0090 — Faction reputation is emergent-only

Status

Folded into FEATURES/gameplay/factions-and-teams.md (2026-06-21). Supersedes ADR-0077 (faction mission completion). Reaffirms ADR-0032. Decided that faction reputation moves exclusively through the emergent trigger surface — it does not move via missions — and that any code-side FactionMission model or mission API endpoints are vestigial and not canonical. (re-verified 2026-08-06)

Context

Arbitrated whether faction reputation moves via mission completion (the mechanic specified by the now-superseded ADR-0077) or exclusively through the emergent trigger surface established by ADR-0032.

Folded into FEATURES/gameplay/factions-and-teams.md — the emergent-only rule and the #reputation-triggers trigger surface now live in that doc's prose. This record is retained for decision history per the append-only ADR policy.
