Retroactively author 15 grouped detail docs covering the backend functional (feat/fix) commits made before the change ledger was established (fad48ff), closing the ledger's detail-doc axis for the pre-convention history. Each doc groups a feature's constituent commits, lists their SHAs with subjects, and carries a backfill note stating it was reconstructed from git history on 2026-07-07 and not independently re-verified (current tree green at9911b8c). Add a Detail docs section to INDEX.md linking every detail doc (the 6 existing + 15 backfill) to the commit(s) it covers, so a doc is findable from the index without a column on the auto-generated ledger table. Catch the table up with the missing9911b8crow. Scope: backend (Go/Java/K8s) only, per the ledger's stated convention that frontend/panel commits are the collaborator's UI work; non-functional commits (docs/style/chore/refactor) keep their table row without a dedicated detail doc.

What it did
Stood up the always-on authentication gate: reserved, reaper-exempt login/lobby
MinecraftServers provisioned by setup, an HTTP readiness path for the RCON-less LOOHP/Limbo
loader (which reports "started" only after the first tick), and the felis-limbo plugin that
runs the whole onboarding inside Limbo before transferring an admitted player to the
lobby. A fresh connection always lands on the login gate, never a user backend, so
authentication is always in front.
Why
The spec requires that a player authenticate before reaching any real server. That needs a purpose-built always-on front server (Limbo) that speaks to the internal API — hence the login-only service-token injection (keyed to the reserved name so it can never reach a user pod) and the HTTP readiness knob for a loader that has no RCON.
Backfill note. Reconstructed 2026-07-07 from the commit history. The Go layer (config/naming/readiness/operator env/platform) was unit-tested at each commit; the felis-limbo plugin is Java verified against a real Limbo jar via podman (#65), and the images carry a real build+boot check (#63, limbo
/healthz200 on 25565). Not independently re-verified for this doc; current tree green at9911b8c.
