The control socket reports itself unavailable on Windows, which has no
Unix domain sockets, and horizon-ctl uses the same stream type. A release
workflow builds the Windows client by hand; packaging/package.sh assembles
the binary, the resource preparation tool and PLAY.txt, without any of
Minecraft's files.

Horizon no longer fetches anything of Minecraft from Mojang's servers. The
client jar, version JSON, libraries and assets come from the user's official
launcher install, and the server jar is one they downloaded themselves
(--server-jar or HORIZON_SERVER_JAR). Every file is checked against checksums
pinned in research-lock.json, and the prepared .local/ layout is byte-identical
to the old downloads, so the harnesses and the native client are unchanged.
CI keeps the offline checks on GitHub's runners; the vanilla comparisons and
the mod build need the game, so they move to a manual job on a self-hosted
runner that holds the maintainer's own copy.

Everyday work is built and tested on Linux only. macOS and Windows jobs run only when started by hand (workflow_dispatch: gh workflow run <workflow> --ref <branch>), not on pull requests or pushes to main. Release workflows are unchanged.

Horizon now targets Linux and macOS only: remove the Windows CI runners and
wgpu's DX12 backend, and update the scope docs. The Ubuntu RTX 4080 desktop
becomes the first physical Linux target. tools/package_native_client.py bundles
a release build with its prepared resources and a launcher for playing on
another machine of the same platform.

Add registry-bound double-plant and moss placement, independent world RNG, survival ordering and post-write tick scheduling. Integrate named providers and feature graphs. Both pinned JARs matched 9,613,872 trace lines across 492,554 fixtures; workspace tests and all-target Clippy passed.
Add version-bound core, world data, geometry, generation and feature implementations with native client/server comparison tools and scoped evidence reports. Apply Horizon project branding.
Workspace tests, Clippy and 147 Python tests passed. Full 51-family survival and expanded provider comparisons are still running; complete gameplay parity and a playable Rust client remain unfinished. Private game artifacts and the isolated simple-block placement work are excluded.
