Issue dossier

The project page and listing differ between 30-plus and 35-plus CTF/puzzle wording and make high-level multiplayer/link-up/word-building claims. They do not publish final challenge inventory, spoilers policy, rules, score validation, pairing/transport protocol, range, player-data handling, threat model, privacy/security review, accessibility details, event support, or a stable behavior contract.

A linkable camp-impact record with badge context, severity, evidence confidence, and source notes.
