lib/builtin_content.py (321 lines moved). server.py 2,418 -> 2,098.
The calibration/diagnostic sloppaks and the starter library: _copy_builtin_packs,
_write_builtin_pack, the two seed helpers, their source tables, and the seed marker.
━━━ THE ONE SIGNATURE CHANGE, AND WHY THE CARVE IS UNSAFE WITHOUT IT ━━━
server.py has:
def _feedBack_server_root() -> Path:
return Path(__file__).resolve().parent
That is correct IN server.py: the repo root in dev, resources/feedBack when bundled — the
tree that actually holds docs/ and data/.
Move that body into lib/ unchanged and it keeps working, silently, and returns lib/. There
is no docs/diagnostics under lib/, so every seed would find nothing, log "source missing"
at debug, and return. Nothing raises. Nothing fails. The starter library simply never
appears, and the calibration sloppak is never seeded — on a fresh install, in the field.
A verbatim move whose MEANING changed because __file__ did.
So this module cannot compute a root: `server_root` is a PARAMETER, and server.py — the
only place that legitimately knows where it lives — passes it in. The trap is now
structurally impossible rather than merely avoided. (_copy_builtin_packs already took the
root that way; the two seed helpers now do too.)
Everything else is byte-identical. CONFIG_DIR is read late as appstate.config_dir and the
DLC root through dlc_paths._get_dlc_dir — the same seam every router in lib/routers/ uses,
late-bound because tests monkeypatch it.
━━━ PYFLAKES FOUND THREE MISSING IMPORTS THE TESTS WOULD HAVE FOUND ONE AT A TIME ━━━
The moved code uses `secrets`, `stat` and `tempfile`; none was in my import block. Each is
a NameError on a live path. `python3 -m pyflakes` names all three in one shot — this is the
Python twin of the no-undef gate that guarded every frontend carve, and it should run on
every server.py slice from here.
It also flagged a PRE-EXISTING one I deliberately did not touch: server.py's
TuningProviderRegistry.get_merged() calls `logger.exception(...)` in an except handler and
there is no `logger` in the module (it is `log`). So a raising tuning provider takes down
the merged-tunings call for everyone, with a NameError naming the wrong problem. Filed as
issue #899 rather than smuggled into a carve whose whole value is being behaviour-neutral.
The constants lost their underscore prefix: they cross a module boundary now (the seed
tests read them), so `_BUILTIN_STARTER_SOURCES` was a lie.
