SRD Magic Missile fires one missile +1 per two caster levels beyond 1st (max 5, 1d4+1 force, auto-hit); Scorching Ray fires one ray +1 per four levels beyond 3rd (max 3, 4d6 fire, ranged touch each). DamageEffect gains a ProjectileScaling spec (JSON 'projectiles'); _apply_damage_effect loops count_for(caster_level) projectiles, each rolling its own damage and (for a declared-projectile ray) its own ranged touch attack, with the target-drops-mid-sequence convention losing the rest. Updated magic_missile.json/scorching_ray.json, the golden lich transcript (CL 11 now fires 5 missiles, Tammara dies round 1: 43 damage), the scripted MM queues in test_spells/test_conformance_spellflow, added tests/test_multi_projectile.py, and the README.

CRB Magic - Aiming a Spell: a line 'starts from any corner of your square', so the caster's own square is outside the template (SRD Lightning Bolt: 'The bolt begins at your fingertips' - it leaves the square, it does not fill it). line_cells now drops the origin and takes the length_cells squares beyond it; a degenerate aim affects nothing. Updated the Lightning Bolt and Line Sparks tests (caster no longer caught) and the README.

SRD-verified area templates: Burning Hands 15-ft cone, Color Spray 15-ft cone, Fear 30-ft cone, Flurry of Snowballs 30-ft cone, Lightning Bolt 120-ft line (all converted from single-target/burst approximations to proper AreaEffect shapes); Fireball 20-ft burst, Sound Burst 10-ft spread, Sleep 10-ft burst, Web 20-ft spread kept. Close-range spells note the 15/30-ft RAW ranges as an approximation in their descriptions. README: cone/scaling limitations moved out of the limitations list, new area-shape + caster-level scaling rules documented, areas.py added to the architecture.

DamageEffect gains optional scaling (1dX per N levels, capped) and scaling_flat (+X per N levels, capped) specs; effective_formula resolves them against the caster's level at cast time, so scaled dice flow through crits, energy resistance and metamagic like the base formula (CRB Magic - Caster Level). Loader rejects mismatched die types. Data: Fireball/Lightning Bolt 1d6/lvl max 10d6, Burning Hands 1d4/lvl max 5d4, Shocking Grasp 1d6/lvl max 5d6, Inflict Light Wounds +1/lvl max +5 (SRD-verified). Cure Light Wounds stays flat: its golden transcript pins 1d8+1 and HealEffect scaling is out of scope.

PF1e (SRD spells/fear.md): creatures become panicked unless they succeed on a Will save - the JSON applied frightened instead. Condition fixed to panicked. The shaken-for-1-round on a successful save needs partial-save support for conditions and the 30-ft cone needs a cone template, neither of which the engine has; both documented in README as out of scope rather than built.

PF1e (SRD spells/bleed.md): "Saving Throw Will negates" and the target takes 1 point of damage per round. Two divergences: the JSON declared a Fortitude save, and the bleeding condition never set the engine's bleed_damage field, so the spell was a no-op. Bleed now saves Will; _apply_condition_effect sets bleed_damage = 1 when a spell applies bleeding, and _decrement_durations lands the final tick as the last bleeding condition expires before clearing the field (heal-path clearing already existed in _stop_bleeding). README updated.

PF1e (SRD spells/sound-burst.md): "Every creature in the area takes 1d8 points of sonic damage and must succeed on a Fortitude save to avoid being stunned for 1 round" — the Fortitude partial negates the stun only, never the dice. The damage component declared half_on_save: true, halving the sonic damage on a successful save. DamageEffect gains a save_negates flag (default True, existing behavior unchanged); sound_burst.json declares half_on_save: false + save_negates: false so the 1d8 is full regardless while the condition keeps save_negates. README updated.

SpellSpec gains a cast_time field (seven budget codes; the JSON loader
also accepts RAW phrasings like "1 round" or "1 minute"). The pure
budget filters take a CastTimeResolver so a cast_spell occupies the slot
its casting time maps to: standard->standard, swift->swift (competing
with deed/inspire courage and dropped by a consumed immediate),
immediate/free->free, full_round and one_round->full_round (one_round
clamped: resolved end-of-turn, documented approximation), long->dropped
before the budget filter with the new downgraded:cast_time reason. The
engine binds its registry lookup via _cast_time_of (unknown names fall
back to standard, keeping transcripts byte-identical);
_choose_spell_action never selects long casts; the staggered filter now
drops full-round casts and spell_combat via the effective slot
(_FULL_ROUND_KINDS becomes dead and is deleted). Summon Monster I/II are
the only data spells marked 1 round. Metamagic full-round casting for
spontaneous casters is out of scope (future hook documented in
_cast_time_of).
