a bed and the player sees it on turn one.

A parity test guards the code-side ratios against the content-side ids.

/content — authored game data

Cross-cutting authored writing, split by role in the data model (see the canon log spec in /docs):

roadmap.md The content track — Spine · Bill of Materials · Backlog. START HERE.
/lore      Authored Markdown bibles. THE SOURCE OF TRUTH; world/ + server/ are built from it.
/world     Static, ID-referenced game content. Identical every playthrough. BUILT.
  /locations   The map — towns, dungeons, points of interest (by id)
  /npcs        Per-NPC persona + knowledge lists (charter §6)
  /quests      Story skeletons and quest definitions (charter §17)
  /items       Item definitions — gear, consumables, cursed items (§7)
/server    Spoiler bodies + personas. API-only; excluded from the client export. BUILT.
/origins   Thin starting-state seeds. One per starting point. POC authors one.
/fallback  Authored degraded-DM text for every AI surface (charter §13)

roadmap.md governs what gets authored. Its rule: never author anything that is not in the Bill of Materials. Ideas that arrive go to its Backlog.

The three layers

world/ is static content the origin and the canon log reference by stable string id. Authored once; the same for every play.
origins/ are thin seeds — where the player starts, the situation, and disposition/quest/item/build seeds. Values, not maps. Increase replayability without multiplying authoring work.
fallback/ is not world content — it is degraded-DM prose (§13), consumed when the API is down. It sits outside world/ on purpose: nothing resolves an id against it.

At new-game, code constructs the runtime canon log from a chosen origin + world content + character creation. See /docs/canon-log.md (spec) — authored via the design under /docs/superpowers/specs.

Authoring notes

NPC knowledge lists are the whole design (§6). The only thing stopping the blacksmith from revealing the twist. Real authoring work — budget for it.
Fallback text is content, not error handling (§13). Every AI-dependent surface needs one before it ships.
Story skeletons are authored for now. AI-generated skeletons are v2 (§17).
