TCC Dev phase plan: new Phase 7 (old-server ports)
Draft 2026-10-24 for Ed to revise. Ed decisions 2026-10-24: Fuel and EUP duty outfits are tcc_pd modules; vehicle QoL, HUD, civilian interaction, AI/world logic and lighting logic moved into tcc_pd. tcc_interact is dropped. Source: a review of the old TCC FiveM Server 01 and TCC Test FiveM Server 01 (the Server 02 backups were stock).

Put them inside the new Phase 7, not in a phase of their own. All five came from Server 01 (inferno-police-panic, inferno-fire-ems-pager, ShotSpotter, PoliceEMSActivity, Badger-Priorities), they are civic-service features, and they use the same Config.Modules framework. Four of them are small and build on code that already exists (Code 99 key, duty sessions, unit blips), so they become milestone 7.1, the first week's work. ShotSpotter (M) goes in 7.2 and the pager goes in 7.3 with the rest of Fire/EMS.
7.0 Module framework (Mon Oct 26, S)
config/modules.lua with Config.Modules = { Panic = { enabled = true, ... }, ... }, validated by the config validator.- F6 > Admin > Modules: list modules with toggles (saved in the DB, overriding config at runtime) and a status line.
- Doctor: module health and keybind conflicts. Tests: tests/modules_sim.lua.

Estimate
About 8 weeks of part-time work: 7.0-7.1 Oct 26-30, finishing around Dec 18, 2026 (one extra week for the moved-in modules and F6 menus). The callout library keeps going after that. Phase 8 (zones) starts after 7.2 if Ed wants to run them in parallel.
