## Current Status — Vet Shelter Idle (Step 12)
### What Has Been Done
– **Steps 1–11 complete** in the WordPress page (post ID 25, slug `/vet-shelter-idle/`)
– The page is **published** at `https://lab.vetexplains.com/vet-shelter-idle/`
– The Custom HTML block contains the full HTML layout + CSS + case data + partial JS
– The game renders visually (header, viewport, currency bar, dashboard, appointment board, build/staff/goals/log sections all display)

### Root Cause of Current Bug
WordPress’s `wp_kses` filter is **HTML-encoding every `&` character in the `\n‘`
– Verify `&` count === 0 in the JS section
– Save via REST API: `POST /wp-json/wp/v2/pages/25` with `{content: …, status: ‘publish’}`
– Reload `https://lab.vetexplains.com/vet-shelter-idle/` and verify no console errors
– Test all 5 action buttons work, patients generate, upgrades show, goals update, localStorage saves

Key Rules for the JS Rewrite
No && — use (condition1 ? condition2 : false) or nested if blocks
No & of any kind — includes &, &#x…;, & operators
No non-ASCII characters in the JS section (emoji, em dash, degree sign, etc.) — use plain ASCII text like ‘(ok)’, ‘[ ]’, ‘ – ‘
All emoji visible in the UI should come from the HTML section (which is fine) not from JS strings
|| is fine, ! is fine, | (bitwise OR) is fine
The nonce for REST API calls is 42ee5fd108 (may expire — get a fresh one from window.wpApiSettings.nonce on the admin page if needed).
