+# Mission 7 Development Progress - Session Summary
+
+**Date:** 2026-01-10
+**Session Goal:** Continue Mission 7 development based on planning documents
+
+## What Was Accomplished
+
+### ✓ Created All 9 Ink Dialogue Files
+1. `m07_opening_briefing.ink` - 4-way crisis choice with full briefing (12,672 bytes)
+2. `m07_director_morgan.ink` - Mission coordinator NPC (12,593 bytes)
+3. `m07_architect_comms.ink` - The Architect's taunts (13,075 bytes)
+4. `m07_phone_agent_0x99.ink` - Handler tactical support (13,705 bytes)
+5. `m07_crisis_infrastructure.ink` - Marcus Chen confrontation (20,501 bytes)
+6. `m07_crisis_data.ink` - Specter/Rachel dual antagonists (18,514 bytes)
+7. `m07_crisis_supply_chain.ink` - Adrian Cross recruitment (13,347 bytes)
+8. `m07_crisis_corporate.ink` - Victoria/Marcus confrontation (17,150 bytes)
+9. `m07_closing_debrief.ink` - End-of-mission debrief (15,214 bytes)
+
+**Total:** ~137KB of dialogue content, ~20,000+ words
+
+### ✓ Fixed Ink Compilation Errors (4 of 9 files)
+**Key Learnings from Mission 1:**
+- No `EXTERNAL` declarations needed
+- Each Ink file declares `VAR` for variables it needs
+- Game engine auto-syncs with `globalVariables` in scenario.json.erb
+
+**Successfully Compiled:**
+- ✓ `m07_opening_briefing.json` (45KB)
+- ✓ `m07_director_morgan.json` (25KB)
+- ✓ `m07_architect_comms.json` (20KB)
+- ✓ `m07_closing_debrief.json` (29KB)
+
+**Fixes Applied:**
+1. Changed `VAR flags_submitted = 0` to individual flag booleans
+2. Fixed nested conditional blocks using `- else:` pattern
+3. Consolidated multiple `{condition}` blocks into single if-else chain
+
+## ⚠ Remaining Work (5 files to compile)
+
+### Files Needing Fixes:
+1. **m07_phone_agent_0x99.ink** - 23 errors
+   - Missing `architect_info` knot (line 30)
+   - Nested conditionals with choices (lines 55-227)
+
+2. **m07_crisis_infrastructure.ink** - Unknown errors
+   - Likely nested conditional issues
+   - Marcus Chen confrontation paths
+
+3. **m07_crisis_data.ink** - Unknown errors
+   - Dual-timer complexity (exfiltration + disinformation)
+   - Specter/Rachel dual dialogue
+
+4. **m07_crisis_supply_chain.ink** - Unknown errors
+   - Adrian Cross recruitment conditionals
+
+5. **m07_crisis_corporate.ink** - Unknown errors
+   - Victoria/Marcus division mechanics
+
+### Estimated Time to Complete
+- Fix remaining 5 files: 2-3 hours
+- Test compilation: 30 minutes
+- Total: ~3 hours to fully playable state
