📄 Description

Adds a field note for Black Myth: Wukong and folds two new gotchas into existing technique notes.

New: `knowledge/games/black-myth-wukong/reshade-depth-dead-end.md`

The load-bearing result is a negative one, recorded with pixel evidence:

ReShade 6.8.0 hooks the game's D3D12 cleanly and Denuvo does not block injection — dxgi.dll proxy,
D3D12CreateDevice and IDXGIFactory::CreateSwapChain redirected, swapchain R10G10B10A2_UNORM.
Generic Depth detects a D32S8 buffer at 1708x1068 — but the depth it reads is perfectly flat. With
both depth-copy options enabled and after a full restart, the depth half of DisplayDepth.fx is a single
colour across all 2,048,000 pixels. Depth 1.0 everywhere = empty, not faint. So depth-correct compositing
is not reachable through ReShade on this game; the remaining options are a custom add-on or a present hook,
both net-new with no prior art.
Recon worth having: build 21393610, UE 5.0 (project=b1), IoStore off, 21 .sig files, D3D12-only,
728 MB stripped exe with plugins statically linked, and the game rendering at 1708x1068 while the
swapchain is 2560x1600 (any composite has to match the low internal resolution).
The UnrealJS false lead, written up with the one-line falsification test, because the trail looks
genuinely promising: the log contains JavascriptCmd: Unreal.js started. V8 7.7.299 and Engine.ini
lists b1/Plugins/UnrealJS. It is a dead end — JavascriptCmd is a log category, the banner survives
NO_LOGGING so it proves nothing, and the line appears exactly once in the log and never again.
Injection routes the community has actually proven: B1CSharpLoader (version.dll -> Mono -> C# with
Harmony), RE-UE4SS v3.0.1 with its upstream Wukong custom game config, and the WukongMP SDK.

Extended: `knowledge/techniques/driving-real-games-safely.md`

Click coordinates are DPI-virtualised while screenshots are physical pixels (150%-scaled 2560x1600 panel,
logical screen 1707x1067) — clicks drifted by a constant ~44 px until the scale factor was applied.
um win ps dies on a Chinese-locale Windows with a GBK UnicodeDecodeError; PYTHONUTF8=1 fixes it.

Extended: `knowledge/techniques/oracles-how-agents-know-a-mod-works.md`

A screenshot oracle that froze and kept answering: three captures minutes apart were byte-identical
while the process was clearly rendering. A frozen oracle inverts conclusions — here it would have said
"the shader is not running" when the truth was "the shader runs fine and the depth it reads is empty".
Includes how to detect it, and the reverse trap (a legitimately static scene).

Verification

um kb check --index -> PASS: 8 notes checked
um publish check -> PASS: 290 files, 0 failures, 0 warnings

What is NOT verified

Everything was measured at the main menu, because a fresh install has no save. Gameplay is untested;
that is the first thing the next agent should check.
Minecraft was never installed, so the guest half is entirely untested.
No attempt was made to bypass Denuvo, anti-cheat or ownership checks, and the note records only that
injection worked alongside them.
