Three dead controls on the customization screen:
- Skin tone slider did nothing: neither the visualizer nor AvatarSystem
ever read loadout.skin_tone. Added AvatarLoader.apply_skin_tone() -- it
retints the base body's skin surfaces (matched by the placeholder skin
albedo, i.e. head + arms) -- and both build paths call it. Slider now
maps across a deep-to-pale skin range.
- "Cyber Head" did nothing: its catalog entry was type "body_part", which
load_attachment() rejects, and the placeholder body is one mesh so there
was nothing to hide either. Retyped it as an attachment -> it mounts on
the Head bone as a cyber visor.
- Mohawk / ponytail sat inside the head: the Head and HeadTop bones were
well below the visual head (bone at 1.58, head crown at ~2.03). Moved
Head to the head's centre and HeadTop just above the crown (mesh is
rigidly bound, so it doesn't move), and retuned the hair/visor/glasses
meshes and offsets to match.
Verified: avatar smoke 14/14 (source + pack), fresh-clone, 2p multiplayer,
and drove the real customization screen in rendered screenshots (equip
head+mohawk+mid skin, then ponytail+glasses+pale skin).

- api_client.gd: get_avatar_loadout() / save_avatar_loadout()
- main_menu.gd: on successful auth (fresh or session-restore), load the
catalog + fetch the saved loadout into AvatarSystem so the in-world
player renders as the player's avatar. Best-effort: a slow/failed prime
never gates getting in (UI goes authenticated first, prime runs after).
New "Customize Avatar" button (enabled only when signed in).
- avatar_system.gd: local-player convenience API -- ensure_catalog(),
set_loadout_from_dict() (from the backend's GET shape), has_loadout(),
build_current_avatar().
- player.gd: swaps the placeholder capsule for the assembled avatar
(feet-aligned to the capsule bottom) when a loadout is primed; silent
fallback to the capsule otherwise. Camera stays first-person for now
(third-person is a noted follow-up).
- avatar_visualizer.gd: rewrote it -- the old version referenced
AvatarLoader.SlotResult / load_slot() which never existed, so it didn't
compile and took avatar_customization_ui.gd down with it. Now a thin
wrapper over AvatarLoader for the preview.
- avatar_customization_ui.gd: seeds from the live loadout, saves through to
AvatarSystem + PUT /api/avatar/loadout (local file kept as fallback),
fixed a Camera3D.look_at() before-in-tree crash.
- scenes/avatar_customization.tscn rebuilt (old one used the Godot-3
`ViewportContainer` node type) + avatar_customization_screen.gd wrapper
that returns to the menu on close.
- smoke_test_avatar_in_world.gd: primed loadout -> game.tscn -> player
shows the assembled avatar, capsule hidden, rig + bone mounts present.
Verified: cold-cache smokes green (player 15/15, avatar_system 14/14,
avatar_in_world 10/10, main_menu_ui 13/13); against a live backend
main_menu_full_flow 12/12, main_menu_back 20/20, world_list 4/4,
enter_world 9/9, e2e 4/4; plus a manual register->default-loadout->
customize->save->re-fetch-persisted round trip.

Root cause: a stale .godot/global_script_class_cache.cfg was force-committed
to the repo (last regenerated before the avatar system merged), and Godot
does not rebuild the global class registry on a plain headless scene run --
only an editor scan / `--import` does. So every cross-file `class_name`
reference in the avatar module failed to resolve from a fresh clone, and the
AvatarSystem autoload failed to instantiate entirely.
- Untrack .godot/ and sandbox_probe/.godot/ (already in .gitignore; were
force-added during old WIP checkpoints)
- Reference sibling avatar scripts via preload() constants instead of their
global class_name, so the module parses independent of scan order. Keeps
the class_name declarations for editor/tooling use.
- avatar_loadout.gd's static from_json() factory self-references via a
preload const too (a script can't resolve its own class_name mid-compile
on a cold cache).
- smoke_test_avatar_system.gd: same preload treatment so it runs from a bare
`--script` invocation.
Verified from a wiped .godot/: main_menu.tscn and game.tscn boot with zero
script errors; smoke_test_avatar_system 10/10, smoke_test_player 15/15,
smoke_test_main_menu_ui 13/13, smoke_test_test_level PASS.
