P2 L2: AtelPhaseRotationAdapter (offline byte-local writer) + OperationPreview (consumable 3-layer diff) + source/IDA validation

Core/Writers/AtelPhaseRotationAdapter.cs (atel-recipe-phase-rotation, registered in catalog, 10 tests): applies AiPhaseRotationRecipe.Apply (real API, in-memory) over the AiFile sliced from the monster bin; WHOLE-bin hash precondition via ValidateMonsterBinHash (mismatch → throw before touching staging); pre-validation CodeWalkClosedExactly; triple post-validation (CodeWalkClosedExactly + UnknownOpcodes == 0 + RoundTripsByteIdentical); re-insertion via SpliceAiFileIntoMonsterGrow (real codec API) with re-slice verification; allowlist mirroring the real recipe shape (BattleStart/AfterAnyValidTurn triggers blocked — honest Class B/grow); ComputeDryRunDiff (3 layers on sliced AiFiles). Validated on real fixtures: m001 (5 vars + 2 entrypoints) applies; m000 (0 vars) honestly rejects.
Core/OperationPreview.cs (5 tests): OperationPreview/FilePreviewSummary — 3-layer diff (bytes/disassembly/semantics) exposed PER FILE, null-safe provider (a failure on one file never kills the preview); BuildFromPlan uses the same staging convention as the executor (post-stage preview = exactly what would be promoted). Full e2e test: EditSession → OperationPlan → OperationExecutorV2 → ReceiptBuilder → output carrying the edit (CostMp=7) — simulate→review→apply→receipt works end-to-end on the real Core.
docs/ai/P2_VALIDACAO_SOURCE_2026-07-31.md (source/IDA validation): the game loads the WHOLE monster bin and resolves partitions by fixed header offsets (FFX_Battle_LoadMonsterFilesIntoMemoryChr @0x783730, InstallMonsterFileSectionPointers @0x783BB0 — pointer-trust, no runtime hash) → whole-bin hash precondition confirmed correct; ATEL dispatch in IDA (FFX_Atel_InterpretWorkerOpcodes @0x864180, DispatchNativeCall @0x877720, Battle table @0xC42618); opcodes 0xAE/0x9F/0xA0/0xB5/0xD8 corpus-proven; RT0 gate validates structural round-trip (not in-game behavior — RT2 still pending by design); ffx-reconstructed battle is stub-level (runtime truth lives in the IDA docs).
Baseline: 223/223 PASS (207 → 223). ### MINOR

`--phase-rotation-rt0` gate fix (stale shape check) + integration into `offline_ci.ps1`

RuntimeTools/AiScriptLab/Program.cs (PhaseRotationRt0): the shape check expected D8 0x700B (PerformCommand) in the appended block, but AiPhaseRotationWriter emits D8 0x705A (ForcePerformCommand — CommandCallFor) in the current recipe → queued=False on 319/319 corpus entries (last documented run was v2.85.x, before the switch). Fixed to 0x705A and renamed hasForcedPerform. Methodical diagnosis: apply/validator/splice already passed 319/319; the only false flag was queued (identical across all 319 failures via --json).
RuntimeTools/offline_ci.ps1: --phase-rotation-rt0 gate added to the AiScriptLab section — closes the Goal-4 "family RT0 gate before Build" requirement, which existed in AiScriptLab but was not wired into the official CI.
Result: --phase-rotation-rt0 PASS (recipe apply 319/319, validator 319/319, splice 319/319, shape check 319/319, var1 store 300/300). offline_ci: 1 remaining pre-existing unrelated FAIL — BattleCompanionActivationLab (mcyt00_21 drift sentinel: the FFX Extracted corpus is back to vanilla — slot0=m213, formation 213/37/37 — while the sentinel documents the Arena+ lane Dark Aeons 334/335/336 variant; pending decision: restore the Arena+ artifact, update the sentinel, or accept the documented drift).
Baseline: 223/223 PASS (suite unchanged; fix is tooling-gate only). ### MINOR ### MINOR
