+# Milestones at a glance
+
+This is the condensed milestone history. The [current implementation](CURRENT_IMPLEMENTATION.md)
+is authoritative for what the latest development build does; older acceptance
+and audit files remain available as dated evidence, not competing current
+instructions. [Gitea milestones](https://truenas-scale.tail180fb1.ts.net:8443/dnorberg/rivencraft/milestones)
+hold the live issue status.
+
+## 1 — Bootstrap (complete)
+
+Established the NeoForge 1.21.1/Java 21 project, mod identity, registries,
+assets, build, and first automated checks. The port deliberately shares
+Mystcraft's concepts while maintaining its own modern package and data model.
+See [porting principles](PORTING.md) and [asset provenance](ASSET_PROVENANCE.md).
+
+## 2 — Books and linking (complete)
+
+Introduced persistent Linking and Descriptive Books, conversion of vanilla
+Lecterns into Book Stands, named books and Ages, safe travel, destination
+previews, and a configurable Return Link policy. Later milestones refined
+renderer selection and portal travel. See [preview compatibility](PREVIEW_COMPATIBILITY.md).
+
+## 3 — Ages (complete)
+
+Added persistent runtime dimensions, deterministic random Age traits,
+name-derived unique dimension folders, terrain/biome choices, spawn recovery,
+and Age lifecycle commands. See [Age administration](AGES.md),
+[runtime profiles](AGE_PROFILES.md), and [random weights](RANDOM_AGE_WEIGHTS.md).
+
+## 4 — Writing system (complete)
+
+Introduced Symbol Pages, Link Panels, Notebooks, the Writing Desk, Book Binder,
+and Ink Mixer. Writing order and unknown symbol references persist instead of
+being inferred from UI text. See [writing data](WRITING_DATA.md),
+[descriptive-book presentation](DESCRIPTIVE_BOOK_PRESENTATION.md), and
+[Ink Mixer audit](INK_MIXER_MODIFIER_AUDIT.md).
+
+## 5 — Age grammar (complete for the supported subset)
+
+Compiled supported pages into frozen Age plans: terrain, biome distribution,
+environment, features, block/fluid materials, structures, crystals, and
+fissures. Added optional TerraBlender and Serene Seasons adapters. This was
+not a claim of complete Legacy grammar parity. See [M5 acceptance](MILESTONE_5_ACCEPTANCE.md),
+[Legacy grammar audit](LEGACY_AGE_GRAMMAR_AUDIT.md),
+[symbol schema](SYMBOL_SEMANTICS.md), [TerraBlender](TERRABLENDER_COMPATIBILITY.md),
+and [Serene Seasons](SERENE_SEASONS_COMPATIBILITY.md).
+
+## 6 — Instability (complete)
+
+Added authored and live block-abundance scoring, frozen provider plans,
+operator diagnostics, bounded status effects, decay, lightning, explosions,
+meteors, burning, and erosion. Safety budgets are deliberate modern
+adaptations. See [M6 acceptance](MILESTONE_6_ACCEPTANCE.md),
+[Legacy instability audit](LEGACY_INSTABILITY_AUDIT.md), and
+[runtime policy](INSTABILITY_RUNTIME.md).
+
+## 7 — Structures and polish (in progress)
+
+Added Legacy-layout Age libraries, page-bearing stands, crystal portals and
+receptacles, the handheld dropped-book entity, data-driven recipes,
+advancements, asset/audio polish, optional Ruins, compatibility updates, and
+expanded sky/glyph pages. Issue #83 covers regression, migration, and document
+consolidation; issue #84 is the final milestone acceptance gate. See the
+[M7 Legacy audit](LEGACY_M7_AUDIT.md), [M7 regression matrix](MILESTONE_7_REGRESSION.md),
+and [M7 compatibility review](MILESTONE_7_COMPATIBILITY_REVIEW.md).
