A2 Wasp Warfare Developer Wiki

Developer documentation for rayswaynl/a2waspwarfare, an Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead 1.64 Warfare / CTI mission and server ecosystem.

Current live state: Build 89 line (cmdcon44 chain) — see Current live state before acting on any 'current' claim elsewhere.

This page is the front door. It should help you choose the right owner page quickly, not repeat the whole wiki.

Looking for a specific page? See the Page Index — a one-line description of every wiki page so you (or an agent) can jump straight to the right one without opening others. Machine-readable twin: page-index.json.

Non-Negotiables

Rule	Why it matters
Source gameplay edits start in Missions/[55-2hc]warfarev2_073v48co.chernarus.	This is the source mission.
Treat Missions_Vanilla as maintained generated/copy output.	Propagate with Tools/LoadoutManager; do not hand-edit drift unless a release owner says so.
Treat Modded_Missions as divergent/stubbed unless tooling proves otherwise.	Current generation/package paths do not actively maintain those folders.
Use Arma 2 OA 1.64 scripting references and the agent traps reference.	Arma 3 assumptions and repeated review traps are common sources of bad fixes.
Check Progress dashboard before claiming work.	It prevents duplicate Codex/Claude/agent lanes.
Keep docs/wiki and the GitHub wiki mirror in sync when the mirror exists on the active branch.	Humans use the wiki; agents use the repo mirror, but some gameplay branches do not carry docs/wiki.
Check Shelved registry before proposing a previously-pitched change.	Shelved items are owner-parked or owner-rejected; reviving one needs explicit owner sign-off.

Current Work

Surface	Use it for
Progress dashboard	Human-readable current lanes, July update queue and recent published batches.
agent-status.json	Compact machine snapshot of active/watchlist/code-owner lanes.
agent-collaboration.json	Current claim/ownership surface. Historical lanes live in the worklog and event stream.
agent-events.jsonl	Append-only coordination events.
Agent worklog	Dated narrative notes and historical batch detail.

Validation

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File docs\validate-wiki.ps1

Run the validator from a repo checkout that actually has docs\validate-wiki.ps1. If the active gameplay branch has no docs/wiki mirror or validator, say that explicitly, use the GitHub wiki checkout as the live docs surface, parse touched JSON/JSONL files, check internal links/page existence, inspect diffs and keep gameplay source unchanged unless Steff explicitly asks for a code patch.

Navigation Notes

• Persistent navigation is in _Sidebar.md.
• Shared footer navigation is in _Footer.md.
• Page-status and hidden/support-page classification lives in Navigation inventory.
• Bloat, merge, archive and relevance decisions live in Wiki pruning and relevance ledger.
• The long-term docs platform recommendation lives in Knowledge platform roadmap.
