- A new server goes on to the preview core without compiling any module
(recommended modules are declined once; modules come from the Modules page).
- Choosing a server with the classic core makes a modular copy next to it:
every acore_* database (read from the running database, or from a private
copy of the stopped data files opened by the new server's own mysqld),
module configs and realm profiles, ports and console login. The old server
is only read. The copy then takes the preview core with the modules the old
server had switched on.
- Installs and the preview update run on unused ports, so a server running on
the shipped ports (the old one, or any other) no longer stops them; the
schema check after "Preparing database" used the shipped port before.
- Dungeon Clear is part of SQUID's Playerbots: no card of its own (it said
"Always on" while SQUID was off), switched with SQUID, settings on the SQUID card.
E2E (examples/preview_bare_and_copy_e2e, disposable servers, another server
running on the shipped ports): fresh install committed with no plugins and a
clean boot report; copy of a stopped and of a running classic server: data
identical, old server's files byte-for-byte unchanged, Content Scaling and
Companions built on the copy, preview core committed.

Verified in the native window against a disposable fixture: import writes only
<folder>.manager + registry; start surfaces a human 'database update required'
message; stop returns to Offline. Live install untouched throughout.
