# Issue #16 Verification
## Status: ✅ ALREADY IMPLEMENTED ON MAIN
Issue #16 asked for the Paperclips-style dismantle endgame: The Unbuilding.
That implementation is already present on `main` in a fresh clone of `the-beacon`.
## Mainline evidence
Repo artifacts already present on `main`:
- `js/dismantle.js`
- `tests/dismantle.test.cjs`
- supporting integration points in `js/engine.js`, `js/render.js`, and `js/data.js`
What the current implementation already covers:
- an explicit Unbuilding offer path (`Dismantle.offerChoice()` / `renderChoice()`)
- staged panel removal over time
- stage-five resource-card dissolution sequence
- final beacon-only moment with the line: `That is enough.`
- save/load persistence for active dismantle progress
- defer / cooldown handling so the sequence can be postponed and later resumed
- render-loop protection so alignment UI does not wipe the Unbuilding prompt
## Verification run from fresh clone
Commands executed:
- `node --test tests/dismantle.test.cjs`
Observed result:
- the full dismantle regression suite passes on fresh `main`
- verified behaviors include:
- offering The Unbuilding instead of ending immediately
- preserving the prompt across `renderAlignment()`
- suppressing pending drift UI during active dismantle
- completing the stage-five resource dissolve sequence
- save/load restoration of partial progress
- defer cooldown persistence across reload
## Historical trail
The issue accumulated many closed unmerged attempts while the implementation was hardened across repeated passes.
Representative prior PR trail:
- PR #116
- PR #118
- PR #120
- PR #121
- PR #123
- PR #124
- PR #135
- PR #138
- PR #139
- PR #145
Those PRs show the long hardening history, but the important truth today is simpler: the dismantle sequence is already implemented on `main` and the tests pass.
## Why this should close the issue
Issue #16 is an atomic implementation issue, not a broad parent epic.
The requested feature exists on `main`, passes targeted verification, and does not need to be re-implemented again.
## Recommendation
Close issue #16 as already implemented on `main`.
This verification PR exists only to preserve a clean evidence trail and stop further duplicate implementation attempts.
