278410b413 Remove real-time timer from M4, replace with stage-based urgency 
Replace 30-minute countdown timer with narrative-driven urgency:
- Stage-based attack progression (5 stages)
- Visual/audio urgency indicators (SCADA status, radio chatter)
- No automatic failure from taking time
- Thoroughness rewarded with tactical advantages

Urgency created through:
- Narrative progression (attack stages advance)
- SCADA system status indicators (green -> yellow -> red)
- Robert Chen dialogue reflecting crisis state
- Operative radio chatter intensity
- Facility alarm states

Benefits:
- Removes time pressure frustration
- Allows exploration and investigation
- Rewards careful players
- Maintains narrative tension
- Player-driven pacing

Updated sections:
- Game Mechanics: timer -> escalating urgency
- Time Pressure System -> Escalating Urgency System
- UI Elements: timer display -> stage indicator
- Risk Mitigation: timer stress -> urgency balance
- Success Criteria: timer tension -> narrative urgency
- Next Steps: timer mechanics -> urgency progression

Combat and multi-system investigation remain core mechanics.

ac8e319560 Initialize Mission 4: Critical Failure 
Create M4 infrastructure defense mission initialization:
- Water treatment facility SCADA attack scenario
- ENTROPY Cell: Critical Mass
- SecGen: Vulnerability Analysis (Nmap/Nessus, distcc, sudo Baron)
- Estimated playtime: 60-80 minutes
- Difficulty: Intermediate (Tier 2)

New mechanics introduced:
- Hostile NPCs (first combat encounter)
- Item drops from defeated enemies
- Time-pressure objectives (30-min timer)
- Multi-system investigation

Educational focus:
- Cyber-Physical Systems (SCADA/ICS security)
- Security Operations (vulnerability scanning, threat hunting)
- Systems Security (privilege escalation)

Campaign connections:
- Cross-cell coordination (Critical Mass + Social Fabric)
- The Architect's infrastructure initiative
- Setup for Task Force Null (M5-10)

Mission represents transition from reconnaissance to active
crisis response with combat. First mission with time pressure
and hostile combatants.

Ready for Stage 1 development.

02e519e3fe Update Implementation Roadmap with Phase 0 requirements 
Add Phase 0: Reference Mission Examination (REQUIRED FIRST):
- Files to study (M1/M2 scenarios, schema)
- Critical patterns to extract (6 key patterns)
- Schema requirements checklist (13 requirements)
- ERB helper setup with usage notes
- Validation strategy (4 checkpoints)

Update time estimates:
- Add Phase 0: 2-3 hours
- Total: 70-105 hours (from 68-102)
- Note: Phase 0 saves 4-6 hours of rework

Update version to 2.0 with critical change notice
Emphasize Phase 0 prevents 40+ validation errors

Based on M3 experience: proper reference examination
essential for valid JSON on first attempt.

f5068ab6eb Update Stage 9 Quick Start Guide with critical improvements 
Add Step 0: Examine Reference Missions (REQUIRED FIRST):
- Extract VM launcher/flag station patterns from M1/M2
- Schema requirements checklist (mandatory fields)
- ERB helper functions reference
- Validation checkpoint requirements (4 checkpoints)

Enhance Common Pitfalls section:
- Encoding/JSON issues (Unicode, multi-line strings)
- Schema validation errors (wrong property names, types)
- VM/Flag integration issues (missing patterns)

Update time estimates to include Step 0 (2-3 hours)
Note: Step 0 saves 4-6 hours by preventing validation errors

Based on M3 experience: avoided 46 validation errors through
proper reference examination and schema awareness.

Version: 2.0 (from 1.0)
Status: Ready for use with all future missions

fe19f93c17 Add Stage 9 prompt improvements based on M3 experience 
Document critical improvements to Stage 9 prompts to reduce iterations:
- Add Step 0: Examine reference missions (M1/M2) before starting
- Schema requirements checklist (all required fields listed)
- Validation checkpoint requirements (validate incrementally)
- Common pitfalls to avoid (encoding, keyPins, object types)
- ERB helper function reference with examples
- Flag submission tasks pattern (explicit guidance)

Based on M3 development: avoided 46 validation errors that could
have been prevented with proper reference examination and schema
awareness. New approach should produce valid JSON on first attempt.
