Adrian's Phase 8 answers (2026-11-03): Cobblemon tasks from Cobblemon Quests
Reloaded; JEI gets the Cobblemon Info for REI/JEI/EMI add-on, its spawn info
checked against the pack, plus our own pages; no quest rewards; quests
generated from docs/quests.yaml with in-game node moves read back.
- Cobblemon Quests Reloaded 2.0.2+1.8 (CF only, CC-BY-NC-4.0): declares
Cobblemon 1.8+ and FTB Quests 2101+; adds cobblemon_tasks:cobblemon_task.
Its bundled MongoDB client is an optional storage backend, off by default.
- Cobblemon Info for REI/JEI/EMI 2.32.14 (MIT, both sides): reads the live
spawn pool, so it shows the zone pools' species, levels and rarity; it lists
biomes, not zones (our pages will add the zone). Without it on the server a
client falls back to Cobblemon's own spawn files.
- crosslink.py found the same Cobblebase and Cobblemon HMs files on CF.
- Self-tests quests_have_cobblemon_tasks and jei_addon_shows_island_spawns
(every entry the add-on shows is one of the pack's, at the zone's levels,
none missing). Smoke test, self-tests and the island check pass.
- Docs: design.md Phase 8 section and plan, checklists/phase-8.md,
addon-status.md, licenses.md.

Adrian (2026-10-30): Cobblebase's skills stay in but gated behind
progression, power from an existing mod (Poke Power) also gated,
evolution stones as ores fine for now, balance fine and configurable.
Progression is the zones whose Alpha guardian a player helped beat
(Progress saved data; a guardian win records it and lists the unlocks).
The gate table is data (progression_gates/base.json): each of
Cobblebase's 44 skills needs a zone (or none), the Power Block needs the
Verdant Jungle. The companion mod wraps every Cobblebase skill executor
in a gate by reflection; a skill missing from the table stays off.
Operator command /cobblesurvival progress. Cobblebase's and Poke Power's
configs ship in the pack. Self-tests: gate coverage, a locked skill only
runs after its guardian, the Power Block waits for the Jungle guardian,
a guardian win counts as progress.
